Emergence: A Revolutionary Path For Radical Life Change - with Derek Rydall

It's just an honor to do this deep dive with you into 'Loving Your Enemy, the True Path of Healing and Mastery'. We often think about this demand or command from the Bible, 'love your enemy', having to do with other people. It doesn't really have anything to do with people. But principally speaking, it refers to all that you judge bad or negative, in your body and your world. For instance, it refers to a quality or characteristic about a person that pushes your button: they're needy, they're greedy, they're selfish, they're a thief, etc. Ultimately, all of those qualities are in you. They're not out there. If they push your button in any way, shape, or form, they're all in you. They make you sad, mad, scared, angry, fearful, resentful, and defensive. It's all in you. You're not in the world; the world is in you. You're not in relationships; relationships are all in you. You're a field of consciousness that includes all of it. Your unique experience of it all is showing where you need to grow, showing you fragmented parts of your own psyche to embrace and integrate and fall in love with. The enemy is actually showing you where the evolution is trying to happen, where the next stage of possibility is trying to happen. To love your enemy means you get to be in love with all of you and everyone, regardless of the appearance or the condition. You get to be a transparency for reality and an instrument of greater destiny, of greater potential. This is the power of loving your enemy. At the end of the day, you'll begin to realize we're not really here to save the world. We're not here to save or improve a condition. We're here to serve the emerging possibility, the emerging vision. You don't merely want to get rid of the enemy, you want to discover what's trying to emerge, what's the treasure, what's the new possibility!

There are a few variations of this question, but they all have to do with doing what you know you need to do EVEN when you don't feel like doing it. The first fundamental principle we must begin to understand and embrace is that conditions do not determine who we are and how we show up. Secondly, many people seem to check in with their emotions before doing something. STOP! You don't need to check in with your emotions to decide if you're going to follow through on your commitments. You follow through on your commitments whether you "feel like it" or not. However, sheer willpower will only get you so far. Simply put; you need a plan.

And remember, self-help is shelf help – you have everything you need already! Stay inspired!

Life is alive, and it's purpose is to live, give, share, shine, circulate and to put itself on ever-greater display. If you're not saying yes to your yes and coming into integrity with that emerging vision and purpose of your life, then you're not fulfilling your reason for being here. You're like an extra piece in this Divine puzzle, and extra pieces get pushed to the side. I'm not saying this to scare you. I'm saying this because this call is about what it really takes to make it, to grow, to heal, to succeed, and to sustain. My commitment is to be an individual who knows you can handle the truth and who tells it to you like it is. To be full-on leaders of your life, full-on givers of your gifts, where your structures are strong, where you're wealthy, healthy, happy, in love, connected, and contributing citizens in the world, you need to able to see it the way it really is. You wouldn't be here if you weren't the answer to a call. Now you have to consciously cooperate with that call. You have to consciously collaborate, co-labor, with it. Then you'll need to open up and anchor yourself in a vision that's better than it is, in the Truth, and begin doing what it really takes to answer Life's call. Will you answer the call?

Greetings, my fellow Emergineers, it's great to bring you another very important topic, 'Always be Planting: How to Harvest Your Past and Seed Your future.' The first thing to understand is that you're always planting, and you're always reaping what you've planted in the past. Every thought, every word, and every action is a seed of your future moment, and every moment is the fruit of a past seed. So the thought, the word, the action, the seeds you're planting in this moment are the potential fruit of your future moments, and every now moment is the fruit of your past planting. There is no other element that enters into the equation. As you sow, so shall you reap. I don't reap what you've sown, and you don't reap what I've sown. As you begin to realize that, you can take full responsibility for this moment because this moment can't be more or less than what you've sown or planted before. This means that nobody else has ever or can ever determine the quality of this moment, the fruit in this moment, but you. The good news is no matter what harvest you find yourself with right now, whether it's a harvest of sweet fruit or sour and bitter fruit, or just a lot of weeds, that you can always begin to sow a whole new crop. You're never stuck with whatever's just there. You can absolutely begin sowing again. I invite you to identify one area of your life that may need a little cultivation. Does it need watering, weeding, feeding, or seeding? Subscribe to Podcast in iTunes, Stitcher, via email or Android HAVE YOU READ 'EMERGENCE: SEVEN STEPS FOR RADICAL LIFE CHANGE' BOOK YET?

Why Do Good Things Happen to Bad People (And Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People)? This is an age-old question, and it's answered in my latest podcast. It can be a crisis of faith when we start to look out and see what we might call 'negative', 'destructive', or 'greedy' types of people, and we wonder why they have so much more abundance than really 'decent', 'good-hearted' people. Or why are these decent, good-hearted people getting sick, and these somewhat greedy, materialist people are just doing great and flying around in their jets? There are some key distinctions to understand here. The first one is that what the law of life operates upon is consciousness, principle. What appears to be a good person and a good personality, in and of itself, is not what the law of life is operating upon. Here's a great way to look at it. If you don't understand the laws of conductivity, electrical principles, and you just take some live wires and grab hold of them, or you touch the wrong wires together, and they blow up, or they electrocute you or even kill you. Electricity is no respecter of persons. It doesn't care how nice of a person you are. If you don't understand the law and the principle of electricity it doesn't matter how good you are. You're going to have some problems. If you learn how to float you could be a really evil person, and you'll still float in the water. Think about that. If you know how to fly a plane and operate in alignment with the laws of aerodynamics, you can be a really bad person, and you'll still fly that plane. The plane will fly, because, at least in that area, you are in integrity with the principle. It's principle. It's not personal. Listen in to discover the other key distinction around this topic and for the full explanation and support.

We're doing a deep dive today around the topic 'The Fields Are Always Full: How to Transcend Seasons and Cycles and Experience More Abundance Now'. You've heard me use the analogy of the radio broadcast: Right now, right where you are, your favorite music is broadcasting. There's information, inspiration, and music broadcasting that if you were to suddenly hear, it would inspire you, and would change your mental, emotional, physical state. The only distance between you and the manifestation of the music is a distance in frequency. When the frequencies match, you have music. You have a manifestation. So that music is potentially in your life, but it's actually broadcasting at the frequency where it exists. Just like the music, the fields are white unto the harvest, the abundance is already here now. It's not here in potential. It's actually here - health, wealth, wholeness, harmony, joy, peace, love, the fullness of life, Heaven, Paradise, Nirvana - everything you could ever want, hope for, desire and need are already here actually! Not in potential, but actually... It's only potential in terms of your experience. Our call today is to no longer wait for the harvest to come, to no longer wait for the economy to change, or wait for our family, our friends to agree with or validate us. We will no longer wait until we think we're good enough or have enough, but take a stand today, in the middle of the field of our life and begin to know, affirm and live from the truth that we are surrounded by and are an expression of abundance! I invite you to make a commitment to yourself, to begin to show up, to take your basket and step into your "field" and harvest the good that's there. Start to show up as if you're really supported. With this commitment, how will you begin to show up differently in your life?

