OUT-OF-BODY DREAM EXPERIENCES
I am more than my physical body. ~~ I consciously will separate from my physical body once I am asleep. ~~ Most of us at some time, experience the feeling during sleep that we have left our body. We feel that we have risen to the Fourth Dimension, which bridges time and space. It is…
MEDITATION CONCENTRATION
When you meditate, you must be able to concentrate on only one thing at a time. The mind tries to hold several different thoughts and ideas at once. When you sit down to meditate for the first time, you realize how cluttered the mind is. As complex as the mind seems to be, it can…
TAKING CHANCES
If we listened to our intellect we’d never have a love affair. We’d never have a friendship. We’d never go in business because we’d be cynical: “It’s gonna go wrong.” Or, “She’s going to hurt me.” Or, “I’ve had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore . . .” Well, that’s nonsense. You’re going to miss life. You’ve got to jump…
DREAMS OF GARDENS AND FLOWERS

RADICAL TRANSFORMATION
Radical transformation is where we say, “I’m leaving one realm. I know that it is a gift from God that I am leaving one realm. I have no idea where I am going but I am no longer afraid of the void. I am no longer afraid of the empty spaces because empty spaces in life are where…
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
You can make a difference! You may be only one person, but one is all it takes to bring change. We call this the Power of One. When you have zeros you have nothing, but when you put the number one before the zeros, you have millions and billions. Once you apply and practice these different means of…
TAKE JOY IN THE EXPERIENCE
The purpose of life is being – as opposed to not being. Never give consideration to things you do not want to happen. ~ David Baird ~ “You’ll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on your terms, and never, ever apologize for it….
IT’S FUNNY…NOT
It’s funny how hello is always accompanied with goodbye. It’s funny how good memories can start to make you cry. It’s funny how forever never seems to last. It’s funny how much you’d lose if you forgot about your past. It’s funny how friends can just leave when you are down. It’s funny how when…
CHOOSE FORGIVENESS
Every one says forgiveness is a lovely idea, until they have something to forgive. ~ C. S. Lewis ~ Forgiveness requires feeling willing to forgive. Do not attempt to forgive someone before you have identified, fully felt, expressed, and released your anger and pain. Sometimes we just have to make the choice to forgive. We might…
PEOPLE and THINGS
People were created to be loved. Things were created to be used. The reason the world is in chaos, is because things are being loved, and people are being used. Everyone should be told they’re beautiful until they believe it. “We must resolve to live our lives and to build our lives in such a…
LET THE ANGER GO
When you are angry, let it go, not just for a better future, but also because you’re a good person. And a good person isn’t angry most of the time. Instead, he sees beauty in the world and strives for a positive life, in which others around him can be inspired too. When someone is…
EXPLORE, DREAM, DISCOVER
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. Explore, dream, discover. Life is not about what you’ve done, what you should have done, what you could have done, it’s about what you can do and what you will do now. Many things…
I WILL SURVIVE
The strongest people are not those who always win, but those who stand back up when they fall. If love fails, set yourself free, let your heart spread its wings and fly again. Remember you may find love and lose it, but when love dies, you never have to die with it. “In life you…
GO FOR EXCELLENCE
Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives – choice, not chance, determines your destiny. ~ Aristotle ~ Excellence is about getting the most out of the abilities we have been blessed with. It is a way of…
CREATING YOUR FUTURE
The best way to predict the future is to create it. It’s impossible, said pride. It’s risky, said experience. it’s pointless, said reason. Give it a try, whispered the heart. You cannot change the cards that you are dealt. You can only change how you react. People do not judge you on what you are…
POWER OF SIMPLICITY
So many of us underestimate the power of simplicity. We have a tendency to over-complicate our lives and forget what is important and what is not. We tend to mistake movement for achievement. We tend to focus on activities instead of results. And as the pace of life continues to race along in the outside…
CHINESE PROVERB ON TAKING ACTION
Be not afraid of growing slowly; be afraid only of standing still. ~ Chinese Proverb ~ Always strive for taking action. The longer you stand still the harder it is going to be to start moving again.

EVERYONE CAN DO SOMETHING
Our neighbor is anyone who needs assistance, whether friend or stranger. We cannot expect to correct all the ills of the world but we can help the people with whom we come in contact.

FREE TO BE…WONDERFUL
No one is really normal, and do we know what normal really is? We are all just a lot of weird people with things in common. Do your thing, be who you are. If you don’t know who you are, find out. You will feel so much better about yourself if you are able to…
Our Imagination is our Creative Power
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will. ~ George Bernard Shaw ~ Our imagination is our creative power that is necessary for inventing an instrument, designing a dress or a house, painting a picture or writing a book. The…
BLUE MOON

PEACE ON EARTH (Video)
The real differences around the world today are between those who embrace peace and those who would destroy it; between those who look to the future and those who cling to the past; between those who open their arms and those who are determined to clench their fists. ~ William J. Clinton, 1997 ~ If…
BECOMING MORE SPIRITUAL
We receive principle in different ways at different ages. We receive principle in different ways given our experiences. But principle itself is really very simple. And so we we’re talking about these basics and I am reminded once again that all spiritual teaching is basics. As I’ve said so many times; becoming more advanced spiritually does not mean…
