Texas Faith: Can baseball bring you closer to God?

The analogy of waiting for the season to start with great fervor and starting all over again with a clean slate parallels the wait for Christmas, Easter, Passover, Ramadan, Navaratri, Paryushan and other festivities. It is an opening everyone looks forward to after an exhaustive completion of another year. Indeed, Sexton puts it aptly, “Opening day encourages us every year to seek a path to serenity and transcendence.” - Mike Ghouse …

Political Pluralism in America - Sequestration 2013

It’s a ransom - if you do that, we will do this. Neither Obama administration nor the Republicans budged from their positions to realign the cuts in expenditures and enhancement of revenues to balance the budget. …

So what if John Brenan is a Muslim?

As a Muslim I am sick of the radicals among us, and as a Republican I am sick of the radicals among us. The one gratifying fact is, we can find them all quarantined in one cess pool of GOP. Thank God much of the GOP is clean, and it is time for us to pray for these sickos.…

Revealing The Light - "Awakening"

Awakening IS Remembering!

The ego-mind loves to play hide-and-seek with the Truth, wrapping It in mystique and placing It far away. It details the rules of the game and provides endless steps in a 'process' that only a few even qualify to play.

Its methods adapt to cultural beliefs but always its end game is seek but do not find.

The concept of 'becoming' is something which involves time and space ... the home of illusions. It places God outside, where It seems to belong… Continue

Revealing The Light - "Allow Your Heart To Guide"

Truth cannot be found in the mind, nor in opinion, nor in the endless dissecting of spiritual texts. The ego-mind loves the search ... chasing its tail in an endless charade, parading itself as a Truth seeker. Yet, it will never 'Know' God, for to do so would be to attend its own funeral.

The list of ways and means, of modalities and disciplines, of sacrifices and repetitive affirmations stretches into the antiquity of the old energy ... the energy, which no longer guides humanity or… Continue

Revealing The Light - "Transforming Your Life"

Chances are, where you are at this moment in your experience is less than what you want. The reason is ... you don't yet 'Know' Who You Are.

As a result, you have 'settled' for the belief you have about your self and the world that has manifested around that belief. This need NOT be!

At a much deeper level you 'do' want what you now have because it is not possible to experience anything unless you want it ... you create your entire world experience ... you are 'not'… Continue

Revealing The Light - "Divine Uncertainty"

Embracing the Unknown is an expression of the Freedom That You Are. You allow the flow of events in your experience to unfold on their own without expectation. You allow the wonder of a child to fill each Moment. Unimpeded by the interference of the ego-mind, the orchestration of the Universe is always perfect.

This is True regardless of that interference as the Universe instantly adapts to what the ego-mind projects as separation, extending the Love That It IS in every… Continue

Revealing The Truth - "Sacred Gift"

Never before have so many children come to earth who are "already" Radiating the "Life Essence" ... the frequency of the Now. Left alone, their "I AM Presence" will blossom .... still closed ... but not sleeping ... in the bud as It IS when their first breath is taken.

While the nurturing care of a child has always been a "Sacred Gift" ... blessings each Moment of your Life on Earth, these New small Ones bring with them the "Divine Architecture" of the New Earth.

There are… Continue

Revealing The Light - "Life Essence"

With the Now, there is Peace ... a sense of understanding Life and how it Really IS. There is no figuring out or philosophizing, no opinions or concepts, no effort or stress to know what to do, where to go or what to say. All is given you in each Moment and for each individuated "I AM Presence", the Divine orchestration is unique.

I call this experience "Life Essence". While it lives in the Moment, without past or future, it can also permeate an environment or a thing. It is a… Continue

Revealing The Light - "What Do You Want?"

What do you want? What do you REALLY want ...

Immediately, the ego-mind swings into action at this question and a mental list begins appearing. It begins with a number of 'wishes' of what it "does not" want. This "don't want" list comes easily because a great deal of attention has been given to it ... this attention keeps these "don't wants" firmly in your experience.

The list of "wants" comes less easily because they are tied to unworthiness, a lack of belief and a lack of… Continue

Revealing The Light - "When The Floods Come"

For most people the floods are coming more and more frequently and more severely than ever before. Do you curse and resist them when they come ... or do you embrace the darkness as you would the Light?

Both are aspects of All That Is.

Embracing the darkness in your life, whether it be in your face or far from your experience ... is much more than a mental exercise repeated to convince your ego-mind you are a spiritual person. You must Truly experience how it feels and… Continue
