One breath at a time.Find me daily at CurlyNikki.com and @CurlyNikkiLet this moment hold you like it once held me.This isn’t old, it’s eternal.What's the sound of one hand clapping?That's the sound of success.If you want more of it,you have to hear more of This.You have to hear the Silence beyond the world clapping,beyond the desire you hold of hearing the world clapping for you.You have to hear God clapping.He already is.He's always been clapping.You keep bowing. I Love YouI Am Younik "Don't sing the sadness anymore." - Rumi "The Divine Mother revealed to me in the Käli temple that it was She who had become everything. She showed me that everything was full of Consciousness. The Image was Consciousness, the altar was Consciousness, the water-vessels were Consciousness, the door-sill was Consciousness, the marble floor was Consciousness -all was Consciousness."found everything inside the room soaked, as it were, in Bliss-the Bliss of Satchidananda. I saw a wicked man in front of the Kāli temple; but in him also I saw the Power of the Divine Mother vibrating. "That was why I fed a cat with the food that was to be offered to the Divine Mother. I clearly perceived that the Divine Mother Herself had become everything-even the cat. The manager of the temple garden wrote to Mathur Babu saying that I was feeding the cat with the offering intended for the Divine Mother. But Mathur Babu had insight into the state of my mind. He wrote back to the manager: 'Let him do whatever he likes. You must not say anything to him." - Sri Ramakrishna "Everything is clapping today. Light, sound, motion, all movement." - Hafiz "Don't sing the sadness anymore. Call out that you have been given both the answer and an understanding of the question." - Hafiz "If I meet a wolf, he turns into a kind friend.If I am lowered into a well, it becomes a garden.A stony miser comes to me and starts givinghis wealth away. Don't offer me money.I have a teacher whose fragrance brings statues to life." -Hafiz"Jesus promised to send to his disciples the Comforter, the Holy Ghost, to speed them on their way to Self-realization. An advanced devotee can hear the sound of Aum in his body and can see its light in his spiritual eye. After he has become acquainted with these two limited manifestations, in the bodily sound and in his spiritual eye, then, by further spreading of his consciousness in Omnipresence, he sees his small spherical eye of light expand into a cosmic sphere whose luminosity conflagrates the whole universe. Similarly, as the devotee listens to Pranava, the holy sound of Aum, he forgets the restrictions of the human body and of space and can feel the Aum of his body vibrating into a perception of his cosmic body. He feels his consciousness vibrating everywhere with the ever expanding Aum sound. In ecstasy he suddenly sees his body as an atom or cell in the cosmic body.All aspiring yogis who would be performers of the inner holy rites of consuming restlessness and delusion in the fire of ecstasy, givers of unconditional devotion to God, and cultivators of true perception through Self-mastery, must begin their progress on the spiritual path by first chanting Aum, and then communing with Aum by hearing this sacred Word-symbol of God present right within the body-temple." - Yogananda

