THE EVER-EXPANDING UNIVERSE
In each new moment the Universe is expanding un-endingly. As a part of this Universe, and being of Its very nature, we are also expanding and as I experience,feel and know this activity of Being I sense and experience the Great Joy That It Is.
March 15, 2007
This morning I received a e-mail from a spiritual teacher providing a sampling of the "The Golden Rule" as taught by several of the the world's popular religions. And so I now give thanks for this subtle re-minder that we are, in truth, all a part of the One and not apart from It or anybody or anything else. As we come into a realization of this truth, the Golden Rule is automatically demonstrated in our experience as in Consciousness there can be no thought, thus no desire and thus no intent and consequently no action, to do any "harm" to any one or any thing; as that would be Self-Destructive, which is contrary to the Nature of Consciousness (which is constructive and creative). Within this simple truth, once realized by all, lies the Heaven on Earth that Humanity yearns for; and which any individual may discover and claim for one's self right now. And so I say thanks, thanks, thanks, for this Truth of One; This Heaven on Earth; This Joy of Unity and Harmony of Mankind; and I let go and relax into the demonstration and unfolding of these words, spoken in truth, into my every thought, word and deed; by action of The Law of The Universe upon my Divine Thought, and so it is; before, now, and forevermore, Amen.
March 14, 2007
And now I allow myself to let go of every thing and just relax silently into the quiet stillness of the depths of my being. Here I recognize a Presence which is All-Powerful and Infinitely Intelligent and Good. I open myself to the flow of this ever-present Healing Energy as It surges throughout all of me and I bathe myself in the Wholeness and Perfection of this Unconditional Love. I now declare this state of Consciousness for myself, not only in this present NOW, but in each NEW NOW which may be given for me to enjoy in this physical body, which I accept as a perfect reflection of God's highest idea of mankind, and I say thanks, thanks, thanks, as I release these words spoken in truth, upon a Law of the Universe which acts upon them immediately and manifests them as my experience of Life, not only in this present moment, but likewise in the everlasting, eternal moment of my Oneness with Spirit. And so it is, Amen.
March 13, 2007
Now I quiet my mind and open myself to Divine Guidance from The Higher Mind at the Center of my Being. As an individual expression of this Infinite Wisdom within me, I now, and in each new now, receive benefit of Its Bountiful Blessings in the forms of Perfect Health, Unconditional Love, Perfect Peace, An Abundant Free Flow of Money, Complete Success in every area of my experience of Life and fuller awareness and realization of my True Self. And for all these marvelous blessings, I say thanks, thanks, thanks and release these words, spoken in truth, until The Law of The Universe Which, in response, says "Yes, My Loved Child, and so is it done unto you according to your words". Amen and so it is.
March 12, 2007
Henry Ford said something to the effect that whether you say you can or you say that you can not, you get to be right. Some other has said that your word is Law in the Universe. Jesus the Christ of Nazareth is reported as having said that as a person believes in his heart, so is he. And the Law of Attraction says that what one focuses on, one draws to him. All of this, and more, suggest to me that I, NOW, and in each NEW NOW, choose only such thoughts, for my attention, which correspond with that which I desire, and to bid farewell to those which do not: and so I do; and I say thanks to this Power within me which says yes to these words spoken in truth, and so it is, amen.
March 11, 2007
I now move my time pieces ahead one hour to reflect the change today in Daylight Savings Time. So, now my time pieces say it is 5am instead of 4am as they did only seconds ago. So, seemingly, within only a few short seconds, I have apparently lost a whole hour of my life here. But, of course, in reality I have lost nothing, as the loss was a mere illusion created by my action. The point here is that it is I who changed the reading on my watch to reflect that this present moment seems one hour "later" than it actually it. It is I who created this illusion and there is no way that I can not know that I am responsible for it (that I created it) unless I NOW become UNCONSCIOUS and FORGET THIS TRUTH. But such a state would be of my own choice and volition and I necessarily would make it at the risk of folly. (As, having so chosen, I would also then necessarily have to deal with the circumstances and consequences of this decision. Having chosen to accept appearance as my truth, that will also, necessarily, reflect my experience of the matter (that is to say I would then have to feel that I am writing these thoughts a whole hour later in the day than I actually am- that would be the experience of reality I have chosen for myself).
Perhaps with respect to this particular matter, living such an illusion is of little significance; but consider how the significance might become "big" when I apply this concept to a different thing such as the experience of my life: here the idea takes on significance of monumental importance. For instance, if in this moment I choose to forget Who I Really Am (a part of God), I will be fooled by the this change in my state of Consciousness and I will believe in the appearance that who I am is apart from God. The profound implications of such a change in the concept of identity are obvious so I won't belabor them other than to say I would then act out of a concept of being less than I am and correspondingly my experience of everything would necessarily reflect that false impression and be less than it could be. Such an existence would be less than acceptable to me as I want all of everything which is what I already Am but I have to be Conscious to know that Truth and so it becomes of the utmost importance to me that NOW and in each NEW NOW I am Conscious less I lose my ability to discern between appearance and Reality.
And now I am so grateful for my realization of the truth of these words I hereto place into type and so I say thanks, thanks, thanks to a Power which rests at the Core of my very Being, waiting for my orders on how I desire to express Its Infinite Goodness, and Which knows only to say, "YES, YES, YES, YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND". I know and realize this Perfect Law of Cause and Effect operating in the Universe and responding to my words, here spoken in Divine Truth, and so I release said words unto this Law knowing with all my heart and soul, and with the totality of my Being that, even before I have set these words unto keyboard type, so are they demonstrating themselves in truth and correspondingly manifesting themselves in and through my every thought, belief, feeling, word and action. And so it is, Amen.
March 10, 2007
Now I bring my awareness into this present moment and, as I do, I see my mind in an attitude of presumptuous expectance of continuous never-ending new moments in which I will exist and experience That Which Is. Yes, I am now in contact with a Higher Self which knows Itself as That Part of Me Which has never changed since my earliest memories of my earliest experiences. This Self is EXACTLY NOW AS IT WAS IN MY EARLIEST MEMORIES - IT HAS NOT CHANGED AN IOATA! It is, thus, That Changeless Infinite Being I call the Son of My Father/Mother. It is Life Itself and expresses Itself in an Infinite number of ways of which I Am One and You Are One. If That is so: Then It must also be that I and You are One; as well as all that all Others and You and I are One. Once Each and Every One of Us get that, then All of us will truly know nothing but Heaven in our experience of life on the planet earth. And I wonder what we are waiting for to get this most beautiful truth as It is right NOW before us. So I seize it NOW and I'm knowing you are NOW seizing It as well and I say to you, Welcome Home, welcome to Heaven, Brothers and Sisters, and let us NOW and FOREVERMORE accept our Divine Inheritance To This Infinitely Bountiful Good That We Are and say with over-whelming gratitude thanks, thanks, thanks. And so it is, NOW and FOREVERMORE, Amen.

