The presentations at this site cover a long time period. Each one represents part of an on-going Pilgrimage, and the writer's ideas, practices, and experience have changed over time. This change is the quality of any living Journey. Please read with this in mind, allowing the inner Teacher to speak to you as you need at this particular time in your own living Journey. Thanks!

And the Word became flesh and lived among us. And we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only born of the Father, full of grace and truth.

*Gospel of John 1.14

Prayerfulness is Incarnation
Embodying Grace, here, now, everywhere, always

Christ-within is
Godness manifesting silently through the body

John's Gospel reads of the eternal Word
that this Word lived among us

To be among, with
is your most important Gift to others

In your silence, Silence speaks
in your not-doing, Grace acts

Relax the urgency to speak or act
this is your invitation to Grace to speak and act

Let stillness and quietness be Prayer
Love for all, before thought and feeling

Let your body be the Opening
for Grace silently to bless others

Do not try to understand this mystery of Presence
simply be present, knowing Love is always, already with Us

The Word giving Itself anew
occurs each time our heart opens to another in Love
