Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them. ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944), “The Little Prince,” 1943

Kids On a Sofa by Anarres

In our last blog post, How To Tell If You Are a Wise Old Soul–16 Ways, one of Spirit’s “ways” was “You acknowledge you are your own highest and best authority.”

That is not a truth most of us were taught as little children.… Read more

Wisdom doesn’t automatically come with old age. Nothing does–except wrinkles. It’s true, some wines improve with age. But only if the grapes were good in the first place. ~ Abigail Van Buren

The Wisdom of Solomon by James Tissot

Ever since I started on this spiritual path, many years ago, I’ve heard terms like “enlightenment,” “ascension,” “wise old soul,” and other similar ones. I’m sure you have too.

I cannot honestly say I ever fully understood what those words meant–they seem to mean different things to different people.… Read more

Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. ~ Helen Keller, 1880-1968

A couple days ago I read an interesting article about the Ebola crisis in Africa. The author was questioning how such suffering could exist if God is all-powerful.

Good question.

Spirit

The “bottom line” here is God is NOT all-powerful. Does that shock you? It’s true.

God does not will humans to suffer, either deliberately or by neglect.… Read more

A Note To a Friend

To the soul, there is hardly anything more healing than friendship. ~ Thomas Moore, 1779-1852

Our recent post, The Prayer of God, received some really nice comments from you, our dear readers. One of you asked if we had any more articles by the anonymous writer. Since then I’ve found several more.

We’re publishing one of those today. It’s similar in tone to The Prayer of God. I hope you’ll like it.

A Note To a Friend

Late at night, when the bottle is run dry,
the last lights welcoming the dark,
and your thoughts drifting towards sweet dreams,
I’ll be dreaming of you.… Read more

My work is done. Why wait? ~ Eastman Kodak founder George Eastman, in his suicide note written after long enduring intense pain from his degenerating spine.

George Eastman 1854-1932

You’ve probably heard about Brittany Maynard, the young woman with terminal brain cancer who decided to commit suicide earlier this week.

As I started writing this post my sister told me an elderly cousin, closing in on 100 years, had just died. She lived a good, long, and happy life.

Brittany, at the other end of the spectrum of life, was only 29.… Read more

Boo! What Scares You? by Pat Ruppel

It’s October and today we celebrate Halloween, where we see scary costumes, cornfield mazes and spooky ghost houses. It’s a fun time for kids and adults to let go and pretend.

It’s also the season when we’re more acceptable of the world of the paranormal. Perhaps we’re even open to tune in and listen for something beyond what we normally hear and see.

Our bodies feel the subtle energy shifts, as Nature begins to slumber. The trees drop their leaves and the plants die with the cold temperatures.… Read more

There is no death because what God created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to God does not exist. ~ A Course in Miracles

Since Halloween (aka All Saints’ Eve) is two days from now, I thought this would be a good time to talk about dead people.

When my son was growing up, one of his and my favorite pastimes was visiting graveyards on gloomy days or at night.… Read more

Trust your angels to catch your wish and bring it to you in a delightfully surprising way. ~ Doreen Virtue

Over the years many of our readers have asked about angels. I personally have been fascinated by the subject ever since I was a little boy. I still remember my mother reading angel stories to us at bedtime.

Today we’re featuring an article by my dear friend, Mary Ellen, aka “Angel Scribe.” She’s a talented writer and widely published in several different areas, including angels.… Read more

The Prayer of God

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

The past few weeks I’ve been going through my house as I get ready to move. I’ve come across many stored items I’d long forgotten about. Some I’m keeping, but most I’m releasing.

I’m well organized and keep my home neat and clean. But I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how much lighter the energy of the house feels as I clear out what I no longer want or need.… Read more

There Is No Such Thing As Objective Reality by John Cali and Spirit

Aham brahmasmi. ~ Sanskrit mantra, translated as “I am the wholeness of all creation.”

The Universe
US National Aeronautics and Space Administration

We’ve all heard it said we create our own realities. But what exactly does that mean? And how do we do it?

Spirit

First, let’s start this discussion with who each of you really are. Or, more to the point, who you are not.

