Look Up and See the Beauty

Sunrise 1

Look UP and See the Beauty of God,
the Earth, & Mankind!

Dear Friends,
What a glorious morning this was, as I looked up into the sky to watch a magnificent sunrise. It was mystical and I felt the essence of God envelope me.   I watched the colors of gold, coral, pink, yellow, and blue cascade across the hills, clouds and sky. I felt the  Glory of God shinning on me and  all of us saying “All is well, all is good, all is beautiful and so are you!” I felt a profound sense of peace and love coursing through me as if the colors touched the essence of my soul. God was saying in me, “Look UP and bring forth the new day with your magnificence, your beauty, your glorious being.  Be who I created you to be.  Know your ONENESS with and as Me and All there it.”

Parliament of World Religions 2015

Dear Friends,

The Parliament of World Religions was an amazing and indescribable event!  It is something to experience!

Lectures, panels, cultural performances, breakout sessions, experiential activities, cultural exhibits, a FREE Sangar lunch provided by the Sikh Community of Salt Lake and more cannot describe the Diversity of Humanity (10,000 people) and the immense love among people coming together from more than 50 world religions and cultures.  It really demonstrates INTERFAITH is a movement growing by leaps and bounds. We need to be grounded in the love for our own faith and at the same time, expand to experience the global network.

The NEXT Parliament will be in 2 years, not 5.

Where and when has not been decided yet.

Here are a few photos…

Dr. Abigail’s  Presentation was great!

Have Fun, Play!

“The playing adult steps sideward into another reality; the playing child advances forward to new stages of mastery.”
-Erik H. Erikson

Dear Friends,

We had a wonderful visit with our niece and her family for two days. My sweet grandnieces kept us entertained and filled with love and joy as they discovered new and wondrous things inside and outside  the house.
They loved walking the labyrinth and finding the little crystals and mini stones placed among the river rocks. They contributed a few small stones to the labyrinth as well.
They loved playing with all the trains, houses, animals, and elves in our North Pole Dept 56 Christmas collection. Our Thomas Train “hat” ended up in the Disneyland of the North Pole and one little moose seemed to “lose” an antler. Watching them play so creatively made us laugh. What a fun romp!
We  took a trip to the Children’s Museum where they could play on swinging ropes, paint, draw, make clay objects,  blow bubbles, build things, pretend in playhouses and sail boats.
When was the last time you played to just have fun, with no agenda?    I have been so pre-occupied with the Parliament, it was a blessing to take a day off, have fun and focus on these little girls and our delightful niece and her husband.  Fabulous parents! My niece and I have teaching in common so we shared many funny stories of our experiences. Laughter always accompanies FUN!

Our Sacred Gift

The Intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.  We have created a society that honors the servant and forgotten the gift.”
-Albert Einstein

Intuition

Dear Friends,
This wonderful quote by Albert Einstein, math and science genius, reminds me of the New Thought saying,
“Love leads the Way
Law makes the way happen.”
At this period of time in our history, science and spirituality are finding common ground.  Intuitively the Avatars and Mystics have always known our intuition is the guiding light of our being. When it feels right, we speak our word from our heart -mind into Law, and the way opens up for us.
Today, I ask you where is your  intuitive mind guiding you to do, to be, to go, to act?  What is stopping you?
Remember when God calls you, God will open the doors for you, maintain and sustain you in the spirit calling of your heart and mind intuition.  Intuition is God speaking directly to you.
TRUST in it.  Let go of any fear, uncertainty, the ‘what if’s’ you may be thinking.
TRUST in the guidance.  Say YES to It.
SPEAK your word (rational mind) into  the LAW of Mind and the right and true path for you will be made
perfectly clear.
Our intuitive mind and heart are our sacred gifts from our Creator. Our rational mind is our servant and when we speak words with reverence, trust and certainty, we Trust the Source Mind to bring forth the Divine Outcome that is for our highest good.   Intuition is a sacred gift. Words spoken into the Law is a sacred gift.
Use both well.