This is both a powerful principle and somewhat controversial because it doesn't always look like the Universe is rigged in our favor. When we say life is for us, we are tapping into the principle of oneness, and the truth that life is always working to express more of its wholeness, abundance, and perfection — always supporting its own fulfillment. This means it's all working for your highest and greatest good. As W. Clement Stone said, "We must become inverse paranoids, believing that all of life is conspiring for us." You are a unique infinite expression of life, and through and as you life gets to know itself as an individual being. The Universe is conspiring to completely unleash its potential as you, yet we don't experience it directly. We experience our relative perception, our belief about life, our thought about life or about a condition. But because all there really is is love, and life forever giving and supporting itself, even those conditions that we would call "bad" are working together for our good. This episode shows you how to live in alignment with this.. When you begin to embrace this principle, every problem becomes answered prayer. Every so-called negative condition becomes an evolutionary catalyst. You begin to ask evolutionary or emerging questions: "How does this support my growth and expansion? How is this making me stronger? How can I use this experience to become more awake, more aware, a purer, stronger instrument of life, of truth, of beauty, etc.?" When you don't understand this, you ask questions like "Why is this happening to me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with life? God, why have you forsaken me?" Those questions keep you hooked into a paradigm of duality and separation, believing life isn't for you, and that leads to more experiences that reflect that back to you. Listen to this new podcast and learn how this principle works, and how you can put it to work in your life TODAY.

Today we're talking about the topic, 'Play, Rest, Repeat: Embracing Ups and Downs'. This is about becoming more in alignment with the Divine Flow of your life, that natural emerging impulse that can order all of our steps with ease and grace. What could be possible if you only did what was your deepest, most authentic truth? How joyful and playful could life become if you let life live fully through you? It's about designing a way of life that is congruent with our highest vision of joy and inspiration, that allows you to both play and rest. Eventually, you get more anchored in the natural rhythm of your soul, where you become more creative and productive, but with less and less effort. This ultimately is what it means to live a life of grace, and that's the life I invite you into.

I'm going to say something that might seem controversial, but if you want results in your life you must understand this... No matter how much you beg or beseech God, God will not help you get what you're praying for. But when you understand this critical principle of life and change the way you connect with your divine nature, you will NEVER be without help again. Life isn't personal, it's principle. No matter how good a person you are, if you don't understand this principle, it will be as if there is no God and no real help in the universe. Listen to this podcast and watch as your whole concept of God, prayer and affirmations -- and life itself -- changes forever...and for the better! Like this episode? Please share it!

I'm shaking up things a little bit here. Today's topic may be the most controversial thing I've ever talked and taught about: 'Jesus Was Not His Name'. The real purpose of this particular talk is to try to clear away a lot of the dogma, doctrine, extremism, and the fundamentalism around the great philosophies and religions. I really want to open you up to become contemplative, a student of truth, who questions, even down to the words we use. Words have power. Stories have power. History has power. There's a particular interest I have in the teachings of Jesus and the Christian teachings because of the power in them, but also because of how profoundly misunderstood they are, and how profoundly corrupted they have become in terms of the real meaning, intention, purpose, and power. These cultural iconic elements of our history such as the teachings of Jesus or Buddha, etc. have tremendous power and influence over us. They are exerting influence on us until we become conscious of them. We can integrate them, or if we discover that it's not true or right for us, we can consciously reject them. But we don't want to reject them unconsciously without understanding them, and we don't want to lose the power of them and not integrate them because we don't understand them. Listen to this new podcast for the full explanation and learn how you can begin to understand and appreciate the deeper perennial teachings and put them to work in your life TODAY.

Forgiveness is such a loaded subject, partly because we don't really understand what forgiveness means, and that there are multiple levels of forgiveness. The most primary level is a sort of superiority; it's very much an ego-driven thing. At this level, you, to some extent, recognize that unforgiveness is unuseful; there's some level of recognizing that holding a grudge is painful and it's not helping you. The second level is when you're willing to no longer withhold from another individual. At stage, when you think about forgiving someone, there's some degree of either neutrality, or maybe even a degree of love, (or at least wanting the best for them) even though there may still be a little bit of a sting because you're still seeing them as having done you wrong. That's a very powerful step, but it's still not the truest meaning of forgiveness, however, it's very advantageous and preferable to the alternative. Here's something to understand: Forgiveness is primarily for you. If you are withholding love or blessings from somebody else, no matter what, you are actually blocking your own channel of flow. From the Emergence model we understand that whatever is missing is what I'm not giving. If I'm withholding love, gratitude, and joy from anyone or anything, at any time, that much love, gratitude, and joy cannot flow into my life.

Today's topic comes from this fundamental idea that, God, as we've been conditioned to know it (whether you believe in a God or not) is a power outside of us. We are unpacking these ideas, busting these myths, and letting go of old limited archaic concepts of God, life, and power, in order to come to a deeper and truer understanding of life principles. What I really want you to get is the fundamental understanding that life is not personal, it's principle. The nature of God is an isness. God is a principle and a presence. It's not something that's changing or something that evolves. On some level, this has entered into our culture and conditioning, into the way we see ourselves, life, and the way we see the universe (Again, whether you believe in a God or you believe in a universal power, universal laws, or you believe in good luck.) All of that is a part of this fundamental concept of our belief in God. Your belief or your concept of what God is absolutely has a major impact on how you experience life, how you live life, and to the level that which you get to express the full potential of life. The first and foremost thing we need to understand is that there is no God or no power out there, not in the North Pole, not on the North Star and not in the stars. All the power is within you.

The core reason Why Aren't Things Working Anymore is evolutionary… You've activated a larger life and something more is trying to emerge through you. You're being called to let go of those lesser tools, habits, and mindsets that are no longer congruent and begin to embrace a more refined way of living that's in integrity with the emerging vision. Maybe you've come to understand the Law of Emergence but you're still operating trying to attract, achieve, and make things happen. You're still operating in the old paradigm, using the old models and toolbox. It's like you've suddenly gotten a Ferrari, and you're still driving it like it's a Honda and not understanding that a much more fine-tuned instrument and requires a different way of handling. In order to keep evolving up levels, you have to let go of the predominant tool of the level before, even in some cases, things that worked. Where things are no longer working, one of the first things you want to look at is: What is the larger life trying to emerge through and as me? What is the larger paradigm or model of life? You can begin to step-by-step, methodically release those old paradigms and replace them with the thinking, feeling, walking and talking that is in integrity with the life you've been praying, affirming, visioning or having a deeper insight about.

What is the Path of True Abundance? Unconditional giving – it's the whole foundation, and ultimately, the core principle of Emergence. As the emergence work says, whatever is missing is what we're not giving. Whatever we're waiting for, we're waiting with. If you are really operating as if the whole kingdom of Heaven, as if all of the Universe was within you, and whatever was missing was what you are not giving, your life would look different, as would mine. We are the way the whole Universe has individualized itself; we are unique individualized expressions of all of the power, the presence and the love of God. (Whatever term you use, this is what it means to be the son of God. This is what it means to be the offspring of the Most High. This is what it means to be a radiant light, the light of the world, the lights of every man and woman.) Right where you are is the whole Universe, therefore, there is no God or power or anything separate from you, or outside of you, that's going to come to you, ever. Remember, you are not on your way to something. You're not on your way to Heaven or to God, to abundance, to wholeness, or to love. You're coming from the everything. Just as the sunbeam is not on its way to the sun, it is the sun expressing. It's on its way to expressing more of that light, bringing that light into all the seeming dark places, delivering its gifts. That's who you are – coming from God, from love, from abundance. You are that place where the whole Universe gets to put itself on display in a unique and unprecedented way. If all of that true, (and it is) what's the mechanism by which you express your infinite being? There is no mechanism that's going to bring it to you. There's only a mechanism that's going to allow it to come through you and as you, and that mechanism is giving, unconditional giving. Another word for that would be sharing, circulating, serving, expressing, radiating.

