You and I and everybody else are in the NOW army. Each moment of our daily life, we encounter a battle in which our attunement in and as the One brings about victory that’s ultimately INstated, not won by defeating something “out there.” Us peace-loving spiritual aspirants may well find it difficult to identify with…

Suchness
Suchness stands behind/above/…whatever…anything that can be conceived at any level of consciousness. Anything that we engage—standing apart, yet deriving its character from its relations with “other”—is fatuous, useless endeavor worth not a farthing. And, if you take the “h” out of that word, you’ll equally well be describing states of being that insist upon ignoring…
I “Understand…” Well, not Really
This piece is an adjunct to Book Two of my A Trilogy in Maya: Only the One IS: Assuming Truth’s Posture. That book emphasizes the importance of using worded expression and inner thoughts and feelings in a manner that protects you from forcing consciousness into anti-Zen, intellectual jail cells. Those contribute to your own personal…
The Kingdom Age
I surely am not a Christian fundamentalist who thinks Jesus is the only Son of God (although He did identify, as an instance, with the One Son of God). Idolaters of Jesus and His teachings have precious little with which to grab my attention. Yet, sometimes, they get something so right that I find myself…
Light – Sacred Fire – Holy Spirit
A friend asked me to distinguish Light, Sacred Fire and Holy Spirit: compare and contrast, por favor. I told him I had not yet meditated upon that, so I could not then give him a worthy off-the-cuff answer. But I obligated myself to nag my Christ Self sufficiently hard for Him to acquiesce with some…
Consciousness: an Open System
I just came across this in a “Bits and Pieces” magazine (Vol. R/No. 33). It simply illustrates consciousness as an infinitely open system in contradistinction to the fallen estate’s closed system, in which energy can neither be created nor destroyed. “If you have a penny and I have a penny and we exchange pennies, you…
The Sense of Separation Engenders Fear
There’s nothing “out there” to fear when consciousness relates its Selfhood All One. It’s when the sense of separation enters the picture that “other” comes about, seeking whom it can devour to survive. That is, the mere perceived existence of other, unpredictable actors brings about the possibility of risky danger. Back in 1973, when I…
Pursuing the “Ultimate”
Before beginning here, I wish to emphasize that nothing in this piece is meant to cast personal aspersions upon scientists. My strongly worded content philosophically conveys the nature of consciousness. It’s not intended to denigrate the personal passion of scientists investigating our space-time domain using the tools and models currently at their disposal. In this…
Landscapes Caress Timescapes
Most people relate to time as something that inexorably happens; a something over which they exert little control. Yet, since space and time literally shape the experiential domain, it’s important to understand both as markers that contribute to navigating the fallen estate victoriously. Physical valleys and peaks coruscate space. Likewise, time’s crawls and racing getaways…
Generative Silver: The Screen of Life
The insubstantial screen of Life anchors infinite potential as an omnipresent “generative silver.” Accessing its Presence, alchemical consciousness Artfully exchanges its mystery for radiant Beauty. Life’s Art, then, lies in recognizing Beauty’s potential and enabling divinely Loving consciousness to bring it to birth at the forefront of awareness. Obviously, for many a misshapen year, humanity…
