For Sunday October 12th, 2025

Hello beautiful people. Edgar Cayce tell us that all strength and healing, whether from drugs, surgery or prayer, comes from attuning living tissue to the creative energies of the Divine.

Leaving drugs and surgery to the doctors, we come upon the two meanings of 'having a lot of faith'. One is a mental construct, intensely believing and defending something without ever having seen or experienced it. The other is the degree of love one can bring to an event or situation – how securely can you attune to the Divine?

Let us sit this evening securing our connection. May we set aside biases and judgements, all mental processes, in favor of pure connection. May we bring this to the world through our lives. May we be clear lenses for the Divine to shine through.

Bless you all,

Richard

For Sunday October 5th, 2025

Hello to one and all on this lovely day. When we work together with no purpose and no goal, when only the joy of working together remains, all status and prestige disappears. Contentment, satisfaction, and compassion rises in their place.

As we are called to be of assistance to our fellow humans it helps to see them as human souls having a particular experience in life, as we are. With that perhaps we can companion them equanimously, with calmness and emotional balance.

May we sit this evening knowing we're all together, flowing along our personal paths on a river of loving creation. All is well when we are well within ourselves.

Bless you all,

Richard

For Sunday September 28th, 2025

Hello, beautiful souls. Once in a while I hit upon something which registers with people. It has been suggested that I repeat this one occasionally. So here it is: 

In the grand picture we wish for the enlightenment of humanity. In the immediate picture we wish for a spiritual upgrade of ourselves. As with so many things, the two are one and the same.

 
There is no way to separate an upgrade of ourselves from that of humanity. We are a piece of that humanity. Each time we say a kind word, share an honest smile, or reach out in compassion to someone in dis-ease, we do our part to enlighten all. It's that simple.

 
May we sit this evening for the forbearance to continue our own spiritual unfoldment amongst the many distractions of life. The end result will be worth it, and perhaps the immediate too.

Bless you all,

Richard

For Sunday September 21st, 2025

Hello again, beautiful people. We each have our individual parts to play in this amazing and difficult transition from worldly, material consciousness to heart-centered spiritual awareness. Every piece of the puzzle matters.

 
Spiritually, the path is more important than the destination. So it's not only the fullness of your life which matters, it's every piece of your life.

May we sit this even to know what the next right thing, the next loving thing, is for us to attend to. Each may be different. Each is essential. Each one is part of the whole. May we apply ourselves to the fullness of our lives.

Thank you all,

Richard

Hello again to all in this beautiful and troubled world. Those who are attached to external power continue to cling ever tighter to various methods of control; narration, intimidation, and actual violence. But, if you trust in the intelligence of the heart, you are encouraged to take a breath, relax, and observe.

 
We are told there will be atrocities; "For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven." The question we're left with is, where do we put our energies? There are a variety of answers, all individual.

Speaking truth to power with clarity; Ho'oponopono; prayer and meditation; and simply observing without internal comment are all available and effective in their ways.

May we sit this evening to find our personal responses to the difficulties of this world. May we be guided by compassionate intelligence. May we find the strength and courage to face the world as it is and move ourselves forward.

With blessings for all,

Richard

Just for the beauty of it...

This video was recently shared with me by a friend. It's Carl Jung's expansive teachings on the concepts of: 

Chop wood, Carry water,

Rice and Bowl

Follow Your Bliss

Listen to Your Heart

As Above, So Below

and probably other condensed teachings which aren't coming to mind right now.

Sorry about the AI sounding voice.

Enjoy,

Hello, beautiful people. As we know, when we touch someone's hand honestly from the heart, or connect through the eyes, we are transforming something from the spiritual into the material of this world.

 
Such manifestations change the world. It is the alchemy of the heart.

May we sit this Sunday being aware of the beauty which can be brought forth, another piece of 'As Above, So Below' come true.

Reverently offered,

Hello everyone, following the advice of Eileen Lindsay I'm reposting the meditation which was so late last week. It's worth a try, eh?

In the grand picture we wish for the enlightenment of humanity. In the immediate picture we wish for a spiritual upgrade of ourselves. As with so many things, the two are one and the same.

 
There is no way to separate an upgrade of ourselves from that of humanity. We are a piece of that humanity. Each time we say a kind word, share an honest smile, or reach out in compassion to someone in dis-ease, we do our part to enlighten all. It's that simple.

Hello, gorgeous seekers. During this transitionary period it well behooves us to see all people equally, which is not always easy. So, here's a thought to assist us with connecting: whenever you meet someone you are not meeting a person with opinions, viewpoints, emotions, and attitudes. You are meeting a human soul who is having that experience.

It's a difficult thing they've chosen to do. They've chosen it as a learning experience, which will last an entire lifetime for heaven's sake. Therefore, for having such courage, they are very deserving of your love.

May we sit this Sunday with the understanding that everyone is having their own experience, and doing so in a difficult time. And, by the way, you are deserving of your love too. In such a difficult time as this, thank you for being here.

