Toward a World that Works for Everyone
Time for a change, a walk in the park, so to speak. There are many classic paths to enlightenment. I’d like to divide them into two general types: (1) Those that involve going inward and (2) those that involve going outward. Those that involve going inward include meditation proper, the awareness path (my chosen path), […]
I lasted an hour, focused on the integration of the phases of my life. (1) But I also went in and out of it over the course of the day. I’ve written a number of articles on the longing for liberation. (2) It’s a built-in, subtidal thirst which only reunion with God will extinguish or […]
(Concluded from Part 2.) The Longing for Liberation as the Desire to Love and Be Loved In more recent years, the Company of Heaven (CoH) appears to have shifted the emphasis away from speaking about a longing for God or even a longing for liberation, to speaking about a longing for love.

When we feel a sudden rise of yearning, we may be fooled by it and attempt to fill it with yachts, mansions, wine, wo/men and song.

Granted that I’m biased, this show will probably remain for me my favorite of all the programs in An Hour with an Angel. First of all because Sanat Kumara links together and explains four of the most basic concepts in life in one talk: the purpose of life, the Divine Plan, the universal law, and […]
It’s just a question of time before we begin to feel a stronger yearning for the Divine. That yearning, which ancient sages called “the longing for liberation,” is, in my estimation, a design feature of life. It’s one of those built-in elements which everyone of us has within us, probably deeper than DNA. In the […]