I believe that faith ranks among the greatest gifts available to Humanity; as, it is the way by which one is able to create, demonstrate and experience something new. Thankfully, this spiritual concept is now a well-established fact in our physical sciences: and it has been a Universal Truth known by enlightened individuals since the dawning of mankind. And here is how this Principle operates through the Universal Law of Cause and Effect. That which an individual believes to be so, at the depths of one's being (what one is convinced is so), is what one will experience as one's reality. Now, this is perhaps the most beautiful truth of existence because it means that if I wish to experience a specific reality; all I need to do is align my thinking and, correspondingly my belief, with and to the idea that what I desire is already so and then watch as this shows up and demonstrates itself in my experience of reality. Now, in metaphysics, one of the successful techniques for doing this is via Scientific Mind Treatments and I highly recommend this method as a way to change your experience of life. Other methods one might utilize consist of, but of coarse are not limited to, meditation, centering, self-suggestion, prayer, Reike, etc., etc. etc.(the ways are numerous). Now, there are individuals, organizations, and institutions who sincerely believe that one or other of these various methods is "better" than the others but I am here to say that such thinking and belief is in error and that in Truth there is no thing that is better than another thing and that in Reality there is but One Thing and That One Thing is Spirit (also known as God, Buddha, Krishna, First Cause, Original Source, or whatever you may choose to call your concept of The Creator). I am also here to say that until each and every individual on the planet comes into a realization of the truth of these words, we will continue to experience a world which does not express a reflection of the Ultimate Bliss That is available, first to each individual and then ultimately to all individuals as Humanity at large. Expectantly, you see here, that enlightenment of the world must, by necessity, begin with the individual and then extend outward to all other individuals. So, this is in essence, an invitation to you to now move deeper and more intensively into a constant practice of this Truth towards the purpose of expanding and excelerating your own, as well as others', state of awareness of This One Consciousness. And I say, thank you for joining me in this Marvelous Journey. Amen, and so it is.
March 8, 2007
I recognize an Infinite Pure Potential, I call God, at the Center and as the Source of all I perceive. This Power is therefore the Essence of my Being and I now merge into my realization of my Oneness in It. It is everything and there is nothing that is, that is not a part of It. Since It is Everything, there can be nothing which It lacks; so Humankind's idea that that there is a lack of anything, or a real need of anything, is merely a false notion of Reality. It is a concept born of mistaking effect/form/condition for Cause/Substance/Reality. I am Conscious and so I readily discern between That Which is Substance and that which is form and because I do, I do not know, lack, need, competition nor any other false appearance as anything but temporary, changing effects, circumstances and forms created by individuals who have yet to realize Who They Really Are. As a result, I know only Infinite Abundance, Eternal Peace and Unconditional Love as my Divine Birthright, and I now open myself to and accept into my experience, a free, flowing and abundant demonstration of these Aspects of my True Self. As I sense the surging of this Divine Energy throughout my Being, I shout Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, and I give thanks for this Truth Of my Oneness with The Infinite Goodness and Abundance of the Universe. Having spoken these words in truth to The Power which knows only to act upon my True Intent, I now say Amen and So It Is.
March 7, 2007
I believe That what is before me NOW is the most important Thing in the Universe. I know that this ever-unfolding, ever-present NOW is All That Is and It offers me the opportunity to realize, within Its Presence, my Oneness with it and the Ultimate Truth that all that I desire is already mine and I must but comply with Its Law Of Attraction to demonstrate It in my experience. Truly, no greater gift than this has any parent ever bestowed upon her/his
child and so naturally I feel moved to say thanks, thanks, thanks for this most Glorious of gifts. Having spoken these words in truth, I now release them unto the wondrous Law of Cause and Effect which hears them and moves them into manifestation; and so it is, Amen.
March 6, 2007
Now is the perfect opportunity to relax, let go of anything and everything and move my consciousness to the quiet stillness at the core of my being which is the birthplace of my creative experience. I allow myself to merge into this quiet stillness and to sense and feel my Oneness with It, Which is all that is. As I melt into this Center of my Essence and the Infinite Mind of the Universe, I open my self to, and readily receive all the gifts offered by this Giver of Life, Love, Health, Freedom, Unity, Harmony and Success. I further declare my openness to, and acceptance of this Divine Intelligence and Wisdom in this moment and in each new moment that is given to me as I move in this continual, everlasting and never-ending Now. I say thanks for this Unlimited Bounty flowing all around, in and through me and I release these words, spoken in truth, unto an Unlimited Power which knows only to say, "Yes, yes,
yes; your wish is command" and I rest in total conviction, and knowing, that this Power is manifesting Itself in my experience now and forever more:
Amen, and so it is.
March 5, 2007
Henry Ford said something to the affect that whether a person believes that he can or believes that he can not do a thing, he gets to be right. He was certainly echoing the truth taught a couple thousand years ago by one of the wisest sages of all time, a man named Jesus of Nazareth, who is recorded as having said something to the affect that as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. When one comes into a realization of this truth one will automatically abolish the word "can't" from his mouth forever more and henceforth will speak only the truth of what one can do, which is anything. In the meantime,
you serve yourself best by focusing ONLY on what you believe you CAN do, and desire, so that you may experience that as your reality; and refuse yourself the dubious pleasure of attending to any false thoughts that may tempt you as to what you can't do. In this way, you will best serve yourself until such time as you reveal to yourself the truth of Who You Really Are, at which time you will be re-minded of such truth, not only by these Daily Thoughts, but also by every single thing that you encounter. Namaste'.
March 4, 2007
It is an error to perceive of ourselves as Human Beings having a Spiritual Experience; as, in Truth, we Are Spiritual Beings having a Human Experience.
A Realization of this Truth transforms the Individual and one's experience of Life. For this reason it is well worth while to take time daily to release one's
attention and attachment to the physical universe and move and focus one's awareness on the Center and Core of one's self which is Pure Being, Original
Substance, Infinite Potential, Unlimited Power and Ultimate Intelligence, in order to experience That Spirit as the Changeless Reality and Eternal Essence of one's True Self. Then, continue and maintain this contact and communication with your Creator; this sense of Oneness with It and everyone and everything else, throughout each new moment you are given, in order to experience a joy of, and in, living which will be beyond your wildest imaginings of how Glorious, Fulfilling, Wondrous, and Amazing the Human Experience can be.
March 3, 2007
Today, as I notice anything in my world which is not presently serving me, I release it and let it go in order to make room for that which I now desire, claim for myself, and manifest in my world. I give thanks for this awareness of the Law of Good in the Universe and the marvelous, wondrous way in which It works.
March 2, 2007
Fear is nothing but a mistake. It arises out of an individual's sense of being apart from one's Creator, rather than being a part of one's Creator. So to resolve fear, simply relax into a quiet realization of your Oneness with your Source in which no fear exists. As you accomplish this release of fear and realization of your True Self, give thanks for this marvelous Truth of Your Being as this gratitude supports and makes fertile, your spiritual soil, for the planting and harvesting of more seeds of Truth. And so it is, amen.
March 1, 2007
Today starts the first day of a new month: an opportunity to create for my next now, anything I desire that I do not see in this now. Wow, what an opportunity!!! I seize this moment. I declare for myself my Divine right to all that I desire and I open myself to this Infinite Bounty and receive its flow over, through, and about me now and in each new now which is given to me. I say thanks, thanks, thanks for these bountiful blessings as I confidently and trustingly release these words, spoken in truth, unto the Universe, which only knows to say, "Yes, Your desire is my command". And so it is, Amen.

