Spiritual Freedom

By 1 Comment

In our search for the seemingly elusive higher consciousness we find that no matter how far we've come, we learn how far we have yet to travel. Stumbling and falling along our journey often will cause pain to varying degrees. Many times we may feel grief because of the ending of a relationship, a financial burden requiring aggressive resolution, or just simply growing away from what you once knew. These things can be rather difficult, but they are needed for our continued progression as we are … [Read more...]

Pleasure-producing relationships

By 1 Comment
couple4

All relationships can be pleasurable when we know how to generate happiness regardless of what others say and do. Love and prosperity are self-generated, because we are love and prosperity. Because we are love, we do not and cannot get love from anyone, but when we are around people who like us, it is easier to be ourselves (which is love). Once we are Self-realized, we are in a constant state of love. We are being ourselves under any and all circumstances, even when others dislike or … [Read more...]

Compassion in Healing: Blessing what ails us

By 1 Comment
contemplate

In our zeal to clarify and heal ourselves, we sometimes forget that what we feel no longer suits us may indeed at one time have been a blessing to us. Releasing any energies or issues is dependent on our ability to truly come into a state of compassion toward whatever we are releasing. Coming into a state of compassion requires a lack of judgment towards ourselves, as well as what we are releasing, and any other people or circumstances related to the energies or issues we are releasing. When … [Read more...]

Finding Depth In Our Shallow Surroundings

By 8 Comments

We are slowly disappearing. It seems like every aspect of our existence is getting more and more shallow each year as we continue to forget our true selves. We move further away from truth as we desperately grasp at illusions to fill our artificial, inner voids. If you want proof of this, simply walk through any public place -- I'll use a grocery store as an example -- and begin to notice how distant we've become from each other. Eye contact is now taboo, and it's common to exchange hollow, … [Read more...]

Your birthright: a joyful sexuality

By Leave a Comment

Can you imagine what it would be like to have your sexuality be a source of joy and aliveness? To lovingly connect with a beloved with reverence, presence and delight? To have a vibrant sexual relationship with yourself that gives you more energy, vitality and zest for life? For many, these ideas are far from their reality. Often sexuality is burdened with shame, embarrassment, guilt and even pain, rather than being a source of pleasure and joy. I saw a Matt Groenig cartoon once that summed … [Read more...]

Our Psychic Experiences

By 1 Comment

Everyone encounters psychic experiences in their life, sooner or later. All of us are born with it. Developing this awareness does not mean we have to learn something totally new. We just have to open to our inner self and unfold the existing ability. Our consciousness and social circle allows us to recognize our talents or makes us suppress or even fear them as something "un-normal," "un-real" or scary. Our immediate family is the first to suppress our abilities in childhood. Based on their … [Read more...]

The Currency of Love

By 1 Comment
parents_child

I've often said I'd like to write a book and it would just contain one word: Love. That word says everything. In fact, it's worth more than a thousand words, and that's why it's so easy to misunderstand. For most people, it's easy to give love, it is easy to take love, but so many people rarely allow themselves to receive love. To open your heart, to let someone -- everyone -- love you, and to accept it into your heart, mind, body and soul is to receive love. It's especially hard for people … [Read more...]
