THE MEDITATION

 

                                                  MEDITATE WITH JOY

                             CREATION MEDITATION (YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE AUDIO GUIDANCE AT GABBYBERNSTEIN.COM/UNIVERSE):

                             BEFORE WE BEGIN, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A NOTEBOOK AND PEN BESIDE YOU. YOU WILL USE THEM IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE MEDITATION.

                          IF YOU LIKE TO MEDITATE TO MUSIC, I OFTEN RECOMMEND USING A CERTAIN MANTRA FOR THIS VISIONING MEDITATION. THIS KUNDALINI MANTRA IS EK ONG KAR SAT GUR PRASAD SAT GUR PRASAD EX OMG KAR. THIS MANTRA MEANS IS THE ONLY KUNDALINI MANTRA THAT COMES WITH A WARNING. WHATEVER YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT WHILE LISTENING TO OR SINGING THE MANTRA WILL MANIFEST IN YOUR LIFE. YOU WILL BE IN SUCH A STATE OF MANIFESTATION THAT YOUR THOUGHTS WILL HAVE EVEN MORE POWER THAN USUAL. SIMPLY STAY AWARE OF YOUR THOUGHTS WHILE LISTENING TO THE MANTRA AND CONSCIOUSLY CHOOSE TO LEARN TOWARD WHAT YOU DESIRE.

              

  YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE MANTRA AT GABBYBERNSTEIN.COM/UNIVERSE.

                   YOU CAN DOWNLOAD IN SILENCE OR WITH THE MANTRA. 

                   SIT COMFORTABLY ON THE FLOOR OR A CHAIR AND CLOSE YOUR EYES.

                ROLL YOUR SHOULDERS BACK AND STRAIGHTEN YOUR SPINE, PLACE YOUR PALMS ON YOUR THIGHS FACING UPWARD TO RECEIVE THE ENERGY OF THE UNIVERSE.

               TAKE A DEEP BREATH IN AND EXPAND YOUR DIAPHRAGM. ON THE EXHALE ALLOW YOUR DIAPHRAGM TO CONTRACT CONTINUE THIS CYCLE OF LONG, DEEP BREATHS THROUGHOUT YOUR MEDITATION.

               TAKE A MOMENT TO THINK OF DESIRE THAT YOU'VE CARRIED FOR SOME TIME. POSSIBLY A ROMANTIC LOVE THAT YOU HOPE FOR , A SENSE OF PHYSICAL OR EMOTIONAL PEACE, A BABY, OR EVEN REACHING A PLACE OF CLARITY AND INSPIRATION.

 

               HONOR YOUR DESIRE NOW.

              NOW LEAN INTO THIS DESIRE EVEN MORE.

              BEGIN TO IMAGINE YOURSELF LIVING OUT THIS INTENTION. SEE YOURSELF  WALKING HAND IN HAND WITH YOUR ROMANTIC PARTNER. OR SEE YOUR BODY FREE FROM PAIN AND ILLNESS. WHAT IMAGES COME TO MIND? SIMPLY ALLOW YOUR MIND TO WANDER AND BLESS YOU WITH CREATIVE VISIONS.

 

              HONOR WHATEVER VISIONS COME TO MIND. IF AT ANY TIME DURING YOUR MEDITATION YOU FEEL A SENSE OF DOUBT OR FEAR, SIMPLY HONOR THE FEELING.

            FEEL IT IN YOUR BODY AND ALLOW IT TO PASS. YOU DON'T NEED TO PUSH AWAY THE FEAR OR DOUBT. JUST ALLOW IT TO COME AND GO THROUGHOUT YOUR CREATIVE MEDITATION JOURNEY. HONOR THE FEELING, AND THEN RETURN TO THE VISION OF WHAT YOU DESIRE.

               CONTINUE TO COMMIT EVEN MORE TO THE VISIONS YOU DESIRE.

              BREATHE EVEN DEEPER NOW, AND YOUR BREATH TO ALIGN YOUR PHYSICAL ENERGY WITH THE EMOTIONS OF YOUR CREATIVE VISIONS. LET THE FEELING OF THE VISION MOVE THROUGH YOU NATURALLY.

             SIT COMFORTABLY FOR 5 TO 10 MINUTES IN THE ENERGY OF THIS CREATIVE FLOW.

            (IF YOU CHOOSE TO LISTEN TO THE MANTRA IN YOUR MEDITATION YOU CAN CHANT ALONG WITH EK ONG KAR SAT GUR PRASAD SAT GUR PRASAD EK OMG KAR). 

            WHEN YOU'RE READY, GENTLY TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND RELEASE THEM. THEN OPEN YOUR EYES TO THE ROOM.

             IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING YOUR MEDITATION OPEN A NOTEBOOK. AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE WRITE. THANK YOU, INNER WISDOM, FOR WRITING THROUGH ME. I INVITE THE LOVING ENERGY OF THE UNIVERSE TO TAKE OVER AND LEAD ME TO A PLACE OF CERTAINLY.

               FREE-WRITE FOR 10 MINUTES. WRITE DOWN THE VISIONS YOU RECEIVED. LET YOUR PEN FLOW, AND DON'T EDIT A WORD.

                      ENERGY FLOWS WHERE YOUR INTENTION GOES

                                 UNDERSTAND THE POWER OF JOY

              EMPOWERING INTENTIONS BRING US JOY, AND JOY IS THE CATALYST FOR ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THIS WORLD. MY FRIEND ROBERT HOLDEN SAYS, WHEN WE COMMIT TO JOY WE INCREASE OUR CHANCES FOR SUCCESS'. I LOVE THAT STATEMENT. BUT MANY PEOPPLE HAVE CHOSEN, CONSCIOUSLY OR NOT, LE LEAN TOWARD FEAR. IN SOME WAY, WE GET LOST IN THE STORY THAT PAIN HAS PURPOSE, OR WE BUT INTO THE BELIEF THAT A MEANINGFUL LIFE REQUIRES STRUGGLE. THESE LIMITING BELIEFS CAN HAVE DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES.

                     IN REALITY, THE MORE JOYFUL WE ARE, THE MORE LIGHT WE SHINE ON THE WORLD, THE MORE POWER WE HAVE TO EXPRESS OUR PRESENCE, AND THE MORE POSITIVE ENERGY WE PUT OUT.

                 THAT PLACE OF POWER IS THE SOURCE OF THE ENERGY  NECESSARY TO SHOW UP AND SERVE. THE INPIRATION BEHIND CREATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR SEEMINGLY HOPELESS PROBLEMS, AND THE ACCESS TO GENEROSITY FOR GIVING MORE WHERE THERE IS NEED.

                EVEN ONE PERSON'S PRESENCE OF JOY HAS THE CAPACITY TO LEAVE A MASSIVELY POSITIVE IMPRINT ON A LOCAL COMMUNITY AND A GLOBAL LANDSCAPE. THE ENERGY OF PEACE, LOVE, AND JOY HAS THE POWER TO SHIFT THE WORLD. MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI WAS A SPIRITUAL TEACHER WHO FOUNDED THE TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION MOVEMENT IN INDIA IN THE 1950S AND THEN BROUGHT THE PRACTICE TO THE WEST. HE PREDICTED THAT IF ONE PERCENT OF A POPULATION MEDITATED, THE COHERENCE OF THE GROUP WOULD HAVE THE POWER TO IMPROVE AN ENTIRE POPULATION'S QUALITY OF LIFE. HE BELIEVED THAT THE UNIFIED FIELD, JOY AND CALMING ENERGY, OF THE GROUP WOULD HAVE THE CAPACITY OF BRING INCREASED PEACE AND HARMONY TO THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY. MAHARISHI THEORIZED THAT WHEN GROUPS OF PEOPLE MEDITATE TOGETHER WITH SHARED INTENTIONS FOR PEACE, THEIR APLPHA BRAIN WAVES THEN CAUSES PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT MEDITATING TO RECEIVE THE SAME PROPERTIES IN THEIR SUBCONSCIOUS MINDS.

