What Gives You Meaning in Your Life?
Contributing to the new humanity gives me meaning beyond anything I could have possibly imagined. I write books, give events, and create programs to teach about creating authentic power—aligning the personality with the soul so that we can transform ourselves with our own wills instead of trying to change others. I am filled with meaning […]

Now and Forever the Deepest Cause
Blaming right wing politicians and commentators for the Arizona massacre, even those that are righteously brutal, cruel, and inciting to violence, deflects attention from its real cause. Blaming anyone always deflects attention from the real cause. Like our dysfunctioning economy, schools, health care, and businesses, the killing and maiming in Arizona has a deeper and […]
Signal and Noise
The signal-to-noise ratio tells us how clearly we receive information. Little noise and mostly signal is good. Satellite, cell phone, and TV reception are clear. Static, cross-talk, and other signals are bad. The signal is blocked. Anger, jealousy, superiority, entitlement, inferiority, need to please, obsessive thoughts (She’s so stupid; I’m so stupid), compulsive activities (workaholism; […]

None of that can help you when it comes to creating authentic power. Anyone can become authentically powerful. Even a rock […]
SPRING CLEANING
Windows are open wide in the Spring, carpets hang outside on the line, and the breeze is gentle and warm.

SEE GARY AND OPRAH ON TV AGAIN – ANYTIME
Here is a gift from Oprah and me – but first here is the backstory: In late fall 1998 one of Oprah’s producers called me – would I like to come to Chicago for a short interview with Oprah? Oprah and I had spoken by phone a few times over the previous years. The first time […]
BIRTHDAYS AND DEATHDAYS
Birthdays and death days are markers on a soul’s journey into awareness and freedom. Not all souls choose experiences of physicalness – learning in the domain of time, space, matter, and duality that we call home for a short time. In fact, in which we experience time. I look at each incarnation into the Earth […]
