Forget About Timing

Waste Of Time

There are so many kinds of things in the process
Of becoming. One may ask if it’s possible
For the timing to be off on something so right
And of course it does. People can be off despite
Their intention to orchestrate some meaningful
Course of action. To this we must all acquiesce.

Yet to call it ‘wrong’ timing is introducing
Resistance into the equation. Try to see
That your struggle to make things turn out the right way
Only leads to failure and to constant dismay.
It’s a colossal waste of time and energy.
Nothing but pain and sorrow does it your heart bring.

You’ve put things into your vortex of creation
For eternity. Every time you want something
To be better into the vortex it’s added
And it’s easy for you to just get out ahead
Of all that you’ve put in there. Only you can bring
What’s there to you. It’s all about your vibration.

The cooperative components are all there
So step back from it. Instead of trying to move
All the pieces give yourself a well deserved break
And Forget About Timing for your spirit’s sake.
Everything about your life will greatly improve.
As you release resistance you’ll have time to spare.

Freedom, Growth, And Joy

Street Happy

Into this life experience each of us comes
With a triad of intentions. They are freedom,
Growth, and joy, and they are intended equally.
To reach for satisfaction you’re perfectly free
And in doing so all kinds of blessings will come
Showering down upon you in infinite sums.

Expansion or growth happens as you’re reaching for
Satisfaction. The contrast of life causes you
To ask for something better. That is expansion.
You can grow while you’re having a whole lot of fun
In fact joy is required to get the other two
Activated. Your energy tends to be more.

Satisfied with the potential of things getting
Better, you energize your point of attraction.
That’s enough for you. Just feeling good is okay
Because you know that good things are coming your way.
It all happens because of your satisfaction.
You are free to feel your best in any setting.

Why do you think you want whatever it may be?
It’s because you think you will feel better but you
Can feel better in the present. You’ve already
What you want though it exists vibrationally.
Tapping into you true self is all you need do.
You intended to live your life here happily.

The Art Of Right Thinking

Bright Brain

When the vibration of a thought gains momentum
It gets bigger and its power is amplified.
Think about a thought that you already believe
Then a magnetic vibration you will achieve.
There’s nothing in the universe that you’re denied.
It is where most creations of genius come from.

Be a thinker. It’s what you do best after all
But use your thought to feel your way into a state
Of alignment with who you know yourself to be.
Thoughts that feel good are the ones that will set you free
Of the struggle that life has caused you to create.
There are many good feelings that you can recall.

Decide whether your tuning to the solution
Or the problem. If you care about how you feel
And if you want the good momentum to increase
Give yourself a break. The resistance you release
Puts you in a position that is most ideal.
The thought process is part of the evolution.

All that effort that you’ve been offering from a
Place of trying to make something right is the cause
Of increasing resistance. Try to relax more.
As you do then the things that you love and adore
Will flood into your life. When you apply the laws
Of the universe then only good comes your way.

Get Ready To Receive

Present In The Present

Getting into the receptive mode is easy.
You are in it several times throughout your day.
When you change lanes in traffic you get an impulse
To do so. Intuition you cannot divulse
From your system of sensing. It is your main way
Of receiving. You are this way naturally.

You can use meditation to quiet the mind.
This enhances your readiness. When you’re detached
From your thoughts you enter a state of total peace.
This is helpful whenever you want to release
Incongruent thought patterns. This then will have hatched
A new understanding with which to be aligned.

You can’t think about bills when you’re focused upon
The dripping of a faucet or a ticking clock.
Let your mind settle into inactivity.
Once you connect in this way you usually
Will become more receptive. By taking more stock
In your spirit it’s your happiness you act on.

You’ve been in the receiving mode much more than you
Realize. Do it on purpose then come to know
The relationship between your thoughts and the things
That occur in your life. Your receptiveness brings
Everything unto you so allow it to flow.
There is not much else that you are required to do.

Do Only What Feels Best To You

Moment Of Ecstasy

The path of least resistance is the one that feels
The best to you. You receive the impulse to move
In a certain direction. You’re being called to
The unstoppable passion that grows within you.
Knowing well that your worthiness you need not prove,
You’re receptive to what the universe reveals.

There’s not a right or wrong way to do anything.
There’s an easier way and a more difficult
Way of doing something, so the easier way
Favors logic. No one in their right mind would stay
On the hard road knowing what would be the result.
You’re aware of the good your vibration can bring.

We all have our unique ways of getting to where
We want to be so whatever feels best to us
Is the way that’s most righteous. Authenticity
Regarding how it feels to you is the only
Thing to consider. Don’t put yourself through the fuss
Of relating to others who clearly don’t care.

Just feel your way into your alignment – into
Your bliss – into those moments where so many things
Come together to where you feel totally blessed
Because You Are. You know what to you feels the best.
And you have access to the eternal wellsprings
Of abundance. Be happy in all that you do.

Remember The Essence Of Who You Are

Lost In The Crowd

You Are Spirit. This must be the number one thing
To remember. Things like your personality,
Your body, and your intellect are a façade
Utilized by the ego. Now this may sound odd
To those ears that crave logic so vehemently
But the ego has no way of understanding.

You come to know who you are through meditation
Which you are always doing no matter if you
Are driving on the freeway or walking your dog.
You try to mitigate your inner dialogue.
Things like your breathing you can pay attention to.
You’re the focus of deliberate creation.

Mother Earth is a living organism and
You’re a part of it all. You are the sensory
Organs of the earth. You are the earth’s consciousness.
We’ll do harm to ourselves and the planet unless
We can change into what on earth we ought to be.
This concern is something most people understand.

Consciousness can be raised by forgetting who you
Are to your ego self and to others and then
Contemplating on spiritual mystery.
The old myths were inspired to help us better see
Our connection to spirit. We’re at our best when
We align with our spirit in all that we do.

A Brain Meditation

Mind Flow

There are two points of focus that always exist.
There’s the nonphysical part of you who remained
Nonphysically focused, and then there’s the part
With a flesh and blood body and a beating heart.
An ideal blending of the two can be attained
Although the human brain sometimes wants to resist.

