Crisis?

"ATTRACTIVE REASONS
People who misunderstand ask, 'Why should I study esoteric science?'
That is like asking, 'Why should I drink water?' Everyone should study this superior science because:
The old ways can only repeat old problems." VH

Guy Finley: A crisis only becomes a breaking point when we fail to use it as a turning point.

What if what you are feeling is just the result of a belief you have?

"Every man possesses an original psychic home of unique attractiveness. However, because of his departure to foreign lands, where he falls ill, he loses command of his home. Because of his separation he cannot see things as they really are, and so falls victim to cunning deceivers. For example, because he is anxious he is also gullible, and so follows anyone who wears a mask of authority and assurance." ~ Vernon Howard

“Life without a reason, a purpose, a position… the mind is frightened of this because then ‘my life’ is over with, and life lives itself and moves from itself in a totally different dimension. This way of living is just life moving. That’s all.” ~ Adyashanti

We are all ONE!

It occurred to me on the way home that here in Canada we have a great forgiveness opportunity. One of our provinces is Quebec which is mainly french speaking. They have a political party called the Parti Quebecois, whose focus in the past has been primarily on separating from the rest of Canada. Now Quebec is in the news proposing to restrict religious symbols from being worn such as turbans.

ACIM teaches “We are all one”. In his later years Muhammad had Christians, Jews and Muslims living in harmony seeing each other as a brother rather than along religious or tribal lines. And the New Testament has similar teachings.

A culture here in Canada steeped in separation. Awesome.

What this afforded me was the opportunity to use Colin Tipping’s Radical Transformation process against World events.

An inner world of shadows.

Nicene Creed

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made.

Who, for us men for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; He suffered and was buried; and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures; and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the quick and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.

And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of Life; who proceeds from the Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets.

And I believe one holy catholic and apostolic Church. I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. http://www.sacred-texts.com/chr/nicene.htm

ONE of the high spiritual moments which have enriched my life came the day I read this book at one sitting. It was a moving and unforgettable experience in which I had the feeling of actually being in the presence of Jesus. It produced a strange compelling identification with the sights, sounds and atmosphere of those times and the Lord's presence was profoundly realistic. When I finished the book I came back to present reality with a start. This effect was created by the fact that here we have every recorded word spoken by Jesus and in the sequence in which he uttered them.

I AM whole, innocent and complete.

A small child toddling across the room is distracted by a bit of colored paper or by his own shoes.  The mind must concentrate its energies on the valuable journey, not on trivial distractions. VH

All that is needful is to train our minds to overlook all little senseless aims, and to remember that our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer nothing, and do not exist. God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember Him. Lesson 258

Muhammad:  Legacy of a Prophet http://www.pbs.org/muhammad/index.shtml

There was a powerful message in the last hour of this video. That a peaceful solution is a victory over the transgressor. And that is still very much applicable today.  Agression is always primitive in nature versus a spiritual perspective.

A choice of war versus peace.

Set your EGO aside.

You understand nature well. You are quick and accurate in all things except your friendships. You are able to be wise in these also by holding this af­firmation: "I am governed by the law of the Good and cannot fear sin or evil." ECH
