References to the akashic records, or the eternal Book of Life, date back to antiquity. References in the Old Testament and beyond give us the sense that there is a collective storehouse of knowledge that is written on the fabric of reality. While discussion of akashic records was commonplace in connection with the work of the late "Sleeping Prophet," Edgar Cayce, who tapped into this vast storehouse of information to help others, it has not been as prominent in recent times, even within the … [Read more...]
State of mind and state of heart
"There is no great genius without a mixture of madness." -- Aristotle Ron Howard's touching film, A Beautiful Mind, adapted from Sylvia Nasar's book of the same name, left more than a few moviegoers feeling a bit uncomfortable as they exited the once-twisted world of John Forbes Nash Jr., and returned to their own familiar existence. Nash, portrayed quite effectively by Russell Crowe in the film, was a Nobel Prize winner whose accomplishments in mathematics were without question on a plane … [Read more...]

Fire Lighted My Way Back Into The Present Moment
I experienced a near-tragic situation in my home recently that opened my eyes not only to the belief that my deceased parents continue to protect me and my family, but it also made me keenly aware of how fleeting life can be. It's been almost 10 years since I moved back into the house I grew up in. I decided to return to it a few months after the deaths of my parents who had been living there for over 40 years. My mother took her own life a few days before my father died, when she realized … [Read more...]

Activation and Focus
Once you've heard a didgeridoo, you never forget its vibrating, stimulating sound. A drone instrument of the ancients, purportedly originating in Arnhem Land (Australia) about 50,000 years ago, the didgeridoo is created from the limbs of the eucalyptus and gum trees that are naturally hollowed out by white ants and termites. No two sound the same. The instrument, which traditionally was only played by males, was used during ceremony and to communicating with different aboriginal clans. It is … [Read more...]

The Light
In The Four Agreements, Miguel Ruiz begins by telling the story of "a human just like you and me." This human is dreaming in a cave, and in his dream he sees himself going out, looking up into the starry night sky, and discovering something very wonderful. In the middle of that night, he realizes that all that space between the stars is not empty. It isn't dark, it isn't filled with some mysterious ether, but it is filled with light! You look at the night sky and it looks dark, but when you … [Read more...]
An Interview with God
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me." --Erma Bombek When asked to describe what God truly is, I am often left speechless. I think it is impossible for any of us to tell another human being what God is. All we can do is guess, take a stab in the dark and come up with the best-sounding answer we can in the moment. "God is energy, the fabric of all that is," I remember … [Read more...]
