GRATITUDE FOR ALL THINGS

At dawn I meditated on the concept: Love one another. I turned my gaze to my parents and I sang a song of gratitude and love, and I turned to my relatives and poured out beams of gratitude and love. My state became deep and a great peace descended. Then I felt that wonderful influence come over me like a divine cloak, and I saw the face of St. Francis, and I heard him speak without voice: 

Loving people is one part of the divine plan.One must include everything in nature or made by man, your house and all things in it. Although I lived in a cave I was grateful for the rock walls and for the air that came through the entrance. My heart was full of joy for every animal and bird. I was grateful for the old blanket that covered me and for the solitude that gave me the time to commune with my Lord.

Mantra:
I see God in every person

The Work

Herman described the process of putting his teachings into practice as "The work." This section contains some of his lessons that describe conceptual concepts as well as actual practices that supported that work. Love everyone -- how on earth can you do that? How do I connect with the Christ and the angelic host? Methods of healing. Dealing with the difficulties of everyday life. These issues and more are touched on here.

HERMAN REDNICK PRACTICES FOR THE PATH OF LOVE

Herman Rednick Practices. 

One central issue that many students of Herman faced was how to fulfill the fundamental Christ instruction: Love one Another.  Often a student would come to Herman for guidance on how to resolve a problem they were experiencing for a family member, parent or friend.  “Send the a beam of love” he would reply.  “But I’m doing that” most students would reply.  To which he always responded: “Love more.”  How exactly do we do that?

Herman fundamental practices described by the editors in the introductions of the Earth Journey Books.
