Living in fear

2012-01-11T01:29:00.000-08:00

Marcus Aurelius had this to say in regards to fear:
If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.
Marcus Aurelius

Living in fear separates you from arriving or doing anything productive. Your constantly thinking about what’s going to go wrong or right! Living in fear creates such a lapse in judgment because of the awareness of what one views as being constantly harmful. We tend to think about preparing ourselves for the worst. When preparing ourselves for the worst we spend so much time doing so, we create the “bad” event and say, “see I told you..I’m glad I prepared myself for this.” Without realizing it we plan a disaster. I’m not saying one should not cover their windows if it has been said that one should do so, in preparation for a major storm or hurricane. But what I am saying is that one should use the energy they have toward fear to do something much more productive with their lives. The amount of time we spend afraid of doing something or afraid that something is going to harm us, is the same amount of time we can use to pray and to send pure energy into this world.

I once meet a woman who told me her father was going to die. She said my father is on his death bed and I want to begin preparing for his death. She later received a call from her native county saying her father was getting better. She began to think about individuals back in her country and thought about all the preparations she would need to make to accommodate the people who are flying in for the funeral. Though her father has not passed and is getting better she thought, I’d better be safe than sorry. As she continued to plan, in the midst of her planning she received a phone call that her father passed, prior to her getting to her native country to see him. She thought to herself I’m so grateful I planned for his death. Though the woman was hurt she kept reaffirming to herself that what she did was right. We later talked and she realized that the time she spent planning while being in another country she could have spent with her father. She could have spent those last weeks with him, as he was feeling better.

Instead of planning on saying goodbye she could have actually said goodbye. The fear of losing her father caused her to think irrationally. The fact that she planning out her father’s funeral was not something to blame herself over, the purpose of hearing her father was on his death bed, was to help her to consider what is important. What was important the time of her preparations was the awareness that she needed not to worry or become afraid of not having enough provision for the people coming to her father’s funeral. If she was at all cognizant of the importance of remaining connected to what her intuition had been telling her, she would have been better off.

This experience taught her that she needed to be aware of the present moment, while allowing the fear and worry that she felt to dissipate and return to the nothingness it once was. If she had done so she would have realized that after her father’s death she could have then began to plan his funeral with her other siblings and shared that experience with them.

The concept of fear has the power to make you feel insane. Insanity is simply the mind that see’s itself outside of the context of love. This Love is Christ; this Christ is the True Self.

Within love,

Come dine with me

2011-12-20T23:00:00.000-08:00

Allow me to sip on your cup, the cup of life
Come rest with me
Allow me to rest at your side, the smell of your love makes me whole
Come and walk with me
Allow me to hold your hand, as the wind kisses my cheeks, I’m reminded of your oneness with me
Come, let’s talk about life
Allow me to be reminded about the life I’ve lived, so that I may continue in the life that I have
Come.
Come and dine with me.
Come and rest with me.
Come, lets talk.
Let’s gaze into each other’s eyes and become one.
Hold me, that I may melt into you! Trust me with your heart and I will trust you with mine.
We are one. We are the same. We have entered into each other for life.

Being You!

2011-12-07T13:17:00.000-08:00

One of the most important aspects to life is that throughout living you decide to be yourself. Being yourself implies that you allow the most intricate details of your human existence to come alive. You allow your thoughts to become your reality. You live to allow your dreams to awaken positivity, life and divinity into another human soul. You live to transform, this universe, this earth and the present situations that occur around you.

Once you make a confident effort to do this ; the most perfect way is revealed to you. True joy will implore you. Joy will lavish your being and create in you possibilities that were not there before. The dreams you’ve experienced through vision will come into fruition, you will begin to meet people who are aligned with your dream.

Divine influences happening in your soul will bring about divine connections that will manifest from spirit to what we know and see as reality. The difference between you and someone else is the amount of faith you have in your divine being. The faith that says I nolonger stand, but it is He that is in me that stands.

You are a blessing to this universe, at this very time in your life, you are here on earth as a promise that God came to fulfill. Seeing you succeed is the goal of the entire universe. Whether you realize this or not you have heard it said many times before; the universe what we know as God is conspiring for your success. You are an absolute miracle!

The Essence of Life

2011-11-27T23:35:00.000-08:00

Beauty cannot be described; It is an inner awakening of your truest self. Once you get a hold of it you can only bestow it upon others. Clinging on to an inner awakening and blessing others is the beautiful intention of life.

As human beings we desire to make this planet a better place whether through our own existence or by physically doing something to put change into place. We can only do this through a sound mind. A mind that even at its molecular level speaks of peace. Scripture states that God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind 2 Timothy 1:7.

This peace we speak of may give the illusion of impossibility for some especially when life gets to be overwhelming. However when life seems to be overwhelming we must take a moment to stop and enjoy the roses. As you stand in front of the rose and contemplate it you will develop a sense of appreciation for the beauty of it and find like you, the rose had to go through a renewal process as it once was a seed as we once were in the womb of our mother.

In life we all have a journey we need to go through. For each person it is a different journey.The elements that arise within the soul is the beauty of the journey. When this happens we participate in the experience of the journey and enjoy it fully. As you smell the rose, the rose itself fulfills its purpose as it reminds you of yours. To truly live is the only way to live. Living a meaningful life means,much like the rose, you fulfill your purpose. Ask yourself what is your purpose? After doing so acknowledge that your life up until now has been about this very moment. Feel the love of God expressed through this moment.

With love,

Redefine death

2011-11-14T00:08:00.000-08:00

Why is death such a hard concept to swallow.

It is only natural to find that as we age, our peers, parents, and associates will begin to pass on around us. But what makes this concept so difficult. When we think of death we tend to get sad at the thought of losing someone we love so dearly. Life without our significant other, parent, or best friend feels as if it cannot be lived. No matter how much were consoled there is still pain; that no one will be able to comprehend.

Let us redefine death and our understanding of it. What is death anyway? We have been taught that Death is the separation of the physical body from the spirit. There are different kinds of death, there is the physical and the spiritual. The spiritual death happens while here on earth. It is when we subconsciously choose to give our spirit or essential nature over to the things of this world. We make this decision unconsciously but sometimes we do it willingly. We do this all the time! Have you ever spoken to someone and while speaking to them they make reference to their spirituality by either saying they are atheist or just overwhelmed. Many people talk about spirituality as if it were a religion. This is not true. Religion is made up of ideas that people thought would be beneficial to the human race. Our spirit is the essence to who we really are. Your spirit self is the real you! However, one must also nurture the body, the mind and the spirit or soul. The mind, body and spirit or soul are entities that work together.

What if in thinking about death, we were to think about our personal awakening? What if we choose to redefine our feelings and emotions while in the moment of sadness. I say this because when someone passes away we begin to think about their lives and how their lives affected us. We think about our time with them, there smile; what they meant to us. In the new thought culture it said that one’s life should be celebrated and not forgotten. But what does that really mean? It means that we acknowledge the dead’s existence and while doing so we choose to be fully grateful for the encounter we had with the soul. This should lead us to thinking about whether or not this person truly lived and whether you are truly living.

I’ve once heard someone say death is not a loss, if you’ve truly lived while here on this earth. If we have truly lived our best life, we cannot go on to regret a person’s death; because we know that in our presence this person expressed their highest self. If we’ve truly lived we embrace the challenges that come with living on earth. Living a meaningful life, is living a purpose driven life. A life that everyday means something; a life that carries meaningful weight. An inspired life lived with love and substantial significance that you, can stand up and say that you are a proud partaker of.

Death does not have to be a scary thought. The topic of death can be an awakener, bringing us closer to our purpose here on earth. You know you’ve found your purpose when everything about you expresses peace, love and joy while acting on your purpose. Your purpose helps others tap into the highest form of life within themselves. In essence death is not a loss in the grander scheme of things. It is when we choose to quiet our gifts and talents that we experience true death.

With Love,

Herlay M.

Believing in purpose

2011-11-07T14:11:00.000-08:00

Ultimately believing in your specific purpose is all that matters. We spend too much time believing in what others believe of us or for us, that we fail to understand our own purpose. We can spend an entire life time living in the unconscious. Believing in our own God given destiny of what we are here on this planet for is the reason to which our existence emanates. I’ve read that most people spend their mid twenties trying to figure it out. In trying to figure out an existence, they spend years making mistakes until they realize they are hurting themselves, eventually to stumble upon what is that they are suppose to be doing.

Although, this can seem like a great way to begin to truly live; to complete many tasks in order to conduct trial and error routines, this can be a waste of time. What if as parents we were enlightened to know what our child’s natural gift is and encouraged them toward it? Our children would be better off, I say this because not everyone who went through the trial and error period of their lives can say they didn’t make huge mistakes. Our life’s journey doesn’t have to be a distant one. It doesn’t have to be one filled with mistakes or misfortunes. It can be one that is guided and protected by the light of Christ within.

The remarkable presence within us is always there. We just have to be trained to hear it. As parents we must train our children to hear the silent voice within. If we don’t our society and its false personalities will. It is important that we rely on the presence of Christ within our own lives that we might awaken this presence in those around us. The enlightened word of God teaches us that if we “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Our children depend on us to encourage and love them. What better way to do this but by teaching them to cherish the life within; the Christ within. We must lead by example, not through our own mistakes. This is believing in purpose.

