The Swastika

The Swastika is of course a sacred symbol.  Unfortunately, it was made infamous by the Nazis.

~

Like the Christian cross, it is formed by two intersecting lines.  The right angle turns in those lines indicate that the path to God is not a straight line.

Be prepared to change.  Evolution means change.

Letting Go

~

Sometimes in life you just need to let things go.

~

You cannot always hold on to all your dreams.  When it involves a loved one, it can be particularly difficult to let go.

~

To just tell yourself you are letting go is really a lie.  At such times, go deep within and find the place where nothing is held on to.

~

At the depth of your being, there is no holding.  It is a place of eternal peace and rest.  Cultivate your awareness of that.

~

This is called salvation.  It is not an attitude.  It is much deeper.  It is a state of being… a state of physiology.

~

Be in the world, but not of it… not lost to it.

~

Love from that level is the highest and truest form of love.

~

Having attained that, you are still in the world of holding on, but you have not lost yourself to it.

Evolution Means Change

~

“You can’t cross a sea by merely staring into the water.” – Rabindranath Tagore

~

To conceptualize is easy.  To actualize is challenging.

~

Everyone conceptualizes their own greatness.  Few actualize it.

~

Deep inside you are great.  Now just live up to it.

~

You do know what that means… what that looks like… or at least you have a pretty good sense of it.  To be great, simply do your best to live up to that sense.  From there, the clouds will part and the sense will open with greater and greater clarity.

~

Yet be fore warned:  The world is not as you have been lead to believe.

~

Evolution means change.

~

Be open to change as you live more and more from the depth within.

The Life You’ve Imagined

“It’s time to start living the life you’ve imagined” – Henry James

~

This is a nice enough quote.  But what do you imagine?

~

Most think of the surface but I encourage you to think of the depth… qualities like integrity, wisdom, soul, fiber, etc.

~

What you live on the surface is unimportant in contrast to what you are living deeper within.

~

Imagine that!