Without God, we are too poor to help the poor.
bonusWhat stage are you in right now? What stage is this in the story of you,in the story of your unfoldment?Can you kiss it, the way God is kissing you?Can you look at it, the way God sees it? You have to keep discriminating between the real and the unreal.This, that you find yourself in was not sent to hurt you.It was sent to heal you.It was sent to help 'you' find 'You'.Relax more. Soften, even more.That's how you kiss the stage.That's how you allow the stage to make room for the next.In this relaxation,in this step back, this step away from the one you thought you were,"right action arises by itself."*Miracles, find you. Hafiz says, "I don't want to step so quickly over this sacred place on God's body. That is right beneath your own foot."Slow down. Bow down. I Love YouI Am Younik Support the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings__________________________________________Today's Quotes: *Lao Tzu "The deeper meaning of "name" is a reference to Cosmic Vibration (the Word, Aum, Amen. God as Spirit has no circumscribing name.Whether one refers to the Absolute as God or Iehovah or Brahman or Allah, that does not express Him. God the Creator and Father of all vibrates through nature as the eternal life, and that life has the sound of the great Amen or Aum. That name most accurately defines God."Those who believe on his name" means those who commune with that Aum sound, the voice of God in the Holy Ghost vibration. When one hears that name of God, that Cosmic Vibration, he is on his way to becoming a son of God, for in that sound his consciousness touches the immanent Christ Consciousness, which will introduce him to God, Cosmic Consciousness." - Yogananda, The Yoga of Jesus"A man sees a thing in one way through reasoning and in an altogether different way when God Himself shows it to him."-Bhagawan Sri Ramakrishna"Discouragement is not from God." - St. Ignatius of Loyola"You don't criticize the moon for not shining the same each nightyou don'tlook up at it and sayyou're not trying hard enoughbecause the moon doesn't have to be full and brightevery night to be lovedand neither do you." -Ida Banks"Let the mess inside your head settle. breathe. it's going to be okay." -Shweta"A mind that is fast is sick. A mind that is slow is sound. A mind that is still is Divine." -Sri Meher Baba"I do notWant to step so quicklyOver this sacred place on God's bodyThat is right beneath yourOwn footAs IDance withPrecious lifeToday." - Hafiz (translated by Ladinski)"READ THE GOSPEL ATTENTIVELY AND YOU WILL SEE THAT JESUS SACRIFICED EVEN CHARITY FOR PRAYER. AND DO YOU KNOW WHY? TO TEACH US THAT, WITHOUT GOD, WE ARE TOO POOR TO HELP THE POOR.ST. TERESA OF CALCUTTA"There really was such a thing as sickness, then there would have to be a lot of fighting to become healed. But since sickness doesn't really exist, by giving this up, by surrendering this feeling, this thought that there is sickness or lack or limitation or anything else, the One Power, the One Perfection, the One God, the One Reality, the One Pure Awareness shines through, and takes over, and you are made Whole." - Robert Adams

But now I come to You; and these things I speak in the world so that they may have My joy made full in themselves. I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. For their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth." - John 17:11-19"The best sign of you progressing in your meditation is something which is very self-evident. First is the experience of great bliss; and the second is the actual experience of your being, not just a little thing but a throughout expansion of your being in all ways and in all forms. When we have a real experience of the conscious self, it needs no external evidence because it's a total certainty; it's as certain as you are sitting here now!" - @srim_official"Even if all the doors are closed...A secret path will be there for you that no one knows.You can't see it yet...But so many paradises are at the end of this path. -Shams Tabrizi

And I have found one way. The minute I can look at any person or condition and know that it is neither good nor evil, my thought stops, and my mind becomes quiet. That is the end of it because then there are no thoughts left for me to think about it: I do not think good of it and I do not think evil of it. All I know is that it is, and then I am back at the center of my being where all power is."-Joel S Goldsmith"Unless you give up the idea that the world is real, then your mind will always be after it."-Sri Ramana Maharshi"The kingdom of the father is spread out upon the earth but people don't see it."-The Gospel of Thomas“It seemed as if Maharaj-ji was about to answer, but instead his eyes closed and he sat there completely still, completely silent. It felt like he'd totally disappeared. In all the time I'd been with him, I'd only seen him sitting motionless like this a couple of times before. It was extraordinarily powerful, as if the whole universe had become silent. Then a tear came down his cheek. We were in awe. After a couple of minutes, his eyes half opened and, with great emotion, he quietly said, 'He lost himself in love, that's how he meditated. He was one with all beings. He loved everyone, even the people who crucified him. He never died. He is the atman [soul]. He lives in the hearts of all. He lost himself in love."-Krishna Das "God is in me, God is with me. God is for me."-@Sardinebread

Prayer is the reason why God has placed us on earth. - Pere Jacques"See the face that was my home.My loving says, I will let go of everything for that.My soul begins to keep rhythm, as if music were playing.Mv reason says, What do you call this cypress-energy that straightens what was bent double?All things change in this presence.Armenians and Turks no longer know which is which.Soul keeps unfolding inward.The body leaves the body.A wealth you cannot imagine flows through you." - Rumi, The Big Red Book"There is something here that is somehow a part of your calling, your mission in life. It's glorifying God in your unique way. It won't always be clear, but if you continue day after day to move according to His promptings, one day you'll look back, amazed at how God used you to be a light in this world.