Peace and Love,

Herlay Maitre

A Sweet Visit to Yourself

2011-11-01T14:58:00.000-07:00

The best thing that could ever happen to you is when you choose to visit the real you.

The real you is exploding and is ready to come out and manifest, as it may throughout this world.

You wonder what is this real you? I speak of? This real you is the essence of divinity that Christ speaks of when he states that Ye are God’s creating us in his image and likeness and making us like him is not an accident Psalm 82:1 . This is what the original intention was all about; that we might know who we are and live as we are.

Some of us have gotten this concept, where we have begun to create. Individuals such as Einstein and Socrates got hold of this idea decades ago, but somehow we believe that we might be different from them. We choose instead to let it go of the idea that we could be brilliant and are on this planet for a great purpose; due circumstances around us or lack of belief in the self. On this earth at this very time and moment there is only a selected few, who are functioning as we are made to. We hear it all the time, be the best You, that You can be! We hear greatness speak but we do not react because we do not truly believe in who really are. The only person that can uncover your inner potentials is you. You must therefore be willing to see yourself as you really are.

Today, I implore you with words of hope; that you might begin to believe in the infinite that created you, and the purpose he created you for. We are all individuals, none of us were created the same or with the same abilities, this is what makes up the word “individual”.

You are your own protype, the only you there is. You are special, a unique brand! You must love you. Without you the world would not be the same, you make up a unique part of this universe. You are a blessing, here and now. Your mark must be left on this planet!

Have you ever stopped and wondered why you were born in this century and not in another? It is because the creator within you, thought this is the perfect time, the IAM in you which is the creator that you are, decided that this was the best time for you to be here, this is when you would be needed. You are here at this specific time because you are a blessing!

Be the Real You,

Herlay Maitre

Believing in "The" self..

2011-10-26T23:29:00.000-07:00

You must
believe in something.

Our generation, teaches us that we must believe in something, outside of ourselves in order to be an achieving individual. An individual that is able to understand his or her self, an individual that is accomplished and self less.Although, believing in someone higher than ourselves is great. This mindset is created to take us believe that we are “better” or will be once we complete a list of actions. I was at a oncert recently, while being there it dawned on me that our outer expression of life through our talent is happens as a benefit to ourselves. As we are doing what we naturally love to do, we bless urselves as well as those around us. We feel fulfilled to be doing what we know we have been put on earth for. As I heard the singer sing, the audience was mesmerized, members of the audience even grabbed the singer’s attention.

The singer went on to hold some audience members hands, while smiling at others. As the singer began to sing, it made me think of how wonderful of a gift the singer expressed. I thought WOW! “This singer is singing from the depth of his being.” But what does that mean “being”? We use terms that we often look past or simply don’t fully understand. The terms often sound good as they are describing something we mean but what are we really saying. This means that the vocalist sang from a place of passion and of surrender. It was clear that the vocalist was in touch with greatness.

Greatness is nothing outside of you. Greatness however resides on the inside. Greatness expressed is the God like character expressing itself through you. Benjamin Disreali said best when he said, "Man is only, truly great when he acts from his passions." Being able to express greatness through one’s passions is a wonderful gift he gives to mankind. Living our best life, begins when we acknowledge the greatness within us. Acknowledging the “presence within” is the same as acknowledging the Christ within. The presence may manifest as a gift at times but it is ultimately the Ideal Man; the Real Self. We know this to be true because the holy scriptures
tell us to worship Him and Spirit and in Truth. We can only complete these two acts by way of the world within.

With love,

Finding purpose

2011-10-06T07:50:00.000-07:00

Finding purpose in all that you do. As woman there is so much that we have on our plates. The entire day can go by and your still moving with no break for yourself. Whether it is with children or with work, there is always a reason to why we are such busy bodies. As woman were always moving and never really have time for ourselves.
It is time to stop feeling guilty about not being able to complete the things that we were meaning to. Believe it or not the time we spend at the end of the other day, thinking about the things we didn’t get done is time that we can be spending meditating and praying.

I recently found in my own life that although I’m currently unemployed the day would fly by and as it did I still did not find the time to work on my personal mission. It’s interesting how time itself can take you for a loop. Since I made notice and stopped blaming myself for my lack of focus and commitment. Blaming yourself for something in the past only brings about more challenge, not change. Blaming yourself does not promote productivity but the lack there of.

As women there are so many responsibilities that we keep placing on ourselves, that keep us from giving time to our personal walk with truth. We place responsibilities on ourselves and we do not ask for help out fear that if we do we will be seen as a woman that can’t handle her business. There are many people around us that would love to lend a hand. How many times have complained whether aloud or in our mind about our significant other not helping?

But in reality we never even asked for help. It is amusing the pressure we place on ourselves when we assume. Assumption is an enemy of the mind. Ultimately, the people in our lives are there to help us along our path of truth and asking for help can help contribute to their walk as well. Your asking for help can serve as a gift toward someone else’s soul. It therefore okay to ask for help.

Finding purpose in all that you do is what is important. If we choose to find purpose in the small things in life such as care taking or cleaning, everything we do essentially becomes an act of worship. The meaning to life does not come when it is forced but through the energy of ease. What we do with ease creates a field for every day improvement. Socrates said it best when he said "Beware of the barrenness of a busy life." Living with purpose is living triumphantly. We must live triumphantly in our everyday moments; it is in this triumph we live on purpose.

In Him we live,

Herlay Maitre

The Treasure Chest

Why treasure life
Why treasure destiny
Why treasure love
To treasure life is to fully participate in life
To treasure destiny is understand the prosperity of

living here right now
To treasure love is to let the flow of love

consume the heart

Why treasure peace
Why treasure talents
Why treasure people
Peace is found in the depth of all that is
Within a talent are the elements of a robust freedom
A world without humans would add no value to the earth

Why treasure hope
Why treasure forgiveness
Why treasure the creator
Hope sketches the lasting impressions of love on the heart
Forgiveness soothes the bones and awakens the vessels of the soul
The creator is the originator of all of life, honoring the originator is becoming one with the substance that is within all

The truth is

2010-09-27T00:40:00.000-07:00

The truth is you are who are

The truth is you are ONE with the Divine Source
The truth is you are precious and every way
The truth there is no one else on this planet like you
The truth is your mother and father are not the direct means to which you came into existence
The truth is you are perfectly created in the ether and made a choice of who your parents would be.

The truth is you are who are

The truth is you are an excellent unfoldment of the Divine manifesting on this planet earth here and now.
The truth, I tell you; is you are the most delicate being that ever existed
The truth is the planet we call earth is blessed to have you here!

Be Divine

2010-09-20T11:44:00.000-07:00

The divine is awaiting to unfold
The divine is awaiting that you uphold his teachings
The divine is awaiting your presence here and now
The divine awaits to have and to hold the fullness of himself in “You”
The divine is you, wrapped up in this physical body, just awaiting…
Awaiting full awareness from yourself to acknowledge his presence
in and around you. Your true essence within is wonderfully crafted.
Crafted with splendor and majesty that is awaiting the adornment of
Itself. The adornment spoken of is not of material well-being; this adornment
is the awakening of the supreme life within you. Therefore, Be You!
Be divine, Be the physical manifestation of life, love, laughter and beauty;
that happens here on this planet we call earth.

To love...

2010-08-11T00:22:00.000-07:00

What does it take to love?

What does it take to live?

What does it take to forgive?

Well these questions cannot be answered by the human mind or the intellect.

The questions could only be answered by what the depth of the soul knows to be true.

Therefore to really love is to be in the present moment; while enjoying the warmth of the sun the coolness of the moon and the stars in the sky.

To live truly is to move from one smile to the next and from one tear into a joyous occasion.

To forgive is to die of ego and to embrace the ideal man, who always loves, always living and always moving forward in depth of his souls practice.

What does it take to love?

It takes character,

It takes courage,

It takes Christ.

Live to Transform

2010-08-03T15:14:00.000-07:00

Live to transform
Live to move
Move to create
Create to believe
Believing is the key to living;
Live to believe in one’s dream
What’s the point of a dream without
a belief. Belief feeds a dream.
A dream never dies when in the presence
of belief and love. Love is the powerful element
that lies within the dream and creates the manifestation
of a dream we see before our eyes.
Allowing an inspired dream to come into a mind
is the allowance of life birthing into this world.
Therefore, live to transform, dream to believe
and create to manifest.

Why Say "I do"...

2010-05-26T16:46:00.000-07:00

One might start to ponder about the act of saying, "I do".
The figures that usually come to mind when thinking of the words "I do", are a husband and a wife, standing before a church confessing their individual plans to love one another.

At the beginning or ending of their plans they most often say, "I do" a means of signing off to the love they have confessed to one another.

Does anyone ever ask what "I do"actually means in relation to other relationships.
Lets take for example a relationship with Christ or the relationship you are keeping with yourself.

May I ask, how you are treasuring those relationships and have you actually kept the idea behind the "I do"?

Did you in fact know that the relationship with self and christ are the same. One can not be separated from another. "What is she saying," you ask?

What I'm saying is that the divine within "You" is Christ. The divine is therefore who "You" are. It may sound as if there are two individual You's, but their isn't.

You ever notice that when you are upset or angry you say something like " I don't know what has gotten into me, I just became another person." This other person you are speaking of is your false personality. The divine You, is actually the person that smiles at the circumstances or challenges of life and considers them menial. You might have said well, "there was another individual present in this sentence. The individual that came out when upset. " If you asked this question, then you are on the path of realizing TRUTH, for what it really is.

