Spiritual Action

Do you ever go through periods of time in your life when you feel uneasy, anxious, impatient, resentful, etc. without being able to put your finger on why?
I find that if I really think about what’s going on (there has to be a reason for goodness sake!) the answer is almost always the same. I [...]

Spiritual Happiness

I think about happiness a lot so it’s interesting to put down some words this month on the subject.
There are degrees of happiness ranging from contentment to happiness to joy to bliss. Usually spiritual happiness is referred to as bliss and it is very difficult to describe. It is rarely a constant state for most [...]

Spiritual Wonder

There is so much ‘wonder’ in the Universe around us and I wonder if we take enough time out to appreciate it!?
Do we notice:
-  the sun rising, carving its arc across the sky and setting with the same unhurried pace every day no matter what mayhem is being created by the humans beneath it
- the fragrance [...]

Spiritual Purpose

I don’t suppose I’ve ever thought specifically about the ‘purpose’ behind my spiritual pursuits until this month! I felt the need to become close to God in 1989 and so have continued to try and do that on a daily basis ever since.
Now that I think about it, the purpose behind this journey comes down [...]

Spiritual Inspiration

I’m sure I’m not alone in having been inspired by various people throughout my life. Dead or alive, alone or en masse, it is usually something they have said or done. For me, spiritual accomplishments are most inspirational.
I recall many years ago hearing Wayne Dyer speak here in Sydney. I had already read a number [...]

Spiritual Journey

Journey – another word close to my heart. I thought I would share with you this month some of my own spiritual journey as a reflection.
I’ll start with one of my favourite memes, Buddhism’s “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear”. In the early 80s my mum discovered the ‘bible’, Frederick Bailes’ Hidden Power [...]

Spiritual Cherishing

When I hear the word ‘cherish’ I get a strong feeling that is hard to describe. To me this word is the epitome of a spiritual relationship, particularly with a romantic partner.
From the Oxford dictionary, ‘cherish’ means to treasure, to care for, or to protect which are all valuable and valid descriptions as a starting [...]

Spiritual Possibility

In order to discuss spiritual possibilities it is first necessary to discuss ‘faith’. To me, spiritual faith in your Higher Power requires no proof. Most people say, “I’ll believe it when I see it”.
If you have true faith in Source you will say, “I’ll see it when I believe it”.
This level of faith takes an [...]

Add a little bit of magic to your Christmas

With Christmas coming up faster than I suspect any of us are prepared for, it is fitting to reflect on ceremony.
My personal thoughts and feelings around this time of year usually revolve around exhaustion and please let’s get to the end of the year for a well-earned break! At the same time, I hate wasting [...]

Spiritual Renewal

This month’s topic is an interesting one. On reflection, I don’t feel qualified to talk about planning since I rarely do it and never in relation to spiritual matters! I’d much rather go along with the flow of the Universe. Renewal however, I can certainly speak to.
Considering oneself ‘spiritual’ is hardly the end of the [...]
