The profundity and far-reaching implications of the above quotes may cause you to pause, contemplate, and meditate on the messages these mystics impart.
You may find yourself questioning your understanding of what you thought you understood. Thoughts may arise like: Are the words of these enlightened ones to be taken literally; or are they simply metaphors to motivate us into action that may or may not yield the expected end? What is the difference between spirituality and religiosity? Do the terms, “The Presence” and “God” have different connotations? What do words like Spirit and Anthropomorphic infer?
The process of reconciling these thoughts to the point of clarity for yourself often leads one to a crossroad. What do you now do with your new-found knowledge or convictions? One thing for sure, you cannot unring the bell, or un-know what you know. On the other hand, old habits die hard.
Breaking agreements with the beliefs, values, associates, actions, language, etc., that do not support your vision, yet have become the default response to what you experience in the world, takes courage. It is not for the faint of heart. It requires a consistent mental practice of standing porter at the door of your mind. It means being in full charge and taking responsibility for your thoughts and actions. As a result of such a practice, you move into the high vibration of being an Intentional Being.
“Whenever a new spiritual idea is introduced into the mind, some negative belief is disturbed. ”
~ (TruthUnity.net) ~
It is to the degree that old ideas begin to break up in the mental realm, that their counterparts in the physical realm, having nothing to sustain them, begin to break up. This process may include the falling away of relationships, employment, food, entertainment, and whatever else that does not serve this Illumined consciousness. The Law is perfect, “as above, so below.” This process of chemicalization is sometimes described as the dark night of the soul, while actually, it is the fulfillment of the promise, “I will make all things new.” Oriah Mountain Dreamer challenges us “to see beauty even when it is not pretty.”
This Initiation ushers you into a higher vibration of life and living, attracting into your experience a greater awareness of fulfilling relationships, greater self-expression, perfect health, joy, and prosperity in everything you think, say, and do. You become a greater outlet through which Love, Peace, Harmony, Wisdom, Power, Beauty, Abundance, and Joy flow with ease and grace.
“Whatever you can do or dream, you can begin it. In boldness, there is genius, power, and magic.”

“I open myself to receive the light of wisdom and understanding, allowing it to guide me towards my highest potential.”
