It’s The Journey!!

Leave a comment

You cannot have a happy ending to an unhappy journey.  – Abraham

future?

When we’re unhappy in the current moment we’re really saying that we hope to be more pleased in the future. Does that future state ever arrive? If we’re dissatisfied now, what’ll guarantee a happier state later?

now!

It’s either ‘now’ or never! We can choose to be fulfilled ‘now’. We may realize that ‘now’ is all we have. We can understand that time is still when we fully occupy the present moment. It can all begin afresh ‘now’. We can re-assess everything starting ‘now’. We may re-imagine our lives, our place on this planet, the planet itself and our eternity, ‘now’!! How are we choosing to spend ‘now’?

Namaste ‘now’….

What Is Self-Knowledge?

Leave a comment

Self-knowledge is the discovery from moment to moment of the ways of the self, its intentions and pursuit, its thoughts and appetites.  – Krishnamurti

why?

Why should we care about self-knowledge? As we become conscious of self we realize that something’s going on! Life is going on, and we are an integral part of it. We start to understand our place and our level of participation in Life. Next, questions spring from within and they are pointers to a deeper understanding of why everything is the way it is…

within

This journey of ‘self-knowledge’ must begin within. As we think and become aware of what we think, our understanding of self increases. That is the beginning, becoming increasingly aware of the origin of our thinking and its motives…

How To Be An Artist!

Leave a comment

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  – The Holy Bible (NIV)

artist?

Are you an artist? Are we all artists? Most will say no. Why? Because our understanding of art might be limited. Or we might not think we’re good enough or skilled enough? What do you think?

yes!

Only we can express our personal experience and perception. The way we express it is unique to us. When our expression is beautiful and thought-provoking then we are creators of art! It’s that simple. Which is why we shouldn’t “conform to the pattern of this world”! We must be us. We must express our selves and ideally do so in consort with divine forces. That is certainly one reason why we are alive on this planet! Rejoice!!

How To Attract Anyone…

If you love people, they will draw near you — you will have no difficulty in winning them.  – On Taoism, The Urantia Papers…

love?

It’s so hard to just love another. When we attempt to do so the mutual personal history intervenes. Our conditioned response takes over and we lose the lovely opportunity to see folks for what they are…

beautiful!

Everyone including us is beautiful and lovable. What does it take to recognize this beauty within us and others? When can we stop judging them and us? When will we realize that Love is the most important preoccupation? Love is what’s needed most by any person and any situation…

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love. – Mother Teresa

  • How can we be happy? (by loving)
  • How can we improve relationships? (via love)

love daily

Why Be Us?

Leave a comment

Our only obligation is to be the love we are and allow our answers to come from within in the way that’s most appropriate for us.  – Anita Moorjani

dying to be me!

Anita Moorjani wrote this amazing story about her journey through stage 4b cancer, how she nearly died, then came back to recover fully and with a story that’s hard to believe. During this journey beyond time and space it became clear to her that life goes on, that we see or experience only a minute fraction of what’s there or possible and that fear can create havoc in our lives!

the opposite of fear

Anita is convinced that fear was the primary reason ravaging cancer took over her physical body. It took a near-death experience for her to realize some of the following truths:

  • We are ‘magnificent’ eternal beings born of and from love
  • When we express our essential nature (love) we truly live
  • It’s incumbent upon us to express our unique selves for the benefit of the entire universe

Where’s The True North?

Leave a comment

A man with one watch knows what time it is; a man with two watches is never quite sure. – Lee Segall

the north?

How do we decide what’s right or wrong? On what basis do we make daily decisions? What makes us choose one fork on the road over another? What guides some of our momentous life decisions? How can we be more decisive? How can we think more clearly?

the north

We must discover a way, a mechanism, a philosophy or a means to help us think better. Guidelines might come from our ‘religion’, our society and family. Prayer, stillness and journaling are excellent ways to gain a deeper knowledge of self. Truly understanding what drives us, i.e. our values, is yet another way. It’s crucial that we understand what’s most important to us and why…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM aligned with my true north!
