Most people experience reject all the time in their lives. The more we stick our neck out and reach out to others the more rejection we will experience. People reject me all the time, and as always, it hurts, for I can feel the fear that motivates any rejection. We only reject others because we […]

Open to the Truth
How does one know if they are open to the truth, if they have ‘eyes to see’ and ‘ears to hear’? Does one have to ‘apply’ some truth or what others believe is the truth, or what is true for others, in order for us to be ‘open’ to that truth? I am sure there […]
What is Love?
“Love stretches your heart and makes you big inside.” – Margaret Walker My take on love comes from watching what is actually happening inside the body when we are experiencing the sensation known as love. This is something that anyone can observe or directly experience if they just take the time to watch. I come […]

Closed-Mindedness
I recognize that, at times, I am closed-minded and I recognize that we all are closed-minded at times. It is natural for a person to resist change or new ideas or new ways of thinking. Recognizing this but not wanting to close myself off to something new that might improve the quality of my life […]
Why Meditate
I have found that the Hindu tradition provides a very good foundation in the skills of stillness which this article addresses. Buddhism takes Hinduism another step and adds compassion as an element toward recognizing our oneness in this journey. Jesus went even further toward this oneness with the ideas of love but he did not emphasis the […]
