LIFE FRESHLY CONCEIVED

Let us accept our inner power to create

the life of our dreams, the life we have

envisioned – prayed for – desired so

long using this life, we now live – now

inhabit as the canvas, the foundation

for our efforts.

 

Let us, through our inner power, see

this life we now live with more clarity

and balanced assessment – let us

determine where less is called for and

more is required, what must disappear

and what must expand into a stronger

presence.

 

Let us now, with this reassessment

completed, use our cocreative power

to envision this freshly conceived life

into a working model to guide our

prayers, infuse our affirmations, give

life to our meditations, propelling our

actual efforts with centered emotion

and right attitude as this new thought

takes form.

It is really discontentment our egos use

to spur us on, to get us what the ego thinks

is rightfully ours. The trouble with being

content is that our egos have an insatiable 

appetite, often stoked by our sense of lack, 

along with the fear of not getting our share. 

    What if we could just stop, right here and 

now,  saying -   "I am content with what I have, 

who I am, and where I am in life. I have no

need for more, I have all I want right now!"  

    What would it take for us to do this?

Is it possible? 

 

BEING CONTENT 

Let us be content with what we have

and rejoice in our abundance, recognizing

the gifts of a prosperous life have been

given to us – providing for us so we may

move forward, and live the message we

have received.

 

Let us be content with who we are -

knowing we are fully prepared

to do the work we are called to do –

a perfect combination of talents, skills,

ability, and positive attitude ready to

transform our lives, the lives of others,

and the world.

 

Let us be content with where we are -

perfectly poised to receive our greatest

good, and in return, offer it back multiplied

by our vision-based in love – back to those

who are waiting to receive – waiting to

flourish – waiting to be touched.

The Venture Out Affirmative Thought below

entered my mind one line at a time, and as

I transcribed I wondered where it was going

and what it meant.  

    As is my habit,  I copied the note and put

the copy on the kitchen table and delivered 

the original note to Ann with her tea.  

    As Ann was dressing and I was making my

usual P and J on a muffin, I glanced down

at the note and my mind fixed on the phrase 

"your inner magnificence.” 

    I thought to myself, what does the word

magnificence really mean? In what seemed 

like an instant this answer came into my

thoughts. 

 

        The magnificence is fully realizing, living,

        being, and touching your own Divinity -

        you and God living in full, complete,

        and purposeful, harmony.

 

    As I grabbed my journal and wrote

the definition down,  I thought it made

perfect sense, for truly what would be more

magnificent or enlightening than living

in complete purposefull harmony. 

    As I pondered,  I remembered that I had

once received Meditation Guidance

that I had titled Magnificence.

 

VENTURE OUT

Venture out beyond the confines of

    your day - today - joining  life as it pushes

the boundaries of what is anticipated

    or expected – edging your way

to a clearer and fuller understanding

    of your inner magnificence.

 

Venture out and discover the thought

    just forming on the horizon of

your consciousness – a new thought –

    a vibrant thought so compelling that

once created it cannot be abandoned

    but must be welcomed with open

arms into being.

 

Venture out into the light of fresh

    existence – endless possibilities –

wondrous potential knowing you

    within have the seed of greatness

growing – that you are the bloom

    of the infinite creation.

MAGNIFICENCE

Magnificence – see it in your life – understand

what this word means in terms of spiritual

growth and development. To be Magnificent

is to be beyond expectation, possibility, to

be God-like in your very nature.

 

Magnificence is magic in life, the purely Divine

in life waiting for your ability to conceive its

presence. Something magnificent is going to

happen if you are ready and able to accept

and receive it. It is Magnificence beyond

conception – so special – so profound that

it is beyond comprehension.

 

Living life as fully authentic – being who you

are and were meant to be; is Magnificence.

Being able to feel the love of God – understand

God’s place in your life; is Magnificence.

Moving beyond your ego and adopting the

qualities of God; is Magnificence.

 

Understand the connection of all humankind

as a combined force – a billion hands creating

a greater force for creative life; is Magnificence.

Fully loving all these hands; is Magnificence.

Looking into the face of life and seeing the Divine –

the Magnificence that exists and awaits you.

This is the pure spirit of God infused in your

life and the life of the whole of humankind –

the creative life of man.

 

Listen. Watch. Something Magnificent is

happening – in every moment of life –

learn to see it – feel it – be it. Love it.

Since January of 2008, when I first transcribed

one of my earliest Divinely inspired notes of

guidance after meditating during  a commute

to Washington DC, titled The Crystal Path To

The Heartlight, I have realized “crystals” would

be a major component of the message, I would

be asked to convey. 

    To date, I have received notes about the crystal

path, the crystal self, crystal consciousness,

and this Meditation Guidance below titled 

The Crystal Light. Granted, I have read the

works of David Bohm, a former associate of

Einstein's, retired Professor of Theoretical

Physics, featuring his theory that the universe

is constructed on the same principles as the

hologram.

    The word hologram means "whole message,"

with Bohm proposing every particle of the

universe is composed of a hologram of the

entire universe, which as a whole makes up

what Bohm calls the Implicate Order - 

the enfolded universe.

    What is different, leading to my initial

hesitation to publish this note, is that it

clearly conveys our existence is a result 

of refracted light through a crystal.

    On the other hand, it does offer a fresh

approach to God consciousness, so here

goes. 

 

THE CRYSTAL LIGHT

We are living and existing in the crystal light

of God Consciousness, comprising the universe –

containing the universe itself – all matter –

all space within is refracted light illuminating

the creative intentions of God – we – you –

me all exist in this consciousness as creative

energy evolving, expressing, and becoming

more – expanding the nature of God.

    At the edges of the universe is the crystal nature

of God holding – growing – becoming – with

light streaming through this crystal fabric –

this hologram shell representing all life, all

matter, all space, all time - and within creating

what we see as the visible universe.

    All appears real to us in this three dimensional

illumination - as tangible, whole, hard, real.

Within, is the universe of holographic light –

each particle of all matter is a hologram

of the whole. Within, the creative forces

of God intention exist as if separate – distinct,

but are merely the individual elements of this

whole. Living holograms within – connected -

one particle of God’s dream.

NOE BY G. 11.3.2011

 

P.S. Each of us is a unique expression of God

desire, God potential - free to explore the

boundaries of life - to push the limits of

creation. Miniature Gods of sorts.

When we approach our lives with loving-kindness

do we really light up the world as the Affirmative

Thought below suggests?

 

I think we do, and we also light up our lives.

But let’s be honest, it takes a great deal of effort

at times to focus our ego-driven minds in this

direction. This is possibly the reason the Kabbalists

and Buddhists have made this the centerpiece

of enlightenment. Let us not forget Christianity,

which is built on Jesus’focus on love and kindness.

