For Sunday August 10th, 2025

Hello beautiful bringers of Light. We can spend a lot of time chasing after the peripheral results of spiritual enlightenment; psychic phenomenon, bilocation, the 'clairs', and any number of things. However, we're also told that we are our greatest teachers. How does this occur?

As explained in the included video, it's in the small nudges we get, sometimes on a daily basis. We have to learn to discern the difference between our psychological whims and our intuitive nudges. It's not always easy but is worth exploring.

May we sit this Sunday being aware of ourselves, again. May we find our way through our foibles. May we progress intuitively and with grace.

Bless you all on your paths,

Richard

Hello, summertime people. We have Tom Williams, Mary McFee, and Amphianda Baskett to bless from our hearts this evening. May it be more than well for all of us.

Thank you everyone,

Richard

Hello again, earthly travelers. We're told the reason we lost immediate contact with Source is because we began thinking. Thinking is a process of bringing up past experiences, often in an effort to look forward, thereby creating the construct of time and space.

 
Neither the past nor the future is of the now, and now is the realm of Source.

For us to reconnect with Source we must set aside our impulse to think which is not easy for us, but is worth the effort. It's part of fulfilling the ancient prophecy, "As Above, So Below."

This evening, may we sit once more toward recognizing the process of thought. May we see it clearly enough to set it aside and find our truer selves.

Thank you,

Richard

Hello, and a gracious good day to all. We here in western cultures are inoculated with the concept of 'go out and do something' to fix difficulties in the world. Such heroic adventures are appropriate in their time and place, but not available to all. The ancient Polynesian principle of Ho'oponopono however, is available at any time.

 
Ho'oponopono is the opposite of 'go out and do' in that it means 'go inside and see'. Under the heading of "We Are All One" whatever difficulty you see beyond yourself is also within you somehow. Looking to find it, no matter how small, then releasing it will improve the world by exactly that much, and much more as time goes on.

You can also celebrate the beauty you see.

May we sit Sunday evening with an eye toward seeing ourselves clearly, on all sides. May we celebrate the beauty. May we release that which doesn't feed us. May we come to clarity and balance.

 
Thank you all,

Richard

Hello, beautiful seekers of love. The alchemists of old knew the entire cosmos was made of Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water, everything they could see and touch. Subsequent searching found chemicals, elements, atoms, particles, and finally quantum physics.

 
It may well be that we are in the alchemist stage of spiritual knowledge.

May we sit this evening aware that we are beginning – no matter where we are there is always more. We are far more capable than we know and our potential awaits. May we let go of everything we know this evening, and just be.

Bless you all,

Richard

Hello, glorious people. Tom Sawyer claimed that if you could love yourself half again as much as you do, you'd shine. Very cool. Now, how do you do that? It's so easy for us to recycle old hurts, mistakes, and failures, that we leave precious little time to feel a true self love.

But, have you ever watched a toddler manage to put on a sock by themselves? It might be the cutest thing you've ever seen – and we love them through all their difficulties; which end of the sock to open, trying to coordinate feet and hands, getting all our toes in at the same time. 

That's how spirituality sees us. We are loved straight through all of our trials and missteps.

May we sit this coming Sunday, and whenever needed, by seeing ourselves as a beloved toddler in the school of life. We have much to do, and we're applying ourselves fully to it, toddlers in our own time. And all of us very deserving of love.

Bless you all for all you do,

Hello, wonderful people. When we go into the highest of meditation we repent of the physical world. We go beyond the psychological mind with its judgements, thoughts, and imagery. We go into the larger mind beyond our typically known selves.

From such a place we can be of assistance to others.

May we sit this weekend making ourselves available to offer help, guidance, or solace to all those caught up in the Texas floods.

With reverence for all,

Richard

Happy Sunday, patient people

I have to apologize, again. I've been repairing the foundation and sill plate of my garage for the past three days. I not only lost track of the days, but got completely worn out as well.

Please accept my apologies, and I'll be back again on Tuesday.

Thank you all,

A humbled Richard

Hello again, blessed people. Our history is replete with examples of leaders who have been willing to sacrifice human lives in service to their greed and ego desires.

It seems to be an endless human frailty.

May we sit this evening to petition God to shine its light down on the current leaders of our world.

Submitted in reverence,

Richard

Hello people of the future, at least the people beyond the moment of this writing. We are told the root of contradiction is the division between the thinker and the thought, as the two cannot be integrated. But, if you observe the structure of the thinker - you will see that the thinker is not, when thought is not. It is thought which creates the thinker, the experiencer. It is this entity which creates time, and is the source of fear.

So, we know that life experience is a manifestation of divinity, that the mind of an individual is the builder. And, when an individual can observe without thought; without judgement, desire, wants, prejudice, wishes, and regrets, but instead sets itself to do or to accomplish that which is creative, from that place they come under the interpretation of the law between karma and grace. From that place the individual is no longer under the law of cause and effect - karma, but rather in grace they may go on to their higher calling.

May we search for that place this evening. May we set aside the process of thinking. May we find what lies beyond.

With blessings for all,

Richard

Hello everyone, it has been said that meditation is not for eliminating the ego, but for understanding it, for grasping it fully. With this understanding we remember that we came here for a purpose, a purpose to be fulfilled by and with that same ego.

The trick is discerning how much we let the ego run our material lives, and how well we use the ego to serve the higher purpose of our material life.

May we sit this Sunday for the continued 'enlightenment' of ourselves. May we see ourselves clearly, without judgement, but with wisdom. May we use the best of ourselves for the best of all.

Blessings upon you all,

Richard

Gracious greetings again to all of you. While there are those who are adept enough to actually place a thought into another person's mind. The vast majority of us cannot. Such abilities are reserved for those whose wisdom is great enough to drop their mustard seeds with restraint. Otherwise we'd simply be conducting other people's lives for them, ignoring their free will choice of paths. 

But we are not left empty handed. Praying for the awakening of another is fully righteous. Praying for their development is also available.

This evening may we give energy to our political system as it grapples with its direction. Much is at stake and we do not know the full divine plan. Yet we can add our love at any time.

Bless you all for being here at this time,

Richard