During meditation when you quiet your mind
Your vibration rises and the gap between you
And your higher self narrows. When you meditate
Your brain naturally reaches the alpha state.
You come out of it with a more positive view
Of yourself and the condition of humankind.

You may be standing in a place where you’re feeling
Embarrassed, unworthy, or incapable, but
Your own higher self will never go there with you.
That’s why you feel the negative way that you do.
You have a guidance system. It’s known as your gut.
What it has to say is totally revealing.

Your thoughts may introduce into the equation
Resistance so you’re not at the top of your game.
That’s okay. You can get there now that you know how.
Take the time necessary for you to allow
You and your higher self to be right on the same
Frequency, and it is all about vibration.

Forget About Struggle

Monumental Task

How can I get to that place of satisfaction?
What’s the most effective way I can get from hope
To believing and knowing? What can I do now
Right this moment to help me to better allow
Understanding and energy to help me cope
With the struggle? Does this happen with everyone?

Your are where you are. If something has happened and
You’re reacting to it, you’re vibrationally
Where you are with it and anything you can do
To improve the way you feel will benefit you.
Your climbing the emotional scale just may be
The appropriate tool of which you have command.

You can work your way up the emotional scale
Or you can do something that will quiet your mind
And there are many ways such as meditation.
Anything that will help you in the creation
Of a path that leads you to a place more aligned
With your spirit ensures that your truth will prevail.

Often times you need to count to ten and look for
Positive aspects in this person when there’s not
A one evident. You don’t want to make it worse.
Sometimes you have to walk away. The universe
Remembers everything that you may have forgot
And its constant reminders you cannot ignore.

Why Mindfulness Is A Superpower

Natural Peace

When someone mistreats you, for example, lets say
Someone cuts you off in traffic, how do you take
The infraction? What would be your first reaction?
Are you caught in the grip of dissatisfaction?
Does the situation your connection forsake?
Does the incident mess with you throughout your day?

You respond due to habit. Immediately
You react to what’s happening. What happens next
Is a starburst of self-righteous thoughts and you feel
That it’s all about you and that you have to deal
With it all rather harshly. You may be perplexed
By how challenging your alignment seems to be.

There’s no buffer between the stimulus and your
Reaction, but with mindfulness you’d treat the same
Situation much differently. You would be
Able to just observe it. Emotionally
You are saved from dilemma and you can reclaim
Your connection with all that you’ve been living for.

Here’s one simple, serviceable definition
Of mindfulness. It’s the ability to know
What is happening in your head at any time
Without responding to it. A pleasure sublime
It is to respond wisely. You’re able to show
Yourself that mindfulness is the best solution.

The Best Alignment Tool

Healthy Routine

Life is quite an adventure. There’s so much to do
And to be in the real world of getting things done
And of basking in all of your grand achievements.
You may have trouble managing all the events
Of your busy life, but you are the only one
Who can do it although it may bring stress to you.

The mind can be a wonderful tool for getting
To the bottom of most things. It analyzes
And sorts out the environment in such a way
That it can yield accomplishment, but you must pay
Close attention to your thoughts. All that arises
From bad thinking is something you’d be regretting.

Meditation is the best tool to get into
Alignment. There’s no question. It’s a surefire way
Of releasing resistance. If you are willing
To spend part of an hour you’ll find it fulfilling.
It is best that it’s done at the start of the day
Before yesterday’s upsets can get hold of you.

When you release thought you release resistance, and
When there’s no resistance your vibration rises.
You have broader perspective. Your daily routine
Is enhanced because you’ve developed such a keen
Awareness. It is the best of exercises
To clear the cluttered psyche so it can expand.

Just Enjoy The Process

Toward Solution

What can I do to step back from the sponsoring
Negative thoughts and get a more clear message from
My inner being or higher self? How can I
Be assured that there is some technique I can try
To relieve my anxiety? From where I come
Is a place of humility and wondering.

The question and the answer are two different
Points of view and vibration. I can’t receive when
The question becomes dominant I must chill out
And know that things are working out beyond all doubt.
The pulsating question I must let go of, then
I’m able to receive absent my self-torment.

The answer is to let some time pass and to be
Receptive to the answer. My inner being
Is revealing it to me constantly. I must
Be free of negativity, and I must trust
That my inner being is always far seeing.
I would like to say that it’s the best part of me.

The point of meditation is to clear the mind
Of its negative clutter and all resistance.
Let it do that. There’s no other reason to be
In alignment than to be absolutely free
Of resistance no matter what the circumstance.
Just Enjoy The Process as it is well defined.

Breathing

Momentary Contentment

Do I know that I’m breathing? Sometimes I forget
That I’m doing so, then my body makes me yawn.
It’s a channeling. My inner being lets me
Know that I should slow down. Breathing happens to be
My wholistic addiction. I depend upon
All the breathing that’s not even happening yet.

The whole point of my breathing is to get into
Alignment with who I am. No special technique
Do I follow. I simply breathe in then breathe out.
Focus on respiration remains all about
Raising one’s vibration. Nothing else do I seek
Than a much better feeling and clear point of view.

The cork under water is being held there by
Some resistance. The cork’s natural tendency
Is to rise to the surface. If I can let go
Of what’s holding me under, I will get to know
Utter peace and contentment. I want to be free
Of resistance. My breathing no one can deny.

I breath all the time. There’s not a single moment
That I’m not breathing, and I’ve the ability
To focus on my breathing. My breath is my friend.
If I treat it that way it helps me to ascend
To the pinnacle of spirituality.
It requires not anyone else’s involvement.

A Meditation Question

Spiritual Alignment

I find that when I meditate there are times when
My thoughts come and go. They are all over the place.
I see that as no problem. It must be okay
Because I can start over if ever I stray
From my focus on nothing to enter a space
Of alignment. I can get back on track again.

When I’m there in that sacred space everything makes
So much sense. I’ve a sense of infinite knowing.
When I come out of meditation I forget
Everything that had happened. I feel some regret
That the access to the knowledge that was flowing
Is no longer. Somehow am I making mistakes?

Meditation is a process which allows your
Vibration to rise. When it does, you have access
To infinite intelligence. When you are there
Just take notice of how you feel and be aware
Of it all happening. Recognize your progress
In the process and in time it will reveal more.