                 MAHARISHI'S PROPHECY WAS PROVEN RIGHT IN A STUDY PUBLISHED IN 1976. A GROUP OF MONKS WAS SENT INTO A CRIME-RIDDEN COMMUNITY. IN THIS CASE THE NUMBER OF MONKS SENT REPRESENTED ONE PERCENT OF THAT COMMUNITY'S TOTAL POPULATION. THE MONKS PRACTICED MEDITATION IN THE COMMUNITY, AND, TIME, THE CRIME RATE DROPPED BY AN ASTOUNDING 16 PERCENT. THIS PHENOMENON - THE POWER OF MEDITATIVE JOYFUL ENERGY TO SHIFT THE ENERGY OF THE COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUS - IS CALLED THE MAHARISHI EFFECT. THE REASON THE MAHARISHI EFFECT WORKS IS BECAUSE THE MEDITATING GROUPS ALPHA BRAIN WAVES THE FUNCTIONING AT A POWERFUL LEVEL, ABLE TO PERMEATE THE ATMOSPHERE TO  REACH PEPLE IN THE SME GEOGRAPHICAL REGION TO HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON THEIR HEARTS, MINDS, AND ACTIONS. FOR MORE ON THIS TOPIC, SEE DAVID W.ORME-JOHNSON'S 2003 ARTICLE "PREVENTING CRIME THROUGH THE MAHARISHI EFFECT". IN THE JOURNAL OF OFFENDER REHABILITATION.

                 WHEN A CRITICAL MASS OF MEDITATORS COMES TOGETHER, THEIR PRACTICE CAN BRING ORDER TO A SOCIETY AND EVEN TO THE ENTIRE PLANET. CARL JUNG, THE ICONIC PSYCHOLOGIST AND PSYCHIATRIST SAID:

                OUR PERSONAL PSYCHOLOGY IS JUST A THIN SKIN,  A

               RIPPLE ON THE OCEAN OF COLLECTIVE PSYCHOLOGY. THE 

               POWERFUL FACTOR, THE FACTOR THAT CHANGES OUR WHOLE

               LIFE, WHICH CHANGES THE SURFACE OF OUR KNOWN

               WORLD, WHICH MAKES HISTORY, IS COLLECTIVE PSYCHE,

               AND COLLECTIVE PSYCHE MOVES ACCORDIG TO LAWS

               ENTIRELY DIFFERENT FROM THOSE OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS

              DEEP WITHIN OUR OWN AWARENESS WE HAVE A DIRECT LINE TO THE UNIFIED FIELD OF ENERGY. THROUGH PRAYER, MEDITATION, POSITIVE INTENTIONS, AND JOY, WE CAN ENLIVEN THAT FIELD AND CREATE A RIPPLE EFFECT OF PEACE IN TEH WORLD. IF YOU MAKE JOY YOUR PRIORITY AND TUNE IN TO THIS JOY DAILY THROUGH YOUR MEDITATION, NOT ONLY WILL YOU FEEL DEEPLY CONNECTED. YOU WILL ALSO HAVE A HUGE IMPACT ON THE PEOPLE AND CIRCUMSTANCES IN YOUR LIFE AND THE LIVES OF PEOPLE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW. YOU HAVE THE POWER TO BE A SPIRITUAL ACTIVIST. THROUGH YOUR POSITIVE ENERGY YOU CAN BRING FORTH GREAT HEALING TO EVERYONE AROUND YOU. THE ENERGY WE PUT OUT IS EITHER POLLUTING THE PLANTET OR HEALING IT. WHICH DO YOUR CHOOSE?

                                                MEDITATION FOR ONENESS

<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-2132216722897449"

     crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

                        TO CLOSE OUT THE JUDGMENT CLEARING PROCESS, FOLLOW THIS BEATIFUL KUNDALINI MEDITATION. THIS MEDITATION IS DESIGNED TO REMIND US THAT WE ALL HAVE A SHARED ESSENCE THAT IS BEYONG OUR PHYSICAL SITE. PRACTICE THIS MEDITATION AND RECONNECT TO THE ESSENCE TO EXPERIENCE ONENESS IN THIS MOMENT.

                    POSTURE/MUDRA : SIT COMFORTABLY CROSS-LEGGED ON THE FLOOR WITH A STRAIGHT SPINE. PLACE YOUR RIGHT FIRST AS YOUR SIDE WITH THE INDEX FINGER POINTING UP, AND PLACE THE LEFT HAND OVER THE HEART CENTER. YOU CAN ALSO DO THIS MEDITATION SITTING BACK-TO-BACK WITH A PARTNER.

                    MANTRA : I RECOMMEND  THAT YOU PLAY THE SONG, "I AM THINE", BY JAI-JAGDEESH. YOU CAN ACCESS THE MUSIC AT GABBY BERNSTEIN.COM/UNIVERSE. THE MANTRA IS : HUMEE HUM, TUMEE TUM, WAHE GURU, I AM THINE, IN MINE, MYSELF, WAHE GURU.

                THIS MEDITATION CELEBRATES THE CONNECTION WE HAVE TO OTHERS THROUGH OUR SHARED CONNECTION TO THE UNVERSE. HUMEE HUM TUNES US IN TO OUR OWN CONSCIOUSNESS. TUMEE TUM ACCEPTS THAT WE ARE ONE WITH THE OTHER PERSON'S CONSCIOUSNESS. WAHE GURU MEANS THAT WE ARE BOTH CONNECTED TO THE UNIVERSE. FINALLY WE CELEBRATE THIS UNIVERSAL CONNECTION WITH WAHE GURU.

                       CHANT WITH THE MUSIC FOR 11 MINUTES (OR LESS)

                IF YOU'RE NEW TO CHANTING MANTRAS, GIVE IT  TRY. I FELL IN LOVE WITH KUNDALINI YOGA AND MEDITATION BECAUSE OF THE MANTRAS. I LOSE MYSELF IN THE MANTRA, AND I REMEMBER MY INTERCONNECTEDNESS WITH THE UNIVERSE. 

 

               I CHOSE THIS SPECIFIC KUNDALINI MEDITATION TO CONCLUDE THE JUDGMENT-CLEARING PROCESS SO THAT YOU CAN HAVE AN INTIMATE EXPERIENCE OF WHAT IT TRULY FEELS LIKE TO RELEASE THE WALLS OF SEPERATION AND REALIGN WITH THE ONENESS IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS.

               PRACTICE THESE FOUR STEPS, AND STICK AROUND FOR THE MIRACLES. FREEDOM IS AVAILABLE TO YOU INSTANTLY. IT WILL CONTINUE TO UNFOLD AS YOU STAY COMMITTED TO RELEASING JUDGMENT. REMEMBER THAT JUDGMENT IS A NASTY HABIT. THE MORE YOU PRACTICE THESE PRINCIPLES, THE WEAKER THE WEAKER THE HABIT WILL BE AND THE MORE FREEDOM YOU WILL EXPERIENCE.

               THE SECOND STEP WAS MY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF HOW THIS JUDGMENT MADE ME FEEL - DISAPPOINTED, PHYSICALLY ILL, AND SADDENED.

                 I WAS READY TO MOVE INTO THE THIRD STEP OF LETTING GO OF THE SHADOWS OF THE PAST. IN THAT MOMENT I DECIDED TO SEE THE AIRLINE ATTENDANT AS IF I WERE MEETING HER FOR THE FIRST TIME. I CHOSE TO SEE HER WITH NO SEPERATION. RATHER THAN PERCEIVING HER AS  SEPARATE, I CHOSE TO SEE HER AS ONE WITH ME. ONCE AGAIN I HEARD THE WORDS OF YOGI BHAJAN RINGING IN MY EAR, RECOGNIZE THE OTHER PERSON IS YOU.

               FOR FURTHER GUIDANCE, I CALLED ON THE HOLY INSTANT FOR SUPPORT, I SAID MY PRAYER, I RECOGNIZE THAT I HAVE CHOSEN WRONGLY, I FORGIVE THIS THOUGHT, AND I CHOOSE AGAIN. I CHOOSE LOVE.

                 INSTANTLY I FELT BETTER, (I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT THE HOLY INSTANT). I SAT IN THE MEDITATION, LISTENED TO MY MANTRA, AND ALLOWED THE PRESENCE OF LOVE TO SETTLE BACK IN. A GLOWING SENSE OF PEACE PASSED OVER ME. I NO LONGER FELT RESENTMENT AND INSTANT FELT A DEEP CONNECTION. I HEARD THE VOICE OF MY INNER WISDOM SAY, SHE IS YOU. HER PAIN IS YOURS. HER SUFFERING IS YOURS. AND YOU BOTH WANT THE SAME THING, TO RETURN TO PEACE.

