From the very moment I decided to walk the Path of Spirit, I became aware that thoughts played a very important part in how we experienced life. Theoretically, it all sounded like a dream, so easy!! Ah! but in reality it is another ball game altogether.  Trying to monitor thoughts is like trying to catch the wind. Not so easy, but once the challenge was accepted, the importance of this grasped, and a commitment was made to live in Truth, monitoring my thoughts started becoming wildly exciting. Every time I took the higher ground, I felt peace and bliss. When I choose a convenient thought that has no truth, I suffer emotionally, mentally and physically. We have been programmed to shun negative thoughts and welcome positive ones. But thoughts have life, and the moment any thought is engaged, a new and untrue story is born.  Every single thought must be questioned. It does'nt matter who told you to believe all of the stuff about your life - be it religion, community, s...

Pray-er? .... It was, perhaps for the first time, I realized that there is no word that can be spelled to define one who prays. Verbally one can differentiate from the pronunciation, but that is all. Strange, no? So I have been reflecting quite a bit on this and I came to this (temporary) conclusion: the Prayer and the Pray-er is the one and the same.  As you pray deeply with all your heart, and all your mind, and all your Soul, you become ONE with Prayer, with Spirit, with Life and with the Cosmos. The link between all three is pure Unity in Oneness Consciousness.  I Am Prayer . Om. Amen. Prayer truly changes our vibration. Even a chant does wonders for this entire unit I call a Human Being. Personally for me, the perfect Soul Mix is Music, Mantra and Meditat...

The truth of most matters is that we are afraid to look at life in its simplicity, to look at it the way it presents Itself, because if we do, life would be too straight forward for our liking. We need drama - big time - we need to embellish every aspect of life with excitement. Why? Perhaps because we are seeped in fear, too scared to become insignificant, too scared to be left behind, too scared that our crummy little world will come crashing down. So we must make a big noise, create a din that will deafen and deaden us to the pain of the enormous suffering that is rumbling in the depths of our spiritual wombs. In the process we get further and further away from our very own Beautiful Self. We become dry and lifeless. Before you know it we have slipped away from this world, some of us missed, some of us not. Chill! There is deep silence in the depths of Earth. We can choose any Elemental Angels and let it hold our attention for a while until we feel the calmness in our S...
