Living YOUR Authentic Life There is not a “single” template to Heaven Who are You? Can you tell when you are BEing your most authentic? Can you tell when you are sculpting who you are in order to fit in or meet someone else’s expectation(s)? Can you hear the desires of your heart and soul? Moment to moment? Do you honor your heart and soul’s inspirations … moment to moment? There is no template to heaven. Not in the sense that you have to be more “righteous” in order to “get into heaven.” There is not a single attribute that is “required” for you to experience Heaven, except perhaps, Love. And more specifically, Self-Love. Unconditional Self-Love. Heaven or Hell is always experienced in this now. There are millions of people who will experience Hell today. Right now. And likewise there are millions of people who are experiencing Heaven today, right…

Forgiveness … giving up all hope for a better past Set yourself free We could call this the self-love blog. Forgiveness is a powerful tool to restore your ability to love yourself. But let’s start with those people in our lives that we haven’t forgiven. Perhaps there are several. Are there people in your past that you feel may have taken malice out on you? Perhaps it was your parents? Or perhaps you are very angry toward someone who has unexpectedly left you? Ether personally, or perhaps they passed away without saying goodbye? Perhaps they left you holding the bag? Or perhaps your lover cheated on you? Or you cheated on your spouse? Or … or … or … For myself, I have had to forgive several people in my life. Well, I didn’t have to forgive them. But in truth, it would just be a matter of time before I got…

Look again … with fresh eyes Both light and shadow are the dance of Love. ~ Rumi As you evolve your consciousness, you can re-evaluate your past. There is something about the vibration, or frequency, of your consciousness, that literally acts like a lens, a karma lens perhaps, that filters what you see. In other words, on first observation, it might seem that angry people are just plain mean. And from an experiential perspective, they can seem that way. A “truth” of sorts. But evolve yourself, and then look again, and there is a whole other story to tell.My father was a very intense man. He had a fire for God anchored in his core. When he spoke of God, he would well up in tears. He had a very fierce faith. He easily made the top local church officials look like slackers. The church officials never welled up with…

Healing our relationship with Love The notion of Love, in a general sense, can bring all sorts of reactions. There are those that cringe at the thought of giving Love another go. There are those that see Love as a romantic relationship. There is an arena of Love, often experienced through the practice of Tantra, that might be thought of as a deep communion with another. And, perhaps, Divine Love. And then there is tough Love. And I am sure many other way to experience Love. But which Love is the real deal? What is the essence of Love? Love has so many faces. Love has so many arenas of expression. If you study the teachings of the Enlightened Ones … you might conclude that Love is actually the fabric of all-that-is. The fabric of the universe itself. That Love itself is Source Consciousness, Prime Creator, or God with a…

Unraveling Our Past To re-unite with our Soul It does actually take conscious effort. Left unchecked, the ego will chase shadows until the end of time. It was, at least for a substantial part, our egos that loaded up our subconscious in the first place. You are infinite potential, in human form. But, so what? If you don’t do anything to e-x-p-a-n-d your sense of self, then, perhaps, you are just your ego looking for fulfillment in the reflection of the quantum mirror. In other words, looking for a deeper understanding of yourself, by chasing people, circumstances and a sense of validation from those external factors of your everyday life. The “world” you see outside of you, is a reflection of what is inside of you. Everything that pisses you off, is a reflection of unresolved parts of yourself on the inside of you that you have not resolved. Everything.…

I can’t get no satisfaction When our ego goes looking for satisfaction When we go looking for satisfaction, we can struggle to keep the feeling sustained. Oftentimes the ego puts the feeling of satisfaction on things or events. Getting married. Or a promotion at work. Or perhaps a new car. Oftentimes, we will postpone the feeling when we are trying to accomplish something. Perhaps graduating from college or winning an Emmy. I am not putting down the pursuit of accomplishments. But rather, on hanging our sense of self on anything outside of us. Everything in our life has a season. Every thing, be it a person, place or thing, is a season of experiences. In truth, the only thing that does not have a season is ourselves. Our own point of presence. Our own consciousness itself. You are an eternal well of consciousness. Your ego does not create the consciousness…

The Power of Love What does Love have to offer us? What does Love have for us? How good can you stand it? How much Love can you embody? Let’s look “down” the karmic scale. This is an imagined example … So, a child that has lived in the most horrid conditions its whole life comes into your life. From a life where everything was volatile. Food, clothing, shelter … the basics of life were an everyday struggle. Certainly this planet has countless arenas of such suffering. And Poof! The child is elevated to your lifestyle. Everything changes when the child enters your lifestyle. You have food. You have shelter. You have everything you need to sustain your life. You offer the child fresh, clean water. Food abounds. The richness of your life is such an unimaginable experience to a child that had never known such a way to live…

For the Joy of Loving How do you make Love? What are the ingredients? Where do you look to find Love? Love is the root of consciousness itself. More specifically, Unconditional Love. So imagine this… The automotive engineer has been working on a new design. For a new suspension system for a car. She has been dreaming of how well she can make a car hug the road in a sharp turn. How solid could it feel? How tight could it turn and still feel solid? A passionate pursuit of perfection. So imagine this… The race car driver has been looking for ways to do it better. Looking for a way to race at an even higher performance level. Where can the new possibilities be found? What is possible? The car itself is a vehicle. A vehicle of Love. 😉 It is a physical vessel of Love to be carried…

The Touch of Love When two Souls hold each other in Love The stories of our human past can have such stories of heartache and emotional anguish. Who hasn’t cried their eyes out because of painful feelings? Yet, there is another part of living. And that is a place of Love. Unconditional Love. Where two Souls have loved each other within the storm. This Love isn’t always obvious. Until, perhaps, it is gone. Who in your life has touched you at a very deep level? This can be anyone who has spent time with you. Perhaps within a family dynamic. Perhaps in the workplace. Perhaps just as friends. Those people who “get you.” Who understand you. Who see you, perhaps at a deeper level than others in your life. When two Souls choose to share a human path together. When two Souls choose to be there for each other, during…

Dream. Big. Co-create with the creator. How do you go from a peasant to a king? From a seeker to the Divine itself? From a mere mortal to the immortal consciousness of the Divine? I am not suggesting anything about you, the reader. This is a metaphorical conversation. Who are we? Really. A simple question. If we consider who it is that is reading this sentence … who is the answer. Sure, your ego is taking the symbols, the characters and words, and assigning meaning to them. Creating your own understanding of what they mean. But your ego is so … single lifetime consciousness. Your Soul is here too. And your Soul has been through so many different lifetimes. Your Soul has been through so many different archetypes too. Perhaps your Soul has played out the peasant and royalty, the sinner and the saint, the cop and the criminal, the…

Heaven and Hell are both possible today Did you enjoy yesterday? Are there moments from yesterday that you can remember that make you smile? What about today? This day. Right now. As Souls incarnate, we always have free-agency to create as we choose. Often our religions have us preparing for Heaven AFTER judgment day. After that mythical day, THEN we are assigned to either Heaven or Hell. Well, hell exists today. There are plenty of people who will experience a form of hell today. Suffering is still present on this planet. If, indeed, free-agency is a fundamental part of BEing consciousness expressing, then we eternally have the option of heaven or hell in each moment. If you want to “go” to heaven, then schedule the trip for today. This day. The ever-present NOW is the only time ever that you will experience anything. You want to “go” to heaven? Learn…
