Being With John-Roger | Notes From An Unbeliever<\/strong><\/p>\n In my first exposure to J-R I was at a point in my life questioning the value of my personal and professional experi-ences. I felt like a puppet going through the motions but missing the juice. I had lost any sense of belief in marriage, writing\/directing TV, drugs and meaningless sex.<\/p>\n And so… I was an unbelieving judgmental dude when J-R spe-ci\ufb01cally said, \u201cDon\u2019t believe me, check it out.\u201d<\/p>\n Okay…he said do two hours of s.e.\u2019s every day. Whew…I had to go into training like a long distance runner…until I \ufb01nally earned the daily two hours.<\/p>\n Okay…he said be active in service. Piece of cake as what others may call service I have always created opportunities to give, to share, to teach, to direct others who were wanting.<\/p>\n During all the years, the decades, I continued to \u201ccheck it out.\u201d Working in TV, sexuating, marrying, divorcing, always being of service before and after being on MSIA sta\ufb00…I still do not believe. But I do experience the gift of Spirit.<\/p>\n I have always continued to do s.e.\u2019s, not because of shoulds but because the experience literally connects me with home.<\/p>\n I have been with J-R on the physical level many times in many countries, profound to prosaic. BUT … there\u2019s that big BUT again…I was and am with J-R every day during s.e\u2019s, long walks and just breathing in and out.<\/p>\n J-R left the planet.<\/p>\n For some that is a signi\ufb01cant loss.<\/p>\n Frankly, for me, he has never left.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Being With John-Roger | Notes From An Unbeliever In my first exposure to J-R I was at a point in my life questioning the value of my personal and professional experi-ences.
