WHAT’S NEW? The powerful human spirit
In the wake of the devastation of Hurricane Harvey it is refreshing to see the compassion displayed by those both affected and unaffected. The past week has been a terrible, but beautiful, reminder of the power of humanity and a glimpse into the unsinkable optimism inside us all. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by Harvey as well as those preparing for Hurricane Irma.
Blessings & love, Sheri

OUR FEATURED ARTICLE
What Are You Seeking on Your Spiritual Path?
In my interactions with people over the years, I have heard many people’s concepts about what a spiritual path is and what they feel they are seeking. The reason I bring this up, is that it is critical that we understand who the entity is that is proposing those thoughts and why.
Yes, we all have a deep calling within us to be free – to be living our integrity. But the ego-mind is standing by watching that feeling well up inside us and it feels free to interpret that feeling and describe it as it sees fit – and to make it fit into the concepts and beliefs we already hold in our programmed minds.
Often I see people being drawn to have all kinds of mystical experiences to avoid addressing the dark aspects of their mind because this is an often painful and unpleasant experience. Yes, it is critical for us to experience ourselves as light perceiving light. By that I mean to be able to perceive without the human machine – to see with your spiritual eyes. To see the “what is” not the world that our human eyes assemble for us.
When we have this experience of “enlightenment” we realize that we are not our bodies or our minds, but that we have been gifted with these tools to assist us in functioning in this manifest reality. We are so much more than matter – we are the light and we can “see” as the light.
Having this experience can empower you to detach from your thousands of fear-based beliefs and have emotional peace and equanimity. It also allows you to see that there is nothing for the spirit to do on your spiritual path. Your spirit is just perfect the way it is. It is not “damaged” or “sick”. Having this experience allows you to see that the “sick” entity is the human mind, and that is where your attention must go if you desire to be free and at peace.
The key then is address the ego-mind and the lies within it that keep us locked into perceiving the world through the machine, the structure of the mind and its beliefs. Once we are free from this tyranny, we can see with our spiritual eyes at will, we can see that all the things that upset us are not outside of us, but instead are within us – within the construct of our thinking minds.
Our spiritual experiences allow us to detach from all the things that we “think,” and instead lead our lives from our hearts. This is a place that is absolutely silent, and it has nothing to do with the incessant internal dialogue that we have in our minds reflecting our personal point of view and thousands of fear-based beliefs.
I encourage you all to meditate on what I have put forth today and look deeply into yourself and your programmed mind. Understand that having “spiritual” experiences are important, but in the end it is your confrontation of your mind that will set you free.
And most importantly, have faith that your life is perfect, (painful or not) as it is taking you where you need to be to transcend what you believe and set you free.
Love & Blessings, Sheri
