Hello all, as has been taught for thousands of years, this life is a temporary flickering image, a thin shadow of a far greater reality. What are casually sown seeds in this life become a harvest of intensity later on. As we watch political dramas unfold we can see that those who have tremendous responsibility are often the least aware of this lesson.
May we sit this Sunday for their hearts to open beyond the distractions of their positions. May they see a greater plan at work. May their Divine connections be strengthened, and ours as well.
Thank you,
Richard

Hello all, the long term effects of our decisions reverberate outward for years. This can be seen to great effect in a democratic government which relies upon a voting populace. If it's true that the will and attitudes of a people are reflected in it's elected officials, then careful choice is important.
May we sit this Sunday for insight and guidance during this election year, not only for ourselves but for all those involved in our political process. May we sit for the patience, love and wisdom to see clearly and to choose well.
Thank you,
Richard

Hello all, here's a short clip from David Roth's song "Five Blind Men".
http://www.davidrothmusic.com/DR_45/Rising%20in%20Love/09%20Five%20Blind%20Men.mp3
The song talks about five blind men following a wise man into the woods and coming upon an elephant resting in a glade. The wise man watched as each blind man examined a different part of the animal and thereby had a completely different view of it. The man at the trunk said, "It's a hose." The man at the ear said, "It's a fan." The man with a leg said, "It's a tree." The man at it's side said, "It's a wall." And the man at the tail claimed it was a snake.
At that point the elephant, gentle and kind, simply turned around, which knocked the blind men to the ground. Upon rising each now had a different part of the animal to inspect. Comparing notes they came to realize that each had only a partial understanding before but together they saw a greater whole. Dancing and singing they then lead the wise man out of the woods, who followed along as humbly as he could.
Even with all his great knowledge he did not have their joy. For they knew, by deep experience, that what you see depends entirely upon where you stand and how you feel.
May we sit this Sunday for that greater view, the lessons within, and that amazing joy.
Thank you all,
Richard

Hello all, here's a quote from Edgar Cayce
"In the first cause, or principle, all is perfect. In the creation of soul, we find the portion may become a living soul and equal with the Creator. To reach that position, when separated, must pass through all stages of development, that it may be one with the Creator." Reading 900-10
In this we see the plan for growth and development, that all of creation leads to fruition and fulfillment. The higher levels, so easy for us to miss, are always with us, always on our side. May we sit this Sunday for that knowing, for that restful beauty, that in the final result we are all in loving, molding hands.
Thank you,
Richard