This other person presented here is actually what I'm choosing to call the false self, or the ego. I'm choosing to call this the false self because it only comes out at during certain situations. The fact that its appearence is timely means that it is not real. The essence of the real "You", is who you are; it therefore does not need circumstance or situation to appear. It just who "You" are.

You ever notice a mother get so angry at her children and then turn around in the same instance and smile and while saying, "I don't know what I would do without them". This mother in this moment is displaying the divine presence, that she is. The question is finding out what creates those instances that cause the divine "You" to come forth and how to allow those instances to become our present reality.

A wonderful way to manifest or see this divine "You" is by first acknowledging that the divine "You" exists. Think about it if you don't believe something exists how could that thing appear real to you.

Another wonderful concept that can be applied to seeing the divine "You" in manifestation is to simply get to know the divine "You". Logically, how can you identify with something you know nothing about.

Lastly, another wonderful tool to actualizing the divine "You" is to create avenues that enable the Christ personality or consciousness to come forth. For example, if there is someone that you have not forgiven or feel as if you can not forgive. The suggestion would be to create an atmosphere of forgiveness where you literally practice forgiving this person. To create this atmosphere you would:

would bring this person to your mind and allow the heart of forgiveness to pour into this atmosphere you have created, by consciously choosing to say or think words like " I love you (name of person)," " I see who you really are (name of person), I see the Christ in you arising (name of person)." " (name of person) I love the Christ in you, for it is my reality of you." " ( name of person), I now cause for every illusive strong hold in your life to be broken."

note: At the end of each of these affirmations, make sure to thank God and believe you have caused great influence on this planet because you have began with yourself.

You are what love is truly made of. The Christ personality or consciousness that you are is in fact is love. Love can not be anything else but what it is: Love. Therefore, if at any point in time you forget who "You" are in a time of illusive ciaos; remember one thing "You can only be who "You" really are, LOVE.

Saying, "I do" simply means that you are committed to the release of the "YOU", that has been itching to appear permanently for so long.
I now ask you the question you've been waiting for, will you say " I do" to your true identity today?

Peace and Blessings,

Herlay

The real reason to live

2010-03-17T17:20:00.000-07:00

I want to live,
I want to live to make others live
I want to live,
to see the growth of many

I want to live for a cause
and die for a truth
I desire to live to see truth arise in others

I want to live to cause truth to arise
and hate to fall, I desire with every muscle
of my being to live, to live out truth
to be truth, and to walk truth

I have discovered there is not a direct cause to living
if another does not live with you, one is a mirror for another
to live in the absence of love is to not live at all

I want to live, my soul purpose on this earth is to live
to cause and effect change onto others that they may live

Millions of people are existing on this earth, but not to many are living. We must choose consciously to live for a greater purpose, not after education has been completed but with the moment called present.

I want to live.

Note: To The Broken Hearted

When things seem

2010-03-08T23:55:00.000-08:00

When things seem dark look up!
Look up to the mind of God,
where light illuminates and lives.

When things seem rough!
Look around at the soft and still earth,
and breathe in.

When things seem out of control!
look at the which is all surrounding,
all inclusive and all powerful, around you.

When things seem hard!
look within and ask,
whether or not this situation will cause destruction to this world?

When things seem absolutely unchangeable!
turn on the faucet to feel the cool water turn warm.

When things seem impossible!
turn and focus on your attention on your inner man,
and witness the miracle of creation and reformation
happening within you.

Seeing the best...

2009-07-09T06:42:00.000-07:00

Seeing the best in your self is
Only seeing the good qualities which some might say are:
Difficult ,
Impossible,
Not worth seeing or
Incomprehensible.

But I say seeing the best in yourself is to recognize:
Truth,
Vitality,
Creation,
Fullness, and
Love.

Seeing the best in yourself
Is not recognizing what is to be worked on; while placing negative pressure onto yourself to achieve a:
Career,
Great body,
Status,
Or establish a calling.

But to come to a knowing place of:
IAM Beautiful and complete .
IAM The creator of my life.
IAM a blessing to many.
IAM causing positive change.

Seeing the best in yourself
Is never to believe in terms of falsity like:
Failure,
Death,
Lack, and
Sickness .

Seeing the best in your self
Is to know who you truly are, this is to see and believe reality such as:
You are a master at everything,
That you have existed previously and remain,
You are untouchable by death and that you,
seek and know only GOOD.

Remember tomorrow

2009-07-08T06:04:00.000-07:00

Remember tomorrow but hear the voice of today, for Tomorrow is the latent of today

Remember tomorrow with the mind of a creator
To see the little that is created is a miracle

Remember tomorrow with the hand of hope
That the maim man will see his perfect image

Remember tomorrow in joy of the present
For the presence of life has appeared and remains

Remember tomorrow and do not strain to repeat yesterday
For the shadow of yesterday is within the elements of today

Remember tomorrow with the intention to learn
To learn is perhaps the greatest gift given to man

Remember tomorrow with the eye of love
For in love, is the secret of life

Remember tomorrow not with regret or fear
Life begins at the moment of love

Remember tomorrow and do not forget the memory of today

To remember is to pay homage to the universe for its daily bread

You are the key

2009-07-07T06:06:00.000-07:00

You are the key
You are the melody
You are all that is

You are the key
You are the truth
You are the blessing

You are the key
You are the road
You are the path

You are the key
You are the creator
You are the decider

You are the key
You are the one
You are the way

You are the key
You are the vessel
You are the answer

You are the key
You are the life brighter
You are the binder

You are the key
You are the example
You are source

If I were young again…..

2009-07-06T06:05:00.000-07:00

If I were young again,
I would run through the breeze.

If I were again,
I would present myself fearless to the wolves.
If I were young again,
I would roam the streets and say hello to everyone.

If I were young again
I would travel throughout and embrace the sickly.
If I were young again
I would throw myself onto the grass and kiss the field.

If I were young,
I would smile at the slightest sound of a human voice.
If I were young again I would embrace the present moment and dream for the next.
Only if I were young again, I would believe in the impossible and fall in love with possibility.

If I were young again…..

If I were young again,
I would hold the responsibility to only awake and dream.
I would choose to laugh at mistakes.

To be young again is what we all desire,
However, it is often hidden once grown up.

To release youth is an unforgettable experience.

If only I were young again, some might say.
To be young again is a mentally not a phase.
So go ahead embrace the youthful spirit in you!

It will never cease to jump, if it is not released.

Go ahead be young.

God in me…

2009-06-30T06:04:00.000-07:00

Swim far

Sees Christ in all that is
God in me
Lives in man

Why

2009-06-29T06:16:00.000-07:00

Why dream
Why hope
Why live

We dream of being set free
We hope to remain in the now
We live only to die tomorrow

Why believe
Why attain
Why trust

We move to gain
We gain all that was once lost
We acquire in our minds not in possession

Why possess
Why acquire
Why gain

We possess material but hope to go gain eternal
We acquire for we don’t trust, our own brilliancy
We gain to accumulate when all that is, still is

Why accumulate
Why material
Why eternal

We all want something
We all desire to accumulate so that we may feel value
We all want, but few desires the reality of density

Why wait
Why now
Why not

We all have in common that we want instant gratification
We must do what is innate and start today
We must try, we must not wait to go deep

Why deep
Why within
Why listen

We all have the voice within
We all must choose, one day, the choice is now taking place
We all must take notice, before the choosing takes over

Why choose
Why love
Why resemble

We all have a choice to win
We all have access to the keys, the keys within our vast mind
We all must return to the original source of dust.

From the source

2009-06-24T10:03:00.000-07:00

From the source of nothing
Something must arise

From the source of nothing
Hope still resides

From the source of nothing
Must water flow

From the source of nothing
Eternity came forth

From the source of nothing
Life was created

From the source of nothing
Emanated all of feasible power

From the source of nothing
Came woman and man

From the source of nothing
Ashes created you

From the source of nothing
What was not yet, was

From the source of nothing
Came divinity onto man

From the source of nothing
Comes all things

From the source of nothing
Must something live

From the source of nothing
Is the source in which we seek

Dreams are waiting....

2009-06-23T06:22:00.000-07:00

Dreams await.
Dreams are of today/
The dreams of today await.

Today we ought to come alive and dream.
Dreams await today/
Dare to dream.

Dream the possibility of wealth.
Dream the solution of cause/
Dream to fulfill.

Dreams await.
Dreams are of today/
The dreams of today await.

The entire you awaits.
The entire universe resounds/
Make noise, create melody and dream.

Stand up, no longer do have to wait/
I dare you to say something.

I dare you to state your dream.
I dare you to see your dream/
Dare to dream.

Dreams await.

Simply believing is giving thought.
Thoughts create ideas/
Ideas spell dreams.

Look inside.
Hear the voice/
Begin the course.

Dreams await.
Dreams are of today/
The dreams of today await.

No one left behind

2009-06-22T06:18:00.000-07:00

Your not left in the cold.
You are not left in the rain .

you are not left alone .

You are not left to wonder.
You are in fact left to ponder,
To ponder on significant truth

To question,
Then to ask the difficult questions,
Said to be difficult

No one left behind

Your never alone.
Your never left untold.
Your never left unfulfilled.

You are left to contemplate
The greatness in you,
The source of great life, in you

To ask the question, who or what is this life
Is the beginning of never being left behind.