This is a very powerful and personal question that I'm sure many of you have had. I've certainly been asked it many times and have asked myself this many times… From the Emergence model and the perennial truth teachings, whatever is missing is what you're not giving. The whole of ultimate reality is in your soul and your consciousness. So if you are praying for something, trying to get, attract, achieve it or draw it to you, and using prayer either as a supplication and beseeching of something outside of you, you're already praying amiss, because true prayer is an activation. Prayer is an opening through and as which you get to express more of the infinitude that is within you. You're never praying for anything, you are praying from the thing itself. You touch reality. The core idea is that it's already here, and I've used the radio analogy a lot to help explain this… The music is already broadcasting right where you are, but it's not manifest until you tune your dial into the vibrational frequency of the station where the music is playing. When your vibration matches the vibration of the station, that station becomes manifests. It's a manifest-station. The music was already broadcasting. It wasn't in the future. It wasn't in the distance. It wasn't even potential. It was potential in terms of your experience, but it was actual in terms of the dimension in which that music was broadcasting that actuality became manifest when you came into integrity with it vibrationally. You must come into integrity; you must pray believing you already have in order to receive it. If you pray not believing you have it, it still gets activated, but you can't receive it yet until you believe you have it. As I've talked before, every sincere prayer, desire, and affirmation you've ever said, in that moment, that potential, seed of possibility, is activated. It's deposited, but now the work is that you must come into alignment with it. Listen to the podcast episode above for the full explanation and learn how you can put it to work in your life TODAY.

Stay Rooted as You Rise... This is the secret to unending growth, success, and abundance. From the analogy of a plant or a tree, think of a farmer who's harvesting fruit trees… The farmer cultivates the soil, plants the seed, waters, weeds, feeds and exposes it to the proper light. Eventually, the seed sprouts and becomes a tree, but all along the farmer continues to nourish its roots. Over time, it starts sprouting fruits, which the farmer harvests and enjoys, but he stays very much focused on the roots. Whereas the analogy to a lot of individuals, is we may spend time on the seed, the soil, and the roots for a period of time. When we start to get some level of success in our lives, whether it's that we're not in as much pain, or in as much resistance, or we start to feel a level of momentum, we tend to get caught up in the fruits, and stop tending to the roots. Our ego has been programmed to think that what's appearing is where the power, source, and substance is. It's great to enjoy and celebrate the fruits of your labors; your progress and momentum, but don't forget what got you there. The daily work of cultivating the soil of your soul, doing the inner work of coming into greater congruence and alignment with the vibration of your vision. Your inner work is the foundation of everything. It's about developing a way of life – it's about changing your ultimate character, which allows you to fulfill your ultimate destiny. It's about falling in love with the process and the practice, with prayer and meditation, visualization, affirmation, and nourishing yourself with high vibrational material as a way of life. Equally important, it's not so much stay rooted as you rise, but stay rooted even as you fall. Maybe you start experiencing a level of success or progress, but then things start to go downhill. That's the time to build those muscles, that inner soul stamina so that you become stronger and stronger in your capacity to know and feel the truth, and be the truth in the midst of any condition. That's where you become truly unstoppable. Listen to the podcast episode above for the full explanation and learn how you can put it to work in your life TODAY.

Why Can't You Get What You Don't Have? There's life and there's life experience, and life (which is a synonym for God, or love, truth, universal power, spirit, etc.) is all that there really is. Life is forever unfolding and expressing. It's giving of itself everywhere, maintaining and sustaining its own perfection eternally. You are a unique individualized expression of this infinite life. You and the truth of you is already a done deal. You've already made it. You've already arrived. You're already a success. Your life is already fulfilled. This is the fundamental truth of all being. We've been conditioned to believe that life is an outside-in game, that we are separate from life, from each other and from all the things we want. So much of how we've developed and conditioned our mind, emotions and our body to live in this world are based on beliefs and concepts that are contrary to the way life really operates. The mechanism by which you experience this infinite, eternal pattern of good, is by your own conscious awareness of it. In order to express something, you have to already have it. In order to have something in your life, you have to express it. You cannot experience what you're not willing to express. You cannot express what you don't consciously have, or as the Law of Circulation says, you cannot give what you don't have; you cannot keep what you don't give, and you cannot sustain what you don't receive. It's circulating, but it has to come from within you. Listen to the podcast episode above for the full explanation and learn how you can develop that inner consciousness of having in your life TODAY.

We hear the expression "I'm just going to go with the flow" a lot from heart-centered, spiritually-minded people, or even those who are just trying to have less stress in their life. In many cases, this is a stall tactic or an avoidance tactic. It's an egoic defense mechanism – what it really means is, "I'm stressed out", "I'm burned out", "I'm overwhelmed". Going with the flow is not always good on certain currents. If all you do is go with the flow, you'll get caught in the crosscurrents or go over a waterfall! You need intention and you need to row, too. What's moving many of us in many moments is a flow based on our shadows, wounds, coping mechanisms, defense mechanisms, and values conflicts. It's all the ways we've learned to get by, to survive, to get what we think we don't have and to not lose what we're afraid somebody is going to take away. There is a flow, a current of energy in our life. But just going with that flow is not going to take us where we want to go. Once you are more deeply rooted in the truth of your being, if you have a deep spiritual practice where you are meditating and praying and connecting to that source on a daily basis, then you will feel this flow begin to use you and move through you. Then, going with the flow will feel like you're letting go of resistance and letting go of fear and being willing to be used and taken down this river of life, even though these fear patterns may be telling you "Be careful, don't do it."

Especially in the self-help, self-improvement realm of things and even beyond that, we've come to really put a lot of stock in our beliefs. At a certain relative level, it's important to improve your beliefs and your thoughts. It's important to do the inner work, to take back control of your mind and reprogram the patterns and condition your mind. Step-by-step, you can uplevel your thoughts, your beliefs,and your emotional fuel, so that you are ultimately running on high-octane thinking, feeling and believing. Ultimately the goal is to move into greater expanded awareness, that pops you out of your stories and beliefs. That then expresses itself as what the world will call improved experiences and conditions. The difference is they're different in quality. When you pop out of your belief and touch reality, and it transmutes itself into better experience, you know that you didn't manifest that experience through your own mental thinking and believing. I invite you into this next level of beginning to contemplate, "Who am I beyond all of my stories, beyond all of my beliefs?"

It can be very challenging to know when to stay the course and when to change or to switch lanes. As I've often talked about, one of the most important things to do as a creator and entrepreneurial type is to pick a lane and to stay in that lane. If not, you typically try to juggle multiple things and play the field, and find that nothing ends up growing, and you don't gain any real momentum. I struggled and suffered from that for many years until I understood the power of picking a lane and sticking with it with total commitment, no matter what for a certain period of time. In order to succeed, one must develop the capability of sustained focus. One of the key distinctions that separate achievers from non-achievers is that the non-achievers stop when things get hard, when they get bored, or when the results aren't forthcoming; whereas, the achievers stay the course until they reach the finish line, no matter how hard it is. This will require you to break down those walls of conditioning and cross the thresholds. You have to be willing to challenge and ultimately transmute limited beliefs and conditioning. This leads to a life of living on that emerging, evolutionary edge. One of the most important signs that you're meant to stay the course is your desire to. Ask yourself, "If I was guaranteed to succeed, to be well-received, brilliant and good at it, do I still want this?" Maybe you're feeling tired and burnt out and disappointed in dissolution, but when you sincerely ask, you'll feel that little kick, that little twinkling again. Now, when is it time to change directions? One way to know is when, in all sincerity, the thing you are going for is truly not what you want anymore – you've truly lost the desire. The other thing that may happen is a new direction arises organically, and it's often a progression to one side or the other of what you're already doing. Now, you have to be mindful, because if you're a creative entrepreneurial type, you can have all kinds of new ideas and possibilities arise. I'm not talking about Shiny Object Syndrome! I'm talking about you are steadfast and committed to a result, you're all in and you're working at it, like I was a story consultant or a screen writer, but your goal evolved into new tributaries. That's different than What about this? What about that? What about this? What about that? I invite you to bring a goal or desire into consideration and to take some kind of action, whether it's to make a deeper commitment to stay the course, or whether it's to reevaluate if it's time to change directions. You can also listen to an in-depth podcast on this subject, where we break it down and talk about how to put it into real-life practice TODAY. This will be a real game-changer!

