HAPPY EASTER! Let’s celebrate Resurrection and Rebirth into a world where people can be free.

YOU RAISE ME UP

When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary

When troubles come and my heart burdened be

Then I am still and wait here in the silence

Until You come and sit awhile with…

Sometimes I think this life is too short for me,

When I think of all the things I want to do,

When I think of all the places I want to see,

When I think of all the people I want to love.

If I could have more eyes to see the world,

Or more ears to hear each song,

Or more hands to touch each…

No Hiding Place

In the search for spiritual truth, there’s no room for hiding. Anything that stands in the way of true fulfilment must eventually come into the light. We all carry within us emotional forces…

Trapped by Love of the Unknown

To be trapped by love of the unknown is a sacred submission to life…

Footprints in the Sand

Any true spiritual insight or realisation leaves no trace in the memory. This is because the quality of the spirit is timeless and can only be realised in the immediacy of the present. What happens is that when…

The Spiritual Crisis

The relentless pressure of the spirit, when…

Karma

Whatever is happening now or at any moment is the unfolding of karma. Many people assume that karma applies solely to the difficulties and hardships encountered in life. This is not so. Karma also unfolds…

As long as you are born of the flesh you have to suffer. This is the way of the flesh.

Do not try to improve your life. You're making a big mistake. For there is no question about it, if you use positive thinking and use your mind, you may appear to improve your life. But remember, this world in which you live is a world of…

Greed has poisoned men's souls,

has barricaded the world with hate,

has goose-stepped us into misery

and bloodshed.

We have developed speed,

but we have shut ourselves in.

Machinery that gives abundance

has left us in want.

Our knowledge has made us cynical;

our cleverness, hard…

Many years ago a wise friend gave me a name for human love. She called it "stirring-the-oatmeal" love. She was right: Within this phrase, if we will humble ourselves enough to look, is the very essence of what human love is, and it shows us the principal differences between human love and romance.

Stirring the oatmeal…

Beautiful message from Richard Gere:

"There's no time for anything else... It's life and no one escapes this living world. There's still time, so live for fun, maybe tomorrow is no more. Eat what you want, walk in the sun , bathe in the sea... Be crazy, be silly. There's no time for…

"A lot of you despise me,

And I don't understand why.

I am not ugly or deserving of your hate.

I survive every day on the streets,

That used to be meadows.

There are no tasty seeds,

Because you turned trees into buildings.

I eat what you throw on the ground,

Because I have no choice.

Water is harder…

Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a psychic phenomenon which has afflicted the human race in one form or another since the dawning of time. There are different degrees of schizophrenia, the symptoms of which often manifest in young people.…

Spirituality

What is it to be spiritual? Is it to wear a robe and shave the head, or perhaps to go to church and be reverent in the eyes of the world? Many people associate being spiritual with a traditional religion, or a psychic…

The Shining One

Whenever someone is touched by the spirit, the divine light shines through the flesh like a ray of sunshine through a cloud. Or when in love and consumed with the passion of life, the inner glow is unmistakable for all to…

The Broken Heart

People suffer the heartbreak of parting from their loved ones because their love is personal. Although everyone has a knowledge that such love is transient in the vast cyclic movement of life and death, this fact of…

The Call of the Spirit

Who at some time has not paused to ask: ‘What’s it all about?’ We live in a transitory world, which to a child can appear as a permanent structure – only for pieces to gradually disappear as the body ages and the…

Letting Go

People are often advised to ‘just let go’ of any emotional pain or anxiety as though it’s something that can be done without first confronting the source of negativity. If it were a case of simply letting go, then everyone…

My Kind of Spirituality

My kind of spirituality is the kind that needs no name. It respects no rules and fits no form. It’s as unique as an evening star, and fluid as the morning mists.

My kind of spirituality doesn’t come…
