Last night (Sunday 22nd October) I had a very profound meditation, more like trance – I was carried away and ‘out of it’, surfacing far later than …
Holy Land

I’m but a broken clock, right twice a day
I’m but a broken clock, right twice a day. If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio:
Background – My programming, conditioning
I was trained to view life from a certain perspective, through a particular lens.
I questioned things, sure. But I was satisfied with the answers I was presented with. It took years for me to dig for deeper truths when life played out differently or didn’t quite match the expectations my programming set me up for.
I wondered where electricity came from. I traced it back from street light to power plant through the wires (after my mom explained that route to me). I was satisfied with that for many years, until I mused at lightning. Then I questioned the source of lightning. (Source-ery?)
Following that spiral thought. Why is sorcery considered evil? (You say that like it’s a bad thing.) Isn’t it merely tracing something back to its origin or source?
What causes someone’s heart to turn cold, dark, or evil?
The word evil is simply the word LIVE in reverse. So, evil is death? To “not live”? Hmmm. In the wee early hours I ponder this.
I also ponder how someone knew the easiest way for us to connect our hands to our feet, arranging our body to connect end to end, was to sit cross-legged. I play with my feet a lot since learning reflexology years ago. Putting my hands on my feet is akin to connecting heaven to earth. And I fixate on the fact that our feet contain the most bones of any body part–thus someone can inflict the most pain by beating another’s feet, and also disable them from running away. I know. It’s late and my thoughts grow dark. I must sleep.
A part of Source
If Jesus is God, are not we too? I’ve been told we are each a fractal of Omniscience. God is our source and we are each a ray of its sunshine. How do we judge one ray of light any different than another. Ah, its frequency, which we perceive as color.
Grateful
I believed what I was told and taught. Now, I question Everything. However, I am still grateful for Everything.
Everything Resolves to Gratitude. And at least I’ve shifted my thoughts from beating feet!
Humility
I walk softly yet carry a big stick–of Power. POW! Energy. Ahh!
All paths lead to God–ALLways
Most Christians teach that the Holy Spirit must lead someone to Jesus. Then why do missionary work? Why force people to convert?
Buddhism teaches me to release cherishing anything. I release needing to know.
I balance the yin and yang on my knee
I remember bouncing my babies on my knee. I cherished them. I would never hurt them. But I did try to control them. To train them up right. Hmmm
I’m thankful for all the aspects of myself I learned, I witnessed of myself while raising my two children all those years ago.
All fall short – Spirit leads
All fail. All fall short. But the Holy Ghost or Spirit leads us home. Have faith. Trust.
Is-ness – The snails path
Energy just IS. Omniscience (Omnism) and the Dao (Daoism) just IS. Source just IS.
Theosophy continues to teach us. Great philosophers offer their wisdom (wise dome?)–their collection of documented insights.
The Truth of my experiential searching and knowing keeps me walking the snails path of the spiral. I am getting somewhere. So, maybe my spirituality is not a circle–not a never-ending story. But I still think it’s a pioneer path. A long and winding road. Not a yellow brick road, but for sure, there are flying monkeys and witches. Hahahahaha!
I am a fractal of Omniscience and I believe each of us are—this indeed makes one grand design. Meditate on the yin and yang ☯️ not the 2D drawing but the 3, 4, or 5D version which breathes, pulses, undilates, and emanates Light! When the shadow grows larger the lighter portion shrinks but always this symbol seeks its own balance and like water. (Hint: that’s what the wavy line in the middle represents—water, movement, action!)
Omnism
I am an ever-evolving spiritual being. I consider myself an Omnist, always open to experience life in all of its fullness and myriad offerings. I’m introspective, quiet, and a deep thinker. I’m quite vocal when I become passionate about something, so when I feel compelled to speak, give me a mic and hear me roar!
I popped open, spiritually, in 2005 when I had a transcendental experience in the middle of the night many years ago. I heard a deep male voice say, We Are All Connected. I’ve spoken about this publicly. See the low quality video of that story on YouTube: https://youtu.be/_ttVo3rI_i8?si=JJMn5lDLa7tGv1-y
I continue to embrace the following scripture as a way to explain “We Are All One.”
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. Ephesians 4:1-6
And I continue to play and peer through my blue kaleidoscope and consider the oneness of the Creators Grand Design, including ALLah. Including Buddha. Including Jesus.
Yours in expanding, revolving consciousnes,

p.s. My 4th book is on Amazon and my daughter bought the first copy! I had ordered two initially but she bought the actual first one after I corrected a couple things and lowered the price. Here’s the link to check it out: Have Yourself a Wholly Vibrant Life: Reversing Asthma and Other Chronic Illness Naturally
To our better health, ease, joy, and sustainment in JOY!

