Don't Miss the Meteor Showers!

.


Faith can be dangerous, when it blinds us to the present moment.
When applying any spiritual technique it is crucial to be aware
of the results we are receiving.

If we are getting crap results then it’s either time
to reevaluate our application of the instructions
or simply find a new teacher.

But if our perception is held captive
by our faith fueled imagination
we will be blind to the present moment,
and all it’s important teachings…

just like the astronomer,
so busy, hunched over his charts
that he fails to look up
and see the splendor of a meteor shower.




Come let us learn from this foolish fellow’s mistake.
Let’s have the courage to take a long hard look
at the results that we experience from our daily spiritual practice.

Christ taught that the spiritually hungry would be blessed.

If we notice the ways that our current spiritual practice falls short
then we could cultivate spiritual dissatisfaction,
from that comes the hunger that could fuel both the enthusiasm and the courage
to take our next step on the journey to enlightenment.


The Wednesday series of webinars begins in just 3 weeks.


May you and yours be
happy and healthy!
