Door

Everyone looks for a door. A door like Jesus, who is an opening in the shape of man. A lacuna between the worlds, like Mary, who is a wound in the shape of woman. Everyone looks for a portal leading to an empty chamber filled with secret palaces. We meet here while our bodies  are dreaming. We forget how much we need a gateway shaped like someone we can trust. Come, take the master's hand. Step through the hollow center  of the shadow  where  your last breath  has already gone. Meet Mira here, the poetess. Meet Rumi and the Magdalene, Mohammad and the Baal Shem Tov. Encounter the ancient Deer Priest, the Shaman who rattled your bones, changing your skeleton to a snake den. What century you came from doesn't matter. What religion your fathers gave you is the warm old Winter coat you put away in Spring. Come, meet Ishtar weeping as she looses and lets fall her seven garments of silence and self-aba...

Awareness has no gender, no race, no party. Love needs no story.  Why not shift attention to the unspeakable radiance of Beauty that floods awareness right Now, replacing the shadow of the past with the light of a New Creation? Allow the soft nameless rose of Christ to blossom from your Heart, breathing your Sun into the world.

You Are The Light

  Jesus said, "I Am the light of the world." But he also said, "You are the light of the world." There is so much light flowing into us right now, a golden flame from below, a violet flame from above, meeting as a Star of David in our heart. The light burns away the shadows, consuming our negative energy. This is why there is such apparent chaos. The shadows have governed our world, through political parties, corporate hierarchies, and entrenched bureaucracies. Their negative energy must be churned up to be cast out and dissolved into the nothingness from which it arose. Then each of us, in our own way, may take our sovereignty back. "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world." (Ephesians 6:12) Light streams from deep inside us, and light streams down from star systems beyond our sun, using our star as a window. Yet it is not the same sun it used to be: for...

Resting in the Heart (Video)

Rest the mind in the heart, until the path disappears. We meet here, in this brokenness, where all our pronouns dissolve into Thou.  A journey from the mind to the heart may be twelve inches, or twelve thousand light-years. You decide.
