The guide to the final destination of your life trip

Getting prepared for any Trip
Implies that you already know
What your final Destination is
Or you won't Recognize it
And Stop once you get there

Like in the long Trip of Life
You must firstly determine
What your final Destination is
Knowing that every single Day
You move step by step towards it

Once your Destination is determined
You must Carefully Chose and Take with you
Only whatever is necessary for your Travel
According to your Plans and Realities ahead
And that will not serve you are left behind

However during your life Trip
You can be confronted to all kind of Troubles
Whose purpose is to Distract and delay you
Then lead you to Despear and Confusion

It is exactly at this precise moment
That you must Remember your Purpose
In order to be able to Resume your journey
And keep moving to your final destination

But in order to do it more effectively
Also Remember that a Presence Is standing near you
Which has always been and will always be there
Ready to Help you arrive at Destination
If only you can completely have Faith and Trust

So that when Troubles come and they will
Just as they did with the Apostles in the boat with Jesus
Just as they do when you become like a Thirsty Fish in the water
Just as they do when you get Confused due to some loss
Or for not finding the Solution of a specific Problem
Just as they do when you feel Trapped like a Fly in the glue or the web

In this case one important thing to Remember
Is to never Deal with Problems which are but pure Distractions
By giving them your Attention and trying to Resolve them
Which anyway is giving them a Power that in fact they don't have
And invariably buying more of the same with your Attention
Which is a universal Currency capable of buying almost anything

Know that Stillness brings Peace and Clariry in Shady waters
And that Clarity in its turn provides the Vison you really Need
You don't know it yet but what you Really Seek
And you should Focus your Attention on exclusively
Is this Presence of God in you through the Holy Spirit
Your Guide and the Answer to any Problem you'll ever face
And without Whom access to the Kingdom is impossible

Thus you need Faith and Complete Trust in Him.
May this be your first Prayer!

Never again

Never again
Blame someone or something
Or Complain about anyone or anything

Doing so
Is denying Responsibility for your Life
And considering yourself to be the Victim
Of someone or something outside
Thus acknowledging their Power over you

Never again
Judge or Condemn
Anyone or anything

Doing so
Is attempting the impossible challenge
To Separate your Self from the Whole
And considering the world with all its content
To be Real and phenomenons external to you
Forgetting there is no such thing as Out There
While everyone and everything
Are merely Projections of your own Mind
And exist just because you Are

Never again
Fear anyone or anything

Doing so
Is Accepting to be afraid of your own Image
Or fearful of your own Shadows and Reflections
Forgetting the external world is like a Giant Miror
That simply reflects the content of your mind

Never again
Resist What Is
Related to anyone or anything

Doing so
Is an attempt to Swim against the Current
An adventure that cannot be successful
And leads to useless Frustration and Despair

Never again
Take anything in life too Seriously

Doing so
Is strongly Believe
That the world you perceive is Real
Forgetting it's merely a Dream

Never again
Consider your Self
To be a Body

Doing so
Is limiting your Self
To the tiny and visible part of the Iceberg
Or the Marvellous and Unlimited Being you Are
Created in the Image of the Father Himself

Never again
Focus your Attention
On Things you don't Want
You Know it by the way you Feel

Doing so
Will Attract Them into your life
Instead Contemplate What you Really Are
In Everyone and Everything
Knowing that not being a Body
You really Need Nothing
The Kingdom of Heavens
Being already Yours Forever

Never again
Give Anything whatsoever
Permission toTrouble your Mind
And let yourself be Identified with it
Through your Thought, Feelings or Emotions

Doing so
Is losing Control and Power
Thus letting Mind become your Master
Remember that you are not Thought, Feelings or Emotions
And that Attention, Stillness, Self Observation, Presence, Silence
Remain your Keys to Peace

Never again
Take anything in life
For Granted

Doing so
Is a lack of Gratitude
For all your Blessings
And particularly for Who You Really Are
So Remember to constantly and consistently
Give Thanks to The Almighty
And even though you don't know Why
God Does

Never again
Waste uselessly your Cosmic Energy
In Negative Thoughts, Feelings, Emotions and Deeds

Doing so
Is altering the Quality of your entire Life
Including Health, Joy, Happiness and Peace
That depend totally on this Cosmic Energy

Never again
Forget Who You Really Are

Doing so
Is taking the risk to live Randomly
And be Lost in the Net of your Mind
With all the Consequences this implies

Never again
Count or rely on your Conscious Self
To be Free from the Prison of your Mind

Doing so
Is Believing and Hoping that
That which keeps you captive in Prison
Can also be your Savior; that's a lie
Count Only on the Holy Spirit in You
To Set you Free

Never again!

