Welcome to OneLife Ministries, an online ministry of Brian Kenneth Wilcox Ministries and Love Light Fellowship. This site is here to lead you into a heart experience of Divine Presence, Who is Love. We recognize “that of the Sacred in each one” and celebrate the diversity of expressions of our Oneness in Grace. We are for peace and nonviolence, and equal rights and justice for all. I hope persons of varied wisdom paths will find inspiration here. Welcome!
You are invited to join Brian at Love Light Fellowship on Facebook. For other Facebook sites by Brian, contact Brian by message at Brian Kenneth Wilcox, on Facebook.
We Share One Life, We Are One Life
Faith Affirmation of Love Light Fellowship
An Interspiritual-Interfaith-Integral Life Community
To all who enter this sacred space, we wish the receiving of the Light of Divine Presence, to bless you, and those near you, and strengthen for all good service, in Faith, Hope, and Love.
Entering the Inner Sanctuary
Enter this sanctuary time by settling down, becoming quiet, and breathing deeply a few breaths. Remind yourself you are in the Presence of Love. This place you are entering, within, is the inner Temple. Here, you are One with Spirit and all persons, and Nature. You may use a mantra, or prayer phrase, follow the breathing in-and-out, or witness the arising and falling of all around you as the manifestation of universal-Grace. Enjoy these moments of Quiet and come out when you are ready. The following video is provided, for those who would like meditative music to accompany your Quiet contemplation:
*Kokin Gumi. Zen Garden.

*Snatam Kaur. The Sun Shines on Everyone.
Spiritual Teaching
Fa-yen, a Zen Buddhist teacher, overheard four monks arguing about subjectivity and objectivity. He joined in, saying: "There is a big stone. Do you consider it to be inside or outside your mind?"
One of the monks replied, "From the Buddhist viewpoint, everything is a projection of mind; so, I would say that the stone is inside my mind."
"Your head must feel very heavy," observed Fa-yen, "if you are carrying around a stone like that in your mind."
Religious and spiritual ideas can often become impractical. One challenge is to admit we know very little, and that is enough to live a life of blessing in this World, a life of compassion and graciousness toward all life forms.
Responding
Are there any ideas you once affirmed or argued about, and now find not deserving of such attention? How much do you really need to know to live a life of Grace in this world?
