Four Questions

by rbenns on February 5, 2010

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

In one way or another each of us are asking ourselves four questions.  Many of us ask these questions consciously but most of us ask them unconsciously.  Regardless of the way you ask these questions – you will ask these questions.

Who are you?

Where did you come from?

Why are you here (what’s your purpose?)

Where are you going when you leave this place?

The interesting paradox to each of  these questions is that they have no definite answer.  In other words, the questions are so huge that each time you attempt to answer them you ultimately will leave something out.  The best that you can do is come close to an answer that suits you but even then you will know that is not quite it.

Everything you do in life in centered around finding out the answers to these four questions.  You interweave it into your daily activities without even knowing you are doing so.  Why?  Because you are spiritual being having and human experience and its simply what spiritual beings do.  Spiritual beings seek to experience all aspects of their divinity.

These questions particularly come to the surface when one or more of the following happens;

  • Death
  • You or someone you know loses a job
  • You or someone you know ends a relationship or gets a divorce
  • You or someone you know has a serious health challenge
  • An act of nature occurs (hurricane, flood, tsunami, tornado)
  • Birth
  • Financial Crisis
  • Drug Addiction
  • Alcoholism

It is in times of our greatest challenges and “tragedies” that we ponder these questions more deeply.  It does not have to be this way.  You can begin to seek the answers to these questions now.  When you get an answer that is satisfactory to your soul you will know it.  Once you know it then you must live it in everyday and in everything you do, say and think.  It must become a way of life for you.

That’s my spin on it.

A Reason To Love You

by rbenns on February 1, 2010

When you combine good singing with seductive lyrics and awesome string instruments it just makes you want to do naughty things.  I shouldn’t say naughty because that’s such a relative term.  What I would call naughty someone else would merely call child’s play.

I don’t need a reason to love you because I love me and you’re just a bonus.  Can you feel this song?  Are you open to feeling it?  Are you willing to be seduced by it?  It is a bit dodgy isn’t it?

That’s my spin on it.

You Need More Money

January 29, 2010

What you’ve got is what you need.  If you needed more money then you would have more.  You don’t have the money that you think that you need yet you’re doing just fine.  Need is an illusion of the mind.  Question it.  Have you ever needed more money than you’ve had?  Of course not.  Isn’t [...]

Your Authentic Swing

January 28, 2010

Your authentic swing is not something that you can find out about by looking outside of yourself.  You can’t call up your best friend on the phone and ask them to help you find your authentic swing.  You’ll never discover it being in your mind.  You can only find your authentic swing by feeling it [...]

Honey, Is That True?

January 25, 2010

I had the pleasure of listening to the wisdom of Byron Katie tonight at the Unity Church in Dallas.  The best way for me to summarize the experience was to say that each one of her statements could be a 1,500 word post on this blog.  The good thing that I left with is that [...]

Love is not something you chase, love is what you are.  You don’t not have to seek love because you are love.  Love is ever so present even when it seems to be hidden from your view.  There’s a place out there where we all will agree and that’s love.  Look into the next person’s [...]

A Year Will Pass By Anyway

January 17, 2010

Anthony Robbins once said “If you would do the things that others are unwilling to do for one year that you could live the life that others only dream about.”  This statement has always intrigued me because its only asking for a one year commitment. However, I’ve since learned that a year is quite a [...]

Oil and water don’t mix neither does money and lack of consciousness. We want the sugary foods but we don’t want the extra pounds. Everybody wants the money but few seem to want the consciousness that goes along with having more money.