There is no race .
There is no fight .
There is no possibility of failure .

All must be sought .
All must be found .
Whatever that is hidden must come to surface .

All darkness arises at the sound of truth .
Darkness is a person, in himself that ,
Desires to come to life .

Nothing desires to remain alone .
This is why no one is ever left behind .
There is a friend every where .

As there is underlying truth in everything .

No one is ever left behind,
Therefore seek to be sought
And ye shall find, that there is
All life contents; surrounding.

Escaped the curse.

2009-06-19T06:11:00.000-07:00

We have a escaped a curse,
We have escaped the power of evil,
we have crossed over into the land of promises.

We have moved forward.
We are now elated at the great efforts being made,
we were once trapped, where we saw no way out,

we have found a way.
We have also found a life,
We have found the truth.

We must therefore look into the direction we are going.
We must therefore transcend, that we must do, to continue,
On the path of realization/

The path of realization is simply today’s understanding,
acknowledging that we have escaped and that we have,
grown is a tedious task/ however some will never complete it.

We have escaped the curse of mans tongue.
We have came out of the lake of desperation.
We have entered into the realm of endless possibility.

We have come alive, as we were.
We are found abundance within.
We have lived.

Truth must be made manifest in you.
You are that truth unveiling its essence,
you have trampled over the voice of the serpent.

We have escaped.
We have access to the keys promised.
We have permission to receive all that is good.

We have escaped.

Cry no more

2009-06-18T09:39:00.000-07:00

Cry no more
Cry no more
Cry no more

My child, I am here
You must not cry
For everything will be

Cry no more tears of sadness
Cry not tears of sorrow

But cry tears of joy
Tears of awe
Tears of joy

Cry no more, my child
Over the foolish things
Of this world

Life is in me
Tears of joy are in me
Cry for the reason that, you
Have found life

Cry no more
For him, who forsake you
Cry no more for the material
That deserted you.

Cry not my child
Those pains will soon end
And your joy will soon appear

Cry to sing
Cry to deepen
Cry for nothing but peace unveiled unto society

Cry not my child for life has come and joy has begun

Living for today

2009-06-16T08:27:00.000-07:00

Live without looking at tomorrow
Live with the heart of gratitude
Live with a heart of gentleness

Live

Live to be alive
Live to enjoy the blood rushing through
Your veins and to your heart

Live

Live with the consciousness
That everything exists for my enjoyment
Live to be of service to others

Live

Live to look for life in others
And if not found creating the life
Within them as if they were your child

Live to embrace the womb of a woman
For there is where you came
Love is living

Live

Live without limits
Live without worries
Live without concern for what is not completed for today

Just learn to live
Live so that others may live
Live so that truth may be known

Live to be change
Live to impart life
Live to cause life

Live

Greatness in you/Reading Reflection

2009-06-15T11:28:00.000-07:00

After reading the article “The Conversation” Part 3, by Minister Alain Dagba.

I have concluded such wonderful thoughts. I have come to the realization that what I have been calling success is not success at all.

Before reading this article, I was defining success as direct contact with a goal or the attainment of a heartfelt goal. It was as if success was an actual attribute.

When success, instead is the direct result of perfection; when relating to the ideal man. The ideal man is the remaining of absolute consciousness. This consciousness is the mind or mindset of the creator; God.

Material manifestation is absolute and conclusive after a goal has been attained. However, as mentioned in the article these goals for some include: marriage, career, and success are important nevertheless they are not eternal. Eternal means what never changes. Eternal is that, that is the same yesterday and today. These goals are only temporary. Once attained they leave one with the question of “now what?”

The ultimate goal should be to awaken into Christ. To be awakened is to realize Christ; the true nature within all men. Within Christ is the foundation of life, redemption. This life is substance of reality, which is eternal. This life is eternal for the reason that the truth it relies upon is continually unfolding. This truth unfolds to become more practical.

Within this awakening man must also understand that they are not the portrait, in the mirror in front of them. The process of actualizing concludes that sickness, illness poverty, lack of any kind is not a definition of who they are ideally. Who you are ideally is eternal; you are in fact the same yesterday, today and forever. You are in fact a spirit being manifesting in a temporary home called your body. Your image and likeness is of greatness, therefore all that becomes you is of greatness as well.

Wow! All you need to do is understand this fully. Once this is complete you will find all that pertains to life. This is a promise from the word of life which says “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue, 2 Peter 1:3”.

Observe to embrace your innate nature today, which is Christ.

Thank you, Minister Dagba for continually enlightening our minds.

What if?

2009-06-12T08:03:00.000-07:00

What if who we thought we were/
We were not.
What if we all took a moment to reflect.

What if within that reflection, we found who
We are/ our purpose and our position/
What would happen?

What if the entire universe understood/
The presence they had within them/
What if the entire mankind sought the power that is within them/

Many are called to know such truth/
But few will find it, for the reason that we are afraid to know/
Our own mind uses our abilities against us.

What if all we sought to know was truth,
Instead of war, instead of sadness, instead of sickness, instead of lack/
What would occur, if we were focused on making your neighbor better/

What if?

What happened to original intention?

I am here to tell you it does happen.

We do make each other better/

The man to my right is thinking how he might provide for his children.
Is the same as the women on my left thinking how she can improve the economy.

Both the man and woman who think of his children and economy see the face of human kind.

You see it may be one child or one nation but it is in fact the complete picture of every face on this planet that is represented.

I am the face you look to improve.
I am the child you look to care for.
I am the man whom you seek to provide a home.
I am the source of wealth you seek to place into the hands of man.

I am, it all.
We all work for one source.
Weather we acknowledge it or not.
What if we took the time to embrace the essence, of all existence.

What if?

Service without rest

2009-06-10T19:41:00.000-07:00

Service with life attached
Service with truth as its premise
Service with love
Service with truth

Life with hope
Life with blessings
Life with detachment

Service with probable cause
Service without limitation
Service without alikeness

Life with truth
Life with faith
Life with hope to carry

Service of belief
Service of purity
Service without judgment

Life is all that exists
It therefore must carry with it service
Service with life attached/creates life

Service is our purpose

Service life on one spectrum

It's clear...

2009-06-10T07:48:00.000-07:00

It’s crystal clear/
That you are/
It’s crystal clear/
That all that is, is you.

It’s crystal clear.
You are all and all/
It’s crystal clear.
That life exists only in you.

It’s crystal clear/
That you the great I am/
It’s crystal clear/
That every soul relies on you.

It’s crystal clear /
That the material we touch /
The water we drink /
And the man on the street/
All have your image.
Yes, it clear.

Its crystal clear that the man/
Who makes you angry is the same man/
To put an irreplaceable smile on your face
It’s clear that the image within that man/
Never disappeared.

It crystal clear.
We must see with the eye of wisdom.
The eye of power, the eye that is unbiased/
We must.

It crystal clear .
The joy that steams is the same energy of hate.
That heals the human soul.

It’s a sure assumption.
That what is seen with the outer body,
Is not the real man as one might know.

It’s clear, it’s perfectly clear, it’s obvious/
We are not who we say, who were taught but
The illusive spirit of the I AM.

It’s clear.

Spare me of the cross

2009-06-09T06:41:00.001-07:00

Spare me the agony and be real with me.
Spare me the pain and be truthful.
Spare the tears and wipe the agony away from the mirror.

Be set free.
Be set free from the bondage of this age.
Be set free from the meaningless trials of man.
Be delivered.

Spare me the trial.
Spare me the traffic in the mind/
Spare me the uproot, so that I may see the coming age.

Be the light.
Be the breathe.
Be the joy.
Be of service.
Be of mind and purpose.

Spare me from the blind earth.
Spare me from the upcoming defeat.
Spare me that I may see, what is ahead/
Spare the one in midst of the thorns.

Be truth everlasting.
Be brilliant.
Be superior.
Be evasive.
Just maintain, and be.

Spare me from the loud ego.
Spare me from the silent night.
Spare me from the falsity of sight.
Spare me of me.

Be of greatness.
Be a part of something great.
Be a path.
Be a vessel.

Spare me of nonsense.
Spare me of the old world/
Spare of the spare.
Spare me of lack.

Be my truth.
Be love.
Be my gift.
Be always of embrace.

Be not the spare/
But the giver of the spare that shines its radiance unto all that exists/
And removes all that is not to be all that is.

Living waters in the desert

2009-06-09T06:34:00.000-07:00

Living water flow.
Living water flow through the crevice of my being.
Living water flow through the desert around me.

Water you are above all else pure and magnificent/
You are full of power and might/
With you I know I find strength.

I find bliss.
I find tranquility to live another day/
To breathe another, breathe.

Come now living water and cleanse this anxious heart of mine.
Living water, come
Living water, embrace me.
Living water surround me and keep me.

Living water flow.
Living, o’ most beautiful water/
Purify and replace the melody of sadness with the melody of joy.

Living water I find hope.
Living water you have come to stay/
Living water you are my all.

Living water flow/
Living water fill my being/
Living water flows through the valley and finds life.

2009-05-18T14:35:00.000-07:00

I am at peace with all that I create.

I am at peace with the past .

I am at peace with the present moment .

I am at peace with this moment .

I have forgiven the past .

I have forgiven the present moment .

I have forgiven this moment .

I now consciously choose to embrace this moment;

this now, is whom I choose to love and look highly upon.

