Miracles

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, inspiration | 4

Life is a miracle ~ Spirit

As humans, we often talk about miracles as if they were mysterious events, beyond human understanding. What if they were, instead, ordinary everyday happenings?

Spirit

What Miracles Are Not

What you call “miracles” are precisely the opposite of how your human intellects define them. You see them as extraordinary events. They are not that.

What Miracles Are

Miracles are so ordinary, you usually are blind to them. Take that pregnant woman above. Do see her and her baby as a miracle?… Read more

Sex and Your Soul

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, mind body soul | 8

sex-soul …intimacy means more than sex…. You are intimate when you are fully with another, no matter what.
Neale Donald Walsch

After reading that title, you’re probably asking yourself, “What on earth do sex and my soul have to do with each other?”

Good question.

Spirit

The myth of sex

Among the greatest myths you have been taught about humans is the myth of sex.

Sex, except under very limited circumstances, is a sin. Or, at minimum, a deviation from the “right” path you’re supposed to be following.… Read more

Karma: What Is It?

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, body mind spirit, channeling | 6

Karma (in Buddhism and Hinduism): The sum of a person’s actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.
Oxford English Dictionary

budha-in-meditation

Buddha in Meditation

What is Karma?

Karma is a confusing concept for many folks. You can see karma as the ruler and master of your life. Your present lifetime then becomes a prison from which you can never escape.

That’s a dismally depressing way to live out your days.

What does A Course in Miracles say about karma?

Euthanasia: Blessing or Bloodbath?

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 6

old age-dementia-euthanasia

I know the image above is grim, and perhaps offensive to some folks. But a fact of physical life, regardless of our spiritual or religious beliefs (or lack of them), is death is inevitable.

A Euthanasia Story

Not long ago, a dear lifelong friend told me her brother had been diagnosed with a painful, fatal ailment. He didn’t have long to live.

They live in an area where euthanasia is legal and socially acceptable. So the brother, who was mentally competent almost to the end, chose euthanasia.… Read more

The Breathtaking Power Within

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, health and well-being | 6

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.
Norman Vincent Peale

Some time ago, I watched an interview with a man who was obviously on a conscious path of spiritual growth. I don’t recall his name. But I’ve never forgotten his words.

He told about the time he was sitting in a cafeteria by himself. Suddenly, a stranger walked up to him, and stared at him for a moment.… Read more

Miracles and Hate

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, health and well-being | 14

Today we go beyond the grievances, to look upon the miracle instead.
A Course in Miracles

Can you think of someone you hold a grievance against, perhaps even hate? I think most of us could, at least at one time or another in our lives.

What do miracles and hate have to do with each other?

Spirit

You’ve heard us talk about oneness before. A principle of oneness states what you give you receive. You cannot give to another without receiving the same for yourself.… Read more

Immortality: Hoax or Victory over Death?

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 4

Immortality lies not in the things you leave behind, but in the people your life has touched. ~ Anonymous

The quest for immortality is as old as humanity itself. The methods humans have explored to see if they can live forever are countless.

What’s the meaning of it all? Would you want to live forever? Would you want to live forever in a physical body, or some variation of one?

An article I read recently in The Guardian talked about some Silicon Valley folks, obviously with a lot of money, searching for the magic key to immortality.… Read more

A Little-Known Fact about Reality

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, mind body soul | 4

Perception is a mirror, not a fact. ~ Lesson 304, A Course in Miracles

welcome to reality

This morning, I came across what some would consider a revolutionary article. It suggested reality is not objective. The article was based on a new quantum physics experiment, reported in MIT Technology Review.

Among other things, the article said, “…under the right conditions, two people can observe the same event, see two different things happen, and both be correct. (Emphasis is mine.)

What many might consider revolutionary is the idea both people can be correct.… Read more

Secret Courage: A True Story

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, compassion | 8

People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest.

~ Herman Hesse, German poet and novelist ~

We’ve told this story before, many years ago. But it’s worth revisiting, especially in the context of today’s world, where courage, secret or not, seems so rare.

