It may not look like much right now,
but It feels like much,
doesn't it?
You have to trust (t)His Feeling beyond feelings, this Primal Feeling.
You are re-familiarizing yourself with this Peace that you thought was impossible until your prayer was answered.
You keep closing your heart and looking,
waiting for a reason to open your heart,
or to keep it open.
But the reasons come after you open.
The answered prayer comes after you open.
And you will close back up a million times today.
But each time is an opportunity to notice and open again,
knowing that, 'When I'm open, I am That. It is here. It is done, already'.
This is the Way.
Can you remain open while holding this Joy,
allowing this Joy to hold you open?
Let those words go past your mind.
Let them go past 'you',
as Joy is holding you open for everything that's meant for you.
I Love you,

They let themselves be imbued, and passed through by this soul. They captured its energy in order to keep it inside themselves, and learn to carry it in life. They used this energy to heal the sick. The Virgin was particularly gifted at making this energy descend into her abdomen, and at keeping it for a very long time. She would say,
"What is essential is not finding the Light, but being in the Light, and keeping it within.
The technique also consisted in calling upon the Angel of joy, drawing joy inside oneself, and, finally, transmitting it in purity." - Mary, the Essene VirginWhat is essential is not finding the Light but being in the Light and keeping It within.
"From the Place of Light I came forth, from you, Bright Habitation.
I come to touch hearts, to measure and try all minds, to see in whose heart I dwell.
Whoever thinks of me, of him I think; whoever calls my Name, his name I will call.
Whosoever prays my prayer from the earth, his prayer I will offer from the Place of Light." - The Canonical Prayer Book of the Mandeans -
Relax...
into your Self,
into this (eternal) Moment,
into the season, in your life.
I know you're ready to be seen,
to be revealed,
to be found,
to be elevated,
to be loved the way you love.
I know.
But you have to let God reveal you.
You have to remain quiet,
still on the inside,
Loving without an object,
present without a body,
without any other intention than,
God, let me be Me, without me.
Please accept me.
I Love you,

When you have felt the fear fully say, I am ready to move through my fear now Father, please help me. And be willing to receive the help you asked for. You will receive the help you asked for. When you ask for help you acknowledge that there's a power greater than your fear. You also indicate your desire to work with that fear and conflict in your life. When you ask for help recognize that you're asking that your thoughts be changed. So affirm this-Father I'm willing to change my mind about this situation. Please help me see this not through the eyes of fear but as you see it. Help me see this with equal love for myself and all other. This is a powerful prayer. Stay with it. Rest in its strength and its peace. And let God answer you in every word, every gesture and every action."- Paul Ferrini, Loving Without Conditions

You have to find this Love every morning,
as if you've never found It before.
You have to find Love every moment,
as if you've never practiced before,
every single seeming moment,
you have to hit that reset button.
You have to become conscious again.
You're always either unconscious or conscious,
unenlightened or enlightened,
not feeling Love or feeling Love,
carrying baggage or not.
Recognizing that there is no baggage to put down.
Nothing to let go of.
No one to forgive.
Nothing to do.
And yet, things get done.
And people and situations are forgiven.
But it's all happening through you by the Christ in You.
I Love You

"Allow My healing force to pour through your hands. Then shall all the Glory of the Father be a living fire about you. Nothing that happens in the outer realm shall penetrate that holy flame. You shall dwell as a thing set apart, even as one of the candles in the Holy temple shall you be guarded. As you express the Life of your being to all you meet, great floods of power shall pour into you again, and you shall walk and not be weary, run and faint not.
So open yourself, cleanse yourself, that I, the Lord of your soul, shall manifest My Glory through you, My human vessel of expression." - Eva Bell Werber, Voice of the Master"And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting."
- Acts 2:2"You are the notes, and we are the flute.
We are the mountain, you are the sounds coming down.
We are the pawns and kings and rooks you set out on a board: we win or we lose.
We are lions rolling and unrolling on flags.
Your invisible wind carries us through the world" - Rumi"What I thought was me is not me and only That (substance) is me." - Herb Fitch

Right now you're aware of one of your bodies speaking,
and another one of your bodies listening.
Right now, some of your bodies are walking down the street outside.
Some of your bodies are in offices already.
Some of your bodies are in traffic.
Some of your bodies are still sleeping.
Some are just rising,
some are seated in meditation right now,
eyes closed in a cave.
They've been there for decades, centuries, aeons,
in the Himalayas.
Some are chanting,
some are crying,
some of your bodies are singing,
some are doing yoga.
You're the Love that they're meditating in,
the Love they're meditating on.
You're the Love they're walking through,
the love They're walking on.
The ground you're standing on is Holy.

