New Dimensions Radio for February 18, 2008
9:30 PM - 10:30 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "Intention to Shine"
What is your deepest intent? What are you really trying to accomplish as you go through your day, and as you interact with family members or coworkers? Are you in touch with the real reasons you make the choices you make, or are you sometimes embroiled in resentment, or other games of the ego? Do you use the warmth in your heart to heat your home or to burn it down? Deborah Johnson reminds us that when we forget our true sense of purpose, and let our busy minds separate us from our connection to the divine, our actions may be infused with negativity rather than wonder and grace. She explains, "Intent is really an internal process, a place of integration where our thoughts, words, actions, deeds, and emotions actually all line up. As human beings we have an incredible capacity to feel one way, say something else, do something else, and still be thinking something else. But intent is bringing it all together. That is where the power comes." Reverend Johnson offers techniques to create an ongoing intention to move through our days in communion with the divine, so that we can bring peace to our personal relationships, and also to the greater global community. (Hosted by Justine Willis Toms)
Since 1973, New Dimensions has been exploring the landscape of possibilities of a more just, sustainable and compassionate world by having deep dialogues with individuals who are actively making a creative contribution in the world.
New Dimensions has interviewed hundreds of the greatest minds on the planet such as the late mythologist Joseph Campbell, poet Maya Angelou and physicist David Bohm. It has featured Pulitzer prize winners E.O. Wilson from Harvard and poet/ecologist Gary Snyder.
Primarily the medium used to communicate these ideas is radio. New Dimensions national series is heard, for the most part, on National Public Radio affiliates and other public stations. This flagship series airs weekly on over 350 stations around the U.S. and another 300 stations in Australia on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. It can also be heard 24/7 here on the New Dimensions website.