Integrating the Spirals to ease negativity, pain, suffering, loss, grief, loneliness, aggravation, frustration, misery, and any other unwanted emotions
My online Zoom video course, Integrating the Spirals is more timely now than ever because I know people are suffering. (Let me know if you’re interested in working through the Integrating the Spirals course.)
As an empath I want to help ease suffering and raise our vibration to offer hope. I want to uplift others and expand our collective consciousness. I teach breath work and meditation so we appreciate the value of Detachment. We till our inner soil with our breath to calm the amygdala and institute peace. Meditation is an easy way to Connect us with spirit, higher selves, Omniscience God, and receive non-programmed personal guidance.
Be the best version of who you want to be–because if you’re reading my words your soul is probably beckoning you to align with it and live up to your highest ideals. Not perfect because who is perfect? Most stagnate or ‘get stuck’ while on their way to being whatever they think perfection is. Making progress is enough. Carrying your Karma lightly is enough. Be kind to yourself while living responsibly. Who you ARE affects us ALL. We Are All Connected.
Omniscience knows ALL. Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone.

Continuing thoughts on our Limitless Creator Source God Divine Infinite Intelligence etc
Thoughts on Limitless Creator Source God Divine Infinite Intelligence
I attended a Mind Body Spirit expo in Sarasota and met a Tibetan Monk who studied under Geshe Kelsang Gyatso (you may have heard of him, as he’s written many books).
I was drawn to the monks’ energy, presence, and humility. I attended his talk, which was well received. And I bought two of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s CDs, so I could listen and discover new and deeper spiritual understandings.
I bought, “Eight Steps to Happiness” and “How to Solve Our Human Problems” and I have finally, completed my study of each set. Then, for Christmas, I gave my son and daughter-in-law the “Eight Steps…” and my dad the “…Human Problems” CDs. For more information about the monk I met, and where he practices, visit the Kadampa Meditation Center here.
I watched the movie Grounded, and gave several copies of it away too! (Click on the word Grounded to watch it on YouTube). The importance of earthing and grounding really resonate with me, not just for health and vitality, but to honestly connect with our Earth too! Nature can explain our Limitless Creator Source so beautifully, even so a child can understand.
I went to a special meeting at the Dao temple. At the time, I felt disconcerted about the stealthy way I had been invited. I had not been given much information with which to make an educated decision about going. Had I not been in my head so much, questioning everything, I may have simply relaxed, appreciated, and enjoyed the service more.
I prefer to know a little bit about a religion / faith before attending, bowing, or worshiping.
I was told the Daoist ceremony was only a ceremonial blessing (receiving Dao), however I came away with a birth certificate!
As I feel our Limitless Creator Source is in all and through all–thus, can pervade any tradition or affiliation, I can always enjoy and stay open to receive all the good things of God and not judge them, versus people who find it difficult to attend other faiths because they are locked into one way.
Spiral thought: I invited a friend (who is an Energy Medicine doc) to attend the Dao ceremony with me at Shien Deh Temple and she had not known the temple was there (about 45 minutes to an hour drive from where she lived)! She was sooo excited to come to know of it, and shocked really, to learn of it through me! ❤️🦋🌀🙏☯️
What is really going on?
All any of us are really doing is ascribing human attributes onto a Creator we cannot (yet, if ever) fully understand.
How does a Buddhist monk, the natural practice of Grounding, and a Daoist ceremony tie together?
These are just a few of the new experiences I’ve had, which bolster my belief that God is vast and expansive. Much too vast for humans with limited intellect to comprehend.
I am all about Connecting to an Ever-Living Limitless God, who will use Buddha, Jesus Christ, or my dog (yes well sort of, whatever it takes) to reach us, to meet people “where they are” and bring them back to knowing their true essence, “who they really are.” I do not believe there is only ONE way. I have never believed that. I have never condemned another based on a religious belief.
Hedging my bets?
Some might say that I hedged my spiritual bets years ago by being “saved” or “born again,” because I was baptized twice (one of those times in the ocean–it was beautiful, and once in church), and now, blessed with a birth certificate from the Dao temple.
Connecting
I believe we all have the ability to know, and connect with our Source, and in our quiet moments, Creator can speak to us–and we can FEEL it. This is the reason I love meditation.
I don’t feel that any one person’s Connection to the Divine, or Infinite Intelligence is stronger than anyone else’s CAN be (with much mindfulness and meditation / prayer / acknowledging Spirit), though with practice, the person may connect quicker. But the invitation is the same for ALL. As we are ALL children of the Limitless Omni-Everything Creator.
Everything is Energy
Each of us pulsate Source Energy at different frequencies. And Everything in the universe vibrates–yes, all physical atoms are vortices of energy, constantly spinning/vibrating, each emanating a unique energy signature. (Read any physics books by Niels Bohr.)
Limiting religions
I have intimately struggled with so-called “religious beliefs” because of my RLDS upbringing, Native American ancestry (my mother and my maternal grandmother had healing gifts), and close Baptist friend I sang with (in different churches) when we were young.
- I believe our bodies are our temple and we do not need a church or temple building in which to come to know or worship God
- I do not believe in dogma, it can be a guide but can also be misused if taken too seriously or followed rigidly
- I do not believe in statues or icons (but open to understand they may be used as a reminder)
- I know books translated into many languages can have errors and that words do not always convey intentions or the intended thoughts
- I think killing people (especially in the name of any religion) is ludicrous, immoral, and irreverent
I have written about my beliefs along the way, but I don’t think I’ve ever written it out quite this cut and dry before.
I do believe God has a GREAT sense of humor and most of us (definitely me) take ourselves way too seriously! No one has the Mind of God.
I think Omni-potent God created us to show himself without ego. If God showed us himself He would be in EGO.
Think of it this way, I wrote a book and it has a picture of me on the back cover. In that photo, I am showing you my ego self, as the author. If instead, I show you only the front cover of the book (of what I created), I am not in ego, I am just celebrating my creation!
God celebrates His creation of each of us – everyday!
Standards
So, I tend to hold teachers, preachers, evangelists, and the like to a higher standard, because I hold myself in such a place of integrity (because of my beliefs of our Limitless Omniscient Source). However, this year, I’ve learned that because I hold myself to such a high standard/integrity, it very well might be a limiting belief, and causes me to feel bad when others let me down.
Why do I feel people should be perfect?
Why put anyone on a pedestal?
I’ve said many times, “Christians should be held to a higher standard.” And every time I’ve felt that way, it’s caused me to feel bad, anxious, irritated, frustrated, angry, etc.
I choose to let go of that limiting belief.
Letting go to feel better
Now, I replace thoughts about someone’s lack of “integrity,” with thoughts like, “everyone is doing the best they can” and “nobody’s perfect,” so I can radiate compassion, unconditional love, and bloom in the knowing that we are ALL “God’s children.”
Ah, that feels so much better! And my only job is to reach for these kinds of better feeling thoughts, in any moment of the day, when I begin to judge someone’s vibes, facial features, body language, words, tone, or actions.
Beautiful.