Where are you REALLY? Have you ever been in a big shopping mall where you were trying to get to a particular store, but you didn't know where you were in relation to it — so you had no idea which direction to turn? Then you found one of those maps that showed the layout of the mall and had an X that said, "You are here' — and instantly you knew which way to go! You can't get where you want until you know where you are. This seems obvious on the surface, and when it comes to simple things like finding our way through a mall, it's fairly easy to figure out. But when it comes to finding our way to more important destination and accomplishing higher priorities, getting clear on where we are requires a different kind of map, and a deeper kind of work.

How do you deal with the haters? This is an issue that has always been part of human culture, but with the ability of so many people to comment anonymously online, our need to deal with criticism and the haters has been greatly magnified. There's a thing in the UK called 'Tall Poppy Syndrome,' which is based on the need to cut off the top of a poppy if it grows above the rest — to create uniformity. But it also applies to people — if someone gets too big and rises above the rest, there is an impulse to cut them down. When people start to outgrow the tribe, then members of the tribe seek to pull them back down so that they can feel safe and secure. The key thing to remember from the standpoint of Emergence is that everything, without exception, is there to serve you. You are creating your own Universe, and so everything, if you're willing to practice this way and to live in this framework, is there to serve your awakening, empowerment, and evolution — to make you an ever stronger instrument of what you're here to do, be and share.

The biggest challenges for many of us is either getting and keeping momentum, or having momentum, but that it's going in the opposite direction – downward momentum. For the latter, it's like having one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake. We have a downward pull, and then we're simultaneously having upward pull. If you're driving and pushing to make stuff happen in your life, it's because you've got momentum going in two directions. The worst thing that we try to do when we're pushing and pushing is to push more, or push harder, at least in same the way that we've been pushing. We must notice where is the momentum going in the opposite direction. This is one of the deeper esoteric meanings of the Biblical statement, "Where two or more are gathered in agreement, there I am in the midst of them." The two or more can certainly be two or more people as in a church, organization, spiritual organization, but it also represents the two or more aspects of ourselves – the conscious, the unconscious, the mental, emotional, physical. When all of those are in agreement, moving in the same direction, then you activate the larger pattern of your potential, and you have real momentum. At the most simplest level, how you get the Mighty Mo is to start moving… Move yourself emotionally, move yourself mentally, move yourself spiritually, and move yourself physically – you can always move no matter what, no matter who you are.

The Crisis of Incongruence - The Hidden Cause of Unhappiness This is such a powerful concept because, through Emergence principle, you know that life doesn't happen to you, it happens through you. All of life is pouring through and as you, or at least trying according to a Divine pattern. You don't experience life directly. You experience your perception of life, or experience life through your filters. Never is there a life outside, happening to you, although that is the illusion. There is a Divine pattern and idea, a real purpose and destiny. It's always seeking to make you congruent to the blueprint or the self-concept that you have accepted, and that is a part of and active in your consciousness. Like the principle of homeostasis, it's always trying to bring us back to a state of balance. This mechanism within you is always trying to make you congruent. For example, if you have a blueprint or self-concept that, "I'm not good with money" or, "I'm not good with money, money is hard, etc.", when it comes to money, even if you do all the right things to make money, it will be on the path out your doorway as fast as possible. Even if you're given money or win the lottery, as we've seen many times. Why? Because that same mechanism is working 24/7 to bring you back into congruence with that self-concept or blueprint. This is why that saying says, "He or she who is right in mind, they can do all the wrong things and it will turn out right; but, he or she who is wrong in mind, they can do all the right things, it will turn out wrong." Why? Whatever your self-concept or blueprint is, if you're trying to do a bunch of actions that aren't in integrity with it and you're not changing the blueprint, your life is going to come back into integrity with that. In addition, if you're doing all these things and maybe, even in the case where you have all kinds of what the world would say good things – you have money, you have family, you have opportunity – but you're still unhappy, there's something in your blueprint and self-concept that you're not pursuing or not fulfilling. Your work is to come into ever increasing and inner alignment to condition yourselves, so that you feel, believe and see yourself with a blueprint that matches your highest good and highest desire. The law of life operates automatically on that to bring your experience into congruence with it. You'll never be truly satisfied or fulfilled if your blueprint doesn't match, or isn't increasingly coming into alignment with, the grand blueprint. "That true joy and happiness is on that emerging edge of ever-expanding, ever-evolving increase, and progress." The first step is to look at your own inner self-concept, your own inner blueprint and see if it is in alignment with your highest and greatest desires or have you acquiesced to limiting conditioning. Are you merely trying to change the outer world while remaining the same? Are you just trying to lose weight or make money or win friends and influence others when internally you believe you're not worthy, capable, or unable? That's like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. The ship is going down no matter what you do externally. You need to plug the holes internally. You need to redesign your inner self-concept and blueprint. Finally, when you do that, you don't have to make it happen. You are making it welcome in the law of life. The law of mind operates upon that newly-enhanced blueprint and brings your life into integrity – into congruence with it.

Listen now: this Quantum Healing helps you pursue your true soul's goal ...and have "What Everyone Really Wants"

"If I could just get rid of this pain or limitation, if I could just get what I want, I would be happy and safe." Buddha taught that this type of thinking is the root of all suffering. We must get rid of craving and aversion in order to become free. But the very mechanism of seeking to get what we want or get rid of what we don't want is the primary driver for all human action. You look out at the throngs of people on the freeways, in the streets and the highways and byways of life, and that is their primary objective. In fact, really the only conscious objective is to get more of something or to get less of something, to get more good stuff, and to have less bad stuff. ...Or so it seems. Most of us have been conditioned into believing that what we really want and what we really need is some kind of change in our experience, in our condition. It's to have more money, or a better job (or a job at all), improved health, a relationship, a different relationship. But even when you know what you want, you have been conditioned to believe that you must purchase that state of consciousness through some external condition. (For example, "Yes, I know I want freedom, peace and joy, but I'll never have freedom, peace and joy until I have enough money...") This pattern is what will ultimately rob us of real freedom, real peace, real joy, and that's what Buddha, Jesus, and all the masters were teaching. Today's episode, "What Everyone Really Wants," shows you how to pursue your true soul's goal ...when you do, you'll no longer have to wait for any condition to change in order to have exactly what you desire.

