How To Receive While Giving…

Leave a comment

To meet everything and everyone through stillness instead of mental noise is the greatest gift you can offer to the universe.  – Eckhart Tolle

stillness

When our minds are still we can meet people as they are not as we perceive them. When our minds are at rest we can see things in their full glory instead of through our ideas of them.

discovery

When we do that we’re primed to discover people and things in ways not previously possible. The world and its inhabitants will now be brand new to us. We’ll be freed from the chains of the past that bind us and be able to tackle life in its nascent freshness. We’ll experience a new level of peace and joy!

How To Be Great…

He who would be greatest among you, let him become server of all.  – Jesus, The Urantia Papers

the big picture

Forget what society tells us, forget what we’ve been raised to believe, instead listen to what Spirit urges us to do…

Spiritual realities underscore our total existence. Our existence is like the visible spectrum of light. It’s such a tiny portion of the total light spectrum, which is like the Spirit world. Amazing things and much greater pursuits are in store for us once we’re done with this short but intense life experience on our planet.

service

Deep inside us but also in the periphery of our thoughts sits the Spirit. It’s constantly looking to impress upon us greater realities. It tries and sometimes succeeds. When we experience ‘peace beyond all understanding’ then we’re following the leading of the Spirit. Spirit always leads us towards service and love for one and all!

How To Feel Peace At Will…

Leave a comment

When you say “yes” to the “isness” of life, when you accept this moment as it is, you can feel a sense of spaciousness within you that is deeply peaceful.  – Eckhart Tolle

this moment

This moment is, it just is. Accept it. Breathe deeply and let go. Now, feel that acceptance settling in…

When we do that, we begin to feel the calmness and peace that pervades all that is. And this despite the movement of life and time itself.

nowness

When we accept this moment and reside fully therein, we’re ready to accept all that Life brings to us. It doesn’t mean we appreciate everything that’s happening to us. It just means that we accept it, can feel the ‘nowness’ and can act from this settled frame of mind. And then we do the same thing in the next moment, and the next…

How To Be Vulnerable…

Let ourselves be seen.

Love with our whole hearts.

Practice gratitude, lean into joy.

I am enough. – Brene Brown

brene brown

A Facebook friend shared this amazing TED video with me. Brene a social researcher discovered that to live deeply we must become more vulnerable. Watch the video and share your thoughts!

discover you

By becoming open and vulnerable, we become more real to self and to others. We expose our humanity. This allows us to love more deeply. When we love in that fashion we experience a joy that’s uncommon and we become naturally thankful for all that we are and have. Then it’s clear that we are loved and enough just the way we are…

How To Be More Peaceful…

Trust creates peace.  – ‘Yogi Tea’ Fortune

what’s missing?

Something is definitely missing in our lives. What is it? We search for it incessantly and we don’t quite find it. We look for it in relationships, in cars and gadgets, at work and in our hobbies but that ‘something’ stays mostly elusive! What is it? What is it that’ll help us be at peace and fulfilled?

trust!

An ultimate answer will never be forthcoming! Why? Because life, God’s creation, is endless and eternal, just like God. We can continually progress as we move along; we’re never ‘there’ though. But there is something we can attain while on the journey. And that’s peace. How can we start feeling this peace? Via trust and faith. We must trust, that as children of the ‘most high’ we are safe, all is well and that all will be well. Such peace is accentuated via stillness.

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM trusting that all is well!
