Ripped Off????

Our Center for Spiritual Living Kaua`I has an amazing relationship with one of the Swamis at the Hindu Monastery of Kaua`i. We consider him one of our very special mentors. Every year, we visit him with our Sacred Journey and tour the Monastery while having wonderful spiritual and philosophical conversations. One thing about him, is […]

No Ifs, Ands, or Buts

There is one Power. It is Infinite. No Ifs, Ands or Buts. Ernest Holmes wrote this: “We mean by demonstration, bringing into our experience something which we had not experienced before; bringing it in as the result of conscious thought; and unless it is possible to do this, our whole science is a mistake and […]

Happy Birthday, Patrick Feren!

Twenty-seven years ago, I saw a man across a crowded room. I knew he was there to do a talk about acting in Los Angeles, but I didn’t know anything else about him. I remember thinking, “I’m going to know that man someday.” There was something significant about our connection and it had nothing to […]

It’s Your Birthright!

What is a birthright? The dictionary tells us it is “a particular right of possession or privilege one has from birth.” I’m not sure I knew this when I was a child. No one told me I had a birthright? I just grew up with my parents’ beliefs and teachings and then became an adult […]

Musings on Turning 70

As I about to enter a new decade, I take a deep breath and sit in wonder of the life I have lived up to this point. I cannot believe how many lives I’ve lived within this one life of 70 years. If I look back, I hardly recognize myself. Do you ever feel this […]

Daring Greatly

“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and […]

Invisible + Faith = Visible

There is a statement by Ernest Holmes, Founder of the Science of Mind and Spirit that goes like this: “The invisible passes into visibility through our faith in it.” I’d like to talk about this statement and how it relates to my life. I’ve proved this statement in many instances in my life. There is […]

You are a Shining Star!

The view from our bedroom window is of sky and forest and mountains. It’s quite spectacular and this morning it was more amazing than ever. The first thing that caught my eye were the stars and one particular star that seemed to sparkle more brightly than the others. It was vibrating. I think it might […]

Unlimited Me!

Something happened on Christmas Day that has kept me in a state of contemplation. I could just gloss over this, but I really need to think about it and shift, because it has a lot to do with where I am headed in this new year. It’s about the ability to see abundance everywhere and […]

Let It Go?

To let go means I have total faith and trust in the outcome. Letting go is the fifth step of Spiritual Mind Treatment. It is the time at which we deeply acknowledge that there is a Power that is bringing the outcome through us right now. We say “And so it is!” because we know […]
