Descent into Darkness

Reading Time: 6 minutes

Guest Post by RJ McBride

It was 1:00 pm when I left camp accompanied by light winds and a
temperature of 75 degrees under crystal clear skies. If all goes to
plan, I’ll be sitting on the summit of Colorado’s 13,500 foot Mt.
Shimby in time to watch the sun disappear beneath the horizon, back in
camp by 3 or 4 am. 

So Much Love to Give

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Guest Post by Dennis Ernst

The game hadn’t gone well, and there was much frustration, some strong emotions, and tempers had flared. Even though we had played together for years, the air was fraught with tension. 

A Loving Heart (Song)

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Guest Post by Riley Carson

This song serves as a poignant reminder of love’s transformative power. The inner heart, filled with love, acts as a bridge between our earthly selves and the divine essence within. The lyrics came to me with remarkable ease; once the title emerged, the words seemed to pour forth of their own accord, requiring little conscious effort on my part.

Bamboo & the Sound of Love

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Guest Post by Alea Kent

I am a Rumi fan, but have only read his shorter works, having never tackled one of his best known poems, “The Reed.” So I decided to write a poem as if I did know what The Reed was about and this is the result. 

But what is interesting is that “Bamboo” was written years before our home burned in an urban wildfire. It is as if I was being given strength to understand what that experience was all about before it happened and know that I, too, would become the flute. 

Counting Blessings

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Guest Post by Jim Jackson

 “ Don’t live the same year 88 times and call it a life.”  —Robin Sharma

      “We accept the love we think we deserve.”  —Harold Klemp

Blessing: A divine favor, or something made holy (Webster’s 2nd Dictionary).

2019 was the ECK “Year of Blessings.” The year before, 2018, was the “Year of Giving.” One can recognize the continuity: in order to receive love, one must first give love.

The Day I Forgot to Breathe In God’s Love

Reading Time: 6 minutes

Guest Post by Linda Higgins

In the past, I didn’t always keep my attention on breathing in God’s Love and consciously living each moment in the Light and Sound of God. This story is about an intense waking dream experience that was given to me for my spiritual growth.

Ten years ago, my husband, Bill, and I went scuba diving off the shore of the island of Curaçao. During one of the dives, I got in trouble because I forgot to sing HU (an ancient name for God) and keep my attention focused on Divine Spirit and on God’s Love. I totally lost control of my mind!

“Telling-forth Dreams” and Ian’s New Life

Reading Time: 5 minutes

Guest Post by Bob Switzer

When I chatted recently with Ian, the anniversary of a life-changing event had just passed. The course of his life shifted dramatically on the morning of September 11, 2014.

On the Summit of a Dream

Reading Time: 5 minutes

Guest Post by RJ McBride

When one has walked the spiritual path for as long as I and many others have, one learns that wherever you’ve been and where you stand now, all places are sacred ground. You accept your awaiting next step to be in your overall best interest, even if at times that “next step” involves the possibility of personal risk or injury. Such was the time I set out to summit Oregon’s 11,228 foot Mt. Hood.

Memorable Moments of Divine Protection

Reading Time: 5 minutes

Guest Post by Jim Jackson

Looking back over the years, I am grateful to have learned how divine guidance has shaped my life and, at key moments, saved me from unimaginable harm, even death.

Blue Himalayan

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Guest Post by Janice George

When I asked to learn more about unconditional love, my Spiritual Teacher sent a special messenger. As it turned out, he also taught me about communication and much, much more.