                                

<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-2132216722897449"

     crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

                I CAME OUT OF MY MEDITATION AND THE JUDGMENT HAD LIFTED. I COULD SEE HER ME, AND I WAS FREE. AT THIS POINT I CALMLY READ MY BOOK AND RELAXED. A LITTLE WHILE LATER, WHEN I WALKED PAST THE FRONT DESH WHERE SHE SAT, I FELT A PRESENCE BEHIND MY SHOULDER SHOW ME DOWN. WITHOUT THOUGHT OR PLANNING, I STOOD IN FRONT OF THE DESK, LOOKED HER IN THE EYE, AND SAID, "I APOLOGIZE FOR SPEAKING TO YOU THAT WAY, IT WAS INAPPROPRIATE, AND I HOPE YOU CAN FORGIVE ME". SHE SMILED WITH JOY AND REPLIED, " I AM  SORRY YOU'RE HAVING SUCH A HARD DAY, AND PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I CAN MAKE IT BETTER". THIS WAS A MIRACLE MOMENT, I LEFT THE AIRPORT THAT NIGHT EXHAUSTED, HUNGRY, AND A LITTLE CLOSER TO GOD.

                    I PRACTICE OF RELEASING JUDGMENT DISSOLVES ALL BOUNDARIES WITH LOVE. IT BRIGS US BACK TO THE TRUTH. THAT WE'RE ALL IN IT TOGETHER. WE ALL SUFFER. WE ALL FEEL UNWORTHY AND ABANDONED. CALLING ON THE HOLY INSTANT ALLOWS US TO REMINDER THAT WE ARE ALL THE SAME, AND SO WE SHOULD BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER. IDENTIFYING THIS SAMENESS IS WHAT ALLOWS US TO SHIFT OUR FOCUS FROM SEPERATION TO LOVE. THE SAME WAY WE SHARE THE THOUGHT SYSTEM OF FEAR, WE ALSO SHARE THE LOVING MIND. MOST IMPORTANT, WE SHARE THE SAME CAPACITY TO CHOOSE LOVE OVER FEAR. AS MY DEAR TEACHER KENNETH WAPNICK SAID, 'WE SEE THAT WE ALL HAVE THE SAME INTEREST OF AWAKENING FROM THE DREAM OF UNKINDNESS AND RETURNING TO THE KINDNESS WHO CREATED US KIND."

 

                           

                      LET'S RECAP THE FOLLOWING

                  * BE WILLING TO RELEASING JUDGMENT AND ACCEPT THAT YOU HAVE

                     CHOSEN FEAR.

                  * FORGIVE THE JUDGMENTAL THOUGHT WITH THIS PRAYER, "I                                           RECOGNIZE THAT I HAVE CHOSEN FEAR, AND I CHOOSE AGAIN. I                                     CHOOSE LOVE".

                  * LET GO OF THE SHADOW OF THE PAST BY SEEING SOMEONE FOR THE                             FIRST TIME WITH THE EYES OF LOVE.

                  * PRACTICE THE KUNDALINI MEDITATION, AND RECOGNIZE THE OTHER                         PERSON IS YOU.

                           THIS FOUR-STEP PROCESS CAN SET YOU FREE ONE MOMENT AT A TIME. EACH TIME WE RELEASE JUDGMENT AND RETURN TO LOVE, WE EXPERIENCE A MIRACLE. WHEN WE ADD UP THESE MIRACLE MOMENTS, WE GET MORE DEEPLY ALIGNED WITH OUR TRUE NATURE AND THE SUPPORT OF THE UNIVERSE. WHENEVER YOU PRACTICE CLEARING JUDGMENT, A LOVING ANSWER AND SOLUTION WILL COME THROUGH FOR YOU. AS THE COURSE SAYS, "ALL THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN WILL COME TO YOUR AID". LET LOVE GUIDE EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND DO.

                       IN CHAPTER 10 I GUIDE YOU TO SEE HOW YOUR CONSCIOUS CONNECTION TO LOVE CAN CLEAR THE PATH FOR PEACE AND HARMONY.

PATH OF HUMANITY

 

                                                      

                                                          ❤HUMANITY❤

     crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

                              TO TRULY FLOURISH ON YOUR SPIRITUAL PATH, YOU MUST EMBODY HUMANITY. KNOWING THAT YOU ARE ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE MEANS THAT YOU ACCEPT THAT YOU'RE NOT MORE SPECIAL THAN OR SEPARATE FROM OTHERS. THIS MAY BE ONE OF THE MOST CHALLENGING SPIRITUAL ASSIGNMENTS, AS WE'VE GROWN TO BELIEVE IN THE STORIES OF WHO WE THINK WE ARE.

                               HUMANITY DOESN'T COME EASILY. AT LEAST IT DIDN'T FOR ME. WHILE I SPENT MANY YEARS DEEPLY COMMITTED TO MY SPIRITUAL PATH, I WAS EQUALLY COMMITTD TO THE OUTWARD PRETENSES I'D BUILT UP AROUND MYSELF. DEEP DOWN I KNEW THAT THIS EGO PERCEPTION WAS BLOCKING MY CONNECTION TO LOVE, BUT IT WASN'T AN EASY HABIT TO KICK. THANKFULLY THE UNIVERSE PRESENTED ME WITH A DIVINE ASSIGNMENT THAT FORCED ME TO SEEK HUMANITY, SHED MY EGO, AND GET RIGHT-SIZE.

                                                                            👀

                           HERE IS HOW IT HAPPENED. NOT LONG EGO, I WAS LEFT OUT OF AN EVENT ORGANIZED BY A PROMINENT TEACHER IN MY FIELD THAT FEATURED A FEW OF MY CONTEMPORARIES. THE FACT THAT I WASN'T ASKED TO PARTICIPATE SERIOUSLY BRUISHED MY EGO. AND WHILE I WOULDN'T ADMIT IT TO ANYONE, I WAS REALLY UPSET BY WHAT I CONSIDERED A MISSED OPPORTUNITY. I ASKED MY PUBLICIST TO LOOK INTO IT AND FIND OUT WHY I WAS LEFT OFF THE ROSTER. AFTER A LITTLE DIGGING, SHE CALLED ME AND SAID, "GAB, THIS IS REALLY STRANGE. WHEN I ASKED THEM WHY THEY DIDN'T CONSIDER YOU, THE WOMEN IN CHARGE OF THE EVENT LOOKED AT EACH OTHER SILENTLY FOR A SECOND AND  THEN RESPONDED THAT THEY FELT YOU WERE SELF-ENTITLED". I RESPONDED WITH A DEFENSIVE TONE". WHY WOULD THEY THINK THAT? I NEVER DID ANYTHING WRONG". SHE REPLIED, "THEY SAID IT WAS THE VIBE THEY GOT FROM YOU".

                    I SAT WITH THIS ISSUE FOR SEVERAL HOURS AND ALLOWED MYSELF TO MOVE THROUGH THE EMOTIONS OF FRUSTRATION AND ANGER. I WAS DEFENSIVE, WHAT I'D DONE TO MAKE THEM THINK THAT.

                                                                              👀

                 AFTER PROCESSING MY FEELINGS, I CHOSE TO SEEK A SPIRITUAL SOLUTION. I ASKED THE UNIVERSE TO SHOW ME MY ASSIGNMENT. THROUGH DEEP CONTEMPLATION AND AN HONEST INVENTORY OF MY BEHAVIOR, I LOOKED CLOSELY AT MY PART IN THE SITUATION. EVEN THOUGH I THOUGHT I'D DONE NOTHING "WRONG" I REMEMBER THAT OUR VIBES SPEAK LOUDER THAN OUR WORDS. I GOT REALLY HONEST ABOUT THE WAYS THAT I PERCEIVED MYSELF AS SPECIAL AND SEPARATE. I GOT HONEST ABOUT MY LACK OF HUMILITY. I CAME TO REALIZE HOW THIS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION WAS THE PERFECT ASSIGNMENT TO BRING ME TO MY KNEES AND SURRENDER TO HUMANITY ONCE AND FOR ALL. HUMBLY SURRENDERING WAS THE ONLY WAY I WAS GOING TO SEE THE SHADOW THAT NEEDED TO BE BROUGHT TO THE LIGHT.

                  I CALLED ON A MESSAGE FROM MY GREAT A COURSE IN MIRACLES TEACHER KENNETH WAPNICK. "WE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR ALL SITUATIONS THAT MAKE US THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE, BECAUSE WITHOUT THEM WE WOULD NOT KNOW THERE IS SOMETHING UNHEALED IN US".

