Tying your happiness to a drunk donkey

The holy meeting in the heart

No credentials needed for Atma Darshan

Eat the sweet, eat God

Love gives freedom, attachment takes freedom

Why must I prove my love to God?

Don't leave this world without meeting God

Spirituality Without Spirit Is a Restaurant Without Food

God is not a concept

Running to Help God Spin the Earth Faster

A Love Beyond Feeling

No Time to Resent

The One Who Never Changed

Just try one day

Get into that embrace right now

Allow your heart to just be

Which tree are you watering

A Swiss watch used to hammer a nail

When the oppressor wears a spiritual costume

God is available on call

Stop sorting people into worthy and unworthy

Carried like a baby in his lap

God's special corner for those who made mistakes

How to find the God who is everywhere

Spirituality rarely talks about spirit — mostly about experiences

Don't hedge your bets — full-hearted surrender or self-help?

Antakarana is a dual-purpose design — Maya or God

Felt love comes and goes — the deeper love is known in the heart

God's name is like a fire that burns whatever your intention was

There is no quick fix for fear; constant remembrance grows trust
One teaching, two lengths. Take what your day allows.
