How To Reach Personal Bliss!

If you want to reach a state of bliss, then … make a decision to relinquish the need to control, the need to be approved, and the need to judge.  – Deepak Chopra

up to us

Our happiness, fulfillment and destiny are truly in our own hands. If there’s one essential lesson we must learn during this lifetime, it is this. We must look within for all answers and resolutions… we may blame others at the peril of our own well-being.

equanimity

If we watch our thoughts we’ll notice our constant need to control others, get approval for what we do and how we look and a penchant to decide who or what is good and bad. Equanimity of thought is key to equanimity of mind!

Our Mission…

Your job, your invitation from the Universe, is to give people back to themselves…  – Neale Donald Walsch

running away

Most people are running away from themselves. We do that by distracting ourselves, constantly. We watch TV, browse the Internet and are afraid to just be.

our mission

Our mission, if we choose to accept it, is two fold.
1) Find our own self. Connect to our own center. Feel less afraid. Have more faith and confidence. Love more.
2) Assist others to do the same. Peer into their eyes, really listen to them, give tight hugs and pray for them.

Imagine the state of the world if even 1% of us did this everyday!

How To Be Mature!

The mature human being soon begins to look upon all other mortals with feelings of tenderness and with emotions of tolerance.  – The Urantia Papers

goal

To want to be a mature person is a goal for most of us. But what does it mean be mature Smile?

maturity

Maturity comes from truly understanding others and acting on that understanding. We are all God’s children and growing in innumerable ways. We also have a myriad points of view. Surely that’s part of God’s design? Understanding others and being open to why others act the way they do will allow us to be gentle and kind with them…

Four Words That Can Transform Our Lives!

True goodness is like water in that it blesses everything and harms nothing. And like water, true goodness seeks the lowest places, even those levels which others avoid…  – Read The Urantia Papers

how can I help?

The other day a friend shared this amazing article: ‘Three Words That Will Transform Your Career’. The concept is very simple and a Universal Truth. We become successful in our lives to the degree that we’re useful to others.

true goodness

We can be supremely happy when we’re truly good. ‘True goodness’ comes from becoming cognizant of God’s wishes for his creation. That’s only possible when we’re like water itself. Purifying and blessing all in our path and hurting no one. Like water we shouldn’t care if we do the most menial chore for the ‘lowest’ or poorest person. Our life motivation should be to help others be happier. That’s true goodness.
