Festive Season



In this period of Christmas, holidays or winter solstice; whatever makes us feel comfortable, we often sit quietly and think about a certain archetypal person, be it the Christ, Buddha, B'ab, Krishna...we think of a pure hearted person or Plato's philosopher king, and wish secretly that such a person would come and save us.

But in truth, we are aspiring to the messiah within ourselves, the Inner Self that is still connected to divinity and light. May this year be the year that you find your Inner Messiah, and walk the path of your true destiny.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays & Good Solstice...

This Cave Within...

I have come to realize that – no matter how much we try and fool ourselves – some part of us will always feel lonely; that part, unfathomable by others we know as our most inner sense of feeling. The pond within that ripples when the afternoon light falls on the trees, painting their windswept swaying leaves in gold and amber. The cave within that houses the childhood hopes and fears, ignited to flame as ambient sounds drift into our minds from afar...

But despair not, for that sacred place is yours alone...
