Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Missing the point


Never invoke the gods unless you really want them to appear. It annoys them very much.
Gilbert K. Chesterton

-----------------------------------------------------------

the Sacred One can be so inconvenient
it seems he wants to turn the world upside down
it seems he wants to turn me upside down

now what is it about that?

it is so wonderful to be right
It is so amazing to be “a winner” in life

this game we play of domination
is so convenient
if you are in power
if you have money
if you have position and privilege
if you can present yourself as righteous and holy

but it is not so convenient…
for the poor
those afflicted by mental illness
for immigrants
or minorities
or even most women

and when domination is flaunted by those in the government
and when domination is embraced by those who would call themselves ‘christian’
the insult to Christ is magnified

Christ calls us to union with God
Christ calls us into communion with one another

Christ’s way is about giving, forgiving
Christ’s way is about serving

He showed us the way
there in the dirt
washing feet
what it looks like to be fully awake to God

Think of that, God in the dirt
Washing feet

I’d like to see the President
Or a congressman
In the dirt
washing feet

Hell, I’d settle for a little compassion

I’d like to see the CEO who makes $10,000 an hour
washing the feet of that worker who makes $7 some an hour

Hell, I’d settle for a little equality

even a little
how about $15 an hour
I know, I know, the “job creator” would make only $9,990 an hour
but I am sure such a sacrifice would be acceptable to the Beloved

I like to see a mega-church pastor wash some feet
You know
Before they board that private jet and head back their mansion

Heck, I’d settle for a little Gospel
a little good news

I can’t even escape the revolution myself
there are so many ways in which my life needs to be turned
upside down

the reality is Jesus looks on
and says
as the legislators legislate their version of morality
as the choirs sing
and the preachers preach
and the righteous strut

“what the hell is this!”

so many say
“come Lord Jesus”
do they really want that?
Really?

  1. Dear friends:

    We would like to offer you a free book for your daily study and meditation about the future prophesies of the world, economy crisis, the planet ecological disaster, how and why the increasing of earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis and typhoons around the world and the end of humanity.

    Hercolubus or Red Planet written by V. M. Rabolu is a book which speaks about the most imminent events to come. In this small book, the author tackles serious topics of actuality that are happening nowadays like the atomic tests in the ocean and the fatal consequences causing the unbalance changes of the climate around the world. He describes the controversial question of the existence of conscientious beings in other planets of the universe. Likewise, he confirms the existence of an enormous planet, six times bigger than Jupiter, which is approaching our planet in an alarming way. He describes the consequences for us.

    In his book, V. M. Rabolu teaches the system to eliminate the psychological defects and the techniques of the astral unfolding to be the only existing key to escape from the coming cataclysm.

    V.M. Rabolu (1926-2000) was born in Tolima (Colombia). In 1952, he found the true knowledge by means of many years of practicing what he teaches in this book. He managed to develop his extraordinary capacities that transformed him into a spiritual guide of international renown.

    In 1998, he wrote "Hercolubus or Red Planet" based in his direct and conscientious experience. V.M. Rabolu describes the terrible events that will happen in a short term. He teaches the way to obtain a deep transformation of the human being. Nowadays, the statements in his book have been recognized by a large number of readers around the world who are getting many benefits from his teachings.

    V.M. Rabolu is one of those few souls with awakened Conscience, and his teachings have become indispensable in these times when materialism and the lack of moral values have transformed our society into a madness and chaos full of wars, alcohol, drugs, sexual abuse, misery, painting a very dark future for new generations.

    Hercolubus or the Red Planet is written above all with a great dose of sensibility and love for humanity. The assertions contained in the book will draw the attention of society as the events unfold in the near future.

    From the table of contents:

    Hercolubus or Red Planet

    Nuclear Tests in the ocean and the ecological disasters

    Elimination of the Psychological Defects or Egos

    Astral Unfolding and its techniques

    The mystery of life in other planets

    The Book synthesizes our work with three factors: The elimination of the psychological defects, with which every person can achieve scientific chastity and the love for humanity and our planet.

    V.M. Rabolu’s message is clear and conclusive: "Human beings must increase their level of conscience to overcome the forthcoming worldwide calamities."
