Soul Journeys

Acceptance is not resignation or defeat; it is the ability to see clearly and accept our life in all its pain, imperfection, and beauty. How often we are frustrated, how kind we are to ourselves and others, are measures of our enlightenment. Move towards peace and equanimity. Livestreamed: 4/11/25

Humor - Humanity - Humility - Human - Humus - Earth. Learn to take ourselves less seriously. Laugh at our prejudices. Laugh at ourselves, our faults and insecurities. Develop humor in the face of difficulty. Laughing meditation. Livestreamed: 4/4/2025

Confronting the issue of specialness. Specialness leads to separation, separation leads to isolation, isolation leads to loneliness. From the depths of our hearts cultivate an appreciation for whomever is in front of us. Humility is essential to joy. Livestreamed: 3/28/25

Spring is coming! I went to an AA meeting last night. It's kind of like speed therapy. Being seen, heard, and appreciated. Realizing an accepting we are not in control of the program. Honestly and lying. Livestreamed: 3/25/25

The Qualities of Mind: Perspective, Humility, Humor, and Acceptance. The Qualities of Hear: Forgiveness, Gratitude, Compassion, and Generosity. Perspective - how we frame the reality of our life.

Sharing the sacred. We are all one, brothers and sisters. Most of our strife comes from our forgetting this basic truth. Be present and let go. Livestreamed: 3/14/25

There is a beginning. There is a middle. There is an end. Once we accept these truths our attitude changes. If God is nature, and the nature of all things is to come into existence and end, then change, beginning, and ending are God. Know this, deeply. And know God. We are visitors: use our time wisely: make our world better, for everyone. Livestreamed: 3/7/25

Resistance to reality. Cascades of dissatisfaction. Try to do nothing. Sit until the mud settles, or else project. Cultivate stillness, being-ness, ok-ness. Everything is coming and going. Come back home. Livestreamed: 3/4/25

"It is actually the painful experiences that shine the light on the nature of happiness." Is suffering good for us? Does it build resilience, tolerance, compassion, flexibility, resourcefulness, and humility? Transform our engagement with our family, teachers, and adversaries into the three roots of virtue - non attachment, compassion, wisdom. Livestreamed: 2/28/25

Teaching from an apartment balcony in Santiago, Chile! Bringing South American energy back to the US. Things are always changing. Going with the flow from the beaches of Peru, to the Andes mountains, to city life, travel forces us to grow, learn, and stretch. If we're waiting for things to be a particular way to be peaceful, we can be waiting a long time! Livestreamed: 2/19/25

Meditate in the South Pacific. Dialogue on Love, Connection, and Aliveness. Reading from Anthony De Mello. Lean into our fears, realize there is a space on the other side of our conditioning and attachments. Up- level our programing to go beyond our beliefs, judgements, and fears. Livestreamed: 2/14/25
