Do We Really Need Crisis In Order to Surrender?

Every now and then, when I hear a piece of perfect wisdom, I am compelled to share it in its pure form – no paraphrasing or commentary. Such was the case with a recent audio interview I heard with Derek Rydall about the law of emergence. He said something that was so beautiful and perfectly applicable to anyone challenged with the crisis of MS or other chronic illness that I just had to transcribe it for you to read here: The infinite intelligence, the love of god, the love of the universe, it only...

On Loan From God

A profound teacher in my life lost his wife to cancer a few days ago. My friend, who is also a student of this man, went to sit Shiva with him (Shiva is the week-long mourning period in Judaism). My friend asked our teacher how he was feeling, and his response was so beautiful and so saturated with truth that I had to share it with all of you. He said, “I’m doing well.
