Conscious Awareness

Think about a time when you did something or reacted to something and later realized that you might have been “wrong” or became upset at something because you didn’t quite understand it. This is something we have all been through at various points in our lives. For some of us we can catch ourselves before this happens again in the future, and for others it continues to happen over and over almost as if we are not aware it. The reason it may repeat is because we often want to attach ourselves to certain belief systems because we may have been brought up with them or like what they represent. It is true that belief systems can be limiting and can often cause segregation, judgment, suffering and conflict. While it may not always seem to be the case, think of what happens the moment we decide to put all of our trust into a single system of belief, do we limit ourselves? Our ego enjoys creating an identity with these beliefs and in that identity, we give it power.

Let’s say someone challenges us on a piece of information that we believe to be true, if we were to react and get angry or defensive, it is because we are trying to protect this belief. It is in this moment that we can ask, is there a purpose in protecting the belief or information? Is it more so that we feel we are protecting ourselves because we identify with the belief and think it represents us? It is important to be aware of our belief systems and see them for what they are. Awareness is the most important thing we can have during the global conscious change we are in the midst of. The awareness will allow us to observe where our emotions and feelings are coming from in certain situations. We can observe and understand “regular” “chaotic” behavior much better this way. With awareness, we do not feel the need for conflict or judgment because we understand things with clarity. 

As we go about our days doing things and interacting with others, let’s observe and be aware of our thoughts. If we experience judgment or conflict, it can beneficial because it allows us to gain awareness and learn so much from these experiences. They can give us a chance to see what belief systems may be holding us back from experiencing peace within ourselves. Allow the emotions to come and avoid fighting them, take deep full breaths into the emotions, thank them and be at peace with them. Once you do this you will not only gain an awareness into the fact that they exist, but also learn to disempower them as you go.

Be aware, observe, it makes things much more peaceful!

How heavy is this glass of water?

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?”

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”

It’s important to remember to let go of your stresses. As early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them through the evening and into the night. Remember to put the glass down!

What is the ultimate purpose of life?

TO SEE YOUR SPIRITUAL MASTER, LOOK IN YOUR MIRROR.

Its now time for each of us to become our own spiritual master.
We each of us have in ourselves the ability to become enlightened.
We are all in fact deeply in contact with great wisdom and beauty
and have only to open to what we already know. 
The purpose of the personal spiritual search is the personal spiritual find.
Only you can find your own true path.  

You are the explorer on your own adventure.

Intelligent Design: Waking Up To Creation (documentary)

DNA as Evidence for Intelligent Design

Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection may be able to explain how living creatures can evolve from one form to another, but it cannot explain how something that was not alive evolved into the first life on Earth.

“Chance and necessity do not explain the origins of life!”

Stephen C. Meyer, a Cambridge trained scholar in the philosophy of science, does have an explanation for how life on Earth began: the DNA in every cell of every creature shows unmistakable evidence of having been deliberately designed by an intelligent being.

Meyer lays out his analysis in a new book, Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design:

heaven and hell

The angels were once asked: 

"What is heaven?"  

They answered:

"Every heart where love dwells is heaven itself."

The angels were then asked:

"What is hell?"

They replied:

"A heart without love is hell itself."

Meditacija za klik v Življenjski tok

Vabim vse energije Narave, vse Angelske sfere, Božanske energije, moje vodnike in moj Višji jaz – mojo energijo, ki me definira zunaj tega časa in prostora, da se povežejo v moji energijski mreži dojemanja. Naj postane ta mreža del mojega dojemanja tukaj in zdaj. Naj se je zavem enako kot se zavedam vetrov, morskih tokov in gibanja Zemlje in Lune, plime in oseke… Naj začutim Bit Zemlje, ki me spomni na Bit Vesolja in na mojo lastno Bit, ki gre skozi vse čase in prostore in samo Je.  Z voljo in vajo želim  dvigniti svoj življenjski nivo in nivo svojega zavedanja, da bom čim več trenutkov povezana s tokom Življenja.

Dovolim energijam iz angelskih sfer zdravljenja, čiščenja in razumevanja, da prečistijo vse moje energijske poti, ki so ujete v energije preteklosti ali drugih energijskih sfer, ki me odtujujejo od moje lastne Biti, razumevanja sebe in delovanja naravnih zakonov ter utripa Vesolja. Naj zdravilni tok globinsko prečisti moje telo in vse energijske poti skozi njega. Naj se moje telo poveže z najvišjo točko zavedanja moje Biti in naj bo moje delovanje iz mojega notranjega Življenjskega toka. Naj to čutim kot notranjo jasnost, svežino, navdih ... In naj se moje telo napolni z energijo moje Biti, mojega Življenjskega toka vsakič, ko se ta to spomnim in se notranje uravnovesim, da fizično sprostim ta pretok.

