00:00:00 | Good morning and welcome to the Center for Spiritual Living Midtown, such as the nature |
00:00:07 | of life that all it asks and all it wants is the opportunity to appear. |
00:00:13 | You are that opportunity, so am I and so it is. |
00:00:18 | We're so glad you're with us today. |
00:00:20 | We are celebrating our last week in this month of celebrating joy and celebrating possibility, |
00:00:28 | although possibility is always a part of what we're about. |
00:00:31 | But we're glad you're here. |
00:00:32 | We are a center that celebrates life, celebrates possibility, celebrates the you and what |
00:00:39 | you are about and who you are and what can come forward from your life in your life by |
00:00:44 | applying spiritual principles to your everyday existence. |
00:00:49 | We offer those principles, we teach them, we teach them, we teach them, we teach them, and |
00:00:54 | we speak on them every Sunday. |
00:00:56 | Also this week I'm very glad you're here with us, we believe in you, whoever you are, |
00:01:01 | whatever you're understanding of yourself and however you identify yourself. |
00:01:07 | So we are a place where you're welcome, where you're loved, and where you're appreciated. |
00:01:13 | There's a line in the 12th step programs that says we may not know you, but we love you |
00:01:20 | anyway. |
00:01:21 | And that's basically where we stand. |
00:01:25 | So I'd like for you to know a little more about us and to do that, I invite you to pay attention |
00:01:33 | to our what we believe video. |
00:01:51 | I believe. |
00:01:52 | I believe. |
00:01:53 | I believe in one guy. |
00:01:54 | I believe in the absolute power and first cause to all things. |
00:01:58 | I believe that this power is perfect love and create out of a desire to express love. |
00:02:06 | I believe all thought is creative and how I choose to think creates my personal experience. |
00:02:11 | I believe in the unity of our life. |
00:02:13 | I believe in my power and the unity of love forever untold. |
00:02:18 | I believe. |
00:02:19 | I believe. |
00:02:20 | I believe in eternal goodness. |
00:02:21 | The eternal loving kindness and the eternal givingness of God to all. |
00:02:28 | And so it is. |
00:02:29 | And so it is. |
00:02:31 | And so it is. |
00:02:32 | And so it is. |
00:02:37 | If you want to know more about what we believe, that that was a portion of our declaration |
00:02:43 | of principles, you can find the full version on our website, cslmidtown.org. |
00:02:50 | Today I am functioning as both minister and practitioner. |
00:02:54 | And what is important about that is that every minister in this teaching is a practitioner |
00:03:01 | first. |
00:03:02 | Not only because we're trained as practitioners first, but also because it is how I how we think |
00:03:09 | a practitioner recognizes a higher truth or sees beyond the either or the us and them into |
00:03:15 | a greater awareness of oneness and in so doing can bring greater freedom, truth, love and power |
00:03:22 | to their individual lives and to those of others. |
00:03:25 | So today I want to share with you a little story. |
00:03:30 | In 2013, my granddaughter was about almost three years old. |
00:03:34 | She would say now she was three, but she was almost three. |
00:03:38 | And my mom had just passed away after an expected and rather lengthy illness. |
00:03:44 | When we went down to the little church in North Florida into the small town to participate |
00:03:50 | in her funeral. |
00:03:52 | And my granddaughter was like I said almost three. |
00:03:57 | We came into this to the church and the family came in first and we were kind of getting |
00:04:02 | settled and all of the people were gathering around the back of the auditorium and not yet |
00:04:07 | come in to be seated. |
00:04:09 | And my granddaughter noticed the microphones up front and being the widely character that |
00:04:17 | she was and still is to some extent, she tore up to the front got loose from her mom and |
00:04:25 | ran up front and grabbed a microphone and started singing the top of her lung now that |
00:04:32 | Mike wasn't turned on yet, but that didn't matter because like every child in America at that |
00:04:38 | time almost, she knew the words to frozen from one end to the other. |
00:04:45 | And she started in on Let It Be and she sang it and she sang it and she knew every motion |
00:04:53 | that the character on the cartoon did while she was singing. |
00:04:58 | She knew every word, she sang on pitch, it was quite a performance. |
00:05:03 | Her mom tore after her once she got up there and started it and I just gave her a little |
00:05:09 | signal to say no, I'm going to do that. |
00:05:12 | Let her finish because what I knew of my mother is that she would have been more thrilled |
00:05:16 | with that than any of the other things that were said about her or said during the memorial. |
