Jay’s decision to do strength training serves as an analogy about how to acquire spiritual strength. Sprinkled with a lively sense of humor, his talk shares the discovery of how to develop "superhero" powers for graceful living.
Jay begins his talk by recalling a friend and personal trainer saying strength training is the best thing for physical health. The advice motivated Jay to return to the gym. Onstage, he humorously demonstrates the result of acquiring new muscles.
Jay transitions from the physical to the spiritual by emphasizing the importance of spiritual training. He calls it the foundation upon which all other areas of his life are built.
His go-to practice for building spiritual muscles is to do the spiritual exercises taught in Eckankar and sing "HU," an ancient name for God. He calls HU a “diamond polisher” and says, “It slowly and gently polishes away my outer layers to reveal my true nature. Glimpses of that true nature have shown me that I am love, joy, and freedom.”
Even though he sings "HU" regularly to forge a deeper connection with Divine Spirit, Jay admits he continues to be a worrier. “I worry about my finances, my health, my business, relationships, spirituality."
However, singing "HU" and doing spiritual exercises eventually helped reduce Jay's worrying.
He credits the HU with giving him strength to accept anything that life throws at him. He realizes every experience benefits him spiritually. Now Jay lives with less worry and fear. And he’s on his way to becoming a warrior in his life, not a worrier.

Beautiful experience. We are meant to be warriors in ECK and not worrier. May The Blessings Be!
Very useful topic for me right now. I like to say I’m a warrior- and sometimes I am; but somehow, I still find myself embracing the worrier mentality. I’m aware of it, and try to change it, but get stuck. It’s like I almost gotta wait until it decides to let me go. Hopefully will learn something in this video. Just about to watch it now
Go Jay! Dad was a Sixth, one day he said in passing, "You know, I worried about everything. would the kids be OK, could I pay that bill, didn't change anything but my blood pressure."
Thank you so much for this. It is what I really needed to hear today.
That's a beautiful story. The Eck knows what's right for us every step of the way...
Thank you Jay, worries don't change much but trust in the Master makes us warriors
When on the path of Eckankar, we learn to find the silver lining in each cloud. Inspite of our expectations we are brought the right experiences for our spiritual growth.
Beautiful and timely!
Beautiful!, indeed everything is in its rightful place
That a great presentation.
Through singing the HU we learn that no matter whatever happens in life, it for our own good. Thanks Wahz for all the ECKISTS all over the world, sharing their experiences to uplift us.
Love, Joy, and Freedom. Love it. Very Inspiring. Thank you.
Yes, I sing the HU, the most beautiful prayer, that sound that made me who I truly am. I am very grateful to know my true nature.
Thanks so much for this beautiful and inspiring story. Ready to step up with my spiritual exercises of ECK. May The Blessings Be!
The Eck have a reason for it
Thanks for this encouraging words of inspiration
Hu is the sweetest Melody
Get out of your own way, the most difficult part of life, and spirit will not let you see why, at least not untill the end, trust and faith is required. And of course the spiritual exercises.
Thank you Jay very inspiring.
Thanks
