Why We Must Let Go…

People are so used to having their own way, they get distressed when something higher than themselves tries to have its way with them. And that, by the way, is what Truth, Reality is always trying to do, which is to dislodge you from your own life so that it can give you what it has prepared for you.Vernon Howard

listen

Everything that happens to us is a message, the good the bad and the ugly. We ought to heed and pay attention, because when we don’t the prodding from ‘Truth’ and ‘Reality’ continues…

There’s a certain purpose afoot to all that goes on. When we pay attention and go ‘with the flow’ life becomes an adventure, more fun and certainly more meaningful.

let go

We must let go and relax. As we do that literally and figuratively, we can attune to the march of the Universe. We come closer to Nature. The Universal Life current itself starts to guide us, and as a result we’re happy campers! We can then explore what Life really has in store for us, which isn’t quite possible if we aren’t open to it.

Why Thoughts Matter

There are no idle thoughts.A Course In Miracles

thoughts separate

When we’re lost in our thoughts two things are going on. One is that we’re not aware of our connection to source and therefore unable to access our higher mind. The second is that we’re creating our future without being conscious of that fact.

thoughts create

By practicing stillness and by purposefully building a habit to stay in the moment we pave the way for greater creativity and clarity in life. Creativity is not just about creating art but , more importantly, it’s about making our life itself a work of art. Because ‘there are no idle thoughts’ let’s be more intentional on how we think. Let’s partner with the ‘higher mind’, while staying more in the moment, and design the life that we deserve.

Why God is God…

7.6 All things have their life in this Life, and I am their beginning and end.

7.7 In this whole vast universe there is nothing higher than I. All the worlds have their rest in me, as many pearls upon a string.

7.8 I am the taste of living waters and the light of the sun and the moon. I am OM, the sacred word of the Vedas, sound in silence, heroism in men.The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 7)

origin

We live in time and space. Time appears to move in one direction, forward and space appears to be expanding at all times. That’s highly suggestive of all things having originated at a time far distant in the past. Origins beg a cause. That ‘first cause’ can be termed God. According to The Gita, all Western Religions and many other belief systems, God is the ultimate person. He knows and he sees, just like we can. He created it, and us all, for a grand purpose…we can relate with her directly and one-on-one!

the highest

The highest ideals and the highest qualities are reflective of the creator. All creation marches towards perfection by accentuating and experiencing these ideals and qualities. That then is also a purpose of it all. God is alive and well, rejoice, fear not and ‘be exceedingly glad’.

Never Give Up!!

Never, never, never, never ever give up!Winston Churchill

life purpose

Our purpose is to grow and grow we can’t without change; change is scary; the way to handle change is to decide to handle all that life throws at us with the best attitude possible, because then nothing’s truly impossible and we can never really fail…………..

When There’s Nothing Else to Know…

7.1 Hear now, Arjuna, how thou shalt have the full vision of me, if thy heart is set on me and if, striving for Yoga, I am thy refuge supreme.

7.2 And I will speak to thee of that wisdom and vision which, when known, there is nothing else for thee to know.The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 7)

for the asking

The goal of the ages is obtainable just for the asking. This book reveals that when the pupil is ready the teacher appears; when we ask we’re given. That’s especially true if we seek the ‘kingdom of God’ within because then everything else that’s spiritually necessary to achieve this ultimate goal is added onto our lives.

the greatest knowledge

The greatest knowledge is that which:

  • Allows us to live happy and fulfilling lives today
  • Helps us understand reality and our place in it
  • Clarifies for us where we’re headed

According to this ‘bible’ of the Hindus, when we seek ‘Yoga’ (union) with ultimate reality (God) then we start a chain of events that ultimately leads us to the very doorstep of All That Is.

That Which We Must Conquer…

It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.Sir Edmund Hillary

never the external

All that we dislike, all that irritates us, all that we desire and want has an origin in our inner life. It’s how we interpret life and circumstances that determines how we do and how we feel about self and others. So the quest for peace, for happiness, towards fulfillment and self-realization must begin and end within.

inner life

Our inner life is therefore paramount. Nothing more and nothing else. What does that mean? It’s all about…

  • How we view self and others
  • What irritates and pleases us
  • What’s important to us, our life purpose
  • How we can stay happy and selfless

How’s our inner-life?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM aware of self.

Why There’s Nothing to Fear…

The presence of fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your own strength.A Course In Miracles

why we fear

Beyond biological fear that’s handed down generationally, there’s the everyday fear that we often live with. Where does it come from? There are many shallow and peripheral reasons why we feel fear. These can be fear of losing health, wealth, family and the like. If examined at deeper levels the reason is exactly what the amazing quote above highlights. We fear life and its circumstances because we fall for the illusion that it’s all up to us!!

freedom from fear

All we see and all we experience is within the über paradigm we may call God. We literally move and have our being in God. Nothing goes unnoticed in the universe. If we believe that we’re fully responsible for us, we’ll always be disappointed because we cannot ensure our ultimate well-being. We’re simply not capable enough. We can instead rely on God as an essential anchor through-out our day and our lives. Doing so is the pre-requisite to a happy, peaceful, fulfilling and fearless life! Try it.
