Truth Consciousness

Insight

Steps to Inner Peace • Do you want peace? Then you can have it just now. Not only because you may have faith in me, but because it is there. You are missing it only because you want something else.

Sacred In Search of Meaning

Recognizing the Conditioned Mind • For the first time I recognized a pattern with the voice that had previously been in the background of my experience—like the background music in a shopping center that you don't notice… until you do.

Now Is the Hour of Her Return Poems in Praise of the Divine Mother Kali • Mother Kali is a mixture of dirt and stardust. She guides the plants and animals through vast chains of birth, death, and regeneration…and holds the orbits of the planets in Her embrace. She is the Dark Matter of the universe, and its Dark Mater, too—the Mother at the bottom of it all.

911 from your Soul Are you being called? • Life is a spiritual journey. Every breath, every relationship, every joy and sorrow are calling you to remember who you really are, and to be and experience all that you came here for.

Tuesdays in Jail • Eight p.m., and still light outside. The air felt warm and daisy-petal- soft on my arms. Like Navajo stonework, a band of turquoise was inlaid into the darker lapis lazuli of the sky and outlined the nearby mountains. Inside the entrance of the Teton County Detention Center, I lifted the phone and identified myself.

Helping Others with Death and Dying • In whatever way someone dies, there are ways to benefit them, even after much time has passed.

Forgiveness Letting Go of Life's Hurts • As we travel the road of life, we hit bumps, have conflicts and misunderstandings. We experience daily hurts and deeper hurts. Learning to deal with and overcome these is one way we grow as souls.

Healing Sounds The Power of Harmonics • Through the principle of resonance, sound can be used to change disharmonious frequencies of the body back to their normal, healthful vibrations.

The Net of Indra • We spend our lives in a kind of amnesia, sensing disconnection that doesn't exist. Einstein called this an "optical delusion," imagining ourselves to be separate beings, cut off at the root from the rest of creation.
