Ep 135It's Smooth Sailing from Here
God is standing in your Heart. With His arms outstretched, calling you to step out of the boat, like Peter. To step out of thought, and onto the water. Onto the Love. Into the Heart. It's smooth sailing (from) Here. Notice how the wind has died down. The waves have calmed, your mind is quiet. The Peace He left you, you have found It.

Ep 323When God Says Yes #GMweekends
bonusAffirm: (t)His love is changing everything, feeling It as you say it. *This Love is changing everything.* When you're looking at something you don't like, feel those words inside, and know that you're looking at the past, you're looking at an echo, what you're seeing isn't really there. So don't react. Just know that Love has changed everything, and you'll soon see It, because God is saying, 'Yes'.

Ep 322One Who is Everywhere is Joyous, One Who is Nowhere is Free. #GMweekend
bonusRock and sway between these two mantras today- 'I am nowhere'. 'I am everywhere'. They're both true. The moment you make the felt-connection with Love, you are beyond the body. You are no longer attached to it. You're free and that freedom feels like Joy. You are everywhere, and nowhere. You are everyone and no one. You are the invisible, formless, boundless Love appearing as the countless visible forms. And because you know This, because you ARE This, that body smiles. Love is felt as its very being.

Support the show Today's Quotes: "When we know who we are, we're everybody and we're free." -Krishna Das "Toss attachment for body aside, realizing I am everywhere. One who is everywhere is joyous." -Osho, The Book of Secrets (On letting go of attachment) "You will not ask “how.” If your house is on fire you will not ask anyone, you will not go seeking a master to ask how to come out of it. If the house is on fire you will simply get out of it. You will not lose a single moment. You will not search for the teacher, you will not consult the scriptures. And you will not try to choose in what ways one has to come out, what means have to be adopted, and which door is the right door. These things are irrelevant when the house is on fire. When you know what attachment is, the house is on fire. You can put it aside. There is no need to ask how. It is absolutely a fire, a hell. You can jump out of it. This sutra says: 'Toss attachment for body aside, realizing I am everywhere.' And the moment you toss aside the attachment, you will realize you are everywhere. Because of this attachment you feel you are limited by the body. It is not the body which is limiting you; it is your attachment to it. It is not the body which is making a barrier between you and the reality; it is your attachment to it. Once you know what the attachment is not there, there is no body to you. Rather, the whole existence becomes your body; your body becomes a part of the total existence. Then it is not separate." -Osho. The Book of Secrets (p. 929). Osho International. Kindle Edition.

Ep 134How to Get Unstuck
Feel stuck, but feel Love, too. That's what gets you unstuck. You don't have to surrender the stuckness, or love the situation or environment... You just Love the Love, and the stuckness gets healed. The environment changes. Just Love God-- which means Love Yourself. You Love the feeling of Love. You Love that you can hear It, that you can sense It everywhere. You don't want that 'thing', or that person, or that situation, you want THIS (LOVE/GOD/TRUTH/REALITY) You don't need anything but This! And then This becomes 'that' (what you thought you wanted), and because it's the way of the world, 'that' eventually becomes This again. And then This becomes something else, somewhere else, someone else, But It's always just God. It's always just You. You're always only ever meeting YourSelf.

Ep 131Are you strong enough to stay conscious through the teachings you are receiving?
That problem can't be (t)here, because Love is (t)here. That sickness can't be (t)here, because Love is (t)here. That seeming lack can't be (t)here, because Love is (t)here. That's the lesson you're learning. Every challenge is only meant to draw you closer. And the bigger the challenge, the bigger the reward, the bigger the seeming awakening you'll have in that moment, the bigger your smile will be when you wake up in that moment, and remember in that worry, or in those tears, or in that pain, even if just for a second-- "only Love is here... that's right, I was trippin' again, I was hypnotized again.

