I got this from Beliefnet’s Daily Hindu Wisdom newsletter.

A
king asked a sage to explain the Truth. In response the sage asked the
king how he would convey the taste of a mango to someone who had never
eaten anything sweet. No matter how hard the king tried, he could not
adequately describe the flavor of the fruit, and, in frustration, he
demanded of the sage “Tell me then, how would you describe it?” The
sage picked up a mango and handed it to the king saying “This is very
sweet. Try eating it!”

– Hindu teaching story

How true, how do you explain a spiritual experience if someone has never had one? What if we think we have never seen or felt or heard an angel? What if we have no idea how to see the world through the eyes of love?


As you read this blog post I will be half way to Latvia and Lithuania. When they contacted me to come teach in their country I had to look on a map to find out where they were. They are amazing countries that endured years of occupation by the Soviets and untold hardships. Some of their amazing old churches became warehouses and insane asylums yet the beauty and the architecture survived.

So how do you describe a spiritual experience? How do you explain what life looks like through the eyes of love? How do you help people drop their judgment and expand their awareness? How do you savor each and every moment? How do we live from a place of profound connection and share the gift each moment of life brings us?

Calling all angels….. help us all live life fully aware of your presence and love, now and always.

With love and aloha,