As you've been discovering, the Source of all creation is within you. The Source of all life, law and power is in consciousness – and consciousness is in you. You are a unique expression of Divine consciousness. You also have come to understand that because you are one with it, like the light is one with the sun, you're not on your way to more of anything. Just like the sunbeam is not on its way to the sun, it is an emanation of light. It's coming from the sun. It's the way the sun expresses itself, and you are the way God expresses; the way life expresses. What does this have to do with going from resources to resourcefulness? Regardless of how much or little is appearing, in terms of outer resources around money or abundance, talents, abilities, relationships, or opportunities, the real key to having abundance is your resourcefulness. Your capacity to tap into this source of infinite supply and to be a channel and an instrument of that, determines how much resources you have. Your resourcefulness ultimately determines your level of resources. We have come to many points in history where we believed we were going to run out of valuable resources. For example, there was a time when the wild mustang horse was going seemingly extinct, and there were not nearly enough to meet the needs of the population. It was the end of times as we knew it, because this was our core mode of transportation and of getting around. Then somebody came along named Henry Ford, and created a car called the Mustang. Of course, that wasn't the first car he created, but he basically developed the combustion engine, that had the equivalent of all these horses under the hood. When that threshold was hit, where there appeared to be a lack of resources, we became innovative. Something was created that allowed us to get even more power with even less resource. In your own personal life the same metaphor applies. As you bump into those places and moments in your own timeline where you feel like you're out of options or you're out of resources, and the only way you could grow your life is to have more physical resources, it very well may be a reimagining of your existing resources that's required. You've probably heard the analogy: Everybody has the same amount of time… It's not that you need to have more time, it's how can you take the time you have and use it more effectively? It's not about just having more space. It's how can you take the space you have and use it more powerfully and effectively? It's not about just having more stuff. In fact, some of the greatest entrepreneurial and creative efforts have been because they had a seeming restriction of resources, time, money, or space, and as a result they had to dig deeper. They had to become more innovative and creative. They had reimagine, and out of that came a whole new way of doing something, and maybe even a whole new way of life for many others as a result. You're being asked to think differently. First and foremost, from a spiritual standpoint, to recognize that you want to be connected to the Source of all life, which is within you, because that's where everything unfolds. All the innovations, ideas, and breakthroughs come from somebody who has, on some level, tapped in beyond mere human thinkingness, beyond merely the human imagination, to what I call emergination, which is the imagination of the soul. It is not bound by precedent. It's not bound by conditions or circumstances. The imagination of the soul doesn't even look at the physical conditions to determine what's possible. It can create from seemingly nothing, and when you combine that with the imagination of the mind, where you can look at the existing resources, but start to think outside of the box, even create a whole new kind of box, or create something that doesn't even require a box, you've got the potential for real breakthroughs and magic.

Today's Quantum Prayer will help you activate, set, and deepen the teachings from "Where Are You Coming FROM: a Little-Known Secret of Success."

What if what you've learned about the direction to achieve wealth, health, harmony, happiness, and success is 180 degrees opposite to the truth? Remember when other kids would tease you and ask, 'Who do you think you are, God's gift to the world?" What if your answer was "yes?" What if everything that you desire ...is already filling you up and you are already overflowing with it? Listen to "Where Are You Coming FROM: a Little-Known Secret of Success" now. This paradigm-shifting message will rock your world. In a good way!

Aren't we here to save the world, or at least make it a better place? Actually, the answer is "no." The "world" that each of us perceives is really a collection of beliefs or agreements about what's possible and what's right. It's a set of values, norms, and mores that vary from country to country, culture to culture, and even from person to person. Trying to save or improve a set of beliefs is like trying to save a dream or hold on to an idea. As we know from the Emergence principle, however, there's always a bigger idea or pattern emerging, like when a seed is unfolding and emerging into a plant and ultimately into the grand idea, the grand pattern of a mighty tree. You are not here to save the seed, to protect it from cracking open and falling apart. You are here to serve the emerging paradigm, the new vision, the larger idea of yourself - and the world - that is currently emerging through you. And, when you move away from being a problem-solver, and become a vision holder instead, you tap into this infinite pattern of wholeness and perfection that's always there, but that you have not seen because you've been struggling to solve what appears to be "wrong" with the world, with your life, or with some aspect of your life, such as your work, your relationship, or your health. You're not here to just be a better acorn, just to be a better nut. You are here to sprout and, ultimately, to let the mighty oak of your being emerge. Listen to "Why You Can't Save the World ...And Why You Shouldn't" now to set down your problems and watch your grandest vision begin to emerge!

Whether you're on a spiritual path or not, it's very easy to get caught into magical thinking. It's easy to think life operates based on personality or emotion, or just based on good people. I'm not saying you shouldn't do good. Doing good is one component of being in harmony with the principle of life, but it's only one. If you're doing good deeds, but emotionally you feel unworthy, or mentally you have beliefs and patterns of lack, you're actually living out of alignment. It's important to understand this piece – it doesn't matter how much you wish for or how nice of a person you are – that's not enough. You must begin to release that wishbone, release the magical thinking, and learn how to stand stronger in the Principle of Truth. You can have an open heart, a heart as big as the world, the heart of God, but you need to have a soul that is strong, that has stamina, that is rooted in the principle of Truth. You want to begin to learn how to have a deeper understanding and embodiment of the principle in order to stand stronger in the principle. If you're not experiencing abundance, for example, do not merely wish, pray or hope for abundance, but learn to understand and apprentice under the principle of abundance. Allow your conversations be unwavering in speaking it, your actions to become undaunted in walking it – regardless of conditions. When you make knowing the truth, owning the truth, and embodying the truth your number one priority over your feelings, over your hopes, wishes and conditions, that's having a backbone instead of a wishbone. Remember, from the Emergence model, whatever you're waiting for, you're waiting with, and you're weighing it down. So you must get on the ultimate wait loss program and let go of all the wait, because it's already happening. Jesus, one of the great master teachers, taught this principle, "When you pray, pray believing that you already have that you may receive." That wasn't a metaphysical trick to attract it. It was a mystical truth – that you already have it. Elsewhere it says in the Bible, "To he who has, more will be given, and it will be multiplied, but to he who has not, even that which he has will be taken away." It's talking about a state of consciousness – the state of having. If any part of you is waiting for something to happen, you are creating a sense of lag time and separation that doesn't exist in truth, but that now must become part of your experience. Your job as a spiritual warrior, with a backbone and not a wishbone, is to stand in the truth, the vibration and the mindset, and even the action that "I already am. I already have. It's already done." Do not give yourself the luxury of putting your good in the future. You're not waiting for your miracle. A miracle is an instant demonstration of what's already true in reality and you can never experience it until you become fully present. This present moment is the only moment where all good exists. All good, all wealth, health, happiness, love, peace, joy, beauty, abundance, wisdom, genius – all of it only exists now. It doesn't exist in the past, which is just a memory. It doesn't exist in the future, which is just a fantasy. It doesn't even exist in the temporal present, which is imagination. It exists in the eternal now, fully, completely. It cannot be improved upon, it cannot be diminished – you must come into vibrational alignment and into integrity with it. The key is to understand is that whatever's missing is what you're not giving. If you want more to come into your life, you must let more life come out of you. If you want something different to come into your life, you must let something different come out of you. It's all within you. Release all futurizing. Release all waiting. Release all magical thinking. Take your stand in it, for it and as it, and then step by step engineer your mind, emotions, actions and environment to be in integrity with it. Then watch as you start to feel and live in the finished result even before it manifests, and discover what it really means to be free. This is what it means to have a backbone and not a wishbone, to have a heart of gold and a soul of steel. I invite you to this journey. I invite you to take one thing you're trying to create in your life and put it through this process. Let everybody and everything outside of you off the hook. Take full responsibility and take a stand for it today!

