Make Happiness Your Goal

Why make happiness your goal and not some job, new relationship, or other material thing that you’ve been yearning for?
 
Because, when you make happiness your goal, you will easily accomplish what you desire because happiness is a natural state of mind, and it’s a positive force in the creation process. Happiness is a high mental frequency; it is a state of fulfillment and joy. Being happy multiplies what makes you happy, and all of your desires will be fulfilled through this appreciation of what you already have, rather than wanting more and more goods. “Wanting” insinuates that you “don’t have”, but you already do have all you can imagine to be yours. And this is the key, you have to imagine that you already have!
 
Ask yourself, “What makes me happy?”
 
At first, you might list material things: money, a new car, a new house, some exotic vacation, or expensive jewelry. But such possessions are elusive. They will not last forever, nor are they the source of true happiness.
 
Then there are the less tangible desires: You might want love and a loving relationship. Maybe you want more time to yourself. Or you desire greater status and respect. There are countless ways we attempt to make ourselves happy.
 
Remember that nothing or no one outside of yourself can make you experience pure happiness. Happiness comes from within, from your innermost blissful thought habits and convictions, your sense of self-worth, self-sufficiency, and from your self-love. It comes from your appreciation of self and your surroundings. It comes from your love for your loved ones and the love for other creatures, nature, God and the Universe.
 
Happiness should be a well-rounded sense of contentment and bliss. Some might call it Grace.
 
No doubt that you should have all the material things you want. They are here for you to enjoy, but don’t make them your prime focus. They are a natural outcome provided by your right inner mental attitude and will be added to your experience automatically as your sense improves.

Sharpen your Intuition

​Many times intuition is called the sixth sense, but it is also disregarded by many as a mystical power and some sceptics even call it a lucky guess. But intuition, in metaphysics, is more than that. When you are paying attention to your gut feeling you’d be surprised how often this seemingly bodily signal is right on track. This is because intuition taps directly into our inner powers, our subconscious minds.

Our instincts often hit us first on a visceral level, telling us what we need to know well before our awareness catches up. Our consciousness, awareness, is just a step behind, or slower, than our subconscious, where our intuition lives. That is because the subconscious is the direct connection to our higher self. It is the all-knowing storehouse of universal knowledge. It contains the past, the now, and even the future.

Can we trust intuition? It might help to know that we experience intuition all the time, because it acts like an automatic response to our thoughts. However, we are not paying close attention to this sensation, even though we sometimes experience physical responses, like becoming nervous or sweaty, developing an upset stomach, or headaches. Exhibiting these symptoms show us that we are acting against our intuition. “Oh, I knew better” I hear all the time, “But I did it anyway”.  “I should not have done that, my gut feeling told me to stop, but…”

Sometimes we override our intuitive gut-level reactions altogether, mostly for external reasons. We care what others think about us, we marry into situations that we perceive safe. We look to others for guidance and follow their lead. We listen to our perceptive senses, and believe them to be true, rather than questioning this so-called material life of ours. We haven’t grasp the truth that all is mental, all is Spirit and most of all that all is good.

​Is intuition fool proof? No, not at this stage of our unfoldment. Why? Because we constantly doubt ourselves and our decisions. We do not trust that all is good, all will work out perfectly, and we expect what we believe to be true, instead of Truth. But intuition does not waver, it does not lie, it does not change its story.
If intuition is the connection to the Almighty Power, our direct line to Spirit itself, how could it lie or change its story? It naturally would send true signals and by tuning into this communication tool of the universe we could tap into all there is to know, or what is necessary for this stage of our journey.

Where angels fly

4/15/2016

Have you ever thought of angels, not as some heavenly messengers totally out of reach for a mortal being, but as the embodiment of your own good and right thoughts?
 
When you think of angels as your own good and right thoughts, you will realize that you can substitute the word ‘angel’ with ‘my own right thought’ and see that it’s one and the same. Let me give you some examples. As they say ‘the proof is in the pudding’…
 
In some religions, angels, we are told, are messengers from God, coming down from the heavens. If we understand God correctly, and know that this God is the Universal All-Power, Intelligence, Wisdom, now and forever – then we, being his children, must also be part of this All-power. Having glimpsed at this Truth, we will now understand that our own right thought is part of, and stems from, this supremacy. So yes, angels, or our right thoughts, come from God or the Almighty.
 
