Man, as God imagined, is as eternal in nature as is God's thought of him so being. The life of this eternal person is the Christ, whose Living Light is to this, our immortal soul, as is blood to our physical body. When a person has come to know a true love for the Christ, this love is more something he is held by, and not something that he holds of himself within himself. So that true...
And I saw a vision of a gleaming white castle with a narrow footpath leading up to its great white gates. This walkway -- extending out from the gates as far as the eye could see -- was so worn that it appeared to the eye as a kind of cut-mark several feet deep. And when I asked a nearby angel as to the nature of this Bright Place -- and why the path leading up to it was so well-worn, she repl...
We are, at our innermost core, instruments of the Divine... And the Divine is the Absolute: the total potential realms of all that is Light and Dark. We are unique creatures in the secret Essence of this unending expanse because not only are we the living instruments of all possible reflections along with their corresponding intonations, but we may know that we "sing " these colors; we may...
We must not fear these wild pulsations of hope-filled feelings too deep to hold... for they have an accord with themselves, and their own path to follow. These sometimes too strong stirrings of that unbearable wish for a compassion that can embrace all of creation must not be dampened simply because we don't understand the pressing of their presence in us. They are not asking us to know what...
When it comes to the possibility of spiritual rebirth, it isn't that God does not will this for all of his earth-clad children. Quite the contrary: In this world of ours the goodness of God's Will is always active through his Son. What nullifies the birth of this eternal Life within us is that we have yet to learn how to ask and receive it. What is freely offered to us goes unaccepted because...
Just as a shadow tells of the object that casts it, And that behind this object shines a light casting this shadow, So do the moving notes of any melody tell of the space through Which they pass. Within this space is our True Dwelling Place. This unknowable quality of space is the unseen pleasure In real music. By it we are whisked up and transported to our Native Realm, where Peac...
Here is a great, but unseen, psychological Truth that once realized sets us upon the true spiritual path leading to Real Love and its Perfect Freedom: What frightens us about others is what we want from them; and what we want (from others) is largely what we have imagined is in their power to either give to us, do to us, or withhold from us. And so, whether we live with the fear of our love...
Some take the high road. Some take the low road. Some take the road with friends and family. Others take it alone. Some travel with clowns and animals. Some take only walking shoes. Some take the road with guru and saint, While others take the road with drunks. Some walk the road so slowly as to stand still, Even as some sprint toward a finish line as if it's in sight. Some...
Anticipation is a special kind of awareness where one is united with the spirit of what comes prior to its arrival...
The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who passing over a certain ridge comes upon an unknown Mountain outside his country and there catches a glimpse of a valley within a valley..
We are creatures of the outside. We know as real only the movement from without to within; From hand to mouth, we exist. Yet, Real life is inside...out. The Christ is before the world. His Light precedes the letters that spell His name. His Life is to the thoughts and ideas about Him as is... The fusion of the sun to the light it generates. And when the inner Sun stirs... ...M...
While experience may serve as the path to self-knowledge, still it remains the lesser half of the path to self knowing.
