Transformed vision

Why are we here? We are here to recognize everyone (and let's not forget ourselves) as who we truly are. When we recognize the beauty and wonder of everyone else here with us, our experience with them is transformed. It has to be. When we see beyond who we thought we were in relation to … Continue reading Transformed vision

Releasing what you embraced

As the layers melt, we come to see what has perceptually separated what we consider to be our separate selves from other selves, perceived as equally separate. They are layers of fear in all its components--anger, frustration, hostility, guilt, jealousy, helplessness. When you access one such layer, you may be tempted to condemn this whole … Continue reading Releasing what you embraced

The most beautiful game level

Go way, way back. Back to the beginning of what you consider to be this lifetime. Even in the womb, you felt tension and contraction, relative expansion. As you grew into awareness of a separate self, there was a point at which you began to understand blame. There was a moment when you understood yourself--your … Continue reading The most beautiful game level

Special functions

My understanding of the term "special function" originated with A Course in Miracles. Each person has a special function that comes effortlessly. All special functions dovetail harmoniously with one another. When you're with someone having a less than harmonious experience, consider the idea that what you really may want, over and above something you consider to … Continue reading Special functions

Clearing our shared space

If you follow this blog, you may see a veritable flood of posts coming through. I keep writing down seed ideas and not expanding on them. Today, though, the way seems to be clear to write and write and write. Awareness is. It's the base. The foundation. It's always there and connects all of us. … Continue reading Clearing our shared space

Forgetting to remember

I have been given the phrase "forget to remember" many times, and it has always been a helpful pointer. I was given it again several days ago with a sort of tap on the shoulder to write about it, and then again today. I'm sharing this part of the process because I sense others out … Continue reading Forgetting to remember

What thought can come into this space?

What thought can come into this space? As you ask this question, notice the interval before a thought shows up. Notice the intervals between thoughts. If a thought enters that is disturbing, it has come into a sacred place--a place of light and love. The light of awareness dissolves the thought. The light is who … Continue reading What thought can come into this space?

Giving all to all

At some point, functioning according to the dictates of the ego seems so hopelessly complex, confusing and pointless, that you just surrender and give all to the all. "Here you go. You figure it out. I really don't know what to do with this," I say to the intelligence of the Universe. Or the Multiverse. … Continue reading Giving all to all

Two paths

https://youtu.be/8K1Mbq10MSI There is a well-worn path we learn to tread. It is a path worn smooth by thought, by a perspective that one self is inevitably pitted against another, that love is a refuge in the storm of life rather than the foundation of it all. When we become aware that there is another option--a … Continue reading Two paths

Sand for the pearl

https://youtu.be/YmZq-TLUHJU Remember when you are with another being, either in thought or physically, and the faintest glimmer of irritation arises within you, this experience is most certainly for you. It is most certainly for the you that you think you are, individually. This apparent irritant has come to you as a gift. It is penetrating into your … Continue reading Sand for the pearl