What I Believe
I
believe there is but One Consciousness in all the Universe and that
each of us are individualized expressions of It in different levels or
states.
My present level/state of Consciousness directly corresponds
with my awareness of It, in what I sense as the Eternal Ever Evolving
Now, and what I believe to be my relationship to It and to all other
individuals within It. And my sense of It is this: that It, I, and all
Others and all things, both seen and unseen, Are One and that any
perception to the contrary is illusion and failure to recognize such
illusion accounts for any and every form of discord experience in and
by Humanity. I believe that in This Consciousness, there is no such
thing as lack, need, or anything else; as This Consciousness is, in
Truth, All That There Is and by Its very Nature can not lack or be
separate from any person, place or thing. I believe that each
individual is evolving into a realization of these Truths and that it
is immutable law and inevitable that sooner, rather than later All
individuals will come into Realization of their True Selves and I
believe it is folly and error to believe otherwise although I respect
and honor one's choice to do so, as does the Universe. And finally, I
believe most strongly and profoundly, with every fiber of my Being,
that all that I know is this Eternal Now in which I move and have my
Being: It has always been, is now, and will forever be. And my state
of Consciousness in this NOW, as well as each unfolding moment within
this Now, is the matter of the Utmost Importance and Highest Regard to
my personal experience of This One Life. I believe if I were to
transition out of my physical body right now I would continue to
experience Life in the SAME STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT I NOW HAVE.
So, NOW I seize this opportunity to quietly relax and silently merge
into the center and core of my Being and realize and experience my Self
as That Part of Consciousness (God) That I am and I say to You that I
find That I Am in Truth, the Peace, Joy, Glory, Abundance, Success,
Health, Wholeness, Love, and All that which I desire and seek. And
so I say, thanks, thanks, thanks for this beautiful fact of Reality and
the Wondrous Gift That It Is. And I release these words unto the
Universe and Its Power which responds to these words spoken
courageously in Truth, and so it is, Amen.
March 17, 2007
As let go and allow
my body, mind and spirit quietly relax into the absolute stillness of
my Being, I am reminded of the feelings of gratitude I gave myself upon
my first awakening this morning. I recall my thought that it is indeed
a special, natural state to “make gratitude your attitude”; and the
difference that this produces in one’s enjoyment of life. As I glance
out my window, I see snow everywhere and I am grateful. I am grateful
I have a window that I can glance through and that it is part of a
house which provides me with warmth and other protective comforts from
the occasional extreme conditions which nature sometimes gives the
universe. I am very grateful for physical and spiritual sight, taste,
touch, hearing and all that I perceive through all of the senses, both
physical and spiritual. In the end, I see that I am grateful for all
of It and my relationship to all of It: that I am part of this Amazing,
Unconditional Loving and Infinitely Intelligent Power expressing Itself
through my experience of every single breath I take, every single
thought I think, every single word I say and every single thing I do.
And naturally I must say thanks, thanks, thanks for all of It and for
me in and of It, and I let go these words unto The Greatest and Only
Power in the universe, acting on my every word spoken in truth, and so
It is, amen.
March 18, 2007
I relax now and let
go of any and all tension, restriction, obstruction, or constriction in
my body and mind and I feel my awareness of my sense of myself melt
into nothingness as I merge into the Being at the Center of my
Existence. I feel an Energy everywhere in, through and about me and I
know this Energy as The Source of my True Self. I now call upon this
All Knowing Intelligence to direct me in all that I think, feel, say
and do NOW and in each NEW NOW which is given to me in this marvelous
experience of Life. I am joyed in all of this and I naturally say
thanks for same as I release these words, spoken in Truth, to a
Universe Which knows only to say, "Yes", and I rest quietly and
confidently as these desires Now manifest themselves in all of my
experience. And so it is, amen.
March 19, 2007
Now I quiet my mind
and let go of anything and everything outside myself and bring the
focus of my attention to the still quiet core of my Being which is one
with and a part of The One Unlimited and Infinite Power in the
Universe.. I hereby let go of any sense of separation from this Pure
Potential and I realize with every fiber of my Being, that I Am, as all
Others, an individualized expression of this One Spirit. So I allow
myself to lose any false sense of separateness from this Eternal First
and Only Cause and permit myself to merge totally into Oneness with
It. Having surrendered this false sense of self, I am NOW aware that I
am filled with Consciousness which is All-Knowing, All-Powerful and
All-Wise, and It is this Sole and Only Cosmic Mind which NOW and
forever more directs, guides and causes my every word, thought, belief,
feeling, word and action. For this truth, I am exceedingly grateful
and I say thanks, thanks, thanks to The Universal Power within me and I
release these words unto That Very Power which, even already, manifests
these truths in my experience as I say So It Is, Amen.
March 20, 2007
NOW - The Greatest Gift
Yes,
for me that realization is Everything and here is why. For me,
yesterday seems but an illusion and tomorrow seems but a dream, and
that my only opportunity to affect either of those two possibilities
rests entirely and solely in this ever-present and ever-unfolding NOW.
This
simple Truth seems so obvious and “in your face” that it would seem
everyone, everywhere, constantly would exist in Consciousness of this
All-Important Reality. Ah, but this just isn’t the case; is it?! And
I know why that’s so and I’m writing this to share my insight with
you. You see, it isn’t so because I sometimes forget to be Mindful of
Who I Truly Am: The Same Spirit That You Truly Are: and which every
thing truly is. And the good news is: NOW, I see this condition,
which is temporary and has no substance of its own and I withdraw my
support for it in this very instance and NOW it is no more and I Am One
with You and All in This Very Now and because I have given myself an
awareness and realization of this Greatest of Gifts, I say, thanks,
thanks, thanks and so it is, Amen.
March 21, 2007
The Power in Surrender
As
I now quiet my mind, I reflect upon what I consider to be one of the
most important moments of my life. It was, in fact, a moment which was
born out of “living a life of quiet desperation“. It was for me a
moment borne out of a contemplation and realization that I was never
going to be able to do anything or attain anything which would bring me
to a point of permanent satisfaction. I was aware of this truth
because I could see that despite my numerous and many accomplishments,
none of them had any affect upon me other than to give me some other
goal to reach for and attain. I saw that this was a never-ending
circle which was not likely ever to stop. This thought that I was
never going to be able to obtain complete satisfaction and peace
through any efforts on my part completely demoralized me. I felt the
depths of depression which I feel woefully lacking to fully describe
here. It was as though my life had no purpose. It was as though no
matter what I would do or attain, I would never be satisfied. Out of
this complete desperation came a sincere declaration on my part that I
was hopeless in knowing how to live my life and although I was an
atheist at the time, I made a plea that if a God did exist that I
wanted this God to take over the living of my life henceforth.
For
me, this was a moment of total surrender. Although at the time I felt
personally powerless and helpless, I was given, in that very moment, a
power of such peace and confidence that I lack the words to describe
it. I guess I might say that it is and was the God-Power that exists
