Putting Christ into Christmas

I thought I would do things a little differently for my blog this week.  This week, I picked a card from a Tarot deck for inspiration.  (I used the Archangel Power Tarot deck from Doreen Virtue and Radleigh Valentine.) The card I picked was the 5 of Ariel. The traditional 5 of Pentacles, which this card replaces, is often seen as a negative card, but I don’t see this card

Embracing Islam

Like me, you may have only thought of Islam as a religion filled with rituals and rules.  Perhaps, like me, you found it hard to understand how a Muslim could have a personal spiritual experience in the midst of so many rigorous practices.  Perhaps, instead, you imagined every Muslim to be just like the many extremist “Islamists” we hear about in the media involved in brutality and terrorist activities. It

The Divine Ego

By the time I sit in front of my computer each week to write my blog, I usually know what it is going to be about.  I usually receive some inspiration in the form of a song, or a thought appears in my mind whilst meditating, or just while I’m going about my work around the house. This morning, I had a thought of what to write about, but immediately

Rescue

I saw an article on facebook recently about a woman who had been rescued after 7 years on a desert island.  According to the article, she had lost her mates and her boat in heavy seas, and ended up on a desert island, where she lived on coconuts, until she finally managed to kill a goat, which apparently took some effort.  The story said she was rescued after a kid

Lighten Up on Yourself

2015 is already shaping up to be a wonderful year for me, not so much because of anything that has happened or anything I’ve done, but I seem to have been realising the effects of a New Year’s resolution, without ever having consciously made one.  If I had made one, the resolution would have been “Lighten up on yourself!” I had heard the words for years from my angels and

Peace On Earth

I am in the process of reading Sonia Choquette’s book called Walking Home – A Pilgrimage from Humbled to Healed.  It is the story of her pilgrimage to walk the Camino, an arduous journey of some 800 kilometres from the French border to Santiago de Compostela in northern Spain.  Whilst the journey seemed rather tortuous to her body, she found that her mind and spirit were freed of many burdens

Reconciliation

After studying A Course in Miracles, I have come a lot closer to reconciling many of the different beliefs of different religions which I have learned about.  Not being an expert on any religion, I would be grateful if you point out any beliefs which I inadvertently misrepresent. I think I have resolved a couple of the major differences between Christianity and Islam in relation to Jesus’ death and his

There Is No Order Of Difficulty In Miracles

I am getting closer to the end of my study of the text of A Course in Miracles.  Although I can’t say that I have enjoyed every minute of it, I have been filled with joy for most of my time in studying it.  It has brought up some issues in me that need release, and at times I have been confused about it, but after just about finishing it,

Aucune Idée – I Haven’t Got A Clue

When I asked for guidance about what I could write my blog about this week, the thought came to me in French “Aucune idée”.  “Great”, I thought, “my spiritual helpers are going on strike – taking a week off and flying off to Maui to be with Doreen Virtue maybe”.  But later, I realised that this really was to be the subject of my blog. Often when we follow our

FP – The Kingdom Of Heaven

I started reading the book, E2, by Pam Grout, a few days ago.  This book has a number of experiments, which theoretically prove that the Law Of Attraction works, and that we can manifest our own reality. I thought: “This is great.  If I can do the experiments and prove that it works, my belief system will change, such that I will know for certain that I am a powerful
