"The Spirit, the Soul, is a here and now process. In fact, it's the greatest here and now process that you can experience. It's so present that when you are able to let go of the past concerns and future anxieties, you find Spirit is naturally present." - John-Roger
"I am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness. I am the Now. I Am." - Eckhart Tolle

"There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were."
― Hazrat Inayat Khan
May grace assist you in stepping into the Truth of who you are. May your birth be celebrated with Love and Joy!

​"In Spirit, there is no time and no space. All exists right now, in eternity. All exists as One. There is no division, no separation, One Soul is all Souls." - J-R
If you are in a space of feeling alone, misunderstood, not loved, it's always an opportunity to expand into the higher knowing. Our inertia wants to keep us from moving, from expanding into the higher form.
Each time you move into the expansion, even just a little, you will strengthen and you have the opportunity to rise, to transcend, to break free.
When you find yourself contracting, do the things that expand you.
May you find yourself gazing into the eternal, engaged in the Twaji.
Peace be still.

“When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.”
― Lao Tzu
The ego likes definition. I am a father, businessman, spiritual, husband who loves chocolate.
The definition that you hold of yourself is safe and yet constrictive.
You can change your story and create a new world to live in or you can let go completely and let your Soul flow with Spirit.
You can let go and just be the I AM.

"The Light is given to you consciously; it stirs
the intellect and the Soul into recollection of
what it really is, its promise and destiny.
It is up to you to look into your own
consciousness and see the Light and love there.
You will see the portals and the keys to the
Kingdom of Heaven."

The earth has disappeared beneath my feet,
Illusion fled from all my ecstasy.
Now like a radiant sky creature
God keeps opening.
God keeps opening
Inside of Me.

"Above all the Soul is hopelessly and incorrigibly living love. It is the lover. It goes on in blissful ignorance of the pain and suffering experienced by the personality, emotions, mind and imagination. The more loving you are, the more you free yourself to experience the Soul, and when you reach the Soul level, there is only a knowingness of God that does not rely on the body, mind, emotions or imagination. It just is". -John-Roger
May you rise to the loving and live from the peace that goes beyond all understanding.

“Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.”
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.”
“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”
