What you really, really want

...Is peace of mind, which in fact is your natural state of being. And what opens the door to this natural state of being is... stillness.

Playing truant in the school of life delays your personal evolution

All creatures, including human beings, are here to grow, evolve and expand towards a higher consciousness. That's one of the main reasons for which we are here. But this implies diverse types of tests and experiences  along the path, including small incidents  as well as big challenges often erroneously perceived as problems, obstacles, difficulties, blocks, injustices and so on.

In fact, what you perceive as such are gifts and blessings from the Almighty, and should not be dreaded, resisted and avoided as most people do. Understand that these are necessary steps we all must go through, if we are willing to grow in knowledge, strength, wisdom, understanding, self mastery or even faith; and so, get ready for the next level of higher consciousness.

The majority of people would like life to be as a long calm and quiet river without any disturbance, so that they may enjoy it more fully. They believe that the unique purpose of life is to make human beings happy during their entire journey on earth, by insuring that every possible unwanted condition is put out of equation.

Only a few dare to challenge themselves by facing the difficult conditions of life with the conscious intention to exceed their current limits, and grow, up to a superior level of their consciousness. Maybe intuitively they know that there is not another way towards spiritual growth and evolution.

However, happiness is not the main purpose of human existence. Of course, enjoying from time to time happy events that delight your soul for a moment can be a good thing. But, such circumstances are always ephemeral by nature, like anything else in this dimension of life. So, they come and go, but never last forever.

The main purpose of life however, as stated at the beginning, is to make you grow, evolve, and expand unlimitedly, through all the exams presented to you along the path, in the form of challenges of all kinds. Happiness may delight you; that's true. But, by itself alone, you cannot achieve the spiritual growth and evolution you seek. 

And, if you'd like to have an idea of what your current level of self mastery and spiritual growth is, just observe how you react to the present conditions and circumstances of your life. The feedback you get from yourself like that is an accurate indicator of your current state of mind, as well as your spiritual level. This test will always reveal you the truth about yourself.

As such, life can be compared to a school in which we learn new lessons, that prepare us everyday for the next class, the next year. But if, all year long, we keep playing truant, miss and avoid important courses, we will not catch the essential lessons we are supposed to learn through these courses and pass the final exam that opens for us the door to the next class.

However, it is what we do all the time, when we resist the challenges of life which, like school, gives us new and important lessons every single day, through people, events and circumstances. But, these lessons are so well wrapped and deeply hidden in them that, most of the time, we focus only on forms.

We keep complaining about appearances, or  what is, erroneously perceived as threatening, while in fact these are bearers of lessons for us to grasp. Therefore people, events and circumstances come to you as messengers or teachers, not as ennemies whose mission is to hurt and push you down.

So, instead of joyfully and gratefully welcoming situations without any preconceived idea, and open mindedly be willing to learn from them in order to achieve a greater understanding that leads to a higher knowledge, we resist. Because we believe that life is unfair and against us.

Therefore, we do whatever we can to avoid or escape from people or situations we resent and dread.  But the fact is, as long as we behave like that, situations we resist cannot change; just as students who play truant cannot pass exams and enter the next class. That is, until they change their mind and decide to attend the courses and learn the lessons of the current class, they cannot move to the next.

In fact, situations are not meant to change externally. Change, instead, must come from you, in terms of  understanding and inner growth, before new challenges can be presented to you. That means, you have to become strong, spiritually speaking, to the extend that you no longer perceive conditions as separate, but as integrate parts of who you are now.

Today, take the decision to change your mind about people, situations, events and circumstances of your life.Remember, what is is, but the choice is yours; the choice to react  according to who you are. Decide you will no longer perceive them as separate entities, obstacles, blocks, or threats. But as blessings and opportunities to learn and evolve. And, with more and more understanding, by choosing love you would move towards higher levels of consciousness.

Once you've learned the lessons from a specific level of consciousness, situations will change by themselves and open the door for new ones in the same class or the next. It is not another way around. There is no escape, and the only result you get when playing truant, resisting and refusing to learn your lessons, is but a useless delay in your personal growth and evolution.

This, by the way, is not wise. Because when you do, you'll keep living the same situations over and over again, until you learn the lessons deeply hidden in them. These lessons, however, are delivered for your highest good. For in its infinite wisdom, life knows you must be well prepared and become strong, before you move foreward to the next level.

God knows all your impatience, frustration and anger. But, He's got also the whole picture; meaning,  the challenges waiting for you ahead, in your next classes. And because He loves you more than anything, He prepares you to be ready first, before you face those next challenges.

But, it is important to remember that you are not alone on the path of your journey to higher consciousness.God, through the Holy Spirit is forever present in you, providing you with continuous support and assistance.

That is the job of the Holy Spirit in you; to guide you and help you to catch the hidden lessons of your situations, so that you can move forward. But you also have an important responsibility in this process. It is to ask.

To do so, you must know what to ask,  how to ask, when to ask, and to whom. Asking is not as easy as  people think. If you are not clear at this point, you shouldn't even try to ask for anything. Because risks are that you get opposite results from your "bad" requests.

