Life is a game of sowing and reaping. It is a process of giving and receiving. What is reaped is determined by what is sown. How could it be the other way round? Yet, life appears to be kind to some, and harsh to others. If we believe that we are alone, and in a threatening environment, we will... Sign in to see full entry.

I Need Your Cooperation!
The soul's agenda is often different from the mind's agenda, and the body's agenda; but, the soul needs these instruments to experience the aspect of itself that it wishes to assimilate. Life is about growth. And we grow through experiences, which create opportunities for us. We may squander these... Sign in to see full entry.
A Message of Love
The messages we send can only be coming from one of two places: from our ego, which is fear; or, from the Source, which is God. The ego is the mind's identification with the body. Associated with the ego's belief system is using force to control others, giving in order to receive, and possessing in... Sign in to see full entry.

You Complete Me....
We are ever searching for things we cannot find. We look for love in others, and are often disappointed. We seek happiness in possessing, and find ourselves empty-handed. We demand peace through elaborate rules and procedures, which must be defended at the cost of peace. A profound spiritual law is... Sign in to see full entry.

The Ritual of Sacrifice
We have entered darkness willingly, with the hope of finding our way clear of ourselves. On some inner level, we realize that we must become nothing to enter the kingdom. God appears but as a distant shore, where the promise of everlasting life and peace exist. How do we close the chasm? Is it... Sign in to see full entry.

Father, I Know Not What I Do
Be thankful so little is asked of you. Be thankful that you are not asked to figure everything out, as if that were possible. Our limited perceptions are in place so that we may experience a single aspect of ourselves at a time, without any overlap. Our forgotten purposes are brilliant in their... Sign in to see full entry.

Intimate Relations
Relating to others always involves the self. There is no way to escape into another completely and abolish oneself in the process. How we relate, therefore, is a matter of choice. We make that choice in the moment, and meet the other with it. When we say we 'know' another, what do we know, other... Sign in to see full entry.

Non-Resistance
Who can oppose nothing? What can a man who lashes out at shadows in a dream accomplish, except to injure himself? The greatest teachers realize that to resist is to create amiss, and to teach ideas in lieu of consequences. No one can be frightened into wisdom. A man beaten at his own game cannot...

Whom Shall You Serve?
Spreading love in the world increases sanity among individuals, for the means of defense has been short-circuited. Fear and anger cannot exist without two agreeing that the illusion is real and the cause for attack. Serving God is the choice to stop choosing ideals and methods. Love has no design...