And I am the fire, and I am the forest
And I am a witness watching it
I stand in a valley watching it" -Burning Hill by Mitski"Give a specific period to this each day, and do not let yourself watch for results. In due time, fruitage will appear in some form of harmony within yourself, your home, your family, or your business, art, or profession.
As fruitage appears, raise your consciousness to take in the weather, elections, national, and international relationships. Remember that none of these subjects enters your thought while in meditation. You may not even think of peace on earth. Just be still. Listen with the invisible ear for the inaudible Word. You are thus ushering in the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
All power is in the hands of the Infinite, the Eternal, and it operates through grace. How do you make this come true? By knowing it. This truth cannot make you free without you knowing it." - Joel Goldsmith, The Government of Eden"Blessed are the man and the woman
who have grown beyond their greed and have put an end to their hatred and no longer nourish illusions.
But they delight in the way things are
and keep their hearts open, day and night.
They are like trees planted near flowing rivers, which bear fruit when they are ready.
Their leaves will not fall or wither.
Everything they do will succeed." - Psalm 1"Whenever feeling downcast, each person should vitally remember, 'For my sake, the entire world was created." -Baal Shem Tov
-
As long as you're hearing This,
feeling This,
being This,
This is all that manifests.
This is all you see--
His Original Creation.
You are seeing more and more of It.
"You are the son of the richest man."*
You are not a beggar.
You are a King, a Queen.
That's not a begging bowl in those hands.
Those hands are stretched out to Bless,
not to receive blessings.
You are the Blessing.

"The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.â -Numbers 6:24-26 NIV
"Listen and be still! If you could see and know the physical person of Christ Jesus, could go to those who are sick or in need of any kind; if you could see those Holy Hands upraised in healing, how firm would be your faith. But listen, that same Christ is within your consciousness; the Holy Spirit pervades all things. So can you not have the same faith, that when you speak to Him, He hears, just as He did when in the body of flesh? The body had nothing to do with it. It was only the instrument for the Divine flow of Life, even as you are the instrument. As you open your being to this sweet consciousness of the Abiding Christ, even so shall the greater works, long ago promised, be fulfilled through you." - Eva Bell Werber, Quiet Talks with the Master

Pretend you're standing in front of a window with a clear view out at a mountainous forest. It's a gorgeous day. The colors are vibrant and crisp. Now, shift your attention to your reflection in the window. The view is still there, but now it's in the background, and your reflection is in the foreground. Even if there was a war outside your window, it would be no more difficult to become aware of your reflection... of your innate Peace, that's also present. No matter what's on view (and it is constantly changing!), don't lose sight of your Self. Don't forget Love. Don't make the view and its alternating, alluring beautiful and terrifying images more important than your awareness of Love. Truly, only Love is here. And you are That. Feel It. Be It.
I Love you,

"At every moment, we are free to allow experience to veil our innate Peace or to remain transparent to it. " - Rupert Spira -
You need something right now, right?
You're waiting for something other than God, right?
Praying for something other than God, right?
But God only gives God.
Give thanks.
"Count your blessings, knowing you can't count that high."*
Count it all joy - when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.**
God is still God.
Which means you're still good.
Smile.
Breathe.

