The Infinite: Coming Back to Wholeness

Just as we have the ability to name things into smaller and smaller parts, we have the power to name things in larger and larger terms. If we name something that encompasses its entirety, then we give back completeness, releasing enough of it back to a probable state that it can become itself again, whilst [...]

Love: Balance, Inversion, Gift & Tool

Love also seeks balance - it gives itself with the expectation of return because it understands its own worth. This balance is not the an equaling of the scales, as it were; it is about "fit" - as only one puzzle piece truly fits to another, or as a knife handle is necessary to the blade to be effective.

Hope: Gratitude

Emotion is the core of power within life. With them one can build or destroy; raise and lift up or push down and trample. When we are directing our emotions to the Universe, we are helping to build it when they are positive; like rain helps plants to grow. When we fire up and use [...]

Choice

Choice is NOT free will. Free will is often confused with the function of choice. In fact, there is no such thing as free will, because free will is the freedom to exercise one’s will in any circumstance. No one ever actually has this capacity due to the fact that one’s freedom ends where another [...]

Breathe

All things breathe in some fashion. When they do, they add their life and send out what they don’t need. This vitality is around us in so many forms. The world is saturated in life; many we recognize as such and some we don’t. Being alive, the world breathes too and breathes in the Universe. [...]

The Healing Power of Sound

It is said by some in the East that sound creates everything. It is said by others from the East that shape defines all. Since sound creates shapes, you need both; you just need to decide on the shape you want and then use the sound that makes that shape. Jonathan Goldman is a man [...]

Ever have a period in your life where you start asking yourself, “What on earth is going on!?”. You know, the kind of times where one crisis after another comes up and you start trying to figure out what you did in a past life to bring this on? Well, these are what I like [...]
