Educating the Heart

The heart needs no education. It knows and is love. It only needs to know how to see through the clutter of our negative thoughts to serve its purpose. 

Love, Relationships, and Radical Honesty

Rumi said, “Your task is not to seek for love, but nearly to seek and find all the barriers with yourself that you have built against it.” Let remove the barriers to allow the love to flow.

Unconditional Love: The Ultimate Symphony

Life is like a symphony and we are here to enjoy it all. When we open to unconditional love of our “being” we are sitting in the best seat in the house.

Love, Serve, and Remember

As the song lyrics ask, “Why have you come to Earth? Why have you come to birth? Do you remember?” Could we inhabit this question and awaken the Presence within? Each of us must discover the answer for ourselves.

What Do You Love?

Our attention is the tangible measure of our love. Examine where we spend our time and attention. Is a recalibration in order?

Planting Seeds of Intention

When we no longer identify with the personal self, we can plant seeds of intention in the vast intelligent awareness that we all share. In this way we align with the natural creative force of life – that living energy of creation and manifestation. The gardener in us must intentionally sow the wise seeds.

Hearing the Cries of the World

Kaun-yin (whose name means ‘hearing the cries of the world’) reminds us to refine our listening from head to heart. Can we turn away when the world cries out?

Saying Yes

When we have the courage to not waste our gifts, we have opened to the blessings of life. Coming from this grateful feeling we harvest the grace of each moment. The art of blessing what is moves us to the Divine YES.

Open Hearted Awareness

Open-hearted awareness is that compassionate intelligence so greatly needed in our world today. As Anam Thubten says, “An open heart can only be experienced when we go beyond the realm of the intellectual mind”. This narwal capacity within us requires a shift of perception, a move to the heart.

Making Space for More

As the year comes to a close, we take time to be thankful. And we know that as much as we have there is always more. Let us make space for more abundance and joy.