She has come to rest in the one who is at rest.
She has reclined in the bridal chamber.
She has eaten of the banquet for which she has hungered.
She has partaken of immortal food.
She has found what she has sought. She has received rest from her labors, and the light shining on her does not set. To the light belongs the glory and the power and the revelation, forever and ever. Amen." - Authoritative Discourse, Nag Hammadi scripture"If you are truly watchful, each thought will dissolve at the moment that it appears." - Sri Annamalai Swami
The scriptures of the world say that we are made in God's image. If this is so, why don't we know that we are taintless and immortal, as He is? Why aren't we conscious of ourselves as embodiments of His spirit? Again, what does scripture say? "Be still, and know that I am God." "Pray without ceasing." By regular practice of yoga meditation with steady attention, the time will come when you suddenly say to yourself, "Oh! I am not this body, though I use it to communicate with this world; I am not this mind, with its emotions of anger, jealousy, hatred, greed, restlessness. I am that wonderful state of consciousness within. I am made in the divine image of God's bliss and love." - Sri Daya Mata

You have to train your attention.
You have to own your attention,
and put away your childish things,
stop distracting yourself from this Real Work.
You have to stop scrolling
you have to stop bingeing,
you have to stop gossiping,
and you know that.
But I can't change you,
Maharaj says, 'All I can do is Love you',
and that Love,
(y)our love changes you,
and you notice less screen time.
You'll notice better content choices,
you'll notice better food choices,
you'll notice more positive thoughts automatically.
My hands are outstretched to you, now.
I'm praying that He may still that mind
that fear that has been with you for so long,
that he may take it.
It's gone.
And whenever you think it's back,
just hear inside, "It's gone."
It's all gone.

"This Lord is to be worshipped by one's own consciousness, not by material substances - by waving of lamps, lighting incense, offering flowers or even food or sandalpaste. He is attained without the least effort; he is worshipped by self-realisation alone. This is the supreme meditation, this is the supreme worship: the continuous and unbroken awareness of the indwelling presence, inner light or consciousness. While doing whatever one is doing - seeing. hearing. touching. smelling, eating, moving, sleeping, breathing or talking - one should realise one's essential nature as pure consciousness. Thus does one attain liberation." - The Yoga Vasistha (the Supreme Yoga)
"Just because you know how Faith works doesn't mean you know how God is going to do your miracle." - Mark Hankins
"I live. Yet not I, but Christ liveth in me. And the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."- Galatians 2:20
"... your light, give me your mercy! My Redeemer, redeem me, for I am yours; the one who has come forth from you. You are my mind; bring me forth! You are my treasure house; open for me! You are my fullness; take me to you! You are (my) repose; give me the perfect thing that cannot be grasped!
I invoke you, the one who is and who pre-existed in the name which is exalted above every name, through Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords, the King of the ages; give me your gifts, of which you do not repent, through the Son of Man, the Spirit, the Paraclete of truth. Give me authority when I ask you; give healing for my body when I ask you through the Evangelist, and redeem my eternal light soul and my spirit. And the First-born of the Pleroma of grace -- reveal him to my mind!
Grant what no angel eye has seen and no archon ear (has) heard, and what has not entered into the human heart which came to be angelic and (modelled after the image of the psychic God when it was formed in the beginning, since I have faith and hope. And place upon me your beloved, elect, and blessed greatness, the First-born, the First-begotten, and the wonderful mystery of your house; for yours is the power and the glory and the praise and the greatness for ever and ever.

"Praying for a change in your life, well maybe it's gon' come tonight." - Kanye West
Today's Practice:
In your journal write, "The moment I feel Love, I Am ___________." The 'blank' is your desired reality. Trust that when you are consciously feeling Love, you are Love, and that Love will take the form of that desired reality or something even more in alignment than you can presently imagine. Don't be attached to outcomes, just trust that It will provide. It always has and It always will, and now, the process is conscious.
Keep relaxing into Love, today. Keep breathing into Love, today. Allowing It to flow unrestricted, absolutely nothing is impossible, and with Love, "everything is achieved." - Neem Karoli Baba

Know that Love is here. Know that everything is changing. Know that It, what's meant for you, is happening! And there's nothing you or anyone can do to stop It. It's all flowing from you, and that flow sounds like silence and feels like relaxation, like Love. Step into your destiny by resting in and AS this Love.
âWhen I run after what I think I want,
my days are a furnace of stress and anxiety;
if I sit in my own place of patience,
what I need flows to me, and without pain.
From this I understand that
what I want also wants me,
is looking for me and attracting me.
There is a great secret here
for anyone who can grasp it.â
- Shams-i TabriziâThere is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness;....and, to know, rather consists in opening out a way where the imprisoned splendor may escape, then in effecting entry for a light supposed to be without.â
-Robert Browning -
The vibration, (t)His Love you feel, must be shared. It must be expressed. Ask Him how, but in the meantime, give It silently. Feel It where you see those who are suffering. Feel It while looking at those who are joyous. Feel It without no breaks, no brakes. And It will fulfill you and the whole world appearance.

