  • Freedom from Desire – I’m working on it . . .

    “Freedom is secured not by the fulfilling of one’s desires, but by the removal of desire.” — Epictetus (via samsaranmusing)

  • Learning to Love Unconditionally

    My trip to France and Italy recently has taught me much about myself and loving unconditionally.  As I observed my past relationships with others, I have noticed that we unconsciously place conditions on others in our lives. What can they do for me?  How can they help me in my life?  What do they have…

  • Communion with Others through Nonresistance

    On my return trip from Italy, I stopped through Copenhagen, Denmark to learn about the culture and people, and for the Copenhagen Jazz Festival.  I brought warm weather from Italy with me.  Ironically, I met a Danish couple from Copenhagen on the hiking trail in Italy who helped me, and told me the weather hopefully…

  • Losing Ego and Fear

    I arrived in Milan by train.  After checking into the hotel, I headed out to see the Duomo or Catholic Church in the Plaza del Duomo.  After dinner and sightseeing, I became lost walking in the confusing streets of Milan.  In the past, my fears of the unknown prevented me from walking alone particularly in…

  • Living Beyond Dependency

    Dependency is emotional attachment we begin to develop as infants. We become attached to our parents for survival.  Our egos begin to attach to those who we identify as our protectors and providers.  We learn this through human conditioning.  Even for healthy adults, we separate from our parents emotionally and physically in order to become…

  • My Stages of Emotional Healing through Releasing the Ego

    During the past two years, I have gained some insights into emotional healing process.  After the rise of my Kundalini, I experienced many energy blocks in my chakras and energy field resulting in physical pains and discomforts.  During these two years, I worked feverishly to heal my emotional landscape in order to release these energy…

  • The Power of Ego

    In the teachings of the Christian Church, there is reference to evil or Satan.  I believe that under Jesus Christ’s teachings, the reference to this evil is the actions of the ego within each of us.  We have within each of us the Divine and the Ego. If we observe evil or harm in this…

  • Touched By the Divine

    As I sat at breakfast in Cinque Terra, Italy, I found the Divine within while consciously observing without judgment my surroundings. It was an AHA moment that I felt my higher self and that we can access her at anytime by just being in the moment because this where she resides. I healed my heart in Italy.…

  • Ego and Mental Illness

    I have had an opportunity to observe those with mental illness. What I have observed is that they have extremely over active egos.  This is particular true of those who exhibit paranoid symptoms.  These individuals perceive slights and project harm when it does not exist in reality. What I believe is happening is that many…