in each of us. In truth, in the present moment, I know that to be
exactly the case. And since that moment, I have been committed to
living each new moment in a conscious surrender to that Higher Power
within me to live my life for me. As I remain constant and true to
this commitment, my life is filled with a peace and bliss that is
totally awesome to me. And so, I am so very grateful for this Greatest
Power which flows out of total surrender and I strongly encourage all
my fellow brothers and sisters to consider this great tool for living
one’s life. And so it is, amen.
March 22, 2007
PEACE
Peace
is the reward you give yourself for your wise decision for choosing
What's So! Discord is the punishment you give yourself for arguing
with What's So! So the choice is yours: you alone are responsible for
your reaction to What Is; and you either Consciously choose that, or
you unconsciously allow others to choose for you. Namaste'.
March 23, 2007
Real Power
Now, as I quietly relax into the center of my
being, I merge with an Infinite Presence which I know to be everywhere
at all times and in all places. It is the nature of This Presence that
It is everything that is; and all that I experience flows from it.
Since It is all that there is, It is an Unlimited Power that is the
very source from which all comes. So, in truth, it is this Infinite
Power, expressing Itself through me and all of Its creation, Which
accomplishes anything and everything that is so. Realizing this truth,
I now feel an unlimited potential to do or attain anything I desire.
It is so easy when I, of myself, need not accomplish or attain anything
that I desire. It is easy because I, of myself, am nothing! But my
Father/Mother in heaven, within the depths of my being, can and does
all. And, so now, I turn my life over to this Infinite Unlimited
Potential at the depths of my being, to deliver unto me unlimited
success, abundant supply, and complete happiness, in my experience of
the One Life.
I Am so very, very, grateful to have discovered this
Real Power and for my willingness to surrender my false ideas of who I
am unto It for the living of my life for me. And because I can and do
this in the forever, unfolding, never-ending NOW, I rest quietly, and
most appreciatively, in an untiring conviction that my life is total
bliss and because I have spoken these words in truth, relying on that
Universal Power, to respond unto my word as its own, I say so it is,
amen.
March 24, 2007
How I realize my goals
In living my experience of life, I have a
found it very helpful to have goals that I wish to attain or achieve.
I have also noticed that the clearer that I am about a goal, the more
likely I am to achieve it. So I consider defining my goal to be my
first step towards achieving it.
Now, the second step I take
towards the realization of a goal is to visualize in my mind, a picture
of what it would look like once I have obtained that goal. In doing
this visualization, I bring to bear, the full extent of my imagination,
including the use of any or all of my physical senses. And in truth, I
also bring to bear any or all of my spiritual senses as well. I
perform this step in the quiet stillness of my mind, which is commonly
known as the practice of meditation. This is a creative space in which
a Universe, Which is an Infinite and Unlimited Power, Which responds to
my visualization and sets into motion, all that is needed to bring into
physical fruition, the manifestation and demonstration of my goals.
Now we come to the third step: feeling and expressing my appreciation
and gratitude for receiving my goal. This is a very natural step which
flows naturally from my firm conviction that my goal has already been
realized.
And the final step becomes merely releasing my desire
regarding the goal unto a Universal Law of Cause and Effect, Which
operates upon my desire and demonstrates my goal in my experience.
Now,
that which you see outlined above, is basically what is known in New
Thought as a Scientific Mind Treatment. I have found it to be an
effective way to realize and demonstrate my desires within my
experience of life and I would highly recommend this practice and
exercise to anyone as a method and means to improve and enhance the
quality and joy of having the human experience.
March 25, 2007
Realizing goals -- part two
Yesterday,
I spoke about using a mythology known as a scientific mind treatment
for the purpose of realizing one’s goals. I believe it will be quite
apparent that at the end of that spiritual mind treatment I had
accomplished, in my mind, a mental experience of the goal that I
desired. I had placed my goal into the hands of the Universal Law of
Cause and Effect to demonstrate it in my life.
That brings us to
part two of this plan. That is, how I am to conduct my mental activity
until such time as I demonstrate the desired goal into my experience on
the physical plane. You see, in most cases, there will probably be a
lag time between the
Spiritual mind treatment and the actual
appearance of the desired object into physicality. You may consider
such period of time as being analogous to the nurturing cycle in a
physical garden. In further illustrating this metaphor, consider your
spiritual mind treatment as the seed that you planted into the
spiritual soil of the universe. It is metaphorically comparable to a
seed which you might plant into the physical soil of your garden.
After having planted such a seed, there are certainly things you must
tend to until such time the season arrives in which this seed will bear
its fruit. These things include such activities as protecting the
planted the seed from any weeds that might grow up around It which
might choke out its life. In your spiritual guardian, the thoughts
that might come to you, which are opposed to your desire would be
analogous to such physical weeds. You must be attentive to your
spiritual garden in order that you might weed out of it, any negative
thoughts that would choke off the life potential of this seed that you
planted. If such thoughts should grow in your spiritual garden, merely
pluck them out, by denying their truthfulness, negating any power that
they have to affect your seeds. Additionally, you might reinforce your
spiritual soil with positive thoughts of affirmations of this seed you
planted towards the bearing of its fruit.
So, this is the
type of attending that you will need to put forth with respect to the
spiritual seed you have planted and until such time as it arrives at
harvest time and introduces its fruit, as it pokes up through the
spiritual soil, and fulfills its bloom into a demonstration and
expression in your actual experience of the desired thing.
Yes,
it is indeed going to involve some attention and activity by you in
order for you to realize your goals. This is in accordance with a
universal law that provides that in experiencing life one will half to
pay a price for anything. Stated another way, you do not get something
for nothing. Needless to say, if you are unwilling to pay the price
for what you desire, you will not receive it. Whereas this seems as
such a simplistic thing to say, it would seem that few of us have
gotten this message as we often seemed to have the idea that we can
have everything for nothing. Such a concept is only true in the
absolute sense and it is never so here on this relative plane. All
great thinkers on this plane, from all ages and all times, are aware of
this; and, perhaps Einstein said it best in this country when he gave
us his theory of relativity. In any event, know that here in the
physical realm; you will always need to pay a price for something.
Just as importantly, realize that if you are unwilling to pay the price
for something that you will not receive it. Apply this idea, this
concept, to obtaining and realizing your goals, and you can have
anything that you desire. In an absolute sense, at a spiritual level,
you already have.
In conclusion, I am very grateful for the
knowledge of all of this, a knowledge which is certainly given to me by
the Ultimate Giver of everything, that very Presence at the depths of
my being and your being. So I say thanks, thanks, thanks for all of
these gifts, as I release these words unto a Universe that says yes, it
is so, even before I have set these thoughts onto the keys of my
computers keyboard. And so it is, amen.

