Be led by joy.
“We unnecessarily go on seeking advice from the outside when existence is ready to speak to us from the innermost core of our being. It is already there, but we never listen to that still, small voice.”
~Osho~

As spiritual beings having a human experience, our purpose is to discover the delicate balance of grace while living in a paradox.
“Humor and paradox are often the only ways to respond to life’s sorrow with grace.”
~Matthew Fox~
Heartfelt gratitude and joy draws in even more for which you can be grateful, creating an infinite cycle of abundance.
“Celebration is a thankfulness; it is a prayer out of gratitude. It is a recognition of the gift that has been given to us…”
~Osho~
Help others to shift their perception to a higher level of consciousness by living at a higher level of consciousness.
“We change the world not by what we say or do, but as a consequence of what we have become.”
~David R. Hawkins~
Love is simply discovering who you are in the presence of another.
“You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.”
~Thich Nhat Hanh~
Those who enter your life are responding to a call from your soul.
“We often look to our relationships to mask an anxious quiver of being that cries out for relief. Yet another person can never heal our anxiety; we can only do that for ourselves. But that doesn’t keep us from asking others to do it.”
~Ezra Bayda~
The who are the hardest to love need it most of all.
“If you follow awareness, witnessing, you will attain to a hidden harmony. Then you are not bothered by the opposite, you can use it. And once you can use the opposite, you have a secret key.”
~Osho~
Empowerment is simply taking full responsibility for your own experience.
“A life of equanimity and appreciation is lived in the immediacy of the present – not in the mind.”
~Ezra Bayda~
Seek to live as if you have purposely chosen every aspect of your experience. Appreciate the weather (however it presents itself), see the very human struggles that we share as opportunities to cultivate compassion. Rather than interpreting obstacles as a disruption on your life-path, view them with purposeful intent and transform them into honored aspects of your journey.
One way to fully align yourself with the Now is to ask, “Am I bringing the best version of myself to this moment?” Since there is always room for growth and the soul consistently seeks to attain the next level of consciousness, this is a never-ending playground of discovery. Your best transforms as you evolve.
See anger as a barometer which measures the depth of your attachments.
“All of our defensive maneuvers in relationships, especially our anger and blame, are born out of fear – of rejection, of being alone, of being controlled, of not getting what we want, of intimacy, of inadequacy, of unworthiness. The path to harmonious relationships requires acknowledging and facing these fears. In relationship difficulties, only be being directly present with our core pain – not as a concept, but as a complex of uncomfortable bodily sensations – can we take a step beyond thinking, beyond self-justifying, and beyond the enslavement of our narrow agendas.”
~Ezra Bayda~
When we use moments of anger or frustration as a tool for self-awareness, we can quickly transform that energy into empowerment. Rather than remaining stuck in the story, the spiritual seeker goes inward to see where expectation and attachment have disrupted the presence of joy.
Awareness creates a space where a transformation can occur. As we heal the wounds that we carry, we remove the triggers that cause upsets. Deeply unconscious people struggle through the minefield of their own limited beliefs, never knowing when something may cause them to erupt into anger, or how to handle it. Have compassion for those who are struggling to awaken. It can be helpful to remember how far you’ve come on your own journey and allow them the opportunity to heal in their own way.
The ultimate goal is to release attachment and experience the present moment as it is. The conscious observer walks quietly through life, holding space, and uplifts those with whom they interact.
Allow joy to emanate from the eternal, timeless, spark of life within you.
“If you are content with being nobody in particular, content not to stand out, you align yourself with the power of the universe. What looks like weakness to the ego is in fact the only true strength.”
