Set Yourself Free

There is a way of perceiving the world around us that enables us to be free at any time, at any place, and under any circumstance. Understanding bondage is the first step to freedom. Feeling bound by conditions and circumstances is the inevitable consequence of wanting to be free. Becoming a slave... Sign in to see full entry.

All or Nothing

The true nature of love is wholeness and completion. It exists not in the purveyance of ideas, for the idea implies a division between the thinker and his thought. Picking and choosing who we love diminishes the nature of love, and replaces it with fear of loss. It is the holding back of oneself... Sign in to see full entry.

What Seems to be the Problem

Finding a solution to a problem will provide relief and temporary peace; and, yet the same problem will invariably crop up in another form with another name and another face attached to it. There is a common denominator to all of mankind's problems, which causes them to appear equally... Sign in to see full entry.

You Are a Teacher

Each of us teaches what we believe is true. That truth, however illusory it may be, is learned when it is given to relationship. We find the proof of what we think is there, which justifies the need to reinforce the belief it teaches. Anger teaches the belief that others are responsible for making...

In Time, All Things are Seen

Time is of the essence. It is the fount of wisdom, the source of self-knowledge, and a means of experiencing immortality. Use time to become, and it appears to hinder. What it gives is never enough, and its gifts contain the vision of death. Use time to be, and it gives what the giver sees. What he... Sign in to see full entry.

Step By Step

Life is about movement. We are either flowing or ebbing, waxing or waning. The journey contains the fruit of our harvest, which shows the intention of our action. Words alone cannot determine the direction. Even the kindest words can be delivered with the cruelest intention. Likewise, one's actions... Sign in to see full entry.

Happiness Is

Rejoice! Your deliverance is at hand. No longer shall the darkness you invited hold your fettered being. Take a closer look. Will you reconsider your reasons for wanting happiness? Is it not from bringing pain to the present moment? How can something be changed that exists only in the mind, as a... Sign in to see full entry.

Love is not Pity

Grief is a natural process of the self; and, yet the grieving process has something extraordinary to teach, if we take the time to listen. Do you cry for yourself or the other when you feel loss? Are you not ruing what you have no more, or what you believe might have been? Does this have anything to... Sign in to see full entry.
