Fear paralyzes.
“Everyone feels fear. But giving in to fear is what makes our lives narrow and dark. Fear-based action is the source of all conflict; fearful response, the root of all sorrow. Fear is what prevents intimacy and undermines love. But we’re often not aware of how fear drives so much of what we do. There is often fear behind what we call kindness, fear in ambition, in depression, and always fear in anger. Every time we give in to fear we lose our life. In fear we imagine a terrible future, and in this imagining we create a terrible present. We bring upon ourselves the very misery that we are desperately trying to push away. The secret to living with fearful feelings is saying yes to the objects of fear – not being swallowed by them, but welcoming them as invitations to move toward freedom.”
~Ezra Bayda~
Enjoy the fullness of human experience.
“Jump into the river, that is the only way to know life. Jump into the river. Never be a spectator. The spectator is the poorest person in the world.”
~Osho~
This planet is the only place to explore the nuances of human experience. While many tend to create opinions and judgments that dictate how they participate in life, the spiritual seeker understands that everything has the potential to teach and desires only to expand their awareness.
Has your life been a celebration? Do your choices create or reinforce a bubble of limitation in your viewpoints and beliefs or can you recognize everyone who graces your experience as a teacher? No matter what you choose to do, immerse yourself within it. If it has virtue for you, it will become a facet of your infinite beauty. If not, you will emerge wiser, stronger and more compassionate.
Being fully present with the totality of life brings freedom. There is no worry, no judgment… only the expansiveness of an infinite divine spirit exploring the beauty that only earth-bound experience has to offer.
Allowing the new to enter your life brings about transformation.
“Looking with a mind that’s awake reveals the shimmering pulse of life. Looking with a mind full of thoughts reveals only your thoughts.”
~Ezra Bayda~
Happiness comes from within.
“The more we practice with our own struggles and relate to them as our vehicle to awakening, the less we will judge our struggles as defects. Likewise in relationships; the more we can remember that others also have the wish to learn from their struggles, the less we will judge others as defective when we see them caught in their distress.”
~Ezra Bayda~
Listen to your body.
“Begin difficult things
while they are easy.
Do great things
when they are small.
The difficult things of the world
must have once been small…
A thousand mile journey
begins with
one step.”
~from The Simple Way by Lao Tzu~
Be open to new ideas and perceptions.
“The most powerful way to successfully face physical and emotional problems is to undergo a sacred initiation that leads to the death of your old self, to rebirth, and to your illumination.”
~Alberto Villoldo~
Each of us undergoes a series of awakenings and shifts in consciousness that are part of our spiritual development. The wisdom of these differing levels blends together as we continue our journey of enlightenment. When beliefs crystallize, we block this movement of growth and life will often present a shake up in order to get the energy moving again.
Growth is always possible. The spiritual master seeks new insights when things are flowing well rather than waiting for a challenge to prompt the search for healing and answers. This willingness to learn allows us to evolve without needing emotional suffering in order to do so.
When you share with others, the act of articulating ideas and higher perceptions further clarifies spiritual concepts. Living your truth becomes a natural way of being and teaches Oneness with life. Choose to be a visionary as you explore the realm of the infinite.
Trust that everything will unfold in the perfect way at the perfect time.
“We live in an infinite Universe. There will be enough time to fit everything in.”
You are in the midst of a great awakening.
“Today I am willing to accept a miracle.”
Bring mindfulness to the present moment.
“Talking a lot about something that bothers you is a clear sign you’ve got something huge to learn, unrelated to ‘the thing’.”