Meditation is the gateway to alignment,
And alignment is when you’re open to receive
Information. You can get to a point where you
Can record your experience. You don’t have to
Get all bothered about it. What you can achieve
Through alignment will bring you enormous content.

Everything That You Want Is Downstream

Constant Connection

Imagine taking your canoe down to the edge
Of a fast-moving river. You get in and then
You begin paddling deliberately upstream.
Why on earth would you do that, though? It doesn’t seem
Like a healthy idea. Again and again,
People do it as if they’ve made a solemn pledge.

People do it because everybody does it.
We don’t want be lazy, and we have been trained
To believe that hard work and struggle are to be
Seen as virtuous qualities. Society
Is upstream oriented as if it’s ingrained
In our psyche. It can be of no benefit.

There’s nothing that you want that’s upstream anyway.
The rewards for a difficult life can’t be worth
Feeling absolute pleasure in every moment.
People learn how to get by with their discontent.
When it gets to be too much, then they’re giving birth
To a change in direction and a brand new day.

Everything that you want is downstream. Everything
That makes up the stream is what you’ve been putting there
Through your wanting a better life. Inspiration
Comes to you, and it helps you in getting things done.
Just let go of the oars and become more aware
Of your worthiness and your passion for living.

Remove Force From Your Life

Hot Race

To resist all evil means to give up the fight.
Your problems are not solvable by using force.
When you become a fighter against anything
Onto the forces that created it you cling.
It takes conscious awareness to get to the source
Of your struggle. You know that things are not all right.

In this material world, things move at a pace
That causes much anxiety, illness, and pain.
It’s slow-moving energy ironically.
It’s the kind that always asks, “What’s in it for me?”
Scurrying to meet deadlines can drive you insane.

Life does not have to be a chaotic rat race.

Hold no one or no thing in judgment. You cannot
Bring spiritual harmony to an issue
As long as you accept the idea that one
Side is right. You will never reach a solution.
Judging others means only that something in you
Needs expressing, and it doesn’t mean a whole lot.

When you slow yourself down, you will actually
Always speed up your spiritual vibration.
Peaceful, tranquil thoughts clear the chatter in the mind.
While you’re stopped at a traffic light, be more inclined
To connect with your inner peace. Meditation
Is the wonderful practice of letting things be.

Go Straight For The Feeling

Moment Of Appreciation

This whole manifestation thing gets me thinking
That if I’m on the verge of a dream coming true,
Then my strength of emotion allows it to be.
I am never ‘on the verge’ of being happy.
I am there, or I’m not. What I have coming due
Is by manifold components interlinking.

Everything that I want is about the feeling
I will have upon getting it. Why not go straight
To the wonderful feeling? I can easily
Notwithstanding the fact that results I don’t see
At the moment. I can be happy as I wait
For a manifestation that’s most appealing.

I believe that the universe caters to me
In the best way. My positive expectation
I practice, so it trains me to be more aware
Of the good in each circumstance. Mostly I care
About how I feel for myself and everyone.
I anticipate living life passionately.

My world is such that anything I want will come.
The only thing that I do is be receptive
And open to my consciously moving along
The emotional spectrum. How can I go wrong?
I have found for myself the perfect way to live.
I’m the one who needs to know where I’m coming from.

The Raw Need Unfulfilled

Angst

I can’t leave it alone, yet I know I need to.
I can’t just go on wanting and feeling that I
Could crawl out of my skin. Is there no solution
To my issue of severe self-persecution?
I keep asking the question and wondering why
The answer isn’t coming. So, what must I do?

You can leave it alone by your feeling worthy
Of its manifestation. Though it’s difficult
When the need has a rawness so overwhelming,
Still you must keep your focus on what’s becoming
Without feeling its absence, so the end result
Is exactly the way that you would have it be.

How can you stop your thinking so much about it?
Change the subject by going very general
In your thinking about it until you’ve achieved
An effective distraction. You will have received
Alternate inspiration that everything shall
Come together for your ultimate benefit.

Getting busy on other things gets you to where
There is not much resistance in your vibration.
Talk yourself into believing that it’s coming.
Meditation will clean out the psychic plumbing
So that some clarity of the mind is begun.
Always about how you are feeling you must care.

The Emotional Choice

Drama

You could think about many different subjects,
But let it be emotional. Thinking too much
Complicates your achieving what you most desire.
The more significant thing that you will acquire
Is complete understanding that you’ve become such
An astute manifester in many aspects.

The Emotional Choice is an energy one.
You can be as miserable or as happy
As you choose in the moment. Your choices are two:
To feel better or worse. So, the thing you can do,
If momentum has gathered, to get yourself free
Is to forget about it and go have some fun.

The imperfect manifestation is the one
Which can lead to perfection or more improvement.
The contrast that life offers is the beginning
Of insight and direction toward a winning
Solution. You do not have to get all hellbent
On perfection. Your fine work would then be undone.

The pipeline of creation is fueled by what you
Are about here and now. It’s about attraction –
Not assertion, compulsion, or struggling your way
Toward something. There’s no price that you have to pay
But your joy and the feeling of satisfaction.
Speak your thoughts of alignment and watch them come true.

Timing Is None Of Your Business

Temporal Uncertainty

Things are always in the process of becoming.
Is it possible, then, for the timing to be
Just a bit off on something you know to be right?
Yes, of course, but your calling it ‘wrong timing’ might
Introduce resistance that’s unnecessary.
Thoughts of time very quickly become mind numbing.

Timing Is None Of Your Business, and here is why.
Throughout life you’ve put many things in your Vortex
Of Creation
. Each one of them matters to you,

And each one of them has the ability to
Interact with each other. You are the apex
Of a pyramid that is exceedingly high.

Your wants become cooperative components
With each other as if they have minds of their own.
Everything in your Vortex is then perfectly
Lined up for you, so you have no reason to be
Up in arms about timing. You are not alone
In your quest for creating a life of suspense.

You may try to get in there and move things around,
But your effort is futile. You need to step back
And observe what is happening. Satisfaction
Is your reason for living, and you are the one
To evolve and get over your feelings of lack.
In contentment there is much power to be found.