"Thy kingdom come", that is, let all that is in us and in the world be in accord with your kingdom. "Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven", that is, in our need, decide as you see fit for our temporal and eternal life. If you say to me truly: "Thy will be done", which is the same as saying: "You take care of it", I will intervene with all my omnipotence, and I will resolve the most difficult situations.O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.Amen""GOD DID IT. That's MY STORY. God has done it." - @Angelittle

Fear is Only Possible When You're Living in the Suburbs of Love #GMweekends
bonusView your mind like traffic that has nothing to do with you. Traffic that's on the other side of the road. The kind of traffic that makes you say, 'whooo! Glad I'm not going that way!" Don't get involved with it. You're not stuck in it. You're simply watching it.Every time a thought approaches, ask yourself, 'to whom does this thought come?' And pause... listen. The answer is the silence. The mind stops and leaves you in the remembrance, in the recognition that you were never out of Love... you weren't living in the outskirts of the Kingdom. YOU ARE THE KINGDOM. You're Home, in the City of God. And as long as you're feeling Love inside of you, you'll be consciously aware of Love manifest all around you... as you.I Love you,[email protected] the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings_________________________________Today's Quotes: "Complaint is only possible when you're living in the suburbs of God." - Daniel Ladinsky, 'The Gift: Poems by Hafiz, The Great Sufi Master"To whom does this thought come?" - Ramana Maharshi"See what you're doing now. You're thinking. That spoils it. Learn to stay without thought. Even if for a few seconds. It's hard isn't it? This is the reason you have to ask yourself, 'To whom do these thoughts come?' It's only a modality to cause you to stop thinking."-Robert Adams"You cannot see anyone, the face of God is all that shines. The Soul of God looks out through all eyes." - Joel Goldsmith "None but ourselves can free our minds." -Bob Marley

Put Your Thoughts on Transparency Mode #GMweekend
bonusNever hold a thought, never drop the Thread.Watch and listen to your mind. Notice when it's doing what it does. Notice its judgements, criticisms, projections, conclusions. Don't react. Don't respond. Don't try to stop them. Just notice. And then notice what else is present. Listen to the Silence that the thoughts are coming and going in. Feel that Silence... Joy, Love... the Bliss of the Self. When you feel this Bliss, It puts the thoughts on transparency mode (like your noise canceling headphones). Now you're no longer hypnotized by thinking... It's not the only thing you can hear. Now you can also hear the Silence! You can feel the Thread. And It feels good.

Support the showToday's Quotes:Ram Dass' Roommate Story from 'Changing Lenses'"If you would like to meet your roommate, just try to sit inside yourself for a while in complete solitude and silence. You have the right; it’s your inner domain. But instead of finding silence, you’re going to listen to incessant chatter: “Why am I doing this? I have more important things to do. This is a waste of time. There’s nobody in here but me. What’s this all about?”Right on cue, there’s your roommate. You may have a clear intention to be quiet inside, but your roommate won’t cooperate. And it’s not just when you try to be quiet. It has something to say about everything you look at: “I like it. I don’t like it. This is good. That’s bad.” It just talks and talks. You don’t generally notice because you don’t step back from it. You’re so close that you don’t realize that you’re actually hypnotized into listening to it. Basically, you’re not alone in there. There are two distinct aspects of your inner being. The first is you, the awareness, the witness, the center of your willful intentions; and the other is that which you watch. The problem is, the part that you watch never shuts up. If you could get rid of that part, even for a moment, the peace and serenity would be the nicest vacation you’ve ever had."-Singer, Michael A.. The Untethered Soul (p. 17)

