Dream your way to infinite gateways
2008-05-28 12:27:00 What would you say if you realized training yourself to recall night dreams strengthens your conscious memory? What if you discovered that the more control you develop over your astral body, the more control you would sense over the dream of your waking life? Its all about discipline and learning to control your attention. Your energy (astral) body is always with you. It leaves and returns to your physical body at will, day or night, but remains attached by an invisible, etheral cord. This energy body survives the death of the physical body and it senses experiences the physical body doesn't, even now.You may ask, 'how does the astral body know what to do?' It exists and functions without your knowledge until you are ready and willing to learn. Its astonishing to discover you can do things you have consciously conditioned yourself to believe you can't. Its unnecessary to grasp the how you do everything. ... More About: Dream , Infinite
Reclaim your personal power
2008-05-28 03:43:00 Your sense of personal power hinges on your self-worth and whether you believe your life is at the mercy of others. Your personal power is also affected by fear-based beliefs, how you view yourself, and whether you permit emotion and drama to control you. To reclaim your personal power, its helpful to review and reframe life experiences. If you are truly honest, you will admit occasions where your reactions stem from pride, personal importance or, your refusal to take responsibility for your actions. Denial drains power.Your self-awareness grows as you evolve to stop explaining, rationalizing, defending or justifying situations and choices. Such thought processes drain your energy. As you move to the mental place where you no longer compare and judge, you stop viewing opposites. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, prove you're right or wrong, or feel superior or inferior. New priorities transcend all that. You move to become more objective. And so, why deta...

Interpret tough experience as an exercise in compassion
2008-05-27 03:14:00 You may already be thinking, "that's all well and good, but to find the positive isn't always a piece of cake." Do you really listen to yourself? When will you focus on who you are?Its common to encounter people who seem negative, undiplomatic, critical or even downright nasty. Your impulse may be anger and a desire to retaliate, to show them some of their own medicine. Other options exist. What about showing some compassion?How easy it seems to forget reasons explain why people are as they are. Once a thief, always a thief? Not necessarily. Recall the story of Jean Valjean in Les Miserables by Victor Hugo? As a child, he stole bread to eat and was sent to prison. When he got out, people wouldn't hire him as he had a record. So, he stole again. It was all he knew to survive. When a clergyman forgave him and generously gave him the silver he had stolen, this man encouraged ...

Is perfection really unattainable?
2008-05-26 02:14:00 From a very young age, we each begin accepting messages that reinforce we're anything but perfect. Society bombards us with reasons to question our self-image, our comfort zone, and our overall self-view. What are your early memories of not being good enough? You may reflect on school, athletics, creative endeavors, physical growth where you compared yourself to other people. Maybe they seemed to receive more praise or encouragement. Each person who seemed better than you reinforced your deficiencies.You may have developed ways to measure yourself against levels and standards set by other people. Why do you exert effort in an attempt to live as other people believe you should? How can you expect to live up to changing ideals over which you exert no control?As you evolve inside yourself, you begin to grasp how standards of perfection set by other human beings could be ever-shifting, increasing, decreasing and...

Follow the clues to rediscover yourself
2008-05-25 03:08:00 Each of us go through a process to figure out who we really are. Some people do not figure it out during this lifetime. That doesn't have to include you. Decide you will go the distance to tap into your soul. Your choice of mentors makes it easier than you think!1) Notice how your mentors change. Through the process of researching and writing a manuscript, I have read hundreds of stories of people who have influenced my thoughts and behaviors at different life phases. Some people left a lasting impression in person. Others captured my attention with action and what I sensed to be their appealing qualities. Aspects that stand out encourage me to realize I can tap into my hidden self.2) Discern why you label mentors. I unconsciously put each of my mentors into categories, from nationality, to gender, profession or contribution to society, and based on my upbringing, morals and values. I intially felt this simply helped me to organize... More About: Clues
How do you know if your assumptions are right?
2008-05-24 13:30:00 When it comes to relationships, we make all our choices for conscious and unconscious reasons. How would your life be different if you began to consciously recognize unhealthy behaviour patterns and change? Modifying your behaviour doesn't necessarily mean you get to the root of your conditioning. How do you know if your assumptions uncover what you see or, only what you would like to see? Do you really know yourself?Take your current partner. To acknowledge the truth of what is happening in your life within your relationships, you need to be willing to take responsibility for your half of making or watching it happen. As you reflect on your conditions, you can, when ready, gradually grow to see where your beliefs and agreements create where you are. One man shared a story.