Freedom of Thought
Consider
the power in this simple truth: I am free to think any thing I choose
and there is nothing, NO THING at all, that can deprive me of this
Divine Right. What a Marvelous Gift! Marvelous because it is through
the power of thought that I create whatever experience I desire of
Life. It is I, and I alone, Who gets to choose whatever meaning I
might wish to give to any person, place or thing. There is absolutely
no one or thing which can deprive me of this Divine Right. This means I
have all the Power I could possibly desire within these two Divine
Rights: and I use them right here, right NOW and for each NEW NOW, to
declare for myself my Divine Entitlement to All that Is; and I Am, as a
direct result of this wise and judicial use of these gifts, Perfect,
Whole, and Complete in Every Way and there is No Thing that I am
lacking of, or desire for, as I am in Realization that All of It is
Already in Me As Me.
For this most Powerful Truth, I fall to my
knees and say thanks, thanks, thanks to The Unlimited Power within me,
Which responds to my order that It live my Life for me. I NOW release
these words, spoken in truth, unto The Universal Law Of Cause And
Effect, and in accordance with my knowing this Truth of my Being in
This Very Moment, I am Now, and Forevermore, expressing these truths in
my every thought, belief, feeling, word and action and so it is, amen.

“The Game of Life”
I believe:
… God is my Father
… God, as my Father, loves me, and will not allow any real harm to come to me.
…
God lets me play in this place I call earth and in this moment I call
now. This place and this moment shall pass but I shall not.
… I am, have always been, and will always BE. Nothing my Father and I have created can destroy or hurt me.
…
My Father and I have created the Illusion that He and I are separate
and apart. This was necessary so we could play this game I call “life
on Earth”.
... But games have a beginning and an end whereas
those who play them “God and I” do not. We simply tire of one game and
play another.
… To enjoy a game requires establishing rules and pretending things are true that are not really a true.
…
In this game I call “life on Earth”; I pretend that I am this Mortal
Being called Ron, who is composed of a human body, mind and spirit.
The game begins with the birth and ends with death.
… At the end of this game I then choose to either play some other game or just exist.
…
The important thing, for/to me, is that I constantly remember who I
really am as I am playing this game. Otherwise, I will forget that It
is only a game; I will be gripped with fear and I will not experience
the Peace and Joy that I really AM.
… as long as I remember who
I am (a Child of the Loving Father Who constantly protects me and Who
would allow no REAL harm to come upon me), I can play this game and
enjoy it. The moment I forget this, my mind and body falls prey to all
the energies arising from fear; and, I experience that which my mind
has no desire to experience. I do not find such experience enjoyable
so I choose to focus on what I believe is REAL -- I Am, but everything
I perceive through my physical senses is not. (Everything else is a
temporary illusion and will pass: I will not).
… In this game of
life, I interact with many other Children of God. One of them calls
herself Audrey (my wife). Audrey helps me to remember Who I Really Am
and that WE are only playing a game of Life together.
… Audrey and
I are also playing other games called marriage, grand parenting, etc.
She is playing out her roles in these games in such a way that she
serves as a continuing reminder to me of Who We Really Are! She comes
from Love in watching and observing the actions of her granddaughter,
me and her children and one readily can observe in her eyes (in the
mirror of her soul) the Joy she experiences in those Precious Moments.
…Audrey
sometimes forgets Who She Really Is and, as a consequence, becomes
fearful. She forgets her Heavenly Father and that He would never allow
any real harm to befall her.
...Audrey has chosen Ron to play
the game of life with her as she enjoys the Peace she experiences as he
observes her and reminds her of Who She Really Is. In such moments,
she releases her fear, and freely experiences the Peace/Love That She
Is.
… etc., etc., etc.

True Prosperity
Within each individual involved in the human
experience, is an Infinite, Immortal Substance Which is everywhere and
everything; and Which is incapable of being exhausted. In truth, This
Thing is the one and only Reality, and It is all that is.
It is
at the center of everything, the source of everything, and the Essence
of each individual. That is to say, It and the Individual is One and
the Same Thing. Accordingly, since It is everything; who an individual
truly is, is also everything: to wake up to this truth, and to realize
it as one’s very essence, is the experience of true prosperity. This
is a prosperity which can never be taken from an individual and which
is the individuals for all time. Awareness of this truth certainly
sets an individual free: as, if one is everything, there is nothing
for that individual to desire and that one can live In the knowledge
that one is already that which one desires. And so it is, amen.
March 29, 2007
The Real You
In
metaphysical terms, that which is lasting and does not pass is that
which is Real. All else, that which is temporary and does pass, is
unreal.
It
seems to me, that nothing could be more important to an individual; nor
could serve the individual more, than the ability to discern between
that which is real and that which is unreal. The significance of this
ability of discernment cannot be over emphasized and it is unimaginable
to me that anything else could be more important to serving an
individual in the highest regard. There can be no doubt that one who
fails to exercise one’s discernment in all areas of one’s experience
and life, lives one’s life in a world of illusion. The folly of living
life in a world of illusion should be self evident, and of course, it
can only be described as being wrought with peril. On the other hand,
living life in a world based upon reality can only be described as
being wrought with success.
Personally,
I know only One Reality, an Eternal Presence, which is all that there
is. In this Infinite Presence is the very substance of everything that
is, both seen and unseen. Accordingly, It is at the very center of
every single thing, material or immaterial. Thus, It is the core and
at the very center of each individual’s being. In truth, It is the
very essence of each and every individual and It is through each one
that It is able to experience and know Itself.
So
we can see that we have this One Reality expressing Itself through an
infinite number of individuals which are parts of It. The Real You of
each individual is a part of This One Reality. The Real You, and The
One Reality, is One and The Same Thing (The Real You Being An
Individualized Expression of The One Thing). Your idea of being apart
from this One Reality is the false you. This is the notion, idea,
concept that you have of yourself, based upon suggestions giving to you
by an un-evolved society, referred to as the human race.
Here,
I have opened my mind and body to be used as a channel by that One
Reality, to remind you that You are a part of It. And, because this
Real You is in truth everything, all that you need to do to be realized
in whom you truly are in this very moment, is to allow this truth to be
accepted into your mind and heart, and in each new now, to feel and
live this truth of your being.
I am knowing these truths, concerning the essence of the Real You, on
your behalf and I am very grateful for all of these marvelous facts.
And so I give thanks to that Infinite Giving Spirit within me and you
for all of this wisdom and I say thanks, thanks, thanks.
I
know the law of cause and effect and how it operates in the universe.
Because I understand its operation I know that it now hears these words
I have spoken in truth, and is acting upon them even as I set my
fingers onto the keyboard which types these words. And because of
this, I now rest in the peace and knowledge that the truth of these
words is now demonstrating in your experience and my experience of
life. And so it is, amen.
The Internet and Beyond
When it comes to obtaining information
relative to the petty and the mundane: information relative to
answering insignificant questions which arise in the coarse of day to
day living; I have found the Internet to be quite useful towards that
end. Yes, I use this resource extensively to find information and
answers to mundane issues that come before me during the daily course
of living my experience of life. For this resource, I am very grateful
and I’m even more grateful for The Source from which it originates.
Ah
yes, the source from which the Internet originates. I understand that
Mr. Al Gore claims that he is the original source for the Internet.
Ah, but despite his claims, I do know better. For I am in the
realization of The Ultimate Source from Which all the things perceived
my physical senses have their origin and dependence. Yes, I’m referring
to That Ultimate Source of all things I perceive through my physical
senses Which you may choose to call by any name you desire. Call it
First Cause, Pure Potential, The Unified Energy Field, or by any other
name and I respect your right to do so. I shall call It God and hope
not to offend you. Let us and be mindful that a rose, by any other
name would smell the same: as truthfully stated by one of our esteemed
American poets. Let us never shut out truth (where-ever we shall find
it) by obscuring it with semantics which might cloud its meaning.
There are certain spoken words which resonate with all individuals, at
some level of their beings, as reflecting that which is so. In the
depths of every individual soul is a desire to be a part of something
much bigger than itself on which it can depend upon for its very
being. I truly believe, and, at a certain level of my being, know such
a truth and I rest comfortably and totally within It and am here
solely to remind you that you are that very truth. Of course, I am
referring to your True Self: and not that false notion of the you as
being something separate and apart from the universe; but rather as
being One and the same with The Universe.
And I am so grateful in
this moment for the realization of this the truth of Who You Really Are
and for my great honor in the privilege of reminding you of same.
And I am so grateful that I am in contact with this truth of the Real
You and of the Universe and that at any moment that I can turn inside
and within me to a Reality That contains for me the answer to all my
most important questions which are not available on the Internet. Yes,
I speak here of an Infallible Universal Database at the very core of my
being which I can call upon at any moment to deliver unto my state of
consciousness the Reality of Who I really am. What could be more
important than that! Yes, for this I am most grateful and say thanks
to That Infinite Wisdom That is The Presence of my very existence,
within me, and I say, so it is, amen.
March 31, 2007
Unconditional Love
As I peacefully and quietly move into the
center of an Infinite Presence, I am immediately aware that I am a part
of this Perfect Unconditional Love. I move deeper into my realization
that It is the Source of who I am and It is in me and I am in It and We
are One. I now open myself to allow This Perfect Unconditional Love to
flow through my entire being. I contact the truth of the essence of
This Perfect Unconditional Love and am in realization and appreciation
of the truth that, unlike human love, It is a Perfect Love, Which
requires nothing, no condition of anyone or anything in the universe.
Rather, This Unconditional Love embraces all that is: connecting every
single person and every single thing to, in and with Itself. I revel
in the glory of the truth that there is a Love that transcends the
inadequate quality of the human love so often experienced on the
planet. Here at the center of Who I Am is a Perfect Love that expects
and demands nothing of me and freely gives to me all Its Unconditional
Love. How beautiful that this Love requires nothing of me. That I
need not be anything other than what I am for its acceptance, approval,
and perfect love of me.
And now, so very grateful for the
knowledge of This Perfect Love, and It's flow through me: and for Its
Very Essence as me, I gratefully say thanks, thanks, thanks to That
Very Love at the center of me, for all of its blessings.
Having
spoken these words in truth, I now release them unto The Universe, unto
The Law Which immediately responds according to my belief, and says so
it is, amen.