Today we're talking about the real cause of debt and how to eliminate it. This is, of course, a big issue with a lot of people, and if you've studied my Awakened Wealth work you already know the answer here, and if you haven't, you may be in for a surprise, because the real cause of debt is often not merely spending or spending too much, but as I teach in Awakened Wealth work and really the whole Emergence model, whatever's missing is what you're not giving. Life doesn't happen to you. It happens through you and as you. You're a generative being, and whatever shows up in your life has to first come out of you in some way, mentally, emotionally, energetically. It has to come out of you, or it literally cannot show up in your life. This is principle. Likewise, therefore whatever's not showing up is what you're not generating, and so fundamentally speaking debt is an expression of stagnation. It means the law of circulation is not really in operation. Essentially once you understand that all wealth is spiritual or invisible or energetic, and it's all within you, and therefore the only way to have more of it is to circulate more of it. The seven gifts give you the framework for how to circulate it, and it's giving out, giving up, giving in, giving away, giving thanks, giving to yourself, and forgiving. We'll talk just about forgiving. The gift forgiving means you're for giving, not for getting, not for taking. There's no withholding in forgiving, but in unforgiveness it's an energetic of withholding. It's right there in the word, of course, but it's right there also in the energetic. When you think someone has done you wrong, or you think you've done someone else wrong, what's the underlying message? You owe me, or I owe you. Right? You owe me an apology. You owe me those years back. You owe me that money. You owe me that job, whatever. Right? So there's you owe me, or I owe you. What do you have when you have a bunch of I owe yous? You have debt. It creates an energetic breakdown. There's no circulation happening in that area of your life. So for people that have debt they often have a story, if not many stories, of unforgiveness. There are one or more areas where there's no circulation. Listen now to episode 122 'The Real Cause of Debt and How to Eliminate it' of the Emergence Podcast.

Allow yourself to become aware of all the things it connects to - all the past issues or memories that it brings up for you, the emotions and the thoughts. Now just take a deep breath. As you do that, allow in your mind's eye to see images of love, power, and possibility. Perhaps you visualize your ideal vision, or your ideal vision in this area - feel into that as you let this prayer wash over you and through you.

How do you manifest more money or anything? First it's important to understand the true nature of manifestation. Manifesting, from the Emergence model – from the truth principle, is not about making something happen or appear that does not yet exist. To make something manifest to is to make that which is already happening, (but is invisible, intangible, or inaudible) tangible, audible – manifest. I like to use the analogy of the radio station to help explain this… Your favorite music is playing right now on some station, but it's not manifest until you tune your dial into the frequency where that music is broadcasting. When your dial matches the dial where the station is and where the broadcast is happening, that music becomes manifest. You didn't make it happen. You made it welcome. It wasn't in the future. It wasn't in the distance. The music was broadcasting right where you are, but you needed to come into vibrational alignment or attunement with it. The minute that alignment happened, that station became manifest, or as I like to say, you had a "manifest-station", a manifestation.

Why Life is Set Up to Fail You Some people think that life is largely against us, that life is the roll of the dice. As Einstein said, "The dice of God are always loaded." It means that life doesn't just happen, but life happens just. There is order. There is a certain pattern and lawfulness to life. Chaos theory says if you step back far enough from what appears to be random chaos, you will see a pattern. You will see order. The Universe is not chaotic. It is chaortic. What I really mean by 'why life is set up to fail you' is something I call the great betrayal, or the big betrayal. I talk about it in my Awakened Wealth work. It's best to tell you by means of a story… The basic story is how years ago when I was first on a spiritual path, and I had pulled out of society for the most part to go on this inward journey. I was doing all of the right things. I was doing so much deep inner work, and there was a lot of great benefits for it, a level of peace and joy and creativity that was emerging. At the same time, as that was emerging my bank balance was submerging. It was collapsing. It was going away, and eventually I found myself broke, literally living on a prayer, and sitting in my meditation chair in the middle of the room with a bill collector knocking at the back door and the landlord knocking at the front door, on the verge of being evicted. Having no human means to support myself anymore. I was, to be quite honest, pissed off at God. I had what I call my Gary Sinise moment. I don't think Forest Gump was even out at that point, but I know call it my Gary Sinise moment. Where he's in Forest Gump, and he's on the mast of the ship, and shaking his fist at the heavens and the storm and saying, "Bring it on, God." I didn't understand. How did all my efforts get me back to this place again where I was once again broke? I remember saying, "This stuff is either a bunch of BS, or there's something real here. One way or the other I'm not getting up from this chair until I know. I'm not going to go through this cycle again and again anymore. I'm done." I sat in that meditation chair, and I sat and sat. Daylight turned to dusk. The crickets come out for their nightly chorus, and I began to wrestle my demons and get pinned to the floor. At some point in the middle of the night this awareness broke through, and I don't know if it was a voice or a thought, but it was definitely Divine awareness of guidance. It said, essentially, "You made your savings account your God." I had basically had a savings account, a nest egg, and I was leaving that alone as a form of security, but then putting all my extra things or whatever I was doing beyond any money that was coming in, if I needed more money I was just putting it on credit cards. I had built up this credit card debt, but I wasn't touching the next egg. Little bit by little bit it dwindled until it was pretty much nothing. It said, "You made that savings account your God, your Source." Essentially, thou shalt have no other gods before me. I half expected to turn around and see Moses there holding a tablet up, looking strangely like Charlton Heston! As soon as that awareness broke through this peace came over me. It was like this pressure valve released, and all the stress drained away. The insight that came was that it's literally designed this way – that you don't put anything outside of you as your God, as your Source. When you make anything outside of you your Source of safety, supply, security, or support, it's designed to fail you. The reason is because when you make something outside of you your source what starts to happen? You start to give away your power to that thing or person you think is your Source.

The LIFT Practice Essentially, the basic premise of Emergence is everything you could ever need to be all you were created to be, do, contribute, create, etc., is already within you. Just like the oak tree is already in the acorn – there's a perfect pattern awaiting the right conditions, and when those conditions match the pattern within the seed, that inherent pattern of potential naturally emerges. The same thing is true for you. There's a perfect pattern of your destiny that is already planted in the soil of your soul, and when the conditions are congruent with that pattern, it naturally emerges. Another way to think of it is your favorite music is broadcasting where you are right now, amongst a bunch of broadcast stations, but you can't hear or experience the music. The music is not yet manifest, even though it's fully present and broadcasting. It's not manifest until you tune the dial of your radio so that your frequency matches the frequency of that broadcast. When you do that, when the frequencies match, then that broadcast that was already playing becomes manifest. You have found your manifest-station. In the process of Emergence, the first step is to identify the seed that's seeking to emerge in your life. Otherwise known as the vision, whether it's in some area of your life, or your life in general. What is the vision that's trying to emerge in your life? There are clues for that all around you! The LIFT practice stands for Living In the Feeling Tone, and this is part of the Emergence process. This is a simple method used to help engineer or design a way of life that is congruent to that of your grand vision. Listen to the in-depth podcast on the subject to get the full explanation, discover the clues to your vision, and learn how to put it into real-life practice TODAY. This will be a real game-changer. Also, learn how to create a life of unlimited abundance in my brand new Awakened Wealth Mastery 8-week program!

Quantum Healing: Getting Unstuck No Matter What Nowhere in the Universe is anything stuck. Energy is always moving – always flowing. Even when it's stuck, it's moving; it's just moving in a very constricted spot. No matter what situation you're in, the reason why you think you're stuck – the reason you feel stuck is that you have (A) an expectation of what the outcome should look like, (B) an expectation of what you should be like, of what you should be able to do, be, have, or create in that moment or under those circumstances. Because of your expectations or perception that something or someone outside of you has to change in order for things to happen in the way that you want, you feel stuck. We hear things like, "I don't have the money right now so I'm stuck", "I can't feel happy and joyful and grateful when I'm at a job that I dislike, so I'm stuck", etc… On it goes, where you're putting the locus of power outside of you – in people, places, things, and conditions, even putting it in your current mental-emotional patterns – as if the current energy level, emotional pattern, or mental pattern is power over you: "I can't write today because I'm uninspired", "I don't have the energy to exercise, so I'm stuck". At whatever point you feel stuck, there's always something you can do to get the energy flowing in the direction that you want to be going. Whether it's taking some action, having a conversation, acting regardless of how you feel, or doing some prayer or meditation around it, you can always do something. Begin to activate the qualities of what it is you want to do or who you want to be. You are a Divine power plant – and a power plant doesn't receive energy, it generates it. So, you don't wait for inspiration, you generate it. How? By acting like a person who is inspired. You want to act from the point of knowing that you are the source of it, and then it generates. Feeling stuck is an opportunity to discover just how powerful you are, how resourceful you are, and to develop your own wings so that you can fly into a much larger reality. Listen to the audio to receive quantum healing around getting unstuck in any area of your own life – no matter what. Like this episode? Please share it!

