Love is effortless attention. In remembering the Divine, in that recollection of the truth of ourselves, we bring to the forefront of our heart and mind an all-encompassing Presence that cannot punish itself, or any other...
Part 1: Look behind and beyond all that unfolds in creation, and therein you will see... an eternal Source, the seed of all that flowers in passing time. Look behind and beyond yourself, and therein you will see ... a Divine Light whose timeless Life is the source and seed of your soul. Part 2: I am in you...
The perfection of each and every moment is realized by seeing each and every moment perfectly...
Awareness of the moment is our consciousness of it.