Support the show "Are you strong enough to stay conscious through the teachings you are receiving?" -Baba Ram Dass BELIEF in something apart from CONSCIOUSNESS The nature of error is summed up in one word-hypnotism. We are all hypnotized into believing that there is a selfhood other than God. The minute you see God "and", you are hypnotized. The moment you see a mortal, material world -you are hypnotized. Now, you can never get un-hypnotized as long as you are judging by appearances, because the thing you are judging with, the human mind is a state of hypnotism. In other words, in looking out from your eyes you are looking out from a state of hypnosis. The only way you can be de-hypnotized is when the five physical senses are quiet, and you are still, inside of you, and then spiritual awareness reveals to you the truth of being. Remember that you are dealing not with sin and not with disease and not with sinners, but rather with a false appearance produced by the belief of a selfhood apart from God-a universal BELIEF so powerful that it operates as law in our consciousness until we detect it and cast it out, until we know the truth. - Joel Goldsmith

Ep 129May you wake up this morning in "the new life".
You're going to be very productive today. The things that you've been putting off-- it's time to start, even if you just take one little step. Just one little step, with Love. Don't do anything without this Feeling. Without this Presence. It's like you're doing nothing at all. If you want your actions to be powerful, you have to do them with God, AS God. If you must plan today, if you have to use that mind, use it with Him. Use His Mind. Her mind. And you do that by feeling Love, while strategizing. Feeling Love while writing. Feeling Love while sending that email, while having that conversation, while listening right now. Don't put It off. There is no later. There is no before. There's only now. What are you right now? Who are you right now? And if you said Nothing, Nobody... that's as true as words can get. And in being Nothing, Nobody, you can become everything. (Rumi) You see that you are everything. I Love You I Am You nik "May you wake up this morning in "the new life." -Roger Housden “Listen, if you can stand to... union with The Friend means not being who you have been, but being instead a silence, a place, a view from which language is inside seeing.” - Rumi "There is no world and no creator that is neither gross nor subtle. Neither air nor fire, neither sun nor moon. There is no earth, no water, no light, no time, no word, no body, no action, no virtue, no mantra, no worship, no rites, no ceremonies. It is one no wrong Shiva or Shakti, no pilgrimage, no ceremony. He has no father, no mother, no guru. He is alone. Can you understand? All is mind. The mind is constantly dreaming. I said it is a dream. And my mind begins to dream of the waking reality. But I withheld it all Clear. Better keep it a secret because you cannot demonstrate it Do not move the mind." -Papaji

Ep 128A Powerful Way to Practice Affirmations
I know you can feel something moving, something stirring, something rising in you, AS you. I know you've felt it for some time, and often it just makes you feel anxious or frustrated. But that's a misinterpretation of excitement, of His Joy. Release the thoughts around timing (there is no time, only alignment), around what you think it should be. Say Your Will, not mine. "Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven", as it already is, in this ‘Dimension of Silence'* Let me see as You see. Let me hear as You hear. Let me Love as You Love.

A Lot can. But please remember that 'A lot' = 'Love'. Love can happen today, IS happening today, taking the form of 'that' (which you hope will happen), and everything else. Only Love is here.

Most comforting thing I've heard all day." - @Thebestchristianmemes via IG Rumi via FB group: "There was a man who sought the wisdom of a great sage, hoping to find a way to escape his suffering. The sage looked at the man and said, 'I will help you, but first, you must do something for me. Take this spoon, fill it with oil, and walk through the town without spilling a drop. "The man thought this task was simple enough and agreed. He took the spoon, filled it with oil, and began to walk through the town. As he carefully balanced the spoon, he couldn't help but focus all his attention on not spilling any oil. "When he returned to the sage, the sage asked, 'Did you see the beautiful flowers in the town square? Did you notice the children playing and the laughter of families?' The man realized he had been so fixated on the spoon that he hadn't noticed anything else. "The sage then said, 'This is the key to dealing with pain. Just as you were so focused on the spoon that you missed the beauty around you, when you are consumed by your suffering, you miss the beauty of life. Pain is like the spoon, and life is like the town. Don't let the pain consume your entire focus. Remember to look around and appreciate the beauty that still exists."