Are You a Do-Gooder or a Good Doer? This is a really important concept to contemplate and to consider in your life. In the most basic sense, so many people are out there trying to do good, but they're doing it from a consciousness of fear, of separation, or of projection. It's like an unhealed healer, or an angry activist. This is the key here. They've been wounded on some level early on in their life. That core wound really is a core initiation, and it really is pointing them in the direction of where they are meant to get stronger and ultimately make an impact in their life or in the greater world. For example, let's say you were abused as a child, and you grow up having such pain around any form of violence or abuse. Your reaction to it is anger, sadness, bitterness, contempt towards those that perpetrate it, and you have very little, to no, compassion for those that are so caught in their own darkness that they would perpetrate such violence. You're still the wounded little child that now just perhaps inhabits an adult body. In all kinds of ways, it's made you feel like a victim, and perhaps you've then put a mask on top of that, because, in many cases, the last thing an abused person wants to admit is that they're a victim. So you might put a mask on top of that to try to act independent and to be strong. You might have tried to compensate by building up these superstructures of your ego that made you actually more separate from others, more distant, more arrogant, elitist, self-righteous, any or all of these qualities. When we embrace these parts of us that we're projecting outside of us (the "bad capitalist", the "bad politician", the "bad lawyers", the "bad perpetrators" …or even just in our own family, "the bad parents", etc.), when we embrace those things within ourselves, now we have real wisdom. We have real power, and we are a healing agency as we move back out into the world. If we don't embrace those, we often are driven to try to stamp out or get rid of those things in the world, whether it's in our family, in our business, or in the larger global culture, and we become a do-gooder. We enact movements and strategies and practices or legislature, laws, and we wonder why we've been doing that over and over again and it doesn't change things. When you look at where real change starts to happen, real evolution, real growth, it's because someone somewhere caught this vision, and they became less focused on the problem and more focused on the vision. They stopped merely trying to save the world, and tdecided to start serving the emerging possibility, the emerging vision, and they worked on themselves. It's the difference between a Malcolm X before his transition, and a Martin Luther King, Jr. This is what you must do. You must look at that and notice where you're fighting and resisting – being do-gooders – and where you're actually creating more pain and more problems in your wake, if not for others, then for yourself. You want to take full responsibility for your emotions, your pain, and your projections, and recognize that real transformation is not about setting things right, but about seeing things rightly. It is the consciousness of wholeness that heals, and when you can see through the appearance of the victims and the victimizers to the truth, to the true principle – the true vision of possibility - then both victim and victimizer are healed and become servants of this higher possibility.

Co-Dependence, Interdependence, Independence: The Journey of Inner Freedom When we talk about and celebrate Independence Day in the United States, or in any country, it is a celebration of an outer change that led to people being free physically and materially, and that's a wonderful and beautiful thing. But what we're coming to understand in this work, is that real freedom can never be attained through changing some outer appearance. It is only attained when we become free of the bondage, slavery, oppression, and the repression of our own inner empire, of the ego reigning like a dictatorial leader. That's why there's plenty of people living in a "free" country that are in bondage. I remember listening to Nelson Mandala, who was in prison for 26 years, I believe, but he had become free long before that. (And because of that, he was able to set the country free.) Ultimately, you want to become "inner-dependent". This is where you're no longer leaning on the interactivity of the world, or looking to someone else. You're no longer manipulating and adjusting yourself. Also, no longer leaning even on your own human goodness or human capacities. It's important to know the different kinds of dependence, as these are the stages you typically move through to become inner-dependent: Letting go of co-dependence, coming into independence, growing through interdependence, and ultimately move to inner-dependence. There's co-dependence, where you are not able to feel okay about yourself unless you can make someone else feel okay about themselves. There's independence, where you're free within yourself, individually. You can be financially independent, independent from relationships that you might have been caught in, or independent from your family values and morals. There's interdependence, where you lean and depend on other people and things. You can recognize the value of duality to have other people and other things; humanly you are in an interdependent relationship with nature and with each other. Moving into inner-dependence is learning to lean on the Source beyond your own human capacities and capabilities. Do you truly depend on that presence within you, or are you leaning on what you know from yesterday? The Bible says, "You cannot live on yesterday's manna. If you try to hold onto yesterday's manna it rots in your hands… the manna falls freshly from Heaven every day" – this is symbolizing this knowledge, intelligence, substance. It's always pouring fresh in this moment. You want to go back to the well every day, and throughout the day – every time you're about to start something. Let go of all of your ideas of what "should be". Let go of your attachment to what was. Let go of all of your opinions, preferences, agendas, goals, and throw yourself wide open to the power, presence, the love of God – to the Divine impulse in this moment – which is always a revelation, and always new. I see in my mind the image of Niagara Falls, which is one of the wonders of the world. The water is gushing with just unimaginable power, velocity and volume, and yet it's never the same water! All of that is flowing fresh and new in every instant, inexhaustibly, but it's not coming from that spot called Niagara. That spot called Niagara is just an opening. It's actually coming from Lake Erie, this massive body of water that's flowing over the falls. If it was to try to hold onto that water and say, "This is me; this is mine. I depend on this. If I let this just flow over me, I'm going to run out and go dry!", it would end up cutting itself off from Lake Erie, and it would eventually run dry. Instead, it depends on Lake Erie, and it never runs dry, and it's one of the most powerful waterfalls around. The same is true with you. When you learn to have inner-dependence, not co-dependence, not interdependence, not even just human independence, but inner-dependence, (beyond your own thoughts, your own ideas, opinions and preferences) and lean back into that body of consciousness, it can begin to flow into your life like a mighty river rushing downhill without a boulder in sight, and it's always fresh, and always new. To support you in mastering this, listen to the in-depth podcast on the subject, where we break it down and put it into real-life practice TODAY. This will be a real game-changer. To Your Emergence!

