This coming weekend, I will get to honor Passover with my fiancée, Liz, and some of our friends. We (mostly Liz) will host it. I love tradition and all that this tradition represents. I also feel that at every Passover Seder I have attended, there is a wonderful openness that is also celebrated…an openness to […]
Maintaining Your Spiritual Balance in an Unsteady World: Meditation
“One sincere person in meditation and prayer does more for the world than all the world leaders, humanitarians and politicians combined.” ~Paramahansa Yogananda The saints speak the truth. When we are able to take the time to meditate on God (or names of God), the words of the saints, and go within to that place […]
Maintaining Your Spiritual Balance in an Unsteady World: Prayer
There is an old saying posted on the walls in the meeting rooms of 12-Step Programs: Hit them with a prayer instead of a chair. Just because someone has different beliefs in politics, the environment, the social agenda, etc., doesn’t mean they are not as true to their own beliefs as you are to yours. […]
Spiritual Maintenance
If you don’t keep your car properly maintained, it starts to fall apart. It’s just a natural process. Relationships are the same. You have to continue to be present and, yes, give of yourself, if you want to have a happy relationship. Of course, it has to go both ways. The same goes for maintaining […]
Spiritual Recovery is Seeing Things Differently
After that Awakening…that Divine Experience…you will begin to see and experience things differently. That person who agitated you at one time is now seen in a different light. They may still be that same obnoxious person, but because of that connection Within to your Inner Self, they don’t rub you the wrong way, as they […]
A Divine Experience or Just Your Imagination?
I remember an old television commercial that had a catchy tag line: “Is it live or is it Memorex®?” Today, I have a simple request regarding a vision you might have had or, perhaps, a moment of unexpected, extreme clarity. Ask yourself this question: Was it your imagination…or was it a Divine Experience? A Divine […]
Spiritual Awakening, A Divine Experience
So many things can “bring us to our knees” so to speak. It can be the loss of a loved one, an illness, an addiction, loss of a job, disillusionment and painful experiences from the past…the list goes on and on. Usually, this goes on until there is an Awakening…a Divine Experience. The understanding that […]
Wisdom and Joy
Wisdom is a natural part of going within and rediscovering your Inner Self. I am not necessarily speaking of textbook knowledge. The knowledge I am speaking of is the knowledge of within, making use of your intuition. A knowing and assurance will come into your life that was not there before. Joy will be abundant. […]
Love and Peace
By continuously practicing going within to your Inner Self through the practice of prayer, practicing the Presence and meditation, one begins to walk with Love, Peace, Wisdom and Joy in their life, more and more. You will begin to Love others that at one time might have repelled you. The love I speak of is […]
Communion
So how does one commune with Inner Self? Prayer, Practicing the Presence, and Meditation are some of the ways. Prayer is a very personal devotion for all of us. In my case, I’ll simply say it is a way of communicating directly with either the Duality or Non Duality of God/Spirit/Inner Self. Practicing the Presence […]
