Hello all, a recent conversation brought up the idea that it's the little things that count. Here are two examples far more elegant than I. The first is a video of Reinee Pasarow talking about her NDE:
And the second is a reading from Edgar Cayce:
There is that access, then, that way, to the Throne of grace, of mercy, of peace, of understanding, within thine own self. For He has promised to meet thee in thine own temple, in thine own body, through thine own mind . . . And then enter into the holy of holies, within thine own consciousness; turn within; see what has prompted thee. And He has promised to meet thee there. And there shall it be told thee from within the steps thou shouldst take day by day, step by step. Not that some great exploit, some great manner of change should come within thine body, thine mind, but line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little, there a little. For it is, as He has given, not the knowledge alone but the practical application--in thine daily experience with thy fellow man--that counts. Reading 922-1
May we sit this evening with the beauty we may find here...
With loving thanks,
Richard

Hello all, once again the question of what's important brought up the ebola epidemic. May we petition for the Light to shine down upon all involved. May we join in with our best.
Thank you,
Richard

Hello all, while overshadowed by seemingly unstoppable war news the ebola epidemic continues. In this sometimes overwhelming onslaught of horror and outrage may we take a moment to quiet ourselves and ask that God's Light come down. May lessons be learned and attitudes change. May we reach out in whatever way falls to hand.
In reverence,
Richard

Hello all, in his book Enlivening the Chakra of the Heart, Florin Lowndes lays out seven stages of descent by which things on this Earth may have arisen from purely spiritual archetypes. He describes the development of a pencil but you can also see the, somewhat slower in time, the opening of hearts. The sequence is:
Spiritual Archetype
Descent through a 'family tree' or related concepts
The dawning intention, discovery, conception, motivation in the human mind
Creation
Embryo stage
Birth and growth
Maturing, perfection, completion
If we look back from the Magna Carte in England; to the Declaration of Independence in America; to our own Labor, Suffragette, and Civil Rights movements; to Tiananmen Square; to the Arab Spring we can trace a growing sense of compassion in the world, the caring for self and others. The difficulty of the struggle and the various obstacles involved also become very clear.
Currently the news media is filled with reports of difficulties and obstacles as 'lost souls' kick back in fear-driven anger. Yet, history shows us that archetypes come through, hearts open and minds change.
May we sit again this evening for the fulfillment of spiritual archetypes. May they pass down through those involved into full completion. May we have a loving understanding of the difficulties and be of assistance as we can.
Thank you,
Richard