What's the common thread?
2008-05-23 13:11:00 What's the common thread in your most life-changing experiences? They are not about you. They are not personal. That may surprise you. In fact, they could involve someone else and you could be just standing in. You could even step back and live vicariously through someone else and get the message. Do you begin to sense underlying vibrations?Many people share stories, and stories have intrinsic meaning. Stories may also inspire , motivate or discourage others. Yet, stories mean the most to those who experience them. They're the only ones who truly understand. Their truth must be felt by them. The common thread isn't linked to fears evoked by stories, like shaky self-worth, esteem or whether others judge. Emotions simply distract you. They want you to stay as you are, drain personal power and get wrapped up in fear-based beliefs. What prevents you from facing every challenge as it comes,...

Why is control an illusion?
2008-05-23 09:13:00 Whether or not you realize or accept it, you exert no control over what is happening outside yourself. You have free will and exert control when it comes to your thoughts and feelings, but you don't control anything else. You are only responsible for you.Now, if you gaze into a kaleidoscope, you glimpse interacting shapes and colors. This serves as a fabulous analogy. Every moment, every human being is contributing to changing shapes and slants inside this kaleidoscope. Life moves through us and with us. Imagine your life as a series of experiences. You add pieces to your own section of the huge kaleidoscope. It includes sections contributed by every other creature and living thing. How could you control all those colors, feelings and experiences? You don't. The assumption you can is the illusion you create out of a desire to control what you can't.You are the only person who can discern and change your behaviour.&n...

What will you believe?
2008-05-22 09:02:00 What causes you to believe something? Is it your senses? Must someone tell you? Is it a vibe you feel? Will you get information from a certain source and automatically believe it to be true? Does it have to be the latest trend? Must other people share your view?Maybe you tend to be more sceptical. Maybe your reflex is to doubt or question everything you see, hear and feel. Maybe you even seem to naturally doubt other people. Where does this leave you?When it comes to dreams, in order to realize what you set out to do, it’s necessary to believe in yourself and your potential. It’s also helpful to be discerning, to sense the role of logic, as well as when logic has no place other than to disorient you from the truth. Now, if you don’t know what to believe, you may have a hard time nurturing faith in yourself. Attitude always affects your dreams, the kind of experiences you will have, and also when.

Fly like an elephant & rediscover your best friend
2008-05-21 08:26:00 Analysis of the week on dream submitted by A.F. in the Midwestern USA.Dream- Our "pet" elephant, wrapped in a stretchy, dark-red blanket, was being lowered gently out the upper story window of our house. As the blanket stretched, he did a "fall" to the ground below. After he landed, the blanket fell away. He sat, uninjured, but disoriented, and looked around. Then, a female was throwing my sweet Posie(female dog) at her best friend Sammie (my male dog).

5 Misconceptions about truth & lies
2008-05-21 05:59:00 Lots of people reflect on what's good for them or not. Its not always straightforward to distinguish between truth and lies. Consider these 5 ideas which may prompt you to reflect on your own misconceptions:1) How do you feel? If you act purely based on your sense of truth, then you would expect to feel nothing but love, happiness, inner peace and contentment. If you are permitting your mind to wander, to believe or defend injustice, suffering or rationalize discomfort, then you hypothesize the opposite of love about society. You are also lying to yourself that it doesn't matter.2) Where does drama originate? Any drama or crisis you experience is grounded in lies, mainly about yourself. It begins when you decide you aren't something you really are or, you choose to ignore what you want to be based on what you decide you should be. If you evolved to believe you are perfect, lovable and nurture unwavering faith without lies, your... More About: Truth , Lies , Misconceptions

6 Steps to explore your emotional matrix
2008-05-19 13:38:00 Many authors claim our conscious perceptions and reasoning minds only play minor roles in our true abilities to explain or resolve emotion. Let's say an underlying feeling substrate connects us all, a matrix invisible to the normal eye, yet sensed by everyone from birth. Does conventional learning teach us to ignore or miscontrue our experience? All human beings have untapped power and access to deeper self-understanding. We each create an 'emotional matrix' or template as a guide. This is shaped by our vibes. The wider grid organizes normal energy all around you and expands your awareness when you're ready to discern its power. Consider 6 steps to better understand your emotional matrix;1) Review history. Man's early evolution used the mind to create and expand an energy field. This matrix is believed to have intensified through trance-induced states of a tribe. These people engaged in rituals with repeated rhythm and patterns that resonated at a specific frequency. Chan... More About: Paranormal , Explore , Matrix , Steps , Emotional

Don Miguel Ruiz & 4 Agreements worth reflection
2008-05-18 03:44:00 Don Miguel Ruiz is a Toltec master who reminds us humans are conditioned to think and act based on systems of reward and punishment, external approval and rejection. To move beyond the image of perfection we create and imagine is out of reach, that causes us to reject ourselves and judge others, Ruiz invites us to make four agreements within ourselves. How many resonate with you? Why encourage new self-awareness? 1) Be impeccable with your word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using words against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in directions of truth and love. How often do you diverge? Where does this path take you?2) Don't take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dreams.

