Does God exist?
”I cannot prove to you that God exists, but my work has proved empirically that the pattern of God exists in every man and that this pattern in the individual has at its disposal the greatest transforming energies of which life is capable. Find this pattern in your own individual self and life is transformed.” ~ Carl G. Jung Thank you Linda Masterson for this...
Read MoreAre you looking for me?
Are you looking for me? I am in the next seat. My shoulder is against yours. You will not find me in the stupas, not in Indian shrine rooms, nor in synagogues, nor in cathedrals: Not in masses, nor kirtans, not in legs winding around your own neck, nor in eating nothing but vegetables. When you really look for me you will see me Instantly— You will find me in the tiniest house of...
Read MoreLast Night as I was Sleeping
Last night, as I was sleeping, I dreamt-marvellous error! that a spring was breaking out in my heart. I said: Along which secret aqueduct, Oh water, are you coming to me, water of a new life that I have never drunk? Last night, as I was sleeping, I dreamt-marvellous error! that I had a beehive here inside my heart. And the golden bees were making white combs and sweet honey from my old...
Read MorePatience
Above all, trust in the slow work of God, We are, quite naturally, impatient in everything to reach the end without delay. We should like to skip the intermediate stages. We are impatient of being on the way to something unknown, something new, And yet it is the law of all progress that it is made by passing through some stages of instability- And that it may take a very long time. And so I think...
Read MoreTired of Speaking Sweetly
Love wants to reach out and manhandle us, Break all our teacup talk of God. If you had the courage and Could give the Beloved His choice, some nights, He would just drag you around the room By your hair, Ripping from your grip all those toys in the world That bring you no joy. Love sometimes gets tired of speaking sweetly And wants to rip to shreds All your erroneous notions of truth That make...

Read MoreYOUR PLAYMATES
I was born for you; what do you want of me, dear? Look at all that has come from your wish: the forests, the streams, the mountains the fields, every creature: are these not your playmates? Do we give you comfort, God, in Eternity? We were born for You; don’t be shy. Beloved. Just tell us what You want but in a language that makes us smile. —St Theresa of...
Read MoreA Perspective
Photo by Steve Halama on Unsplash “If the gospel isn’t good news for everybody, then it isn’t good news for anybody. And this is because the most powerful things happen when the church surrenders its desire to convert people and convince them to join. It is when the church gives itself away in radical acts of service and compassion, expecting nothing in return, that the way of Jesus...
Read MoreJourney Home
Rabindranath Tagore The time that my journey takes is long and the way of it long. I came out on the chariot of the first gleam of light, and pursued my voyage through the wildernesses of worlds leaving my track on many a star and planet. It is the most distant course that comes nearest to thyself, and that training is the most intricate which leads to the utter simplicity of a tune. The traveler...
