R U Tuned In



 “They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world:
someone to love,
something to do, and
something to hope for.”
Tom Bodett
“Expect your every need to be met, expect the answer to every problem, expect abundance on every level, expect to grow spiritually.” ~ Eileen Caddy
“Find ecstasy in life;
 the mere sense of living is joy enough.”

  Emily Dickinson

When you are sad, anxious, feeling guilty
or otherwise tempted
know this need not be.
Say this to yourself as sincerely as you can,
remembering that the Holy Spirit will respond fully
 to your slightest invitation:

I must have decided wrongly, because I am not at peace.
I made the decision myself, but I can also decide otherwise.
I want to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace.
I do not feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the
consequences
of my wrong decision if I will let him.
I choose to let him, by allowing him to decide for God for me.
ACiM Text - Chapter Five - Healing and Wholeness - The Decision for God

"Suppose it is seven o'clock and you want to catch a certain television program coming on at eight. You can tune your set to the correct channel _now_. Then, all you need do is wait for it to come to you. You can relax in the knowledge that you are correctly tuned in, that the program _must_ eventually be yours to experience. You need have no care nor responsibility for its arrival. Finally, of its own accord, and at the right time, your desire appears.

Likewise, with rich results - as long as we are correctly tuned in, by using Mental Pictures, we need not concern ourselves at all with results. They arrive all by themselves, easily and naturally."
Vernon Linwood Howard

"Visualization is daydreaming with a purpose." Bo Bennett: American Businessman

If you are tuned in, listening and aware of what is going on within you and around you,
you will know when to let go.

Make a gift of your life and lift all...by being kind, considerate, forgiving, and compassionate at all times, in all places, and under all conditions, with everyone as well as yourself. This is the greatest gift anyone can give. David R(amon) Hawkins

~“To stand alone in true solitude is to stand in the recognition of the absolute completeness and unity of all manner of existence.” Adyashanti

“You put your whole life on hold until you have ‘x’. If there’s not enough of it, we’ll put our life on hold and be happy, later. If I can get that, I’ll be happy. Skip all of that, and just be happy now…. There’s nowhere to go, and no one going. This is it. This is all your thinking has ever brought you. This is it. Heaven is always where I am. I stopped arguing with what is.” ~ Byron Katie

“It is utter stillness. Such is the form and shape of your original mind. Your own nature is essentially pure and utterly still.” ~ Hui Hai

"Imagination of all man's faculties is the most God-like," said Glenn Clark.

"The faculty of imagination is the great spring of human activity, and the principal source of human improvement . . . Destroy this faculty, and the condition of man will become as stationary as that of the brutes," said Dugold Stewart, the famous Scottish philosopher.

"Men seek retreats for themselves: houses in the country, seashores and mountains; and thou too art wont to desire such things very much," said Marcus Aurelius. "But this is altogether a mark of the most common sort of men, for it is in thy power whenever thou shalt choose to retire into thyself. For nowhere, either with more quiet or more freedom from trouble, does a man retire than into his own soul, particularly when he has within him such thoughts that by looking into them he is immediately in perfect tranquility; and I affirm that tranquility is nothing else than the good ordering of the mind. Constantly then give to thyself this retreat, and renew thyself.
. . ." (Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, translated by George Long, Mount Vernon, N.Y., Peter Pauper Press.)


"ASTONISHING DISCOVERY

A prospector climbed a mountain to seek gold. On the way up he fell down and struck his head. In his dizziness he imagined he had found hundreds of gold nuggets. So wandering around town, he offered non-existent gold to everyone he met. He was completely unaware of what he was doing.
A few days later he fell down once more, but this blow cleared his head. In shock and dismay he realized his former folly. 'How incredible of me to imagine I possessed gold,' he told himself.
Then an astonishing thing happened. Once realizing he did not possess gold he began to find gold nuggets.
Spiritual riches follow awareness of poverty. That is the one and only order of things.
Anyone can see the difference between real and imaginary inner riches. He can inquire, 'Do I feel rich when all by myself, or do I constantly need others to reassure me?'
" VH