Why censor or limit oneself? God is. Just Be.
My previous post was about living a joyous life in balance. Ah, bliss. And it should be so easy, right? Eh, well not exactly.
People limit themselves everyday. We fuss, nag, find fault, argue, criticize, and blah, blah, blah… So, why do I censor or limit myself in conversations? Isn’t it obvious?
I limit my words, uh many times even my thoughts, because someone was critical of me in the past. Maybe a parent, teacher, coach, boss, or authority figure – that is unimportant. It doesn’t matter whom. The point is – we humans like to limit things. We like to label things. People will tell you, “don’t worry or care what people think”… but then mysteriously those same folks – usually within the same conversation – will say something that carries the essence of, “be careful, don’t say too much, don’t tell him or her this or that.”
Good intentions
I give you this fact. Many people have good intentions. They want to protect you somehow. Protect you from saying too much so you won’t get into trouble. Hmm. But isn’t that their problem?
Mixed frequencies
Censoring myself, limits me and puts me in a flux state, vibrationally speaking.
I get nervous. I get flustered. My face may even get red. I end up with a mindful of clutter!
Yet, all I can ever truly be – is myself. Like me or not. Care or not.
I make mistakes, I learn, I fall, I get up, I cry, I love, I give, I receive. I am vulnerable. I am not superwoman – and I don’t really think anyone else is superman or superwoman either.
Empower yourself
UPDATE: Want to feel empowered? Get your cape on!
If I, being of noble purpose, believe I have something to share, begin to open my mouth but then my mind jumps to thoughts like, “Oh, they don’t want to know, they don’t care” that’s enough to stop me dead in my tracks. Why? Because no one wants to be judged or condemned. We all want to be liked! If we didn’t want people to like us, we’d never go out, we’d never join with others in any social situation. We’d sit alone all day! Ha! But then a strange thing would happen. The ones we thought would judge us would be the very ones who would say, “come on, get out and be a joiner”! Do you get the irony in this?
You can’t get it wrong
So really, you can’t get it wrong. Just be. Be yourself. Without limitations.
Labels and beliefs
Even my feeble attempt to list all the names (why must humans LABEL everything?) that humans ascribe to the LIMITLESS Filling-All-Space Creator I honor causes me to scratch my head, analyze, and scrutinize.
How do I order this list? Ugh! My mind goes to a place of judgement… I know someone won’t like that I’m including names of: Mother Father, Allah, Buddha, or Zen. All this judgment and it feels so heavy. But God is love, and I almost can’t think of any other all consuming love (at least not in my human form) better than a mother or father (or grandparent) can give to a child – so for me, calling God as Mother Father feels so good, so comforting, so forgiving, and so full of grace. Ohh I am so saved. So loved. I am not perfect but I am so very, wholly, LOVED!
All the various beliefs we hold, many are so personal, so deeply entrenched within us, that putting the names into the same article, or list, will be judged, labeled, and so on! Go on, that’s fine. You’re not perfect either! But you are worthy. You are loved. 😉
Obviously human beings cannot agree, most cannot even discuss these Holy names for God – there is no consensus and certainly there are multitudes of faiths, religions, and many, many wars have been fought, with untold millions of lives lost due to the very notion / belief that one of these names, carry more importance, than the others. But names are only words. Words must be defined to carry any meaning to anyone. Period. If I AM (right now in the present moment) aware of, consciously tuned to:
The names of God

