ORDINARY LIFE - Thoughts and Ideas to Help You Live a Happier Life

Summary of Ordinary Life for March 12, 2023

Dear Ones -
I continue to lay the groundwork to get into the teachings I want to do about Jesus and his teachings. This week I began with the fact that though the Five Remembrances are as solid as the law of gravity, we all live in denial of them and/or with the wishful thinking that they don’t apply to us. They do. A complication to this is that the religion most of us have been exposed to, Christianity, and the religion of our culture, consumerism, lead us to believe that the future is where we need to live - either heaven when we die or when we obtain whatever it is our culture is trying to sell us at the moment. In addition, our culture is not committed to truth telling. I use the current furor over the word “woke” to illustrate this. Our spiritual work and practice is to continue growing in our awareness of who we are and who Sacred Mystery is. I called the talk -
Good News! The Religion of No Escape
