A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world.
As we grow in higher consciousness, we discover that it is more important to be the right person than to find the right person.
Everyone and everything around you is your teacher.
If you want those around you to act in a more loving and conscious manner, act in a way that helps them to do so.
You are not responsible for the programming you picked up in childhood. However, as an adult, you are one hundred percent responsible for fixing it.
Conscious people always have a choice of whether to try to modify the actions of people around them or to change their response to the incoming stimuli.
I am discovering how my consciousness dominating addictions create my illusory version of the changing world of people and situations around me.
Whenever you feel upset, take full responsibility for the emotions that you are experiencing. Get to work as quickly as possible identifying the programming, or the addiction, that is leading you to reject what other people are saying or doing.
Whenever you’re unhappy, your emotions are telling you that the people or things around you are not conforming to your vision of the world, or the way you think things should be.
Happiness happens when your consciousness is not dominated by addictions and demands – and you experience life as a parade of preferences.
I am freeing myself from security, sensation and power addictions that make me try to forcefully control situations in my life and thus destroy my serenity and keeps me from loving myself and others.
Everything is a gift of the universe -even joy, anger, jealously, frustration, or separateness. Everything is perfect either for our growth or our enjoyment.
To be upset over what you don’t have is to waste what you do have.
We always have enough to be happy if we are enjoying what we do have...
To see your drama clearly is to be liberated from it.
I have everything I need to enjoy my here and now – unless I am letting my consciousness be dominated by demands and expectations based on the dead past or the imagined future.
How soon will you realize that the only thing you don’t have is the direct experience that there’s nothing you need that you don’t have?
I feel with loving compassion the problems of others without getting caught up emotionally in their predicaments that are offering them messages they need for their growth.
All the study and effort toward higher consciousness can be eliminated if we do but one thing; Love it All.
Serenity is the end – and serenity is also the means – by which you live effectively.
