A battle is waged In the deep of me, An epic struggle 'Tween sand and sea, Where one resists The other, so free... Yet, no loss or gain Marks Eternity.
If all things are means, Then means are the end, Our pleasures and pains But a river's bend; So flow, flow on my soul, Let go . . . once again.
A great poem, a timeless stanza of thought, a true writing that stirs and swells the heart; what are these precious forms save a moment of Love plucked from Time to stand as testimony to a perfection briefly remembered as the living foundation of all things. The poet is presented the proposal, the moment where the Great Pain beckons him to marriage. He is awakened from a slumber to answer th...
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...
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...
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..
Linger in the great mystery of moments untold. Wait there for the unspeakable invitation to live there.

And the light that reveals our consciousness hurts the eyes at first; The land of "one and done" that we are all trying to reach exists only in imagination. There is no such place. It is a mythological land. This is what mechanical religion and false teachers try to sell to you; If you don’t see for yourself the truth of something, you do not know the truth...

Topics covered: Spiritual parables and symbols are intended to convey celestial principles that words cannot explain; One of the chief deceptions that we fall for is that something is missing from our lives, and that we will be able to acquire it in a time to come.

Topics covered: "It is wise to seek immortality because time defeats all other ambitions." -- Vernon Howard; The attempt to avoid suffering is an ambition. The attempt to avoid the experience of yourself is an ambition; Our daily wishes are rooted in the imagination of a time to come in which we will not be in the pain that we are in now; What human beings presently call "freedom" involves a time to come...

Topics covered: The parable of the Prodigal Son is a story about our never-ending relationship with the Divine Creator. There is no end to that journey; We are not moving through time and events. Time and events are moving through us, and it all takes place first of all within consciousness. Events do not unfold outside of you; The Kingdom of Heaven is not found outside of you...

Topics covered: If you still have an enemy of any kind, then up until now you have spent your life suffering uselessly; No moment in time repeats itself. Creation is eternally new. Then the question to ask ourselves is: how do we find ourselves stuck in what seems to be the same painful situations over and over again?; Yesterday's pain does not exist today without the consciousness that carries it over...
