​"Take back your inner territory that you gave away to what is not you. Set your goal and then follow through ruthlessly. You may attempt to manifest out of Spirit 500 times, and fail. But what if when you get to number 501 it all snaps into place. Will you get bored doing this? Maybe, if you go back to the old definition of manifestation which locked you into physical form and made you the prisoner of matter. It is your choice. When you finally do what works you will look at all the good things in your life and say, "Wow, look at everything that's happening. I haven't done anything." But you have: the years of good, solid exercise in Spirit -- the correct identification, imagination, attunement, and action -- have led you to that essence within you. It doesn't happen by chance. It is very hard to accidentally align with the four correct actions into Spirit." John-Roger
Take back your inner alignment, the truth of who you are.

​"Most of us are reflecting life and not affecting it. Your inner speech mirrors your mind, and your mind mirrors God. If you
do not change your thoughts, you haven't changed their activity. And if you do not change their activity, the conditions of your life cannot change, for they are only bearing witness to the inner action of your mind."- Neville Goddard
Conscious co-creation.

​"With the mind, only the surface of things is known. The mind looks with eyes that see reflections. The more you revere the mind, the greater are the possibilities of your being blinded and bound by its reflection. Don't worship the mind. Worshiping the mind is a form of lower-level cannibalism because it is actually the mind worshiping itself and, eventually, eating of its own self-producing karma. When this happens, you have to go along with the mind because you created, promoted, or allowed this action.
In the mind, love is a concept. In the heart, love is an action."
-John-Roger
May we go beyond the maya, the illusions we perpetuate. May we go to the Love, the Source, the Peace that goes beyond all understanding and into the being of truth that is the core of who we really are.

"We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Meantime
within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal
beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related, the eternal ONE." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
"You will come to the point in that way of living where you'll go from the known into the unknown and expand your awareness until the unknown is known, and then it's just a matter of alignment and the unknowable pulls you in. That's my statement when I say, "Not one Soul will be lost." It will pull you in."
-John-Roger
Instead of holding with the known, the contraction, adventure out to the unknown, the expansion. In the expansion there is peace that goes beyond all understanding, the great ocean of Love and Mercy.

​"If God is going to be called forth, you sit and listen. If you get nothing and it's still, you must realize that underneath the stillness is the Creator, who is holding the stillness. So, in everything you do, whether failure or success, you must realize that God is containing and holding all of that." John-Roger, DSS
God is everything....this is something I tried to understand when I first heard the concept when I was about 10. I couldn't quite wrap my head around it. You mean God is the floor AND the ceiling? The black AND the white? I was doing the duality of this world.
Now I do a "what if?" If God is all and holding all and God is good then all things are turning us back to the good-God, even the dark turns us back to looking for the Light.
If I at least hold the attitude that all things lead back to the Heart of God, then that shifts my focus.
Now I focus on transcending the duality and try and go out beyond right doing and wrong doing. Out to Rumi's field.
May we focus on the peace, grace and healing.

​"Always say yes to the present moment. What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to what already is? What could be more insane than to oppose life itself, which is now and always now? Surrender to what is. Say yes to life-and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you."
-Ekhart Tolle
"Wherever you are is the entry point." - Kabir
Surrender to the moment and move from there.

​"To change the negative aura, you focus on the positive. You direct yourself toward the positive…you do not push away the negative. To focus on the negative and attempt to cast it out will reinforce it, and give energy to it. As you focus on the positive, as you pull the positive in in greater and stronger ways, you simply find that you have less and less room for the negative. You “image in” or imagine things as good. You see the good in yourself and others and in all situations. If negativity starts to creep in, lift above it. See the good. If you want to change from negative to positive as your primary focus in life, stop looking out at the injustices of the world, and start looking in to the God that dwells within you. The negative perceives looking out. The positive perceives looking in." -John-Roger
It's as if you open the door from going outside on a sunny day into a dark room. The light fills the room.
May you day be filled with the Light.

​"Terror is fear of the unknown. Fear is when we think something is going to happen a certain way. Terror is of the unknown. But look at the funny thinking here; if it is unknown, why have terror, why not have ignorance? Why not have doubt? Why not have anything but terror?
Terror is also usually involved with the idea of "What if they leave me?" "Oh my God what would I do?" Terror is a self-induced attachment to materiality with emotions running on top of it and a hallucination of what it might be. I have never found anything that could make me feel terror except my own imagination."
-John-Roger DSS
ALWAYS win in your fantasies.
If the negativity shows up use a pattern interrupt, deflect the thought and reframe and redirect the mind to something positive.
There are many tools that we have to move the negative to the positive. The hardest part is to actually do it.
May we have the discipline to move our creative imagination to the abundance, prosperity and riches that are the blessings that already are.