                  I ALLOWED THE DISCOMFORT TO LEAD ME BACK TO MY TRUTH. THIS UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT HELPED ME COMMIT TO THE PATH OF HUMANITY. I COULD NO LONGER TRY TO DANCE BETWEEN SPIRITUAL HUMANITY AND MY WORLDLY EGO. IT WAS TIME TO SURRENDER IT ALL AND ACCEPT MY PURPOSE. TO BE LOVE AND SPREAD LOVE. WITHOUT HUMANITY I WOULD NEVER KNOW WHAT IT TRULY MEANT TO BE ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE.

                   NOW I DEVOTE EACH DAY TO HUMBLY SURRENDERING TO THE CARE OF THE UNIVERSE. IN  MY MORNING PRAYERS, I TURN OVER MY PERCEPTIONS OF MYSELF, I RELEASE MY NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS, AND I ALLOW THE UNIVERSE TO TAKE OVER. THIS DAILY DEVOTION KEEPS ME CONNECTED TO WHO I REALLY AM.

                    WALKING THE PATH OF HUMANITY DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU GIVE UP ON GREATNESS. INFACT, IT MEANS THAT YOU EMBRACE YOUR TRUE MAGNITUDE AND POWER - THE POWER THAT LIES IN YOUR DEVOTED CONNECTION TO LOVE.

                                                                             👀

                   TRULY ACCEPTING YOUR LOVE NATURE REQUIRES YOU TO RELINQUISH ALL THE STORIES AND PRETENSES YOU'VE CREATED ABOUT YOURSELF. IT'S CHALLENGING, BUT TRUST THAT EVEN A BRIEF MOMENT OF CONNNECTION IS ENOUGH. MANY FOLKS WHO BEGIN TO OPEN UP TO METAPHYSICAL TRUTHS GET SCARED ABOUT GIVING UP THE IDEAS OF THE WORLD AND CONNECTING TO LOVE. THAT FEELING IS NOT YOUR TRUTH, IT'S THE VOICE OF FEAR TRYING TO STAY ALIVE. YOUR FAITH IN FEAR WILL MAKE YOUR RESIST YOUR CONNECTION TO LOVE IN ORDER TO KEEP YOU IN THE PERCEPTION THAT YOU'RE SEPERATE FROM THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE. IT'S TERRIFYING TO LET GO OF THE BELIEFS YOU'VE HELD ON TO FOR YOUR LIFETIME. BUT YOUR HAPPINESS AND PEACE DEPEND ON RELEASING THOSE IDEAS. THIS BRINGS US BACK TO WHERE WE BEGAN, WITH OUR RESISTANCE TO LOVE. REMEMBER THAT FEAR WILL RESIST LOVE, ESPECIALLY WHEN LOVE BECOMES MORE PRESENT IN YOUR LIFE, ESPECIALLY WHEN LOVE BECOMES MORE PRESENT IN YOUR LIFE. SIMPLY BE AWARE OF YOUR FEARFUL RESISTANCE AND COMMIT TO WALKING THE HUMBLE PATH.

                    YOUR HUMAN EXPERIENCE IS PART OF YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY, SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WALK THROUGH LIFE EXPECTING TO LIVE IN DIVINE CONNECTION ALL THE TIME. AIM TO STRING TOGETHER MANY MOMENTS OF CONSCIOUSNESS TO ULTIMATELY REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE THE SPIRIT OF LOVE HAVING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE.

                 LET'S INVITE IN A MOMENT OF CONSCIOUSNESS NOW AND GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO ACCEPT YOUR MAGNITUDE. AS A GENTLE REMINDER OF HOW LIMITLESS YOU ARE, READ THIS PASSAGE FROM A COURSE IN MIRACLES.

                                                                            👀

                       TO USE THE POWER GOD HAS GIVEN  YOU AS HE

                       WOULD HAVE USED IT IS NATURAL. IT IS NOT ARROGANT

                      TO BE AS HE CREATED YOU, BUT IT IS ARRAGANT TO

                       LAY ASIDE THE POWER HE GAVE AND CHOOSE A LITTLE

                       SENSELESS WISH INSTEAD OF WHAT HE WILLS. THE GIFT

                      OF GOD TO YOU IS LIMITLESS. THERE IS NO CIRCUMSTANCE

                       WISH INSTEAD OF WHAT HE WILLS. THE GIFT OF GOD TO YOU

                       IS LIMITLESS. THERE IS NO CIRCUMSTANCE IT CANNOT ANSWER

                       AND NO PROBLEM WHICH IS NOT RESOLVED WITHIN ITS 

                       GRACIOUS LIGHT.

                                                                               👀

                      EACH DAY DO YOUR BEST TO STAY IN COMMUNICATION WITH THE UNIVERSE. SPEND YOUR TIME LEARNING TOWARD THE POTENTIAL POSITIVE OUTCOMES RATHER THAN ALL THAT YOU EXPECT CAN GO WRONG, TURN TO PRAYER WHEN YOU'RE IN DOUBT, AND MEDITATE TO DEEPEN YOUR CONNECTION. WHENEVER YOU FIND YOURSELF CAUGHT UP IN CONFLICT, CHOOSE TO SEEK CREATIVE SOLUTIONS. YOUR DEVOTION TO YOUR PRACTICE WILL KEEP YOU IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE UNIVERSE. YOUR LEVEL OF HAPPINESS AND PEACE WILL BE A DIRECT REFLECTION OF YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE.

                    DEVOTING YOUR DAYS  TO YOUR INNER LIFE WILL BRING YOU JOY. EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY STILL DEEPLY IDENTIFY AS A SEPARATE PERSON HAVING A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE, YOU CAN HOLD A SMALL PLACE IN YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS FOR THE TRUTH. THAT BELIEF IS ENOUGH TO KEEP YOU ON THE PATH.

                   REMEMBER THE WORDS OF DEEPAK CHOPRA, "DO WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO GET CLOSER TO CONSCIOUSNESS", STAY CONSISTENT WITH YOUR CONSCIOUS CONTACT TO THE UNIVERSE, AND YOU WILL BE SET FREE. IN CHAPTER 11 YOU'LL DEEPEN THAT CONNECTION THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF SURRENDER.

UNIVERSAL LESSON

 

                                                    YOU ARE THE UNIVERSE 

<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-2132216722897449"

                       THE WAY OF KNOWING YOUR TRUTH IS TO ALLOW THE VOICE OF LOVE TO ECHO THROUGH EVERY SINGLE THOUGHT YOU HAVE. EVEN WHEN YOU DETOUR INTO FEAR, WHICH YOU WILL DO ALL DAY LONG, COMMIT TO THE VOICE OF LOV THE MOMENT YOU WITNESS THAT YOU'VE CHOSEN WRONGLY. DON'T TOLERATE THE FEARFUL WANDERINGS OF YOUR MIND ANY LONGER. MAKE LOVE YOUR PRIORITY.

                   THINK ABOUT HOW DIFFERENT YOUR LIFE WOULD BE IF YOU WERE FULLY COMMITTED TO LOVE THOURGHOUT THE DAY. IMAGINE WAKING UP IN THE MORNING AND INSTEAD OF TURNING OF THE NEWS, OVERCAFFEINATING, AND CHECKING YOUR PHONE, YOU BEGAN THE DAY WITH A DEVOTION, A PRAYER, OR A MEDITATIVE MOMENT. MY TEACHER MARIANNE WILLIAMSON SAYS, " WHEN WE GIVE TIME TO A QUIETING EXPERIENCE, WE HAVE A DIFFERENT LIFE BECAUSE WE HAVE A DIFFERENT NERVOUS SYSTEM, TURNING IN TO THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE LOWERS OUR STRESS LEVELS, RESTORES OUR CELLS, AND REORGANIZES OUR ENERGY. CONSCIOUS CONTACT WITH LOVE INTERRUPTS THE PATERN OF FEAR AND RETURNS US TO OUR TRUE NATURE.

                     ALTHOUGH THIS BOOK MAY SEEM AS IF IT CONTAINS MANY LESSONS AND EXERCISES, THERE'S REALLY ONLY ONE: CHOOSE LOVE. EACH PRACTICE BRINGS YOU CLOSER TO IT. EACH PRAYER, MEDITATION, AND EXERCISE HELPS SHIFT YOUR FOCUS AWAY FROM PERCEIVING YOURSELF AS SEPERATE FROM THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE. THE COURSE TEACHES, "FEAR CAN NEVER ENTER IN A MIND THAT HAS ATTACHED ITSELF TO LOVE". EACH TIME YOU SHIFT YOUR FOCUS BACK TO LOVE, YOU RELEASE YOUR SENSE OF SEPERATION AND REALIGN.