Extremes
As
I look at myself and the patterns that operate in my life, it is easy
for me to notice the influence of an energy which tends to pull me
towards extremes. I guess I could best describe it as an “all or
nothing” attitude. I notice that this is a very subtle influence and
will tend to move me towards one or the other end of a thing. Now,
there is nothing wrong, per se, in experiencing just one end of a
thing. However, I notice that once this experience of the one end of a
thing is over, then there is a tendency to move towards the other end
of that thing and to experience that. For example, if I give my self
to an experience of the emotion of exhilaration, then I will find
myself being drawn to the opposite experience of debilitation.
Now,
I am in realization that, in truth, there is but One Thing. And in
reality, That One Thing is unlimited, infinite, and there is neither
any end nor beginning to That One Thing. If that is so, then how do I
explain that I experience This One Thing as though It had opposite
ends? It can only be that I am perceiving This One Thing as being
finite and limited whereas It is Infinite and Unlimited. Such a
perception can only ensue from a false sense of identity; of
transferring my perception of my self, as being limited, onto The One
Thing as being limited. There can be no other explanation. Once I see
this, it becomes apparent to me that I had chosen to forfeit the
experience of Reality for the experience of illusion. And I readily
appreciate my choice in such instances. There can be no doubt that the
experiencing of an extreme certainly produces in me, a very real and
elevated sense of aliveness. And I notice that it makes no difference
which extreme I am experiencing: whether it be the positive end, or its
opposite negative end. In honesty, I must acknowledge that either
extreme provides me with a very intense feeling of aliveness. And
because of this intense feeling of aliveness, I can understand my
tendency to swing between extremes. And certainly, this swinging
between extremes appears to me to be an operating principle. That is
to say, that if I choose to experience the extreme of exhilaration,
then, subsequently, I find myself swinging to the other extreme of
depression. It would seem to me that the experience of one appears to
be the price one must pay for the experience of the other.
To me, this describes the condition of the human race. We live in this
relative system of duality in which we are experiencing The Infinite
Thing as though It were a finite thing. I clearly see that this arises
out of our own individual sense of mistaken identification.
Identifying ourselves as being definite and limited, we cannot, with
such a sense of identification, experience and perceive of anything
beyond that point of view. Accordingly, we then attribute to our
concept of all things experienced, that same concept that we have of
ourselves. Thus, we experience duality and relativity in, not only
ourselves, but everything, including whatever we conceive to be our
God.
Now,
there is absolutely nothing wrong with any of this: and of course, it
is as it should be. However, if we wish to progress beyond this very
narrow point of view and experience, then we will have to stretch
beyond our current concepts of who we are. If we wish to experience
something greater than ourselves, then we will necessarily have to
first be willing to conceive of ourselves as being something greater
than what we presently perceive ourselves to be. In truth, this will
be a choice that we would be deliberately and consciously making. On a
finite level, most of us will dread and fear the making of such a
choice as we could be wrong and perhaps more than anything else we
detest the idea of being wrong. But this will be the price each
individual will necessarily pay, if one does wish to move beyond one’s
present state of Consciousness.
Here, I am, of course, speaking solely from my own experience. For me,
it was necessary for me to give up my very finite and limited idea of
who I am in exchange for the acceptance of the possibility that there
may be a greater me that exists beyond my present concepts. Of course,
it was necessary for me to delve in to the depths of personal hell
before I was willing to take such a risk. Of course, the risk here is
the risk of being wrong. For me, that was an easy risk to take. For
as I say, at the point I made this leap, I was in the depths and the
very throngs of personal hell. In such a state, there was no threat by
the fear of being wrong about there being something greater than my
concept of myself. In that particular moment, I felt as wrong as one
can be. In that moment, I felt that there was no way to be more wrong
than I was in that moment. Accordingly, there was no risk or fear in
being wrong in giving in to the possibility of something else greater
than myself as being possible. So you see, in the depths of that most
horrible looking moment, was a gift so momentous and so infinite, that
the preciousness of that gift far exceeds any ability that I might have
in my attempts to here describe it. Let us say that I would not
exchange that gift for anything. And what is the gift? It is simply
the knowledge that there is something greater than any finite concept
that I may have of myself and This Something is responsive to my
surrender to It and my invitation to It to live my life for me as well
as for total fulfillment of my truest real desire. And what is my
truest, real desire one might ask. And I would answer that my one
real, truest desire is to have an experience of it all. It seems to me
that I will not settle for less. That I am this “all or nothing”
individual which seeks and desires everything that there is. It
further seems I will not be satisfied with anything less. And the
greatest of truths for me is that in truth and reality, I am at the
depths of my being, a part of All that is
and I am this very Thing that I seek. What a comfort, what a joy and
what a gift I have been given! And notice, this is a gift I gave
myself out of the depths of the most trying and difficult moment of my
life.
And
so I say to you, if you are discontent with how your life is, and with
how you conceive yourself to be: that that is a very positive
circumstance and a very hopeful thing. Because I believe that when an
individual gets beat up enough by the life he or she has created for
him/herself, and finally comes to an recognition and acknowledgment of
the truth that he or she has been totally inept; then one will finally
come to arrive at a point of humility and reality where one understands
that one is not in control of anything. At that point, in desperation,
one will cry out in complete desolation, for help from any possible
higher power and that very same power will respond and give to the
petitioner that very thing the petitioner seeks. And the petitioner
will come to see that the very thing that he or she seeks is not
something which is outside of one’s self but in fact is at the very
core and center of one’s being and is, in reality, the very source and
essence of one’s being. Eventually, one may come to choose to call
that thing and God as I do. However, that is not necessary, as it does
not matter what label we put on The One and Only Thing. The only
thing that matters is that we can come to see that there is a Power in
the universe that responds to our need and is a supplier of that need
and is indeed Something which is in us rather then outside of us. In
truth, one comes to see that This Thing is not only in us, around us,
and through us, but is in fact everywhere. As one comes into a
realization that there is but One Thing and This One Thing is
everything.
I
say thank you to that very same Power within me, as me; that this is
the truth of things: as I can imagine no other truth that could appeal
to me more. And so I say, it is so, amen.

