There is no end to you; there is no end to me; because there is no end to Him. - a teacher
our origin
God thought us up. We take from his consciousness, his creativity and his dreams! That’s the way we’re made in God’s image. We are truly children of God, and brothers/sisters to each other.
never ending story, it is
We’re meant to last forever. Rejoice, we’re watched and ultimately safe, abandon all worry and fear, rest easy. Life is good…
Daily Affirmation: Today and forever I AM!

My God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me, I cannot know for certain where it will end … but I will not fear, for you are ever with me. - Thomas Merton
the road ahead
How often do we fret about what can go wrong? How often do we fear the future? Let’s become aware of when we do this. Awareness casts the limelight on this tendency, it allows us to reflect on the eternal now and on our constant companion.
our constant companion
Truly, God is with us, at all times and in innumerable ways. When we accept this Universe fact in faith, it becomes real, it becomes more palpable. The fear flees, we’re at peace. We know it when we experience it. The experience is not forthcoming if we don’t invite it.

Words do not become true because you affirm them… You affirm them because they are true. You are synchronizing your consciousness with the reality of Truth. - Eric Butterworth
words become…
A concept originates in our minds, we give it expression through words and eventually as actions or deeds. The way to supercharge this cycle of events is to start with ‘True’ concepts. Here’s an example, ‘I’m a child of God’. Accepting it as Truth, affirming it and then trying to live it makes it real in our lives…
discovering truth
Accepting and affirming reality strengthens our own hold on that reality. In other words we discover truth by accepting a concept or a hypothesis as fact, first. We do so by faith and as we do that, if it is indeed true, it shows up in our lives. This is contrary to what we’ve been taught. Try it to know its power!

Always in motion is the future – Master Yoda
formulas
We all seek formulas in life. Examples of formulas may be:
- Routines that we build into our daily lives
- Special prayers that are repeated to effect changes
- Superstitions that are employed
- Special spiritual or life approaches that appear to work
Formulas do work sometime; especially for the short term and for machine oriented situations. We are not machines though.
in motion
Life, and the future, is ever in motion. Formulas bind and restrict. How can we stay flexible? How can we dynamically adapt to life? How can we move with the waves of life, ever towards greater fulfillment and happiness?
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM flexible in thought, word and action!

2.53 When thy mind, that may be wavering in the contradictions of many scriptures, shall rest unshaken in divine contemplation, then the goal of Yoga is thine.
2.54 How is the man of tranquil wisdom, who abides in divine contemplation? What are his words? What is his silence? What is his work? - The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 2)
divine contemplation
Krishna, God, has something very important to say to religionists in this verse. He understands that all scriptures are imperfect and such imperfection confuses all thinking believers. Here he suggests that we not rely solely on written guidance. That we become our own gurus.
how?
Hearing this Arjuna wants to know what it takes to reach such a contemplative state. Stay tuned for the answer. This series continues each Monday.