 

LIGHT UP THE WORLD 

Light up the world today with your love,

                  kindness, and compassion 

   and the world will love you back ten fold

                  as you open up the loving essence 

      of the universe.

Light up the world today with a simple

                  acts of kindness and compassion, 

   showing the universe and all you meet

                  your Divine nature full of loving-kindness. 

Light up the world today by transforming 

                  your conflicts with others into

   a new mindset based on love and caring.

                  Lose your problems and by doing so

      dissolve your problems.

Light up the world today with love, compassion,

                  and kindness for yourself – 

   fully encouraging and supporting your actions

                  and allowing yourself to become your

      authentic self.                

Light up the world today with love, 

                    noticing how you and the universe shine!

THESE DAYS AFTER CHRISTMAS –

THE CHRIST MEME

Christmas is a reminder that we are all

capable of a beingness greater than we

often attempt to harness in our day-to-day

lives. In that Bethlehem manger was born

an idea so revolutionary that many of us

continue to struggle with it today.

 

For me, at least, it makes perfect sense that

a Universal God Consciousness would work to  

effect change by altering our attitudes, our

perspectives, our basic logic using a set of

ideas, although often appearing absurd,

remain uniquely contagious and still innately

appealing.

 

Christmas is an annual reminder that we,

as humanity, are capable of more, and we

are the hands and feet of God on earth, quite

capable of grasping our inner Divine nature

for the good of all existence: and with faith,

belief, and focused attention, we are able

to cocreate our lives, as well as our communal

destiny, with God.

 

The ultimate good I envision from Christmas,

is our overall continual evolution as a species,

no longer at war with ourselves and each other,

but Christ-like in key respects, realizing our unity,

our common origin and ancestry – living with

tenderness and love.

 

As we throw away the wrapping paper, discarded

boxes, and the leftovers from our annual holiday

feast – let us take some time to unravel the truth

of  this newborn’s message - peace on earth with

goodwill towards men. 

 

As the note below conveys - this Christ Meme

and this Christmas - celebrates the birth of this

profound idea.

 

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS  

Let us all reflect on and fully

            comprehend the true meaning

 of Christmas – the birth of 

            the profound idea in the infinite

consciousness of all humankind –            

            simply that our capacity to love

is the key to finding heaven on earth.

 

Let us reflect, this Christmas, on

            a simple man who understood

the key to salvation – love –

            and who had the strength

and compassion to face

            the darkness of the world

to bring true light to all of us.

 

Let us carry forth this Christmas

            spirit of love - moving

beyond the gifts and ornaments

            of the season - into

the light of our own Divinity!

THAT’S CHRISTMASTIDE TO ME

CHRISTMASTIDE – 1. the festival season

from Christmas to after New Year’s Day.

2. the period from Christmas Eve to

Epiphany, especially in England.

 

I have been so caught up in the celebration

of Christmastide,  I have just not had

the time to sit down and write a holiday

post. No hurry, since, thanks to my

mother, my Christmas observance is

fully extended to the maximum length.

 

My mother would have never permitted

a decoration to be touched until after

January 6– Epiphany – the day set

aside to celebrate the appearance of

the infant Jesus to the Magi – those

wise men from the East, sent by Herod,

who brought gifts (Matt 2:1): later

clarified and expanded upon to be

kings named Casper, Melchior,

and Balthasar offering gifts of gold,

frankincense, and myrrh.

 

My absolute favorite holiday CD,

the Pentatonix’s wonderful contribution

to Christmas titled, That’s Christmas

To Me - the highest-charted holiday

album by any musical group since 1962,

the fourth best-selling album in the US

for 2014. A major achievement of this

a cappella group of vocalists from

Arlington, Texas.

 

I might stop here, but I need to

address in this post what Christmas

means to me.  I would have to

say it represents a time of peace.

Let me explain. For my family,

as a child growing up, my embattled

mother, my often frightened siblings,

and for a boy like me, living with

an abusive father who ranted and ragged

much of the time, it was a sort of family

armistice, where peace actually prevailed.

Frankly, no greater gift could I have

received, then to have a season each year

where I could live as other children lived,

in peace. I guess, down deep, this is

why I never want Christmas to end.

 

Let us make peace on earth a priority.

There is no better place for us to start

then in our own consciousness. If we

all could live as outlined in the note

below, as if Christmastide lasted all

year-long, at least in our minds, it would

be a giant step forward towards

accomplishing this goal on earth. 

 

A PEACEFUL EMBER

Let us cultivate a perspective of peace,

incubating this initial intentional thought,

or imagining the warmth of peace,

knowing even a spark from a solitary

peaceful ember will ignite the full

fire of possibility.

 

Turning quickly away from confusion

or conflict, dispute, or distress, allow

each breath to assume a peaceful cadence,

as our thoughts and actions follow suit,

delivering us from the static of our often

hectic existence, to the tranquil, the serene,

the placid.

 

Realizing it is in this place of peace,

our souls are nourished, our bodies

refreshed, our regrets and misgivings

washed away, as we find firm ground

for our forward progress – clear

sailing for our becoming, a fresh

canvas our creation.

PRAYER FOR THE SEASON 

Today let our prayer be one of thanks

            for the lives of those we love

            and hold dear – for our freedom

Today let our prayer be one of hope

            for all who are without –

            for all those who need the basics –

for all those suffering from not enough

in their hearts, minds, or Souls –

            may they be filled with plenty.

 

Today let our prayer be one of peace

            and joy for all families,

let joy and peace always be available

The note below, titled Pilot Light, is one of my

favorite Holiday messages. Perhaps, the true

meaning of enlightenment is not experiencing

“the light” but instead is being the light itself.

Hopefully, this holiday season will find our

lights shining bright individually and

collectively.

 

THE PILOT LIGHT

Within every heart resides a flame -

a beacon conveying the essence of the

life it lights – a pilot light of passionate

striving – igniting with full vigor when

the path to our destined destination

finds our seeking Souls - there and then

illuminating the world.

 

Perhaps, the very message of this festive

holiday season - centered on celebrating

the brightest light ever to exist - even now,

continuing to offer illumination in this often 

too dim world - a light reminding us of our 

true mission, to join the enlightened magic

by pursuing the very human nature needed 

to embolden our own leaping flames.

 

So let us not mistake the "whole" in the true

meaning of holy - reminding each of us

of our true intent - to share our light 

with like-minded Souls - and by doing so,

fan the flames of a brighter world.

The gift of love from God is ours

today and every day we live, we flourish,

we look beyond the ordinary to see

the extraordinary – every day we feel

the tender touch of grace – the magic

moving us steadily towards our greater

good.

 

Let us cherish this gift, taking it in fully,

then sharing its power with all we

encounter –  touching lives as our lives

have been so splendidly touched –

spreading the love and kindness

wherever we go – to whomever

we encounter.