When we were kids, my brother, cousins, and I loved to roam through the forests and fields, hills and valleys of our rural home area.

Back in those long-ago days, it was perfectly safe.… Read more

Do You Pray? Here’s Why You Shouldn’t

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, manifesting | 14

If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is “Thank you,” that would suffice. ~ Meister Eckhart

We chose that title deliberately, knowing we might risk the wrath of some folks. But if you think about it, what do people usually pray for? And why?

Spirit

Those two questions Johnny asked above are meant to get you thinking about prayer, and the reasons you pray. It sounds radical, but we support the notion of not praying. Let us explain.… Read more

Honoring Mother Earth

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, Global oneness | 6

Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not every man’s greed. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

This week we’re doing something a bit different.

I live just outside Yellowstone National Park. According to park authorities, The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is home to about 700 grizzly bears, an endangered species.

I know there’s a lot of controversy in the United States today about endangered wildlife. I don’t intend to get into that controversy here. But I did want to talk about honoring Mother Earth and all life for whom she is home.… Read more

Mastering Simplicity

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, spirituality | 5

Is it really necessary to study deep philosophy and all the world religions to be truly spiritual? ~ Ted Murray

Stonehenge

If you’re reading this, you’re probably on a deliberate, conscious path of spiritual growth. I am too.

But do we make our spiritual paths more complicated than they need to be? If you’re like I was for many years, you make spirituality—and even life itself—anything but simple. It’s as if simplicity was a curse.

In Ted Murray’s words above, he’s implying many of us ignore simplicity on our spiritual paths.… Read more

Mirror Mirror on the Wall: Is What Seems Real, Real At All?

This week we’re featuring a post from our friend, Karen Gordon. It’s pretty thought-provoking. It’s longer than our usual posts, but I think you’ll enjoy it. Karen’s a terrific writer. Here she is:

It happened spontaneously the first time, and I kept it to myself. The second, third, fourth (and so on), it happened with intention and focus.… Read more

Thoughts on Life after Death

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 16

I know beyond the shadow of a doubt that there is no death the way we understood it. The body dies, but not the soul. ~ Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

spirit-life-after-death

We received some deeply moving comments on last week’s post, Life and Death. It’s obviously a subject of universal interest , as sooner or later, it touches us all.

Teresa, one of our readers, sent us her thoughts on the passing of her grandfather. With her permission, we’re publishing her touching story this week.… Read more

Life and Death

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 16

Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God. ~ A Course in Miracles

Most of us have likely dealt with the death of a loved one. So we know the pain and sadness that can create. But there is always a “silver lining” in the dark clouds of death.

Spirit has talked about life and death many times over the years. If you’re reading this, you know life is real, death is unreal. But what does that mean?… Read more

9 Uplifting Blog Posts from 2018 You Can’t Ignore

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, inspiration | 0

uplifting-blog-posts

As 2018 draws to a close, I thought we’d review some of the year’s most uplifting blog posts. These are not necessarily the ones getting the most traffic, but those you, our readers, told me you found most uplifting.

1. Angels In Our Midst

Have you ever met a friendly stranger, only to later realize that person simply did not exist? I did, about a year ago. We all probably have such experiences, sometimes without being aware of them.

2. The Voice of an Angel

Spirit:
“The reason most of you do not hear the angels, or experience them, is not because you don’t believe in them.… Read more

The Unforgettable Street Sweeper

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, kindness | 5

Your angels often come to you well-disguised. ~ John Cali & Spirit

unforgettable-angel

In my younger days, one of our family’s neighbors was a street sweeper—a pretty humble vocation. Like my family and most of our neighbors, Giuseppe and his family were Italian immigrants.

We lived in a small farm town, where almost everyone was friendly. With one exception.

