The Lost Years of Jesus

  The Gospels record Jesus age twelve in the temple.  Then about age thirty at the river Jordan.  That leaves approximately seventeen years unaccounted for.  During those so-called lost years, the child “increased in wisdom and stature,” as Luke wrote.  But was it in the carpenter shop at Nazareth?  According to ancient Tibetan manuscripts, Jesus secretly withdrew from the home of Mary and Joseph at age thirteen. Young “Issa” joined a merchant caravan.  Destination: India and the Himalayas.  At Juggernaut, “the

The Freedom of Forgiveness

“By confessing your judgments to others, you release them even more powerfully than you can by yourself. You also help establish a climate in the community in which ego is acknowledged as a natural phenomenon for all people. It comes and it goes, sometimes with anger, sometimes with sadness. You help establish an atmosphere in which no one beats himself up because he is having an ego attack. So the ego is held more lightly, and let go more easily.

Defining the Tao

Defining the Tao One of the most important spiritual works of all time is the “Tao Te Ching”, written by Chinese Master Lao Tzu.  All the information about this ancient Master (551-479 B.C.E.) is highly suspect. Even the meaning of his name is uncertain (the most likely interpretation “the Old Master). The only tangible evidence there is that he even existed is the tiny book of wisdom sayings that he left behind when he vanished, figuratively or literally as the

Learning to trust life’s process is quit a feat.  However, when we let go of our resistance to change and finally release the things that are falling away and are no longer working in our life, the whole world opens up to us.  When we release the need to control the outcome of our life and we learn to trust fate rather than resist it, the Holy Spirit is allowed to move in our lives.  Our surrender to Source brings
