​"The very foundation for all of successful manifestation is finding who you are in your essence. And once you’ve found that, that already contains everything that you could wish for on a feeling level. So you then – whatever you attain then- comes out of this state of fullness, not out of a state of lack." - Eckhart Tolle
Inside is the source and the action.
From Essence into form.

​Happy 86th birthday to my dear friend John-Roger. Thank you for showing me that the magic is real.
"One day, you may realize that you have become the alchemist of your own being and that the gold of your being is present. That is not gold like we think of gold metal here. It is much rarer. You can eat of it and drink of it, and it will sustain you through anything. It is the gold of that spiritual form that you are." ~ John-Roger

​"When we define "manifestation" as "appearing physically," we are only taking into account physical forms, objects. But successful manifestation is only complete if it results in a change in consciousness. That change of consciousness, in turn, is the realization that the essence of what we sought in a physical form is actually inside of us. "Having" doesn't mean possessing a physical object. It means no longer experiencing the need." John-Roger, DSS
Go into the essence and experience the magic and beauty of your life that is always at hand.
Peace be still.

​"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.

​“My formula for success was very simple: Do whatever is put in front of you with all your heart and soul without regard for personal results. Do the work as though it were given to you by the universe itself - because it was.”
― Michael A. Singer
Believe that what ever is present is lining you up for good. It is a process of being present with what is underlying the all. It can be the quiet in the storm, the transcendent moment. Rise above the duality and merge with the all..
Peace be still.

​“Sorrow prepares you for joy. It violently sweeps everything out of your house, so that new joy can find space to enter. It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart, so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place. It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place.”
― Rumi
Much Light and Love to Ruth Bader Ginsberg and her Soul's journey home.

"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.
