Soul Lights

Dear Friends, Below is the declaration a group of spiritual teachers (myself included) propose for the Peoples of Planet Earth at this tumultuous time….. We call upon all people of conscience, across every culture, faith and nation, to unite for the common good so that we may ensure a sustainable, flourishing future for all. If

Dear Friends, I have written a regular self-realisation column for over 33 years now; and have been publicly “connected” to a non-human “guide” (called Mordechai) for well over 40 years. In that time I have constantly harped-on about us “being Love”. Indeed, my favourite saying (which I have on my t-shirts) is : Love is

We all know that solitude and introspection is a highly sought after state of being. We undertake silent retreats, ‘go within’ to access deep levels of emotional peace and use alone-time to mentally resolve many troubling aspects of our busy and often confusing lives….. One-ness is always easier when we are alone and quiet and

A Christmas Tale….. Is the child in you still alive? Do you have (or know) children or grandchildren for whom the magic of Christmas still shines brightly? Below is the story I wrote and Trudi illustrated for every Aussie adult and child at Christmas. It’s pure Australiana. It’s in big print so you can read

I am incredibly grateful for Spirit guiding and supporting me when I was just a child and, in many ways, unaware, feeling unwanted and alone. I am equally grateful for Spirit then loudly advising me it intended to partner with me in the creative experience I call ‘my life’. Since then it has made itself

Dear Friends, Chuck Feeney was the founder of the Duty Free Shoppers company in the United States. During his lifetime he gave away all the excess money he made – over US$8 billion. That’s around $12.5billion in Australian dollars. (He gave over half a billion dollars to Australian medical researchers). His last years were spent

Dear Friends, I’ve been overwhelmed with replies to my last article regarding robots. Some replies were very poignant including this from Suzanne…. “I was thinking today, what will happen to our minds? Will it increase in speed as well? Is all evolution good evolution? Generations being born that will only know the faster pace? I

Dear Friends, Above is a photo of an actual existing, operational Chinese robot. Hangzhou-based ‘AheadForm’ creates “sophisticated humanoid robot heads that can express emotions, perceive their environment, and interact seamlessly with humans.” This one blinks, speaks, answers complicated questions moves her head from side to side, smiles, smirks and can use her eyes to scan

Dear Friends, Many of you are aware that Trudi and I are generally ‘vegetarians’ People often ask us ‘why?’….so here’s our answer…… (We don’t try to convince others to join us so you can read this without throwing out the Sunday family roast….) Life eats life. It always has; and always will. Snakes eat mammals

This Week………. Two More Challenging Thoughts….. Dear Friends, This week I am sharing two more challenging thoughts that may hopefully be helpful…… The first is that “fear holds me hostage”…… Might I suggest it’s more correct to say that “I’m holding fear hostage”. We are the ones that stop fear from leaving. Our memory keeps

This Week………. Two Challenging Thoughts….. Dear Friend, This week I am sharing two challenging thoughts that may well upset some people but are probably best considered…… The first is that birthday presents are a missed opportunity. Where and when did the custom arise? Obviously, the Bible states that “Wise men from the East brought gifts

A correspondent last week wrote: “My pain issues are chronic, and I am struggling with the chaos and madness of this World….” I TOTALLY relate to even everyday healthy people struggling to come to terms with society’s madness and chaos. It’s endemic. War, social dislocation, rape and murder seem to be treated as normal. Theft,

Dear Friends, Last week I looked at the popular saying: “Time Heals All Wounds”. I thought I’d throw in two others for you to throw out….. The first: “Curiosity killed the cat”…… and the second:  “Ignorance is bliss.” They’re both interconnected and stupidly suggest we remain “blissfully” unaware… Unaware of anything that isn’t slap bang

Dear Friends, A WELL KNOWN saying says “Time Heals All Wounds”. I hold a different view on this matter which may distress some people: Time Heals NOTHING. Thinking that it “might”, “should”  or “could” only exacerbates the trauma and distress that this erroneous saying purports to assuage. Yes, we might push the hurt, fear or

This Week………. We are ALL gifted beyond measure…… Dear Friends, I’m not being flippant and elitist when I write the above statement. I’m being truly authentic. I found myself today singing “How Great Thou Art”…..and I was reminded that everyone of us comes into the world (and retains throughout their life) three amazing gifts. These

  The above photo shows an exquisite  gold pendant of two facing wasps which was discovered in an ancient Minoan cemetery in Crete. It is at least 3,800 years old. That’s roughly twice the age of ‘civilisation’ since Jesus. The goldsmith combined several techniques to create the piece — filigree, granulation, repoussé and incised decoration.

We may not want to but we all have to face death: both of ourselves and of our loved ones. There’s simply no way to avoid it. This week, my dear friend and colleague Maureen Cooke, Minister of The Church of Enlightenment in Port Macquarie, quietly transitioned. She was 95 and had given her life

Dear Friends, A number of you have commented on how lucky we are to live in a community that is relatively safe. A couple mentioned they felt it was a conscious choice they made in spirit following their previous life….. As I hold a different view I felt I should “come clean” (although I realise

Dear Friend, This week I am sharing a further message from Lynne McTaggart regarding the concept of “healing by intention”. This relates to her own experience with her own family….and I add a short experience of my own…. “………my husband Bryan’s 79-year-old mother, Edie, was diagnosed with end-stage breast cancer a few years ago. Her

Dear Friend, This week I am sharing an email from Lynne McTaggart regarding the concept of “healing by intention”. She speaks so eloquently on the topic and her words are so helpful and valuable to those seeking healing of any kind for themselves, their friends, relatives or clients.