Source
Universal Energy
Great Spirit
Great Architect

The One Who Goes By Many Names
“There are many names for the source of knowledge—the Absolute, the Cosmic, God, the Divine Spirit, the Transcendent —yet the concept is one; it is the Universal Manifestation, the Spiritual Essence, that pervades all things. And, it is this entity, this Universal Oneness, that the mystic seeks to know.”
-Rosicrucian Manuscript
Why do we limit the Limitless, Ever-Living, Filling-ALL-Space, Creator God?
And then, why, would I EVER limit myself???
There are NO limitations!!!
There is good all around
Let us not lie to ourselves! There’s so much GOOD going on and I’m tuned in!
People are friendly. People smile. People are kind and do good things for each other.
I see beauty EVERYWHERE and everything is working together for our good! Everything occurs in perfect timing in accordance with the order of life, of God. We are all connectedin so many direct and subtle ways. How can anyone deny it? We live in a field of INFINITE possibilities. Get over your lack mentality.
Resonate, vibrate, tune yourself to the POWER and knowledge YOU are who you are meant to be. Quit resisting! Resisting your true beautiful, whole, powerful nature is the same as putting a clamp on a water hose. Just let God’s love and power flow through you always. 😉
I am a spiritual being having an earthly experience and so are YOU! Be real with yourself. I love to help others awaken. I’ve got so much to share!
Bloom where you’re planted. I am! Since I love teaching, sharing, and writing – here’s my expression. Each post is a bloom on the flower of my life.
God personified
Jesus Christ of Nazareth came to enlighten us. He came to show us that we’re energy. He showed us how to live in the full awareness of how to live in our wellness and wholeness. Be it now.
To be something means, you are “being.” You are a human being. Being means vibration, pulsing, activating, acting as if, and exercising your faith! Jesus did not look upon illness or dis-ease, He saw us in our whole (Holy) state of being. Go to the scriptures and read the miracles again. Jesus healed a man who had been born blind. It is written Jesus put mud on the man’s eyes. Then you know what? Jesus instructed the man to go to the river and wash! The blind man was healed by putting his faith into action. Yes, “your faith has made you whole.”
Be hopeful
If you need encouragement and upliftment today quietly say to yourself or out loud with boldness…
- With every breath, God
- With every heartbeat, God
- I am who and where God is
- God is with me
- I am never ever alone
- Alone is a lie
- Alone has been misrepresented
- Alone has been ill-defined
- I know God is with me
- I align myself with Source
- I Am Creative Energy
Then say with your most open heart: “Thank You” as a child says, thank you. God knows. For some beautiful worship check out:Rev. Michael Beckwith
My daily mission: to consistently and joyfully manage the contrast between things that frustrate me (like a pebble in my shoe), which cause me to ask for improvements in my spiritual yet earthbound experience, and reach for better feeling thoughts, keeping my body at ease, allowing myself to receive the divine blessings God has in store for me.
In other words: To be joyfully aware of LIMITLESS, Ever-Living, Filling-All-Space Creator in every present moment. To me, this is the sum total of living a blessed, blissful, joyous, and happy life – everyday no matter what the circumstances.
Always remember we walk by faith. Be conscious every present moment. We walk in the light and are never alone.
To those who question if God is Energy, I would ask them, “What is Spirit”?
What is the essence of God? Isn’t it enough to be thankful that we have mind enough to ponder that? To simply BE. Be in God’s Energy.
Blessed BE.
Ease, peace, calm, love, light, joy, bliss, namaste, and, and…
We Are All Connected. OM
Many blessings to you in ALL ways.
