Miracles are Commonplace

We are matter (the size of a grain of sand) scattered through five or six feet of space,

held together by electromagnetic forces that nobody has been able to measure…

Kabbalah describes the soul as a kind of spiritual magnetic field.


Linking the soul to an identity is a mistake… There is a “great soul” that embodies all souls…Just as a water molecule in a raindrop is ultimately drawn to the ocean, one way or another, no matter how long it takes and how many incarnations it must go through, so too is awareness drawn to its source.


The well-known Kabbalist Nachmanides suggested there is a level of reality that supersedes nature and the orderly flow of things. In this higher reality, the miraculous is commonplace.


The only reason we think that a miracle is opposed to the ordinary flow of nature is because we do not have a broad enough scope of these other dimensions of reality. If we did, we would see that everything is dependent on miracles.

WE DON’T BELIEVE IN MIRACLES.

We rely on them.