Ep 124When You're Discouraged.
You may not feel 100, but that doesn't matter. This is beyond all of that. That body will be happy some days and sad some days. But God is all days. The Son is here. It's shining all the time. That Fire never goes out. Breathe out and breathe in. Knowing that that's not just air. That's life, it's energy. It's abundance, it's confidence, it's clarity. Every breath you're becoming more your Self. Every breath is the Truth. Every breath is His Name. Every breath a prayer. Something has shifted. You may not be aware of it. You may not be able to see it, but you can trust that it is done. When you're breathing like this, aware like this, not thinking like this... That's God. I love you I am you nik "Prayer is the master key that unlocks the kingdom of heaven." - Kirpal Singh "Prayer is the soul's sincere desire uttered or unexpressed.

Ep 123Entering Into Joy
You're no longer trying to get to where you want to be. You're Here. And as long as you know you're Here, 'This' becomes that. It will appear as that. You will appear as that. As her, as him, as the one you are destined to be. It's law. It's Love. Love is the law. The only law here in this city.

Ep 322If everything in your life seems to be changing, let it. #GMfaves
bonusGod is saying-- It was from Me, all of it. So soften, into this moment, into that 'good' or 'bad' mood. And receive the Love that I AM (is) constantly Giving, Vibrating, Ringing. Singing.

Ep 122You ARE Shelter(ed)
Every time thoughts come as to how it's going to happen, when it's going to happen, close that body's eyes... fold its hands in front of it, and go back down into that bowing, back into that Humbleness. Bow back into God, back into your Shelter, like you're ducking under the doorframe back inside where it's quiet, where there is no world, nothing to solve, nothing to fix, nothing to think about. That's the point. Not good humanhood, not bad humanhood, Christhood. Make that your mantra for a week, and when you're saying it, you're unseeing good people, you're unseeing bad people, you're unseeing you, the 'people' you think you are, you're unseeing all the people, all the world. Only Christhood is here, which means only this Loving Awareness is here, and you feel that Loving Awareness, you be that Loving Awareness, Only, Formless, Silent, and that heals, that feeds, that pays, that's love, that's all.

Peace means that there should be no concept or thought in mind. If thought arises in the mind, time will also arise. When the thought that produces time vanishes time also ceases to exist. Then there is true peace. Anyone can try this. Keep quiet for a single instant. Don't allow the mind to stir. For a single moment be without any thought of the past. In that moment you will see that there is no thought, no time, no world. This is what I mean by peace. In that instant everything will be peaceful. If you keep quiet you will see that the whole world is quiet. This world does not exist at all If you sit quietly for a single second you will bring peace to the world because in that moment there is no world. Then do it for the next second, and the next. This the way to bring about peace, but you have to do it yourself and see." - HWL Poonja / Papaji "In the state of silence, a person does not shun out the ability to comprehend sound, instead he is trying to enhance his ability to hear the sounds, assimilate them discern them, analyze them and then synthesis them into a perfect whole of wisdom. Thus the observer of silence is trying to develop an ability whereby a specific sound can be heard. This is the vibrating sound of the Universe, which is called the sound of our inner soul. That sound of eternal vibration is 'OM' in our ancient scriptures." -Bhakti Ma

Ep 323The Only Real Gratitude #GMfaves
Imagine you have a direct line to God up to your right ear what do you hear? Prayer. Without words. True prayer. The one where you listen to God listening, the one where you hear God hearing you feel, 'thank you Father, I Am.' Happy Thanksgiving, I Love you, Nik [email protected] "In prayer, I do not go to God to have certain things brought about for tomorrow or for Thanksgiving or for Christmas. I don't do that, I go to God in this way. 'Today, tomorrow and all time to come, God, I belong to Thee. Map out my days.' And then, I sit in complete silence, in complete quietness, as if I really and truly had a telephone receiver at my ear and were trying to hear somebody at the other end. It isn't so much that I expect to hear a voice, although I sometimes do." -Joel S Goldsmith "Only those who understand that God is their own consciousness and that from this individual, yet infinite, consciousness flow all things can really know the true sense of gratitude. The only real gratitude is that which is felt for the gift of spiritual discernment." -Joel S Goldsmith "Dan Rather, CBS anchor, once asked Mother Teresa what she said during her prayers. She answered, "I listen." So Dan turned the question and asked, "Well then, what does God say?" Mother Teresa smiled with confidence and answered, "He listens." For an instant, Dan didn't know what to say. "And if you don't understand that," Mother Teresa added, "I can't explain it to you." -Via ServiceSpace "Maybe the soul is tired because all it needs is more time with the Lord; Maybe the heart is tired because it has been fed with all- the wrong things." -@worshipblog via IG Cory Asbury "I want to reach for God the way I reach for my phone.