Right now you're seeing the dark veil.
You're seeing darkness where only Light is,
thoughts where only Silence is.
Keep choosing the Silence.
See that you have a choice to make this effortless effort over and over again.
Like to sit down into the Silence over and over again.
To sit up into the Silence over and over again.
To breathe into It.
To thank It.
Not with words, but with more Silence.
For you to become more and more silent,
more and more still.
And that stillness, not necessarily meaning of the body, but of those thoughts,
of those doubts- they're all about the world.
When you bring your mind to God,
He holds it still.
He holds you still in Him.

"Light is always within us. When the mind is settled, we see that Light. When this state is developed, we see it everywhere, even with open physical eyes. You see the dark veil, and the Light within that. In the Light you see the blue sky and the golden center shining resplendently -- in the still pose of mind; and when you try to make and use your own efforts, your mind's still pose is disturbed, and you lose it. We need not make any efforts. Our clutching will stand in the way and retard our progress. We should, however, make effortless effort." - Kirpal Singh
"Give up the mind that wants to meditate
and calm down.
Focus on nothing at all.
Disturbing thoughts and lazy indifference

"When you find Christ, you are satisfied, you desire nothing else, you find Peace. You become a different person." - St. Porphyrios
"Until you have given up your self to Him you will not have a real self. Keep back nothing. Nothing that you have not given away will be really yours. Nothing in you that has not died will ever be raised from the dead. Look for yourself, and you will find in the long run only hatred, loneliness, despair, rage, rain, and decay.

Can you hear your Name being called?
Not that the name your parents gave you,
but the Name you were given before your parents were born,
before your great-grandparents were born,
before your great, great, great great grandparents were born.
The Name you were given in the beginning.
The Name He spoke that is still sounding.
Can you hear? That's just beneath my words.
Behind your thoughts,
behind your effort to hear.
Relax, effort,
relax into (y)our Name.
The sound of Silence,
this Magnificence that you are.
"I am the magnificence and glory of the radiant ones. There is nothing beyond Me in this creation."- Sri Krishna
"No matter where you are, no matter how difficult things might appear to be, you are always being moved toward magnificence. Always." - Rhonda Byrne
The Practice:
Today, know that the reason you're still in that place or at that job is because God has a purpose for you (t)here. You're (t)here for a reason. And that reason is for you to see Him, where you see them-- to do like Hafiz says, and 'turn every one of them back into God'. If you're on a Zoom call, stare at each box, at each face, until you can hear Silence, until you can sense Love where that box is, where that face is. And do that for every face. Make it a game. Those 2 hours will fly by, and everyone in the meeting will be blessed and will be changed because you showed up as the Light. You didn't match the seeming energy. You are the Source of energy. You find Peace where you are and that's how you are free to move on to the next level, to the next challenge. And when you get to the next challenge, you find Peace where you are, again.

"May I be a guard for those who need protection
A guide for those on the path
A boat, a raft, a bridge for those who wish to cross the flood May I be a lamp in the darkness A resting place for the weary.

A vase of plenty, a tree of miracles And for the boundless multitudes of living beings May I bring sustenance and awakening
Enduring like the earth and sky
Until all beings are freed from sorrow And all are awakened."

âTension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.â

âSt. Teresa of Avila wrote: 'All difficulties in prayer can be traced to one cause: praying as if God were absent.' This is the conviction that we bring with us from early childhood and apply to everyday life and to our lives in general. It gets stronger as we grow up, unless we are touched by the Gospel and begin the spiritual journey. This journey is a process of dismantling the monumental illusion that God is distant or absent.â