 

This holiday season let us follow

the gentle and wondrous example of

one who loved with so much strength,

with such conviction that he changed

the world forever – offering all he

touched a chance to live again renewed –

to see once more the love of God in action.

Is the true gift of Christmas one of possibility,

one of the potential to be so much more than

we now manifest in our often struggling human

race. The note below proclaims this to be so,

offering us three gifts, that if properly received

would truly bring us all great joy. 

 

THE THREE GIFTS

In this season of love and wonder, we are offered

the gift of joy – a moment to step from behind our

expectations and gaze at the limitless possibilities

of a world focused on peace and goodwill for all.

In this season of hope and promise, we are offered

the gift of renewal - an opportunity to leave behind

the shards of guilt, regret, or despair still piercing

our more worthy self-perception, enabling a fresh

start to flourish, find its stride, and take flight.

In this season of light and sound, we are offered

the gift of clear perception, a glimpse of the lasting

and loving connection between all living entities –

a chance to hum the jubilant melody of life in full

and everlasting harmony.

I believe we exist now on the edge of the

evolution of humanness. It has, in fact,

already begun - it is not a tweak to ensure

the survival of the fittest, or an upgrade 

of our genes to expand our capabilities

or form, but instead an expansion of our 

human consciousness, a heightened perspective

established on our unique human qualities

of loving-kindness, empathy, compassion, 

sympathy, caring, mutual respect, togetherness,

sincerity, helpfulness, tolerance –  in others

words, our humanity - where we choose to reach

beyond ourselves, towards our own Divinity

within, our true God qualities, and by doing

so shift the current tide of this, our mutual

existence, towards communal salvation,

an all-inclusive transformation – with the

resounding reverberation of  joy, peace, love,

and happiness – the establishment of heaven

on earth.

 

This holiday season, let us all who understand

the necessity of a common effort to reframe

our shared consciousness, take the first

step together, rising up and celebrating  -

the best we have to offer, then reaching,

stretching, becoming the prosperous,

the empowered civilization we envision.

 

RISE AND CELEBRATE 

Let us rise and celebrate this life,

its fullness, its completeness, its splendid

beauty, its vast complexity, knowing

we are more than blessed to take part,

sing its melody, to move to its sacred

rhythm.

 

Today, this day, let us take no moment

for granted, no breath without gratitude,

not a single step without the realization

of our chosen status, alive, aloof, anointed,

full members of a perfect communion,

this earth’s legitimate legacy.

 

As we move with confidence and a sense

of renewed purpose today, offering

our contribution, our touch of magic,

our love, our hope, our courage,

traces of our being, our becoming;

let us set the stage for the evolution

of humanness, reaching through

the secular into the Divine.

The circle has such a powerful spiritual and secular

sense to it - “the circle of life," the “circle will be

unbroken," or the Native American Indian’s focus

on “The Greater Circle,” as outlined in Michael 

Garrett’s book on the Cherokee Teachings for

Harmony and Balance, titled Walking On The Wind.

Garrett quotes the great Medicine Man, Black Elk,

who states:

 

You have noticed that everything an Indian

does is in a circle, and that is because the

Power of the World always works in circles…

 

In this featured Meditation Guidance, titled 

Circle Of Beauty, the unique spiritual nature

of the circle is touched upon, along with its 

connection to God and the soul.

 

CIRCLE OF BEAUTY 

The circle is the center of the Soul and all creation,

the symbol of all life, all being, of the completion

of all existence. The circle is strong but flexible

and, although it can be increased or reduced in

size, it always maintains an outside, an inside,

and the line separating the two.

 

Your life is like a circle with the essence of you 

within the circle surrounded by the world and 

God, which gives you form. God is also with you

within the circle and gives form to the circle as

the external ring.

 

The circle is perfect, beautiful, and sacred.

The circle is power.  The circle is peace.

The circle is a spiritual symbol and provides

the healing that is needed. Consider the 

strength of a ring; the circle cannot be pulled

apart end by end; it must be forced apart with 

great strength. Every cell of the circle has a

vested interest in its existence.

 

The circle of beauty is the circle of life, alive,

flourishing, creating, and becoming as God 

assists and supports - circles of healing,  

circles of prayer, circles of forgiveness, 

circles of faith, circles of love, circles of

magnificence – form these circles:

comprehend the circle, and you will

understand God.

Purposeful Action which, based on my guidance,

includes living an authentic life that reflects our

spiritual mission. I consider this a purposeful

life, or as the title of the Meditative Guidance

outlines below, a New Life. This Purposeful

Life or New Life is awakened life – enlightened

life.

 

NEW LIFE

Search out and move towards New Life –

regenerate a fresh and loving perspective

of this moment and all moments to come.

New Life is fresh, renewed, vibrant, whole

and free of ego dominance.

 

New Life is awakened like, enlightened life.

New Life is full and overflowing with potential,

creativity, and wonder.

 

Immerse yourself in New Life – a new existence

through God – full, abundant, and joyful. 

See the New Life as it manifests into being.

Each moment offers the opening for a move

to the New Life – you must free yourself

to see the New Life and move your spirit to it.

 

In the secular physical world of illusionary

action you fight for position when surrender

is required. New Life begins with the complete

acceptance of what is – fully non-resistant

of the current life.

 

The New Life waits – move to the power

of its momentum and grace.

A key to living an Authentic, Purposeful Life is

finding meaning in our lives. I believe on both

a spiritual and human plane life is a quest for

meaning – a search for purpose – an answer

to the “why” of existence and in the end, this

answer, is a catalyst for infusing a sense

of mission into living. This meaning and

the resulting mission allows us to obtain

the most from life.

 

FINDING MEANING

Life without meaning is like taking a journey without

a destination; it is pointless because you will never

know if you have arrived. Knowing where you are

going and why you want to go is essential to a 

purposeful life. Infusing meaning and purpose

into your existence breathes energy and power

into your life.

 

Evolving this purpose into a “mission” – a strategic

plan for living, one that you live with passion,

dedication and complete focus is the true elixir

of life. This strategic plan or mission or quest

will enable you to get the maximum from life

and provide you joy and happiness from just

living.

 

This meaning and mission can be spiritual or life

driven – when both are blended together the power

of your commitment will enable you to move 

mountains – cocreate and manifest all you need

to succeed. Finding meaning and creating a mission

to lead the way – will also provide you the feedback 

needed to adjust your efforts.

 

Authentic, Purposeful Life is built on establishing

a mission infused with meaning, passion, and

desire – a mission beyond yourself but of yourself.

The inspired poem/affirmation below,

began as I was meditating, repeating

my favorite “mantra affirmation” –

I am a magnet…,(noted in blue below),

which expresses our natural, spiritual,

magnetic quality/capability to attract

good into our lives through aligned faith

and acceptance.