00:05:23 | Because she so loved and honored the giftedness and the joy of her great grandchild and |
00:05:30 | great grandchildren along with all of her other family members. |
00:05:36 | So what that illustrated for me is that in the midst of the most sad and difficult grief |
00:05:44 | and pain, there is the element of joy that is always there and it's there because people |
00:05:52 | come together. |
00:05:54 | It's there because each person brings their own element of their lives and their consciousness |
00:06:00 | to the moment. |
00:06:02 | And for Sophie that was a moment of opportunities he's singing and that's all she needed |
00:06:07 | if she had a microphone. |
00:06:10 | And you know it brought the whole family together, we were able to laugh. |
00:06:15 | Some of the folks at the back of the room were on the shot that we didn't stop her. |
00:06:20 | But most of them, most people I think had some appreciation of what she did and they knew |
00:06:25 | my mother well and knew that she would have appreciated it too. |
00:06:30 | So I invite you to consider that in any situation what is true is within each of us there |
00:06:38 | is still joy and that joy brings us together. |
00:06:42 | That joy when it's felt allows the barriers to break down, you know, and some of us |
00:06:48 | laughed and some of us cried and and whichever that expression was we were able to connect |
00:06:54 | and hold one another and be in that moment in a very, very special way. |
00:07:00 | And I am always and will always be grateful to my granddaughter for that moment. |
00:07:06 | So as we move into spiritual mind treatment which is an opportunity for you to connect |
00:07:11 | with that oneness within you and to know something greater and something better. |
00:07:17 | I invite you to consider as we consider bringing greater joy into every moment. |
00:07:26 | So know this with me. |
00:07:28 | There is one but one power, one infinite intelligence, one universal presence, one life, |
00:07:36 | one love. |
00:07:37 | It is showing up in, as and through each of us in each of you. |
00:07:43 | And as it does, it shows up in all of its multiple aspects. |
00:07:50 | Everything you may think of is the quality of the infinite, the quality of God shows up |
00:07:56 | in the moment in your life at some time or other and whether it's showing up on the outside |
00:08:04 | or not, it's present and it's always there. |
00:08:09 | So by action of this treatment, I choose to believe, I choose to bring forward into my everyday |
00:08:14 | life, greater opportunities for the expression of joy. |
00:08:20 | I bring that joy from within me and communicate it out into the world around me. |
00:08:29 | I am not in any way bound by the experiences of the world, by the circumstances of the world |
00:08:35 | or the circumstances around me in the world. |
00:08:40 | I tap into the depth within me where spirit resides, where life is, and in a deep breath |
00:08:48 | and a recognition. |
00:08:51 | Ah, I simply awaken that deep resonating joy that is within me. |
00:09:03 | You may show up as calm, as peace, as beauty, it may show up on the outside, as tears and |
00:09:10 | sadness or tears of joy or simply laughter and silliness. |
00:09:19 | But it's always there and available to me. |
00:09:25 | So by action of this treatment and this intention setting, I choose to experience and |
00:09:32 | to recognize and to know joy, more and more and more fully, freely and express more richly |
00:09:41 | right here and right now. |
00:09:45 | I dive into it. |
00:09:47 | I remember the opportunities where joy showed up when I least expected it and build on |
00:09:54 | that, knowing that I am building my faith in the infinite moving in me as me and through |
00:10:01 | the |
00:10:02 | journey. |
00:10:03 | Knowing that this is real, knowing that this is how life works, in great gratitude, I can |
00:10:08 | release this now, let it be so. |
00:10:12 | And so it is. |
00:10:16 | Thank you. |
00:10:17 | I guess Peter today is Reverend Dr. Raymont Anderson. |
00:10:22 | He is a friend and he is also one of the dynamic, amazing kind of people. |
00:10:28 | You can see all of his bio and data on our website or in the newsletter that you may |
00:10:34 | received. |
00:10:36 | And before he speaks, however, we're going to hear from Faith Rivera, the musician, where |
00:10:44 | she sings Stan together. |
00:10:48 | Thank you. |

00:14:43 | Namaste and greetings, CSL Midtown and thank you for inviting me back and thank you Dr. Bob |
00:14:52 | Dean for inviting me back so that we can share and play together. |
00:14:58 | So yes, today that's exactly what we're talking about this idea of, you know, for the entire |
00:15:04 | month we've been talking about how important it is to engage, enjoy, to engage in play, |
00:15:12 | to have moments of rest, to, in order to be our healthiest, happiest, most empowered |
00:15:20 | selves. |
