Wholeness and Compassion
As I say at the beginning of this video (closing the compassion gap) ‘what unites us in our vulnerability’.
I am noticing in my work and my life alongside my family and friends that compassion is more fully released and expressed through adversity and grief being acknowledged and validated. Our shared experience of pain and loss unlocks the energy and intention to meet suffering with kindness; this is our loving nature. Compassion is not partial, it should not be ‘reserved for patients’ – this is pity and is smothering. Compassion is all round us, literally right under our noses as kindness is never more than a breath away.
In health and social care there is a paradox – a subtle violence is done to those who struggle daily to show compassion (often in spite of the task and process driven system and culture) by not asking them about the impact…

Spiritual Liberation: The Philosophers Notes Challenge – Day 3
Welcome to day 3 of the challenge!
Today’s challenge is on Spiritual Liberation by Michael Bernard Beckwith.
For those not familiar with Michael, he is the founder of the Agape Spiritual Center, where his talks have been described as “electrifying,” and he also was one of the featured teachers in The Secret.
“My central message is not about religiosity or churchianity. It is about aspiring toward spiritual liberation, which I define as becoming free from the narrow confines of fear, doubt, worry, and lack, and living instead from a conscious awareness of one’s Authentic Self, one’s true nature of wholeness.
Spiritual liberation results from discovering and expressing the intrinsic qualities of enlightened consciousness that have been ours since the moment we came into existence. Simply put, all that is required to live up to our highest potential is already inside us awaiting our conscious activation. Living up to our potential is about becoming more ourselves, more of who and what we are as awakened beings, a central theme you will encounter throughout this book.” – Michael Bernard Beckwith from Spiritual Liberation.

Pema Chodron On Faith, Anger & Divorce
I like listening to Pema Chodron:
Here at MBG, we love Pema Chodron, and were thrilled to discover this candid conversation between the great Buddhist monk and Bill Moyers on PBS.
In this interview, Pema Chodron talks about the pain and anger she felt after her divorce and explains how her strong emotions drove her to her spiritual practice.
“If we could learn to not be afraid of groundlessness, not be afraid of insecurity and uncertainty,” she says, “it would be calling on an inner strength that would allow us to be open and free and loving and compassionate in any situation.”
With gems like this, the entire video is worth a watch.
Experiencing Silence in Siberia
Hmmm…
After 20 years of travelling around the world, including crossing the Himalayas on foot in 1997, he decided to follow his dream of living like a hermit. He travelled to Siberia and spent six months in a cabin on the shore of Lake Baikal with the merest necessities (that included books, cigars and vodka) and a six day walk from the nearest village.
He lived from February to July 2010 in silence, solitude and cold. He discovered that to follow a certain routine was helpful, although he admits the loneliness was difficult to bear. In spite of the daily hardship he found moments of ecstasy, inner peace and harmony. He learned that “You can spend a very great moment doing nothing”… and says that the three main things he felt were the quality of silence, amazing silence, and then the aloneness and the cold.