Ep 121Affirm: "God is good. God is good to me. God is good at being God."
What GoOD thing happened to you today, so far? Your mind may say, "well I woke up this morning." It may say, "My family all woke up this morning." It may say, "It's too early. Nothing has happened yet." It may say nothing at all. Notice what happens when you pose a question to the mind, how maybe it throws out a few answers, but it quickly exhausts itself and you're left as Silence. That's the magic of questions. You can use questions to go beyond the mind, to go beyond yourself, to where goodness is, Godness is. Use affirmations to go beyond affirmations.* I love you I am you nik ************************ To claim your free gift, leave a review on Apple Podcasts, screenshot it and send it to me at [email protected]!

Lift your hands, heart, and soul, and receive that truth as you pray this prayer: My whole life I've searched for a love to satisfy the deepest longings within me to be known, treasured, and wholly accepted. When You created me, Lord, Your very first thought of me made Your heart explode with a love that set You in pursuit of me. Your love for me was so great that You, the God of the whole universe, went on a personal quest to woo me, adore me, and finally grab hold of me with the whisper, " will never let you go." Lord, I release my grip on all the things I was holding on to, preventing me from returning Your passionate embrace. I want nothing to hold me but You. So, with breathless wonder, I give You all my faith, all my hope, and all my love. I picture myself carrying the old, torn-out boards that inadequately propped me up and placing them in a pile. This pile contains other things I can remove from me now that my new intimacy-based identity is established. Hay down my need to understand why things happen the way they do. I lay down my fears about others walking away and taking their love with them. I lay down my desire to prove my worth. | lay down my resistance to fully trust Your thoughts, Your ways, and Your plans, Lord. I lay down being so self-consumed in an attempt to protect myself. I lay down my anger, unforgiveness, and stubborn ways that beg me to build walls when I sense hints of rejection. I lay all these things down with my broken boards and ask that Your holy fire consume them until they become weightless ashes. And as I walk away, my soul feels safe. Held. And truly free to finally be me." via @lysaterkeurst via 'Uninvited"

Ep 120Can You Trust God's Timing? | The Litany of Trust
"The Miracle is held in trust until you are ready" - Marianne Williamson In order to develop a habit of thankfulness, a habit of 'giving thanks before It's done', you have to trust that It is given. And although we usually show trust by being silent (Silence is Trust), sometimes we need a little more, a little practice, a Litany of Trust. Although this one is addressed to Jesus, you can change The Name to the one that feels most at home, most true for you. When I say Jesus, I'm talking about the Christ that is speaking through, working through, healing through, loving through the Man, the body, Jesus. The Divinity that is also working in you, AS you. We're feeling That, and we're trusting That, and eventually thanking That, unconditionally and truthfully. Not thanking It so that It may do something, perform something, give us something in exchange for this act of thankfulness, but a genuine gratitude. Finally, we are really thankful. We are really trusting. We are really miraculous. I Love you I Am you nik To claim your free gift, leave a review on Apple Podcasts, screenshot it and send it to me at [email protected]!

More than that - he is the here and now. The name God is just for those who can't find the here and now.

Hence they have no connection with godliness, but only with those who are blind to the near. That's why I say: Drop the distant. Drop paradises in the sky. Drop hopes in the future, and see the near in time and in space. Be here and now and see. See the instant in time, see the atom in space. In the time-moment, time ceases to exist. In the space-atom, space ceases to exist. There is no space, no time, here and now. What is left is truth, is God, is that. You too are that.