Mantra:"Where I am, is where I need to be."Alignment comes before action." - @SourceMessages God is saying- When I tell you to rest,it means to keep busy about life,but keep quiet inside,keep vigil inside...don't back talk, judge, doubt, narrate or try to figure out what I Am doing, what I did in the beginning.Don't try to get out in front of Me.Just listen for the next direction.For the next step.And you’ll begin to see that it is always to Love more.To feel Love again.Which means you’re (in) My will again.My Will for you is to be successful.And you are successful the moment you remember Love.

What troubles you and hurts you immensely are your reason, your thoughts and worry, and your desire at all costs to deal with what afflicts you.

Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.Amen""Chanting is an offering of the heart, a heart filled with feelings of humility, a desire to surrender, and a sincere service attitude." - Sacinanandnana Swami "The saints are not supermen, nor were they born perfect. When they recognizedGOD'S LOVE, they followed it and served others." - Pope Francis "In my life I have seen the most wonderful demonstrations of God's response to prayer. I urge you to pray not for little things, but for His presence. Only that prayer is worthwhile. If you are willing to sacrifice an hour or two of sleep for meditation every night, you will enter the kingdom of God. Don't watch the time. With deep sincerity pray, "Lord, I want You alone."- Paramahansa Yogananda"Let us say that you have ten minutes, ten minutes to shut out the world, ten minutes away from the telephone, ten minutes for contemplating God and the things of God, ten minutes for spiritual realization. Remember, the world outside does not have the capacity to give ten minutes to this. It is only those who have in some measure been touched by the Spirit of God who have the capacity to sit for ten minutes in this contemplation: What have I in my house? I have the full measure of Christ-peace. I have all that the Father has, for the Father has given His allness unto me. God has even breathed into me His life; therefore, I have in my consciousness life eternal. I, the Christ, am come that I might have life and that I might have it abundantly. I have in my house, in my consciousness, life, and life abundant, infinite life, eternal life. I have an infinity of supply, because the Christ reveals that my heavenly Father knows that I have need of all these things, and that it is His good pleasure to give me the kingdom. I have the kingdom of God within me, and this is the Kingdom of all that I shall ever need. I have in my consciousness eternal life, infinite supply, divine peace. As vou contemplate this for five or ten minutes each day, you carry into your world the awareness of all that God is and all that God has as a gift that has been bestowed upon you by the grace of God. If you have contemplated that, you have brought the peace that passes understanding into the room." - Joel S Goldsmith, Altitude of Prayer

Dolindo Ruotolo"How many things I do when the soul, in so much spiritual and material need turns to Me, looks at Me and says to Me; “You take care of it, then close its eyes and rests.” In pain you pray for Me to act, but that I act in the way you want. You do not turn to Me; instead, you want Me to adapt to your ideas. You are not sick people who ask the doctor to cure you, but rather sick people who tell the doctor how to. So do not act this way, but pray as I taught you in the Our Father: Hallowed be Thy Name, that is, be glorified in my need. Thy kingdom come, that is, let all that is in us and in the world be in accord with Your kingdom. Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven, that is, in our need, decide as You see fit for our temporal and eternal life. If you say to Me truly: Thy will be done, which is he same as saying: You take care of it. I will intervene with all My omnipotence, and I will resolve the most difficult situations.O Jesus, I surrender myself to You, take care of everything! (10 times)Mother, I am yours now and forever.

You must keep on praying for light: and of course, even in the hall, you must begin trying to obey the rules which are common to the whole house.And above all you must be asking which door is the true one;not which pleases you best by its paint and paneling."- C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity"When you don't follow morning sadhana, the whole day you will be tortured by maya. Whatever little I have taught you, follow that, and nobody will be aggrieved.