 

Naj čista, jasna in kristalna energija kot voda steče skozi vse moje energijske poti za ponovno vzpostavitev povezave z energijo moje Biti, tega, kar v resnici sem. Naj se ta prostor napolni z bleščečimi kapljicami vode, ki zdravijo mentalno, eterično telo in vsako celico fizičnega telesa. 

Naj se zavedam svoje notranje poti mojega Življenjskega toka, naj mi postane začetna in končna točka vsakdana. Naj se zjutraj naravnam v svoj Tok, v svojo Bit in naj me skozi dan vodi čarobnost tega toka, ki prinaša različne izkušnje in dogodke, v katerih pa vedno odreagiram iz svoje notranjosti, kjer sem sproščena v dogajanju in sočasno v bivanju. Tu sem v stanju budnosti in zavedanja in delovanje iz tega toka me ohranja v svežini. Odločitve iz tega prostora ne prinašajo ne utrujenosti in ne zapletajo situacij… Odločitve iz mojega Življenjskega toka me ohranjajo v Sedanjosti, kjer sem, kar sem. Večna Bit mojega utripa. Ko čutim svoj Klik v moj tok Življenja, takrat čutim zaupanje v Življenje in občutek polnosti. Iz tega občutka sprejemam vse svoje odločitve in reagiram na vso dogajanje v okolici. Tako ponovno postane moje življenje polno, kjer je prisotno veselje, humor, vse dogajanje v Naravi, svoboda in moč odločanja in delovanja… tako se ponovno v moje življenje naselijo vse kvalitete moje Biti, kaj jaz resnično sem. 

Čutim svoj tok Življenja v svojem telesu, svobodo in moč mojih pravih vrednot, ki ustvarjajo moje Življenje na vseh nivojih. Uživam v tem, kaj jaz resnično sem, zato z odprtostjo sodelujem z vsemi, ki so v svojem Življenjskem toku, saj njihovo delovanje prispeva k polnosti moje okolice. In jasno vidim tudi tiste, ki še ne čutijo svojega Življenjskega toka in na vse odreagiram enako – iz notranjega toka moje Biti.  

Želim si živeti in delovati v prostoru in času, kjer so vsi ljudje kot zvezde, kot Sonce in Luna, kot drevesa in ptice na Zemlji. Saj je takrat Harmonija Vesolja izpolnjena in v Bivanju.  In moj prispevek k temu je: da delujem vsak dan, vsak trenutek iz mojega toka Življenja ne glede na življenjske izzive, saj se zavedam, da samo na ta način lahko izpolnim svojo Bit in samo na ta način najbolj  omogočim drugim, da izpolnijo svojo.

Zato se s celotnim svojim Umom predam tej nalogi, z zavedanjem, da vse kar je pri tem potrebno, vaja in vztrajnost in da je samo vprašanje tega, kako hitro bom uresničila bivanje iz moje lastne Biti.

negativity

We tend to perceive negative energy as something other people have. Sure, sometimes we feel negative – as in, “go away and leave me alone, world!” but did you know that negativity can be so ingrained in you that it goes unnoticed?

That’s because negativity sometimes wears a disguise called ‘reality’. It’s easy to rationalize that you’re ‘just being realistic’ in not daring to act on a dream – and believe it!

You may assume that positive people are not being realistic – that they’re being naive, that they are in denial with their heads stuck in the sand, that they put on fake smiles in the face of difficulty and so forth. But are they really happy idiots or is there something to their positivity?

Consider this: since when does ‘being realistic’ necessarily mean that things will go wrong and that you have to accept that as the truth?

That doesn’t mean that being realistic is automatically negative. When you view the world from a ‘realistic’ standpoint, you can’t help but be negative IF your version of reality is negative.

If your version of reality is negative, you are conditioned to believe that whatever can go wrong, will go wrong and whatever can go right, will probably go wrong too. Your unconsciously held beliefs make you into a negative person without your being aware of it!

So – if this negativity is so ingrained in you that you don’t notice it, how do you determine whether you’re stuck in a cloud of negative energy that is attracting the wrong people, wrong situations and wrong feelings? And how can you be sure you’re not perpetuating that negativity?

Believing that things happen to you puts you in the role of victim; then it’s easy to be negative because it’s convenient to give up that power. So consider this alternative: who or what is to blame when GOOD things happen to you? Do you acknowledge that you are responsible for the good things – as in, you worked hard, you earned it, etc… but blame external events or other people for your failures? So how come, when good things happen, they are a result of what you do, but when bad things happen, they are not your fault?

Nobody likes to hear that. It takes courage to accept that you create your life experience!

To clear your negative energy and raise your vibration, you will need to retrain yourself to choose a positive attitude.

Here’s another interesting idea to consider: have you noticed that positive people seem to get what they want out of life, and even if things don’t go their way, they still enjoy their lives… while negative people whine and moan about their misfortunes and even the good things in their lives?