Ep 322Miracles Are Your Calling #GMweekends
bonusEvery time you become aware of a worry thought about tomorrow or next week, pause and pray. Pause by listening for Silence instead of to the worry thought. Remember that you're not thinking that worry thought. That thought isn't yours. You're simply listening to it... and you can choose to believe it or not. You can choose to claim it or not. You can choose to listen to Silence instead! And you pray by recognizing and feeling Go(o)d in the Silence. You pray by repeating (hearing or becoming aware of) the above mantra, the truth that it isn't you that must face these problems, but God in you. You pray by remembering that God in you has no problems, knows no problems, sees no problems. You pray by reaching and feeling for even 2% of the Love that is fully present in and AS that moment and by watching your experience of the moment and the seeming moment itself, shift. The awareness to pause and pray is the miracle, and it manifests as such. I Love you, Nik ▶▶Join our new forum, GoOD Friends and enter the Mala Giveaway!

Which means you have to, with eyes open, be able to keep your heart open in hell... And what it involves is bearing the unbearable. And who you really are can do it. So that who you think you are has to die in the process." -Ram Dass “Many misunderstandings and false beliefs about Christ will clear if you realize that there is no past or future in Christ. To say that Christ was or will be is a contradiction in terms. Jesus was. He was a man who lived two thousand years ago and realized divine presence, his true nature. And so he said: “Before Abraham was, I am.” He did not say: “I already existed before Abraham was born.” That would have meant that he was still within the dimension of time and form identity. The words I am used in a sentence that starts in the past tense indicate a radical shift, a discontinuity in the temporal dimension. It is a Zen-like statement of great profundity. Jesus attempted to convey directly, not through discursive thought, the meaning of presence, of self-realization. He had gone beyond the consciousness dimension governed by time, into the realm of the timeless. The dimension of eternity had come into this world. Eternity, of course, does not mean endless time, but no time. Thus, the man Jesus became Christ, a vehicle for pure consciousness. And what is God’s self-definition in the Bible? Did God say, “I have always been, and I always will be?” Of course not. That would have given reality to past and future. God said: “I AM THAT I AM.” No time here, just presence.” - Excerpt From, 'The Power of Now' by Eckhart Tolle and Now... And NOW :) I Love youuuu! Support the show

Ep 116GoOD Friends w/ Moojibaba - "Do not be afraid." (The Invitation)
Nikki sits down with spiritual teacher, Moojibaba, to share her journey through Atma Vichara/self-inquiry and Love. He then walks her (which means you!) through The Invitation, a series of simple questions meant to immediately dissolve the one seeking answers, seeking more, seeking 'next'. He says, "I feel that all beings are destined to wake up, to find God", and that, "in everyone, the Perfect Self is there, already. It cannot be improved upon. It needs only be discovered." And in this episode, you'll do just that, abiding as That, eternally.

It's Dawn now. The Sun is here, now. Can you feel It in your Heart? Try to hear It in your Heart. Your Heart is everywhere, but right now just try to hear It in that place where your human heart appears to be. Try to feel It in that place where that human body appears to be. Try to feel It over here where I appear to be, where these words appear to be coming from. That same Love, you can feel It here. You're not throwing It over here, It's already here, and you're tuning into It. You can tune into It where your spouse appears to be, where your boss appears to be, where your child appears to be, where your pet appears to be, where that problem appears to be, feeling your Self there, feeling your Self here, not as, 'I am here', or 'I am love', just Love, just Hereness, just Nowness, just Life.

Ep 110GoOD Friends w/ Vanamali Mataji - Saints on the Path
Nikki sits down with Vanamali Mataji of Rishikesh, India, while she is touring Europe. The scribe of nearly 20 books about God (from Sri Krishna to Hanuman to Shiva), Mataji starts with a powerful mantra and decree before sharing about the relationship between the apparent form and Formlessness, between Divine Ecstasy and quiet-Joy, and on living beyond time and storylines. She recommends practicing Yoga asanas daily to appear as she does- absolutely Radiant. "You can't live in a state of ecstasy all the time because the world will pull you down. But, even though it may not be ecstatic, it's still so filled with joy, not happiness, but joy. Because everything you see is a form of Its Form, or Its Voice. The birdsong, the sunrise, the moonrise, everything is part of that enormous and amazing power that energizes the whole cosmos. Every bit. So you can't go anywhere. Can you ever run away from yourself? There is no place you can run to. So that it is everywhere. The ecstatic moments may not be always there. As I said, the world will pull you down. But that joy is always there. Underlying joy is always there. That's why people love to live, even if you're in the throes of the worst type of disease, say, you still, the longing to live is still there because of that drop of Bliss which is always present in the whole."- Vanamali Mataji