 

As I did, out of these words came a new

offshoot, growing into a  more expansive

expression – reminding me that -

"I have been before,  I am now, and will

be forever again.” I have chosen to offer

this poem, as recorded, as inspired,

allowing the verbal melody to sound

without edit.   

 

FOREVER AGAIN

I am a magnet

            for positive outcomes;

all good comes to me now;

            all of God

                 comes to me now;

forever I soar in the

            completeness of Good

                       connectiveness;

forever I thrive in the

            eternal, within the

                        infinite –

I am transcendent.

     I have been before –           

            I am now, I will

                  be forever again,

the days, the nights,

    the struggles, the insights

             awaken me, wash over me

                       this nectar of being:

I am ready and prepared

            to proceed, forward,

                           onward,

      full faithed and alive.

This week I am exploring the struggle, at least for

me, between “belief” and “fear”and feature some

Affirmative Thoughts and Meditation Notes that

I would like to share on these topics. I hope you

find them helpful.
 

My daily posts are all original and come, from

what I think of, as a number of inspired sources.

Most of the Affirmative Thoughts come from my

notes of love, or inspiration, I write for Ann each

morning. As I make her tea, I sit down and jot out

a quick note, in the few minutes while the tea brews. 

 

I try to focus on what may be happening in her life,

writing whatever comes to me without editing.

The notes have become more spiritual over the past

year. Ann loves the notes, looking forward to them

to start the day, so I rarely miss a morning. If we

are not together, I text the note to her. These are 

also turning out to be a good source of material

for the daily posts, although never intended to be.

 

Today’s post comes as a result of meditation  I have

had regarding a subject or topic. With nearly three

years commuting on the train, I have a large number

to choose from so they will usually not be hot off

the press.

 

I call these Meditation Notes and they come to me

when I ask for God’s guidance. I get a line or two

during the meditation and then reach for my journal,

and write out, in a stream of consciousness, without

editing.

 

The post below, resulting from a question I posed

to God to God during my morning meditation

on the train. In the spirit of the blog post theme

of the week, I thought I would get God’s up-to-date

guidance.

 

In deep meditation, as the train rumbled towards DC,

I asked, simply, “What is Belief,” and from the silence

my answer was - “Belief is Trust.” After a few more

questions I reached for my journal and wrote the

following note. I never really thought of belief as trust,

but after reading the passage, it makes prefect sense.

 

 BELIEF, TRUST, AND FAITH

Belief is trust – trust in God – trust in life – trust in yourself -

    trust in others - trust that you feel deeply, emotionally and fully.

    Belief centers on, knowing what you think and cocreate with

    God will manifest and become real. It is trust that positive

    consequences will result in the end, even if they are less

    than apparent now. Belief is trust in yourself, that you have

    the skills, abilities, and talents to actually make it happen.

 

Belief based in trust is the essence of faith. For to have faith

    you must suspend disbelief, fully trusting in the positive

    outcome. Faith is empowering and over powers any obstacle,

    challenge, or dis-ease that you are experiencing at this

    moment. Faith is truly, the “elixir of God,” and will intoxicate

    you with power, poise, and purpose. Faith will quiet your

    ego and fears, allowing you to securely take whatever leap

    of faith is required  at the moment.

 

In the end, fear is merely faith in negative consequences.

    Belief with trust is faith in the infinite, the ultimate, the

    always, and potential good that awaits.

           

 Trust in God! Trust in life! Trust in yourself and your

    faith will make you whole!

I believe each one of us, personally but also

collectively, are poised and capable to assist

our world’s evolution to a more cohesive,

functional, and much kinder, global family –

one where compassion and mutual respect

compel us all to reach out our hands in

cooperation, as our sights are set on creation,

rather than destruction.

 

The first step, based on my guidance, is for

each of us to enter “the Thickness” of

our mutual consciousness, armed with our

own personal imaginings of what this new

Earth might be like allowing our positive,

confident and constructive vision to create

a story so energized by our love and 

the belief that we change the very fabric

of the collective mind.

 

THE THICKNESS

Enter into the thickness of consciousness,

well aware of its aspects, its dimensions,

and its dilemmas – as you are fully immersed,

you are also dissolved, integrated, merged,

leaving boundaries unclear and destabilized –

for within separation, the distinction is self-

imposed, self-devised; all folding, sifting

into one thought, one essence, one perspective.

 

So, you must let go, give in, as you take in,

becoming one with the presence, whole,

vulnerable, attached, leaving behind what

was former existence; accepting the evidence

of expanded consciousness – one being

alive, afloat in the many, the multitudes –

here thought is the consensus, yet still,

perspectives, conflicts, and desires fail

to meld.

 

Realize that this journey, by its very nature,

is real - this quest requires preparation;

a strong heart, solid confidence in the

waves will bring all sorts of friends and foes,

personal or preconceived, to toss you about;

hopefully, in the end, emboldens you  

to break through and erupt into awareness.

Return frequently to the breath, prayer,

affirmations and God’s guidance and all

will be well, doable.

THE WORLD FRESH

Often, we must force ourselves

to see our world fresh – not from

preconceived associations and conditions

learned in moments of confusion or need,

but rather new, bursting with beauty and

wild wonder like a morning glory

on a sunlit summer fence.

 

Often, we must clear our eyes and minds

to sense our life fully – wiping away

the sleep of our lethargic awareness

until the dawn rips the horizon open

and we like the morning allow the light

to anoint our senses with fresh possibilities.

 

Often, we must refuse to go on and rather

stop in our worn tracks listening,

still at last, for the quiet voice of Divine

reason to catch our numb minds

and point us in a more vital direction.

SHEDDING

We must shed the skin

    of previous being, former

        lives, encrusted memories

rooted through tears

        and turmoil, plastered

            firm on waiting healthy

                prospective living, allowing

            these carnivals, Mardi Gras

        facades to crack, chip away,

dismantled piece by ache filled

        piece - to dislodge, unhinge,

            falling to oblivion, dust to

                dust, as fresh light calls

            forth the impeded imaginings,

        new life revealed, awakened,

            we stretch, once again, to be

                    transfigured, resurfaced, evolved.

POEM  BY G. 4.19.2016

 

Miscreant – noun; a person who

behaves badly. Adj; (of a person)

behaving badly or in a way that

breaks a law or rule.

 

As this poem offered shares,

the act of shedding is essential to

our spiritual growth, our emotional

well-being. Often we cart around

our miscreant moments (real or

perceived) from our past life, having

fastened them to our persona, causing

us to live through them, often unaware.

 

Personally, my miscreant moments

are stationed just below the radar

of my consciousness, not so politely

waiting for my guard to relax or wane,

and then surface - one calling

forth the next, until a Felliniesque parade

is summoned for my unwilling perusal

and consternation.  

