The True Power of Goodness

Sometimes, we all look around at the mess and problems of our society and world and think, "Good heavens. We'll never resolve all this!" It's overwhelming. Worrying. Scary even.

But we're heading into Christmas time, and if ever there is an opportune time to take steps to remedy society's distortion, it is now. Surrounded as we are by these serious issues of lack of faith and charity, it's always beneficial to call forward the true spirit of Christmas.

Today on Healing Through Consciousness, the True Power of Goodness.

And I'm not talking about "letting a smile be your umbrella" or any of those other thousands of homilies that suggest we can raise our spirits simply by using slogan-adorned T-shirts or fridge magnets.

I remember my brother coming home from college for the holidays and lamenting that it was getting harder and harder each year to feel the Christmas spirit. In those days, I think we all though that if you just carried on, sooner or later the spirit would just kick in somehow ... like a perennial tulip bulb just awaiting the right conditions before awakening.

This is somewhat delusional, of course, thinking that the Christmas spirit would emergy spontaneously like spring.

No, my friends. To create a spirit of something, we need to take appropriate action. This is what opens the door to a resonance with spiritual things. My brother was waiting for the thing to hit, like waiting for the roulette wheel to come around with the ball in the pay-off slot.

And this need for good action is never more required for all of our social ailments than today. If we want something better, we've got some work to do.

Our program today is the result of a heart-felt email from a woman named Jan, and it affords Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco the opportunity to launch off on an expansive consideration of some of the principal issues facing us and our modern, technologically advanced but inverted society.

Your emails and calls to participate are always welcome. joneshealing@gmail.com

So let's jump in to the true power of gooodness by considering Jan's email.