                   WHEN YOU'RE IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE, PEACE CANNOT BE DISRUPTED. NO PERSON, SITUATION, OR CIRCUMSTANCE CAN TAKE AWAY YOUR PEACE OF MIND. THIS ISN'T AN EASY CONCEPT TO GRASP, BECAUSE WE BELIEVE SO DEEPLY IN FEAR AND SEPERATION. WE BELIEVE WE CAN BE HARMED, AND WE PROTECT OURSELVES AT ALL COSTS. AT THE LEVEL OF THE MIND, WE CAN NEVER BE HARMED BECAUSE IN ANY MOMENT WE CAN CHOOSE LOVE. THE MORE WE STAY COMMITTED OF LOVE, THE MORE WE WILL BELIEVE IN IT. I CAN SAY THIS WITH CONVICTION. I HAVE COMMITED MY LIFE TO UNLEARNING FEAR AND RELEASING MY SEPERATE PERCEPTIONS OF MYSELF.

                   EACH NEW DAYS OFFERS ME GREAT SPIRITUAL ASSIGNMENTS THAT, WHEN FACED WITH PRAYER AND DEVOTION, BRING ME CLOSER TO CONSCIOUSNESS. EVEN IN THIS MOMENT AS I WRITE THESE WORDS I'M REUBFORCING THAT CONNECTION.

                 WE ARE ALL CONNECTED IN THAT WE HAVE THE SAME  PROBLEM AND THE SAME SOLUTION. OUR PROBLEM IS THAT WE DETOURED INTO FEAR AND BELIEVED WE ARE SEPERATE AND UNSAFE IN THIS WORLD. WHILE WE MAY ALL HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WE ALSO HAVE THE SAME SOLUTION. THE SOLUTION LIES IN THE DECISION-MAKING PART OF OUR MIND THAT CHOOSES LOVE.

                    IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU ARE ON YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY - WHETHER YOU'RE A LONGTIME SPIRIT JUNKIE OR A FIRT-TIME READER-YOU CAN ACCEPT THIS TRUTH NOW, YOU ARE ONE WITH THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE. OUR SPIRITUAL PATH LEADS US TOWARD SPIRITUAL SIGHT. THIS IS WHEN WE BEGIN TO  RELINQUISH OUR FAITH IN OUR PERCEPTIONS OF THE WORLD TO SEE STRENGTH RATHER THAN WEAKNESS, ONENESS RATHER THAN SEPERATION, AND LOVE RATHER THAN FEAR.

                   AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS BOOK, THE VOICE OF LOVE WAS PROBABLY DISTANT AND HARD TO HEAR. BUT THE MORE YOU LEAN TOWARD LOVE, THE MORE YOU BEGIN TO SEE WITH SPIRITUAL SIGHT, LISTEN WITH THE VOICE OF LOVE, AND LIVE MORE JOYOUSLY AND FREE. THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO RELEASE YOUR PERCEPTION OF SEPERATENESS AND ACCEPT YOU ARE ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE. 

                   STRINGING TOGETHER THOSE MOMENTS OF TRUE CONNECTION IS HOW WE BEGIN TO SEE THE WORLD THROUGH THE LENS OF LOVE RATHER THAN THE LENS OF FEAR. EVEN WHEN SITUATIONS BAFFLE US, WE HAVE THE POWER TO QUICKLY RETURN OF LOVE. NOW IS THE TIME TO CRANK UP THE VOLUMNE ON YOUR TRUTH AND TURN DOWN THE VOLUMNE ON THE VOICE OF FEAR AND SEPERATIONS. SO CHOOSE IT. FULLY SURRENDER TO YOUR SPIRITUAL NATURE, YOUR PURPOSE, PASSION, AND A DEEP CONNECTION TO THE UNIVERSE.

FAITH IN UNIVERSE

 

                                    PLACE YOUR FAITH IN THE UNIVERSE

                    REMEMBER, THE UNIVERSE WILL NEVER GIVE YOU ANYTHING THAT YOU CANNOT HANDLE. NO MATTER HOW DIFFICULT YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT MAY SEEM, YOU CAN FIND COMFORT IN THE FACT THAT THE UNIVERSE IS ALWAYS SUPPORTING WHAT IS OF THE HIGHEST GOOD. BY EMBRACING THE UNIVERSE AS YOUR SUPPORT SYSTEM, YOU'RE NO LONGER RELYING SOLELY ON YOUR OWN POWER TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS.

                 IT'S OKAY IF PLACING FAITH IN THE UNIVERSE IS NEW TO YOU. EVERY CHAPER WILL HELP DEEPEN YOUR FAITH AND STRENGTHEN YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSE. SO FOR TODAY, BEGIN YOUR NEW FAITHFUL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSE BY ASKING FOR HELP WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL PRAYER. 

                 THANK YOU, UNIVERSE FOR PRESENTING ME WITH

                 THIS DIVINE ASSIGNMENT FOR SPIRITUAL GROWTH AND 

                 HEALING. I AM READY AND WILLING TO SHOW UP FOR THIS

                 ASSIGNMENT WITH LOVE. I WELCOME YOUR SUPPORT.

                 SHOW ME WHERE TO GO, WHAT TO DO, AND WHAT TO SAY.

                 I TRUST I'M BEING GUIDED.

                            TAKE CARE OF YOUR SIDE OF THE STREET

              ONCE YOU'VE ACCEPTED YOUR ASSIGNMENT AND SURRENDERED IT TO THE UNIVERSE FOR HEALING, YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY FEEL LIGHTER. YOU'LL FEEL A SENSE OF RELEASE IN KNOWING THAT YOU'VE BEGUN THE PROCESS OF HEALING YOUR OLD PATTERNS. THE MORE YOU SURRENDER, THE MORE  FAITHFUL YOU'LL FEEL.

              WE'RE OFTEN AFRAID OF BEING VULNERABLE, BUT VUNERABILITY IS INCREDIBLY POWERFUL. IT CREATES GENUINE CONNECTION. WHEN YOU'RE READY TO CLEAN UP YOUR SIDE OF THE STREET, DON'T BE AFRAID TO BE VULNERABLE. THERE IS NOTHING SEXIER THAN YOUR AUTHENTIC TRUTH.

                                                    WELCOME HEALING

               THE FINAL STEP IS TO ALLOW THE HEALING TO OCCUR NATURALLY. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS HAVE THE WILLINGNESS TO ACCEPT  THE ASSIGNMENT, SHOW UP FOR IT, AND PRAY FOR IT TO BE HEALED. AS YOU CONTINUE ON WITH THE LESSONS IN THIS BOOK, YOU'LL DEEPEN YOUR FAITH IN THE UNIVERSE AND BE PRESENTED WITH NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR RELEASE. JUST STEP BACK AND LET THE UNIVERSE LEAD THE WAY. YOU WILL BE AMAZED BY THE MIRACLES THAT UNFOLD.

               THE UNIVERSE WILL DO FOR YOU WHAT YOU CANNOT DO FOR YOURSELF. ALL THE GREATEST HEALING I'VE EXPERIENCED IN MY LIFE HAS COME FROM AN EXPERIENCE THAT THE UNIVERSE PLACED IN FRONT OF ME AND NOT SOMETHING THAT I MADE HAPPEN. THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF A SPIRITUAL PATH. WHEN YOU SURRENDER AND ALLOW THE UNIVERSE TO DO HER THING, TRUE HEALING IS PRESENTED TO YOU. IN EVERY MOMENT THE UNIVERSE IS CONSPIRING TO BRING YOU TOWARD RIGHT-MINDED THINKING AND THE ENERGY OF LOVE. IT'S YOUR CHOICE TO LEAN TOWARD LOVE OR LEAN TOWARD FEAR. THIS ENTIRE CHAPTER IS AN EXERCISE IN LEARNING TOWARD LOVE SO THAT EVENTUALLY IT BECOMES AUTOMATIC. BEGIN NOW BY ACCEPTING YOUR ASSIGNMENT AND FOLLOWING THESE STEPS.

               THE PAYOFF TO FOLLOWING THIS PLAN IS THAT YOU WILL NO LONGER FEEL POWERLESS OVER YOUR LIFE'S CIRCUMSTANCES, AND YOU WILL STOP PLAYING THE ROLE OF VICTIM. YOUR SPIRITUAL PATH WILL GIVE YOU A SENSE OF POWER YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN BEFORE, THE POWER THAT LIES IN THE EXPERIENCE OF SURRENDER.

