		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, Last week I watched a show on PBS entitled, &#8220;The Buddha.&#8221;  I recommend it highly.  It was very informative, but it also gave me an insight about suffering that I had never read or heard before.  Someone said Suffering was better defined as Disappointment.  It was an aha moment for me.  I have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, Having a concept of God is so tricky.  Who told us we could ever define the Essence of All There Is?  I love the Jewish Religion because it can&#8217;t even say the Name of G-d.  I also love the Hindu Religion because of the number of Gods it has.  Zen works with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, I read something the other day about how our willfulness gets in the way of God&#8217;s Will.  I do not believe in a God who has any difficulty with our willfulness.  God created everything, so therefore God is responsible for our desire to play god.  In the Christian tradition this is Holy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, In one of my devotions this morning, I read each of us has neurosis and wisdom inside of us.  The reality of the spiritual journey with no destination, which I happen to believe is the shortest route to God, is living in balance between those two emerging parts of our self.   The more I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spritiual Companions, I may be a slow learner, but I recently discovered much in life is nonsense.  As I broke the word down further I saw it as non sense.  There are things in life that seem to make more sense than others.  The key to living life fully, for me, is to spent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, Did God ever invite you to get off your religious high horse?  I had that experience recently.  God is never critical, but rather invitational, so when I heard from Her she asked me who I served.  Interesting question in this Lenten time isn&#8217;t it?  As we face the temptations of our lives, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Spiritual Companions, I was talking with a friend yesterday and we were talking about what is real.  One can get very philosophical about this or even religious, but that is the trap of the ego and I don&#8217;t want to get caught up in that today.  Instead, I want to ponder What is Real?  To [...]]]></description>
