Today it was 28 degrees in Dallas, Texas. As the plane flew over Dallas at 20,000 feet, the Shaman danced in the sunshine in his chariot. Viewing the clouds above which the chariot rode, he knew the cold underneath them would soon be evident as he would land on the grounds below. But in the ever present here and now, the warmth of the sun on the palm of his hands confirmed yet again, when you fly above the line of mediocrity in total gratitude and mindfulness, nothing is ever wrong anywhere! ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY

Salaam(peace) children Sa'di, the Persian(I could say Iranian, but that word alone can set one of you on the wrong wave length, how funny!!) poet and a master in the Sufi traditions says: "All of humanity is but one body, from one essence they are made alike, so that if one part of this body should be in pain, all other parts shall not feel rest or comfort". This fellow knew that some 800 years ago! Can we see it today? How can my hand do its work while my legs hurt so badly? How can my eyes enjoy beauty to its fullest extent, while my heart aches for lack of love and union? Indeed until we heal this body of our humanity and tend to its pains with care and compassionate wisdom, the Earth or the Heavens, neither can be a resting place for any one of us the parts to this whole. See yourself in everyone my child, see everyone as yourself and give without expectations, as though you are giving to your self. If I am the index finger of this body of our humanity, then let me st...

Salaam(peace) children: Far too many voices telling everyone in the country about what is "wrong" with the world. Let your voice my good child, be about only solutions and WHAT IS GOOD WITH OUR WORLD! Words are very much more than sounds or digits, once spoken they reverberate far into the universal ONENESS. Let our voices be ONLY of good and light and HOPE. NO BLAME, NO SHAME, NO GUILT, ONLY ONENESS, ONLY ACTIONS TOWARDS WHAT WORKS AND WHAT IS GOOD. ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY

Salaam (peace) children; To be, simply being at any moment aught not to be Painful a torment enormous impossibilities suffering emotions up and down, a yoyo Being after all is a process running a designed pattern of energies and light what might "I" have to do with the why and the whom of it all? one moment low next I stand so tall An air breathing human dependent on the very design of delivery so my life may be sustained! if no air is here where am I? Show up for life daily accept what is whether it pleases you or not No thought is best if you can of this ,the other and that Don't bother to decipher life delete the need to understand my good child Every event is an unfolding of the source of life unto itself, from itself, by itself you and I my love are shadows of that dancing source How can a shadow say "I am"? To be, aught not to be so full of you and me it aught to be as a tree giving and receiving being, without attachment to the drama that flows around eve...

Salaam(peace) children; The toughest lesson to learn for most intermediate to advanced students of spiritual growth into ONENESS , is how to recognize and let go of the EGO games. Who gets offended for one reason or another almost daily? Who's feelings get hurt when expectations are not met? Who sits at judgment of others as to their worthiness and place in life? Who gets satisfaction from praise? Who collects stuff of this world and proudly displays them? You want another good one? Who is so patriotic as to forget the ONENESS of life? Zeal for the religion or belief systems? Pride in a piece of painted cloth?These are SRPC's, Societal Ritualistic Pagan Ceremonies! All, is EGO, vanity of vanities as king Solomon would say, all is vanity my child. The moment we dishonor a teacher or an elder, the times when we dishonor and destroy the face of our mother Earth, we have allowed the Ego to be in charge. How about when we strut our stuff of positions and possessions? If There is ...

Salaam(peace) children; The hands that write the lines that come to be, Who is the one reading, who is the writer? Being mindful is like having a bell around your ankles, jing, gling, jing gling The ear hears the sound, the mind registers the awakened soul is revived by the connections of what is God is in motion, In so many forms, in so many ways Mind is not a big enough of a vessel to hold the essence of such Beingness What will keep you connected this day my child? what sound, what vision, a breath perhaps? Do take the time, to stay connected to THE SOURCE How else will you stay calm to resolve conflicts if not through the daily connection through mindfulness and attentiveness? Humble beings, know not God but live indifferent to all much as a tree, there is no knowing to its nature giving oxygen, never saying a word about the life giving essence it provides. only being the tree, in all moments Yet the cell is conscious of all things and death is only another journey when God is movi...
