Hate Cannot Drive Out Hate

A few people have told me about spiritual teachers or personalities who have said that Trump is a light being, doing light being work, and what do I think about that … so here’s what I think about that.

Energy Flows Where Attention Goes

Interrupt worry, gently and persistently. Interrupt your imagination’s pictures of futures that don’t exist yet and may never.

Resistance has intended effect when it applies pressure that acts rather than reacts. Reactive resistance gives the thing being resisted something to push against, keeping it present. Notice what happens when you go under, around or through.  Notice what happens when action is taken, rather than reaction being in charge. As things fall apart, spacesContinue reading “Creation in Chaos”

Close your eyes and imagine sending big love to people that you love. Then close your eyes and imagine send big love to the people that you disagree with, despise, and fear.  It is not necessary to be angry in order to stand up to what is wrong. It is not necessary to hate orContinue reading “19 January 2025”