“The Secret”
It is hard to imagine that there are many people
living in the Western Hemisphere who have not yet heard about the movie
and book entitled “The Secret”. In the event that you might be one of
those who haven’t, I would suggest you include it as one of the gifts
that you may give yourself. The book and movie will serve to remind
you, in a very profound and dramatic way, of the universal law of
attraction which is the principle that what one thinks about, one is
attracted to, and attracts to oneself.
Now, there is nothing
new about this universal law which has been in operation for eternity.
Neither is it new to the millions of individuals who are living on the
planet who are applying this principle to living their lives on a daily
basis. However, there seems e is little doubt that it is new to the
vast majority of people on the planet and their exposure to it at this
time is both timely and valuable for both their individual use, as well
as for the use of the whole human race. I believe the reasons for this
to be self evident.
So the purpose of today’s thought is merely
to assure that you are aware of The Secret and to remind you to apply
it in living each moment in order to enjoy more success and greater
realization of your pure potential .
April 3, 2007
Self Image
And now I contemplate what significance, if any, the image I have of myself, means in the living of my life.
The
first thing that comes to mind is the question as to what basis forms
this image I have of myself. This basis is important as it
necessarily, by definition, will determine the picture of me that I am
going to have. Accordingly, then, to best serve myself in this regard,
I am going to want to make certain that I am using a basis of the
highest order. So I will look to assure that I am choosing a basis of
the highest order in order that I might produce results of the highest
order.
So now, all I need to do is to determine what the basis
of the highest order is. For me, the basis of the highest order is the
Universe. That is so, because It encompasses all that is. It
reflects, in my use of mind, perfection, order, organization,
intelligence, love, harmony, unity and peace everywhere I look. And, I
see that It is everywhere all the time and It is within everything, as
well as being everything. I know and can feel that It is in me, as
me. Ahh, here is a beautiful thing upon which to base my image of
myself. It has all of the qualities which I desire. So now, as my
choice of an image I have of myself, I consciously choose this Universe
as the picture of who I am. Now I have a basis for success; for my
image of my self is now based upon The Highest Source for success.
With such an image, all that flows in and from my thought, word and
action will be aimed at the highest expression of success possible. I
am thankful for having made this wise choice and, knowing the truth of
the words I speak and The Law of The Universe That operates upon them,
I gleefully and gratefully say, so it is. Amen.
April 4, 2007
Effective Prayer
I
have come into a realization that the effectiveness of my prayer is
dependent upon several things. For me, prayer is the opportunity which
exist in this very present now moment to be Conscious. To me, being
Conscious means to have a feeling and sense of Oneness with
everything. It is a state of mind and being in the which I feel a
reality of myself as being a part of everything else and that this
everything else is Who I am.
Now,
in such a state of Consciousness, what naturally comes to my attention
is a very compelling sense of gratitude for this experience of truth.
I then notice a number of thoughts appearing in my use of the Cosmic
Mind, expressing these feelings of gratitude in words. Since in this
state, I recognize the Core of Who I Truly Am as being One Mind with,
and as, Everything; it is a quite natural movement of my use of mind to
express the feelings of gratitude which flow out of such a Realization.
Next,
I will focus my attention on any area of my experience of Life where I
desire to manifest something new. As I do this, I do it in the Present
mode. This means that I use words and images, in describing that which
I desire, in a way that reflects my deepest feelings that I already
have the thing desired. I find this to be an easy exercise as I am
already in a state of Consciousness in which I firmly and totally feel
that I am already Everything.
At
this point, it is fitting and natural to once again give thanks for the
new thing that I have just spiritually experienced. And so I express
with words I think in my mind, my deepest feelings of appreciation and
gratitude for the marvelous and wonderful truth of Reality.
Now
I come to the final step, and you may view this as a Seal of a Faith.
At this time I take the opportunity to declare my understanding of the
Law of Cause and Effect. In my understanding of this Law, I know It as
an Impersonal, Infinite Power of Pure Potential, Which knows only to
say yes to my words, acting upon them and manifesting them into the
physical realm. I accomplished this with the simple use of the words,
“So It Is, Amen”.
If
you are a student of metaphysics then you will recognize all of the
above as an implementation of what is referred to as a Scientific Mind
Treatment. If you are not, please notice that this prayer consists of
five principal steps which are:
… Recognition of an Infinite Power
… Unification and Identification of myself as being a Part of That Power
… Realization of the thing I desire to manifest in my experience
… Gratification for this thing as already being manifested in my experience
… Release of my words to the Law of Cause and Effect
This is the method of prayer which I have found to be most effective in my personal experience.

Prosperity
And now I quietly relax and let go of any and all
tension or tightness in my physical body and any and all thoughts in my
mind. And now I recognize, at the very center of my being, an Infinite
Presence, which I know and experience as and Unlimited Abundance and I
realize That This Infinite Presence, This Unlimited Abundance, is the
Very Source of All That Is.
And now I experienced my Oneness
with this Unlimited Abundance. I completely and totally immerse my
feeling of Oneness with this Infinite Bounty. I allow myself to feel
my total immersion into this One and Only Thing. This One and Only
Thing is All there is and It Is Everything That Is. There Is No
Separation between This One and Only Thing and Who I Truly Am.
Therefore, What Can Be Said of This One Thing Can Also Be Said of Who I
Truly Am.
And Now I allow myself to Fall Further into a Personal
Realization of This Truth of My Being. I Am, in Truth, All That Is. I
Am Everything. I Am That Which I Desire. And since I am everything,
there is nothing outside of myself to desire. I am already all of it.
There is nothing outside of Who I Truly Am for me to desire.
Accordingly, I already am and have all that there is to be and have.
I
am so grateful to know this truth about the Reality of my Being. It is
so gratifying to me to realize that I already am and have all that
which I desire. That in truth, there is nothing that I could desire
that I do not already have. And I further realize that this having is
indeed True Prosperity as It is indeed an Infinite, Unlimited, and
indefinable Abundance that exist everywhere in The Universe.
Accordingly, This Is a True Prosperity Which Cannot Be Diminished nor
Exhausted. It Is the Type of Prosperity That Can Be Shared and It Can
Never Be Lessened, and, in a sense can only Increase by Ever Higher
States of Consciousness of Its Reality.
I Know and Understand
the Law of Attraction and the Law of Cause and Effect Which Now Acts
upon These Words Spoken in the Faith and Conviction and Confidence and
Which Even Now Acts upon These Words in Demonstrating Them into My
Experience of Physical Reality As I Say, and so It Is Amen.

Goals
As I contemplate goals and the role they have played in my
experience of Life, I see that they have had a significant impact on my
earthly journey.
For the most part, up until about 12 years ago,
my focus had been on the setting and achieving of materialistic goals.
Most of them were associated with what I’d desired in, and of, various
income-producing activities. I had set goals all along my way and I
had tracked them very meticulously. I was always very egotistically
pleased with myself in meeting and exceeding all my goals along the way.
And
then, on a particular occasion, a little over 12 years ago; as I was
examining my life; I looked and saw that the fact that I had attained
my goals was totally meaningless in adding anything to my satisfaction
with life. I found that each time I reached a particular goal that
seemed so important and meaningful at the outset, in the end, held no
value for me. And of course, I would then replace that goal with the
next one. And despite all of the successes, I still felt empty and
un-fulfilled. This feeling turned into a desolation and depression I
do not have the words to describe. The significance of this particular
experience was that it led me into a peak spiritual experience which
transformed my concept of me and my relationship to everything else.
And
during that event, I surrendered myself to the Universe and made a
Conscious choice and a spiritual goal that I would henceforth live my
life under the direction and guidance of That Higher Power. Now, at
the time of this surrender, I was void of any practice or fundamental
spiritual belief systems. So this surrender actually took the form of
my uttering words to the effect, that if indeed there was a God, as
proposed by so many of the nations populace, that I was appealing to
this Infinite Being to henceforth live my life for me. My experience
of life since then has been an awesome marvelous peaceful and joyous
journey. It has been wrought with the practice of setting spiritual
goals and subjecting and subordinating any materialistic goals to them.
And,
I am here today, only and solely to say to you that this setting and
accomplishing of spiritual goals in my everyday life have meant a world
of difference in the satisfaction that I experience in nearly every
moment of my existence. In truth, it is only when I might forget to be
mindful of these spiritual goals that my experience of life will be
anything less than peaceful and blissful. So, I wish it to strongly
recommend do you, that in the event you are not setting spiritual
goals for yourself; that this very moment, this now, and the next now
that may be given to you, is the perfect opportunity for you to
consciously choose to put this recommendation into practice. Of
course, it is my desire that you do so, but it is your perfect right
and freedom to do otherwise as I am knowing that the value of any and
all experience of Life is equal and there is no experience that is
better then another one. All experience of Life, sooner or later,
serves to remind the individually as to his or her True Identity, and
that my dear friends, is a Divine Gift which awaits the acceptance of
each one of us. And so it is, amen.

