May 5, 2013 by admin 6 Comments

"The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world." Rabindranath Tagore Last week, I listened to the Food Revolution Summit, interviews with people on the forefront of the green movement, who are dedicated to healing from the inside out. The Food Revolution Summit is affecting a renaissance of change throughout the planet. We cannot affect meaningful change without each other. Last night, we had a Cinco de Mayo party, and as usual, discussed … [Read more...]

Your Daily Prayer For Healing-Be Kind To Your Feet

May 2, 2013 by admin Leave a Comment

Dear Goddess, I have a simple Prayer Prescription, today: wear a good pair of walking shoes and put them on the moment you get out of bed in the morning. The idea is to balance rest with activity, that is, moving the body whenever spirit inspires you to do so. Wearing good shoes is as important as giving up GMOs, drinking pure water, getting enough sleep and eating a plant strong diet. When you put on a good pair of shoes, you are ready to bounce out the door with your dog, or go … [Read more...]

What a Prayer Prescription is Not: 11 Things

March 27, 2013 by admin Leave a Comment

1) It is not a cure (but it is a healing) 2) It is not a religion (but it is spiritual) 3) It is not loud (and it arises from the quiet mind) 4) It is not punitive (but it is forgiving) 5) It is not speedy (and it does slow down "time" to no time) 6) It may not work immediately (but may take several hours or days to see the full impact-- sometimes several months or years) 7) It is not Heaven, Hell, Nirvana or the great unfathomable Void. (But it is a glimmering path that leads … [Read more...]

Dear Goddess, I have taken up dancing as a major form of exercise. I dance to music like the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and a general assortment of rock 'n roll from the 1960s. Dancing has a strange way of connecting me to spirit. Back in the day, I danced at every available opportunity. Not only does dancing connect me to the spirit world, it also connects me to the self that loved to dance years and years ago. My dog Pearlie finds my dancing to be curious. Suddenly … [Read more...]

Dear Goddess, Today, single-payer activists from all over the state of Pennsylvania are gathering here in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in order to get a plan of action to implement single-payer here in the Commonwealth.

In fact, I am giving a talk today about how Twitter can be used successfully to achieve goals which until very recently demanded large organizations and considerable resource to accomplish the same goals.

Dear Goddess, Over the last decade, many of the pillar institutions of American society have totally failed. These failures are ethical breaches in most cases, and I site the five ethical principles of Bruce Weinstein, 1) do no harm 2) make things better 3) respect others 4) be fair 5) be loving The latest financial crisis is a result of corruption and incompetence. The Supreme Court used to hold a great deal of respect in the minds of people, but when they handed the presidency … [Read more...]

Dear Goddess, Meditation and prayer, the cornerstone of a good spiritual recovery program, takes a person right out of her head and into her heart. I know that's where I want to be. All of life, after all, is spirit. The more I connect with the power that surrounds me and is within me, I know I can approach all areas of apparent conflict with a peaceful heart, as long as I allow spirit to lead where I need to be today. If this is the path of wisdom, sobeit. Everyone is called, but few … [Read more...]

Dear Goddess, I recently started doing a body scan, as part of my mindfulness meditation practice. Here are instructions for doing the Body Scan: Lie on your back with your legs uncrossed, your arms at your sides, palms up or down, and your eyes open or closed, as you wish. Focus on your breathing, how the air moves in and out of your body. After several deep breaths, as you begin to feel comfortable and relaxed, direct your attention to the toes of your left foot. Tune into any sensations in … [Read more...]

Dear Goddess, Today's heat allows us to slow down and hang out with Pearl in the air conditioning. She knows the word and loves nothing more than to stretch out in front of the cold air. Pearlie misses me when I am away orienting at Paoli Hospital. In fact, my schedule interferes with her love of sleeping late in the mornings. All of this change requires great stamina from each of us. Stamina. Fearless Stamina. That is my Prayer Prescription today. Stay cool and drink plenty of water. You … [Read more...]

Near Death Experiences And Spontaneous Remissions

July 14, 2012 by admin 5 Comments

After reading Anita Moorjani's book, Dying To Be Me, which describes a remarkable spontaneous cancer remission and Near Death Experience (NDE), I remembered this blog post I posted at least three years ago, about a similar NDE to Anita's. I just got finished writing to Anita, asking her to be on my radio show, after I finish orientation at Paoli Hospital. I hope she says "YES!!" -=-=-=-=-=-= Mellen-Thomas Benedict is an artist who survived a death experience in 1982. He was dead for … [Read more...]