In this moment I desire nothing but to capture the mental picture of now’s perfection.

To live in this current moment is what I desire, to dream and to create and then to let go is what the moment speaks.

I am at peace.

To Live...

2009-05-13T12:50:00.000-07:00

In the presence of many I stand tall .
In the presence of absence I arise .
In the presence of adversity I live .

Joy is my name .
Joy is my nature .
Joy is what enables me to stand .

In your presence I am alive .
I live to fulfill purpose -
Purpose is the essence of my joy

To ask why?
Is the beginning of being alive-
being fulfilled and being free .

Freedom is in the midst of I am .
As joy is his name .
The name that is above all names .
within you is his name .

In joy you arise, live and transcend .

You are now living in this moment,
for the purpose of experiencing freedom .

Patterns of thought

2009-05-03T16:00:00.000-07:00

We become what we befall by way of our own volition. Do not blame anyone for the failure of the story you have written. All consequences depend on the energy they have been sent forth with. It is now our job to de-domesticate ourselves from our old entangling pattern of thought.

Our mind is like a file cabinet. The way you arrange it, is how you are going to think. What you think is ultimately what you receive. Our thoughts are composed of energy, strong enough to destroy an entire city.

Our thoughts dictate our words. Our words dictate our actions. Our actions produce results. Any form of energy, or thought waves, sent out enables a negative or positive charge to occur within the body mind, soul, as well as the universe. Hence, the boomerang effect you experience.

The actions manifested are the reflection of the inner universe reproducing, what it has been feed. Everything is energy; every thought has its corresponding affect. Just as every action has its corresponding consequence.

Every thought in essence has an atomic bomb effect. It has the power to destroy the entire creation. You could say thoughts are people. They are sensitive, pure, and divine and must continuously function in love. Thoughts also move, think and will.

Our thoughts return to us physically, mentally, and emotionally. This means that your thoughts have direct relation to your health, your finances, as well as those around you. This is why, you might hear, “I was not feeling this person’s vibration”. This vibration is in direct relation to the thoughts this person may have been experiencing.

Today, become conscious of what you’re thinking about. If you like the way you feel while thinking about something. Keep thinking that way. However, on the contrary if you do not enjoy the side effects of those thoughts, practice transforming them by rising above them.

For example, the thoughts might be “I am insignificant, who really cares for me.” rise above the thought by saying “I am a blessing to all who come in contact with me. I am in fact a breath of fresh air. I’m a wonderful addition to this planet!”

This is our ultimate goal and purpose: to realize freedom in our souls. This freedom enables us to walk as we have sent.

Truth be told

2009-05-03T15:56:00.000-07:00

I am amazed at your beauty.
Your ability to transcend the realties of life.

I am perplexed at the vast composition of this earth.
You are mother earth; you are both creation and life itself.

Amazed at your immensity,
I am almost overwhelmed at the glimpse of your eye.
Your eye full of truth, radiating from the depth of your soul.

Truth be told.
Mountains worship.
Hills honor and bow at your prestigious intellectual abilities.
Yet these abilities do not surpass the endless stream.

In amazement I stand, as I see the leaf unfold and
Flowers bloom. The advancement of the mind is beyond what years can grasp.

Your heart is what we all desire to find.

Let the truth be told.

Without God......

2009-04-22T07:43:00.000-07:00

Without God we can do nothing. With God we can do all things.
All things exist because of the presence God within them. God exists in all things because life is within them. God is therefore life; God is the originator of all that exists. God is the breath we take in. The presence of God is within the article of clothing we are wearing. His pattern of mind is even within the ink I write to you now.

God is beginning. The beginning is God; himself. He therefore takes the shape and form of all that is, in order to create what we see as matter, but he is within all. God then breathed life into us by giving us his mind.

The mind is the seat of all perception. The mind is where creation is birthed. So, it is now important to ask yourself what you are creating. What you think is what you create. Just as God saw it was good to project man. He therefore, thought man and created him. Man is hence a projection of the thoughts of God.

Now, the same mind that created the universe is in you. You must now choose to affirm such truth. “The mind of creation rests in me.” Our mind is the realm of infinite possibilities. Everything ever created emanated from mind.

All problems have their corresponding answers. These answers mingle within your mind at the smallest degree or particle of light. Our ultimate goal should be to raise that degree to where it overcomes ignorance or lack of understanding. At this point you must be puzzled! When thinking of mind, and realizing that the every day life circumstances, issues and what we consider troubles have their answers.

What is your mind most often inclined to thinking? What you are thinking about most often is the exact result you receive. Choose to pay attention to your pattern of thought and see the result of that thought wave within your affairs. It is time to begin using the n the innate God given breathe within you.

Keep in mind, today that you are the creator of the circumstances and events that occur in your life. Therefore, change the energy of the thought wave from the mind of flesh creating havoc and misfortune to the mind of peace, love and perfect self expression. This is the mind we need to function in 24/7.

The moment we creep back into our ego self or the mind of flesh, we are our also creeping back into poverty, sickness and death within ourselves, which then leaks into our affairs. Let us make perfect self expression our sole desire, for it is the way to life.

Finishing

2009-04-18T07:01:00.000-07:00

I want to finish.
To finish the race of where it all began,
To finish the original race is what I desire.

I want to finish.
I want to transcend this body made,
of earth to enter into a realm of illusive reality.

I want to finish so that you can begin,
I want to encourage your beingness to
progress and to attain.

I want and desire with all purpose that you,
awaken-awaken from slumber-the state of which reality is at a distance-
the realm of unconsciousness.

I want to finish,
to finish the journey of Gods realization.
Where the mountains are high and the walls are speaking.

To finish is to complete,
to attain is to reach however, to realize is to stumble
upon with a subsequent joy, the joy of recalling where one once was.

We must silence the voice of the ego,
the false self, Satan and grow in the salvation that is eternally unfolding.

Truth and Love

2009-04-15T13:56:00.000-07:00

Truth and Love
Move together
they are always happy; always joyful and at peace.

Truth and love
Function in unity
They are in harmony; they’re always creating beauty in others.

Truth and love
Move in joy, in confidence
They are ever present. Ever knowing and above all else will never fail.

Truth and love are one entity
They are flowers that bloom in every season.

They do not understand the terms “sad” or “unhappy”.
They are not familiar with negative vibrations.

Truth and love
Only desire and seek after what is perfect.
There nature is of life they are always attracting life.

Truth and love
Within truth are the latent abilities of love. Love is the fuel of truth.

Truth becomes love is to say love truth. What remains after the day has past is the ever increasing glow of truth and love.

Saying goodbye, to emotional wounds

2009-04-08T14:31:00.000-07:00

Love yourself by letting go of all the emotional wounds. Being awakened, actualizing divinity is all the same concept. However, this process of actualization can not occur if there are emotional wounds constantly reminding you that you have not forgiven yourself and others.

Wounds are thieves robbing you of all joy and true happiness. There are no wounds exempt from healing. You deserve to truly be happy; this is in fact what God intents for us. He is not sitting up in the sky with a whip in hand waiting to strike you when you do something wrong.

To love yourself is not the act of adornment of the physical body. It is actually taking care of the spirit or the soul within you. Maintaining balance within is all that matters. What is the purpose of beautification to the physical body while the soul rests in complete death, sadness, and sickness. This is lack of love towards yourself. Making your soul happy is to take attention to yourself. It is to say no more, enough is enough, this situation or this person can no longer make me feel this way or that way. My emotional body is now healed and I refuse to revert back to that emotion.

Your mind, body and soul depend on you, to be free from emotional wounds. The healing of emotional wounds will cause harmony within all levels of the physical body as well as the restoration of the spiritual body. Harmony equals alignment. To have harmony within the body is to love, respect and honor the physical body which is the temple of God. You will then notice the disappearance of ailments to the physical body when the spiritual body is free. All illness derives from the lack of harmony within the mental plane.

If you say you love yourself start relinquishing those emotional wounds by way of applying ointment to those wounds until they are completely healed.

Here’s the ointment to use:

1. Don’t believe what you see is real. Don’t believe it because it is not based on truth. Truth is eternal, it never changes.

2. Believe you are worth it. Overcoming challenges means you love yourself.

3. Be conscious of what you’re constantly thinking. Evaluate the feelings behind those thoughts if they are creating goodness and life flowing energy, if so keep them. If not forgive yourself and revert back to thinking about your divine self, the self that is always perceiving beauty within all things.

4. Mark your progress
You might feel it’s taking a while; however the transformation is worth it. You are worth it. This is the process of remembering who we were with God before arriving on this earthly plane.

Freedom Rings

2009-04-06T12:41:00.001-07:00

Being completely free means being completely detached from everything.
This entails people and their mindsets, your mindsets and the every day mundane traditions you keep and feel. These feelings constrict you and you begin feeling you can’t live without these mindsets. I’m convinced that the moment you allow yourself to be set free from the thoughts that give definition to who you think you are. Particularly, who you think you are within the ‘false self’.

You know what I’m talking about, the conversation inside your head that says I am a doctor, I am to thin or fat, I am a mother or father. Being detached from matter by way of refusing to give it importance promotes easiness to the spirit.

The spirit continues to develop as one gives attention to its essence. Detachment tells the spirit that, you want to know God; God being the original essence of everything. You now begin to look at matter in a new light. Referring to God as the essence within all elements means; you have literally begun to acknowledge atoms and electrons within every substance. These atoms and electrons represent light (intelligence) and life (energetic force) within all that exists.