 

Since these intrusions give power

and gravitas to an often distant past –

featuring a time, place, or people

well beyond any attempt of recompense

or reconciliation, our only recourse

is to consider mustering the courage

to formulate a workable strategy

for effective shedding.

 

Of course, our approach to shedding

will be acutely personal, impacted

by our perceived notion of our fault

or guilt or complicity – again, actual

or imagined – or in some instances,

our failure to pick up on the clues,

or to be fully aware or engaged.

 

To accomplish this shedding, it might

help to inventory what needs to be left

behind, scoping out each issue at its

core, then developing a personal ritual

for exorcising this memory going forward.

 

I am already envisioning a ritual bonfire

where I burn the relics, documents, or

mementos that represent my miscreant

memories, allowing my soul to move on

to more livable, fertile ground.

 

WITH LOVE, G.

THE DELICATE DANCE

I open the vision

where surrender meets

            intention,

where the two delicately

            dance, as if in

            mid-air propelled

            each alone, yet

            together, they cruise

            across the floorless inner sky:

back and forth, the leading –

            shifts – yet in moments

            of unpursued synchronicity,

            astounded, connected,

            one evolved until, again

the voices of reasonable

            doubt capture the moment,

focusing each on their distinctiveness,

            they unmingle, individuate,

separate for now, yet

            still somewhat connected.

torrent, noun. 1. a stream of water flowing

with great rapidity and violence. 2. a rushing,

violent, or abundant stream of anything.

3. a violent, tumultuous, or overwhelming flow.

 

We, the individual particles of humanity, 

on a macro level, flow torrentially; our streams 

of being inhabiting our earthly existence, 

stretching our sensibilities to become, to go 

beyond, to create, to evolve, to overcome

our propensity, our unbridled desire for

more of what is magnificent, as well as, 

potentially hazardous - our currents,

combined and solitary, create the great

ebb and flow, the tide of consciousness.

 

In essence, it is this torrent we must learn

to navigate, harnessing the very nature

of our natural momentum.

 

TORRENT

Nothing within our existence is stationary;

unchanging or static; rather, it is like a

spring torrent – rushing uncontained,

forming, then shifting, becoming again,

zestful, unhampered, or directed by what

was or what should be: and, so it is, with

each moment of life, appearing robust

then in pieces shattered, only to be restored,

formed, captured, and forgotten as swiftly

as it is generated profoundly once more;

and in this, with this torrent, we seek

to slow the pace, find a meaning, a common

thread, holding on for dear life, wishing for

stasis, when none exists, until, with reflection

and careful meditation, our pursuit of order

and control gives way to giving in, releasing,

an allowing, and we understand our place

in the motion and being of this torrent;

one not separate; contained; not impacted by –

we, the momentum rather than the moved.

OUR FLAKE 

Like the snow falling full flakes

outside the window, artful crystal

designs, each and everyone unique,

so we the watchers offer our

individual lives, magical, robust,

altering time and space with a

breath, a touch, a sense of being.

 

And as the flakes cover over winter

fields with white waves, motionless but

accumulating, together adrift, demanding

time and attention, we too gather strength

when joined together, as couples, lovers,

partners, families, teams, throngs,

communities, and nations.

 

Like the snow our flake of life

is never solitary, but one of many,

always connected, loved, a part

and parcel of life itself, surrounded

by others who love and cherish

our unique design.

There are those times when I look starkly at the world

and cringe. The mayhem seems so insurmountable,

and the spiritual revolution of renewal and human

evolution so distant. As expressed in the note below,

I shake my head and wonder at my, our, prospects.

 

But then I am reminded by all the others who are,

or who have for years, expressed a similar message

of transcendence and evolution through the reframing

of our connected, divinely human based,  

consciousness.

 

It was the cover article of  The Guide For Spiritual

Living – Science of Mind magazine, titled Creating 

Authentic Power, which features Gary Zukav, spiritual

activist, reminding us of the original concepts from

his landmark book published over 25 years ago –

Seat Of The Soul.

 

Gary reminds us that embarking on this new 

evolutionary path is, in reality, an individual 

effort, which is created by one person, or soul,

at a time. So for each of us, our work, our responsibility

is our own personal transformation, not necessarily

the world's. Zukav lays out a clear path to follow

in this article, assisting us in this effort.

 

So, for now, the only evolution we are required

to accomplish in this spiritual world is our own.

Let’s give it our full attention.   

 

FOCUSING OUR SIGHTS

Possibly in moments of quiet reflection,

our souls must comprehend the sheer

magnitude of our endeavors, knowing

every movement, each step, any forward

progress requires faith and commitment.

 

It is this faith we must endeavor to attend

to, especially during times of meager results,

when our efforts fail to create a noticeable

momentum, and hope wavers as we tire

from trying.

 

It is at exactly this trying time, we must

focus our sights , envisioning only full

success and total transcendence, allowing

no other thought to shake our foundation,

our belief in the good in route for our

partaking.

As spiritual beings living a three-dimensional life, 

I believe we are each present on earth with a spiritual

purpose or higher calling, we could also call this a mission.

Understanding this calling is the goal of spiritual living.

It took me 55 years of living, sometimes very hard living,

to discover my mission, and this was only finally realized

at the edge of death.

 

My mission now is to help others reveal their unique

spiritual purpose without all of the anguish, if possible. 

Ann’s need to reveal her spiritual purpose has become

more pronounced after the death of her friend and

spiritual advisor, who had definitely discovered and

lived his mission fully.

 

This was attested to by the thousands who attended his

funeral.

 

Below is the Divinely inspired note I wrote for Ann.

I hope it may also help others who are also searching.

 

THE TRUTH 

Today let us seek the truth about ourselves –

what we need to reveal that we have not

revealed – what is in our heart of hearts we

need to be accomplishing, contributing,

empowering to transform ourselves and

our world.

 

Today let us see the truth about our lives –

are they being lived with lasting purpose,

Divine purpose, or are we living too timidly

or safely – afraid to create waves and rock

the boat – avoiding pushing for more and

settling for the mundane?

 

Today let us see the truth and know there

is more intended, more expected –

stretching our capabilities and reaching

for our full potential.

FINDING YOUR WAY

Finding your way in the world takes 

    perseverance and foresight –

clearly knowing what it is you desire, 

    clarifying your intentions, and then 

laying out a plan to make it all

    become a reality.

 

Finding your way in the world takes 

    initiative – being prepared to embark

on bold new ventures – the willingness 

    to move beyond doubt, fear, or confusion

and into the clarity and the firmness

    of will, fully one with the creation

of your purpose and mission.

 

Finding your way in the world takes 

    fortitude – the mental strength needed 

to endure adversity when common sense 

    says otherwise – to accept nothing

but your dream realized and accomplished.

