And if we don't believe that we can adulterate God's Universe, then what is all the hubbub about the need to change ourselves, other people and earthly circumstance? And if everything is acceptable as it is, are we to just accept expressions of evil, incivility and all forms of inflicted pain and suffering? What would that look like?

Episode: Viewing Your Art From a Proper PerspectiveOriginal air date: Thursday, February 05, 2009Episode Description:Most difficulty with life has to do with getting lost within our perspective. We paint a picture of life with our mind and memories, one with forms and expectations that we're familiar with.

Episode: Letting Your Fear Free YouOriginal air date: Thursday, January 22, 2009Episode Description:It is not that you must be free from fear. The moment you try to free yourself from fear, you create a resistance against fear. Resistance, in any form, does not end fear.

We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it."—J. Krishnamurti

Episode: Surrender to Immediate CircumstanceOriginal air date: Thursday, November 20, 2008Episode Description:Freewill is often championed as the quality of mind that allows us to change life circumstance.

What's wrong with this picture?

Episode: The Difference Between Consciousness and SpiritualityOriginal air date: Thursday, November 06, 2008Episode Description:Much of what's labeled as being spiritual is the avoidance of what's difficult about being human. The focus upon spirituality can be the very way we avoid Being present with our Spirit. Like the "Tower of Babel,” we can mistakenly task our minds in constructing a replica-state of Being that distracts us from releasing ourselves into the already present real thing. Wrestle this topic with Rev. Dale Blackford.

Episode: Indifference: Many a Spiritual Sojourner's Drug of ChoiceOriginal air date: Thursday, October 30, 2008Episode Description:Indifference is a creative form of unconscious mental subterfuge designed to support our sense of egoic-mind attachment, the continued generation of ongoing, compulsive mind chatter, the perceived necessity for problem-solving, and the maintenance of pain, suffering, and drama.
