Don’t Wait

Everyone pretends to be someone

pursuing important goals or fighting for change.

Break the mirror of self-fascination.

Identity and its grand goals are a prisoner’s chains.

Instead, be a mystic, come alive.

Dance.

Love.

Be.

Create.

Every situation is a celebration of God.

Our Reward is Joy

When consciousness merges with being,

love explodes inside

and we are propelled into

the flow of divine life,

moved to listen, love, and act,

caring for the world with the gifts

we were given to share.

How We Evolve

Humanity evolves less by force and argument,

than from embodying

the all-pervading love of the sacred cosmos.

That’s what Jesus and Buddha,

Moses and Chief Seattle,

Rumi and Ramana

taught.

Let’s become divine beings

living in the fullness of God,

co-creators celebrating

an always-new community of love.

As the tyranny of mind gives way

to the sacred mystery,

we wake to enchantment and joy,

transforming the world

as we learn to love fully again.

Dancing With God

Every child has danced with God.

Not the God of should or shhhh.

The God of tippy toes and swirling skirts,

rain boots in mud puddles,

infectious giggles and divine silliness.

When did you stop dancing?

Want to dance again?

Celebrate

It doesn’t matter what others

do, think, or say.

That is the noise

of busyness and controversy.

We are here to celebrate

the cosmic nature of self and world.

Find the ecstasy of your being.

Everything is

creativity and celebration 

from there.

Incarnating God

“I am God” awakens

rivulets of love

 that spread through the body,

subtle energies of spirit

transforming the self.

From this re-union

we channel the joy

that is in everything.

We incarnate God

and birth

our work in the world.
