The definition of Magnum opus according to the American Heritage dictionary is “the greatest single
work of an artist, writer, or composer.”What follows is a collection of
my art, poems, photos, writings and thoughts that I have compiled over the years.
I hope you enjoy the entire collection.Hopefully this will
make you feel good, help you see things more in perspective, make you think, and ultimately leave you with a feeling of happiness…enjoy.
THE FOLLOWING IS FOUND ON THE BEST SELLING BOOK OF ALL TIME.
Genesis 1
1.In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2.And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of
God moved upon the face of the waters.
3.And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4.And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5.And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the
first day.
6.And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the
waters.
7.And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which
were above the firmament: and it was so.
8.And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9.And God said, Let the waters under the Heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land
appear: and it was so.
10.And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw
that it was good.
11.And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit
after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12.And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit,
whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13.And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14.And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and
let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15.And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16.And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night:
he made the stars also.
17.And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18.And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that
it was good.
19.And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
20.And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may
fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21.And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly,
after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22.And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl
multiply in the earth.
23.And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24.And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing,
and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25.And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth
upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26.And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish
of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
27.So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28.And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue
it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon
the earth.
29.And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth,
and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30.And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the
earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31.And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning
were the sixth day.
Genesis 2
1.Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2.And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all
his work which he had made.
3.And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work
which God created and made.
4.These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord
God made the earth and the heavens,
. . . .a. . . .
O.K. so you’ve figured out that I did not write the Bible, but it’s a good place to start talking
about philosophy.I believe the Bible was set in earth as a guideline for the
human race to follow.The Bible speaks of the past, present and future.It was written in a way so that even the most basic humans are capable of understanding
it.
And such is the story of the heavens and the earth at their creation.The Bible is basic and to the point.Some people do not believe in evolution.They said evolution does not exist, God created everything.Yes God created everything through evolution. The Bible is an incredibly advanced book.
God did not explain to us how he created the universe in detail, because when the Bible was first written;
humans would not be able to grasp the concept.Even in the present, we have not
been able to explain how the universe was created.We are developing rapidly,
yet at the same time we are still very primitive.
As long as poverty, racism, wars, religious differences, and hatred abound.We will continue to be primitive and unable to understand the greatness of God.God is so great that he is God to the Universe and everything in it including humans.
I came across this about a year later after I wrote the above mentioned....this guy said the same thing, and he's a great
mind. Enjoy it!
God will be Chinese to Chinese people, and he will send Chinese prophets to them.To the Indian people he will be Indian, and will send Indian prophets to them.To Middle Eastern countries, European countries and everyone one else in the planet God will look like
them, and send prophets who look like them.Everyone needs to realize, that God
is everyone, and looks like everyone.That’s what I mean when I say that
we are still primitive and incapable of understanding the greatness of God.God
not only looks like us, but he also looks like every other being in the Universe.
With all those stars in the universe, and planets around those stars, I believe that there are more life
forms in the universe.The universe is so grand that we cannot be the only life
forms.
Although there are people who believe that we are the only life forms in the universe.This writing is not meant for those people.
So, if there are hundreds or millions of other life forms in the universe, which God created, we cannot
assume that God is going to appear as a White Anglo Saxon Protestant to all the life forms in the universe.No, God will appear to each life form as them.
In the Bible when Christ was teaching, every tribe thought that he was speaking in their language.Christ was speaking but each person heard it in their own language.
Now we are to the point where we should be able to understand that God not only speaks our own language,
but he also looks like every single individual in this Universe.That is the
greatness of God.
“The deep emotional conviction of the
presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God.”
-Albert Einstein
I don't know if you believe in God or not?God exists in our
world for a very important reason.If you believe in God as I do, you already
know about this.God brings peace, happiness and all that is good into your life.
We as humans need God.Everyone will let us down at one point
or another, but God will never let you down.God will always be there for you.God will never give you wrong advice, or give you misleading information.God is what we need to achieve and complete final happiness, contentment and fulfillment in our lives.
I have been at points in my life where I felt like everyone let me down.However I always had God there with me.You especially need God when you
are at your lowest or at your most trying times.God is always there and I must
repeat that, and that's why we cannot do without God.
