Spiritual ideas that inspire healing

What a way to remember in expressing God’s love and when you do you will find it becomes uniform through out your daily activity.
The interesting thing about this blog is the non-prejudice of it. Notice, the saying is from a Buddist and yet has the same spiritual understanding that we C/S preach. I hope, I don’t have to explain what I am tring to say?
The other day I felt compelled to thank the produce man in a large grocery chain for his artistic display of the fruits and vegetables. His face looked so sad, almost angry. I complimented him on the color arrangement, the diametrically shaped displays he put forth-I told him he was a true artist…………..the change in his demeanor was first, one of shock, then reality, then the smiles came! I thanked God for the “nudge” that I should say something compassionate and uplifting. it was not I, it was the Christ message of love that he felt. We should all have that compassion that Evan shared with us via the Dalai Lami and look for opportunities to bring joy and uplift to others. This was a “thank you. God” for me as I left with joy in my heart for having brought some happiness to him.
Thank you Evan for sharing this message and Thank you Pat G for sharing this demonstration! Quite uplifting and inspiring. “Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.” Luke 10:37
I don’t post often, but i like all the posts. Compassion speaks to me, for many healings I’ve had have started by my being compassionate. Thank you
I’m a muslim on paper. Throughout my 8 year incarceration, I studied CS with a lovely volunteer whose name is Linda. I was looking for God because I did 9 years time over a purposefully said lie. I am innocent. I saved a life and my whole life turned upside down. Along with CS, I studied Christianity, I studied Muslim religion, I studied Buddism. I started studying Jeduism. My time was up. I healed and discovered the truth through CS. I looked all the other religious books through CS way, I discovered that all say the same.
Then I asked Linda to read Quran. She said it is too wild. I asked her to read it and interpret like she does the Bible. I asked the same to another CS friend in Turkey who writes articles in the quarterly and Monitor. She said, ” She can’t”. Then I say CS is trying to the the same universal sales of a NAME – CS -. AND THAT IS NOT CHRIST OR PRACTICING BEING IN THE IMAGE OF GOD: All living is the same, from Japanase, african, atheist and so on. We all want to know and practice the LOVE we are. Displaying love has infinite forms. Thank you for being in my life.
Hi Fugen,
I agree with you that there is a universal Love we all have in common. And we need to look beyond all the human material distinctions to see that common Love that unites us in one family of God!
Thanks for sharing.
Dear Fügen,
Thank you very much for sharing. I also studied all different religion and read also the Quran, I wanted to understand people from different countries from their standpoint of religion, because I think that mankind is formed by their religious way of thinking.
I had to travel all over the world because of my profession and by having understood their way of thinking I started to love them because I understood them. And that is very beautiful.
Having read the different books from standpoint of C.S , I understood that it is not important what we read but how we read it, how we want to experience the writings how we interpret. When we do it with love and compassion they indeed tell all the same.
I am very happy for you that you found peace in you and the essence of life by C.S.
Best regards
