This is Part VI of a six part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please see my previous entries of 02/12/07 for Part I, of 02/14/07 for Part II, of 02/19/07 for Part III, of 02/21/07 for Part IV and of 02/26/07 for Part V.

Be assured that if you follow anyone other than your Self, you will surely get lost.

Take the time to really “listen” to your Self and all will become crystal clear.

Below are a few phrases that will help you to keep your focus clear in this regard:

God/Goddess loves you no matter what because in doing so, He/She loves Him/Herself.

Don’t take your life’s experiences personally, these experiences are not who you ARE! They are just steps on your path to Awakening! You ARE so much more!

Hang in there! You CAN do it! And actually you ARE doing it!

Trust the process and Trust your Self!

Fear is the ultimate illusion. Empowerment the ultimate truth!

It’s all a series of conclusions about a series of delusions.

When you appreciate something, you allow yourself to fully receive it!

Rather than “making the best of it,” “make it the best!”

Love is being unconditionally present for yourself and another!

Make your Life a Meditation, not a Race; Proceed at the Speed of Grace and Trust.

In conclusion I would like to share a channeled passage from Kryon:

There seems to be so much sorrow on the planet. Can you work within the framework of the test before you? Can you put on your armor and shields of sacredness and walk through the sorrow, fear and disappointment of what other Humans have done, without
judgment of them or without being discouraged? The more light you carry, the more you will see that which is sorrowful on Earth. Only the masters can "see" these things as reasonable within the scheme of why you're here. It is important that the Lighthouses are not distracted by the storms as they shine their lights. Otherwise, they become useless.

So, it is so, so important to not let your ego determine the perspective you have on the experiences you or others are having.

Please remember to go into meditation regularly and quiet your mind and open your heart so that you might allow the wisdom, love and light of your Higher Self to illuminate and reveal the path before you!

May you dwell Peace!

The gift that suffering bestows upon us is that it teaches us how to become Masters of Love!

This is Part V of a six part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please see my previous entries of 02/12/07 for Part I, of 02/14/07 for Part II, of 02/19/07 for Part III and of 02/21 for Part IV.

So, when you can unconditionally accept everything and everyone, you have learned the ultimate lesson of what Love is all about. It is in this state of acceptance that the illusions of lack, insufficiency, fear, and inadequacy all disappear and the reality of your beauty, majesty, wisdom, power and eternal value become very clear and bright.

All that you previously interpreted with your ego’s eyes as failure and “suffering” is now seen as just steps leadings you out of the illusion of your separateness and aloneness and instead into the realms of Oneness, Light and Love that your Higher Self or Soul dwells in eternally.

Even the Awakened One, the Buddha, proclaimed:

But once all this “suffering” is seen as the illusion that it really is, then the true Light of who you really are finally awakens within you and then you can own, know, integrate and embody it in a way that it becomes you and you become IT.

So, let go of your ego’s desire to have things always go your way, i.e. the way you “think” they should.

Let go of the need to hold onto things that are already as you desire so they will continue to be what you want. Believe me, they never will remain the same. The only constant in this universe is “change.”

Let go of trying to control others, you never will!

Let go of your fears, projections and defenses.

Let go of the need to make others wrong or right or to judge them.

Just dwell in the Light of your Soul by sitting in meditation and all will be revealed to you! “Be still and know!” Listen to the “still, small voice within!” It will lead you to your Self.

This is Part IV of a six part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please see my previous entries of 02/12/07 for Part I, of 02/14/07 for Part II and of 02/19/07 for Part III.

Love is not an emotion; it is a state of being. It is a state of acceptance and profound understanding. It sees all experiences with the heart of unconditionality and it knows that all is in Divine Order and that all is moving towards the Highest Good.

Love from the ego has emotions attached. Love from the soul, does not. That's what it's all about: learning how to develop the "detached," "impersonal," and "open" heart. The heart and mind that are free from the fears, illusions and false beliefs that distort reality.

Many equate the word love with the human emotion that many mistake as and for love. Unconditional Love is a state of being and not an emotion. It is a stable, harmonious and balanced state through which there can be no judgment, no fear, no indecision, and no uncertainty. It is a pure state of acceptance, trust and knowing.

This state of love is not a denial of reality, but rather an acceptance and true appreciation of it! It is an understanding that all of life is an eternal journey into a greater and greater ability to love, appreciate and embrace more and more of one’s experiences!