Appreciate

From The Heart

Your vortex is a compilation of what you
Believe possible, but your life often is not.
Though the gap between the two can get rather wide,
You can shorten it. You are the one to decide
What is possible for you. It matters a lot
That whatever you dream, it will somehow come true.

You must know that your conscious beliefs do reflect
Your environment through inner conversations.
So your physical human life consists of all
That you have aligned with. You respond to the call
Of your true self by your most profound creations.
How you feel about your life is what you expect.

In the absence of what you want, you’ve asked for it
With great clarity, and the Law of Attraction
Is right on it. You now have to quiet your mind
By some process – indeed any one you can find.
There’s also value in visualization.
Many tools are established for your benefit.

The state of appreciation is the best one
To be in because there can be no resistance.
Thoughts are flowing, but they are purely positive.
It is so much more fun and exciting to live
In a way that you’re constantly offered the chance
To express your most heartfelt appreciation.

The Power Of Appreciation

Thanks From The Heart

The ideal life for me is a compilation
Of what I believe possible as I partake
Of the blessings it offers. Often I am there
In that place of alignment where I am aware
Of the infinite splendor in a mere daybreak.
There is much power in my every creation.

My feelings are creations. Manifestations
Of those that are most positive happen with me
On a regular basis. I go for the best
I can have in each moment. As they are expressed,
The attraction of wellbeing comes easily.
I need not know a thing about how the world runs.

“Reach for a better feeling thought.” This I believe
To be guidance worth taking. Whenever I feel
Myself going southward, I can remember this.
From contentment, I can go to a state of bliss.
Having pinched myself, I know that life is for real.
By my choice I can be in the mode to receive.

It is fun to imagine my dreams coming true.
Meditation is helpful in clearing my mind
Of the negative clutter. Appreciation
Is more powerful, and it’s a whole lot more fun.
In acknowledging wonderful things, I will find
Life to be pleasurable and brand spanking new.

Manifest Anything

All Is Possible With Intent Of Focus

It is all a performance. Upon this world stage,
You were sent to do magic. You are a master
Of creation. No one can tell you otherwise.
It takes nothing much for you to actualize
Anything, and you’ve learned how to do it faster
Than ever through the energy that you engage.

“How do you do it?” one may ask innocently,
Not knowing of vibration. It’s simply an act.
You pretend that the thing that you want is here now.
You imagine what it feels like, then you allow
Divine forces to bring unto you the exact
Circumstances to manifest the thing to be.

You adjust your performance depending upon
What you’re wanting. If it’s more money in the bank,
You pretend that you have way much more than you need
As you feel with intensity. Then with Godspeed,
On your way you will be. Who would you have to thank
For ensuring that your magic is never gone?

Fall asleep knowing that your dream has taken place
And that the divine audience has seen your play.
Let go, and let the provident force bring to you
That which by your resistance is long overdue.
There is nothing wrong in having things go your way.
Get to know the power of supreme divine grace.

Get Your Answers Directly From YOU!

Your Inner Oracle

Questions I have about life and why I exist
Overcome me. I would like to communicate
With my inner being a bit more directly,
But nothing that I can understand comes to me.
Can I get answers without my having to wait?
There is no way that my questions can be dismissed.

Most subtly it must happen in the beginning.
I must be in alignment with it in order
To receive it. I am it, as far as I know,
But therein lies resistance. I have to let go
Of the question, which is not what I would prefer,
Yet it’s probably the answer to everything.

The vibration of the question is different
From that of the answer. I cannot concentrate
On the question forever. The answer will come
When I am ready for it. All emanates from
Being in a receptive and positive state.
I anticipate a spiritual event.

I’ll let it rest within me for a day or two.
Then I’ll unclutter my mind through meditation.
Having left the question much a thing of the past,
Inspiration is offered to me from the vast
Fund of infinite knowledge. How well I have done
In getting my answers from the source that is true!

You Are Offered A Signal

The Voice Of Inner Guidance

Strong and wise is my guidance system. This I know
Without question, but sometimes I feel that I may
Not be listening or translating properly
What it tells me. My fear and intent don’t agree.
The appearance is that I don’t know how to pray.
I know that this mindset is why progress is slow.

More statements of what I want is indicated,
And less of what I don’t want. I want to be sure
That I can hear the messages coming to me
From the provident, infinite forces that be.
It’s important that my own vibration be pure.
Only then will I get what is long awaited.

I can let the hearing be a separate thing
From the wanting and tuning. From my perspective
Of not having, I will not see things manifest.
How I feel in the having of it, if expressed
To the universe, is extremely effective
In the spiritual process of attracting.

The more walks that I take in places that feel good,
The more I will hear. Moments of preparation
Are those such as laughing, dancing, and playing more.
I can never go wrong doing things I adore.
Only when I am in a state of elation
Can I ditch the odd habit of knocking on wood.

Only When You’re On Fire

Extreme Motivation

Make no effort unless you are in your Vortex
Of Creation
– that place where you’re feeling your best.

You enjoy creating something magnificent
In your life. When you’re happy, nothing can prevent
You from getting where you want. You can manifest
What you want through a process that isn’t complex.

“I have this dream that I want to pursue, but I
Have to work fifty hours a week and pay the bills.”
You know not to let excuses like this keep you

From exploring horizons exciting and new.
You partake of the freedom to go for the thrills
Your life offers you only when you’re flying high.

You’ve learned ‘segment intending,’ which is a technique
Where you set aside time to focus on one thing
Or another exclusively so you’ll achieve
The specific state that allows you to receive
The object of your focus. This is creating
With intent. It becomes such a pleasure to seek.

You do not have good timing when you are outside
Your Vortex. You may struggle and not be fulfilled
In your efforts, but when you are inside of it,
Everything is made easy as you benefit.
Upon your good foundation you’re able to build
A successful life with your Vortex as your guide.

Embodying Stillness

Meditation By The Sea

If you go to visit a Zen monastery,
Where they call meditation ‘sitting,’ one may ask
“How long you have been sitting? I’ve been sitting for
A few decades or so.” “Doesn’t you butt get sore?”,

May be one’s response who is not up to the task
Of doing the work that is most necessary.