Problem of identification

One of the biggest challenges we encounter, as human beings, is to identify ourselves with who we really are. Most of the time, there is the ascendancy of the ego or the false self on  our mental attitude, then in reactions to life in general.

The ego uses our physical senses to let us perceive the world as it wishes, not as it is in reality. Reality is not of the domain of physical senses, just as your True Self is not. Your Real Self is of the domain of faith.

Human being is at the middle of two influences, the Holy Spirit and the ego. Your identification to one or another of these two influences has a significant impact on your mental attitude and on your life in general.

You must identify with Truth, your real self, your true nature, not with the ego, no matter what your physical senses suggest.

Your self realization in 2012

The purpose of the seed is to grow in order to become a plant. The plant, later, will give birth to beautiful flowers that, in turn, will  bring joy to men and women who appreciate them so much. That is perceived as a service to the world. Another seed of a different species will grow into a big tree which later will nourrish people with its delicious fruits or provide shelter to birds and wood to people.

As human being, you  have also a purpose here on this planet. It is to awaken from the dream you call life and and get back Home, in the fullness of who you really are through. This is done through the realization that, in fact, you are already at Home  in  God; not sometime in the future, but now,  in this very moment.

This realization is possible only through forgiveness and love of whatever occurs in your life, in the form of people, events or circumstances.These are blessings for you, as they let you know what is going on in you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to know it and forgive the world as well as yourself.

Instead of resisting what you perceive and judge as bad, welcome it and be grateful . Now, you can use it as a means to find your way back home through forgiveness and love. God loves you and give you another chance and opportunity to save yourself and the world, with the help of the holy spirit.

My wish for you this new year is that forgiveness and love become for you like second nature, so that you finally realize that you are already free, perfect, whole, loved, and at home with the Father Who Is forever with you.

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.

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

Forgiveness as medicine for peace of mind and healing

You are a spiritual being, using a physical body. As such, you must seek mostly what is spiritual, not the reverse. Don't forget your main purpose here, which is to use the world as a means for getting back home, through forgiveness and love. But, there is something very important to remember. It is that you cannot do it alone, without some help. This help is given by the Holy Spirit in you.

The Holy Spirit is your savior, because he knows everything about your life and is able to do for you what you cannot do for yourself. That is why you must leave the driver's seat of your life and completely rely on him, instead of counting on your pitty self for sustanaible solutions to your problems .

Joy, peace or love cannot precede forgiveness, just as healing cannot precede the treatment of a disease. That is impossible. Forgiveness, which is the medicine of your soul to heal your shady  mind, must come first, before healing can take place in the form of peace, joy, etc.

It is only when your mind is healed, that the experience of something else can follow. That means, your other needs are fullfilled after the appropriate state of mind is achieved.  Nothing can be found in shady water,  quite as nothing constructive can go out of a disturbed spirit.

So stillness, which is  for water what forgiveness is for the mind,  is required, before clarity may come and enable you to find what you have been searching  for so long, the Holy Spirit; the solution to all your problems, which has always been there, waiting  for you quietly, patiently and lovingly.
 
The only reason you weren't able to find Him, up to this moment, is merely because you continued with  excitement to disturb the water of the river (your mind) with all your unconscious negative thoughts, instead of calming down, letting go and relax, in order to achieve the stillness state that brings clarity and healing.

 "Seek first the Kingdom of God and everything else will be added onto you". Realize that the key to the Kingdom is forgiveness, through which  clarity, love, joy, happiness, good, kindness, peace, gratitude, appreciation, charity, satisfaction and so on, can be found. As soon as you unlock the door, you can then experience all other benefits.

The mistake most people do is seeking the benefits first, in form of acquisitions, for instance. However, in this way, it is but putting the cart before the horse. God, All That Is, should be your main center of interest, before anything else. Consequently, love Him unconditionally and, let the Holy Spirit guide you, as you don't know how to do.  It is in this condition only, that the rest (health, relationship, acquisitions...) can follow.

The fact is, when you put something else before God, it will take time to come into manifestation. As a result , you become frustrated, anxious, worried, unhappy, disappointed, etc. And, due to the law of attraction, the more you feel that way, the more you become so, and the less you have chance to get what you want.

By yourself you'll never succeed

You've tried all the methods of success and healing that have come your way, hoping to achieve the results you want internally and externally. But none of them seems to really work, and none will not.

The thing is, you did not create yourself. You do not know who you are, and how you work. How could you drive a car if you didn't learn to drive one? It is even worse for a blind man to attempt to do so.

The easiest way is to leave at the driver's seat someone who knows how, and who will teach you to do so. As human being, you have been given a teacher by God. This teacher is the Holy Spirit. Ask for His advice and help in whatever situation you may be. He will drive, he will show you the way, and you will succeed.