              SURRENDERING MAY SEEM SCARY TO YOU RIGHT NOW. THAT'S NORMAL, AND I WOULD FULLY EXPECT YOU RIGHT NOW. JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE AND BEGIN BY SURRENDERING TO THE FACT THAT YOU ARE WILLING TO SHOW UP FOR YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT. THAT'S THE PERFECT PLACE TO START. 

                WHEN LANCE SHOWED UP FOR HIS ASSIGNMENT, HE WAS ABLE TO BE VULNERABLE AND AUTHENTIC WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND. WHEN HE FOLLOWED THE STEPS, HE RELEASED THE HOLD HIS PAST FEAR HAD ON HIM AND HEALED HIS FALSE PERCEPTIONS. AND WHILE OVER TIME THEIR RELAIONSHIP EVENTUALLY ENDED ON MUTUAL TERMS, LANCE  WASN'T DISSAPPOINTED. FOR HE KNEW IN HIS HEART THAT THIS WOMAN HAD COME INTO HIS LIFE FOR A REASON. SHE WAS DIVINELY PLANTED AT THE EXACTLY TIME WHEN HE WAS READY TO SHOW UP FOR HIS UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT. EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T STAY TOGETHER, THE RELATIONSHIP WAS MIRACULOUS. THE MIRACLE WASN'T A LIFELONG PARTNERSHIP,  THE MIRACLE WAS THAT LANCE SHOWED UP FOR THE ASSIGNMENT.

                GREAT RELIEF IS AVAILABLE TO YOU TOO. BY SHOWING UP FOR YOUR ASSIGNMENT, YOU'LL DEEPEN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS AND STRENTHEN YOUR TRUST IN OTHERS. YOU'LL LEARN THAT IT'S SAFE TO BE VULNERABLE. YOU'LL NO LONGER FEEL THE NEED TO HIDE FROM YOUR PAST PAIN BECAUSE IT WILL NO LONGER HAVE A HOLD ON YOU.

                                          THE ASSIGNMENT IN THE PRESENT

                     FACING YOUR FEARS AND SHOWING UP FOR YOUR ASSIGNMENTS CAN BE TERRIFYING. THE INNER VOICE OF FEAR HAS LIKELY WAYS YOU'VE GROWN TO RELY ON FEAR TO KEEP YOURSELF, "SAFE". YOUR FEAR HAS MADE YOU FEEL SEPERATE FROM OTHERS AND DISCONNECTED FROM LOVE. THEREFORE, THIS PROCESS MAY BRING UP A LOT OF UNCOMFORTABLE EMOTIONS. WELCOME THESE EMOTIONS! SHOWING UP FULLY AND COMPLETELY IS NECESSARY FOR FULL HEALING. TAKE THE PLUNGE AND TRUST IN THIS PROCESS. 

                   I CAN TESTIFY THAT WHEN YOU SHOW UP FOR YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENTS, YOU WILL BE SET FREE. MY GREATEST EXPERIENCES OF HEALING, RECOVERY, AND SPIRITUAL GROWTH ARE ALL THE RESULT OF MY WILLINGNESS TO DO SO. IF YOU'RE NOT FEELING READY TO FACE YOUR ASSIGNMENT, THAT'S FINE. AT ANY POINT IN THIS CHAPTER, YOU CAN RETURN TO THIS CHAPTER AND FOLLOW THIS PATH. YOUR READINESS IS CRUTIAL TO CREATING THIS POWERFUL SHIFT.

                LET'S RECAP THE STEPS TO HEALING YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT.

                  * RECOGNIZE THE ASSIGNMENT AND CALL IT BY ITS NAME : FEAR.

 

                  * ACCEPT THAT YOU CANNOT AVOID THE ASSIGNMENT AND BE WILLING                         TO SHOW UP. YOUR READINESS WILL CLEAR THE PATH.

                  * FEEL THE FEELINGS THAT LIVE UNDERNEATH THE OLD PAIN.

                  * CALL ON COMPASSION TO CLEAR THE PATH.

                  * ASK THE UNIVERSE FOR HELP, AND RELY ON A POWER GREATER THAN                         YOU.

                 * TAKE CARE OF YOUR SIDE OF THE STREET, AND OWN YOUR PART IN THE                       SITUATION.

                * WELCOME HEALING AND EXPECT MIRACLES.

                     I HELP YOU UNDERSTAND HOW YOUR IMAGES, THOUGHTS, AND PERCEPTIONS AFFECT YOUR ENERGY, AND I OFFER GUIDANCE ON HOW TO STRENGTHEN YOUR ENERGETIC PRESENCE. STAY OPEN AND RECEPTIVE, AND ENJOY EVERY STEP OF THIS BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY WE ARE ON TOGETHER.

THE ENERGY BEHIND YOUR BELIEF

 

                                  PUT OUT WHAT YOU WANT TO RECEIVE 

                                

                                

                         OUR ENERGY TRANSMITS A MESSAGE, AND THAT MESSAGE WILL ALWAYS BE SUPPORTED. IF YOU'RE ALIGNED WITH A BELIEF SYSTEM OF FEAR, THEN YOUR EXPERIENCE WILL BE BACKED WITH FEAR. IF YOU RETRAIN YOURSELF TO CHOOSE LOVE, THEN YOU'LL EXPERIENCE LIFE THROUGH THE LENS OF LOVE. IT'S NOT THAT YOUR EXPERIENCES CHANGE BUT THAT YOUR EXPERIENCE OF YOUR EXPERIENCES CHANGE.

                   A POWERFUL EXAMPLE OF THIS IS A YOUNG WOMAN NAMED SAMANTHA, WHOM I'VE WORKED WITH FOR FIVE YEARS. SAMANTHA IS A KICK-ASS COPY EDITOR, AND SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING PEOPLE I'VE EVER EMPLOYED. NOT ONLY IS SHE FANTASTIC AT THE WORK SHE PRODUCES BUT SHE'S ALSO LOVELY TO COLLABORATE WITH. OVER THE YEARS WE'VE BECOME VERY CLOSE FRIENDS. THIS PAST YEAR I SENT SAMANTHA A TON OF WORK TO DO, AND SHE ALWAYS RETURNED HER ASSIGNMENTS RIGHT ON TIME.  SHE NEVER MISSED A BEAT. ODDLY, SAMANTHA, WOULD NEVER BILL ME FOR ALL HER WORK. MONTH AFTER MONTH I'D ASK HER TO SEND ME AN INVOICE. SHE'D EITHER IGNORE THE E-MAIL OR SAY, I'LL GET IT WHEN I'M LESS BUSY". THIS MADE ME UNCOMFORTABLE. I ENERGETICALLY FELT HER APATHY TOWARD GETTING PAID AND HER FEAR OF ACCEPTING ABUNDANCE. I ALSO WANTED TO HONOR HER GREAT WORK, AND SHE WAS BLOCKING THE FLOW OF ABUNDANCE. I KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT AND TRUSTED THAT THE UNIVERSE WAS GUIDING HER TO LEARN AN IMPORTANT LESSON.

                    THEN DECEMBER ROLLED AROUND, AND WE WERE NEARING THE NEW YEAR. I LOOKED AT MY ACCOUNTING AND REALIZED THAT I HADN'T PAID HER ONE CENT ALL YEAR LONG. I IMMEDIATELY E-MAILED HER AND SAID, "SISTER, PLEASE LET ME PAY YOU".

                  WITHIN MOMENTS SHE REPLIED, "I'M WORKING ON THE INVOICE FOR REAL THIS WEEK. THE UNIVERSE HIT ME OVER THE HEAD WITH THE IMPORTANCE OF GETTING PAID-SEVERAL CLIENTS HAVE BEEN TAKING THEIR SWEET, SWEET TIME PAYING ME (LIKE MONTHS AFTER I'VE SUBMITTED INVOICE), REQUIRING ALMOST AGGRESSIVE FOLLOW-UP. I TOOK IT AS A SIGN. I'LL SEND YOU AN INVOICE THIS WEEK.

                  I REPLIED, "YES, THAT IS A SIGN. IF YOU DON'T RECEIVE MONEY FROM CLIENTS WHO WANT TO PAY YOU, THEN YOU TELL THE UNIVERSE THAT YOU DON'T REALLY WANT GET PAID. THEN THE FLAKY CLIENTS PICK UP THE UNIVERSAL MEMO AND DON'T PAY YOU. IT'S TIME TO PUT OUT THE MESSAGE AND THE MANTRA, I GET PAID FOR MY AWESOME WORK. AND I GET PAID ON TIME".

                IN HER FINAL RESPONSE SHE SAID, "AMEN, GABBY. I REALLY HAD TO BE KNOCKED OVER THE HEAD TO GET THAT MESSAGE".

