By Debra Basham, on December 27, 2021 The wisdom of all ages and cultures emphasizes the tremendous power our thoughts have over our character and circumstances. ~Liane Cordes
On Christmas Eve I joined a Zoom Interfaith gathering. Jeshua’s message,”You Are the Light That Comes to Transform the Earth,” channeled by Barbara Brodsky, was powerful. Here are a few excerpts:
People have sometimes […]
By Debra Basham, on December 22, 2021 When my eyes fill with wonder and my heart with love or joy, I do not betray my concerns for the world — I nourish my capacity to attend to them.

I confess to recently having looked into the mirror and noticing a drooping of my jowls, deep crevasses of […]
By Debra Basham, on December 10, 2021 We are enjoying wonderful weather here on Pine Island. Whether the weather is pleasant or unpleasant, John and I continue to navigate some challenging physical stuff.
John started with planting a mum early November in Michigan’s hard autumn ground. Stepping on the shovel with his right leg, he felt a pop in his low […]
By Debra Basham, on December 3, 2021 Tuesday evening while still in the post-overnight-drive malaise, I tried to log on as Zoom host for our Dharma Path class. It said “username / password incorrect” so I tried again. Same thing. Then the foggy thinking took over and I questioned if the link was set up on one of the other accounts. I […]
By Debra Basham, on November 22, 2021 For, although it is true that fear and despair can overwhelm us, hope cannot be purchased with the refusal to feel.
~Susan Griffin
“This time tomorrow” drifts through my head like lyrics to a song I am singing but have never heard. An internet search brought a song by that name by The Kinks.

By Debra Basham, on November 17, 2021 Perhaps it is busy mind preparing for our seasonal move south, or maybe the Beaver Moon (named for the November moon because of how the beavers prepare for winter), but I am wide awake and have fingers on the keyboard. While darkness drapes the sky, I am listening to an amazing Lion’s Roar interview with […]
By Debra Basham, on November 15, 2021 I just attended a 3-day Vipassana retreat with Barbara Brodsky, Aaron, and John Orr, “The One Heart We All Share.” This was the online description:
What is this one heart we all share? It is our true nature, the essence of our being, which is love and light. Meditation is one effective way of coming […]
By Debra Basham, on November 4, 2021 “Just because we are afraid doesn’t mean anything is wrong. Doesn’t mean a mistake is being made. Doesn’t even mean, necessarily, we’re in danger.”
~ Adyashanti, “Letting Go of Fear” from In the Face of the Infinite
It is 6:21 am and I am sitting with an ice pack on my left hip writing […]
By Debra Basham, on October 28, 2021 From the 1992 film, “Death Becomes Her”:
[Lisle (Isabella Rossellini) hands Madeleine (Meryl Streep) the vial of potion.]
Madeleine: “Bottoms up.”
[She drinks the potion.]
Lisle Von Rhuman: “Now a warning.”
Madeleine: “NOW a warning?”
This information may feel a lot like that. It has been an intense yet slow-moving past few months, with […]
By Debra Basham, on October 13, 2021 From my journal entry of an exercise during class on mediumship with Barbara Brodsky:
