Make Light Real Understanding the Darkness to be the Light.

Grinning shadow

Hello, I'm Neil Cowley - this site is my creative journal released to you for your blessing.

In my study of darkness, the light reveals itself to my consciousness.

As I raise my consciousness to create, light illuminates my path and creation manifests.

May you be blessed in your creation, and walk your path open to the light.

Mind

Neil August 25th, 2010

The Way bears sensation,
Sensation bears memory,
Sensation and memory bear abstraction,
And abstraction bears all the world;
Each thing in the world bears feeling and doing,
And, imbued with mind, harmony with the Way.

As others have taught, so do I teach,
“Who loses harmony opposes nature”;
This is the root of my teaching.

when we learn to cultivate relationship

Neil August 2nd, 2010

When we learn that the priority beyond failure is restoring relationship rather than accepting punishment, we begin to cultivate them.