It's like a three-legged race. You tie up with your partner, and you tie your legs together, and then you have to get in sync with one another, that's what waiting is in Hebrew. You get in sync with God and He ties up with you. You feel when He pauses and you pause. You feel when He runs and you run. And it's those who intertwine who wait to tie their life up with God's they renew their strength. - Bob Grimm "But those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." - Isiah 40:31 "The things that change are not our real life. Within us there is another body, another beauty. It belongs to that Ray of Light which never changes. We must discover how to mingle with it and become one with that unchanging thing. We must realize and understand this treasure of truth. That is why we have come to the world."- M. R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen from his book Questions of Life, Answers of Wisdom Vol. 1

Support the show Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath, writing about meeting Sri Anandamayi Ma: "She smiled and called me indoors, saying I was a stubborn child, and so I was. Before I sat, I proceeded to touch her feet, which normally she does not permit, but as I touched her feet, I was shocked to find my hands go through her bones and flesh to touch the floor. My body was electrified at that. I remembered that an Avatara is an illusion of light in the illusion of the world. It can at will, to increase a person's faith, make one experience his or her body of light. No flesh, no shadow, no karma... An Avataric Being is karma-less, when it does work in maya, it leaves no samskaras. It's like writing on water. When the un-liberated student does his daily chores or work, he creates karma. It's like writing on the sand. Uplifted and wonder-struck by this experience, I settled in a trance-like state and saw her radiance flooding the whole ashram and countryside. As my body elongated, my Consciousness left it to expand and merge in her wondrous aura. I was blessed, and when I opened my eyes, the surroundings were still radiant with Her Presence. "One face alone do I see. One melody alone do I hear." - Vanamali Mata "Chanting the Holy Name of the Supreme Lord Hari heals all diseases, ends all troubles and subdues all disasters (Vishnu Purana).

When your eyes fail, when your body becomes feeble with age and your intellect clouded, you will be left to grope in utter darkness. Set to work while there is yet time and try to kindle the inner light. In the hearth of the mind, ignite the fire of Self-inquiry or the fire of God's Name; fan it into a blazing flame by associating with the Holy and Wise, by prayer and meditation. Little by little, this light will grow bright and steady and illumine you both inwardly and outwardly; thereby the path to Self-realization will be made easy." -Anandamayi Ma "At all times keep your mind immersed in the thought of God, so that there may be no possibility of straying into a path that leads to misery." -Anandamayi Ma "Another level of you will begin to be born, a level of you which faces the apparently solid world around you. You'll find your Soul replacing your mind. You'll find the senses bump into your Soul instead of your mind which acquiesces and your Soul says, "uh-uh, no, no." And this birth of Soul awareness, as you practice this, is really the end product of what you're doing." -Herb Fitch, 40 Days in the Wilderness Audio 1 (Orlando, 1984) "Never accept the limitations of your environment. Remain inwardly ensconced in the castle of God's presence. There is no other haven of safety....In fearlessness affirm: "I am castled in God's presence.

Ep 106GoOD Friends w/ Rupert Spira - The Ultimate Form of Prayer
"If your mind is active in the service of God then that's as good as it not being active."- Rupert Spira. Nikki sits down with spiritual leader and philosopher (and one of her living teachers) Rupert Spira, to discuss the role of devotion and prayer on the non-dual path. He speaks about the difference between the knowledge, 'I Am' and the experience, 'I Am,' and the highest Truth that there is only God's Presence shining in us, as our experience as our Self. He then leads a deep meditation into the 'I Am,' reminding us, "All that is necessary is to sound the Divine Name, I Am, once, silently, within oneself." If you've been trying to access the Love beyond the mind, this is an episode that you should listen to twice. Each word is Presence. His words flow from The Word. And the Word is Grace. "Breath is one of the most transparent, the most silent experiences there is. But our Beingness is even more silent, even more transparent, even more empty than the breath." "The shining of God's Presence in us as us is not really the shining of God's Presence in us because there is no 'us' apart from God's Presence in whom God's Presence might shine. There is only God's Presence shining in us as our experience as our Self." "The ultimate form of prayer is the awareness of being. It's the highest prayer, the ultimate devotion in which there is no person left, just God's infinite being aware of itself." "In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross!" - Philippians 2:5-8 Rupert Spira's, 'The Heart of Prayer' on Amazon

