Harry Potter is one boy in a long line of mythical heroes who have reminded the human race that we are so much more than we think we are, so much more powerful than we seem to know. Jesus said that we would someday do even greater works than He; should we not take Him at His word? And should not 'someday' be today? It's time for us to start working miracles, if indeed we have the capacity within us to do so.

From a pure metaphysical perspective, there is no world outside ourselves. So, at the deepest level, the state of the planet is more a reflection of the consciousness of mankind than the consciousness of mankind is a reflection of world events.

The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of love.

Life is hard enough, you don't have to embellish the drama!

The enlightened world will be one in which everyone is in love with everyone all the time. We will see each other as God created us: as the perfect, loving, and lovable people we really are. The purpose of romantic love is to jump-start our enlightenment.

Creating the world we want is a much more subtle but more powerful mode of operation than destroying the one we don't want.

The universe is already programmed to give each of us a year of happiness. Our challenge lies in programming ourselves to receive it.
