Monday: Does God actually guide us? And how do we avail ourselves of this guidance? Do we even really want to be guided by God?
Tuesday: The yogic understanding of the human psyche can help us to fine-tune our capacity to see life’s realities intelligently and with clarified precision. As the basis for our understanding, let us realize that we function on two levels of awareness according to the yogic tradition: the “citta mind” and the “buddhi mind.”
Wednesday: One of the buddhi mind’s capacities is intuition. Intuition is not the repression of intelligence, but the marriage of our finest intelligence with superhuman wisdom, the conscious link between the human mind and the divine mind. Intuition is human intelligence bowing to a transcendental intelligence that is above and beyond its own powers of reason.
Thursday: To acknowledge the existence of God means that we are not gods unto ourselves and that we must bow to something other than our own agendas or the pervading winds of culture.
Friday: Recently someone asked me if I was still a Christian. With great hesitation, I answered in the affirmative. My hesitation had nothing to do with my belief in Jesus as a great avatar. Rather, it stemmed from my understanding of what it means to be his disciple.
