WHAT I MUST TELL MYSELF I know this house, and this horizon, and this world I have made. I know this silence and the particular treasures and terrors of the way I try to belong to my work, my loved ones and my life. But I cannot know the world to which I am going. I have only this breath and this presence for my wings and they carry me in my body whatever I do from one hushed moment to another. I know my innocence and against all sense, I know something of my unknowing, and strangely I … Continue reading

Integrity is a quality of being. It means holding on at all times to your highest sense of truth and your own vision, whatever the cost may be. It consists in resonating with the most intimate fibre of your being which enjoins us not to withdraw one inch, whatever the prestige or authority of the person or institution opposing us. And this, not out of obstinacy, but because of the quiet courage of an inner voice which says: “This above all: to thine own self be true…” Integrity means following … Continue reading

Such blessings need to include the wild hurricane and tsunami as well as the gentle spring rain or sweet softly scented evening breeze, for if really everything is part of a wider plan for our good, this has to also include such dramatic events. As the great old spiritual goes, “He’s got the whole world in His hand… He’s got the wind and the waters in His hand…” – and all the rest too! We bless You, Infinite One, for the incredible intricacy of nature in its thousand and one manifestations. We … Continue reading

"There’s a practice I like called “Just like me.” You go to a public place and sit there and look around. Traffic jams are very good for this. You zero in on one person and say to yourself things such as “Just like me, this person doesn’t want to feel uncomfortable. Just like me, this person loses it sometimes. Just like me, this person doesn’t want to be disliked. Just like me, this person wants to have friends and intimacy.” "We can’t presume to know exactly what someone else is feeling and … Continue reading

At the end of one of the parables that Jesus left us, that of the Prodigal Son (Gospel of Luke), we find the most extraordinary spiritual affirmation that I have ever read in my entire life: “My child, you are always with me and all that I have is yours.” ALL that God is/has is also ours!!! We have not yet begun to truly fathom the depth of this absolutely amazing promise. ALL. Joy, abundance, prospective forgiveness, unconditional love, limitless peace…. In a passage by Joel Goldsmith on our … Continue reading

You have been telling people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered… Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in right relation? Where is your water? Know your garden. It is time to speak your truth. Create your community. Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for your leader. Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, “This could be … Continue reading

More and more, I have the feeling that an extraordinary cosmic force is pulling the strings of my life. ALL the strings, down to the smallest details. Because either this simply unheard of “show” called the universe is directed by a force, a cosmic intelligence that is simply amazing, or I give up guessing once and for all! And if this is true for the universe, it is also true for each individual life, yours as well as mine. And in this vision, the notion of chance is simply a philosophical … Continue reading
