SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 204
WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE
OF HEAVENLINESS
+ Heaven and Earth are threads from one loom.
-- Shaker Proverb
+ Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.
-- Henry David
Thoreau
+ You see, I am not the only one convinced that we are in
heaven right now, right here. So many
wise teachers have experienced this glorious reality and tell us about it. Are
you one of the convinced or one who wants to be convinced? Let’s keep exploring these heavenly realms
and realize that, as Wayne Teasdale says, “as our listening and practice
mature, outer (stillness) and
inner (stillness) finally
collapse into each other … we find ourselves in the One.”
+ I would love it if you offered a guest post on this
practice or any practice. And, I have
work to do on my Heavenliness
page. Maybe you can help. Send an email with the subject “Heavenliness”
or “Guest Post” to John@abundancetrek.com.

SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 203
WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE
OF HEAVENLINESS
+ Have you been to the Burning
Bush? It’s not just for Moses you
know. OK, it’s a metaphor but it’s a
good one. We can encounter God in the
same way Moses did at the Burning Bush.
And we can hear God speak to us and say I AM. We can become one with the I AM. This is a mystical experience meant for all
of us. The importance of this
declaration of Oneness, simply saying I AM, becomes clear as we realize that we
can find it in all of the wisdom traditions of the planet.
Peter Russell is one of my favorite
spiritual guides. He is leading the way for those of us who want these
experiences, these wonderful, fantastic experiences in the heavenly realms. I invite you to be inspired by The Church of I AM and so
much more wisdom and guidance offered by Peter
Russell.
I invite you to write your own reflections on
the meaning and purpose of saying I AM.
You can write sentences which
begin with I AM such as I AM creating peace and justice or I AM making all
things new. The possibilities are
endless or I AM the Light of the World.
You are you know.
+ I would love it if you offered a guest post on this
practice or any practice. And, I have
work to do on my Heavenliness
page. Maybe you can help. Send an email with the subject “Heavenliness”

SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 149
+ Breath is the
bridge which connects life to consciousness, which unites your body to your
thoughts. Whenever your mind becomes scattered, use your breath as the means to
take hold of your mind again. -- Thich Nhat Hanh
+ Each and every breath is special, wonderful, holy,
fantastic, fascinating. Holiness is the goal of the
Journey of the Body. Our breathing is
the holy connection between body and soul, between earth and heaven. We are inspired, made holy, with each and
every breath. The more we can pay
attention to each holy breath, the more we realize we are heavenly. This is the truth, right now, right
here. Enjoy this holy moment, this holy,
healing, heavenly breath. This is the
Spirit flowing through us and all creation.
It is miraculous, mysterious and marvelous. We are indeed intimately, intricately,
infinitely connected by a matrix of unconditional, unlimited, uniting Love which is miraculous, mysterious
and marvelous.
+ Holiness
is not one of the 37 Spirituality & Practice practices BUT put Holiness
in their Search Engine and you come up with 460 items including 227 quotes,
168 books, 28 practices, 14 teachers, 12 arts links, 7 e-courses, 3 films and 1
blog as of 5/11/16. Go to http://www.spiritualityandpractice.com/search/?q=holiness.
+ The Body gets a lot of attention from Spirituality and Practice as you can see when you go to a link to “Body” on
their search engine. You will find 1611 items as of 4/26/16.
+ I would love it if you offered a guest post on this
practice or any practice. And, I have
work to do on my Holiness Page. Maybe you can help. Send an email with the subject “Holiness” or
“Guest Post” to John@abundancetrek.com.