There are many people who will try to explain the Bible to you from their point of view.I'm not trying to do this.The Bible is one of the simplest
books, and at the same time one of the most complicated books in the world.It
is better, if instead of me translating the bible and relaying my beliefs about what the Bible says; if you picked it up and
read it on your own.
The Bible speaks to us individually; it has different meanings to us all.We all understand it differently.As a result of this, many religions
arose.All the heads of the different religions are trying to convince you that
theirs is the right belief, and everyone else is wrong.What happens is that
three people can read the same page in the Bible and it will have different meanings for all three people.That’s because the Bible speaks to YOUindividually.We are in contact with the creator through energy.
I don't think it's important that we all agree on the same thing.What is important for us is to make God part of our everyday lives, communicate with God directly and come closer to
God.
One way to do this is by doing this exercise.Get a Bible,
preferably a King James Bible, it's easier to understand.We all have questions
and we all need guidance at times.You want to know how to reach your goals most
effectively or maybe you have questions you are trying to answer.
Think of a question that you want an answer to, concentrate and then open the Bible at random to one of
the beginning pages.It doesn't matter what page it is as long as it is somewhere
in the beginning.Read both pages of the section that you opened.Continue and open the Bible at the middle of the Bible at random once again; read both of the pages that
you opened it to.Finally do the same and open the Bible at some part of the
end; read those two pages.By the time you are done, if you've concentrated on
your question and looked for the answer you will have found the answer to your question in those six pages.It will work on any question and as many times as you try it, the result will be the same.The more you do it, the easier it becomes, and normally you can find the answer in the first try.
The Bible speaks to you individually.That is why it is imperative
that you make it part of your every day life.We all need some one who is part
of our every day life, who is supportive, will never let us down, will never misguide us and will always be there for us when
we are in need, and this my friends... is God.
What if there is no God?
As a teenager I went through that stage all teen-agers go through.They think that they are all knowing and can solve the problems of the universe.A thought came to me and I said, “What if there is no God!”Then
what?After pondering the thought for a month or so, I came to the conclusion
that if there is no God; then you would have to make a decision whether you choose to be good or evil.
It is funny how some people have a hard time accepting that there is a God.Yet accept that there are evil forces in the earth.Forget the evil forces,
there are evil people.I have met them, as well as you.They are all around.
Coming to this conclusion, a decision had to be made.If there
is no God; that would mean the responsibility would fall on YOU to choose.What
do you want to make of this world?Do you want to make this world a nice place
for future generations, or do you want to make this place a living hell?
Either way you have the power.You have the choice of what
you want this world to be.In this scenario YOU
are God and all the world and universe is depending on you, to choose what side you want to be in, good or evil.
Eventually I came to my final conclusion that there is a God.I
also came to the conclusion that my teenage thoughts were not that far off.We
do have a choice, as far as what we want to do. God gave us free will.God gave us a choice to follow him and do all that is good, or we can choose to be evil, we can create
positive energy, or we can create negative energy the choice is up to us.
The Network of Energy
The universe functions with one thing, the energy that surrounds us.Energy is everywhere.Every day our body and mind generate energy.
For example,
the human brain contains more than 100 billion neurons, which produce energy that is transferred from cell to cell.Atoms travel across
the universe through energy.Sound travels through energy.Light is energy.Everything in the universe is connected to
a network of energy.
Humans are made up of energy, and we communicate through energy.I’m sure you’ve heard people talk about “energy around you” “aura” “vibrations
around you”.All these things are energy; it is how we interact with the
universe, each other and God.
I am going to make an analogy of how a computer network is similar to a human network.We have super computers that are really advanced, and then we have some computers that can only process
words.They only have enough memory to be a word processor.Some computers have a lot of information stored in them, and some have little information stored on them.Humans are similar to these computers; each of us has stored information that is unique
to the individual.Like computers connected to a network, humans interact with
each other and with God through energy, in the larger network called the Universe.
Every time a thought is created, there is a release of energy into the brain that follows through into
action, just like the internet.Once you type the word and hit send on the keyboard,
it is in the internet, whether you sent it to the computer next to you, or across the globe.The same applies to thoughts or the creation of energy, as soon as we think that information is already in the universe;
God already received the information.Whether we follow our thoughts with actions
is a different story; however we do not have to act in order to send the energy we have created.This energy flows just as easy from you to another human as it does to God.