Sitting in meditation, one is familiar
With a method, but don’t confuse it with the state
You are in while you’re doing it. Meditation
Is a state of pure presence. You can be at one
With the universe, and you do not have to wait
To become more aware of who you really are.

The method is designed to facilitate the
State of consciousness, but at some point every one
Must be dropped so that you can be right in that place
Of immaculate presence. Its welcome embrace
Is available to you through meditation.
Method is simply the way of coming to be.

One evolves to the point where no method at all
Becomes necessary to be in alignment.
If you get too attached to your method, then you
Will defeat your intention. What you may go through
To get there may be subject to some refinement.
It cannot be for you an impossible call.

What Is It To See?

Self-Revelation

Some use the symbolism of relationship
Wherein God is expressing through a brilliant light.
Underneath all the forms we perceive, the divine
Is kept from direct vision unless we align
With its presence. The notion implies inner sight.
Going into the bright light is a sacred trip.

You are looking right at it, and in doing so,
You are it. The experience is exactly
The same as pure divinity. We’re pretending
Not to know this for the fear of our offending
The Almighty. We want to see desperately
Evidence of the presence that seems hard to know.

The vision of the paper cup is just the same
As the brilliant light of the cosmos. It’s unseen
Because all the points of divine light are tiny.
We’re amazed by the many things there are to see.
We can know that within God there’s no in-between.
A rose is still a rose by any other name.

The source of all light is in the eyes. If there were
No eyes in the world, then there would be no sunlight.
We evoke light from being. Our consciousness state
In this moment is one we can appreciate.
It is something like heaven to be given sight.
The spirit that you are is obliged to concur.

Being In Nature

Getting Close To The Earth

“Seek out a quiet place in the forest,” said he
Who was called the Buddha thousands of years ago.
He practiced meditation, and that’s what he taught.
He was available to anyone who sought
Spiritual enlightenment. He was also
Big on nature. He loved it most passionately.

In nature, there is ‘stillness’ that’s different from
That which is artificial and caused by the lack
Of the clamor incessant. This kind one can hear.
When you listen to nature with an acute ear,
The stillness is apparent. You peek through a crack
In eternity. Magnificent insights come.

Nature teaches connection. It has much to do
With the way we develop spiritually.
Nature relaxes as well as energizes.
When alone or with others it crystalizes
Consciousness into oneness. It’s easy to be
Just oneself without pretense. God bless the guru!

Refrain as much as possible from thinking while
You’re in nature. Just be the awareness behind
Your acute sense perceptions. Be fully at one
With all that you experience. You have begun
To connect to the heart and detach from the mind.
Nothing in the woods can put a cramp in your style.

Why I’m So Tired

Psychic Energy Depletion

What I’m doing fulfills me. I could not feel more
In alignment with my dreams. I feel satisfied
In what I have accomplished throughout my career,
And regarding my future, I’m perfectly clear
That its brightness will bless me. Luck is on my side.
Plentiful are the avenues I may explore.

But sometimes I’m exhausted while I’m having fun.
It’s as if I’m an infant at bedtime. I can’t
Keep my eyes open longer despite what I do.
It’s a feeling that I’m forced to surrender to.
My remaining awake is much more important
Than the rest that I need so that I can function.

The reason that I feel emotion is because
I’m two vibrational vantage points, meaning that
My conscious self has one, and my inner being
Has another. They are not always agreeing,
And the gap that this causes is worth looking at.
I am always subject to spiritual laws.

There are two possible reasons I’m depleted.
As the gap gets wider, I have less energy.
As the gap narrows, I am refreshed and complete.
When expansion is fast, often times I don’t meet
Where it is in the moment. I most want to be
Receptive to the prospect of good times ahead.

Play This Game

The Universe Invites You

Look for good feeling things. What a wonderful game!
It’s so easy to do that. It’s simply child’s play.
This wholesome affirmation is translated well
To adults who’ve forgotten the best way to tell
If they are in alignment. What you do this day
Reflects how much good feeling you’re willing to claim.

Remember the attitude you had as a child.
You appreciated everything you could see,
And you trusted that most people are truly good.
You had little resistance in early childhood.
You believed fun and happiness should always be
Important, and your dreams were most freely compiled.

Let that be then the tone of each and every day.
Go to sleep in a state of appreciation.
Think of things that uplift you, and be thankful for
All the aspects of your life that you most adore.
In the morning you will feel as bright as the sun.
From the start you will notice things going your way.

The feeling of detachment means that you’re aligned
With your true self. This is a supreme unfolding.
Your set point of vibration will change as will your
Point of attraction. Your happiness is the cure
For your ills. Be aware of the clay you’re molding.
You’ll become much wiser and enjoy peace of mind.

Change Your Life

Live A New Story

No matter where I’m going or what I’m doing
By myself or with others, it’s my intention
To look for all the good things that brighten my day.
In a high flying state is where I want to stay.
I remember always that I’m an extension
Of Source Energy. My life is worth pursuing.

As I put myself to bed at night I lie there,
While in an attitude of appreciation,
Thinking about this day, flowers, puppies, and lakes…
Anything that is pleasing. Whatever it takes
To put me in a state of utter elation
Is worth contemplating, and it counts as a prayer.

While I am drifting off to sleep, I reemerge
Into pure positive energy. When I wake
I will still be in that place. Appreciating
Before sleeping is my own way of creating
The same vibration for a most awesome daybreak.
All the negative thought patterns are worth the purge.

When I wake up I reach for the dream that I had
For spiritual value, but more important
Is my appreciating all over again.
I can see the whole universe through God’s eyes when
In the morning I’m in that state of alignment.
This life changing advice for me is ironclad.

How To Leave It Alone

Resisting Temptation

Where is it? Why does it not come quickly to me?
I’ve been wanting my butt off with no damned result
To my efforts and wishing and hoping things will
Finally work to my good. How do I fulfill
My magnificent dream outside of the occult?
It is by my relaxing and feeling worthy.

To keep asking the questions is no solution
To my feeling uncomfortable in the wait.
I’m standing in the place of the utter absence
Of the things that I want. It makes much better sense
To dispense with my asking and then concentrate
On some other things that will raise my vibration.

