• Sensing the Other Members

    Tonight there was an online Eckankar meeting. Everything was going well, until my teenage son came into the room, sat down next to me (headphones on) and started talking VERY LOUDLY. He forgot I was in an online meeting and his headphones had noise cancelation which made him want to just talk to me as…

  • Love is the Law

    Love is the Law

    These scriptures claim that the good go into some heavenly paradise, while the evil will be punished forever in some fiery region. This is the Law of the Opposites, or Polarity. Those who are good attract the good, and those who are evil attract the evil. But in the heavenly states, it’s found that polarity…

    The Death Wish of Humanity

    Today I was reading a random selection from the Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad. I came across a passage about self-destruction and suicide. The initial part I found interesting which was the idea of the death wish (self-destruction) as an aspect in all people. All men have the death wish ingrained within themselves.

  • Effects of HU

    Chanting HU for 15+min provides a sense of change in my consciousness. The first few minutes, I find my mind drifts. When I continue and persist beyond 10min….

  • Songs of Sugmad

    Songs of Sugmad

    This music is AI generated, with a tone of the Beatles, with lyrics that adhere to the exploration of Eck, Eckankar and Sugmad. I find, even AI generated, the songs are lovely and lend to feelings of worship, thanksgiving and peace of mind.

  • Song: Spiritual Roadmap

    Song: Spiritual Roadmap

    This “band” is AI generated. The work was generated and the stems mastered in Ableton. I wanted to capture the theme of how our lives are like wondering roads. What seems random is karma. May your spiritual path be a blessing unto you.