Detachment is the way to freedom. Jesus understood the power of detachment when he spoke these words “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many times as much in this age and, in the age to come, eternal life” Luke 18:18-20. The scripture also tell us in Matthew 6: 19-24 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal" to store up treasures in heaven means that we ought to detach our minds from the original form to the intuitive substance within us; which is God.

When you detach from the thoughts of error, emanating from the unregenerate mind or the false ego, freedom is then expressed. The spirit will intuitively begin to divide principal and falsity of worldly ambition. Detachment is key, detachment most of all is freedom to love. This freedom we embrace is that of the true essence or presence of God within each man and not of physicality. Detachment is done in the mind, we must detach from the image we have of our loved ones; in doing so this will enable us to see who they truely are. (see:http://secretstodivinemanifestations.blogspot.com/)

Make it your goal today to detach from everyone and everything.

Who are you listening to?

2009-04-01T06:56:00.001-07:00

Its time to create, its time to implement-its time to believe in yourself and listen.
Listen don’t just hear, listen, choose to listen to the voice deep within. This voice is the voice of God. This voice is located with your heart (subconscious mind).

The voice that is positively progressive. The voice that is continually increasing in dimension, depending on the truth it rests in. The voice or presence of God understands not, the reality of lack.

So I ask you to move from the valley and arise to the mountain top. The mountain top of consciousness where all things exist. The place where that which is not, can be established.

Who are you listening to?

Are you inspired by truth birthing out of the everlasting voice within you or the truth bursting out of the book of illusion? The book of illusion, where your life of falsity has been written while masquerading as your life full of glory. I’m calling illusion the false precepts written by the hand of distractions or as Charles Fillmore says thoughts objectified. These thoughts are mind projections, desiring to arise.

What a scary thought! Choose only to listen to the voice of intuition, the voice of wisdom that is not attached to the mind of this world or even his ego flooded intellect. Intuition relies on the fountain within.

Choose to listen; choose to rely; choose to move; choose to live; choose to believe that you can let go of the voice of falseness and embrace the new you that has been clothed with Christ. With Christ we are dressed in new garments. The mind has removed the linens of falsity and embraced the new linens of the continual rejuvenated aspect of life in God within.

Choose to listen, to the voice of God within.

What’s your philosophy?

2009-03-30T15:26:00.000-07:00

Everyone on this earth lives by a set of rules or by guidelines that they dictate their entire lives to. Some might feel as if they don’t because they do the day to day things they believe everyone should do. Although this is in fact true; it is still however a philosophy. It is a philosophy because we were taught by parents or parental figures the proper way to live, the proper to think and speak. This philosophy is then engrained and if opposed is considered sin, disobedience, and unlawful.

It is amazing how far the principals behind your philosophy can take you. I’m defining philosophy as a mindset acquired by beliefs, family traditions, gender and economic status, etc. Philosophy’s can be extremely strong, so strong that generations can be affected. You see every individual is entitled to his or her own mindset or living principal. Therefore each man is free, free to believe what he/she wishes.

It’s time to begin our own (divine) principals of living. If you’re like me, the thought of obeying society’s laws for proper living is hard to keep up with. I’m tired of trying to keep up with what society says. It’s tiring to constantly base your life off of someone else’s principals. It discouraging to only think the way society has trained us. It’s no longer working out. Domestication now ends.

I (We) have recently began questioning the location of the set of rules I (we are) was living by derived from. It is time to adapt principals that are eternal and based on truth. These principals are called the will of God. You see to say that you believe in God also means that you become aware of his principals which are essentially the principals that hide, latent within the ‘ideal man’ in every human soul.

The principals of God are not of the same with that of the world which is being defined here as the thoughts of error. Where the world seeks for self glorification; God seeks that every man understands the royalty within themselves. Within God’s principals man sees the ideal man for whom they truly are: Spirit and that is Divine Consciousness. In this conscious mindset a man with the principals of God respects every man while honoring the essence of God in that man.

Therefore, if your life is constantly in a state of chaos or you are just becoming tired of the ups and downs in your mind. These thoughts are destroying your life. Why not choose to adapt a new set of principals; hence a new philosophy. Stop being sick and tired; just to turn around and be sick and tired. Start thinking for yourself! Choose to bring your mind and body into oneness with God’s philosophy, today!

Stay tuned for more.

Address:To the seeker.

2009-03-22T14:35:00.000-07:00

To the one who is going beyond the form of matter but into the reality that lies within matter. To the one who is continuously looking within and not without with the intention to improve the world within themselves. To the one who is not afraid of the journey; but confident and perceptive of the meaning in the journey. This journey is self discovery. Realizing that to know thy self is to know the true essence of others. To the one that is on this path, on this consistent path seeking the mystic truth of that which is life and light.

I admire your courage

I admire your courage to leave all that you have known to be valuable.
I admire your dream to be who you truly are. I admire your ability to let nothing faze you, let nothing distract you from the ultimate goal of becoming awakened. I admire the inner work you are doing; that you think is not visible. It is visible, I can see this inner work in your smile, I hear it in your laugh and acclaim it with you.

I admire you. I look in amazement, in awe, in joy at the presence of my father God, life within your being. This presence, it creates inner peace within me continuously; reminding me that all is well. It reminds that I need not to mediate on false principalities but the truth that sustains me.

The truth that says there is no misunderstanding or short coming that can separate us from the path divine mind lay out in spirit and in truth. Let us forget not the beauty, of friendship, the lapse of time and the joyous melodies the journey brings along.

I admire, I admire the infinite spirit within you, I admire you.

With love,
Herlay

Dream for you...

2009-03-09T06:22:00.000-07:00

I want to dream for you, I have to dream,

I have to love – that you may grow and learn.

How to both dream and love.

I have to believe because you don’t believe-

I have to trust- I just undoubtedly have to dream.

My dream, your dreams are all the same-they are one in the same-intertwined.

This is why I have to fulfill so that you may realize.

Realize that your dream was always there and now able to come out-to manifest-to change lives.

I want to dream for you deep within me, you see my heart; my soul yearns to see change.

There has to be more; more to life than this; living to die with the hopes to see, God.

We must- we just have to, we must see, we must perceive what is beyond and within you and me.

Heaven is here- heaven is now-heaven is within, that is why we must dream, dream to realize –dream to accomplish-dream that others may dream.

This is the year, this is the time, this is the moment-this is the minute.

The universe, the cosmos, the world- God awaits.

We must dream for each other, we must actualize.

Peace

2009-03-04T10:49:00.000-08:00

I am at peace
I am still
I am quiet

As I hear the ocean shore clashing upon the sand while the melody of the water awakens the rocks. I am at rest at the peaceful sound of life interacting with light.

I am at peace
I am tranquil

I am at rest knowing that I am not my body, but I am divine. Lacking in nothing and complete in everything.

I am still in soul
I am at peace
I am refreshed

A feeling of serenity comes over me when I think of the future.

When I think of what is to come, I am amazed while perplexed at the journey’s end, middle and beginning. My heart smiles as I glance at perfection. The perfection of the universe; the intricate yet underlying sense of purpose of it, along with the attire of the lilies.

I am at ease
I am at peace

I am in joy, for the reason that I am is being revealed through the realization of self.

Simplicity, peace, serenity follows the identity of the I am. The I am lives in us today. The I am is ever creating without limitation. The I am is you and I.

Believe

2009-03-02T16:14:00.000-08:00

Believe in yourself
Believe in endless possibilities
Believe without a doubt that he that lives within is greater than the voice without- the voice that often speaks of falsity.

Believe in your abilities.
Believe that all areas of life you have and will conquer,
because of your inner strength.

Believe in the efforts that you are making. Don’t give up at
the thought of failure. You are never alone;
the presence of the father is always with you.

Believe the vision then visualize if you apply these
principals faithfully you will surely propel yourself into
what was meant to be.

Believe in yourself,
Believe you can never fail.
Believe that you are apart from any demeaning circumstance.
Believing that each and every surrounding thought is
a positive love language between yourself and God.

Just believe; simply trust that something great has to come out
every idea.

Believe in the triumphant you!
The You that is always prospering.

No Rush

2009-02-22T10:44:00.000-08:00

There is no rush to attain-
attainment is both practical and real.

There is no rush everything is capable of happening, the happening occurs from a place of knowing- a place of continual awareness of truth-
when rushing occurs this awareness of truth will not manifest –
with manifestation comes peace and joy.

Don’t rush

It ( process of self actualization), will happen on its own time, it’s bound to happen.
When you take your time-
Time becomes your friend and begins to work with you to complete your project.

So just listen- listen to that small voice until it becomes all that you know truth is- it is then you will hear what is next.
You may feel the listening process is taking to long, but hold on as for dear life, it will take time but you will not fall into mistakes.You will soon realize that time was just an illusion. You just cannot fail!

Don’t rush

Take joy and peace with all that you desire and you will find that destiny will unravel itself.

Uniting the eternity in man.

2009-02-13T18:25:00.000-08:00

To only reach a level where there is no offense.
Where there is no negative emotion of hatred as a result of fear, discontent as a result of lack or lack as a result of trust.

To abide in the right of life, to reign in ever increasing hope, love and joy to only reach, is what I acclaim to.

