Discover a new path
through this magical, unknown day.

Let your story
dissolve in the light
and let your meditation
grow bright.

The encounters of this moment
fill the world.

The ego, drowning in bliss,
laughs with its last gasp.

Right action heals
in ways that even “success” cannot match.

Why walk the same pathways
as everyone else
when so much of this magical existence
is uncharted and unknown?

When problems fill the day,
then those problems are the day’s worship.

Find the holy heart
of the moment.

Each day
magically unfolds possibility
into reality.

Remember gratitude.

The pathway is open,
and that pathway is the heart.

The heart, to be whole,
must break a thousand times
and be ready to break again.

The pathway in life
runs along the seam
between the heart and the world.

Gather your history up,
unedited, without fear,
and watch it disappear.

Faith isn’t about knowing,
it’s about being
— then you know.

If I turn a blind eye to the suffering of another
…I become a little more blind.

Encounter every instant
entirely as it is,
in pure wonder.
