Lightening the Load
Eventually we see that life is really a mystery, and initially that can be frightening, upsetting, overwhelming. But eventually it’s freeing — it’s the openness of spaciousness, not the holding and contraction of knowing.
The Deep Guidance Within
How can we become sensitive enough to perceive the deep guidance within? How can we become clear enough, and out of the way enough, that the message can come through?
The Intimacy of Being
This week Jon returns to discuss his ongoing recovery from surgery, and reminds us that “the more you open to the deeper presence that you are, the more you can just be here with whatever’s happening — with whatever needs your attention, your loving tenderness and care.”
Pathway to Self-Healing

The Meaning of Surrender
Eventually we really understand what it means to surrender. It doesn’t mean giving up; it means letting go of controlling. The bird doesn’t control the wind, but it can fly. It’s one with the wind. And we’re one with awareness.
The Radiance of Aliveness
When all drops away, there’s just this; and you realize oneness. It is revealed, instantly, to be how it is. It literally is light emanating. It’s kind of cool, really, to be the light. To let radiance emanate infinitely. To be the radiance of aliveness.