00:15:21 | Like that's what this month has been about. |
00:15:24 | And today we're diving into this specific element of what it means to play. |
00:15:30 | Now the word itself can mean a variety of things to play a sport. |
00:15:35 | For example, why do we play games? |
00:15:38 | Football, chess, tic-tac-toe, scrabble. |
00:15:42 | Like why do we play any of these things? |
00:15:45 | And on the surface, the first answer we might give is for the sake of competition. |
00:15:51 | We love to compete. |
00:15:52 | Yeah, yeah, and that's an element of it. |
00:15:54 | And we're going to talk more about that a little bit later. |
00:15:57 | But if we dive deeper into this idea of coming together to play, even if it's Broadway, |
00:16:06 | it's theater, there is a play you come together, whether you are playing an instrument. |
00:16:15 | All of this is about connection, coming together to connect, to connect with the music and |
00:16:23 | the audience, to connect with the people in the stand and the people on the field, to connect |
00:16:29 | with the person sitting across from you at the checkerboard, to connect with, like |
00:16:35 | mindedness, to connect. So ultimately, this idea of play, dare I say, is about connecting |
00:16:46 | with and as spirit. Because think about it. |
00:16:55 | God is all there is. And being all there is, that means everything that is happening |
00:17:03 | is God acting upon itself. So when I sit down to play, whatever it is I'm playing, an instrument |
00:17:13 | playing a game, whatever it is, it's God incarnating in through and as me, manipulating whatever |
00:17:24 | this thing is on the board, moving chess pieces, throwing a ball, it's God acting upon itself. |
00:17:33 | But why? For what purpose? For the purpose of intrinsic joy. Ultimately, we are playing and |
00:17:43 | engaging in this thing called play because it makes us feel good. And as emicurt is hopping |
00:17:51 | says, my God is my good and vice versa. My God is my good and my good is my God to be engaged |
00:18:02 | in this process of intimate, ultimate, absolute goodness itself is to be engaged in God, to be |
00:18:14 | engaged in spirit, to be engaged as spirit. That's why Ernest Holmes even says, the only |
00:18:22 | God we would ever truly know or understand is the one that we embody. And we know that if you're |
00:18:28 | going to play a sport, play a game, play an instrument, you have to be all in. You are in the zone. |
00:18:37 | So same thing. When we are playing this game of life, are we all in? Are we committed |
00:18:47 | to this primal energy, this tapping into what it means to be connected to the universe, |
00:18:54 | connected to spirit? Or are we simply an onlooker, a spectator, a bystander? Ernest Holmes says, |
00:19:05 | if we feel them that we are simply onlookers, bystanders and are not participants in the game of |
00:19:13 | life, we should rediscover. We should rediscover the youthful spirit of that childlike joy, |
00:19:21 | which gives us the energy, happiness, security and faith that we had as children, recapturing |
00:19:33 | that energy, even Yeshua, Jesus the Christ said, bring the little children unto me, bring |
00:19:39 | these people to me who are youthful in spirit, who are open at the top, who are willing to play |
00:19:49 | to engage life fully. See, kids, there's no apprehension about diving in a puddle of mud. There's no |
00:19:59 | apprehension about playing in a pile of leaves. Kids go all in. Are we willing to play to that |
00:20:08 | degree as well? Are we willing to recognize that playfulness allows us to remember and to reconnect |
00:20:17 | with the core truth of our being that God is all there is and every interaction that we have with |
00:20:25 | anything, everything and everyone is God interacting with itself. So what happens when we shift |
00:20:33 | from the consciousness of competition, right? Like the mass idea of competition, we can have |
00:20:41 | a playful competition, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. But when we compete and we take on |
00:20:47 | this idea that when I win and I have the trophy or the gold metal, it means that I am better than you. |
00:20:53 | I have an Oscar, you don't. I'm a better actor or director for I have won. See, when we get into |
00:21:03 | that idea of competition, then there's judgment and criticism and there's all of that stuff |
00:21:09 | othering and separation, playful competition is play. It's simply engaging in the game and there's |
00:21:18 | nothing wrong with that. So when we step into this idea of true playful competition, what happens? |
00:21:27 | We shift into the consciousness of cooperation, communication and collaboration and we are |
00:21:33 | willing to engage from this space of this consciousness of oneness. There's no more separation. |
00:21:41 | There's no more need to be better than or feel that we are worse than someone else. We recognize |
