For Sunday March 30th, 2025

A gracious good day to all. We all have our parts to play in this world. The spiritual transition will unfold as needed. And, that transition will be affected by how we each play our parts.

Looking at the grand scheme of the entire universe, and beyond, our individual attitudes appear far less than miniscule, yet they have an effect.

May we sit this evening with honest awareness of our own minds, our own hearts, how we move through the world. We are tiny, but not nothing. May we add our absolute best to the present, and for the future.

Blessing on you all,

Richard

Hello to all. Anwar Sadat was president of Egypt from 1970 until his assassination in 1981. He had an NDE, according to Tom Sawyer, and began making changes to Egyptian politics and society which were intolerable to the typical mid-eastern mindset of the time. Behind all the political machinations, it was that intolerance of taking care of the vulnerable and allowing women to be educated which drove his assassination.

We face a similar situation today. Some politicians are depending upon intolerance of societal changes to drive their careers.

 
In a time of magnified division it's important to maintain connections, which can be very difficult. You are being asked, spiritually, to treat people you may find abhorrent and/or disgusting ...to treat them lovingly, with reverence and respect. You are not being asked to agree. You are being asked to see their highest self behind their opinions and conditioning.

 
May we sit this Sunday to see our highest selves at work. May we set aside our own opinions and conditioning. May we see the Light working through us. May we bring some brightness to our days.

Bless you all,

 
Richard

Hello to all on this beautifully warming spring day. Love is an active orientation toward others, an action which affirms both them and ourselves. In fact, if we can have deep respect and acceptance of another's human foibles we can more easily avoid the negative consequences so typical of adversarial moments in our relationships.

Where Eros is a possessive form of love based on desirable attributes in another, Agape` is the active affirmation of someone even in spite of their negative attributes.

May we sit this evening being aware of the power of Agape` to change lives, to bring connection, to enhance the world in which we live.

With reverence for all,

Richard

Greetings to all of you on this beautiful day. We are told each soul is a portion of the Divine, and that portion is the psychic or soul force which seeks expression within the material plane. The beauty, love, patience, hope, artistry, and long suffering inside each of us are all attributes of those psychic forces or soul forces, pushing to get out.

Meaning – diversity is an essential element of the original design. We all have our role to play.

May we sit this evening with the awareness that everyone is essential. All are loved and needed. And, the world awaits our joining.

With reverence,

Richard

Hello, and an excellent day to all. Laughter is underrated, sidelined to sitcom laugh tracks, kid's shows, and comedy clubs; its usefulness as a cleanser is easily missed.

A quick look at the evening news will show how much we need cleansing. Why cleansing? Because we have far to go before attaining Oneness. To get there, there is serious work ahead.

A light-hearted attitude is essential, but not enough to get the job done. When you are Light-hearted you will do the much needed serious work far better.

Laughter yoga groups abound, somewhere below the general public radar. They are cleansers of human fear and anxiety. Laugh each day, even if you don't feel like it – especially if you don't feel like it. If you get a belly-ache from time to time, all the better. Laughter can lead to crying and yawning, both excellent cleansers as well, and can leave you more energetically free.

May we sit this evening with a smile. May this 'secret weapon' cleanse our attitudes. May these new attitudes bring us internal peace from which to do our work.

With love and reverence for all,

Richard

Hello again, good people. It is difficult to know the fullness of individual or group karma. Nor do we know what lessons are essential at this moment.

Therefore, let's sit this evening petitioning God to send its Light down upon all involved in our political turmoil.

With reverence, blessings, and courage,

Richard

Hello, loving people. Here's a challenge from "What Tom Sawyer Learned from Dying": Can you love yourself? Not just here I am. I'm doing ok. I think I've done more positive than negative in my life. But really, truly, love yourself?

 
Can you love yourself as you love a child while watching them learn to walk, manage stairs, make their letters, learn to swim? You see their difficulties, watch them negotiate them, learn from their own mistakes, and love them all the while. Can you do that for yourself while looking over your entire lifetime, love yourself for struggling through this life?

And now, now that you love yourself for struggling through, can you love another for doing so too? Can you love them so much that they in turn, love themselves?

This is how attitudes can be changed.

May we sit this evening with full awareness of our lives, and love ourselves for all of it. May our self-love carry over to someone with whom we disagree, perhaps strongly. May spreading love be our priority, over our limited human opinions.

Blessings for you all,

Richard

Edgar Cayce says the human soul is the greatest in all creation because it can become One with Divine Source. We're clearly not there yet.

In the meantime we cry, deep long sobbing, for the horrors we inflict upon each other.

 
And therein lies our strength. It is our ability to feel deeply which motivates us. Fervent prayer is a form of action. Meditation can bring personal relief.

 
Let us look upward this evening. May our prayers bring relief to others. May our meditations heal us well. And don't forget to laugh at ourselves for the foolishness of it all.

Reverently submitted,

Richard

Hello again, and thank you for being on Earth at this time. If you subscribe to the idea that those who love outwardly have chosen to be here in order to teach and heal a world in transition, welcome, there is much to be done. Under the heading of 'you have to love yourself first' it behooves us all to be very loving of ourselves, so we can share the excess.

 
In our human consciousness we love according to judgements based upon comparisons of unavoidably limited reference points. To love spiritually is to love without judgements.

May we sit Sunday evening in search of honest self-love. May we love ourselves intensely, just as we are, with all hiccups and foibles in place. May we carry that love, and the lessons from it, into the world.

With many blessings for all,

Richard

Hello to all. We are engaged in a major undertaking – transforming the hearts of humanity. It's not a job for the faint of heart. It's a job for the joyful of heart, even if we're unsure of ourselves. There are those who have larger roles to play publicly, but all are essential – even in the smallest of ways.

Just as no puzzle is complete when a piece is missing. There's no such thing as too small of a role.

May we sit this evening being thankful for our pieces; large, small, or seen by only one. While an entire tree falling in a forest makes no sound with no one to hear it, the minor bending of a twig can change a life.

Bless you all for all the lives you've changed,

Richard

Hello, and welcome to another episode of moving ourselves forward. Millions of people have been shown a glimpse of the other side through NDEs, STEs, and many other three letter abbreviations. This means we're getting help.

But still, we must choose. Our God given free will allows us to act out our conscious and subconscious desires. Pain, malice, manipulation, and feeding our ego is all fascillitated through free will. However, it's when we express love in a non-judgemental way, and with "full reverence", that we're using it to its best potential.

May we sit this Sunday evening being aware of our choices, in both thought and action. May we carry that awareness into our days. May we lovingly assist humanity along its spiritual path.

With reverence for all,

Richard

Hello again, loving people. Our minds see the world through differences. These differences are grounded in space, time, weight, size, color, odor and all the other methods of physical measurement. 

Our hearts, however, perceive everything in terms of harmony. Do our vibrations blend well? Do we vibrate clearly enough to entice others to join in? 

May we sit this evening listening to our heart's vibrations. May we carry this awareness into our days, listening to the hearts of others, and how we all may blend together.

With blessings for all,

Richard
