The Book Of Light: The Heart Opening

Last updated on: October 23, 2012 at 12:49 pm   By David Matthew Brown

In awareness of your body now, allow your attention to rest on the breath. As the attention rests on the breath, you may notice that the breath becomes conscious to you and as this happens the breath deepens. You are meant to BE PRESENT. Read more

Who Would I Be? And Faith

Last updated on: October 22, 2012 at 11:37 am   By David Matthew Brown

The thief is the thought. The thief wanting to take me into the future, the past, anywhere but living and breathing here. The thief worked very hard, and was convincing with its smooth talking, stories, and yet as I was aware of the thief, another thought emerged from the valley of the my soul, "Who would I be without thought?" Read more

Tomorrow is a thought Concept?

Last updated on: October 19, 2012 at 11:09 am   By David Matthew Brown

We spend our time here on planet earth, doing, looking, searching, worried, anxious, and yet on the other hand we are told that life is existing now in perfect aliveness.  As I watched the TV last night, every commercial was geared toward a future problem, suffering from this or that, or you need a new car, insurance, house, it is all an image of a life tomorrow.  In our individual lives we can’t wait to rush through our meals, showers,... Read more

Osho- The Natural Is Divine

Last updated on: October 2, 2017 at 6:44 am   By David Matthew Brown

Osho – Whenever you listen to the voice of the ego, sooner or later there will be trouble. You will fall into the trap of misery. This you have to watch: ego always leads into misery, always, unconditionally; always, categorically, absolutely. And whenever you listen to nature, it leads you to a well-being, a contentment, a silence, a bliss. So this should be the criterion. You will have to make many errors; there is no other way. You have to watch your own choice, from where the voice is coming, and then you have to see what happens — because the fruit is the criterion. Read more

Love your neighbor?

Last updated on: October 15, 2012 at 10:51 pm   By David Matthew Brown

We walk in a world that is filled with compulsion, a world in which unconscious people are unconscious of being unconscious, where an eye for an eye feels good, revenge is glorified, war amplified, hurts, pains, and yet we are told in spite of anothers actions to send love, pray for them. Read more

“get in here, everyone get in here..look into each other eyes..now! look into each others eyes, I want one more day with you, it’s the most fun, the best team I have ever been on, and no matter what happens we must not give in, we owe it to each other, play for each other, I need one more day with you guys, I need to see what Theriot will wear tomorrow, I want to play defense behind Vogelsong because he’s never been to the playoffs..play for each other not yourself, win each moment, win each inning, it’s all we have left”. Read more

Are you hungry?

Last updated on: October 10, 2012 at 11:42 am   By David Matthew Brown

Someone sent me an email the other day asking the question, "David, what is God?". I remember 5 years ago I had the wonderful Dr. David Hawkins on my radio show, who recently passed away, and I was curious and asked him the same question, and he didn't answer it, he just laughed. I will not just laugh the question off, because this is a blog and the question is asking for an answer. But I am smiling, just so you know. Read more

Osho “Being Love” Really beautiful

Last updated on: October 9, 2012 at 11:45 am   By David Matthew Brown

"...Man becomes mature the moment he starts loving rather than needing. He starts overflowing, sharing; he starts giving. The emphasis is totally different. With the first, the emphasis is on how to get more. With the second, the emphasis is on how to give, how to give more, and how to give unconditionally. This is growth, maturity, coming to you. Read more

Do you have a Timothy in your life?

Last updated on: October 8, 2012 at 12:01 pm   By David Matthew Brown

On this path of discovery, learning, growing, and  forgiveness, all which allows us the opportunity to live in the presence, with less stress, we have the chance to meet many people. Some of those people stay, some go, some last for just a second, or minute. Some we talk too on our way to work, and others show up in our lives for a month or two.  My sense is that each of them is a reminder for us on... Read more
