The grand illusion plays out with or without your participation. You have no control over how it is playing out, but you do control how you perceive what is playing out. That is the whole point.The illusion plays out—with or without you.How you experience this playing out depends upon you. You either get sucked right …

Finding freedom in the present moment
From my meditation yesterday – “When you find yourself in the future or the past, your mind has taken charge, and you notice, if you pay attention, that your body tenses up, as it believes everything your mind tells it. Simultaneously, there is a more subtle aspect of you that lies in stillness- in complete …
Be There NOW
As a human being, you are conditioned to look at the human experience as a continuous stream of experience. However just like a film reel is merely a lot of still shots put together to give the illusion of continuity, similarly your life stream is made of moments put together. Each moment is a portalway …
Love
You do not need to know how to love. You need to simply know that you ARE Love. You do not need to be taught something you already were, before you assumed all those layers of identity on top of the pure light of love that you are. Love is what you are. Not what …

These were meant to be played at different speeds, depending upon whether these were the big or small ones. If we played them at the …
Conscious Choice
For the longest time I carried a belief deep in my subconscious, that life somehow balances itself out. So, for example, if I had had a childhood that did not feel good, I would then be exempt from going through a bad time as an adult or vice versa. Ive met several people in my …
Choose Love
Each day we are given countless opportunities to ” see ” from a more expansive perspective. Whether its people in our lives, things that are happening to us and around us, our work and our play. We repeat dysfunctional cycles only when we are stubborn in seeing only the way, we have always “seen”. When …
