The Daily Way

When you cannot love yourself, it is because you are identifying with a story.  You are finding things to resist.  I cannot accept this, and I cannot accept that.  You are identifying with labels, acts, thoughts, and none of these are your eternal, basic essence.  Get rid of the memories, [...]

“I see you” -- Three words that validate Presence in another.  But from what viewpoint are you seeing that other?  As separate from you?  Well, of course they are separate if you see them with physical eyes opposite you, looking different from you.  That is the viewpoint of the human.  [...]

Life is one adventure after another.  Is that not why you are here?  What good does it do the soul to stay in a room alone?  Yes, you may go within during times of solitude and introspection, times of connecting with higher consciousness, but you have taken on a body [...]

Why are you afraid of being alone?  Why do you dislike the silence?  Could it be that someone convinced you that you need others to be loved?  You do not need others.  Others are to be celebrated, enjoyed, and cherished, for they remind you, mirror to you That which is [...]

No single teacher has all the answers, for any teacher in physical form or even in spirit form is a refraction of the One Light.  Seek, learn, mine the field for its gold.  The heart will tell you what resonates and what does not.  When you find yourself in harmony [...]

Love does not need an object.  Love is.  You know love when you feel it, for you are That.  It is your very essence.  Love cannot not be present.  When you rest your awareness, your experience of love on another, that is placing a burden on them.  You are causing [...]

Gifts.  We send them to you all the time.  Do you see them?  You do not have to see them with your physical eyes.  Do you recognize the signs that you are in this world but not of it, that you are connected to the vast web of be-ing, an [...]

When an astronaut goes off to explore outer space, does he or she do so alone?  No.  It is a team effort.  He willingly goes to an environment where he knows he will be challenged.  He willingly goes to a place where things are far different than life as he [...]

Does the sun need to do anything to shine?  No.  Shining is its very nature.  Do you need to do anything to shine?  No, for the Light of God is who you are.  Does the river need to do anything to flow?  No.  Flowing is its nature.  Do you need to [...]

The most basic question a human can ask is, “Who am I?”  Your suffering, all of it, comes when you identify “I” with the one inside a body.  Nothing could be farther from the truth in the human lineage.  In the human lineage, you are the farthest from the Source.  [...]

It may not be your way of doing things, but does that make it wrong?  Why is there diversity?  Why is there more than one type of flower?  Are you enjoying the variety, or have you missed the whole point?  Why are there various breeds of puppies?  Why have so [...]

Before all else, I AM.  And after all else, and in between all else, I AM.  Do you realize that at the level of pure existence, the level of I AM, there is no before, no after, no betwixt and between?  There is only here, now, with no there and [...]

Guided.  This is one way of looking at you as a human playing a role.  Guided by whom?  By a deity separate from you, or by friends at a higher level who are a bit more “realized” than the role player identifying with the role?  If you assume the awareness [...]

Patience.  Is it not a virtue?  And why do so many lack it?  For they fail to see the magic and the wonder in each moment as life unfolds.  They only see the end goal, missing in the process, the passing of the ball from player to player and all [...]

Can you imagine a world in which all beings knew they were not separate?  Imagine a world in which all beings knew they were the same Wellspring of Love bubbling up in the form of each other.  Envision that world, wherein all beings, when they looked into each other’s eyes, [...]

No rigidness. This is an excellent goal.  But you always do it this way or that is your immediate reply, and we are well aware of that.  Habits are helpful to the human.  Surrender is salve for the soul.  How do you know what more wondrous things will occur if [...]

Examine your stories.  Do they change?  If not, you may be stuck in limitation.  Life is about change, flow, growth.  You may have believed and shared one thing at one time, and now what?  Have new experiences changed the way you understand life?  Change the story.  Flow with life as [...]

Why do you not sleep well in a “strange” place?  Your energetic field is working to come into alignment with energy with which it is unaccustomed.  Give it time.  Balance is the natural state in nature and all beings.  Does not the physical body seek homeostasis?  So it is with [...]

Your love makes all the difference when connecting with higher consciousness.  You are like a radio antenna.  You not only receive transmissions, but you send out your own signal, so, in a way, you are a transceiver.  An inert antenna picks up very little.  What is the carrier wave?  Love!  [...]

Be impeccable with your word.  You have heard this before.  You always know your intention.  It arises from within, yet others will hear it based upon their history and their present.  Pause before you speak or write, and become one with the intended recipient of your words, written or spoken.  [...]

Rainbows are a refraction of Light — all of your known colors on a spectrum diffracted so that they seem to be separate colors.  They are magical to you, for they seem to appear out of nowhere.  They are magical, for they allow you to believe what the soul already [...]

You do not need darkness to meditate. You do not need silence. All that is needed to connect with higher consciousness is a willingness to loosen your grip on this reality you call “life” and fall backwards. In that one statement is more than one statement that is liable to [...]

“What are the chances?” you exclaim in surprise.  And did you not ask for that exact sign, or that exact thing to happen?  Yet when it does happen, or it does appear, you are stunned.  When will you believe?  When will you stop questioning?  You see your bell curve and [...]

An octopus has eight arms.  Are there not times when you say, “I wish I had more hands?”  And what would you do with them?  Do you not have enough to do as it is?  How long or how often do you sit still and simply practice being?  More arms [...]

“This viewpoint.”  That is what you are.  That is what all others are:  varying viewpoints of the One Mind.  What makes “you” any different from any apparent “other” person?  A different set of experiences.  And what are experiences?  Individual events made up of feelings, emotions, images, thoughts, and sensations, whether [...]

When something happens repeatedly in your life, pay attention.  Ideally, you are paying attention to all of the connections around you, but the human is usually so wrapped up in the story-thoughts running around in the mind that they fail to notice their surroundings.  However, when something happens over and [...]

Why do you not sense the other realities more often?  Your focus is on your human story, as it should be.  You are here for the human experience.  When is it that you experience other realities?  In your dreams, for one.  You are quite familiar with this alternate state of [...]

Meditation is a method of quieting the mind.  To what end?  To get to know peace.  What a silly thing - to need to practice to become acquainted with something that is naturally an aspect of your true nature!  And yet, so few know peace.  Look what helps you to [...]

You cannot always explain why things unfold as they do.  “But I was ready to serve!” You say, “ready to do something good.”  Yes, and then your plans went awry.  And that is what we wish you to notice.  Your plans come from your perspective.  You are looking at life [...]