This is Part III of a six part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please see my previous entries of 02/12/07 for Part I and of 02/14/07 for Part II.

Our purpose here on this planet is not to acquire information and “things,” but to learn how to really love. And so when we are at our lowest and yet are still able to reach up to love and reach out for love, we then truly will have mastered what Love is all about. For by reaching out for love, we shed light into the darkness. We turn chaos into order. We transform lead into gold. We truly tap into the essence of love and become the Master Alchemist! We turn all our “suffering” or our illusions into gold!

If in the depths of despair you seek Love’s guidance and surrender fully to its tender embrace, then truly you have learned what it means to have “Love” and that knowing will remain with you and continue to grow within you throughout eternity. But if, on the other hand, you just make love an intellectual exercise, you learn nothing about love and are left empty and unfulfilled.

So, when your body is not functioning well, but you can still love it, you have learned what it means to love unconditionally.

So, when your best friend or lover has left you and yet you can still love yourself, you have learned how to truly love yourself.

So, when you financial situation has bottomed out, but you can still appreciate the wonder and beauty of life and of yourself and still know that you are good and can thrive, you have learned what it means to love.

And when another has harmed you and you can still love them and yourself, truly you have learned what love is.

This is Part II of a six part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please see my previous entry of 02/12/07 for Part I.

We create our reality. Everything that “happens to us” is part of a master plan or blueprint that is helping us to “become,” grow and heal in ways that will truly allow us to develop and manifest all the potential within us. Truly, all is in Divine Order and Divine Timing and as we learn to look at our experiences through the eyes and heart of our Soul and not through the myopic vision of our ego, we get to see the bigger picture and put it all into proper context and perspective.

It is our Soul that is leading us into the experiences that It knows will help us to truly come to know who we really are in the quickest and, believe it or not, the least painful way possible. Whether we presently get it or not, what looks, to our ego, like a long and torturous path, is really the shortest route to a true understanding and picture of who we really are.

Seeing our experiences through our Soul’s perspective will lead us away from where our limited awareness is presently focused to an unlimited, eternal and infinite vision of who we really are and will put into perspective why we are experiencing what we are experiencing.

So, it is those who have experienced the greatest sense of loss and suffering in their lives who have risen to the greatest heights and depths of wisdom and love.

This is Part I of a six part blog,

The gift that suffering bestows upon us is that it teaches us how to become Masters of Love!

That which we call “suffering” is an experience we create for ourselves so that we can refine or increase our ability to love ourselves, love another and love the whole of the creation. When we “suffer” we ultimately feel abandoned and alone. As well, we feel that we are unworthy and unlovable. But all of this is just the ultimate illusion, an illusion that has us believing that we are somehow separate from God/Goddess and somehow undeserving of His/Her love.

We are meant to have dominion over all the creation. But that dominion is not one of “possession,” but it is a dominion of love. It is the dominion of one who is the caretaker and caregiver. It is not a dominion of “the hording of things,” but it is a stewardship of caring for all. And the way that we earn that dominion is to be more and more able to love, appreciate and embrace it all.

But how does one learn to “love/appreciate” it all.

Most of us believe that suffering is something that is inflicted upon us by an outside force. Whether it is illness, financial ruin, relationship issues, natural or human-made disasters, etc., we see ourselves as a “victim” of circumstances.

The problem with this way of looking at the experiences you are having is that by seeing yourself as a “victim,” you are giving away your ownership of the situation and are therefore, giving away your “power” to change it.

This is Part VIII of an eight part blog. In order to understand and make best use of what follows, please go back and read Parts I, II, III, IV, V, VI & VII on 01/15/07, 01/17/07, 01/22/07, 01/24/07, 01/29/07, 01/31/07 and 02/05/07 respectively.

Some More Phrases to Read, Feel and Visualize, con’t:

XIX.
I am free.
I am whole.
I am one.
I am free to receive and give.
I am good.
I am worthy.
I release my limiting memories, fears, and feelings; I bless them for what they have taught me.
I am truly blessed.

So, work or “play” with these phrases. Certainly make up more of your own. As you do this you will be tilling the soil of your soul and planting and nurturing the “seeds of greatness” that are within you.

We are so much more than we “think” we are. In other words we are so much more than what our limited programming allows us to believe we are. We are “gods and goddesses in training” as Deepak Chopra has written.

Or as I am wont to say: “We are chips off the old holographic block called God/Goddess who have come forth to embody the Divine in finite, three dimensional form.” We are truly made in His/Her Image.