You are not:

Your body
Your mind
Your family identity
Your ethnic background
Your job, your profession
Father
Mother
Son
Daughter
And so on

You are not any of those labels you use to identify yourselves while you are in your physical bodies.… Read more

Do not ask Spirit to heal the body. Ask rather that Spirit teach you the right perception of the body. ~ A Course in Miracles

Two days ago I was out for a walk in the beautiful fall weather we’ve been having. Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, a snarling dog hurled himself at me, taking a chunk out of my leg. As I defended myself, he bit me on the wrist. Finally I managed to chase him off. With my leg and wrist bleeding, I painfully limped back home.… Read more

When Was the Last Time You Saw God? by John Cali and Spirit

God is not a Christian. ~ Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Man Made In the Image of God

In the Tuning In movie my spirit guides defined God as “All that is.” Just exactly what does that mean?

Spirit

You see God every day. Let us count the ways.

When you look at yourself in the mirror you are seeing God.

When you look into the eyes of another living being you are seeing God.

When you watch a golden sunrise, a peaceful flowing river, a beautiful flower, a butterfly–that’s God.

Grand Canyon
US National Park Service

Have you ever read the book by John Steinbeck about his travels with his dog Charley, in search of the true America? I did many years ago, and remembering this it somehow triggered me to one day travel to the U.S. with my wife. I was also in search of promising and overwhelming landscapes, of people, animals, and the way of living, as well as anything that would come our way. The main reason, though, was to enter on a spiritual journey to the New World.… Read more

Every child is born a genius. ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

Part of the genius of children is they know how to love themselves. And they never feel guilty about it.

Spirit

Loving yourself unconditionally is the single most important thing you can do in this lifetime.

If you cannot celebrate the miracle that is you, you will find little joy or reason in celebrating anything or anyone else. Your ability to love, appreciate, and celebrate yourself is the key to all you seek.… Read more

Do You Really Know Who You Are? by John Cali and Spirit

You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection. ~ Buddha

Events are not things that happen to you. They are materialized experiences formed by you, according to your expectations and beliefs. ~ Seth

Yesterday was the 30th anniversary of the death of Jane Roberts, the channel for Seth. I remember the day clearly, as my family and I were visiting my mother in New York State. Mom lived just a few miles from where Jane and her husband, Rob Butts, lived.

I was introduced to Seth by Tom, a good friend and a psychotherapist.… Read more

What I Learned from Jehovah’s Witnesses by John Cali and Spirit

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness. ~ Dalai Lama

Two friendly young women with two cute little kids knocked on my front door a few days ago.

One of the women handed me a Jehovah’s Witnesses brochure. From past experience, I figured I was in for a long lecture right there at my front door.… Read more

Gratitude is our most direct line to God and the angels. If we take the time, no matter how crazy and troubled we feel, we can find something to be thankful for. ~ Terry Lynn Taylor

Giving Thanks

Have you ever asked yourself that question? I never did—till recently. Here’s Spirit.

Most people find it easy to be grateful for all the “good” things in their lives. There is certainly nothing wrong with that, and we highly recommend you all give thanks every day for your blessings.… Read more

There is no death. ~ A Course in Miracles Heaven by Giovanni di Paolo NOTE: This post is longer than we usually publish. But I trust you’ll find it useful. A few weeks ago one of our readers, Christine Disano-Davenport, sent us a letter. She had recently watched a film and read some books about life after death. Though she enjoyed them, they were disturbing to her. As she put it, “…what is bothering me now is that it (the film and books) is shaking my belief about what happens after we make our transition.”

Those on the other side want to talk to you as much as you want to talk to them. ~ John Holland, psychic medium

I had an unusual experience a few days ago with Cassie, my brother’s and sister-in-law’s cat.

I was house-sitting for them while they were out of town. Cassie is quite a character, and amazingly intelligent. I often talk to her in ordinary English (and telepathically too). She always understands.… Read more

True humor is fun—it does not put down, kid, or mock. It makes people feel wonderful, not separate, different, and cut off. True humor has beneath it the understanding that we are all in this together. ~ Hugh Prather

Beware so long as you live, of judging people by appearances. ~ Jean de La Fontaine, French poet

Hobos, United States Library of Congress

Years ago we wrote a post about a hobo in my western New York State hometown. For many years he lived in the woods by the railroad tracks, not far from town. Although people would pass by his little shack now and then, he never spoke to anyone.

We always thought he was just a sad, pitiful lost soul, with no family or support.… Read more