                SAMANTHA'S STORY REMINDS US THAT THE ENERGY WE PUT OUT IS WHAT WE WILL RECEIVE.

                TAKE A MOMEN TO REFLECT ON WHERE YOU FOCUS YOUR ENERGY. ARE YOU PROJECTING AN ATTITUDE OF APATHY, STRESS, JEALOUSY, OR FEAR? LOOKE CLOSELY AT HOW WHAT YOU FOCUS ON REFLECTS BACK TO YOU WHAT YOU RECEIVE.

               I HOPE THIS LESSON HELPS YOU BECOME CONSCIOUS OF THE MESSAGE YOU'RE SENDING THE UNIVERSE BEFORE THEY BECOME A PROBLEM. IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOUR CHANGED YOUR PATTERNS BEFORE THE UNIVERSE "KNOCKED YOU OVER THE HEAD" WITH THE LESSON. WHAT IF YOU SHIFTED YOUR ENERGY BEFORE THE MONEY WAS GONE OR BEFORE THE MARRIAGE WAS BROKEN OR BEFORE THE ADDICTION HAD BEATEN YOU DOWN? WHY NOT GET THERE SOONER? WHEN WE CHOOSE TO PERCEIVE THE WORLD WITH LOVE, WE CAN COMPLETE REORGANIZE OUR EXPERIENCE OF LIFE. ACCEPTING THIS TRUTH CAN SAVE YOU FROM YEARS OF TORTUNED DRAMA AND PLAIN.

                SO LET'S GE THERE NOW. DO YOU WANT TO LEARN THROUGH LOVE, OR DO YOU WANT TO LEARN THROUGH FEAR? IN THE NEXT LESSON, YOU'LL MAKE A COMMITMENT TO THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE WITH A PURPOSE STATEMENT.

               

                                         CREATE A PURPOSE STATMENT

                   THIS IS A STATEMENT TO THE UNIVERSE. WHENEVER YOU PUT PEN TO PAPER, YOU SIGN A SACRED CONTRACT. YOU SEND A POWERFUL MESSAGE TO THE UNIVERSE THAT YOU'RE WILLING TO SURRENDER YOUR FEAR AND THAT YOU'RE READ TO LET LOVE LEAD THE WAY. PUT IT ON THE PAGE, BABY! THIS IS A HUGE STEP IN SURRENDERING TO THE UNIVERSE. WE CANNOT STOP THE LEARNING PROCESS, BUT WE CAN ALIGN WITH THE ENERGY OF LOVE TO MAKE IT MUCH MORE FUN. YOUR PURPOSE IS TO LEARN THROUGH LOVE.

                   IF YOU'RE READY TO COMMIT TO LEARNING THROUGH LOVE, THEN STATE YOUR PURPOSE TO THE UNIVERSE. I AM READY TO LEARN THROUGH LOVE.

                  WHEN YOU MAKE THIS TYPE OF COMMITMENT TO THE UNIVERSE, IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE AWARE OF ANY SNEAKY, FEAR-BASED STORY THAT CAN HOOK YOU BACK IN. THIS IS THE STORY THAT PAIN HAS PURPOSE.WE LIVE IN A WORLD THAT SUPPORTS DRAMA, TERROR, SEPERATION, AND HARDSHIP. WE'VE BEEN GUIDED TO BELIEVE THAT WITHOUT PAIN WE HAVE NOT ACCOMPLISHED OR ACHIEVED. I'M HERE TO BUST THAT MYTH NOW. PAIN DOES NOT EQUAL PURPOSE. YOUR PURPOSE IS TO SURRENDER TO THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE SO YOU CAN LIVE A HAPPY LIFE. ACCEPT THE PURPOSE OF LOVE, AND YOUR LIFE WILL RADICALLY CHANGE THIS INSTANT.

                  USE YOUR NEW PURPOSE STATEMENT DAILY. WHEN YOU WAKE UP, SAY, I AM READY TO LEARN THROUGH LOVE. WHEN YOU COME ACROSS A DIFFICULT SITUATION OR A NEGATIVE THOUGHT, SIMPLY SAY, I AM READY TO LEARN THROUGH LOVE. MAKE THIS YOUR MANTRA.

                EACH MOMENT THAT YOU TRANSFORM IT TO LOVE. YOU'LL EXPERENCE THE HOLY INSTANT. KEEP PRACTICING THE HOLY INSTANT SO THAT YOUR PERCEPTIONS WILL BEGIN TO LEAN TOWARD LOVE NATURALLY. EVERY WORD WE SAY AND EVERY IMAGE WE SEE SYMBOLIZES EITHER LOVE OR FEAR. WHEN THE SYMBOLS WE CHOOSE ALL BEGIN TO VIBRATE WITH LOVE, THEN WE FEEL MUCH MORE SUPPORTED BY LIFE. TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE SYMBOLS YOU CHOOSE BY CLARIFYING WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE.

                                 YOU ARE THE DREAMER OF YOUR DREAM

 

                      YOU ARE THE DREAMER FO YOUR DREAM THAT IS YOUR LIFE. AT TIMES YOUR DREAM MAY FEEL LIKE A NIGHTMARE IF YOU'VE DISCONNECTED FROM THE LOVE OF THE UNIVERSE AND INSTEAD IDENTIFY WITH THE FEAR OF WORLD. WHE YOU RELY ON THE SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE OF THE UNIVERSE, YOU'LL BE LED OUT OF THE NIGHTMARE AND INTO A HAPPY DREAM. A DREAM OF NEW PERCEPTIONS THAT RESEMBLES THE TRUTH OF WHO YOU ARE LOVE.

                 FOR THIS SACRED MOMENT, OFFER YOURSELF THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO AN EXERCISE OF IMAGE MAKING. THE IMAGES YOU FOCUS ON ARE THE IMAGES THAT MAKE UP THE DREAM THAT IS YOUR LIFE. THAT'S WHY THIS EXERCISE IS CRUCIAL TO ACCEPTING THAT THE UNIVERSE HAS YOUR BACK.

                                                                        👀👀👀

FACE THE FEAR AND RUN

 

                                               ACCEPT THE SITUATION

                         BELOW ARE THE STEPS I SHARED WITH LANCE. FOLLOW THEM TO BEGIN THE PROCESS OF SHOWING UP FOR YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENTS.

                           STEP 1 : RECOGNIZE THE ASSIGNMENT AND CALL IT BY ITS NAME

                        THE FIRST STEP IS TO WITNESS THAT WHAT MAY SEEM TO BE A TERRIBLY UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION IS ACTUALLY A UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT. IN OTHER WORDS, WITNESS YOUR CRAZINESS AND CALL IT BY ITS NAME FEAR. THEN ACCEPT THAT THE FEAR HAS SHOWN UP IN THIS WAY AS A DIVINE ASSIGNMENT FOR HEALING AND GROWTH.

                         TAKE A DEEP, HONEST LOOK AT THE SITUATION THAT'S CAUSING YOU PAIN, AND IDENTIFY ALL THE WAYS THAT THE PERSON OR CIRCUMSTANCE IS TRIGGERING YOUR FEAR-BASED BELIEFS. HONOR YOURSELF FOR HAVING THE STRENGTH TO WITNESS THIS INSTEAD OF RUNNING FROM IT. BE PROUD OF YOURSELF FOR SEEING IT AS AN ASSIGNMENT.

                      TRUST THAT IF YOU WEREN'T READY TO ACCEPT THIS ASSIGNMENT, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE EVEN OPENED THIS BOOK! BY CHOOSING TO READ A BOOK LIKE THIS, YOU UNCONSCIOUSLY SIGNED A SACRED CONTRACT THAT SAID YOU'RE READY TO GO BIG, YOU'RE READY TO HEAL, AND YOU'RE READY TO BE FREE.

                                                                   STEP 2

                        ACCEPT THAT YOU CANNOT AVOID THE ASSIGNMENT

                      THE SECOND STEP IS ALL ABOUT ACCEPTING THAT YOU CAN'T AVOIDE THE ASSIGNMENT - YOU CAN ONLY POSTPONE IT. IF YOU DON'T CHOOSE TO ACCEPT THE ASSIGNMENT TODAY, IT WILL CONTINUE TO PRESENT ITSELF IN NEW RELATIONSHIP AND EXPERIENCES. IF YOU DON'T SHOW UP FOR IT, IT WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW UP FOR YOU. 

