The End of the Spiritual Journey

The End of the Spiritual Journey

The end of the spiritual journey arrives 

when we realize

there is no place else to go,

nothing left to figure out.

Enlightenment happens here and now,

 not in an imagined future. 

Senses heightened, we penetrate the “isness” of being and

God opens like a flower right where we are.

What’s Under the Mask?

What’s Under the Mask?

We keep looking underneath the masks we wear

for what we absolutely know exists,

but have forbidden ourselves from finding.

We cannot even whisper its truth.

“I am God.

And so are you.”

“I Am God” is Not a New Identity

“I Am God” is Not a New Identity

“I am God” is an experience 

of awakened consciousness.

We don’t become the all-powerful figure

portrayed in movies, collective beliefs, or religion. 

There is no ego-inflation here because 

no personal “I” exists to get inflated.   

The opposite of heresy, 

“I Am God” 

is the essence and fulfillment

of incarnation.

In the “I Am God” State,

In the “I Am God” State,

my consciousness 

is calm, holy, and joyous. 

Everywhere I go, my presence says, 

“I love you,” 

enveloping the world in divinity.

 Time is timeless. 

All is flow. 

Every thing perfect,

just as it is,

and it’s all one thing

Life, too, is different. 

No rush, no pressure. 

I move slowly, consciously, staying in the present

in a realm growing more magical, 

alive, light-filled, enchantingly beautiful, 

and mysterious by the second,

 calling me into ever-deeper communion. 

I, too, am mysterious, 

entranced and fascinated

as divine consciousness permeates 

my delighted being.

What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do?

What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do?

Do nothing.

Stop thinking.

Be still.

Breathe.

Be present.

Intensify awareness.

Enter the radical sensory now. 

Explore it with passionate interest.

 Discover the mysterious beauty of things close by.

Experience your body as pure sensation.

Feel the joy of God’s being as your own being.

Notice love now surging from your depths.

You’re on the threshold of Heaven on Earth,

 everyday reality transfigured in light,

a love affair with God in Creation.

Secretly invite others to join you.

Be happy.

Love unconditionally.

That’s it!

The End of Time

The End of Time

Our work for enlightenment goes 

until the end of time.

But here’s the catch:

Time ends when thought ends.

What’s left is the dawning of enlightenment.

Becoming More God

Becoming More God

No one does this perfectly. 

Mystical experiences do not fix 

long-standing problems and 

no one retires in enlightenment. 

But we become more God with every 

mystically-amplified moment as 

the world brightens in our

transforming consciousness.

Priming the Pump

Priming the Pump

Farmers drill into aquifers for water.

To bring it up, they often need to “prime the pump,”

adding water to remove air 

blocking the pumping mechanism. 

So too with Spirit. 

A vast aquifer of divine consciousness 

waits beneath our public selves.

Seeking to awaken the experience of God, 

we dive into the sacred depths of being,

unite personal spirit with its source,

and prime the pump with the words,

 “I am God” 

until the sacred life-giving waters of 

love stream through us 

into the world.