The way to change things that do not please you

Wayne Dyer, a famous american author said that when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. That's true, but not complete. Because there is something very important which is missing here.

The fact is, Wayne doesn't tell us how to change the way you look at things in order to change them. But I have got some clarity about this in the Course in miracles. According to the Course, only true forgiveness can make you see things differently.

It is only when you forgive truly and let the Holy Spirit see and interpret things for you that they can change and look different. That's the way. But, on your own, it is almost impossible!

You stand between two voices, which one do you listen to?

Problem:

You are alone - You are sick - You have no job - You are broke - You don't have the promotion you derserve - You have lost a dear one - You are homeless - You feel stuck - You experience a feeling of injustice, etc.

Solution: apply to your problem the knowledge you have about Who You Are.

Interpretations:

1) First, know that it is not You, having these problems, but your ego. Problems are of the ego, not of You. Miracles however are of You through the Holy Spirit. Look therefore at the miracles, not the problems.

2) Second, Who you are is powerful, limitless and far beyond any form of problem.

3) The truth is that, because you listen to your ego, it wants you to believe that You are what it is, which is WRONG!

4) You are forever safe in the Almighty God, you Father. Nothing in the entire universe can hurt you. Never!

5) You are eternally blessed, loved and loving.

6) Both problem and solution come together. One is the grievance the ego makes you have when you listen to it, the other is the miracle behind, when you listen to the Holy spirit's voice.

7) You don't see the big picture, due to your limited sight. That's why you must have faith and trust in the Holy Spirit.

8) You stand at the middle of two influences, the Holy spirit and the ego. One is very noisy and quick to speak. You generally listen to it as it uses your limited physical senses to convince you of the truth about what you perceive, but which is far from reality. This entity is the ego. The other, known as the Holy Spirit, is very soft and infinitly patient and loving. He waits patiently and lovingly until you turn to His side to listen to Him. He is never tired of waiting for you. Whenever you want and decide to listen, He is ready to speeak to you. Never angry at you, never resentful, He will never abandon you because of your stupidity. Never. He knows who you are and He understands your difficult dilemma.

9) When man is in order, so becomes the world.

10) God loves you eternally.

11) "They that be with us are more than they that be with them".

12) You should let it sink, as it wants you to be assimilated to it

13) Notice the blessing in everything, big and small...

Come from the inside to meet the outside

When you go out at night and try to find something in the dark because you cannot see, what do you do? Usually, you take your lamp; right?

What is darkness in your life? Darkness is made of all your seemingly troubles and problems. And to see clear, you take your lamp to see them clearly as they are: nothing!
Your lampe?

Laugh at your temptations

If you think that going to church once a week, or praying three or five times per day are enough and will save you from evil, you are making a big mistake. Understand that evil never sleeps, nor goes on vacation. Constant and never ending prayer, meditation and connection to God should, therefore, be your moment to moment habits.

Temptations are like traps, waiting for you at every corner of the street. But if your connection to God or the Holy Sprit is not strongly maintained, you will get trapped all the time. And the more trapped you get, the more difficult your release from the evil's web will be.

You get trapped by becoming angry, furious, sad, anxious, afraid, jalous, etc. You get trapped when you hold grievances against someone or something. You get trapped when you feel poor, abandonned, alone, or not loved, etc.

In a word, anytime you act or react negativeley to someone or something, you've got trapped. And generally, this is also followed by a negative emotion in you, that makes you feel bad. This is so because you have made an erroneous judgement which is far from the truth about this person, yourself, or this thing.

Be vigilant and alert, therefore, about all the traps that surround you. And this should not be a periodic or a from time to time endeavour. It is a permanent task. Because as long as you live, temptations will always be on your way.

There will never be a moment where you will be without them. Night and day, they are part of the illusions which you call life. One of their main objective is that once you get trapped by believing in their reality, you become also attached to them. And this attachment is at the origin of your suffering.

To have peace and happiness then, release yourself from your attachment to this shadow life by laughing at all the traps that seem to threaten you. They want you to take them seriously, through this attachment, so that you suffer and feel powerless. But instead of doing that, ignore them. See them just as the mere smoke they are.

Again, laugh at them; laugh at anything that seems to bother you and refuse to behave as they want you to do. Their objective is to make you feel trapped, prisoner and afraid. But you can set yourself free by turning your back to them.

Remember one thing. Nothing, outside of you, really exists. Every person, everything, is merely your own reflection. And if you can fight against your shadow, you can also fight with your outer life, events, people ans circumstances. The implication of this assertion is that whatever you do, you do it to yourself.