                    YOU HAVE TWO CHOICES IN THIS SITUATION: THE FIRST CHOICE  IS THAT YOU CAN FOLLOW FEAR -F EVERYTHING AND RUN. SOMETIMES THAT MAY FEEL LIKE THE SAFEST OPTION. TRUST ME - IT'S NOT. RUNNING FROM FEAR IS LIKE RUNNING AROUND A TRACK. YOU'LL INEVITABLY WIND UP BACK IN THE SAME PLACE AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL YOU TRULY ACCEPT IT.

                                        STEP 3 : HONOR YOUR FEELINGS

                        SHOWING UP FOR THE UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT REQUIRES YOUR WILLINGNESS TO FEEL THE PAIN IT TRIGGERS SO YOU CAN HEAL FROM THE PAST. MANY FOLKS ON A SPIRITUAL PATH SKIP THIS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT STEP. IT'S EASY TO THROW AN AFFIRMATION ON TOP OF YOUR FEAR OR TRY TO WILL IT AWAY. BUT UNDERNEATH ALL OUR DIFFICULT EXPERIENCE ARE UNFELT ANGER, RESENTMENT, AND FEAR. 

                 THE PRACTICE OF HEALING LONG-HELD SUFFERING BEGINS THE MOMENT YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THE SUFFERING IS THERE. GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO WITNESS YOUR RAGE, YOUR ANGER, AND YOUR HIDDEN RESENTMENT . IN CHAPTER 2 WE REVISITED THE STORIES THAT YOU'VE BEEN PROJECTING INTO YOUR LIFE. NOW TAKE SOME TIME TO HONOR THE FEELINGS INTO YOUR LIFE. NOW TAKE SOME TIME TO HONOR THE FEELINGS THAT LIVE BELOW THOSE STORIES. UNDERNEATH ALL YOUR FEAR-BASED PROJECTION ARE DEEP, HIDDEN WOUNDS THAT YOU'VE BEEN IGNORING BECAUSE YOU'RE AFRAID OF FEELING THAT OLD PAIN. INSTEAD OF ALLOWING THE PAIN OF FEELINGS THAT OLD PAIN. INSTEAD OF ALLOWING THE PAIN TO BE PRESENT, YOU PROJECT IT INTO OTHER PEOPLE, YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES, EVEN YOUR PHYSICAL BODY. THE FEARFUL PART OF YOUR MIND WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO DISTRACT YOU FROM FEELING THIS PAIN - BECAUSE THE MOMENT YOU START TO FEEL IT IS THE MOMENT YOU START TO HEAL IT. WE CLING TO FEAR OUT OF HABIT. 

                  WE'RE CONVINCED THAT IT'S SAFER TO DENY OUR UNCOMFORTABLE FEELINGS. BUT WHAT WE REPRESS WILL PERSIST NO MATTER HOW GOOD WE GET AT AVOIDING IT. WHILE IT MAY SEEM TERRIFYING TO FACE OUR DEEPEST WOUNDS, THERE IS ALWAYS FREEDOM ON THE OTHER SIDE.

                    WHEN YOU BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN AND OPEN UP SPIRITUALLY, YOU MAY BECOME EVEN MORE AWARE OF THE WAYS YOU'VE BEEN RESISTING TRUE HEALING. YOU MAY SEE HOW YOUR ADDICTIVE PATTERNS HAVE MASKED YOUR FEELINGS OR HOW YOUR HIGH-STRUNG ENERGY MADE YOU MOVE SO FAST THAT YOU NEVER SLOWED DOWN LONG ENOUGH TO FEEL. THESE BEHAVIORS ARE AN UNCONSCIOUS FORM OF RESISTANCE.

                TRUE HEALING OCCURS WHEN YOU GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO FEEL WHATEVER FEELINGS LIVE BELOW THE TRIGGERS. RATHER THAN ENDING THE RELATIONSHIP, LEAVING THE JOB, OR OTHERWISE AVOIDING THE ASSIGNMENTS, SHOW UP FOR THEM FULLY THE COMPLETELY BY ALLOWING YOURSELF TO FEEL AT THE PAIN AND RAGE.

                WHEN YOU NOTICE THAT YOU'RE TRIGGERED BY YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT, BREATHE INTO THE PAIN. FEELING THE PAIN ALLOWS IT TO PASS THROUGH YOU, AND STRIPS AWAY ITS POWER. LETTING YOURSELF FEEL THE PAIN RELEASES YOU FROM FEARING IT. RATHER THAN ACTING OUT OR POURING ALL YOUR ENERGY INTO AVOIDING DISCOMFORT, YOU CAN JUST FEEL. AND WHEN YOU DO THAT, YOU CAN TRULY EMBRACE THE UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT AND HEAL THE PATTERN FOR GOOD.

                 IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT AS YOU GO DEEPER INTO THIS WORK, YOU MAY BEGIN TO UNCOVER FEELINGS OR MEMORIES THAT CAN BE DISORIETING. OFTEN TRAUMATIC MEMORIES OR SENSATIONS CAN COME TO THE SURFACE WHEN YOU DO DEEP FEELING WORK. BE MINDFUL OF THIS , AND IF ANY POINT YOU FEEL OVERWHELMED BY THESE FEELINGS, DONT' HESITATE YOU FEEL OVERWHELMED BY THESE FEELINGS, DON'T HESITATE TO SEEK THERAPEUTIC SUPPORT.

                IF YOU FEEL SAFE TO HONOR YOUR FEELINGS, THEN YOU CAN BEGIN WITH THIS SIMPLE MEDITATION. THE GUIDED MEDITATION AUDIO CAN BE FOUND HERE GABBYBERNSTEIN.COM/UNIVERSE. THE RESOURCES LIKE ALSO INCLUDES A LIST OF THERAPISTS. COACHES, AND SUPPORT GROUPS THAT CAN HELP YOU IF YOU NEED TO ADDRESS TRAUMA.

               SIT IN A SAFE AND COMFORTABLE SPACE WITH NO DISTRACTIONS, BREATHE IN AND IDENTIFY WHERE THE PAIN, ANGER, RESENTMENT, AND FEAR LIVE IN YOUR BODY. THEN PLACE YOUR HANDS INTO THIS AREA OF YOUR BODY, BRINGING ENERGY AND ATTENTION TO IT.''

                  BREATHE SLOWLY AND DEEPLY INTO THIS AREA OF YOUR BODY, ALLOWING YOURSELF TO FEEL THE PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL PAIN THAT DWELLS IN THAT PLACE.

               CONTINUE TO BRETHE DEEPLY INTO THE PAIN AND DISCOMFORT. BE LOVING AND GENTLE WITH YOURSELF AS YOU EXPLORE THE DEPTHS OF THESE FEELINGS.

               ON EVERY EXHALE RELEASE THE PAIN.

               AS YOU BREATHE DEEPER INTO THE DISCOMFORT, YOU'LL BEGIN TO FEEL  IT DISSIPATE. THE TENSION IN YOUR BODY WILL RELEASE, AND YOU'LL START TO RELAX.

              CONTINUE THIS PRACITCE AS LONG AS IT TAKES TO FEEL A SENSE OF                             RELIEF.

             AS SOON AS YOU EEL THE TENSION SUBSIDE, BREATHE IN DEEPLY AND EXHALE A SIGH OF RELIEF. CONTINUE THIS BREATH FOR ONE MINUTE.

            THEN TAKE A DEEP BRETH INTO THE PLACE IN YOUR BODY WHERE YOU WERE FEELING PAIN. HOLD YOUR BREATHE FOR A MOMENT WHILE YOU GENTLY PRESS YOUR HANDS INTO THAT PLACE. ENVISION A BALL OF GOLDEN LIGHT, POURING INTO THIS SPACE IN YOUR BODY. ON THE EXHALE RELEASE.

            TAKE ONE LAST DEEP BREATH IN AND RELEASE. 

             WHEN YOU'RE READY, OPEN YOUR EYES. 

              THIS MEDITATION CAN GIVE YOU A NEWFOUND SENSE OF FREEDOM AND WILL HELP YOU FACE YOUR UNIVERSAL ASSIGNMENT WITH EASE. PRACTICE IT DAILY, OR EVEN MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY, ALLOWING YOURSELF TO EMBRACE THE PLAIN AND DSCOMFORT. YOU MAY GET SO GREAT AT IT THAT YOU CAN SIMPLY FEEL YOUR FEELINGS IN STILLNESS FOR ONE TO TWO MINUTES AND FIND GREAT RELIEF FROM THE HIDDEN RAGE, ANGER, AND PAIN.
