This website is about the value of love, spirituality, the potential of the mind-body connection and the connection with all things. These are my daily thoughts about my life, my feelings, and my spiritual journey. I post these "Daily Journals" on a regular basis, so please come back often to read my latest posting.

No Single Cause
I find the belief expressed by Nisargadatta Maharaj, that nothing in the created universe has a single cause, that even the smallest event is the result of actions by the whole universe, to be very pleasing. It is a belief that feels right. I really like the idea of the universe acting in harmony in order to make things happen. As an example, he makes the valid point that it would be impossible for a woman to give birth to any individual without the sun and the earth. I also like the idea that if one can transcend the created universe and become one with the Supreme, that within that space, there is only the absolute with no causal relationships at all. It all works, nicely.
