Comforting words for trying times

April 6, 2020December 7, 2020 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

One time someone asked a man what he thought he could win by praying to the Lord all the time. The man said, nothing, but let me tell you what I have lost: my anger, my ego, my greed, my depression, my insecurity, and my fear of death. Sometimes the response to our prayers is … Continue reading Comforting words for trying times

The hidden blessing behind Coronavirus

March 14, 2020April 8, 2020 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

Fear of deadly coronavirus covers the land. Sporting events, concerts, and most public showings have been cancelled in an effort to reduce the spread of the new virus. Terrible as this infectious disease is, perhaps its only virtue is that it forces people to become reacquainted with their own mortality and to think about God. … Continue reading The hidden blessing behind Coronavirus

I would like to recommend an Edx (Educational Exchange) course to all of you titled: "The Science of Happiness."

Tennis anyone?

February 10, 2019October 17, 2021 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

Hello again fellow explorers of the digital universe. I hope all is going well for you, although I seriously doubt it. Please don't take me wrong, I don't mean to be coy or offensive. You see, the nature of the material world is cyclical. Our lives are full of ups and downs. It's inevitable! If … Continue reading Tennis anyone?

A Visit to the Mountains

February 4, 2019February 18, 2019 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

I love the mountains! The spectacular views and the sound of its rivers remind me how wondrous our planet is. Their height makes me feel closer to God and creation. It's no wonder that John Denver was able to compose such beautiful music under their influence. May he rest in peace. Gore Creek, a tributary … Continue reading A Visit to the Mountains

A spiritual adventure in India

January 25, 2019February 18, 2019 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

In 2010 a group of friends and I traveled to India for the Maha Kumbha Mela in Haridwar, north of New Delhi. This amazing spiritual experience takes place on the edge of the Ganges river where the fast current keeps it amazingly clean. The event happens once every 12 years when Jupiter enters the sign … Continue reading A spiritual adventure in India

Excerpts from B.R.A.I.N

January 22, 2019February 18, 2019 / bkoenig / Leave a comment

From time to time I plan to publish posts featuring a few morsels of thought from my book. There is a scene where B.R.A.I.N is trying to figure out why our planet is falling apart and says: "If you give people what they want, nothing is enough, but if you give them what they need … Continue reading Excerpts from B.R.A.I.N
