return home

We are the prodigal child. We think we’ve left home never to return, because we don’t know if it’s even possible to do so. We believe we’ve spurned our inheritance forever. None of this is true. A Course in Miracles is one of the many paths that is available to us that show the way back home. The time is ripe, it’s time to come home, the dawn light of our Sun has been sighted, rejoice and be led back to eternal safety, and joy!

[acim series] The Only Thing That We Lack…

A sense of separation from God is the only lack you really need to correct. a course in miracles

only peace

With this post begins a series devoted to soul-stirring quotes from A Course in Miracles. For more than 25 years I avoided reading the Course. And that’s because it was difficult to understand and quite daunting in its size. Then like anything else, when the student was ready the teacher appeared. The Course has been my teacher the last couple years and boy has it helped! Thanks to the Course I finally know the meaning of ‘peace that passeth all understanding‘. While it’s not present 24×7, the peace is here long enough for me to know that God is real. This post is an invitation to you to accept and experience the presence of God. It’s here in the most ordinary of things and circumstances, and this presence makes all of it vibrant and special. Accept that such a peace is possible and that the only reason we don’t experience it is because we’ve decided that something else is more important.

How To Be In Awe…

Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment. – Rumi

be in awe

Our ego isn’t who we are. And cleverness belongs to the ego. When we’re in awe and innocent like a child, we can discover and reside as our true nature. Rumi exhorts us to let go of our cunning mind so that we can finally ‘see’.

How to Come Back to God…

Whatever you do, make it an offering to me. – Gita

only God is

There’s only one thing going on. God is. We on the other hand don’t feel anything like God. The way back home is to acknowledge everything as God. And the sure way to do that is by offering all that we ‘do’ to God and thus detach from any associated outcomes of our actions.

Why Be Like Children?

Little children recognize that they do not understand what they perceive, and so they ask what it means. – acim

like children

Children are innocent. They don’t assume that they already know. In fact they’re clear that they do not know. And therefore they stay curious. We, adults, lose that natural curiosity and innocence. We just know the answers and think we know how to run our life. Nothing could be farther from the truth. And that’s because everywhere we look adults have made a mess of the world and their lives. If we really knew how to run the world and our lives everything would be peachy-keen, but it’s not. So what’s missing? We refuse to ask and seek help from our divine parent.

God is Here, Always and in All Ways…

When I said, “I am with you always,” I meant it literally. – ACIM

God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. God is with us, here, now, always and in all ways. We can just rest easy, and play, because all is well.

How To Experience Infinity…

If the door of perception were cleansed, everything would appear as it is, infinite. – William Blake

welcome to infinity…

Our mind can be tranquil, quiet as a reflective but deep pond. No ripples, just still as a rock, and fathomless. In such an undisturbed and mute mode the ordinary springs to life. The wind dances while weaving its way through fragrant Spring flowers. Their perfume is sprayed over all who are alive and neighborly. Delicate sun rays land and bounce off dozens of color-emitting surfaces. Mother Earth bursts with sensory delights that are impossible to imbibe, all at once. Welcome to infinity…