Sometimes we can be close to someone and know what they want, know what they think, or even say the same
words at the same time. Many married couples will feel what the other partner is feeling.Mothers know when there is something wrong with their children. Sometimes all it takes is for you to walk into a room
and before meeting a person you already do not like them, or vice versa before you meet them you already like them. All these
things are possible because of how energy is transferred in the atmosphere.
Have you ever scolded a child as you shake your hand at him or her pointing your index finger at them?Did you notice they do not like it?Have
you ever argued with someone and you point at them with your index finger and notice that they did not like it?Have you ever pointed your index finger at someone’s head as you are saying “I told you so”
and notice they do not like it?Why do people shake hands?Why do people wave the top of their palm to greet people as they are passing by?Why do Chinese people bow, instead of shaking hands?Why do
people hug?
Could it be because your fingers and your hands along with other points in your body are energy points
which are used to transfer energy?When you are scolding someone as you point
your finger, negative energy is being amplified directly, and it tends to be very annoying.Could it be that people shake hands to share their good will and transfer their good energy?Could it be that Chinese people bow so as not to transfer any negative energy?Could it be that when you hug someone you are transferring your good energy from one body to another, and
that is why it feels so good to hug?
“Energy, even like the Biblical grain of mustard-seed, will move
mountains.”
Hosea
Ballou
“Energy and persistence conquer all things.”
Benjamin Franklin
Energy in nature
Electro sensory is a bio-electrical system used by sharks to find their pray, they also use it to navigate
using the ocean’s magnetic fields (energy).Sharks are able to detect electrical
currents at short ranges, that their pray give out as they swim, due to all living things producing weak electrical signals
(energy). (For more on this)
Bees Navigate
by using the sun rays (energy), and they are also sensitive to the earth’s magnetic field.They are also very sensitive to polarized light when the sun is not visible. (For more on this)
Birds also
use the earth’s magnetic field as a source of guidance; they also use the sun and stars as secondary guides.
Dogs and horses sense fear.When we are afraid, our body produces
a chemical reaction and energy, which animals see, hear or smell through the release of energy; this can be in the form of
hormones an electrical release or both.
Bats can detect fruit flies up to 100 feet away through their system of echo, with sound and be able to
“see” the prey even though they are blind.Their auditory system
is more efficient than any radar that has been made by humans. (For more on this)
Just like in the animal kingdom, our universe functions on the same principle when it comes to the release
of energy.We can produce it, and our bodies also receive it.We have the power to affect nature, each other and our universe through the use of energy.
The Ripple Effect
Energy is like throwing a stone into a body of water.The
momentum of the stone hitting the water creates ripples that spread throughout the body of water.Energy created in our body or mind is no different, if it is positive it will create a positive affect,
if it is negative it will create a negative affect.
As the saying goes, what goes around comes around.Imagine
yourself walking around with a full body mirror in front of you, and every time someone yells at you, that energy that is
created, amplified and returned to the person that produced it.
Sometimes someone cuts you off in traffic, or they say something negative, or yell at you.All these forms of negative energy are released and eventually make contact with the person which
they are aimed at.That person receives the negative energy and then reacts to
it, by creating and amplifying either positive or negative energy.
As an example, if we have an angry person who is going around creating negative energy, through thoughts
and actions, spreading it to every person he sees.If he sees 20 people in a
day and the first person he meets he yells at, in turn that person walks away refusing to be infected with his negative energy.
The next person he meets, he yells at and the person amplifies and returns the negative energy three fold.The next person he meets and comes into conflict with, yells at him and creates and
amplifies the negative energy ten fold; or gets in a fight with him and so on till he has met the 20th person.
The first person he met walked away, refusing the negative energy and was not affected as much by him.However by being negative and meeting the other 19 people who returned the negative
energy back to him amplified, (this quickly adds up) by the end of the day this angry person or creator of negative energy
will end up exhausted, depressed or feeling ill; this is just one day, now imagine doing it every day.
Just as easy as we can produce negative energy, we have the choice of producing positive energy.Energy that can be used for good and that will have pleasant effects not only on you, but the person who
experiences it, or receives it and amplifies the positive energy and returns it to you.
Children are specifically susceptible to this.Children are
at their most perfect stage as a human in their first five years of life.This
is the time when they come in contact with their atmosphere and fortunately or unfortunately they also come in contact with
the people around them.
