Recently, my computer failed to start up like normal when I did a restart. The wallpaper image that usually pops up early in the process wasn’t there. In its place was a bright yellow screen. After a good half hour, which didn’t feel all that good, the computer was back in operation.

I began my contemplation by singing “HU,” the most sacred and ancient name of God, aloud for a few minutes and then silently sang it within. All the while, I pictured myself as Soul in the large ballroom-like space in the Astral Plane (1st heaven) where I had been before.

This song shares the experience of a transition from a vivid dream to a transcendent spiritual journey, where language dissolves and pure being takes over. “Where the Silence Sings” traces one soul’s surrender to the inner pull of divine love, following it past the last border of thought into an expanse of sound-and-light in the realms beyond the mind.

The image of an old friend came to mind while exploring some of the manicured grounds of the temple at Param Akshar [on the Soul Plane]. At least that was my first impression of him. But perhaps everyone here is an old friend. I’ll call this Soul, Maurey, for ease of reference.

For over 25 years, I’ve written and shared a Christmas season poem with family and friends.
Each year Spirit leads. I begin by asking the Universe what that year’s theme will be. The wording of my question changes but the intent remains: “What theme does Spirit want me to explore?” And, “how can what I share about it so my words help the reader better realize their link to life’s gifts?”

One of my favorite spiritual exercises is called “The Open Heart.”1 It involves loving or caring for someone or something more than we do ourselves. I practice this daily and have experienced a variety of profound results.
I love cooking and baking for family, friends, and neighbors. On one particularly crisp winter morning, I was given an opportunity to express my love to a stranger. As I was preparing to leave home to facilitate a Satsang class, I was guided to do something I would not normally do. In addition to the homemade chocolate chips cookies that I brought every month, I included a bunch of bananas and a $20 bill.

To experience the presence of Love in your life, I offer these thoughts:

One morning, I was guided to experiment with a spiritual exercise called “Show Me Love.”1 It is simply to ask God to show you truth, wisdom, understanding, or love. For a whole week, I had been struggling with a minor conflict with someone and contemplating on finding the best way to resolve the issue with greater spiritual awareness and grace.
I sang HU for a few minutes and asked the Inner Teacher inwardly to show me love. Then, I heard the Inner Teacher’s voice. “Go to the park, now.”

“Your task is not to seek love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
—Rumi
These barriers to which Rumi refers are numerous. Going through life unaware of these barriers is like driving an expensive sports car along a steep mountain road wearing blindfolds, not just one, but many.