To only reach out to others and complete the one way effect of singularity and void. To only dream a new dream. To go into the heart of others and to heal is what we ultimately desire.

A dream of no separation but of togetherness and ultimate joy and desire. To enslave, only the consciousness of perfection and of unity of the mind is our intent.

To say I salute you to the man on the street. Instead of I oppose you is the goal to keep in mind.

I shake the hand of the Christ, which abides in the true presence of each man.
Underneath the long cries, there is a man who is ready, willing and able to complete the walk of life that each man aspires.

To reach, to join and to desire is the only way.

Let us reach together only to desire what is real and sufficient to the eternity in man.

Harmonization

2009-02-01T16:36:00.000-08:00

Provide harmony to your insides!

When peace is allowed to your organs there is salvation,

Salvation is regaining conscious possession of God-given attributes[1]

The message coming across and being sent out communicates a language of beauty, elegance : love.

Harmony causes peace.
Harmony is the instrument of the freedom that enables all to exists within.

Harmony is the melody of the heart the subconscious mind

The harmony within begins with the restful state of man.

This restful state occurs in the faculties of the body mind which are faith, strength, wisdom or judgment, love, power, imagination, understanding, will, order or law, zeal, renunciation, and life.

To love harmony is to love unity. Unity is the unifying force of intuition.

Take back your God given abilities by choosing to harmonize yourself from within.

Go deep inside by taking a deep breathe and while slowly releasing it begin to acknowledge the greatness within you. This greatness is the harmonizing power the causes all to exist; God.

Yes "you" can!

2009-01-26T05:55:00.000-08:00

You can do it.

You can do all things.

Anything you put your mind to, is in fact capable of happening.

Even if you have never seen, heard or accomplished
anything along the lines regarding, what you are to complete.

You can do it.

You are amazing, the very thing you often think about, you are able to do.

Your divine image chants, “You Can Do It”, "You can do It".

He that is within rushes you, to the finish line. He even goes as far as letting you see the race before it starts and when it ends. He even pushes you through all seeming issues, loses and disbelieves.

He only believes you can do it.

The light and life within is what is constantly interacting with the purpose of
reminding you that you can actually achieve.

To achieve greatness is the ability to be in touch with the inheritance promised to you.

Greatness can be achieved everyday,through the miniscule details of life.

This inheritance is from the treasure box, which represents the secret place of the heart.

You are never alone. Therefore, you can never fail. Failure implies solititude of the heart.

The secret is remembering to always listen to the small voice within.
The voice that tells you that you can in fact, do it!

That which you have been called to fulfill; you will.

What does it actually mean to be free?

2009-01-18T12:07:00.000-08:00

The Philosophy in Webster’s dictionary states freedom is: The power to exercise choice and make decisions without constraint from within or without; autonomy; self-determination.

Spiritual Masters say, freedom is substance of the truth that enables one to actually interact within and without himself with total bliss.

So how does one go about applying this freedom?

And why do we say we are free; when situations reoccur, the same thoughts of oppression and mind-sets towards them also reoccur.

Does that really mean we are free?

We pay so much money trying to figure out, a way to freedom, in actuality is it truly attained? The point is, if we are going to practice freedom or even abide in a state of freedom, there has to be stability in the decision.

This is a New Year, in the New Year we often hear resolutions however by February those resolutions are often forgotten about. Therefore this freedom we speak of is also forgotten. Jesus tells us that Christ has made us free. Galatians 5:1 states, In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free -- stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude;[1] .

What does this really mean? You see, we ourselves cause our situations by the things we attract; by way of conversation, thought and action. In this we also cause an imbalance in the realm of freedom. Freedom is a level in which one may abide, continually. This level is welcome to anyone; however one must know the mastery of permeation and stability.

Realize that what you say, and believe is able to make you free. To believe is to trust entirely in the substance embedded in something. Once feeling is added to the belief the language of the heart begins to create. Today, pay close attention to what you’re allowing in your mind.

Stand firm until we meet again

The awakening of true worship

2008-12-29T11:38:00.000-08:00

True worship begins with the awareness that God is upheld in everything.

What is awareness?

Awareness in everything that is seen, this word seen also includes spiritual and physical. For example you might see a homeless person and think it is impossible to see God.

Or you might see an angel and argue it could not be because they don’t exist in your mind. The point is what you choose to observe will guide your thoughts.
Your awareness of something brings what was just an idea to the forefront of your mind; creating direct awareness.

Direct awareness is the action of having what was on the subconscious or unconsciousness levels become an urgent substantial matter of the mind. What you focus on the most you freeze. When a thought is frozen it is not unable to move about nor can it create. It is the cosmic law that says everything is light particles (photons).

The idea of true worship emanates from the awareness of what is surrounding you. To really say you are worshiping is to honor the principal element of life(photons) in all things. True worship is the ability to see beauty, life and love in all that exists.

Now go ahead, think about it. All that is around you originates from God. Look to observe. Observe to be aware and awareness will guide you into a great meditative experience, where you experience the Now factor in all that exists.

Possiblities

2008-12-28T15:05:00.000-08:00

What if I were to tell you that
What you think is real is not; real.
In fact it is the mere illusion of false sight

You are probably asking how this could be, since the reality of
Your bills, children, responsibilities, as well as a career, is in your face.

Now you are definitely thinking this writer is completely
out of her mind. Truth is “I AM”.

What you think, feel, and act upon are the only,
attributes concerning you that appear to you as real.One will argue that emotions are real.

However these feelings, emotions, and thoughts are not reality at all.
They just present themselves as such. If they were real; they should
last a life time.

Now you are probably thinking they do, last a life time!
If they do, I ask you why some experience them differently than others.For some, the events considered as tragedy are blessings and for others it is a life of torment.

That which is real resonates in ones soul.

The only feelings emotions and thoughts that are sincere is that
of a free heart, mind, soul and spirit, reality is made known when true life is attained.

True life is attained when the mind is aligned with,the mind of Christ;within.

What kind of life?

You see many people have attained this life of freedom, where they transcribe reality for what it actually stands for. They understood that life is not just the actuality of money, longevity, children, and so on.

Awareness and perception is where truth lies.Your awareness and perception make up what you know as your definition of reality.

That is why your perception of a situation is equivalent to the outcome you receive.

Awareness is the ability to be in the present moment. Perception occurs after an event; the way you choose to define this event will become your opinion.

This opinion will then become your belief. This belief whether positive or negative is what you receive from the hand of God.The truth is the things we ought to be paying attention to we are not.I have realized, we spend too much time just existing. We need to get up and actually start living. In living we experience reality as God intends for us.

I was recently observing a conversation and the statement that came across was, “what if we are only dreaming right now?” everyone sitting at the table, froze and starting thinking. At this particular moment, I believe that everyone sitting at that table became alive, simply because they became aware.

You see awareness; reality and truth share the same attire. They are in close proximity all of the time. When the thought arose, the reactions of the people froze it was almost as if, they realized something.

I believe that something was just the beginning of a pursuit of real life. This life I speak of does not stop at financial success or material success. It is life that is lived out from the presence, which is within.

So today ask yourself the question:

What is real?

And after you answer, ask your self if what you are bearing in mind as factual is able to change. If your emotions and thoughts change, then the event you are describing as existent is not in fact true. The truth is the event has only masqueraded itself.

What is...

2008-12-22T11:00:00.000-08:00

Let things be.
Let the mind that is in me, manifest and become what is known as reality.

Let it be so.
Let the problems of this universe vanish to proclaim that the lord has come.

Let it be revealed.
Let the universe demand the “praises of triumph”
over adversity and illusion!

Let it be reality.
Let it be real, that the sick are healed and the maimed are whole.
May it be that the dream of ones is realized.

And so it is.
Understanding of divine life and light are unfolding.
Comprehension is upheld and actions flow.

To live is to love.
To love is to forgive.
To forgive is to receive.
And receiving is a gift given from the hand of God,
that is faultless, unjudgemental and full of freedom.

Truly it is.
That all that was still is.
And all that is to come is already here.
There is no future no past, but just
the present moment of bliss

Let things be.

The unfolding essence in a relationship….

2008-12-15T15:11:00.000-08:00

To have a relationship with God is to be in the presence of God.

How do you have a relationship with God?

To have a relationship with God is to first be aware that God exists.
Second, is to be knowledgeable that he exists in all things.
God exists in all living things. This awareness of his existence causes one to be conscious of all that is around you. You begin to understand that he is the source of life in all living things. This consciousness makes you notice the attributes of God the father every where you look. For example, someone might say look at this ugly lady. Your response to that statement would be extremely bizarre, since you are seeing the most beautiful individual you ever laid your eyes upon.
This corroborates with the statement Minster Y. M.Dagba said in his article “How to be in the presence of God Part 4”, “ when our awareness of God increases our experiences also increase”. Our awareness of God is what allows us to see the perfect image of God in one another.
Essentially, having a relationship with God is to have a relationship with the perfect image within one another. An intimacy with Christ overflows out of the heart of the one who does not seek to contradict himself by seeing separation. An ultimate soaring relationship with God manifests through the heart who earnestly acknowledges there is such a reality as God, within man.
This awareness of such a reality, automatically removes self. The self is the false ego removed once and for all on the cross of Calvary; however it is still determined by the law of falseness to set itself up against the knowledge of God.
You see, having a relationship with God is simple! It is the simplest activity ever. I say, this because once we acknowledge the presence of God in everything, we see God and only God. God now becomes real and an authentic relationship begins to unfold.

