To be truly free in the world requires a mind void of limits and restrictions, with hope, imagination and possibilities. To have such magical focus we need to clean out the resentments, jealousies, annoyances ,and judgements that form the illusary boundaries that compromise the range, depth, and scope of dreams. Acceptance, love and gratitude leaves little space limiting thoughts. Start there!
Always trust intuition and feelings. It is best to go with the drive from within even if we don’t know why. There is no shortage of external conditions vying for our attention and energy, but it is important to really examine how we feel and how the conditions align with our personal highest good. It may seem that things may be beneficial for the greater good while possibly being uncomfortable, but nothing is important than feeling good. Contrary to what we have have been told; Life IS all about you!
In this modern world of extreme communication, TV news, radio, podcasts,blogs, social media posts, reels, videos as well as the old fashion magazine and newspaper, we are ensconced in an onslaught of information. In almost all cases what we are absorbing is opinion and not fact. Those with more $$ can make their opinion shine brighter and appear more factual. As more and more buy in to lies, authenticity and independent identity becomes compromised as we increasingly and inadvertently find ourselves doing the bidding of the agenda of others. It is more important than ever to safeguard the integrity of our minds by refusing to JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON without taking great pain to verify where we are putting our focus. Our primary belief will become our reality. Individually and collectively. THE BANDWAGON will strangle you dreams if you let it. THEY ARE CONTROLLING MANY OF US. To live your best life, follow your own mind.
Just being alive in the world means we impact others, everything and everyone. It is unavoidable. We may think we are not having any consequential effect on the world but we absolutely do. Being mostly ignorant of this fact we allow damaging attitudes and feelings to send their vibration out to grow exponentially into infinity. Then we wonder why there is so much disharmony in the world. We are all responsible for planting seeds, starting narratives, perpetuating existing collective angst and pain with impunity, mostly unaware and certainly without intention but just as troubling as if it was with purpose. Healing our life is a collaborative effort that we are all responsible for. Realize. Each morning realize that not only your experience but the fate of humanity STARTS WITH ME. Change your thoughts, change your life. Change your thoughts change the world.
The milestones in life, the big sale, new house, huge weight loss, wedding, new job are all fantastic experiences to look forward to and bask in after the fact. The only problem is that we have way too few in our lives; a dozen at best. The good news is that magnificence is all around us, all the time. All we need to do is notice. Be mindful of the splendor that lies within every waking moment. It could be as benign as a colony of ants working in unison or your spouse pouring your coffee. The blazing sun in the morning or the majesty of a huge mountain range off in the distance adding beauty to a montane morning commute. Embrace how marvelous life is with the unlimited beauty to behold. ALL DESIGNED FOR YOU!
The Genesis of all we experience was known to us before it manifest in real time. It may not have been a conscious intention, but we certainly somehow somewhere deep in the recesses of our mind, focused upon with emotion, either intensely all at once a small amount of it over time , but the experience and encounters of our lives where designed in our minds. We are the author of the play that we are participating in.
If we only knew who/what we actually are! Sages, gurus, masters and teacher/philisophers have been telling us for years. It actually explains everything we claim is a mystery. It’s even hidden in the dogma of all religions yet 99% have no clue and will call them crazy if you try to explain. I am that I am. All are One.
There are times when we put on the news, or look around our neighborhoods and cities, read the newspaper only to be shocked at how our world is unfolding. We wonder how it got like this. It certainly is not aligned with MY highest good! Somewhere in our minds, they exist the possibility for people to have absurd opinions. We also Harbor the belief that these same people have influence over how we are to live our lives. Knowing full well, this is not something we desire, what purpose is served by us having Such thoughts? Because without these thoughts, we would not be able to have the experiences any encounters that we are so upset about Perhaps we unknowingly entertain these thoughts to challenge us us, give us opportunity to grow, use all creativity to improve the world, and have purpose. But one thing is sure, my life, your life, our lives would not be as they are if we could not imagine it so.
Think better thoughts. Ignore what they say in media. Only entertain your own opinion and perspective. Encourage others to do the same. Read right and speak only positive encouraging words. Refused to absorb and fuel the nonsense that becomes the catalyst of the creation of uncomfortable experiences.
You have control. You’re writing the story. This is your story. You just wrote into your story that I just wrote these lines. Thank you !
Politics, economy, global wars, racism, Big, business, big Pharma, the weather, traffic, a school kid, bullying your child, low wages and unrealistic work expectations, a rude retail employee, a slow waitress, ignorant people in the spotlight, mechanical items, breaking down, clothes, not fitting properly any longer, and too many other things for me to list here, all tend to mess with our heads and leave us feeling less than joyful. Or do they? All of these situations are outside of our head and we are perceiving them in a particular way. We view them as a threat to our well-being, spend time lamenting over it, focusing on it, until it impacts our nervous system. There are, however, millions of other people that navigate through life in and around all of these same situations and either never noticed them or do not give them a second thought. So how can it be the condition that is causal? It is not! It’s a thought about them . Change your thoughts change your life!
All life, (seemingly separate lives), are THE ONE SINGULAR DIVINE AWARENESS expressing itself in a multitude of ways through diverse individuated combinations of perspectives unfolding according to the varying thought patterns creating unique experiences. This is YOU. This is ME. This is all those I love. This is all those I hate. The wealthy and impoverished. The healthy and infirmed. The Strong and the Weak. The brilliant and the ignorant. The loving and the hateful. The givers and the takers. The enlightened and those living in the dark.
There is only ONE.
BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD!
Question: Will the knowing of this (should you come to accept it as your truth) cause you to change how you think about life ?
