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,

Animals – What Are They Good For?

Last week my blog discussed our cruelty to animals and the guilt that that caused us to feel, whether we recognise it or not.  This week, I wanted to remind everyone just how important animals are to our welfare, In the past, we have only considered animals of importance if we had some way to use them for our benefit.  This is the way that the ego looks at everything:

Peace = No More Guilt

It has been a while since I wrote a blog about animals, and I felt the urge today to make that up to them. The more we think about animals, the more we consider our cruel treatment of them.  The more that we consider our cruel treatment of animals, the more we can understand that the problems which we face in our lives and in our world are merely a

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

Conflict

Even though I try not to watch the news because it is so depressing, I know there seems to be a lot of conflict in the world at the moment.  What do you think is the source of this conflict? If we look to A Course in Miracles for answers, we find that the source of conflict in the world is merely a reflection of the conflict within each one

No Time Like The Present

“There’s no time like the present,” my mother used to say, when she wanted me to do something that I was procrastinating about. Perhaps what she really meant was: “There’s no time but the present.” My lessons from A Course In Miracles have taught me that, for our real spiritual selves, the present is really all that exists. I had learned previously that God is in the present moment, but

Of Course!

I started another course this week: “A Course In Miracles”. I had heard about A Course In Miracles before: Marianne Williamson wrote about it in A Return to Love, and I heard Robert Holden talk about it at I Can Do It! Although they made it sound interesting, I hadn’t felt the call to read it - until now. When selecting my next course at AIHT, I knew that this

The Hermit

Last week, if you’ll remember, I did a Tarot reading, and the card for this weekend was The Hermit. My interpretation of this card suggested that you can all be beacons of love and light to all you encounter. Some of you may be wondering just how to do that. But, the fact is, you don’t have to do anything; you just have to be something – to be your

The Full Moon

There has been much discussion about the energies surrounding the full moon this week.  It has brought up a lot of emotions for many people. The full moon is traditionally a time for releasing those issues which no longer serve us.  It is a time to look at where we are in relation to where we want to be in all aspects of our lives, and to release those issues

What Is Mental Health?

Following a conversation with someone I know, whose wife became “psychotic” several years ago, and has never recovered, I knew that my blog this week had to be about mental health. What do we know about mental health? In my opinion, not much.  Psychiatrists and psychologists, know a lot about mental illness, but I would warrant that very few really know what “mental health” looks like. In 1973, the journal,
