Silence listens

Weekly meditation for contemplation

When the mental activity in the head is non stop chatter, there will be no access to Divine wisdom.

The vital practice of emptying one's self of egoic noise and mental chatter is key to peace NOW.

We will of course move along the spiritual journey and try many things to cease mental chatter.

Here is a simple formula-

Step 1-Admit we are powerless over the egoic noise and its unmanageability

Step 2-Only God will restore the mind to perfect peace and harmony.

Step 3-Turn it all over in non-judgmental awareness to God's care.


Surrender by allowing the noise to burn off while resting in the still quiet center of being present.

Be gentle by forgiving the mental noise and the false images.

Judge not what can never be true.

Eventually all that shall remain is the sweet embrace of loves peace.

Divine wisdom is born. 

Silence listens and then inspires!


A Course in Miracles

11. God’s Son will always be indivisible. ²As we are held as one in God, so do we learn as one in Him. ³God’s Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does God proclaim His Oneness and His Son’s. ⁴Listen in silence, and do not raise your voice against Him. ⁵For He teaches the miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division disappears. ⁶Teach like Him here, and you will remember that you have always created like your Father. ⁷The miracle of creation has never ceased, having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. ⁸This is the Will of God for all creation, and all creation joins in willing this.

12. Those who remember always that they know nothing, and who have become willing to learn everything, will learn it.²But whenever they trust themselves, they will not learn. ³They have destroyed their motivation for learning by thinking they already know. ⁴Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding go together and never can be found alone. ⁵Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of God they be not separate. ⁶They are cause and effect, each to the other, so where one is absent the other cannot be.

The Presence

Weekly meditation for contemplation

Available on youtube

      https://youtu.be/QlfRev80GIU     



Awake, aware, alive. 


In This Moment recognize the Presence of God in the Sun. 


In This Moment recognize the Presence of God in a blade of grass. 


In This Moment recognize the Presence of God within. 


In This Moment recognize the Presence of God in others. 


In this moment recognize the Presence of God beyond the ego's veiling. 


In this moment accept the purification of all ego perceptions, and gaze upon the things of the Earth that are mere echoes of the Presence of God.


It is not the echo that matters, 

it is only the Presence of GOD that does.


Be still and rest in God's Presence.

7. Miracles are everyone’s right, but purification is necessary first. 

(ACIM, T-1.I.7:1)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


⁶Therefore, it is not the form of the question that matters, nor how it is asked. ⁷The form of the answer, if given by God, will suit your need as you see it. ⁸This is merely an echo of the reply of His Voice. ⁹The real sound is always a song of thanksgiving and of Love.

3. You cannot, then, ask for the echo. ²It is the song that is the gift. ³Along with it come the overtones, the harmonics, the echoes, but these are secondary. ⁴In true prayer you hear only the song. ⁵All the rest is merely added. ⁶You have sought first the Kingdom of Heaven, and all else has indeed been given you.

(ACIM, S-1.I.2:6–3:6)
