Joy is found in unity. Relationships can be torn asunder by ego’s weapon of gossip. Guard against speech that divides. Build bridges of divine love with conscious speech.

Problems cannot be solved by a turbulent mind. When storms of anger and confusion are raging, take shelter in the Lord’s name until the storm passes.

God is one. In unity consciousness, there is no separate self with a problem. There is no duality, not two opposing powers. There is only God, one power of love and divine harmony. One.

Children are encouraged to build a healthy ego by learning to discover and express what they like and do not like, what they want and do not want. The mature adult on the spiritual path must put away this childhood task and learn to focus on being even-minded, on going beyond likes and dislikes. Then, peace is possible.

Fasting for a time, but all the while thinking of the forbidden feast at the end, is throwing food to desire. It grows stronger as it waits. The discipline of true fasting is a feast for the soul, with the heart and mind immersed in God. Only then is craving for what is not useful rendered powerless.