According to the bible, there is a major condition to perform before formulating any demand. In Matthew 21:22, this condition  is as follows:

"You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it."

"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

You've got it! This major condition is belief, or faith that you have already received whatever you ask in prayer. But, what is it that you really ask for? What do you really need on your path to a higher conscousness?

In truth, the first thing you should ask from the Almighty is faith. For when you have faith,  you get clear about any situation; you get light. It is what you really need, in order to achieve the state of clarity necessary to learn your lessons.

Now that you know what to ask, when to ask then? You ask only when you are in a state of absolute relaxation, stillness, peace of body and mind. Call it the vortex or whatever. Anything you do out of this state, with a  trouble mind, leads directly to failure and disappointment.

But, how do you ask more effectively? You do it by genuinly giving thanks and gratitude that it is so, and living according this truth. You give thanks to whom? Of course to God, the Almighty, All That Is, through the Holy Spirit which is in you.

Only the Holy Spirit's voice can be understood by God, the Father. The Holy Spirit is the bridge between the Creator and you. You are not pure enough to get in touch with the Almighty, and all your efforts in trying to address directly your pryers and your gratitude to Him, will be vain.

There is still a lot to say about this communication between you and God. This, however, is the big picture.

Like a thirsty fish in the water

If God, the Almighty, is All That Is, that means nothing exists apart from Him. Wherever you are in this lifetime, whatever your conditions may be, understand that your are forever in God, as He is in you, like a fish in the water. Have you ever seen a thirsty fish in the water?

If you are surrounded by Love Itself , why then do you feel afraid, worried, anxious, powerless, inferior, not enough, not loved, poor, insecure, and so on? Doing that, can't you realize you are behaving like a firsty fish in the water?

The main reason is that you keep identifying yourself with your body alone.However, you are more than just your body; you are also a spiritual being, the beloved Son of God, living with Him for eternity. Therefore, stop selling yourself short, by reducing yourself to your physical aspect alone, which is what makes you feel deprived, powerless and insecure.

Once and for all, understand that whatever they may be, your conditions are just conditions; no more, no less. And, as such, they are neutral , until you judge and put a label on them. Of course, they exist for a reason that, maybe, you could not understand. But, first of all, they are related to your body which, by the way, is not who you are. 

Therefore, never again identify yourself with them again.

Thank you

To be genuinly grateful for everything is one of the best ways to return love to God.

Desires are sotck of energy

The more unfullfilled desires you have, the more energy you've got to keep you moving forward in life. In general, people make the mistake of getting frustrated, worried, anxious, unhappy and even afraid about their non manifested desires, not knowing that this is for their highest good.

Your essential nature

"No sacrifice, no service, no service, no satisfaction, no satisfaction, no happiness" (Guy Finley)

The essence of a flower is its perfume or fragrance, which differs from one flower to another. And, like a flower, human being also has an essence or essential nature,  inherent to who he is, at the core of his being. This essence is the Spirit of God in him.

But, contrary to human being, the flower does not have an ego and, for this reason, does not produce perfume for itself. Instead, all it does, is delivering unconditionally its fragrance for the appreciation of other creatures, including human beings.

That is, the flower is not so selfish to keep its fragrance just for its own use. Its joy lies in giving it away, all day long, to whomever is willing to appreciate its beautiful perfume. That is its job, and the reason for which it has been created.

Human beings had also been created for the same reason, which is to share unconditionally their essential nature, for the benefit of others. This essential nature is made up of qualities such as kindness, love, understanding, patience, peace, help, support, happiness, of his soul, joy, time, appreciation, gratitude, forgiveness.

But unfortunately, many people have been deviated from this destiny by their ego and put themselves and their interests at the center of their life; anybody else being considered as secondary. As a result, unhappiness has become their daily companion.

You have been created to serve and give unconditionally what you truly are to others. It is in this condition alone that you can experience it yourself, not another way around. The flower, however does not have such an opportunity; all it does if giving freely.

The most important in life

In life, what is for you the most important?