NO NEED TO BE TIMID

There is no need to be timid when

you know you are on the right path –

when you have the right answer –

the solution that is needed  - instead

assert yourself and ensure you

have been heard.

 

There is no need to be timid when

you are ready and able to lead the way,

see clearly what needs to be accomplished

and have a plan for bringing it to life.

 

There is no need to be timid when

you have the answer – have the abilities

and skills to turn it into a viable solution –

without concern or fear of failure.

 

There is no need to be timid today,

so be prepared to move forward in

your preferred direction – pushing

past the confusion of others as you

improve life for all concerned.

METTLE MOMENTS

Often life requires of us more than we

feel prepared to deliver, yet someway,

somehow, we reach within to discover

an ability, a talent, perhaps a patience,

or a forgotten strength that has been

mysteriously summoned to usable

awareness.

 

These are the moments that test our

mettle, moments that make our hands

shake and our hearts race, yet it is

precisely these moments that frame

our stories, add luster to our memories,

and define our emotional legacy.

 

So, as these moments erupt, and erupt

they will, keep these thoughts in mind,

as the tempest swells and spins, open

heart and soul to the task at hand, know,

in time, the seas will calm and the storm

will abate, as all returns to a steady state.

SUSTAINABLE ACTION

Grasp the importance of balance today –

maintaining a subtle equilibrium

between and within all facets of your life –

restoring order when needed by establishing

parameters, setting priorities, ensuring

well-being through the careful allocation

of resources.

Once established and set, attend to your

state of balance frequently - assessing

carefully, knowing it is within your best

interest to ensure equilibrium - refusing

to allow disorder to generate stress,

lack of focus, or loss of tranquility.

Know fully that balanced living,

and working will enable you to achieve

your goals through sustainable action -

ably applying just the right amount of effort,

imagination, and commitment to produce

the optimal outcome, a life worth living.

THE OBSERVER

Clear your mind today, allowing it to be

like a blank canvas or, better yet, a movie

screen curving to incorporate the periphery

of your visual landscape, with eyes closed

tight notice the impressions, light and dark

shadows appear, fade, and reform.

 

As you open your eyes slowly, realize

the depth, the palette of form, color, and

dimension, its order, and completeness,

as the vision fills your inner screen with

the projection of actual life experienced.

 

Notice this optical miracle; you the

observer, the experiencer of the

wonder, the reflector of creation,

the true consciousness of the universe,

the expression of allness, understand

your significance: refusing ever to

belittle your importance, your role

in this existence.

n0tion - a vague idea in which some

      confidence is placed.

 

We each have a notion about our lives,

a premise based on a concept or belief,

maybe just a vague idea as conveyed in

the definition shared above, more often

an ego-based assessment of what is

actually occurring in our existence. 

We layer these notions into a workable

theory, and through actual experience,

we acquire subjective empirical evidence

to give it a basis in truth.

 

We squint our mind's eye in our spiritual

pursuits and attempt the same undertaking. 

Personally, I am forever envisioning

the perfectly orchestrated world of

God-consciousness ordered and sound.

As the note below conveys, the inspired

messages I receive often follow suit.

 

What is your notion?

 

PERFECT ORDER

Today let us look through what appears

to be, to what really is, realizing beneath

the seeming confusion is a world of Divine

order with each moment and event perfectly

placed and unfolding.

 

Today let us accept and trust this order

knowing only graceful good waits for our

partaking – well beneath the surface of

our fears or doubts flow the stream

of peace and calm – placidly serene.

 

Today let us embrace this perfect order

allowing it to set in tranquil motion all our

undertakings – each salient expectation –

inspiring our untapped creative essence

as we are gently guided towards our

full unfolding.

What if we could see the world the way that

God would perceive it? In the Affirmative

Thought below, we pose the question and

speculate on what would be on God’s mind

and how would God feel? 

 

Would God be focused on compassion,

love, kindness, or something else?

 

AS GOD WOULD SEE IT                                                      

Today let us see the world –

     our world – as God would see it – 

    alive with infinite possibility

and potential – abundant and ripe

    for further creation and evolution –

beautiful and wondrous without measure.

 

Today let us see the world,

    through God’s mind and emotion –

full of compassion, full of love,

     full of kindness.

 

Today let us reach for God,

    with the hands of God,

forgiving those who are struggling

    emotionally, mentally, physically,

or spiritually; and through love,

     assist them with their

realignment and return to joy.

Today, as I was preparing to begin my morning

ritual of spiritual reading and meditation, I decided

that I would reach into my archives of unpublished

Affirmative Thoughts and let the universe pick

the theme for today's post.  

 

I picked out the Affirmative Thought published

below titled Let Go And Let God. It is often

startling to see how the themes of the past are still

very much current today. I read it over and set it

aside to see what developed during my meditation.

 

A new addition to my morning devotion is to go

into one of my own journals, where I have

recorded the Meditation Guidance I received,

relating it to my life today.  I picked a journal

and opened it up to the Meditation Guidance below

titled The Way Has Been Prepared. 

 

I quickly realized that the randomly selected

Affirmative Thought and this Meditation Guidance

were related, with the  guidance presenting  

the problem and the thought offering the solution.

Both underscored my continuing challenge with 

this spiritual mission I have accepted and now live -

the feeling that I am often in this alone and have to

make it happen on my own.

 

I am grateful for the reminder that I need to dream

a better dream, have confidence in what I am doing,

trust in God that the way has truly been prepared,

and then to fully let go and let God. 

 

LET GO AND LET GOD

Today “let go and let God” releasing the reins

of control and asking God to assist with the

day-to-day issues you encounter – letting God

guide you and work through you, uncovering

the optimal solution for all involved.

 

Today “let go and let God,” asking God for

direction and listening for guidance in the

signs, sounds, events, and coincidences of

your life –watching as the doors open and

the opportunities are revealed.

 

Today “let go and let God,” surrendering the

need to go it alone and instead join forces

with your Divine assistance and begin again

to cocreate your peaceful existence, your

stress-free life, your heaven on earth.

Let Go And Let God!

AT  BY G. 7.26.2011

 

THE WAY HAS BEEN PREPARED

The dream you should be dreaming is one of strength,

one of courage, a dream reflecting your true nature –

your true potential. Cleanse and clear away the fear,

the doubt, the past mistakes, and replace it with the

joyous harmony of all that waits in possibility.

 

Know you have the power to dream this dream

for yourself and others, but instead,  you wallow

in the graveyard of the past, tossing the remains

around and looking for forgiveness. Know now,

today, and forever that you are and always have

been forgiven – forgive yourself. Learn to love

yourself more –completely - and then you will 

know what this means – what an expression

of love involves.

