Spei Lumina - Lights Of Hope

Christmas may have come and gone almost a week ago, but liturgically at least, we are still in the Christmas Season until Epiphany on January 6th. As this is being recorded on New Year’s Eve, I thought I’d share a simple meditation of some beautiful Epiphany prayers to closer out our earthly remembrance of the year 2022 and to embark with surer footing on that path to Epiphany this year where we ask to be like the Magi, transformed, enkindled, renewed by God’s manifestation of the Light of the World within and through our own lives.

For those of you who observe Lent and Easter, I hope that yours was a blessed Lenten season and Easter celebration.  I hope that all listeners have had a blessed Winter and the budding leaves and flowers and green of Spring instills hope to the beauty of this year that lies ahead.   During Lent, I came across this quote from David Benner which really spoke to my soul:   “We are created from love, of love, for love.  Our existence makes no sense apart from Divine Love.” — David G. Banner   It is so easy in the hustle and bustle of life to forget this.  It is...

My thanksgiving prayer for you is that you too may transcend the moment at your gathered tables, transcend any tension, any worry, any resentment, any hurt and tap into your own heart energy and be aware of the memories being made, the love being shared, the love present, the affection felt. Love is eternal. It is in those moments of love, we leave our presence in this world. It is in those moments of love, we are still felt after we are gone and we likewise still feel those who have passed.

In the July, 1937 issue of The Inner Life there is an article entitled, “A Challenge to Metaphysicians” the author asks siblings in spiritual ministry to consider developing the Christ Consciousness by starting their meetings with his invocation and prayers. What follows is my adaptation of his invocations as an imaginal prayer exercise, helping us to invite that Light of the Christ consciousness within so that we in turn may broadcast that Light, that Love, that truth out to all in these trying time

I recently came across the Gnostic influenced Manichaean writings that really seemed to speak to my soul. Manichaeism would be condemned by the Latin Church as a heresy, the Manichaean writings provide a richness that speaks more true to the human condition as a soul embodied, incarnated in this physical body we live and experience this earthly life than most of the Christian spiritual writings ever shed on the soul. I hope you too find it just as enriching as I did.

In this age we live in with so much dissension and rhetoric dividing humanity across the globe, I thought it important to remind ourselves of the mandatum Christ left his followers, “To love one another as I have loved you.” The love that Christ was speaking about and instructed and lived out by example is not solely a feeling, or an emotion, rather, it is a dimension with which to live your life. The dimension of love connects you to the divine in a way that no other dimension can.

The holidays are fast approaching, as is the 2020 US Presidential election.  The rhetoric and polarity on both sides is ratcheting up in the final march to the election.  We are bombarded with so much mixed messages, false truths, half truths, fake truths and outright lies.  All in an effort to push our buttons to live out of fear and reaction.  To live from a place of bigotry and hate.  To live from a place of defensiveness.

It’s enough sometimes to wonder what exactly is the truth and where can the Divine be in all this chaos.

So much of our life is built around simply hearing the information media broadcasts to us only to react to it.  

To refresh my soul, I don’t seek to hear so much as to listen to that still quiet whisper of the divine calling to me and respond and follow in helping to reflect more of the healing, loving, and rejuvenating energy of the divine, of Source in my life through my words and actions and in so doing, reflect that energy of the Divine within the cosmos.

I started this podcast over 2 years ago with mission in mind.  I hope that you have found this podcast beneficial in helping you quiet down, pause, and open your imagination to the imaginal realm, the Divine realm, and be illuminated by Source to responding by following that illumination and adapting it in your lives through your thoughts, words and actions and likewise helping to reflect that Divine energy within and through the cosmos.

Tonight’s podcast episode is the 20th episode of Season 2 and our final episode for Season 2.  I thought that as we seek to be instruments reflecting the Divine, reflecting Source in the cosmos during these tumultuous times that imaginally praying the peace prayer of St. Francis would be a great imaginal prayer to wind down October with as we anticipate the outcome of the presidential election here in the United States.

Also stay tuned for the announcement of the special way we will be opening up Season 3 beginning with our first episode of Season 3 being published this Sunday October 25th, 2020
