[FairfieldLife] A Real Miracle

A few folks are saying this "God is All" business is just farfetched fantasy, without very much value. So I want to mention how I used it to work a miracle. If you're ill, simply go for the highest realization you can, but at the same time always do the practical thing. One time I had ap

When we’re quiet and listen to God, in no time we know clearly that God is All, and all that there possibly can be. There is nothing but God. So there can’t be God and something besides. You know that God cannot be sick or poor or in pain. So sickness, poverty and pain are impossible and pr

Many years ago I discovered that wholehearted surrender to “Thy will be done” can result in a very deep awareness of God’s allness. Why? Because that’s what God wills – that His Allness be known. And once it was known, my life became wonderful in many great ways. When you’re sure God is al

[FairfieldLife] The Truth According to Puppetji

The Truth According to Puppetji: http://www.puppetji.blogspot.com/ [:x]

[FairfieldLife] No-Frills Enlightenment

g that Truth will dissolve fear. And fear is the only thing that ruins peace. And so the less fear there is, the deeper will be your peace. And the deeper is your peace, the more you will be aware of God's Presence. That's it. Clear, simple, powerful, practical, and surprisingly effective. Does it sound too easy? Would you prefer instead the extremely difficult and monumental task of maintaining your un-enlightenment? Give it up. Much Love, Ben Gilberti <http://www.miraclescenter.us/gilberti.htm>

[FairfieldLife] Beyond What Matters

idea to just keep doing it. As often as possible, simply notice that you exist. You'll find that if you just keep doing that, everything else will fall into place. And the nice thing about this is that nobody has to take anybody's word for it. If one just does it, they'll find out for themselves. Much Love, Ben Gilberti <http://www.miraclescenter.us/gilberti.htm>

[FairfieldLife] What Matters

illusion enough rope to hang itself. It happens to me frequently, and did again just last night. My God what a tremendous emotional drama it was, but it's honest expression just ended up fizzling it all away, much to my relief, and surprise. Much Love, Ben Gilberti