The people around these children have great power over them.Children
are like a sponge at that age, they absorb everything, especially energy good or bad.If someone verbally or physically abuses them, this bombardment of negative energy will have a lasting effect on their
life.The same goes for positive energy, if they receive love, protection and
praise, this too will have a long lasting effect; that not only affects them when they are young, but will last a life time.
As an exercise for the next week, put attention to the consequence that your words have on people.When you get mad and say something negative to the person who made you angry, how
does that person react?(By the way, that person did not make you angry.You made yourself angry.Nobody has the
power to make you do anything you do not want to do.You are the one who creates
your thoughts and your universe.)The same applies if you say something positive,
how does the person react?What are the consequences that followed?
If you said something negative did the person say something negative to you?Then you became angrier and say something worse to them? Did that person choose to ignore you and walked
away?
Negative energy tends to repel people, because it is an unpleasant effect, so people walk away to get away
from the negative energy their body is feeling.
On the other hand, did you say something nice, such as you look very nice today!What was the response?Did you continue talking with that
person?If you said, you look excellent! May I give you a hug?Wow! What a compliment! Not only did you release a positive energy, but you followed it up with an action,
a hug.How does that person react?
"Just as love is my weapon to open the hearts of men,
love is also my shield to repulse the arrows of hate and the spears of anger."

With this exercise, you will become aware of the affect that your thoughts and actions (carried out through
creating energy) have on people.You will become more aware of the power of your
body as a generator of energy.
Creating Energy
Energy is around you and it is in you.It is in what you say,
think and what surrounds you.It can be in the music that you listen to, the
movies you watch, what you drink, what you eat, your hobbies or your friends.You
are the one who decides if it is positive or negative energy that you want to surround yourself with.
You are responsible for all that happens in your life, because you are the one who controls the conception
of energy; your thoughts, your words and your actions affect the universe you create.It all starts with YOU.It is all within your power to change anything
in your life, your job or your world.
Once YOU create a thought, it turns to energy and you follow through with action.How large or how small do you want to create your universe?Nobody
else knows except you.Do you want flowers in your garden, or do you want coals
in your front yard?
Imagination and thought are the central forces that start our creation process.We can think that we are happy, or we can think that we are sad and it takes the same effort to create
either thought.
“If you constantly think of illness, you eventually become ill; if you believe
yourself to be beautiful, you become so.”
Shakti Gawain
“We are what we think.All that
we are arises with our thoughts.With our thoughts we create the world.”
Gautama Buddha
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.The mind is everything.What we think, we become.”
Gautama Buddha
“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”

makes it happen.”

“Imagination is more important than knowledge”
Albert Einstein
Once you realize that YOU are the source of the energy and the cause of your present situation; then you
can take action to make some positive changes.
Choosing
the path
Chasire Cat Syndrom
Description:
A medical eponym taken from Alice in Wonderland, it was first described by the British physician Eric
George Lapthorne Bywaters (born 1910) in 1968.
When Alice asked the Cheshire cat which road she should take, he asked her where she wanted to go.
"I really don’t know. I suppose it doesn’t really matter," she replied.
"Well, then I suppose it doesn’t matter what road you take," he aptly remarked.
A lot of times we overlook the obvious, happiness and purpose in our lives
are in front of us at all times. The first thing is to figure out which path we want to take in order to follow it. Once you
find your true path, happiness and purpose come with it; the problem is that most of the time, either we have not decided
which path to take or we are doing something that is not true to our nature, only to fail miserably every single time.
"Real success is finding your lifework in the work
that you love."

David McCullough
As an example let’s look at these beautiful ducks and fishes.The ducks do not wake up in the morning and say, let’s look at our busy schedule.What do we have to do today?No, the ducks wake up in the morning and
they do what ducks do, because they are ducks.Nature instilled in them the true
purpose and nature to their being.Humans are the same way, but due to our excessive
erroneous thinking, and sometimes surrounding ourselves with negative energy; we tend to get distracted from our true nature
and follow the wrong path many times.The same thing with the fish in this picture,
they do not plan what they want to be, they are fish, act like fish and do what fishes do.The same applies to all things in nature.
Be like the duck, do not think about what you are, you just are.What are you?
Are you a teacher?A healer?An artist?A writer? A poet? An attorney?