As you begin to grow in this awareness of the Emergence principles and how life really operates, you start to discover that what you do in and of itself is not going to determine the outcomes you get. Ultimately, as the old metaphysical axiom says, to he or she who is right in mind they can do all the wrong things, and it will often still turn out right, but to he or she who is wrong in mind they can do all the right things, and it will still turn out wrong. We see that even as Einstein said, "You cannot solve a problem at the level of thinking that created it." We understand in metaphysics and quantum physics, that the frequency or the vibration that you're at is what actually determines the outcome. The good that you want, the answer, the solution, the opportunity, the abundance, etc. it's already here. Much like you are inundated with radio broadcasts right now, and in the midst of those broadcast somewhere your favorite music is playing, but it's not yet a manifest part of your experience. When you tune the dial of your frequency so that that receiver or frequency matches the frequency where that music is playing, that station becomes manifest. You have what I like to say a manifest-station. The music was already happening, but you had to make it welcome. You had to dial into that same frequency. The distance between you and your music is a distance in frequency. The same is true for your solutions. For whatever challenge you face, the solution is a reality that already exists, but it exists at a higher or different frequency than the frequency of the problem. Problem, when you understand it means emblem - it's a symbol. A problem or challenge is a symbol of a state of consciousness, a particular frequency, and you can never solve a problem, any more than you can solve a frequency. If you're turned into station K-LACK, and it's playing the blues all day, or it's gossiping and complaining and talking about all this negative stuff in the world, making you feel horrible, that's a problem. You can't solve that problem at that frequency. You can't solve that frequency. That's what's playing on that station. So, how do you solve it? You have to tune up the dial to station K-RICH, to a higher frequency. When you tune out of K-LACK into K-RICH, the problems you are experiencing on K-LACK they're no longer there! That particular music becomes unmanifest. It goes back into the invisible, inaudible state that it was to begin with, and the music that you really want to hear, that beat of abundance, that symphony of success, now becomes manifest. It becomes a part of your experience. So a problem cannot be solved. It exists. It's a frequency. Just like ice cannot be solved at the level of temperature where ice exists; 32 degrees Fahrenheit or below, you have ice. No matter what you do to get rid of that problem, you'll still have the problem if you're still living at 32 degrees. You can pour hot water on it, but what's going to happen? It's going to become more ice. You can chip it away. What's going to happen? Condensation will produce more ice. So how do you deal with it then? You must rise above that temperature. When you rise above 32 degrees, what happens to the ice? You don't solve the ice - the ice dissolves. When you tune to a higher frequency on the station you don't solve the problem or change the station of K-LACK. That's still broadcasting, but it dissolves out of your experience, and what manifests is that higher frequency you're now tuned into. That's also why Einstein said, "Arrows of hate have been shot in my direction many times, but they no longer can touch me or hurt me, because they come from a world I no longer inhabit."

Time, Health, Wealth, Work, and Relationship Freedom: The Path of Liberation Do you know that 99.99% of the world is run by the belief that if we could just change conditions, we could become safe, secure, significant and free? It's a 180 degrees opposite of what the great teachings taught. The fundamental teaching of Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Lao Tzu, Quan Yin, Shankara were not about improving your human experience in order to be free. They were exactly the opposite. As long as we're trying to manipulate the world to be happy, safe or significant, we are slaves, prisoners, ruled over by an empire of human beliefs in lack, limitation, and separation. Freedom won't just come to you. It has to be earned by right of consciousness. Jesus taught, don't try to save and improve your life. Let it go and seek a deeper connection. Buddha taught, do not engage in craving and aversion, which is basically the incessant need to try to get or get rid of it in order to be free or happy (in other words, manipulating appearances and conditions.) Buddha's whole teaching was based on an idea of the whole false self, that all suffering is based on this part of us that is seeking to manipulate conditions in order to be free. There's no freedom in thinking you have to get something or get rid of something, change something in order to be free. That's not freedom, that's enslavement. Freedom is an inside job. When you can be in a place of peace, regardless of conditions, you're really free. When we drop down a little bit deeper into these life structures – time, health, wealth, work, relationships – you can begin to see how this applies in these areas of your life. It's important to understand that all human experience is a relative projection of our limited perception of infinite perfection. Time is a relative expression of eternity. It's completely relative, bendable and flexible. That's why if you're with somebody you really love, an hour might feel like it went by in a minute. If you're doing something you really hate, a minute feels like an hour. As Einstein described in his theory of relativity, time is relative. It's just a construct. Eternity is what's real. So, if you're trying to base what's real and true on what's in time and space, you're already completely lost. You're as far away from as if truth didn't even exist because time and space are not real. There's a bigger idea that is infinite and eternal. It's trying to emerge as your life, as the world right now. That idea is what's real, not all the relative expressions of it that are sometimes very chaotic, very disturbing and very challenging. None of that is truth or substance. None of that is governed or maintained by Divine life, law or power which means it has no power at all. The only thing governed and maintained by life, law or power is what is true, what is real, what is spiritual – which means it is eternal and unchanging. You want to continuously seek a greater realization of the eternal unchanging truth of our being, or of any of these life structures -time, wealth, and health – to move into a greater state of well-being. You can completely renew and restore each of these structures of your life forever, to the extent that you awake into this truth, because your body, wealth, work, health, and relationships arespiritual, infinite, immortal, eternal ideas and activities that never diminish, that never run out. The more free you get in this truth, you'll be able to reveal an ever-increasing expansion and capacity in every area.

What You Really Came Here For (And What You Didn't) You came to this planet to use this dimension of duality and contrast to awaken more fully to who and what you are. You're here to paint your unique masterpiece of love, life, and light onto the canvas of time and space so that others can see it and be liberated and awakened to their own greatness, joy, and genius. Whether you call it painting on the canvas of life or performing your Divine drama on the stage of life, you came here because you have gifts to bring, and you have something to learn. That's where the very definition of human comes from, a Sanskrit term that means the dispenser of Divine gifts. As we talk about in the Emergence work, and really what all the great masters taught, everything is already within you – all the power, presence, life, and love of God, all that you could ever want. You're not really even in the world, the world is in you. You have everything, and so this world can't give you anything, except for a reflection of where you're living in consciousness and a place or an opportunity to grow and to give. There's a unique way that shows up for you. It might uniquely show up as a writer, teacher, dancer, singer, author, healer, doctor, plumber, parent, architect, politician, lawyer. Yes, even a politician and lawyer! Although not everybody is living the Divine purpose within their profession, we all came here in a very unique and creative way to realize the life and the light of our true being and to shine it in a unique, gifted way that helps others to awaken and to do the same. What didn't you come here for? You didn't come here to shop, to win an argument, to prove anything to anybody else, to win anything, to get a job even. You didn't come here to get anything, to get a bunch of money, or real estate, to defeat the enemy, to get approval, validation or love from anybody. That doesn't mean that you don't get a job, get into a relationship, don't get a new car, or you don't get some clothes. That's all beautiful and wonderful, but you're not here to get those things. You get into the relationship so that you can have an opportunity to awaken to who you really are and give more of the love within you. You get that job so that you have an opportunity to awaken to who you really are through the challenges and things, and to give of your giftedness. You get a new car so that you have the transportation in this dimension to travel to the places you need to give of your love and give of your gifts. You get a new home so that you can create a sanctuary and an environment where you can love each other and create, meditate, grow, play, sing, love and release more of your imprisoned splendor. You go into the lands of the world so you can cultivate, nourish and honor them. To create works of art and structures that support the awakening, loving , playing, sharing and the healing of our soul. No matter what it is, whether its relationship, health, wealth, work, or personal development, we've been conditioned to believe that all of these things we need to get is the end game. The end game is to get and acquire the perfect home and the perfect job and the amount of money you want, the right relationship, and the piece of land. That if you get all that you've won the game. No. You've only just begun it. That's not the end result – that's the preparation. Each one of those is like a plank in the platform from which now you can launch off from and give of your true life, your true gifts and your true purpose. There's some simple ways to test this: Can you take any of that stuff with you when you leave this planet? If you can't take any of it with you, does that make any sense that you would have come here to get it? Think about that. If you can't take the money, the houses, the cars, that person, then what can you take? You can take the love that you activate. You can take the joy and the bliss that you active from giving of your heart and your gifts, being of service. You can take the wisdom you've discovered and developed and activated. Not necessarily the human knowledge, all that you learned about how to sell and make great business deals that will have no real value in the next dimension, but what you learned in terms of integrity, loyalty, service, love and honor, that translates into any dimension. I invite you to contemplate this: once you leave this earthly place, will what you've done in this moment, what you're striving for or arguing for, will it matter to the people you leave behind, to the world you leave behind? As you begin to discover your ultimate purpose, some of the things you thought mattered, will fall away. Your values will begin to shift, and it won't be as important to do certain things. It won't be as important to acquire stuff you don't really need that aren't truly opening your heart and mind and allowing you to give your gifts. It doesn't mean you can't have a big screen TV. You can have a home theater, but you'll