Meditation is helpful. It quiets the mind
Of resistance and chatter. Any distraction
That can occupy the mind and is fulfilling
And making lists of all the things that are working
In my life is of great benefit lest I run
The risk of becoming negatively inclined.

Going general is another handy tool.
I can talk myself into a positive state
By letting myself know that things always work out.
It is only my focus on worry and doubt
That keeps me from the things that I appreciate.
It’s by my choice that I keep on acting the fool.

Facing Your Fears

Handling Life Anxiety

Deep down everyone is afraid. When you don’t face
What you fear, much of life you are missing out on.
That you could have, or should have, or would have is the
Saddest way to sum up your life. Don’t let it be
The thing that holds you back until your life is gone.
 Take each step at a time as you steady your pace.

Life can be overwhelming especially when
You are not in a good place to handle it well.
Each little success will increase your confidence.
Break humongous things down so that they make more sense.
It is not good for you to remain in your shell.
This applies equally to both women and men.

Get professional advice. To yourself be kind.
Get whatever support you need. Accentuate
What is going well. You can rewrite your story
To exactly the way that you want things to be
But you must face your fear in order to create
Any further. You must be with yourself aligned.

When your brain is not well oxygenated things
Will feel much worse than they really are. Helplessness
And paralysis keep you in the negative
Reinforcing mentality. Decide to live
To your fullest. You intended for nothing less
Than to live upon this earth as do queens and kings.

Permission Slip

Be Yourself; Do Your Best

There are so many processes, tools, and techniques
Like religion, exercise, and meditation…
This is certainly not a bad thing. It in fact
Gives us many ways to keep the spirit intact.
So there is no reason for not choosing just one.
We each listen to the voice that most loudly speaks.

Each one gives us permission to be who we are
At our purest. Belief systems play a big part
In the choice of tradition, and the artifacts
That are used may be the very thing that attracts
One’s attention. One’s method is taken to heart.
That place of inner knowing is never too far.

We can change belief systems as easily as
We can change our appearance. The tool that we use
Allows for that to happen. When we are in need
It is by our belief system that we are freed.
What’s even more awesome is that we get to choose
How much weight on our living that each moment has.

Whatever we’re attracted to, we are because
It works well at the moment, but ultimately,
You come to know that you’re the one making changes
To your outlook as the universe arranges
What is needed. You are the tool absolutely
In complete compliance with universal laws.

The Meditative State

The Peace Of Total Alignment

Should I meditate more often than I do now?
My business I have time for but also for me.
If I’m not happy all the time I must conclude
That I must meditate more to heighten my mood.
I can be much more consistent if I need be
In knowing what I’m doing – also knowing how.

I’m not trying to receive a message before
I am ready. I just want to quiet the mind
Of its clutter filled chatter and engineering.
My intent is my letting go and allowing
My vibration to rise until I am aligned
With my innermost being who can but adore.

Meditation is the way that I can let my
Innermost being teach me about alignment.
It is always there. When I am not, it’s okay.
Reconnecting is easy enough. I can’t stay
In that state forever, but I can find content
In how my life unfolds, and I need not know why.

Letting go of thought is my only intention.
In the absence of resistance I can allow
My vibration to raise. Resonance will happen
With my innermost being. Enlightenment then
Is the logical outcome. I need not know how
The whole process works. My life cannot be undone.

Decide To Feel Good

Happiness Is Your Choice

Often for most people the manifestation
That is not perfect does keep them from creating
One that is perfect. Our choices are limited.
We can suffer a whole lot or feel good instead.
The beginning of the improvement is the thing
Any contrast offers indeed to anyone.

Choosing thoughts that feel better or those that feel worse
Is done at subtle levels of our consciousness.
Let the choice be emotional – of energy.
How do I want to feel in the plexus of me
That is solar in function? Am I more or less
In control of how I feel in this universe?

I can be as happy or as miserable
As I want to be at any given moment.
Consciously I forget that and make wrong choices.
Then I’m haunted internally. Psychic voices
Of perhaps lower selves do their best to prevent
Me from keeping my focus both sharp and stable.

Must I pay in order to receive loving grace
From wherever it comes any time and always?
Love and appreciation are legal tender.
Positive expectation on what I prefer
Is a good form of payment. And infinite praise
I offer to the universe. All I embrace.

Leave It Alone And It Will Come

Never Force Anything

How can I want something and then leave it alone
So that it can occur without driving me mad
In the eternal meantime? By Feeling Worthy?
That seems somehow so terribly simple to me.
If I want something ‘badly’ I offer a sad
Vibration to the universe of all that’s known.

When I want it and expect it, then it must be,
But wanting something badly can only lead to
Constant torment. So how can I leave that alone?
I can’t take my mind off of this thing I must own.
Frequencies sorely differ. That must be a clue
That my worthiness must be felt deep inside me.

But my leaving it alone is really the key.
I have already asked for it. I can move on
To other things of interest. If I allow
Things to happen while staying focused in the now
Then happy is the nature of conclusions drawn
About how things are going with the best of me.

Distraction is a good thing. My getting busy
On something that occupies my mind is sublime.
Yet keeping the mind quiet can work just as well.
Consciousness either way is as clear as a bell.
I alone am the one who controls how much time
It will take for the thing I want to come to me.

Life Mastery

At One With The Flow

When you’re into the flow of things life is a breeze.
You feel full, well connected, and part of the whole
Of all that is created. Ascended masters
Guide you through your existence. Whatever occurs
You remain unaffected. You have trained your soul
To be calm, contented, and quite easy to please.

Your akashic record you may care to peruse.
You are interested in your tapping into
The power of your higher self. There is a way,
But you need not believe in a word that I say
Until you’ve tried some things out. The human in you
Demands proof, or else its truth you’ll flat out refuse.

The body is a complex energy system.
It is composed of chakras. The one that’s outside
Is the Soul Star Chakra. It is above the head.
Through this chakra, divine love you are being fed.
Everyone has this access. It can’t be denied
Nor can it be a thing that someone could condemn.