You have to ask yourself, what brings you the most happiness out of life? What
is that one thing in your life that you can do day in and day out and never become bored with it?Whatever that is, you have been doing it all your life, because that is what and who you are.In my case I have been drawing every since I can remember.I
have drawings that I did when I was 4 years old.I can remember my hobby when
I was 5.I would lie in the ground finding images in the clouds.
That is what I have been doing all my life, creating beauty through art.Time passes quickly, and every time I do not feel happy, I draw, I paint, I design, I create.I realize that I am an artist, some times I had to take jobs that would pay the bills, but in between I
am an artist, and every chance I get I am an artist.So you see, in a way I am
like the duck.
If the duck tried to be something else for a day, he would fail miserably because he tried to be a fish.
(He did it just because he needed the money) The next day he went back to being a duck and became happy.Some friends of the duck told him that he should be a swan (There is more money in that) and so he tired
being a swan for a few days.There was more money, but the duck felt miserable
because he was a fake so he went back to being a duck and became happy again.The
moral of that story is to be what you are supposed to be; “Yourself” you see in this life we are supposed to be
doing what is essential for our well being and happiness.We are supposed to
be whatever we are, that one thing that brings us happiness day in and day out. Not because it is easy, or because it is hard,
or because there is more money in it, but because that is what we are supposed to be.
Once you find yourself and your true purpose in life, submerge yourself in your true being. Wake up and
be yourself, 24 hours a day 7 days out of the week, 365 days out of the year, without changing; eat, breath, think, sleep
and surround yourself with positive energy that will radiate your true self.It
is not work, it is just YOU!It is your happiness and purpose in life, it is
what brings you and helps you create unlimited positive energy.
Blocking Energy With
Fear
Fear is a negative element that blocks the flow of positive energy.When you are on the road to find your true self, you will meet negative individuals and negative energy along the path
to happiness.We can get caught up on the negativity and spend countless hours
of our time arguing and then ourselves amplifying this negative energy, regardless of the form that it comes in.
You will meet a lot of people that will discourage you from your goals by telling you not to do that, there
is no money in that or you need a lot of money to do what you want to do.You
do not have the experience to do that, you do not have enough education. The
negative comments are endless, and they may come from many sources, friends, family or strangers.
Negative people or negative energy will often distract you from the positive path. Once you become distracted
little by little you start absorbing the negative energy and before you know it you start believe what they say.You might say "well, I know it is hard, I know it will take a lot of money, maybe I should do something
else until I save some money".You start absorbing the negativity that comes
through in form of fear, lies or jealousy and before you know it you are following the wrong path.
"Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish
something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time
to the best possible use"
- Earl Nightingale
Nothing in this world is hard, regardless of what it is.Weather
you are building a product or following a career, it is the same.You start at
the foundation taking small steps one at a time, focusing on the small positive accomplishments along the way; never taking
the eye off of the goal and before you know it you will have it.Whatever your
mind desires can be accomplished.
The trick is to surround yourself with positive energy & people and let go of negativity, or avoid
it as much as possible.
If someone yells at you, say have a good day back to them.If
some one cuts you off in traffic, slow down and give them some room.If someone
wants to argue with you reject the argument and realize that it is not you with the problem, but the other person.Every chance you get instead of becoming involved with the negative energy, replace it with positive energy.
You will be surprised how many hours, days and in some cases years; are spent of our precious limited time
getting caught up with stupidity, fear and negative energy.
Never
give in to temptation or negativity and become satisfied with what you have, because you are in a comfort zone, even if it
is difficult. Becoming complacent at the cost of surrounding yourself with the wrong energy for days or years is not worth
the price and time.
Life
is too short to be stuck in a negative state.Do not surround yourself with negative
entities, persons, comments, literature, images, music, movies, etc. Every minute
that we pass unhappy is a minute too many that we will never recapture. Never wait for something or someone to do it for you.You have to take the initiative and do it for yourself, and the time in NOW!

future; it is something you design for the present."

Controlling The Mind
One of the things I strongly believe in is meditation.Meditation
is about learning to control the mind.Not letting the mind control you.A lot of people go through life being controlled by the mind and by everyone else
for that fact.
As an exercise sit in a room, or a park or a quiet place just for you; sit up straight to align your energy
points, and breathe deeply.Close your eyes and for the next three minutes, think
of NOTHING!