To clear negative energy, try this 3 -step process:

1. Take ownership: “When you think everything is someone else’s fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy.” – the Dalai Lama

2. Cancel negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts. This takes practice, dedication and making a decision to see the world through the eyes of “what can go right” instead of “what can go wrong.” You’ll have to catch yourself anytime you are acting out or speaking out your negativity, and immediately change your tune.

3. Use the Love or Above Spiritual Toolkit to clear your energy and bring more light and love into your life; visualize the positive instead of getting sucked into negativity; overcome past conditioning; think intuitively from the soul instead from ‘reality’; create a new, desired reality in your imagination and manifest it in the outer world. Nobody wants negative energy to permeate their lives, yet many of us allow it. But we allow it unconsciously, based on past conditioning that suggests an inevitable outcome to certain situations. When you overcome that conditioning and realize that the future is NOT cast in stone but that you have more control over your circumstances than you believe – then you can begin to consciously design your life.

What’s going to happen then? Your positive energy will magnetically attract what you consider to be good and right for you: people, situations, things… and you’ll notice a huge, huge increase in your happiness and inner peace.

Why not choose positive energy? Make some changes within, and you’ll quickly see positive changes in your life. Enjoy the good feelings and abundance!

can you remember...

...who you were, before the world told you who you should be?

From the moment we are born,
the world tends to have a
container already built for us
to fit inside: a social security
number, a gender, a race,
a profession or an I.Q. I ponder
if we are more defined by the
container we are in, rather than
what we are inside. Would we
recognize ourselves if we could
expand beyond our bodies?
Would we still be able to exist
if we were authentically
'un-contained'?

What if Money Were No Object?

čudež pozornosti je navzočnost

Osupljivo je, kako daleč seže potovanje, ki se začne z enim samim vdihom…

ŽIVLJENJE JE DOSEGLJIVO LE TU IN ZDAJ

 

Preteklosti ni več, prihodnosti pa še ni.

Resnično živi smo lahko v enem samem trenutku – sedanjem.

Naša praksa je biti navzoč tu in zdaj.

Samo tako lahko v sedanjosti živimo v popolnosti.

Za vsak nov dan moramo biti navzoči, če ga želimo doživeti.

Navzočnost v danem trenutku ohraniš, če si pozoren na dihanje.

Prižgi svetilko zavedanja, da osvetliš svoje dihanje.

S tem ustvariš energijo pozornosti, ki osvetli vse dogajanje sedanjega trenutka.

"Ko vdihujem, se zavedam svojega vdiha.

Ko izdihujem, se zavedam svojega izdiha."

Pozorno dihanje je neke vrste most, ki združi telo in um. Če s pozornim dihanjem ustvarite harmonijo, globino in mir, bodo ti prodrli v vaše telo in um. Če pri svojem dihanju ustvarite spokojnost, se bo ta naselila tudi v vašem telesu in stanju duha. Če nežno objamemo vdih in izdih, posledično objameta naše telo in um.

   

Vsakodnevno morate vaditi obuditev. Z vdihom vrnete um nazaj v telo, saj s tem postanete živi v tu in zdaj in se srečate z življenjem, ki prav tako poteka tu in zdaj.

Nujno se je vrniti v sedanji trenutek, da se lahko globoko dotaknemo življenja. Tako stopimo v božje kraljestvo.

Božje kraljestvo se ne nahaja v prostoru in času. Božje kraljestvo je v vašem srcu in v vsaki celici vašega telesa. Dotaknete se ga lahko z enim samim pozornim dihom, z enim samim pozornim vpogledom. Ko vadite pozorno hojo, počnete natanko to – dotikate se božjega kraljestva, po njem se sprehajate pozorno, s sočutjem in razumevanjem. Božje kraljestvo tako postane vaše kraljestvo.

(Thick Nhat Hanh, Čarobnost sedanjega trenutka) 

it's about love, compassion and kindness

the nature of everything

The moment you go from ego to non-ego you experience not only that you are one with all human beings but that you are one with everything. You realize that the consciousness that is realized, that has been compacted with boundaries, has no boundaries. It is everywhere. Consciousness is the basic substance and nature of everything. The truth you realize then is that who you are is not the product of your childhood, is not your body, is not a sense of limited individuality. You are something that is everything, and you are seeing now the nature of everything, not only on the essential level, but on the level of being itself, on a nondifferentiated level, a non-separated level. This does not mean though that you are no longer an individual. You will not lose individuality in the way you might imagine; the individuality will simply be one face of who you are. It’s like the example of the hand. In the beginning you think you are the finger, moving around, doing things. When your knowledge goes beyond the individual, beyond the ego, you find out you are the hand. You don't lose the fingers by being the hand. The fingers are still there, the individuality is still there operating; however, it is a part of something larger. And you are that something larger. At the same time, you are also the individual. Your attention is sometimes the finger and other times the totality of the hand. Then you live as what is called a cosmic individual.
