SOUL STORIES

One of the warmest TV spiritual teachers shares stories about the value of believing that a higher form of intelligence is taking care of everything we need. Though we can trust this divine order, we are still responsible for ourselves and can make better choices by embracing all parts of our emotional life, even when painful, and not hiding from any part of our external experience. When we exist with this kind of openness, he tells us, the wisdom of the universe will serve us in unimaginable ways. His stories also teach us about conflict within the self and with others--when to push, when to stand firm, and when to let the soul of another cradle us as we squirm and settle down with these dilemmas.