00:21:48 | the infinite truth and unity that God is all there is. And when we are in that space, we understand |
00:21:57 | and we bring about this energy of healing and not healing because we are healing something, |
00:22:05 | but healing because we are bringing the truth to the space, bringing truth to the world. |
00:22:12 | And when we do that, we resonate with the words of Anne Frank who said, |
00:22:17 | "Yet I keep all my ideals because in spite of everything, I still believe that people |
00:22:27 | are really good at heart." And Frank, take into your consciousness and Frank who experienced great |
00:22:37 | horrendous tragedies, I still hold to my principles. I hold to truth. People are truly good at |
00:22:48 | heart. Why? Because God is all there is. Because spirit is all there is. Love is all there is. |
00:22:55 | And in that we understand that people have free will, you have choice, but back of the essence of |
00:23:06 | the truest part of you, even when you are choosing whatever this ineffective non-life affirming |
00:23:13 | thing is, the truth of you is goodness. The truth of you is love. The truth of you is the divine |
00:23:21 | incarnating itself in through and as you breathe. |
00:23:26 | Breathe. Because we are being invited into a new space of recognizing the truth of our being. |
00:23:37 | We need not be bound by precedent what was, but binding ourselves to principle what is the truth, |
00:23:47 | the whole truth. And only that which is true. Ernest Holmes says, "The present moment can never |
00:23:54 | provide us with more joy than we are able to embody. How much joy are you able to embody right now? |
00:24:04 | How much joy are you willing to embody right now? Breathe. Because if there is something else, |
00:24:13 | if I have a cup and my cup is filled with water up to here, then how much tea is it going to be able |
00:24:21 | to embody? Well only that much. And truthfully when I pour tea into it because this much is water, |
00:24:28 | now the tea is diluted, it's weaker than it would have been. It's not going to be the taste that I |
00:24:35 | desire. But when I am willing to be the full container of joy, love, laughter, then the taste, the smell, |
00:24:49 | the joy of being present must exist in overflow. Because there is no more lack or scarcity than |
00:24:59 | it's there to overflow to such a degree that I drink from my saucer because my cup run it over. |
00:25:06 | Now in order to do that, however, we must take in the words of William Faulkner who said, |
00:25:12 | you cannot swim for a new horizon until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore. |
00:25:20 | The shore precedent, the shore, old traumas, the shore, the mass way of thinking, |
00:25:29 | lack scarcity, separation, war and rumors of war, unless we are willing to release the shore, |
00:25:37 | rugged individualism and swim for new horizons. Unity, love, oneness, harmony, peace, |
00:25:47 | God, unless we are willing to lose sight of this, release this, surrender this in order to move into |
00:25:56 | that to embody that, then we will forever stay stuck in the idea of, "We will forever |
00:26:06 | twiddle our spiritual thumbs wishing and hoping rather than moving." Keep in mind that play is a verb, |
00:26:16 | it means to act, to engage in, to do, treat and move our feet. So what happens if we play, |
00:26:30 | like so I say a prayer, but what if I am playing the prayer to the degree that Dizzy Gillespie |
00:26:38 | or Stevie Wonder or It's Aqperleman play their instrument? What if I play my prayer, I play |
00:26:49 | my meditation, I play my relationships with that same level of stewardship and mastery. What happens? |
00:27:00 | What am I afforded the ability to show up as when I step into that new, expansive way of being? |
00:27:08 | Ernest Holmes says, "The person who is always glad will surround themselves with people who are happy |
00:27:17 | and life will be a continual enjoyment. The person who is always glad, glad, the etymology of |
00:27:24 | glad means to be bright. The person who is always bright, who is always shining, who is always |
00:27:30 | gleaming, who is always joyous and pleasant and gracious." That's the etymology and gracious means |
00:27:38 | to be filled with God's grace, to be courteous, to be pleasing, to be kind and to be friendly. |
00:27:45 | The person who is always friendly, the person who is always filled with God's grace, the person who is |
00:27:52 | always pleasant and joyous, joyful. That person will surround themselves with like-minded people who are |
00:28:03 | willing to play and be happy and life will be a constant continual enjoyment. Are we willing to do that? |
00:28:15 | Are we willing to step into that energy of consciousness? Are we willing to commit to that level of |
00:28:23 | child? Charles Schaeffer says, "We are never more fully alive, more completely ourselves or more deeply |