1. God: All That Is; Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omnipotent; Love; Joy; Abundance; Life, etc. God Is the only reality there is, has ever been, and will ever be. He is the stream of life you must go with. He Is the tree and you are the branches. So, like branches and the tree, your separation from God, is your death. The first death being psychological as you feel insecure, lost, unhappy, poor, not loved, powerless and so on, due to your feeling of separation with God, Who only Is, and nothing else.
2. Who we really are: We don't know it, but who we are is an absolute and perfect reflection of God. Nothing can be more important that being it and having this knowledge. And, from our part, only one thing should and must be done: manifesting gratitude to our creator moment to moment, for being who we are;
3. Knowledge: Knowing that God loves you, unconditionally and forever, gives you an immense joy. Because you understand that whatever occurs, comes from love, and can be only for your highest good. Also, you understand that the only reaction worthy of coming from you in return, is one of gratitude, and love. But, never a reaction of resistance to what is, which is a denial of God's infinite wisdom.
4. Life itself: it is simply the fact to be here now, able to appreciate the beauties and blessings available all around us with the magnificent five physical senses the Almighty has provided us with. Although very close to us, these are no longer paid attention to by many, lost are they are in their mind, in search of  what themselves consider to be more valuable than the paradise they live in;
5.  Good health : This is the most important thing ever, on the physical plane, and the necessary condition to perform if you are to enjoy life. Anything else is accessory.
6. Joy & Happiness: Whatever people are doing, they do it because they think it will make them happy. But the thing is, nothing outside will ever make you happy. Happiness is inside of you; it is at the core of your being, your true nature, and who you really are. But, keep looking for it outside and be sure you will never find it. Happiness is inherent to you, like the perfume of a beautiful flower, and  the flower cannot smell its own perfume. Its happiness lies in generously and unconditionally share it with other creatures all around. But, contrary to the flower, human being is capable of feeling his own happiness. The condition, however, is to share, like the flower, his happiness with others, in order to feel it inside of himself. Give freely and unconditionally your true nature and your qualities (joy, happiness, kindness, patience, peace, abundance, beauty...) if you want to experience them. That is the secret. 
7. Enjoy the trip: Don't be attached to the destination. There so many beautiful things to enjoy and appreciate alon the way. Go for them my friend, and enjoy! 
8. Others:  Someone said: "life is not about you, it is about life itself, or others" And: " there is only one person in the room. It is you, meaning, others". Another one said: "no sacrifice, no service; no service, no satisfaction; no satisfaction, no happiness". These affirmations are quite true.  And Jesus said: "As you'd like to be done onto you, do onto others".

Stop identifying yourself with your ego

You are a multidimentional being, although, like an iceberg, only a tiny part of it is perceived through your physical senses. Don't get confused about it, and never accept to be identifyed with this insignificant part of you. You are much more than that, and much more than you would ever imagine.

The 1/10 part of you would like you believe it is what you are, so that when it is happy, you become also; when it not satisfyed, you are not also; when it is frustrated, angry or afraid, you are also. It is a liar, and you must always stay alert and on your guard, in order to prevent this inferior nature from taking control over you.

To do that, you must become your own observer, in everything you do. You must become the watchman of your mind, and not be totally lost in your actions and reactions in the game of life. That does not mean opposing resistance to your inferior nature, called ego; no. That means just paying attention to what is going on inside of you, without any blame or judgement, and choose to act according to your true nature.

Your inferior nature is like a big hole that can never be filled. Even worse, the more it gets, the bigger it becomes. If you don't get control over yourself, you will end up to a state of complete slavery, always running incessantly after all kind of stuff, money, relationships, fame, and so on.

In the scriptures, it is said: "No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money". That is the truth. For this reason, every time ask yourself over and over: "who am I serving in this moment, is it the spirit of God in me, or my agoistic self?".

When you have found the answer, act according to the Truth you know about your true Self, which is the Spirit of God in you.

There is only one version of yourself

Most people do not like the kind of person they are at one point of their life. They always feel inferior or not enough worthy, compared to others around them that seem to be more blessed and more lucky than they are. And, doing so, they make themselves miserable their entire life.

The truth, however, is that they can only be but who they are right now, no more no less, and not who they would like to be. They don't understand that they are a specific version of God and no one, in the entire universe, can be comparable to them.

The point is that you are who you are, and you must accept and love yourself as well as your life just as it is, without condition.  And your life is about anything related to you, such as  your body, your wife, your children, your family and relatives, your friends, your colleagues, your job, your home, your car, your failures, your successes, your weaknesses, your strengths, etc.
Whatever is related to you is part of you, and has contributed to what you are in this moment. And, denying a part it is denying your entire being. Your wholeness then is about your present reality, and nothing can be missing to you. That is, if you loose one leg right now, you are still whole, even without that leg, because your wholeness is about who you are right now, and it is perfect.

From another point of view, if you consider yourself to be a spirit, and not a body, it is evident that whatever occurs to your body cannot affect your spirit which therefore remains whole forever. You see, the meaning of your life depends on the perspective from which you look at it, whatever may happen to you.

From today, the decision to give a positive meaning to the circumstances of your life belongs to you. And what was considered as "bad" before has now become the best thing that could happen to you. Are you ready to  accept this?

Just believe that it is so

God's love for His son
Is unconditional and eternal
And everything that happens
Is for his highest good

The son may not understand this truth
And even does not have to understand
For this is not his business
But that of the Holy Spirit

Who Knows this truth
And Is  also the only One
Having received from the Father
The gift of judgement

The business of the son
Is simply to believe that it is so
Through an unshakable faith
Despite any other external suggestion
Contrary to this truth

From this clear understanding
Proof about truth is no longer required
Now the only thing that really matters
Is the state of relief, peace and freedom
That has become his

This inner state of being
Is indeed what the son needs first
Before any accomplishment
Can take place outside

But striving for the reverse
Is putting the cart before the horse
Is swimming against the current
Or expecting to reap without sowing

This is a grave attempt
To violate the natural laws
That govern the universe
And this can work but
Only against you
