Evidently Savonn is in a more expressive philosophical phase lately that aligns closely to my own beliefs. I’ve been following him for a few years, but he hadn’t previously shared these sentiments quite as eloquently as he is doing so currently. And because he is saying it all so well and providing another perspective beyondContinue reading “The Power Is Within You”

Shedding the Costume
Lots of pure truth in this statement below. He also offers ‘spiritual readings’ if you are interested. “…Before we are our bodies and constructs we adhere to and live from, we are energy first. We are pieces of God incarnated into a body. When you accept this as truth and live from this… you canContinue reading “Shedding the Costume”
Small Victories
Hadn’t thought about it much until this morning when noting my own small victory that in itself seemed nearly insignificant until I compared it to what had become a too frequent occurrence to ignore. We all have these inconspicuous ‘small victories’ daily but we are usually too focused on the day’s larger issues and requirementsContinue reading “Small Victories”
Relearning
The new literacy? Maybe in a ‘retraining for a new vocation’ sense, but to ‘learn, unlearn, and relearn’ are actually personal survival skills developed over the years as one faces every new dawn while striving to see the sun peacefully setting at that same day’s end. We all know that life is tough for thoseContinue reading “Relearning”
“Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung
I’ve been a long-time fan of Carl Gustav Jung after reading his autobiography, Memories, Dreams, Reflections. So basically here I’m just passing along info sources and helping others to see that ‘beliefs’ in general are important to how we think of ourselves and consider our purpose in the world, or even more so in howContinue reading ““Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung”
The Pathless Land
It’s been decades since I last read Jiddu Krishnamurti’s books, but they are still around and well worth perusing. J. Krishnamurti was an astute and interesting soul. Discovered at adolescence in south India by the occultist Charles Webster Leadbeater of The Theosophical Society who upon seeing him sitting on a bench near their compound, recognizedContinue reading “The Pathless Land”
When the Music Died
“American Pie,” Don McLean’s song of ‘innocence lost,’ covers an insane decade of ‘coming of age’ in the 1960’s and early 70’s. It was a catchy dirge about busted illusions and the harshness of life beyond its normal performance stage. Shocked with the deaths of Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and The Big Bopper in oneContinue reading “When the Music Died”
Listen to the Clouds and the Wind
For those of us living in this aggravated, hustling-bustling world, just BEING is hard to do. We almost feel guilty when we are not DOING something constructive. I know at times I do. But I remind myself that my presence here is not dependent on how productive I can be. Rather it is dependent onContinue reading “Listen to the Clouds and the Wind”
The NOW
“If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.” – Eckhart Tolle *** You know it’s hard to be a grownup. So many responsibilities—so many choices—so muchContinue reading “The NOW”
Mastering Oneself
“If I accept the fact that my relationships are here to make me conscious instead of happy, then my relationships become a wonderful self-mastery tool that keeps realigning me with my higher purpose for living.” ~ Eckhart Tolle (@ Earthschool Harmony) Eckhart has evidently been reading my personal journal since I keep writing about self-masteryContinue reading “Mastering Oneself”
Seeing with the BIG Eye
“The old paradigm of birth to death represents an outdated concept that is woefully inadequate in defining the unfolding reality of expanded awareness. Materialist science is at the end of its days as most scientists are changing their views. The old concepts are soon to be relegated to the same dust bin as ‘the earthContinue reading “Seeing with the BIG Eye”
Becoming Someone Else
“When we can’t stop thinking about our problems, our mind and life merge. We become lost in the illusion of the dream. We could call this a ‘rut,’ but it goes much deeper than that. Along with our actions, our attitudes and feelings become repetitive. And we form the habit of being ourselves. To changeContinue reading “Becoming Someone Else”
