We humans are amazingly self-focused (for survival) and because of that natural inclination, we tend to view the world around us as simply extensions of our own ‘humanness.’ That leads to interpreting/comprehending the world in which we all interact with certain proclivities; i.e., we anthropomorphize just about everything that we don’t truly understand—or in aContinue reading “A Loving God”

The Gray-Scale Zone
Over the last 25 years, I’ve been trained in many healing modalities—many techniques used to help facilitate a client’s progress during their own personal healing journey. In other words: I know ‘stuff.’ I can do ‘stuff.’ My more spiritual work began with the Japanese energy-therapy practice of REIKI. Then I received training in Karuna REIKIContinue reading “The Gray-Scale Zone”
“Context is Everything”
Just ran across an old Alan Watts audio called “Context is Everything” (Excerpt from the audio program and companion book, Just So: Money, Materialism, and the Ineffable, Intelligent Universe by Alan Watts – Context is Everything) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKm-oQVcm74 I mention it here because it further substantiates something I’d earlier written about in this blog on theContinue reading ““Context is Everything””
“You’re Not Crazy, You Are Psychic”
I do admit that seeing this title statement in my email box did make me chuckle. And after watching the latest horrors on the news this morning, that was a GOOD thing. Seriously, how do you know if you are “crazy” or not in a world that is itself far from being sane? Even theContinue reading ““You’re Not Crazy, You Are Psychic””
Expecting Sanity in an Insane World
Sometimes I do find humor in my own ‘arrogant humanness.’ In fact if I couldn’t laugh at myself and how my hamster-wheel mind turns, then there would be little to laugh about in this world. My closest group of friends, like the rest of the world around us, is undergoing their own set of personalContinue reading “Expecting Sanity in an Insane World”
Becoming the VOID
Saw the image above along with the title: “Black cat climbs into bed and basically becomes the VOID,” and thought, ‘Yes, we perceive the VOID as intense blackness—a nothingness that we cannot comprehend, but is it nothingness or are we incapable of defining the something that it truly is?’ My guess is the latter becauseContinue reading “Becoming the VOID”
Indomitable Spirit
“Here’s to the bridge-builders, the hand-holders, the light-bringers, those extraordinary souls wrapped in ordinary lives who quietly weave threads of humanity into an inhumane world. They are the unsung heroes in a world at war with itself. They are the whisperers of hope that peace is possible. Look for them in this present darkness. LightContinue reading “Indomitable Spirit”
YOU Are THE UNIVERSE
“You are the surface on which the universe encodes information… you give the universe the surface to grow and learn.” – Nassim Haramein The image above has been around awhile, but the thought is always hard to comprehend so it is worth repeating. YOU are the UNIVERSE expressing itself for a limited time through theContinue reading “YOU Are THE UNIVERSE”
The Door
Couldn’t choose between the two images, as they both reflect my present thoughts, so will post them both together because I think that’s where they need to be considered—together. I’ve previously elaborated on the KNOWN and the UNKNOWN (“Understanding Nothing”), so there is no point in trying to squeeze more from that thought; but whenContinue reading “The Door”
Weathering the Storm
I’ve resisted commenting prior on the disastrous situation in Ukraine because to do so would simply be to add one more useless opinion to airwaves overloaded with them, and would be as hopelessly ineffective as all the rest. But I do also recognize that there is something far greater happening here besides the obvious crueltyContinue reading “Weathering the Storm”
The “In-between”
I was writing in my journal this morning and mentioned something about sitting here in my recliner just “contemplating the mysteries of BIRTH/DEATH and whatever lies in-between” when I thought, yes, that “In-between” is exactly what makes the BIRTH/DEATH cycle a purposeful and cohesive closed-loop system. It gives meaning to why we are here doingContinue reading “The “In-between””
Beyond Prosaic Reality
“I believe that within the core of every human being dwells a yearning for the meaning that lies beyond the prosaic reality of everyday life. We reach out for evidence of something beyond the ordinary.” ~ Denise Linn Earthschool Harmony *** Love the image beside these words—the perspective juxtaposition of immediate foreground against theContinue reading “Beyond Prosaic Reality”
