Elevate
The beauty of the trees, the softness of the air, the fragrance of the grass, speaks to me . . . The strength of fire, the freshness of morning, the taste of salmon, the trail of the sun, and the life that never goes away, they speak of me. And my heart soars. Chief Dan...
The Cleansing
There is a way to live that makes the angels cry out in rapture. There is a way to live that makes each star a cell. Come stand with me here, it is cold I know, and silent,nothing is happening. The next breath, and the next, is the new life. Morgan Farley – Clearing Taken...
The Golden Glow
Spirituality’s highest purpose is to touch a mystery beyond words, which is perceived only in silence and solitude, the Grandmothers relate. Listening within the silence puts one in touch with the energy, vibration and spiritual forces that are at the heart of Creation. The realms are real, not of the imagination, and can only be...
Renewal
There are seasons in our souls: times of withering, times of coldness, times of renewal, times of sun and light. May the force which drives nature to its fulfillment be brought forth in us, too. Within each of us is the power to love and care awaiting our wills and our acts to bring it...

Released

Unbound
If you are truly called to a solitary lifestyle, eventually celibacy must follow. Solitude invites the presence of God, a presence which so consumes the soul, there is no lover energy available for an intense human commitment to intimacy. The deeper one goes into spiritual solitude, the lighter one travels. But it is not for...
Transform
Most things break instead of transform because they resist. The quiet miracle of love is that without our interference, it, like water, accepts whatever is tossed or dropped or placed into it, embracing it completely. Of course, we are human and are easily hurt if not loved back or if loved poorly. But we waste...

Mother Kali is the most misunderstood of the Hindu goddesses. The Encyclopedia Britannica is grossly mistaken in the following quote, “Major Hindu goddess...
Geometrika
Everyone who attains liberation must go through difficult experiences,lots of troubles, tribulations and fear for some time. Bigger than you imagine can come. Actually, we are all experiencing these things on drip-feed throughout the life, but remain unaware of this. And if they are coming more intensely now it is because you are at a...
Universal Code
The spiritual journey is one of constant transformation. In order to grow, you must give up the struggle to remain the same, and learn to embrace change at all times. You must look inside yourself and determine that from now on pain is not a problem. It is just a thing in the universe. You...
Crown Goddess
Love has to go through darkness and pain and endurance and a stark acceptance before it can come out into the far light of the sun. Madeleine L’Engle
