02 Develop an intense curiosity about what meets you in the silence. And how you react to it. Everyone who has thought about it through the ages has said there are only three things that impact us throughout our life: Desire Fear Duty. How we live is how we live in relation to the mixtureContinue reading “August 24, 2020”

02 In light of what do we live? I think it was Frederich Nietzsche, I know someone was quoted by Joseph Campbell as describing a mature person being “like a wheel rolling out of its own center.” I imagine a gyroscope turning out of its own center, maintaining its own balance and harmony, choosing itsContinue reading “August 25, 2020”

01 Carl Jung said, “We meet our destiny on the road we take to escape it.” And, he said, “We are who we always have been, and who we will be.” The Buddha died from eating bad pork (How enlightened was that?).

03 The Christ returns again in each generation. This is the meaning in Jesus’ declaration, “This generation will not pass away (Before the Christ returns).” And this is what is wrong with theology in every form. It locks things down. It takes the metaphorical and the symbolic and turns them into facts. But they areContinue reading “August 30, 2020”

03 We find the anchor we seek in the source of our original nature. We are what we have to work with in each situation as it arises, in whatever circumstances describe our station. Returning to the Self is remembering/realizing the essence of who we are– reaffirming our allegiance and loyalty to the service, exhibition,Continue reading “August 31, 2020”
