 The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream.
The oak sleeps in the acorn; The bird sleeps in the egg; and the highest vision of the soul, a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities... - James Allen

 “As you see, sense & feel your inner most desire as a place that already exists And you begin to live there every day, taking no thought for current circumstances, No power on earth can stop you from becoming that which you conceive & know yourself to be.” Jody Royée  Living Consciously
Humanity would be farther along the evolutionary arc if we had accepted one simple truth: everything we can see is an idea held in temporary form by our agreement. Change the ideas and what look fixed, falls away like ripe fruit from its tree. That is what Emerson wrote about in The Oversoul. He said we have fallen too far in love with our senses to the exclusion of our Spiritual Intelligence. If one tries to convince others that what they are looking at, they helped create, they will call you insane. We simply dig in our heels and insist on a reality that is false. I love what Ernest Holmes said and I often use this quote. In referring to the world of form he said, “it is as real as it needs to be.” I always add “to give us the experience of our ideas.” Our ideas about God, about the universe, about our origins, our inherent attributes, adds up to the realm we create. We walk around in our own consciousness, seeing through the lens of our construct. There is also a “group think” or a collective consciousness, that contains the agreements we make about what is real. For example; a long time ago we agreed that we have dominion over Nature. That has led to its near destruction due to the fact that we misunderstood what dominion really means. It connotes responsibility for the ongoing function of the whole, but was thought to mean we could do whatever we wanted with it and it would survive anyway. How wrong we were. We are beginning to change our agreement about that and the effects will be very positive. All the great teachers have told us “think about what you believe. Does it lend itself to the greater Good or does your belief promote fear and lack and ignorance?” We are either creating solutions or perpetuating problems. Affirm: “I welcome new, healthy, spiritually sound ideas about everything!” Stay tuned in, Dr. Carol Carnes  When we travel to a new place,
there won't be anything to worry about as we have a reliable map. Similarly, as we use the principles of spirituality, we will never be overwhelmed by any crisis. We will know how to face and deal with any situation. Spirituality is the practical science of life.It teaches us the nature of the world, how to understand life and live fully in the best way possible. - Amma - Mata Amritanandamayi |