New Thought, sometimes known as Higher Thought, promotes the ideas that "Infinite Intelligence" or "God" is everywhere. It also states that only Spirit is real and our Soul is divine. Additionally, divine thought (our angel-thought) is a force for good, sickness originates in the mind, and "right thinking" has a healing effect.
 
Our purpose in life is to make a difference with our words of encouragement, our deeds, and the application of our wisdom. We are angels using our ‘right and good thoughts’ to help others. We can think happy, positive thoughts and we can think thoughts that make us feel joyous, and we can apply those thoughts to the people around us. We can learn to think about all the good in the world, and focus on this good only. All of those right and good thoughts are infectious and will bring happiness to us and our loved ones, as well as to all humanity.
 
The next question would naturally follow: What is heaven?
 
Heaven is a harmonious state of mind, and of course this harmonious state produces good, right, calm, loving and charitable thoughts. So again, yes, the angels or right thoughts come from heaven, our harmonious state of mind. Those angel-thoughts protect and lead us, and help us through the rough times. Those uplifting thoughts give we hope and courage. We certainly can call on them anytime we need guidance, as they are within. Isn’t our right thought a God-sent message?
 
The concept of heavenly angels, being exceptional beings, coming down from the heavens to aid and protect us, has been all over the world in one way or another. Religious teachings calling the angels ‘messengers of God’ in some mysterious way are outdated. This surely is a material belief in a material world, and there is nothing mysterious about right thinking. However, our world is not material – it is mental.
 
The teachings about ‘angels’ need another look; let’s see it in a different light. We know that misinterpretation of the ancient writings in any religion is so common, that we constantly must be careful what we believe to be true. Let your heart guide you, but let true reason rule.
 
Everything in this Universe is mental, always has been and always will be. So the angels are spiritual visions, produced by our own sense perception as needed. To say it in a few simple words: look at this phenomenon and realize that the heavenly messenger is you for you, me for me, and from within – always.
 
Giving thanks to the blessings we have received and for the blessings that are coming our way today and every day; and saying ‘thank you’ to the Universe with sincere appreciation puts us instantly into a positive frame of mind. Gratefulness will catapult us to a higher frequency and will trigger loving thoughts naturally. Those loving thoughts are our true angels.

Sowing Seeds of Peace

When talking about peace I am not just speaking about world peace, I am speaking about the peace within. In order to contribute to the grand vision of world peace we have to find our individual inner harmony first.
 
We have to know the following primary facts: Life in itself is intelligent, and we, as part of this intelligence, are composed of this primal substance. We are complete within ourselves. However, we have allowed ‘reacting’ to outer circumstances rather than acting rightly about them, and therefore have lost this natural peaceful demeanor. The fight is not outside of us, it is within.
 
Most people confuse self-knowledge with knowledge. Humankind, and their egos, assume that being knowledgeable means to know yourself. But they only act from their ego-consciousness and do not know themselves at all.
 
The ego is a peace-disturber, a troublemaker. It wants more and more, it doesn’t stop or find satisfaction. The inherent and characteristic goal of unfoldment and growth, striving to expand, is fully misunderstood by the ego-mind, as it sees this task as an accumulation of material riches and status, worldly powers you might say. However, the spiritual mind knows that the unfoldment of self consists of the humble awakening of Truth within. We have to expand our minds beyond our five senses; to truly ‘sense’ is to go beyond your accustomed limited perception. Mind always seeks to know and to expand its awareness.
 
“In the last analysis, life is found to be nothing but sense”, is stated by one of the great metaphysicians William W. Walter in the early 1900’s. Life, boiled down, hidden behind the veil of all perception, leaves a purely mental essence. Truth is mental.
 
Your work is to observe this inner sensing that is going on at all times. Do you see yourself as the dynamic, powerful, yet peaceful Soul you are? Or do you see yourself as struggling, confused, and always in a hectic state? Where is your inner peace?
 
Once we have mastered this inner harmony we can start sowing the seeds to include our surroundings and in the end, once we have found this stillness and calm within, it will naturally and effortlessly contribute to a grander picture. It will spread easily, and flow with the natural current of the Universe. It will certainly contribute to a better life and manifest into world peace, as we are part of Collective Consciousness, which is connected to the All-mighty Universal Source.