The light within/Part 3

2008-12-08T15:08:00.000-08:00

The light within is a kiss God gives you. This kiss like the story of Snow White, awakes you from the realm of deep sleep. This realm of deep sleep is state of unconsciousness. This state of unconsciousness is the result of what happened when our minds were diverted from truth. When we started believing we were naked (wiser than God) in the garden of Eden.

This kiss is an awakening of the divine self. However this kiss can only be done by the Prince God; he is the supplier of life to all that is living. Jesus on the cross took all sickness of mind, illness of body and all inequity away and gave us the opportunity to live fully. The prince did the same for Snow White when he kissed her. He took all inequity away and made her come to consciousness of divinity again.

When Snow White went on to get married, that was God marrying you, meaning your soul and His were united. You will then live happily ever after with the Prince, God. This is an indication that you not only begin to manifest the light that you are, but you are an eternal being.

The price has come so that you may have life and life to the full. His ultimate desire is that you abide and rest with him. As the Prince and Snow White became one through a kiss. His kiss has also brought us to that oneness. This is where we once were. We were hidden in God in Christ. Meaning we were first hidden (brought forth) by God the Life giver and (hidden) in Christ, the manifestation of our divine selves.

This life was the same life emanating from Him. You see, God can only birth God, since he is God. In the same way can humans only birth humans. We as his chosen people have been set apart to live a glorious life. A life that is like Snow White’s; perfect.

What God creates.

2008-11-30T15:39:00.001-08:00

If God were to create, how would this happen?

Do you think he would start from the inside or outside?

Starting inside would mean; atom or nucleus and starting from the outside would mean a simultaneous something one sees with the physical eye.

The questions here are interesting especially when applied to oneself. Let’s explore this passage. Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, another scripture described by David says, For it was You (God) who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother's womb.

When someone is knitting a sweater we see the thread being sown before the sweater is completed. It is the same with what David explains to us here. He tells us that God formed or knit his inward man before he gave him a form or a physical body. God creating his inward man is also to say that he created his original self; the self on the inside before the self we see with our five senses.

futhermore, it is fact that everything with a form, was first created from programmed information. This information is defined as divine; meaning originating from God. The question is, how were you created? And how does this information I state, relate to you?

One might quickly jump to the thought of there parents coming together. However, what if I were to tell you, the real essence of who you are, already existed. Another statement that might seem contentious is if your parents did not come together, you would have still been created. This idea is simple, the information you have on the inside is so important that it has to reveal itself, no matter who or what the information is unfolding out of; it has to appear.

The information you have within is first of all created by God and is perfect in everyway. This information is encoded within your authentic (the real you) self. Your authentic self (divine information) scripture explains is created to be like God. Therefore, do not live in mediocrity any longer. Trying to find out about who you truly are is to define the characters of God.

Lastly, divine information is what makes up the real you; you are created to reveal that authentic self!

The Morning Star

2008-11-19T11:16:00.000-08:00

You are as bright as the morning stars.

You are unique.

A special kind.

An immaculate blend.

A cure to all illness.

Hope to all the broken.

You are the morning star that invades this universe
with your innate power.

Even if one day you decide you do not want to actualize this beam,
your soul and its divine ability will carry out its radiance.

This light is filled with life; programmed to function according to its encoding.

Full of meaning,

Full of purpose,

Therefore, you must never be released to lack;
this lack brings the awareness submission to the unknown.

However you must always know.
For knowledge is the beginning of freedom.

When you are free, you are then released to occupy your position with
dominion, power and the truth.

Behind understanding the morning star exists.
The presence of the morning star is then all around us when you simply believe in the idea.

He keeps me in….

Oh lord you keep in,
all harms way negates me
Your ultimate desire is that I know you.

Knowing you is knowing myself.
Knowing myself is understanding the
divinity that I am and represent.

You are life and light.
You call me both life and light to this world,
for it written you are the giver of life.

Oh Lord you keep in,
that I may never fail to know.
To know the truth that is called to set man free.

The truth that defines you is the truth that speaks
of mastery of mind and perfection.
It is written that I am, that love and perfection,
since I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

I therefore thank you father for creating me,
as the source of all, as you are the pre-existing source of
all creation.

All the answers that I have been seeking
are within because you are a everlasting light
within my soul, searching; while converting darkness into light.

Father, I thank you that my soul is wrapped up in you and
can only reveal your true beauty. The beauty in me is your beauty,
sincere in faith and true in love.

In your glory I abide and find serenity.
rest for my mind,soul and body. Father I thank you for you keep me in...

The light within/Part 2

2008-10-09T08:48:00.000-07:00

The light being turned on is the reality of redemption. Redemption is defined as the act of being taken back from captivity. The death of Jesus of Nazareth on the cross at Calvary was the place we found our redemption.

You see, when we speak of the cross we tend to experience extreme sadness because we take pity on the gruesome sacrifice of Jesus. The very act of feeling pity is where we miss what really happened!

The cross of Calvary was not a place of shame, but a place of victory. The cross represents a place of rejoicing and not a place of sorrow. The illustration of the cross was and still is the picture of our redemption. The cross represents the cleansing of the mind. At the cross all erroneous beliefs were abolished and put under subjection.

The beliefs that once separated us from God, Jesus became sin for. This means he became each erroneous thought so that we would no longer have to face the mind of death. This mind of death is the mind that we received when we ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This mind is also called the carnal mind, which is under the law of sin and death.

This law represents the mind that is still in captivity. The mind under the law resides in a state of religiosity. This religious mindset is why it was so hard to for the Pharisees to believe in Jesus. The Messiah was in front of them for thirty years but they could not see him because of their strong belief system as well as their own proven facts of who, what, where, when and how the Messiah was to come.

The drama of the cross brought us to where we were supposed to be. In fact this is where Adam and Eve were, they lived in a state of constant fellowship and communion with God. Until this oneness was demolished by the act of disobedience. This disobedience awakened man’s false ego to reveal a scar which was fear and doubt. Man than cursed himself and became a tiller (receptor) of the ground. The spiritual principal regarding the receptor is the law of karma. The law of karma explains what we often hear: an eye for an eye; which is also the same meaning as you reap what you sow.

Brothers and sisters the example of the cross happened so that our divinity might be expressed. Today is the day we understand that our false ego self of null effect, has been vanquished. Our new mind and its redemptive nature has taken root.

The Light Within/ Part 1

2008-10-06T11:53:00.000-07:00

What is light? Light is what enables you to see. The light within is what enables you to see your true self. If there no light there is darkness. If there no light within man, he is blind. Blindness is ignorance and ignorance is darkness. Jesus said that if the light that is in us is darkness, how great is our darkness (Matthew 6:23).

The bible says, the Spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. Man’s Spirit is the light within man. Within man is the light of God. God brings the light within man by way of his spirit. The spirit of man is also the light or the Spirit of God. Within man is the light that is to shine within darkness. Light within man is his real entity. This light is the means to which Man should live.

In a society we pay so much attention to the exterior of everything that we do not think much about the interior. God created man in his own image (Genesis 1:26-27). The question that comes to mind is: what is the image of God? We recognize the image of God, by way of understanding the light within us.

The scriptures describe the children of God as the light of the world. We are identified as light because our true self is light. This true self is God’s image. The question is, why are we not all living in the light, if the light of God is already within us? We were all in the light as we were with God in the beginning. But our light was turned off when we ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. We partook with Adam and Eve of that tree, and by doing so we disobeyed the commands of God.

How do we turn this light back on, is the next question? This is what we will discuss in our next article.

As I Am

2008-09-30T20:44:00.000-07:00

Don’t see me with your eyes,
see me with your spirit
I am not what you see
I am not heavy or skinny, I am me.

I am divine, I have come for this time
To show you who I am, the real me is not what you can see but
what you can perceive.You try to figure me out
but I am not to be examined, I am to be known.

The same me is inside you
look see, we have different shells.
we said you are thin, I am black
we are the same, take another look while
perceiving from within.

Now look, we are the same, you are his representation
as I am his ambassador carrying his name with a different color.
Yet when it is analyzed we are hear for the same purpose
to recognize ourselves in one another.

A different shape but the same name, Christ.
He is eternal as you are eternal, the same yesterday, today and forever.
You can not die because you are not the physical, you are not
too thin, too heavy or too dark.
You are in fact perfect, a perfect being with no real color
except the color of perfection.

You are a spirit being, not to be seen but perceived with
what is called the eye of the beholder; a third eye, that sees
the true mysteries of love.

This love is a force that is able to see things for what they are.
Understanding that within all, substance of proposed reality there is
"Truth" imbedded. This love does not see separation, lack, evil or anything
of the like. It sees beauty as well as thought provoking, serene, happiness.

Therefore perceive, dwell and enjoy the sameness of our image
Let us look at each other as in a mirror and see our one true image
the image of alikeness and of love.

As I am

Poem: Today

2008-09-05T12:08:00.001-07:00

Today is a special day, a day of life, of blessing and joy.

Only truth that passes understanding can manifest in this realm we call world.

Today is a day worthy to be honored, a day of life,
excitement and peace. A day when the realization of one’s true self is manifested.

A day of life unending- a day chosen out of the book of life; to be enjoyed

A day of fulfillment, this truly is. The reaching of divinity of mind, body, soul and spirit.
