God and the Angels discuss DIVINITY

"Now that we've got the earth and we've got the sky and the mountains and the rivers and the moon and the stars, now we will create man. Where shall we hide the truth of his being from him?

Photograph by Caterina Armenter 2008

One of them said, "Let's hide it on the highest mountain top." "No, eventually he will learn to scale the mountains, He will find it." God said. "Let's take it down to the very deepest part of the ocean." "No, don't hide it in the deepest part of the ocean. Eventually, man will learn how to go to the darkest, deepest part of the ocean. Don't hide it there." "Well, let's hide it on the moon, then." "No, eventually he'll go to the moon and get it there." Finally, they all knew…all at once, exactly where to hide the truth where mankind would never look for it, and that was within himself. So all of the avatars, all the great teachers, all the saints and sages of all time have said there is a place in you that is absolutely holy. There is a place in you that is absolutely pure. There is a place in you that is divine. And it is God, and the kingdom is within you.

A TEAR OF GRATITUDE

Every night I reflect on my day and anything that I can’t be thankful for, I go back and look at it from a more whole perspective, until I can . I run through things that I can be grateful for and I don’t stop doing that in any area of my life until I get a tear of gratitude. This is when my mind has been washed clean of delusions.

I go inward into my inner most being into my soul and ask my inner most being for guidance, what message do you have for me inner most being? What mission do you have for me? What direction do you have for me? What am I here to do? I ask this question every night and document it, When the tear of gratitude comes, the message will be very concise, if I document this every day, my message will become very clear and my vision will be very clear, I will know what I am here to do.

Every morning I prioritize the actions that will allow me to do what I am here to do, primarily because any details that I leave out of my day, somebody else will fill in, so I might as well fill up the day the way I would love it to be instead of leaving it to fear.

When the voice and the vision in the inside is louder and more profound than all opinions on the outside I have mastered my life.

I am writing to express my support for the recently adopted rules to improve the accountability of broadcasters who use the public airwaves to serve the news and informational needs of their communities. The new rules are about bringing greater transparency to the ways in which broadcasters are serving the diverse and local needs of their audiences. They are about holding the broadcasters accountable to communities for the programming that they air. Media consolidation has reduced localism and the diversity of voices in cities and towns across the country. Many broadcasters place serving their own financial interest over serving the public interest. These proposals are common sense and fundamental to broadcasters’ obligation to serve their local community interests. They represent extremely modest attempts to address the growing concerns of American citizens across the country who experience and fear the loss of local voices on their airwaves, the disappearance in coverage of local civic information, and the decreasing amount of original programming that speaks to diverse community needs. Please protect these new rules and allow the public to hold TV broadcasters accountable to their communities. Thank you.

YESTERDAY'S AFFIRMATION:

WHEN AN INDIVIDUAL IS KEPT IN A SITUATION OF INFERIORITY,
THE FACT IS THAT HE DOES BECOME INFERIOR.

ONE IS NOT BORN A WOMAN, ONE BECOMES ONE.

Simone de Beauvoir

AFFIRMATION #12:

A true heart builds a castle of happiness inside the depths of one’s own being while touching others with a kind caring smile, open dialogue and unconditional giving.

 

AFFIRMATION #11

A poem by Kahlil Gibran

Then a woman said, Speak to us of Joy and Sorrow   
And he answered:   

Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.   
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was often times filled with your tears.

And how else can it be?   

The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.   
Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?   
And is not the lute that soothes you spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?

When you are joyous,   
look deep into your heart and you shall find   
it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.   
When you are sorrowful   
look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth,   
you are weeping for that which has been your delight.   

Some of you say, "Joy is greater than sorrow," and others say, "Nay sorrow is the greater."   
But I say unto you, they are inseparable.   
Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at you board, remember that the other is asleep upon you bed.   

Verily you are suspended like scales between you sorrow and your joy.   
Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.   
When the treasure-keeper lifts you to weight his gold and his silver, needs must your joy or your sorrow rise or fall. 

AFFIRMATION #10

The stars are constantly shining, but we do not see them until the dark hours.

AFFIRMATION #9:

"Fix your mind inwardly between the eyebrows on the shoreless lake of peace. Watch the eternal circle of rippling peace around you. The more you watch intently, the more you will feel the wavelets of peace spreading from the eyebrows to the forehead, from the forehead to the heart, and on to every cell in your body. Now the waters of peace are overflowing the banks of your body and inundating the vast territory of your mind. The flood of peace flows over the boundaries of your mind and moves on in infinite directions."

                                                   Paramahansa Yogananda

AFFIRMATION #8

"Heavenly Father, Mother, Friend, Beloved God! May Thy love shine forever on the sanctuary of my devotion, and may I be able to awaken Thy love in all hearts.”

                   Paramahansa Yogananda

AFFIRMATION #7

Follow your bliss, and the life you ought to be living 
is the one you are living, and meeting the people
 who are in the field of your bliss. Don't be afraid for if you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.

Joseph Campbell

AFFIRMATION #6

In any way that men love me, in that same way they find my love: for many are the paths of men, but they all in the end come to me.

           Krsihna, Bhagavad Gita 4:11

There are many paths or religions to reach God, but only one common ground, Love.

In the way we manifest our love for ourselves and others, God is impacted.

AFFIRMATION #5

Bearing without possessing, Nurturing without taming, Shaping without forcing, This is harmony. Harmony is only in following THE WAY.

THE WAY is without form or quality, But expresses all forms and qualities; THE WAY is hidden and implicate, But expresses all of nature; THE WAY is unchanging, But expresses all motion.

Beneath sensation and memory THE WAY is the source of all the world. How can I understand the source of the world? By accepting."

Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu

Written around the sixth century B.C.

AFFIRMATION #4

I KEEP MY MIND CENTERED ON THE THOUGHT OF

THE ALL KNOWING GOD

WHO IS THE SOURCE OF ALL POWER AND ALL ACCOMPLISHMENT

"“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind”"

Albert Einstein

"Out yonder, there is this huge world, which exists independently of human beings and which stands before us like a great, eternal riddle, at least partially accessible to our inspection and thinking."

Albert Einstein called his brand of religion the `cosmic religion.

“…everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit manifests in all the laws of the universe — a spirit vastly superior to that of man and one in the face of which we with modest powers must feel humble."

AFFIRMATION #3

AS I HAVE FAITH SO SHALL MY POWERS AND BLESSINGS BE, AND AS TO THE EXTENT THAT I AFFIRM THAT THIS IS POSSIBLE, THIS IS POSSIBLE. I ALONE HAVE THE KEY, TO UNLOCK THE CAGE AND LET THE BIRD FLY FREE.

"A little of This is beyond all fear and eliminates all fear"

Krishna said to Arjuna on the battlefield.

All Knowing, guide me towards REALIZATION, for only in this awareness am I well.

In Matthew 7:7-8 - Jesus said, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.

In Matthew 21:21-22 - Jesus said, " . . also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."

AFFIRMATION #1

Let nothing upset you; Let nothing frighten you. Everything is changing; God alone is changeless. Patience attains the goal. Who has God lacks nothing: God alone fills all our needs.