As you’re grounded and prepared for deeper insights
To come to you, the activation has begun.
In a nice quiet place focus on your breathing.
Imagine white or golden light that is bringing
Loving grace and a peace that’s as warm as the sun
To your Solar Star Chakra through your days and nights.

Getting Answers

Allowing the Guidance

I would like to be able to communicate
Directly with my maker as some of us can.
I know that it is possible for anyone.
I need answers to my questions. I receive none.
Perhaps it is because I am feeling less than
One deserving of answers. It’s worth some debate.

Some people speak with their God as if they’re old friends.
Others do in the same way and call it good luck
Or timing, the right resources, or just magic
To connect them with God. Is there some special trick
To the asking for guidance? Indeed, I’m dumbstruck
By the complex simplicity that life intends.

It is said that it’s subtle in the beginning.
Connecting with your God source means your alignment
With the answer forthcoming and not the question.
It is through meditation that this can be done.
When you quiet the mind you relieve the torment
Of your bad habit of overanalyzing.

Let the questions rest within you but for a day.
Ponder them in great detail to get clarity.
Then the next day get quiet and just meditate
But not on the questions. Confusion you’d create.
When you’ve finished listen for what flows easily.
You become more insightful in living this way.

Only When You’re Excited

When Momentum Has Built Up

I create when I’m happy. It’s a piece of cake
I can eat and have also. There is always more
Where it came from. It feels like I’m dancing on air.
I can do almost anything, and I’m aware
Of the good that keeps coming. I’ve opened the door
To a world of excitement. I’m now wide awake.

Excuses I hold onto are anchors of fear
Of my moving ahead with what I want to do.
I’m bogged down in the details of life as it seems
And there’s not enough time to attend to my dreams.
I can manage my focus to better get through
Difficult situations. I can remain clear.

“Make no effort unless you are feeling your best.”
It’s a motto I live by. If I feel despair
Or discomfort of any kind, I must chill out.
Any action taken will be laden with doubt.
If I’m stuck in that circumstance I must take care
That I don’t bite off way more than I can digest.

Only when I’m excited can I be of use
To myself and to others. I’m able to see
The whole world as does heaven – a near perfect place
That has not been receptive to infinite grace
In the past, which is now. I am able to be
In a state where my greatest work I can produce.

A Message For These Times

Guidance Through Turbulent Momentum

Many roads lead to nowhere as the momentum
Of the fluid uncertainty bathes the weakness
In the soul of humanity. How could one not
Notice and respond to it. Somehow we are caught
In a sea of confusion, hatred, and distress.
Do we need to be fearful of what is to come?

…Not if it’s just a snapshot of how things appear
At this moment in history. The injustice
Cannot go away prior to feeling relief
From all thoughts that have grown to a rigid belief.
Those that do not feel helpful I need to dismiss.
I create my own existential atmosphere.

This journey is more fun than it is not, so I
Can keep reaching for better. To get out ahead
Of whatever is happening is to pre-pave
How my next moments unfold and how I’ll behave
No matter what the circumstance. Life I can tread
From a place of alignment where I need not try.

Constant knee jerk responding to talk in the news
Is the way to keep focused on how things are now.
At a turning point we are, and whichever way
It can turn is my pleasure, which means I will stay
In the state of receiving. The love I allow
Keeps me free of the turmoil. Thus I cannot lose.

Activate The Magic

Use Your Natural Power

If you want to make things happen magically
You must get out ahead of them, but if you’ve got
Negative momentum going, things that occur
Are not what you expect nor what you would prefer.
Circumstances you can control without a lot
Of hard work and the delving into misery.

The advantage of Segment Intending is that
You can plan how the next moments are to unfold.
Making positive statements about what’s to come
Focuses your attention. Your magic comes from
That which powers the universe in ways untold
And it is not a matter of mortal combat.

Meditation helps, but your Segment Intending
Is your thinking about what you’re thinking about
Whereas with meditation, no thought is the goal.
Both are useful processes. Each can make one whole.
The whole purpose of each is to leave you no doubt
That you are the important piece in everything.

Do not segment intend to try to fix something.
Do it to derive pleasure in the here and now
For the upcoming segment. Your satisfaction
Factor will be enormous. It all can be fun.
Feeling appreciated and loved, you allow
All the things that are due you that make your heart sing.

Timing Is None Of Your Business

Let Momentum Unfold

Many things are in the process of becoming.
So is it possible for timing to be off
On something that is so right? Of course that can be.
To call it wrong timing is unnecessary.
At this notion your truer self would surely scoff
One can take care of business by doing nothing.

Timing is none of your business, and this is why.
Throughout your life you have gathered much momentum.
All cooperative components are in place
To bestow upon you an intelligent grace.
You can trust that what you have will always come from
How you take to the process you cannot deny.

What it would be like you can only imagine…
Alone trying to move all the pieces around.
There are too many of them. Leaving them alone
Relieves you of the task of grasping the unknown.
By trusting in the process content can be found.
Then you will witness timing like it’s never been.

Find one reason after another to partake
Of the feeling of satisfaction through your day.
Know that all that you’ve asked for is manifested
In vibrational escrow. You are not tested
In the least by the process. Take time out to play.
You’re no master of timing so give it a break.

Where Is Heaven?

Finding The Way Within

Heaven is on this earth plane, some people have said.
But for me to believe that there’d have to be some
Lame condition that would have to be satisfied.
Yet what I dare demand offers access denied.
I have trouble believing that the kingdom come
Has no queen and is right here on this rock instead.

We are told that the nature of heaven is bliss
And of unending loving of God and of all
That exists to cast love upon, including us
Through our intimate journeys and absent the fuss
Of conditions of any kind. No one is small
In this place of pure spirit. I do believe this.

Could heaven be connected to earth in some way
That makes one an imperfectly real reflection
Of the rest of existence? If this could be true
It becomes then much easier to take the view
That I do have some trouble with. I am the one
Who shall find the connection to joy come what may.

This fantastic phenomenon of existence
Remains all that has ever been projected here
In this moment. This leading edge of creation
Is where spirit is focused. Each and everyone
Of us is part of heaven that heaven holds dear.
The freedom offered by this notion is immense.