 

Stop working so hard at doing, and spend more

time dreaming, envisioning. Never attempt to force

the solution; instead, allow it to greet you when it

arrives. Your very actions spell disbelief – a lack

of trust in God’s effort on your behalf. Dream –

see it all, call it forth from your Soul, and

hear the guidance.

 

Find again the passion – the joy in simply being –

cocreating with God. Be willing to start small –

to fit into the future that waits and grow it with love,

passion, and enthusiasm. Offer your gifts, and they

will be received, trusting in God’s support and love.

The way has been prepared.

FRUSTRATION’S RECONNAISSANCE

Frustration occurs when reality conflicts

with expectations, when outcomes fail to

materialize, when the hoped-for morphs

into the uncalled-for, when visions blur

and desires contend, reflecting the antithesis

of wishes, dreams, reflections, and even

prayers.

 

At these times, confusion and bewilderment

rage like a fire across a dry forest; dumbfounded

we assess our damage, berate our intelligence,

dismay at the research and apparent thinking

that has forged our choices, energized our

actions, only to result in heartfelt frustration.

 

Yet, does this turmoil not provide a message,

a spark of reconnaissance worthy of proper

reflection, perhaps even the gem of insight

required to shift our strategy, reformulate

our paradigm, clearing the way for a more

profitable and workable solution going

forward – a spark of genius.

From time to time, we must all ask ourselves

the question of whether we are diligently planting 

the seeds of positive, authentic life in our 

consciousness, preparing for the harvest of our 

abundance and prosperity.

  

I transcribed the guidance below as I struggled

with the recuperation from back surgery. 

At that time, I am sure I was not focused

on a harvest but rather on survival.  I did my

duty, recorded the note, and forgot about it in

my journal.

 

Last night, while working on the book,

I came across this note again titled Harvest

Of Life. I was transfixed by the note, and its

wonderful analogy, succinctly describing 

the consciousness work we all must do in

order to be fully authentic in this world. 

 

We are all growing and harvesting our

consciousness in every moment. If we

have planted the seeds of a positive life

in our minds, the results are ours to harvest -

prosperity, peace of mind, love, and happiness -

if not, we must return to our garden and plant

our precious seeds once more. For there is

always another moment to farm again. 

 

HARVEST OF LIFE - MEDITATION GUIDANCE

The harvest is ready to reap – full and lush

from tender toil – from loving care – strong

and healthy – ready to be the fruit of your

enjoyment – to fill your storage bins with

plenty for the long winter ahead.

 

Knowing this is the way – to plant a seed within

your creative thought - to care for it – water

and weed – watch it grow – protect it from

the ego and the opinions of others. Watch it

grow and visualize it as strong, healthy, and

prosperous – ready to be the substance of

real life and real form.

 

In the fields of your thought, you alone are

the farmer and you alone can ensure growth

by keeping thoughts of lack, not, and error

from impacting your creation – ruining your

work and destroying your harvest. You have

mastered the rules of growing form, and you

can bring your harvest to share and enjoy

with the world.

 

Understand - as you view the lush fruit of

your labor and the pure miracle of creation

unfolding,  you have been the artist of plenty,

and through your thoughts and patience,

will now feed yourself, your family, your

community, and the world.

 

Take the sickle in hand – prepare the laborers –

fill the trucks of life and enjoy the fruits of

your labor – the harvest of life.

felt thanks for the sentient life we now enjoy –

grateful for the delicate thread that stitches

vital, wondrous form - a Divine thread sowing

a myriad of possibilities and situations into

TRUE THANKS

Let us turn our thoughts towards gratitude

today, knowing even our most jubilant thanks

falls short of the true worth of this being,

this existence - no momentary, or even

lasting concern casts a shadow upon this,

our very aliveness.

As we prepare to give thanks, feasting

on our very abundance, let us recall that

we are the hands and feet of the Divine

based good in the world, recommitting

ourselves to our scared promise,

to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.

So let us look for our opportunity to

return our favor - an act of random

kindness, a gesture of goodwill, a hand

outstretched in a time of need, a word

of endearing encouragement - knowing

true thanks is best expressed with action

in a world so in need of our compassion.

     we accept others and ourselves

THESE TUMBLING TIMES

When we tumble, we see the world

around us from different perspectives,

from different vantage points, upside

down and backward, askance, askew,

off-center - by doing so, often, the thoughts

in our heads jumble, creating fresh ideas

not yet considered.

 

It is exactly at these tumbling, jumbling,

times when we must be most observant,

vigilant to pluck, keep, or cull these

gestational gifts – tenderly setting

each notion aside for more thorough

consideration, examination, later.

 

And when we do, let us be sure

to handle these gems with due respect,

trying each on for proverbial size

and style, be sure to give the

gift horse a trial ride, realizing the

forces that be may see an opportunity

waiting in the wings!

PASSION IGNITED

Step forward and into the destiny

that awaits, full and delicious, no

delicate offering, instead, large

portions of pleasurable life, with

each dish an aroma so appealing

our senses are startled by desire.

 

Faced with our birthright,

the culmination of a journey often

without reason, yet now, we see

the merit, the purpose, all that is

necessary is our robust participation,

a soulful affirming.

 

With this metamorphosis, endowed

with singular wherewithal, no call

to action ever shirked or cautiously

impeded; our steps are bolder, fuller,

deeper; our place in life more complete

and considered - our passion ignited

Sometimes my guidance leads

me to a message I have already

received, recorded in my journal,

but have failed to notice or fully

comprehend. This is the case

with the poem offered below from

November of 2014, on the surface,

at least provides a poetic description

of the thought-based cocreation process.

 

THOUGHT INTO BEING

Tangible existence molded

        into form by firm intention,

            powered by imaginative vision,

        a process of unfolding, being,

    total restoration of a singular

idea expressed, finding form,

    through conscious cooperation,

        the creator and the creation,

            the baker and the oven,

                the smith and the cauldron,

                meet in perfect harmonic unison,

            as the glass-blowers breath travels

        the tube, finding expression,

    breath in the molten sand, thick        

glowing liquid expands,

    expiration intent on becoming,

        life-giving way to what was not

           before, yet now, in transparent

        splendor is viable, intact, artful

thought bursting into being.

SOUL ON FIRE WITH GRACE

Lord, hold me firm in your love,

      grasp me and shake me awake,

wipe the sleep of a thousand

      years from my eyes so I can

see again, be again.

 

Lord, hold me firm in your love,

      breathe the breath of creation

into my lungs and make me

      whole again – alive in the

wonder of the Divine within,

      a soul on fire with grace,

a spirit bursting, evolving,

      becoming you, infinite life,

infinite love, one with all creation.

 

Lord, hold me firm in your love,

      a womb of love – nourishing –

nurturing – protected, enveloped

      by the fluid of creation alive.

