Path - Way

A mere few words can at times create a severe impact, and even be life altering. Many truths are contained in small expressions - come see for yourself!

As a Matter of Course

THE aim of this work is to assist towards the removal of nervous irritants, which are not only the cause of much physical disease, but materially interfere with the best possibilities of usefulness and pleasure in everyday life.

Freedom of Life

INTERIOR freedom rests upon the principle of non-resistance to all the things which seem evil or painful to our natural love of self. But non-resistance alone can accomplish nothing good unless, behind it, there is a strong love for righteousness and truth. By refusing to resist the ill will of others, or the stress of circumstances, for the sake of greater usefulness and a clearer point of view, we deepen our conviction of righteousness as the fundamental law of fife, and broaden our horizon so as to appreciate varying and opposite points of view. The only non-resistance that brings this power is the kind which yields mere personal and selfish considerations for the sake of principles.

How to Live Quietly

SO universal is the habit of blaming circumstances or other people for the troubles of our own lives that I know a strong assertion of the fact that the source of all trouble lies entirely within ourselves will meet with contradiction and resentment from many readers. It takes courage to look to one's self entirely for pain which seems to be caused by others, but if once we do it, and are thoroughly clean-cut about it in every thought and word and action, the release from bondage seems almost miraculous.

POETRY

Poems frequently rely for their effect on imagery, word association, and the musical qualities of the language used. poetry is notoriously difficult to translate from one language into another. In poetry, it is the connotations and the 'baggage' that words carry (the weight of words) that are most important. These shades and nuances of meaning can be difficult to interpret and can cause different readers to 'hear' a particular piece of poetry differently. While there are reasonable interpretations, there can never be a definitive interpretation.

Bereavement & Death

Bereavement for many is a devastating event, turning our world upside down, shattering our confidence in the future and changing our lives forever. Although we experience many losses throughout life, the death of a loved one is probably the worst loss we will experience.
