The Easiest Way To Peace…

It’s never about them… – Namaste Now!

them

It’s super easy to blame others and external circumstances. ‘He shouldn’t have said that.’, ‘Why did she do that?’, ‘Life isn’t fair.’, ‘Why do CEOs make so much money?’ and so on. We are masters at the blame game.

us

Life is perceived and created all within our own minds. Even if someone or something is to blame, how we think about these things and what they mean to us is what truly matters. If we can understand that it’s always about how we think about life, then we can handle anything Life throws into our laps…

Why Self-Knowledge Is Key…

March 18, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Who but you knows your inner state, so who but you can change it? – Vernon Howard

what we are

Only we can be our own masters. To be so, we must know self. Knowing self means we understand our proclivities, our insecurities and fears, our longings, our self-deception plus more! It’s a journey that must be undertaken…

awareness

Life calls us to be our own masters by throwing challenges at us. Each life situation has multiple lessons built into it. We’re on this planet to grow as children of God. Life isn’t conspiring against us; it’s providing a perfect school for our growth so that we can be masters of self!

What’s The TGIF Syndrome?

March 11, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Why wait for the weekend to have fun? – Loesje

the tgif syndrome!

We all suffer from it. We wait for the weekend to enjoy our lives. It’s much like the next think we want to buy or the next relationship we think will make us happy. We wait for the weekend and often dread going back to ‘work’! What is it about work that makes it so drab? Or is it us?

today

About half of our waking hours during any week are at work. Which means half of our lives is spent on our jobs. If our job isn’t fun, then we’re wasting half of our life! There has to be a way to find the perfect job (hard not impossible) or figure out a way to enjoy and enhance our current livelihood! How can we remedy this appalling situation? When will we begin?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM enjoying my job!

Recommendation: The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle

What’s The Best Advice?

March 7, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Be truthful, gentle and fearless. – Mahatma Gandhi

life

Life has a way of fulfilling all our needs. When we trust it, it delivers. From something apparently minor like the quote for today’s blog to something ‘big’ like a relationship, Life delivers it all! It will deliver it if we’re patient and don’t rely excessively on self to figure it all out!

truth

Life gushes through us when we embody Truth. Truth is the doorway to an effortless collaboration with divinity on a daily basis. To live truth we must be fearless. Who can harm us? We’re the children of the ‘Most Highs’. We have nothing or no one to fear! Gentleness enables us to listen. When we listen for the truth we can be fearless…

What’s The Path?

March 4, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Don’t you see that the roads to Mecca are all different? – Rumi

it’s spiritual

Life isn’t all that it appears to be. It’s not about being ‘successful’ as society defines it. Life has a spiritual underpinning. If we don’t consider the spiritual, we miss the big reason why the Universe and we exist.

the path

The stairway to heaven is different for everyone. If God wanted everyone to be perfect he would have made us so. If he wanted us to have all the answers we would have already had them. If God wanted us to follow a single path to increasing awareness and joy then it would be emblazoned across the sky. Blasphemous to many but just like we’re truly unique individuals, we must follow very different paths to Reality…

Why We Must Go Crazy…

February 25, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men. – Roald Dahl

nonsense!

Let’s stop being uptight. Let’s loosen up! Let’s go a bit crazy, just like kids do, at least once in a while! Life is meant to have fun! Let’s do it!!

creativity

By going crazy we expand our horizons, we see things from a different perspective and we loosen things up a bit! We can more easily tap into our own wellspring of creativity. We’ll also release some stress. What’s stopping us??

Why Time Is Priceless…

February 24, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

An inch of time is an inch of gold but you can’t buy that inch of time with an inch of gold. – Chinese Proverb

time

Each breath that we breathe uses time. Time is as precious as our breath. It allows us to be all that we can be. It enables self-expression in a billion different ways. It’s the palette that God uses to paint this ever unfolding and infinitely multifarious painting. Time can be deeply experienced in the eternal now.

value it

We must value this amazing resource. We don’t always have to fill it with stuff to do. Sometimes we can just sit and be. Time then becomes a means to approach reality. Let’s experience this mystery, in our own way, and make most of it!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM mindful of time!