 

Lord, know I walk the crystal path –

      I see the headlights,

knowing full well the end,

      accepting the beginning,

all is as it must be, should be,

      is meant to be - alive in you.

UNFOLDING

I unfold you, Lord.

I unfold you in the spirit

of your beauty,

perfectly formed,

waiting to be revealed,

the essence of love is dramatic,

powerful in the giving of life,

purposeful in the birth of creation,

I reveal you, Lord,

layer by layer,

only to find

my soul within.

accouterments – noun: personal

clothing, accessories, or equipment;

trappings.

 

This morning, out on my deck as the Fall

unfolds, I opened my journal to the poem

featured here titled This Chest. Well, here

it is years later, and I still have the chest

referred to in the poem.

 

Perhaps, you also have a chest that you drag

around with you. For me, sometimes it is

difficult to differentiate between my dreams,

my often self-centered longings, and my,

hopefully, positive, authentic mission.

 

Maybe my chest actually encloses all of these,

and more: the contents are shaped into an

ever-expanding ball of  yarn created from

life’s remnants – its hopes, its frustrations,

its struggles, its deep desires, as well as,

its dreams, its purposes – all parading

in a multitude of colors and textures,

all vying for attention.

 

As I write, I realize that the chest may

not be the problem, but an opportunity,

an accouterment of sorts, holding

the clues  needed for a more productive

and positive life. So rather than stow

the chest, I need to open it up and

rediscover what it may have to convey. 

 

OK, I can do this.

 

THIS CHEST 

In the perfect peace

    of this tranquil morning,

        I seek nourishment,

    as we sit together

        watching life unfold;

why do I persist in

    dragging this chest

        around with me,

    I have no explanation;

just a desire to be

        free of it, of the me

            who will not give up

        the longings – these

desires to be more.

I would like to share some guidance

I received  in response to my morning

prayer and meditation session.

 

I was instructed to read the meditation

guidance below aloud until  I fully believed

it and incorporated it into my life. Now, as I

read it aloud I can still hear my ego exclaim -

"how could this be true - what about all

those things we need, what about this,

what about that ....?"

 

As I attempted to calm my ego I realize this

simple statement strikes truly at the heart

of enlightenment. If my enlightenment, my

heaven on earth requires this or that, it is

not true enlightenment - just the ego's

co-opting of the concept.

 

As I was struggling with this concept, I

read the following passage from Thich

Nhat Hanh, summing up again this

basic truth.

 

This spot where you sit is your own spot.

It is on this very spot and in this very

moment that you can become enlightened.

You don't have to sit beneath a special tree

in a distant land.

 

Enlightenment is truly available at any

moment, here, now, on this spot where God

and grace exists. This I feel is a basic spiritual

truth, which I understand and accept logically,

I just need to get my ego to cooperate.

 

Read the statement below out loud and see

what this or that your ego may be requiring,

before allowing you to attain enlightenment.  

 
 

RIGHT AND PERFECT NOW

My life is right and perfect now – no need for

alteration, rearrangement, or reconfiguration.

My life now is a blossom of intention, glorious

in its beauty, magnificent, lush, and fully

capable of offering all the happiness, all the

joy, all the peace, and love, I could ever desire.

 

Let me put an end to my striving and flourish

instead within the garden I now am blessed

to inhabit. Let me lift the vale of the ego’s

future living, open my eyes and heart and

mind to this very moment, this very now

where God and grace wait for my awakening.

Let me be fully alive in this moment now,

yearning only to touch its heaven on earth.

I reach back to September of 2011 to feature

below a previously unpublished note titled

Envision Life. I feel this is a practice that I need

to master. Honestly, even after studying the greats

of New Thought mind control - Mulford, Atkinson,

Wattles, Larson, Neville, Troward, and Holmes,

to name but a few, I feel my talents in this area

are but remedial.

 

Many of us roll our eyes at the thought of actually

envisioning and attracting into our lives what

we want through strong intention and faith.

At the same time, we marvel at the greats who

have done just that to improve the world and

enrich their own lives. On the flip side, how

many of us spend our waking hours in constant

contemplation of scarcity, lack, suffering, and

loss, only to be taken down by our own focus.

 

It is time to use our cocreative powers to envision

a better life for ourselves and humankind. Yes,

if you think this is brainwashing you are correct,

but I assure the skeptic, after a true assessment

of our errant thought patterns, our brains may

truly benefit from a scrubbing. Chapter Eleven of

Finding God On The Train – The Book , offered on

the right hand sidebar of the blog as it is written,

titled Mind Control Approaches and Techniques,

covers the art of envisioning in-depth.

 

So, let us use our thoughts to sculpt and improve

our lives. To grab reality and mold it in our favor.

 

ENVISION LIFE

Think it, hear it, see it, touch it, be it

fully in your imagination to cocreate

your dreams through God’s infinite

love and power.

 

Imagine every detail, every aspect with

the fuel of your love and desire. Live

within your imaginings until it feels real

and becomes your reality.

 

Breathe in the life air of this new creation

until your envisioning  takes shape like a

sculptor’s art – caress its lines, memorize

its movement, fuel it with life – a living,

vibrant envisioning, clear and perfect in

its power.

 

Every moment you have, move back into

your envisioning, your imagining and

resume your life within, savor the sensual

experience and believe in its reality.

 

Never question, never doubt, only believe

in the possibility – envisioning until it takes

form in the reality of your life.

 

Envision through imagining the new life,

the new purpose, the new goals, never

doubting – only experiencing fully.  

 

Envision with love – strong desire –

feel the emotion – the happiness and joy

this vision gives you, until, it is completely

framed in the reality of form – given life

by your empowered, loving vision.

I received a response to one of my posts on joy

that said I was trying much too hard to manifest

joy in my life. Is joy something we obtain or realize? 

This discussion brings me to a Meditation Note

titled Surrender. What if we were just to stop

seeking and surrender to the joy already existing

in our lives? To surrender connotes that we give

up internal and external struggles and trust in God.

I admit, I still have a way to go on this and my

meditation notes often reveal my need for guidance.

 

JOYFUL SURRENDER

Surrender to the flow of God even when it appears

counter intuitive. Surrender to the solution that has

been prepared for you – the positive outcome that

awaits. Trust in God to lead you through the challenge

and find a solution. Focus on this line and repeat it

to yourself as you struggle with your own mind.

 

I am whole and ready to receive

                                  the full grace of God!

 

Lift up your eyes unto God - let the burden slip away

and know that God is with you waiting for you to open

your mind to the possibility of a fearless life. Shake

the fear and move on for it is only a sign of lack of faith.

 

With each challenge find your mantra “I am whole”

and focus on this line as you turn the situation over

to God. All good awaits – do not be afraid or afflicted.

You are protected by your own strength and the

strength of God. Clear the way for the manifestation.