The “Americans,” as they called themselves, harshly discriminated against the Italians. Even in our little Roman Catholic parish, the pastor required segregated seating.… Read more

The Tragedy of Phantom 309

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 4

The world is now too small for anything but brotherhood. ~ Arthur Powell Davies, Unitarian minister

burning-truck-tragedy

You’ve probably heard of haunted houses. But have you ever heard of a haunted truck?

Let me take you back to January 29, 1963.

That day, trucker John W. “Pete” Trudelle drove his tanker truck from Keene, New Hampshire to Boston, Massachusetts. In Boston, Pete loaded his truck with 4,600 gallons of gasoline. Then he headed back to Keene.

He never made it home.

As Pete headed north out of Boston back to Keene on the Newburyport Turnpike, he passed under a bridge.… Read more

Evil and Its Battle with Good

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, spiritual power | 3

What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil. ~ Friedrich Nieitzche,
Beyond Good and Evil

Even if, like me, you pay little attention to the news media today, it seems obvious there’s an angry war going on between “good” and “evil.”

This week we’re featuring an article by my dear friend and brother, Ted Murray. Ted’s an accomplished writer and spiritual teacher. He’s also a great tennis coach.

In Ted’s message today he talks about the battle between the forces of good and evil, and what we can do about it.… Read more

The Death Bells Are Ringing For Politics As Usual

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, inspiration | 14

Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~ U.S. President Ronald Reagan

vulture-death-bells

If you live in the United States, you’re probably aware (maybe painfully so) next Tuesday, November 6, is a national election day. The country’s political scene appears more negative and angry than I can ever remember.

If you’ve been with us a while, you may know I’m nonpartisan, apolitical, neutral — however you want to describe it. … Read more

Turning Hate Into Love

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, relationships | 10

Whether one is Hindu or a Muslim or a Christian, how you live your life is proof that you are or not fully His. We cannot condemn or judge or pass words that will hurt people. We don’t know in what way God is appearing to that soul and what God is drawing that soul to. Therefore, who are we to condemn anybody? ~ Mother Teresa

Twenty years ago this month, a young man named Matthew Shepard was brutally murdered here in Wyoming.… Read more

The Way of the Warrior

Love is the choice to see the divinity in all that is. ~ Spirit with John Cali

warrior-woman-wolf

Many of you have heard the words of our MP4, The Way of the Warrior. I thought today, we’d share the lyrics, for those who’ve never seen or heard them.

Spirit

The Way of the Warrior is simple. However, as you have often heard me say, it may be simple but it’s not always easy. Today I would like to give you a few of my simple guidelines or “rules of the road,” if you will.… Read more

The Agony of Anxiety and Depression

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, health and well-being | 12

Just walk slowly in the time after the sun sets and before night descends. Feel the breeze, smell the flowers, hear the trees’ leaves rustle and the birds sing. Watch the stars begin to emerge. ~ Dan Rather, journalist

Peace at Sunset in Tuscany, Italy

Journalist Dan Rather knows a thing or two about finding peace in the present moment, despite a long career spent in anything but peaceful circumstances. Listen to what he says here:

One of my favorite things long has been taking a leisurely stroll with wife Jean at twilight time.… Read more

The Magic and Power of Self-Love

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, life purpose | 10

Self-love is not opposed to the love of other people. You cannot really love yourself and do yourself a favor without doing people a favor, and vice versa. ~ Karl Menninger, M.D.

self-love-power-magic

As Dr. Menninger says above, when you give to yourself, you automatically give to others. That means when you show self-love, you are automatically loving others. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Yet it continually amazes me how few of us really believe and accept we should love ourselves.

A week or so ago, one of our readers wrote us a heart-wrenching letter.… Read more

The Time of the Great Awakening

by John Cali | posted in: Blog, channeling, Global oneness | 0

As you look around the world today and see so many things coming to the surface that are not in line with your own values and the world you want to see, know that you are witnessing the dissolving and releasing of the old way. All these things that have been hidden before and are now coming into your awareness are not the world you want to inhabit or leave to your children or their children. The good news is your desire and passion for creating a new world is being ignited.
