October 04, 2009 The Art and Heart of Reflection
In today's talk, Rev. Patrick calls us to connect with and own our entire
being.
He touches on obsessive/compulsive behaviour and how to work with it, to find
something more interesting to think about.
The talk then shifts to a discussion of Carl Jung's statement, "I would rather
be whole than good." This ties in with the story of Beowulf, which is about
diving into the depths of our being---where we're struggling, where we're
challenged---and owning it. The re-owning of our dark aspects is an absolute,
essential, ethical act. We admit to our weaknesses so that they become our
strengths.

September 27, 2009 RE-Mind Me
Rev. Patrick reminds us of our connection with Spirit. We do this by healing
our perception, which gives us opportunity to connect to freedom and meaning.
Because our consciousness proceeds our experience, we take the perception of
our experience and transform it into something new and powerful.
How can we live a more devoted life? Show up in situations with this thought:
_How can I help?_ It is devotion instead of discipline. Devotion is bringing
your whole being to something. And the challenge? Letting more love in.
To heal our perception is to open the door to give birth to freedom and
meaning.

September 20, 2009 I Am Here To Be Seen
Do you ever wake up in the morning and feel like there's something wrong with
you, that you aren't good enough, and that you just aren't okay? Drawing from
several authors and poets, Rev. Patrick again encourages us that despite our
surroundings---facts about our life---_we are okay._ Our spirit is
untouchable, perfect, and full of joy.
What about fear? If you can step into it and bring your awareness to it,
you'll find that the fear of something happening is worse than the actual
thing happening. Become aware of where you carry fear in your body, and don't
deny its existence. Your openness is more powerful than _whatever_ feeling you
are opening to.

September 13, 2009 Manicures and Life Lessons
What we think, we become. What we believe, accept, and dwell upon becomes a
part of our being. We can focus on excellence in everything we do, from the
grocery store to the drive-thru. We don't need to be Mother Teresa; small
things matter, too.
There are lots of people who are looking for a really great spiritual teacher.
They think that someone else can teach them, but it isn't true---we teach
ourselves. We are equipped with everything we need. We cannot change anyone
else---only ourselves. Put down what others are struggling with, and make
peace with it.

September 06, 2009 Living in the Gap
What can we do in the face of pain, handicap, and tragedy? Rev. Patrick
reminds us that sometimes all we need to do is hold someone's hand and be the
consciousness, to love unconditionally. Our teaching helps us touch spirit,
live in the moment, go beyond our ego, and find our own answers. We can live
our calling, and be _in the flow_ in everything we do.

August 30, 2009 Transformation Through Play and Meaning

California. They experienced incredible unity, unconditional love, and deep
friendship.

August 23, 2009 Paving it Forward
Guest speaker [Elisabeth Fayt](http://www.elisabethfayt.com/) gives us insight
on how to use the law of attraction in every thought. The universe doesn't
know "no"---it says yes to whatever we think or say. Everything we think is a
"pre-pave" to how our lives unfold. The first waking thought is an important
one, because it sets the tone for the day. Why not think "Something wonderful
is going to happen today"? Why not answer the common question "How are you?"
with impact?---"I'm working on balance" or "I'm blissfully productive".
The energy behind every word and thought attracts more of that energy!

August 16, 2009 Transformation Through the Heart
Learning to re-parent ourselves is a great way to grow and manifest new things
in our lives. Rev. Patrick discusses the five stages, and the importance of
empathy as we connect and communicate with our world. Men often struggle with
some of the softer, right-brain skills, but they are so important.

August 09, 2009 Right Brain Thinkers Rule
Everything we think is some kind of prayer. We think with our left brain, but
we tap into creativity with our right brain. Music is so amazing because it
keeps us in the present moment. We are drawn to its artistry and duplicate it
in our hearts. If you want a creative life, do what you "can't" and experience
the beauty of the mistakes you make.
We know that Heaven isn't a destination---Heaven is now. We are Heaven.

August 02, 2009 Seeing the Truth of Life
There isn't always a reason for everything that happens. Two hundred years
ago, scientists fell in love with logic, and so now we tend to think there
must be a reason for everything. But for many tragedies, there is no answer to
the question "Why did this happen?".
Rev. Patrick reminds us what Dr. Holmes originally taught us: turn away from
the condition that you see and don't get caught in the delusions of life...
like the delusion of tragedies that don't have a reason. When you do, remind
yourself that:
> There is One Life,
That Life is God's life,
That Life is perfect,
That Life is my life now!
You are beautiful and extraordinary and there's not a thing you can do about
it!
