Part 1

Whenever you make someone else's karma your own, you'll always blame them for it.

Part 2

An incomplete mind creates incomplete actions; incomplete actions have consequences.

Part 3

Word made flesh... or, "war" made flesh; that's the question that sits at the heart of every moment of life, whether it is wanted, or not.

Part 1

Sometimes the touch of Grace is sweet; sometimes it seems bitter, hard to bear; yet, whatever its measure, this much is true: it always strengthens those who will agree to stand in its Living Light, allowing it to reveal, and release them from what they've yet to realize is true about themselves.

Part 2

When all is said and done, there is only one freedom, and that is in the unconditional acceptance of the experience of myself...as I am.

Part 3

As long as we continue to give ourselves good reasons why we must burn with anger, or to lean on weary excuses why we must be filled with fear or worry...we will never be free of anger, fear, or worry.

Only in our awareness of a weakness -- by our ability to sense the presence of any negative, or otherwise self-denigrating thought or feeling -- is found the strength we need to die to this lower level of self that, otherwise... lives to ensure that we accept its limitations as being our own.

When the winds of fortune blow hot or cold, sweet or sour, don't lean toward one or away from the other. Instead, remain upright; only the balanced mind can walk safely over and through the uneven surfaces of this world.

Part 1

If you want to catch a glimpse of Heaven just stop looking away from whatever truths may be revealed in its silent Light.

Part 2

No matter how fast, or far we may run, it is impossible to out-distance, let alone hide from what we don't want to see in ourselves!

Part 1

Here is why it's impossible to run after, let alone come to possess real peace of mind: the same moment we set out to do so... we disturb it.

Part 2

Here is the unseen cause of the great circle of human conflict and suffering: we unconsciously resist the appearance, realization, and hence the reconciliation of (our) collective and individual karma, accordingly. In other words, argue it as we may, our unseen resistance to unwanted moments in life is the same as rejecting a celestial invitation to be re-united with the Divine.

Part 3

Nothing negative has happened to you, until you wish it wasn't happening.

The practice of anchoring our attention in the present moment helps dissolve the suffering born of revisiting any painful moment from our past... before it gets started!

Part 1

Hidden deep within every desire there dwells an unseen fire; handle carefully... if you don't want to get burned.

Part 2

A divided mind is the breeding ground of self-defeat; not only is it incapable of seeing its own contradictions, but then it struggles with them in a futile attempt to free itself from a conflict that wouldn't exist if it didn't first create it somewhere in the darkness of itself.

Part 1

Enlightenment is instantaneous, but keeping the lights on is another story altogether!

Part 2

Intention is the front runner of a race yet to be run, a new order of will yet to be tested, but waiting to be realized.

Part 1

The anxiety inherent in ANY dream of "when and then" can only end in the here and NOW.

Part 2

No moment is incomplete, it's just that we’re too impatient to wait and watch it reveal its role in a greater whole whose peace is inseparable from those who agree to participate within it.

Slowly our wish and work to see through and outgrow the pain of our negative reactions grows into the will to be able to do so.

Part 1

The size and strength of any anxious, or otherwise tormenting reaction is no bigger or stronger than the extent of our resistance in the moment of its appearance. It’s always the shadow we don’t want that engulfs us.

Part 2

True spiritual freedom is the complete -- moment to moment -- unconditional acceptance of the experience of oneself.

Part 3

One who dwells in the middle, who “walks” the middle path makes nothing, nor does anything... But who is, nevertheless, all things made, seen, and realized all at once.