Breathing

The Ultimate Cure

Do I know that I’m breathing? Sometimes I forget
In the everyday business I put myself through.
So I’m given a hiccup, a belch, or a yawn
By the forces of nature which I depend on
Because I can’t remember some things I must do.
Have I come to know air as a vital asset?

I can use it to focus on since I’ve learned how.
Things I need to distract myself from are many.
Thoughts that carry resistance, by breath I release
To God’s infinite knowing. I find inner peace
Through a technique of breathing that’s just right for me.
It’s the best way I know to relax and allow.

The flow inward and outward of life giving air
Parallels with digestion. All cyclic function
Makes a pump of the body in integral ways.
If all systems are synchronized the body stays
Easily and rightly in its best condition.
Breathing is something that should be given some care.

Make your conscious attention to your breath your friend.
It will lower your blood pressure and calm your nerves.
Clarity and new insights will replace all doubt.
Any moment you have cannot be one without
The continuing cycle that all life deserves.
It’s the best advice anyone could recommend.

It Starts Now

There Is No Past Or Future

No past ever existed except in the mind.
When the universe was created, it was now.
It still is now and will be forever, you see.
Like the wake of a ship, now trails off completely.
But the ship is the one place where I can allow
Now to guide my existence. Without it I’m blind.

The wake can be used to explain things in detail
Before it becomes nothingness. Such is the past.
It resides in odd places – not reality.
All the answers to questions I’m finding to be
In the ultimate present that I can make last
Quite as long as I want. Let the moment prevail.

Needed transformation of human consciousness
When done through meditation can get frustrated
By untidy spiritual one upmanship.
I may not need a teacher. I’m on my own trip.
My awakening moment is long awaited.
All I need do is trust in the simple process.

I can always look over my shoulder and say
That my issues result from some past condition.
I can’t blame anyone or thing outside of me.
What I can do is decide who I am to be
And remember that in this life all that is done
Occurs right in this moment, all day, every day.

Stop The Chatter

Mental Noise Reduction

When you contact a company by telephone
What you get is a lengthy recorded ordeal
That tells you to push buttons and listen with care.
“Menu options have changed,” so you’d better beware.
There’s no choice but to listen to what you are told.
They’ll treat you like a robot for reasons quite known.

Similar is the commerce in the atmosphere
Of the world of your thoughts. They’ll not leave you alone,
And you just can’t ignore them. The seeming power
Of the ruthless thought engine threatens to devour
Your reserved psychic energy. You can postpone
All the negative chatter until you are clear.

Would it be nice to be in a thoughtlessness state
At your own will and easily with every try?
Benefits are enormous for spirit and mind.
When your mind is relieved of the chatter, you’ll find
Peace and utter contentment. There’s no reason why
Not to try this method. There’s no reason to wait.

Close you eyes and just watch your thoughts as they drift by.
Do not stop them. Just watch them, and don’t get involved.
Ask yourself this question, “What will be my next thought?”
Then do nothing but wait. Not an answer is sought.
Now the issue of noise in your mind is resolved.
The mind that is in waiting thought can’t occupy.

The Nutshell Of All Being

The Cooperative Network of Existence

The process in a nutshell of manifesting
Is a series of five steps. The first is, I ask.
That I can’t help but doing. Life shows me contrast
So that I’ll want for better. It may not come fast
Yet asking is not nearly as daunting a task
As preparing and waiting to get everything.

Step two is, it is answered by the universe
That is not of my doing, but I must believe
The vibrational version that I’ve created.
All that I need to do is keep looking ahead
On the way to fulfillment. I’m not so naïve
As to think it can’t happen. That would be a curse.

So the gist of step three is admitting it’s real
And accept that what I ask is already done.
Then step four is getting really good at step three.
Stepping into alignment comes naturally.
I’ve found out how to quiet my mind and have fun.
I’m worthy of the goodness that life may reveal.

Step five is to experience contrast again
And know that it’s a good thing. It helps me to grow.
Expansion is what’s wanted. I need solutions
Which means that I need problems. Thus the cycle runs
In an unending fashion. This is good to know.
In a nutshell, I always end up where I’ve been.

Ask And Expect

Your World Awaits

Is it possible that I don’t ask hard enough?
That it hasn’t come true yet is clear in my mind.
Can’t I just let the process work out on its own?
I can’t be in the receiving mode if I moan
About what hasn’t happened. Comfort I can find
In the fact that my focus is making things tough.

I can’t hold myself in the awareness of lack
And expect good to happen. It works not that way.
I must feel the excitement and then let it go
Or else build more upon it so that it may grow
To obsessive magnificence, and I will stay
In sublime expectation. All is well on track.

Ask briefly then expect. That’s the best way to go.
I can feel how keen my awareness is of things
As they are – somewhat hopeless. It adds resistance
Into the whole equation. I welcome the chance
To test infinite powers. How I’m feeling brings
About manifestations of joy or sorrow.

I want there to be safety and justice for all.
Those conditions I can’t control. What I can do
Is keep myself creatively focused on joy.
Nothing but my awareness of hate can destroy
Any hope of fulfillment. I am the one who
Makes the final decision to engage the small.

Shorten The Time

Rely On The Timeless

Happy Days were upon us. Some want their return
And will do anything to grasp tightly those roots.
Onward though does the dial move away from the past.
Fettered dreams of simplicity fade away fast
In the heated up present. Regretful pursuits
Are the game plans of many with little concern.

Some believe our democracy hangs by a thread
As perhaps it did always from its bloody start.
It is something to fight for. Just saying the word
At the start of our sports events is as absurd
As the sheer lack of justice that cuts to the heart
Of a once perceived order that now appears dead.

All the things that I’ve wanted this nation to be
Is a dream that I still have. The contrast is good
As it causes me to fill in much more detail.
I’d prefer it not be at the pace of a snail.
How do I cut the time frame, indeed if I could?
…By not focusing on things I don’t want to see.

I improve my ability to recognize
What it is that I’m wanting. It’s perceptual
In its humble beginning. Yet it picks up speed.
Focusing more there, I am essentially freed
To explore all the fruits of my best accrual.
One small change in my outlook is one worthy prize.