With love and blessings for all,

Richard

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

For Sunday August 3rd, 2025

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

For Sunday July 27th, 2025

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

For Sunday July 20th, 2025

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.

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.

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

For Sunday June 15th, 2025

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

For Sunday June 8th, 2025

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

For Sunday June 1st, 2025

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

For Sunday May 25th, 2025

Hello, springtime people. As we strive to bring a new flowering of spirituality to the world it's well to be reminded of the basics. In our human psychology we tend to see the differences between ourselves and others. We would do well to view these differences with open curiosity, rather than judgmentally.

Doing so would open the door to seeing others in terms of harmony. Who do we harmonize with in a heart-felt way, regardless of differences in physicality or opinions.

May we sit this evening aware of our hearts. Where can we find harmony? How can we find connection? For if spirituality is to flower, it has to come from within.

Bless you all,

Richard

For Sunday May 18th, 2025

Hello, good people. We are told "to trust in the Divine, even when the path is unseen, is the purest form of faith" but the fun part is – the path is always unseen – as it needs to be. If we clearly saw every step before us the path would only be an intellectual exercise. It is in surrendering the heart, releasing fears and biases, that we are clear enough for guidance to come.

If we can truly do that, we will walk in grace.

Let us sit this evening in all the grace we can afford.

 
Bless you all,

Richard

From: Tessa Thomas who lives in Britain

Subject: Re: For Sunday May 11th, 2025 - Mother's Day

"Hi Richard. 

It's not mother's day here but I take the sentiments to heart and thank you anyway. 

On an aside. May I add my own words re mothers. 

Here as in other countries in Europe,  we have big celebrations going on. 

It's 80 yrs since VE Day. 'Victory in Europe'...  the celebration of the defeat by Allied forces against the tyranny of Fascism/ Hitler. 

On your mothers day, I hope we can combine the two.  I pray we can remember the Mothers on all sides, who also made the ultimate sacrifice. The love and life of their sons, who never made it back home. 

Thank you 🙏

Tessa"

An apology for Sunday May 4th, 2025

Hello, hopefully forgiving people. I forgot. I have a lot of things I can blame it on, but I'm the one who forgot. So I apologize. 

If you're interested; my son had scheduling difficulties with the kids; my performance partner and I have three new shows to do on Friday, a Bookfest performance on Saturday, which she runs; and - she broke her foot yesterday.

It ain't pretty.

But still, I'm the thick-headed one who forgot. I'm sorry, but I'll get right back to it again. Human foibles have to kick in sometimes, right?

For Sunday April 27th, 2025

Hello once again, loving people. I've been dealing with quite a cold for several days, leaving me with a thicker than usual head. Given that, I'm rerunning a meditation from July 23, 2022 which is still astonishingly pertinent today. Here goes:

Hello all, the writer Martha Beck has mentioned the phrase 'extinction burst' in her blog <https://marthabeck.com/2022/07/outlasting-the-extinction-burst/>
It details how when previously learned behaviors no longer provide the expected rewards those behaviors are intensified before ending in failure, much like a child's tantrum will intensify before running its course.

Our world is moving toward the authentic power of the heart. People are realizing their own sacredness and viewing the Earth with increasing reverence. This causes frustration in those who seek to serve themselves through external forms of power; financial, military, political, psychological. They tend to employ previously reliable patterns of external power with increasing intensity, in a classic extinction burst.

 
Ms. Beck suggests that we have to outlast them. We do so by holding our center, being compassionate to all, and observant of our own foibles.

May we sit this Sunday evening as our loving selves, compassionate and observant – engaged but not enraged. May we hold a steady love amongst the storm. May the future be held in all our hearts.

With reverence for all,

Richard

For Sunday April 20th, 2025

Hello to all you loving people. We have all kinds of love in our lives; mother love, father love, sibling love, romantic love, we can even have a love of peanut butter for heaven's sake. These are all aspects of a greater Love, the Love our souls came from and are drawn to. Ok, maybe the peanut butter is a bit iffy on that point, but you get the idea.

However, as long as there is any amount of division between mother, father, sibling, romantic partner, and yes even peanut butter, we won't truly know what that greater Love is.

May we sit Sunday evening aware that we're all being called to that greater love, that we are in a training ground. And, that we are to bring all those aspects of the greater Love right down here to this ground. It is all available.

With a pretty good love for all,

Richard

For Sunday April 5th, 2025

Hello, good people. With protests occurring around the country and world today, it's wise to remember that our relationships and connections are more important than our opinions.

In the long run, it's our hearts which will pull us through.

Let us sit tomorrow evening aware of the difference between what is in our heads and what is in our hearts. May we grow from there.

Blessings for all,

Richard

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,

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,

For Sunday March 16th, 2025

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,

For Sunday March 9th, 2025

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,

For Sunday March 2nd, 2025

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

For Sunday February 23rd, 2025

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.

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

For Sunday February 9th, 2025

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

For Sunday February 2nd, 2025

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

For Sunday January 26th, 2025

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

For Sunday January 19th, 2025

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,

For Sunday January 12th, 2025

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,
