May my enemies sleep well tonight
May they feel safe and loved
May they heal
May they be joyful like small children
For they are not my true enemy
My true enemy lies within my own greed, hatred and fear
With love,

God is Within Us
If you look for God in the sky above you
You will only dream
If you look for God within your heart and soul
You will awaken and heal from within
The kingdom of God is a seed of unconditional love within you
Water this seed and it will transform you
From fearful to an embodiment of love
From greedy to selflessness
All your worries will vanish
All your suffering will be transformed
Keep looking within yourself each moment of the day
Keep watering this seed of love within your heart and soul till your last breath
With love,
Johnny
Keep Your Eyes On Love

There is a light within you
Keep your eyes on this light

Follow this light of unconditional love and you will experience true liberation and joy
Let it transform you and heal you from within
If we keep our eyes on the darkness we will sink into the depths of fear and despair
Keep your eyes on the seed of unconditional love within your own heart
Be still and know true unconditional love

Abandon Everything
Abandon everything
Abandon all greed, hatred and fear
Abandon selfishness
Abandon all attachments to temporary pleasures
Those who have the courage to abandon everything will be rewarded
Yet do not focus on any reward because this itself is self centered
Just focus on your breath and open your heart
Let unconditional love purify your heart and soul from within you
Calm Within the Storm
No matter how strong the storm is
There is a blue sky above
The sun shining light into the darkness
On the surface of life all we see is suffering but if we look deeper we can see an ultimate dimension
Behind the dark storm of fear, hatred, attachments, and greed
Behind the suffering on the surface
There is a mysterious source of unconditional love
Infinitely compassionate and healing
This mysterious source of unconditional love goes by many names
Some call this God(holy spirit), Buddha nature, or the Dao
Every sage, guru, Buddha or prophet experienced this deeply and helped others so the same
We must develop deep faith is mysterious source of love to keep going on this path
With this faith our fears will vanish and we can help others see the light
This is the way of transformation and healing
This is the path of the peaceful warrior
Surrender everything and you will be liberated

Jesus’s Resurrection: A Beautiful Parable
I received a vision or deep insight 1 year ago that radically changed me
In deep meditation I suddenly was transported to a desert in the middle east. The Buddha and I meditating while watching Jesus dying on the cross. I could feel the sun and wind as if I was literally there 2000 years ago. Buddha asked me a simple question, what can you learn from this? I open my eyes and see Jesus die and resurrect. A deep insight touched my consciousness as healing tears roll down my face.
The more I surrender to God’s infinite source of love, the more I’m resurrected in the image of Jesus
The story we are told by most Christians is that Jesus died for our sins and that he literally resurrected. I’m not here to uplift this tightly held belief but to add a more deep and healing interpretation of those events. Even if I don’t believe what they believe, I will give them grace and love.
To be a follower of Christ we don’t need to believe in creationism, literally resurrection, or any dogma from the church. All we need is to look within our heart and open it to unconditional love, then you will know Christ deeply. Still your mind through the breath and open your heart to love.
This is not my opinion or belief but of my personal spiritual experience.
Not an act of faith but the ultimate dimension behind the suffering of the world.
So to surrender to God is just to let go of all self centeredness like greed, hatred, and fear.
To allow this infinite source of love transform us.
Jesus spoke in parables and God speaks to me in parables, so could Jesus’s resurrection be a parable as well? A beautiful parable that is practical, logical but able to heal people right here and now on this planet.
Meditate on this and let the infinite source of unconditional love heal you from the inside.
The way out is within you. 🙏🏻
With love,
Johnny
Many Streams, One Ocean
Many streams go to one ocean
Many paths to the mountain top
May we be liberated from religious dogma
May we be free to see the truth within all spiritual traditions
May we be curious and open minded
Like a child with a beginners mind
All we know is that we know nothing for certain
Pride, arrogance and closed mindedness keep us from seeing this beautiful truth
We don’t truly know what will happen to us when we die
We will never know what God truly is in this life time
All war and violence stems from believing we have the truth or that we are the chosen people
When discrimination and hatred enter the human heart, suffering and war are inevitable
May we stay humble and full of grace
Your brother,
Johnny

So you can fill me with your divine grace and humility
May I empty myself of all hatred, fear and greed
So you fill me with your infinite compassion
I empty myself to you God
I surrender to your unconditional love
