Who Created this Illness?

I have been accused on occasion of telling people they created their illness. In fact, this is a prevalent criticism of those who investigate the Science of Mind and Other New Thought philosophies. What do we truly teach about this subject and do we profess that we create our diseases? The answer for me is […]

The Process in Healing

This past Sunday, our talk title at Center or Spiritual Living Kaua`i was “Love is in the Air.” It was the ending to a month celebrating Love. Not love as an emotional response in the world of form, but the deep Love that is the essence of each and everyone of us. “Love is the […]

What is Faith (Really)?

We all have Faith. It is a gift of Divine Intelligence imbued in our consciousness. We use Faith all the time. We have Faith in something. Sometimes that something is not in the highest order for us, but still we have faith in it. Some of us think that if we have faith that our […]

Calling All Interior Designers

We are all interior designers. The question is what are we designing? Would we hire ourselves to design our lives? Are we designing with a consciousness that is ready to face a changing world? COVID19 wasn’t[ the beginning of the world in change. It has always been changing. Change is who we are, as we […]

Our Beloved Krishna

Our Beloved Krishna The incessant rain of last week here on Kaua`i was not comforting at all. First of all you need to know that Prince Krishna, our cat was emotionally and physically and mystically driven to the rain. He lost his family in the floods of Haena in April of 2018. We were told […]

Be My Valentine

We were at my sister’s big Long Island wedding and I had just completed singing the father daughter dance “O Mio Babbino Caro” from the opera Gianni Schicchi (“Oh my dear Daddy, please let me marry him…”). My father […]

Love Always,

Love ALWAYS. What does this mean? We are Love. There is no escaping it. Love is our mind, our soul, our body. We were born of Love, a Cosmic Energy of Creativity. The play of Life Upon Itself. Ernest Holmes wrote, “Love is the self-givingness of the Spirit through the desire of Life to express […]

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled

I have an outlook on all that has occurred and is still occurring in this world of conditions. I believe in the evolution of our soul as individuals and as a planet. I believe that beyond the worldly conditions that something great is unfolding. I believe that the more we turn inward for our answers, […]

Use It or Lose It

Based on my talk at CSL Kaua`i 1/24/21 Last night I had a dream about tomatoes. Funny, since tomatoes are a big part of my upbringing. I grew up in an Italian-American household. I keep tomatoes on my counter (not my windowsill) all the time and use them daily. In this dream, the tomatoes on […]

Turn Away from the Condition

In the teaching called The Science of Mind and Spirit we have a mental tool to use when wanting to change something for the better in our lives. It states to “turn entirely away from the condition.” (Ernest Holmes). This statement is sometimes misconstrued to mean that we are in denial of what is really […]
