WISDOM

WISDOM  is right thinking and right action in harmony with Reality. The wisdom teachers of long ago and of recent and present time,  all tell us about the right way to live. Wise people are detached from their possessions; they are concerned with the well being of others and of our home planet Earth; they are compassionate toward oneself and others; they seek justice and peace; they listen to their Inner Voice.

Think for a moment how our society would be different if we were to listen to the voice of Wisdom...
Money and power would no longer be considered gods; war and abuse would cease; wealth would be distributed; earth would thrive and our food would be more natural and healthy; compassion would be evident...The world would be a happier place...
So, why not try WISDOM.

DESERT BEAUTY

A CACTUS IN BLOOM SPEAKS OF PRAISE A WHOLE DESERT SPEAKS OF STILLNESS The desert is like a monastery where one meets Presence. Sometimes life's events feel desert-like; yet we are not alone, in the midst of our solitude, we find Presence, Stillness... The desert is a place of transformation and freedom. It can mean a place to die... The desert is a mystical place where creation and God are ONE. God is an artist...."How Great Thou Art"...(hymn) "The beauty of the world is Christ's smile for us coming through matter."  Simone Weil Desert beauty invites stillness; it connects us with our true Self, our Divine Self. And that is beauty!! ( photos on this post were sent by a friend from Tucson, Az ) Search NATURE BEAUTY or INDEX http:// connectwithlucyusingphotos. blogspot.com

DEATH

DEATH         Most people are afraid of even the word.   Yet, death means new life, free life , free of pain, worries, anxieties... new birth. The Buddhists recommend visiting morgues so as to realize the brevity of life here on earth and the importance of living well.  Christians and, I think that all spiritual people, urge us to reflect on that same truth. EVEN DEATH IS NOT TO BE FEARED BY ONE WHO HAS LIVED WISELY.   Buddha DO NOT FEAR FOR I AM WITH YOU , DO NOT BE DISMAYED FOR I AM YOUR GOD.  I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU.    Is 41:10 WHETHER WE LIVE OR DIE, WE ARE THE LORD'S.     Rom 14:8 DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY.    1 Cor 15:54 THE GRAVE IS ONLY A CURTAIN FOR THE PARADISE BEHIND.   Rumi LIFE AND DEATH ARE ONE, EVEN AS THE RIVER AND THE SEA ARE ONE.  K Gibran DEATH IS THE TRANSITION TO UNITY WITH ULTIMATE REALITY.  Thomas Keating THE OPPOSITE OF DEATH IS BIRTH....