George Bernard Shaw & 3 Reasons to be unreasonable
2008-05-17 14:49:00 George Bernard Shaw quote from "Maxims for Revolutionists", Man and Superman (1903): "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."You might believe that pioneers, explorers, inventors and other non-conformists would all be unreasonable. They may lead lives that go against your views of what is safe, possible, desirable, comfortable or comptible with your conditioning or genetics. Upon closer look, people viewed as unreasonable are the sort who "rock the boat," raise a standard, shatter a myth, challenge the status quo, and encourage others to stretch ther perception and imagination. Take a look at three reasons to review 'unreasonable':1) What do you gain from being unreasonable in your life?2) How has hearing about unreasonable people ...

During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and breezed through questions until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significan...

4 Ways you get what you think about
2008-05-15 07:22:00 How you perceive yourself is reflected in your physical, emotional and other conditions. You direct and determine your level of health by way of conscious beliefs. Your creative energy ensures your life will always mirror what you believe yourself to be. Go figure!?1) Consider the issue of guilt. It may escalate to become physically manifested as illness. This is meant to enable you to face and dissolve your sense of guilt, not prolong it. Yet, if you refuse to face guilt one way, it will manifest itself differently until you do.2) Consider humans who die young. This sometimes relates to the fact they view old age as undesirable or shameful, and only consciously accept youth, illusions of beauty and dwindling energy. Your beliefs about age will affect and emerge in your physical body.3) Consider your views on aging. If you anticipate going deaf, you become hard of hear... More About: Healing
3 Reasons to listen to "that little voice"
2008-05-15 00:36:00 How often do you question whether to acknowledge a voice you hear in your head? What about those gut feelings that defy your own logic? Maybe you assume listening to invisible signs suggests you should also be seeing little green men? Would that be so odd? The latter aside, would you not gain a lot from being more honest with yourself? Consider this; 1) What if conscience is a misunderstanding? Ask yourself what your life would be like if you stopped creating a sense of guilt in situations that originally imply no punishment or retribution. As past, present and future don't exist, mistakes don't involve penance. Otherwise, you could easily say it came before the incident that supposedly justified it.2) What if human beings are intrinsically good? Ask yourself if you accept your mind has free will. As you have choices about how to consider your thoughts and actions, you can assume they are positive or negative. You can assume th... More About: Voice , Listen , Reasons , Consciousness

Rethink your sense of diversion
2008-05-14 00:51:00 As you think, if you view a thought as positive, you are less likely to question it. You permit it to flow what appears a natural course. Yet, when it comes to thought you view as negative, your emotions balk to cloud the issue. You may sense its beneath you. You may feel ashamed, ignore it, deny it or hope to send it back to the Source. But, why?Fear. The thing is, you can't restrain energy. You may think you can divert it, but that's not your job.

A recent movie called The Bucket List reminds us that it’s never too late to identify your dreams and realize them. In this story, the protagonists learn they are dying of terminal cancer. They draft a list of what they want to do before the end, sort of like living goals.One man focuses on thrill-seeking experiences, like skydiving and car-racing, to encourage facing fear. This man also favours reinforcing his senses of sight and touch. He chooses to visit particular places and eat particular food. For him, money is no obstacle to realizing this list, yet what he buys doesn’t satisfy his lingering void. ... More About: Dream

How can you develop superhuman powers?
2008-05-09 09:51:00 So, you desire to develop abilities that exceed what you consider to be 'ordinary' or 'normal' human powers. What is your baseline? That is, what is your reference for 'normal?' If you don't have a baseline or, have some idea of powers you seek to develop, then its harder to get ahead. For now, you might start to identify some key stepping stones:1) What kinds of abilities do you wish to develop? Light exists that you do not see with basic human vision. Sound exists at frequencies that you do not necessarily hear. Any or all of your senses can be drastically expanded. Energy fluctuates in ways that strech or distort your notion of reality. Opening your mind is key to finding training. 2) How did you learn about them? Maybe you read about things you aim to learn or, someone planted a seed in your mind.

Whimsical Valley by Patrick Drysdale

They enjoyed playing roles for fun.A man on one side of town imagined himself as knight in shining armor. A woman from across town idealized herself as a damsel in distress. Their roles drew them together. Others fancied themselves as heavenly messengers on a mission to save the world.In the beginning, everyone relished playing a certain personality one day and something else the next. But, after a while, their amusement turned into monotonous drudgery. They would repeat the same roles. By and by, the people of Whimsical Valley had performed their parts for so long that they started believing their starry-eyed roles. They found it harder to remove their disguises. Eventually, their masks started sticking. One day, a wise magician was passing through town. He saw people had trouble remo... More About: Patrick , Value Tales 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