If a thought comes to your mind, mentally tell yourself STOP! And go back to trying to think of nothing,
focusing only in your deep breathing.
Concentrate and become conscious of every breath that you are taking, nothing else.If thoughts of the things you have to do come in, block them and say STOP!
Go back to concentrating on thinking about absolutely nothing and concentrate on your breathing.What this does is to allow you to control your mind, and when we control the mind we control the energy
we produce.
After you master 3 minutes, move on to 5 and then 10.It might
not seem like it is a lot of time, but to some people getting to the 1 minute mark will be difficult.
Ultimately you will learn to control not only the mind, but also the decisions we make.You will learn to focus more accurately on your goals and ambitions.
Our body is the reactor of energy that is capable of producing an unlimited amount of positive energy.Do not wait till the future to put it to use.Do it NOW!
Making Changes
If you have a job that makes you miserable, remember you are in control, change it.If you are in a relationship that is making you miserable, you are in control, change it.Anything in your life that does not feel right, you can change.
Some people refuse to take the responsibility for their own actions, and blame everyone else for their
problems.They frown and complain about all the problems that they have and do
nothing about them, because it is someone else’s fault that they find themselves in the situation that they are in.
“Buddhism is rational and requires personal effort, stating
that by only one’s own efforts can Perfect Wisdom be realized. Each individual is responsible for his or her own emancipation
from anguish and suffering.”
All of the problems that we have are self created, and as easily as we create them, we can demolish them.By realizing that we are the source of the energy, we can take responsibility for
our actions and change anything we want.
I could write a list longer than 20 pages on excuses why people hang on to their belief that they are in
their present situation, whatever that might be, because of something that happened to them in the past.
“Pumbaa: It's
like my buddy Timon always says: you got to put your behind in your past. Timon: No, no no. Amateur. Sit down before you hurt yourself. It's "You got to put your past behind
you."
The
Lion King (1994)
There is no need to cling to things that happened in our past because there is nothing we can change.Equally some people live the present moment, based on dreams of what they are going
to do in the future, even though they never follow through on it.
The future is a result of our present and since the future does not exist, until we create it in the present.We should constantly strive to concentrate and live in the present moment.There is no time like the present.
Every decision you make, you make in the present.You have
the option of making a decision right now, not tomorrow, now as you are reading this.You are capable of making a decision in your mind that will affect you for the rest of your life, regardless of your
past. You have that option available an unlimited amount of times, as long as
you are living.
Love, Appreciation &
Time
Love is the ultimate source of positive energy.With love
we can change the world and everything in it.Love is the essence of God, and
the tool that we need to break down any negative barrier.
Love & appreciation together form a good bond of positive energy, where you are able to pass the flow
of both love and positive energy.
Too many times we do not stop to smell the roses, to play with our pets, or play with children.We do not take the time to enjoy the sunset or to enjoy a park in silence.
Most of all, we do not take the time to spread the love and positive energy to those that are close to
us; to give them a hug, or tell them how much they mean to us.We do not take
the time to tell them how much we appreciate them, and some times they are gone in the blink of an eye.
Never wait to tell someone you love them, you might not see them again.Our time is limited and there is no time like the present.Take a moment
to tell people who you love how much you love them and how much you appreciate them.
Remember that the most precious thing we have to give is time, time is the most valuable resource we have.Be careful on who you spend it on, or how you spend it.Every single second that passes is a second gone that we will not get back, that second that passed will
brings us closer to our final destination.
A Meditation
Prayer
The following
exercise of positive energy is meant for all of God’s children Buddhist, Christians, Muslims, Protestants, Catholics,
Jews and anybody else that believes in a higher power.We must all realize that
we are ALL brothers and sisters, in the eyes of our heavenly father & creator of the entire universe, not just the fragment
of matter we call earth.
We are all connected directly to one another and to our creator.Let us all join forces together in a flow of positive energy and meditate, in order to achieve peace in our own hearts, and make this a more beautiful world
in which to live in; through the love of God and the wave of positive
energy we can all create.
Take
a moment to clear your mind and relax your body. Contemplate the thought of positive energy filled with love, positive energy that
we will create as if today was our last day; Positive energy that we will amplify 1000 times over.
Sit up as
straight as possible to align your body, and allow the energy to flow properly.