00:28:30 | engrossed in anything than when we are playing." It's about commitment. It's about being convicted to. |
00:28:40 | This is why Schaeffer says, "Keep in mind, he says in as you like it. |
00:28:47 | All the world is a stage and all the people are merely players. We are players given the opportunity |
00:28:57 | to engage in joy, to engage in laughter, to engage in play, to lighten the load." |
00:29:10 | So speaking of lightening the load and being engrossed in laughter, when Dr. Bob spoke on, |
00:29:19 | if I'm not mistaken, March 13th, in his message, he tells the story about the bus accident. |
00:29:25 | Remember when the bus settled and he looked back and amid all of the arms and people reaching |
00:29:35 | and stuff, there was relative silence, there were occasional groans of over all it was silence. |
00:29:41 | And then out of this silence, you hear someone in the back say, "Hey, what's black and |
00:29:46 | orange, black and orange, black and orange?" A school bus rolling down the hill. And he says, |
00:29:51 | "Not sure who started it. Maybe the person beside the one who said that started giggling." |
00:29:57 | And then like a contagion, the entire bus was filled with laughter. |
00:30:04 | Laughter. Gene Houston says that the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope |
00:30:12 | of new possibilities. When they laugh, this kaleidoscope of new possibilities emerged. It gave them |
00:30:22 | the ability to heal, to breathe, to relax, to come together in unity and oneness, to be of one |
00:30:30 | accord, to be in the symphonic orchestra of oneness. We are in this together. Oneness, we are healing |
00:30:40 | together oneness, togetherness, unity simply by saying, "Ha, ha, ha, ha, h-a. Holy awareness, |
00:30:55 | ha, ha. My holy awareness as I yield into the ha, ha, ha, the laughter of healing. My holy awareness |
00:31:05 | gives me healing awareness. And my healing awareness gives me healing action as I |
00:31:12 | treat and move my feet, as I move into this activity of God, living, moving and having its being, |
00:31:22 | this in, through and as me." This is why the author of One of the Pooh says, "We didn't realize |
00:31:29 | we were making memories. We just knew we were having fun. Today, are you willing to commit to |
00:31:39 | laughter? Commit to fun. Commit to playing. Commit to connecting with the divine presence that is |
00:31:47 | incarnating itself in, through and as you and everything and everyone. Breathe. Today, are you willing |
00:31:58 | to make a play date with God? A play date with God and allow yourself to not only enjoy |
00:32:06 | en, J-O-Y, but to be en, I-N, joy, to be engrossed, enjoy, to be the incarnation of joy, to let joy |
00:32:20 | overflow so that you're mentally quivin' your thoughts, joy, your words, joy, all of your |
00:32:27 | communication, however it is, by phone, text or email, joy. Your emotions, your feeling, joy, |
00:32:36 | and your actions to be joy. Joyful, joyful, I adore life. It unfolds and incarnates as me. |
00:32:49 | Am I willing to? Are you willing to be so committed to the vision, mission, and purpose of joy itself? |
00:32:58 | Playing. Being engaged in play, playfulness, and recognizing that when we come together to play |
00:33:08 | this Sunday service, we are gathered together in the name of play, in the name of love, in the name |
00:33:16 | of unity, and oneness. And when we come together in the name of, where two or more are gathered |
00:33:23 | in the name of the nature of, then that which it is must be in the midst of it. Are we willing to come |
00:33:32 | together as CSL, as new thought, as CSL Midtown, as Atlanta? Are we willing to come together |
00:33:40 | in the name and the nature of play to lift, love, and live in through and as joy itself. Breathe, |
00:33:58 | breathe, and let us recognize in this moment right here and right now the love, the light, |
00:34:06 | the life of spirit is present in through and as us. Right here, right now, there is nothing else. |
00:34:19 | Only God, a circle of joy, circumference, nowhere, the center, joy, being all there is, right where you |
00:34:29 | are, joy is, right where you are, the very playfulness of the universe is, and all is well. |
00:34:39 | Breathe. Now go out and play. Much love and appreciation. See you soon. Take care. |
00:34:53 | Everybody, thank you Reverend Rama Anderson. That was an amazing talk. Play. Have fun. Enjoy. |
00:35:01 | And that's what we do. Hopefully in our lives and as our creative expression, which brings us |
00:35:07 | income, which flows and lets us play and be here. So if you will with me, say our affirmation of |
00:35:15 | prosperity, which we'll be on the screen a second. So I live in a universe of abundance. |
00:35:22 | As I freely and joyfully give, I joined into the mind flow and all that I share with life |
00:35:28 | returns to me multiplied abundantly. And so it is. And you can donate at www.cselmidtown.org/donate or |
