Prayer in Secret

If you want to be free

If you desire union with God in perfect love

Always point the arrow inwards

For God is always within us

Patiently waiting for us to listen

As Jesus said in the gospel of Matthew

“But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

We must enter our inner room where the divine therapy takes place

Focus on your breathe till your mind is calm and at ease so you can hear his spirit

Contemplate God’s love and words within your heart and you will be healed, restored, and guided

The Interior Life

The interior life is one of silence

Striving only for divine union with God’s love

It is not one that strives for earthly riches

The false beacon of wealth, status, or fame will all fade away and lead us to great suffering

Look only within your own heart and seek the inner riches of being one with Christ in perfect love

When you are one with Christ, true joy and peace will rush within your heart

Do not be bothered by the impurities in your brothers and sisters

Focus on your own journey to Christ and God’s light will cast into the darkness of the world

Do not gossip about God and only speak humbly

Learn to he silent and listen to God’s voice within you

Be still and seek the Kingdom of God within your own heart and soul

Cloud of Unknowing

“With an empty mind and open heart, let yourself be naked before grace.

Let your mind rest in this dark awareness of God in all of this naked existence.

It is not who you are or what you’ve been that God sees with merciful eyes, but what you want to be.

Contemplative prayer, when done right, is the respectful love and ripe fruit.

It’s the cloud of unknowing, the hidden love-longing offered by a pure spirit.

It takes you into silence, far from thoughts and words.”

These quotes are from “The Cloud of Unknowing” which is a book of anonymous European monks from the medieval times. Full video on YouTube.

Enjoy 🙏🏻

Born in the Image of God’s Love

As I walk with the homeless

I see the divinity within them

What the world sees as unclean and unworthy

I see through the lens of compassion, mercy, and unconditional love

They are my brothers and sisters

They are worthy of love

I Walk With You Christ

Narrow is this path my lord

Stay near me as I walk into the darkness of this world

For you are the light of the world

May I drink with you at your well

The everlasting source of love within my own heart

May I eat with you

For you are the bread of life

O’ Christ

My soul only strives to be with you

And rest within your love

Love Your Neighbor

Jesus’s one commandment to his disciples was to love your neighbor

What is your neighbor?

Your neighbor is the poor, sick, and homeless

Your neighbor is the immigrant

Your neighbor is the LGBTQ community

Your neighbor is the pig, chicken, cow, and sheep

Your neighbor is the rainforest and it’s many wildlife

Your neighbor is the Earth

Love them with all your heart and soul

Don’t let fear, hatred or greed keep you from expanding your circle of love and compassion

We are Buddhas, We are Christs

To me Buddhism is studying how Jesus became Jesus and how we can become like him too through the holy spirit, similar to enlightenment or nirvana in Buddhism. It’s core belief is that we all can awaken and become a Buddha; actually we already are a Buddha but are lost in our attachments to worldly things and are consumed by our fear, greed, and hatred (sin in Christianity).
Buddha just means awakened one, similar to the title Christ in Christianity. We should not be scared of other spiritual traditions but our own fear, hatred and religious dogma that can blind us from seeing the truth and goodness in all religions. Be curious and open minded. This type of mindset is what Jesus and Buddha had in their times. This is not to assimilate or convert but to build brotherhood and sisterhood.

I found Jesus through a Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh who wrote a book called “Living Buddha, Living Christ” that changed my life 10 years ago.
He dedicated a lot of his life trying to bridge the two religions and fostering brotherhood and sisterhood.

The Holy Spirit of Love

When my mind is still through meditation I repeat Jesus’s words and the holy spirit is drawn to me and transforms me into Christ in that moment.

No words can describe this spiritual experience of deep love for all beings.

In those moments you are fully liberated from all fear, hatred, and greed.

You are truly alive.

When the holy spirit is within you, everyone is your brother or sister and you feel a deep river of joy rush through your body. ❤️🙏🏻

Born in the Image of Love

Why is God merciful to us?
Because we are his children.
Born in the image of love.


No matter how lost we are in the darkness of greed, fear, or hatred.
Our essence is his essence.
Our essence is love.

We all have the capacity to walk as Christ did. It’s our true nature that is buried under years of fear.
This is what God sees within us and when his spirit touches us deeply we see the divinity in others and become more peaceful and merciful. ❤️🙏🏻
