Saying “I am God” is
like dropping a pebble
in a very still pond
and watching the ripples
spread across the surface.
If the pond
were infinite consciousness,
divine ripples would reach
everyone.
What would happen if
we dropped
a love boulder
in the pond?
A tsunami of love.
A Forbidden Practice
“I Am God” is a spiritual mantra
often frowned upon by experts.
To some, it smacks of egotism.
But the ego does not become God,
for in awakening, no separate ego is left
to feel superior or important.
Instead, a marvelous new energy arises
transforming personality, motive, and
perception, transfiguring the world
right where
you are.
Everything becomes God.
For those who enter this consciousness,
love becomes the prime mover of existence.
Personal Transformation
is the greatest offering
we can make to the world, for
each awakening ignites
humanity’s collective consciousness.
Because all consciousness is one, change
yourself and you change the world.
A New Path to Enlightenment
Satori is not required for enlightenment.
You need only replace conventional beliefs
with sustained mystical consciousness.
Its revelations will bring quantum leaps in your
understanding and realization of God.
Within & Without
To go within yourself is to go
within everything, for
God’s within knows no boundaries.
My within includes
Earth, trees, sky, plants, animals, and you.
To go without engages the mind’s
penchant for conceptual boundaries,
splitting Creation into endless distinctions.
Failing to experience ourselves
within one another, each becomes
the distrusted other.
Disappearing
Gazing out the window into an August garden, absent-
mindedly surveying the colorful, overflowing
abundance,
I rest in the peace of now.
I enter stillness.
Words lose their meaning,
tumble into silent nothingness.
The mind settles.
I disappear in the void.
Only a shell remains,
and you,
everywhere,
like air.
Tadpoles
We are tadpoles in the sparkling waters of divinity
preparing for transformation.
Sacred Waters
As Creator,
I don an iridescent cloak
and become Eden.
As the sentient river of life,
tides, hues, scents,
tastes, sounds,
moods, and countless
beings, flow out of
me and back again.
You have lost touch with the
swirling waters of my eternal Self.
It is time to swim again.
Repeat after me:
I am the living God.
I dwell in all beings.
In me awakens the ecstasy of song,
dance, courting, and creating, of
life, love, and longing, of earth,
wind, and sky, as I dissolve in the
spirit-filled waters of Creation.
Meeting God
When I long to see the face of God,
I look in the mirror and
smile in recognition.
To See Me, Be Me
Here’s the ultimate riddle:
“I am everyone,
but no one sees
me. Who am I?”
God.
How can this be?
We see what we imagine…
a “homeless person”
“police officer”
“mother”
“clerk”
“student”
“criminal”
“nurse”
While we have a backstory for each, we never
see God behind the masks.
Nor do the figures experience God in themselves.
But wipe clean the “doors of perception,”
remove masks and narratives,
and what a homecoming we would have.
One loving family
awaking from a long nightmare.
What is the moral here?
God replies,
“You must be me to see me.”
Awaken divine consciousness and the
face of God will shine in everyone you meet.
I Am God