Breaking the Rules
Generally it is wise to obey rules. However,
just as important to following rules is the knowledge and wisdom to
know when to break the rules.
If you would but turn your will
and life over to some Greater Power within you; you could then rest
comfortably and confidently, in the certainty that, That Infinite
Intelligence will intuitively guide you to think, believe, feel, say
and do the thing that will serve you in the highest and best way in
this present moment, as well as in each new moment of this
never-ending, ever-unfolding NOW.

Remembering
And now I am seizing this very moment and never-ending Now to move quietly into the very center of my Being and, behold, It is
Who I Am, That I find here and so I say thank you to That Infinite Presence within me and It is so, Amen. Namaste'.

Who You Are
I decided right NOW is the best opportunity I have
to say what is frequently before me and that my friend, is Who You
Really Are. Who you Really Are
is a part of All That Is!
As such, You are an individualized expression of That One Consciousness
and your purpose is to be an unique Self-Realization of That One Truth,
in whatever way you conceive That Truth to be. So congratulations, you
are doing a superb job and thanks for your Presence here .
Namaste'.

Friends
It is quite well known in metaphysical teachings that if
you desire to have a friend that you only need to be a friend. Well,
to me, that certainly makes a lot of sense. Certainly, the logic of it
seems flawless. In any event, I think that the important thing about
friends is what they mean to you. For me, a friend is someone who
chooses me just as I am and just the way I am not. And naturally, this
infers that such a person passes no judgment upon me and just totally
accepts me in whatever way that I am. To me, this is one of the
greatest gift that one individual can give to another. I hope that you
will consider and choose me as your friend and please know that you are
certainly mine.
Namaste',

Healing
For me, healing has become a matter of choosing for myself, the highest truth imaginable. I am committed to watching my thoughts. I do this because I know and understand the Law of Attraction. Accordingly, I desire to assure that only the highest thoughts I can imagine make their way out into the operation of this very same Law of Attraction. When I notice a thought which falls short of this desire, I immediately cancel it and replace it with another thought that more accurately reflects my true desire. In that way, I am always creating for myself, an experience of Life that I desire.
In doing this, those thoughts which are my highest imaginable, all are the truths which I choose for myself. As such, they reflect the very best that I can imagine and, to me, that represents Truth. And in fact, there is a part of me, which I know to be Pure Spirit, which knows that my choice of the truth and the Truth Itself are One and the Same.
It is This Truth which sets one Free. Free from every lack, limitation, illness or other false belief. Such a Freedom is Absolute and establishes and identifies me in, and as, Pure Spirit. When one is in a state of Consciousness where one is in a realization of one's True Self, one has, in effect, effectuated a healing of his or her false sense of separation from Whom One Really Is, Pure Spirit. One's mission, after having attained such a Realization, is to maintain that state throughout the rest of one's experience of life. This will forever be a process rather than accomplishment. And may all individuals know that this is so, and constantly remind each of other of this most liberating Truth. Namaste'

so many things to do ???
Sometimes I will notice thoughts and their accompanying stressful feelings of being overwhelmed with all the things I would like to do and feeling as though I do not have the time to do them all. I immediately recognize that whereas I certainly can never do them all, I certainly can do one of them right now so I choose the one thing I feel is most important and I do just that one thing in the moment.
By practicing this mindfulness moment to moment, I am fully able to efficiently and effectively use each and every moment to produce good feelings of satisfaction and accomplishment and I am free from any negative and health-harmful thoughts and feeling of stress, worry and lost opportunity.
I am knowing that the use of such a practice can also benefit others so I am posting it here, not only out of love for others but also out of the need to re-mind myself of the enormous wonderful benefits flowing out of a vigilant awareness of what I am thinking and feeling. By doing this I am able to experience the joy of what I desire to experience rather than what I do not desire.
My intention is that others be aware of this most practical tool so that they might utilize it if they also consciously choose to experience what they desire rather than that which they do not desire.

Success - Part 2
SUCCESS - IS AN EVER-UNFOLDING AND NEVER ENDING PROCESS AND STATE OF MIND. It begins when one moves one's level of Consciousness from an attitude of GETTING to an attitude of GIVING.
Nearly everyone is familiar and believes in the sayings, "What goes around comes around", "What goes in is what comes out", "Do until others as you would have them do unto you (The Golden Rule), and several others. All such sayings are merely different ways of expressing a Universal Law known and taught by the wisest and most reverned and respected teachers of all time and that is the Law of Attraction now popularized throughout the world as the message in the best selling books, "The Secret" by Rhoda Byrne and "The Law of Attraction" by Jerry and Ester Hicks.
However, there are actually literally dozens, if not hundreds or thousands of books and other writings having this message, either as the theme or a subsidiary teaching, which are centuries old. That is because this law is really no "secret" at all; as all individuals know intuitively, at some level of their Being, that this Law is a Principle operating everywhere they look and that accounts for its current popularity among spiritual teachers, authors and students of Life.
Now, to benefit from this Law, all one needs to do is to practice and focus on GIVING rather than on getting. This will be a challenge for most individuals as there is a tremendous amount of propaganda and past programming in their experience of Life that convinces them that "there is not enough". Because they believe there is not enough, they thus have a feeing of a need to compete for the "little" that they believe exist. Thus they focus on getting their desired part of that. Now, there is nothing "wrong" with that state of Mind but it will not get one what is desired; as the Law will respond by making the individual right (It has to by its Nature) and the individual necessarily experience his/her belief that there is "not enough".
The Truth is that there is enough! Of everything!
But this truth is of no use to an individual unless the individual consciously chooses to accept it. (that is the Beauty of Life/Creation - each gets to choose one's own beliefs, and accordingly, one's own experience of It)
I believe it was Henry Ford who said that "whether a man says he can or he can't do a thing, he gets to be right". Henry was just yet another wise individual attempting to share with mankind, the Power which lies within one's beliefs: Christ, Jesus of Nazareth, is still another in his worldwide famous teaching that "as a man thinketh, so is he"; as well as many of his other teachings of this same ilk. (of coarse, all the teachers such as the Budda, Krishna, etal of the all the various world religions have taught the same thing in perhaps different words or different ways, but ll of them were teaching the same truth that We are Indeed, All One: contrary to the appearance/illusion/belief that we are separate (an egoic concept and notion which is at the root of every and all undesirable conditions on this planet).
Now, again, the challenge is in how to transcend one's present attachment to a belief that there is "not enough" (an illusion) to KNOWING the Truth that in Reality there is enough, of everything! This Knowing is a movement and transformation into realizing oneself as Success Itself, and from this state of mind, in accordance with the Universal Law of Attraction, everything one thinks, says and does demonstrates nothing but the Success one already Is!
I intend to cover the how of making this transformation as I move further in this blog - after all, It Is all Process. In the meantime, I highly recommend one's reading and practice of these practices as published in available voluminous publishings, not the least significant of which you can find in the ever popular writing of Napolean Hill in his book, "Think and Grow Rich".
It is my intention and utter Joy that others might benefit and realize their every desire toward Good through anything I might be privileged to share here: and it is enough for me, indeed, should it be that I am the only beneficiary of these High ideas and concepts. And so It is and for these words, and The Law which acts upon them, even as I set them forth here, I am very, very grateful and I release them easily unto the Universe with full and complete knowing that they are so already and for this I am very, very grateful And so It Is.
