You know,
All of us,
Every minute of our lives,
Every moment of our lives,
We're meditating.
And whatever we're meditating on,
We're creating in our lives,
Because consciousness follows what we are focusing on.
So this is a reason,
You know,
For why the Christians talk about,
You know,
The importance of praising God.
Or in the East,
They talk about the importance of a mantra,
Like a repeating holy name over and over,
Because it steers your psyche then to all that is,
You know,
Beyond your ego,
To your true nature,
Beyond the ego,
To the loving reality that this world is made out of.
And you know,
If we're letting our thoughts swim around in,
Like feeling sorry for ourselves or feeling,
You know,
Angry and,
You know,
Focusing on negative thoughts about other people,
That's what we're creating.
We're creating kind of a little dark dungeon for our own consciousness that is so huge.
It's so huge in the spiritual journey,
You know,
Gradually,
If you just stay on it,
You'll slowly wake up to that we're immortal beings,
And we have these miraculous consciousnesses.
And we can allow this to be woven into our lives.
You know,
Gradually,
It has to be done gradually,
Because otherwise it could be destabilizing.
But you know,
At this time,
There's a great deal of grace supporting us into this bigger understanding because,
I mean,
As the invasion of the Ukraine showed,
I mean,
We're gonna either go into more darkness or more light,
Or,
You know,
Probably a mix of both.
But anyway,
In your own individual life,
You can,
You know,
Focus on your eternal nature and what's behind this illusion and allow that to shine forth more in your life.
You know,
We've gotten sort of mixed up with,
You know,
These spiritual practices and being a good girl or good boy.
So,
You know,
If we do spiritual practices with really the desire to bring in our eternal nature and spread love here,
That's better than doing it with the idea of,
Oh,
I'm being a good girl or good boy.
I mean,
We could circulate for 20 years around,
You know,
Doing lots of practices.
But if we're doing it with,
Oh,
I'm being a good girl,
The gift that comes from it will be limited.
Whereas if you've just got this wild,
You know,
Wow,
I'd like to make it better here.
And focus on love,
Then,
You know,
You'll tap into it.
Okay,
Bless your hearts.