Ep 105"You cannot hear the bell?" - Maharajji
This special hearing comes with seeming time, with more seeming practice. My Song is here for you to hear now, behind the breath, behind the beating of your heart, behind the thoughts. You don't have to wrestle them. You don't have to stop them. When you hear Me, they stop. You stop worrying. You stop. I start.

Instead of letting these thoughts invade our minds we must, rather, implement practical ways of ensuring that we are constantly in a state of recollection, peace, and prayer.

We have to study each thing we see, and as we learn from these examples we will exclaim, "My God!" Our faith will become strong, and from that faith will come the firm conviction that He is there, existing as a great Power. In everything we see, in every bit of His artistry, even in the grass and the weeds, we can begin to understand His Power. Each thing tells a part of the story of God. He sent us here saying, "Go, and understand all of My creations. If you understand the stories that they contain, you will understand Me and accept Me."

Ep 102The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive.
You'll still do the things. You'll still pay the bills. But It's Love paying Love. As long as you have Love, you'll have Love to pay, Love to give, Love to share. When you forget It, It looks like money you don't have, like relationships you don't have. like problems you do have. If you ARE Love, you have everything. And you must rest on that. Trust in this. "The more a soul trusts, the more it receives."* The quieter you become inside, letting that tidal wave of silence hit you, wash through you, the more you will receive-- the more comes in on that wave, the more treasures come in on that wave, get washed up from the bottom of that sea.

That is the anesthetic for the mind, Truth. And so that is the area that must be strengthened for an individual who finds that I still cannot be still. You do not know the Truth yet.

Ep 101You Broke Through | A Tidal Wave of Grace
You feel different because you are different. It's hard for you to do the things that other people do, the routines that other people have, because you're not other people. You're not a people. So stop trying to be a people. Stop trying to fit in. Stop trying to keep up. You live this Christhood, and you be your own, you be His own, and you'll lift everyone with you. You'll bring everyone with you, but you're not focusing on them-- that's just the side effect. You just chant and mind your business. You feel love where you see yourself, where you see others, and you mind your business. You see your business, and you feel Love, that's how you mind your business. And the right actions happen, but really nothing is happening. And as long as you remember nothing is happening, even while you are in action, you won.

You can't be man and woman at the same time. You cannot be here and there at the same time. Because Christ is your Reality every moment spent in another identity is a life in unreality. Every moment not in Christ, not as The Conscious Christ realized is a moment that has no real exist-ence. And if there happens to be fifty years of such moments then it is fifty years of unreal existence. Again, where do you go to live in your Christhood? You don't. You shed the belief that you are something else. You start with you. You cannot behold Christ in anyone until you have started with you. You have Infinity to give and if you are withholding that Infinity from your experience, you cannot find it even for yourself. Now, if we were to make a full-time commitment to our own Christhood, it would run something like this: Your telephone rings, and you say, Hello this is Will or this is Frank, or this is Dorothy, and then the other person identifies himself and you have a little conversation. Now, at that moment you have been caught unprepared, and you have not witnessed The Christ of the one on the other side of the phone. They have caught you unprepared and they have caught you in a human consciousness. You are not living in Reality at that moment. Whatever you say to the one on the other side of that line, whatever they say to you, is valueless in the true creation. It is something that will pass, it is not Christ centered. And so one of the major lessons and the most difficult to learn is to be alert to Christ. So that, you are always in the Consciousness that where you are the Light of Christ Is, and that is all that is there. And further, that the Light of Christ is everywhere, Now. So that the first phone that rings in your house, when you pick up that phone to respond you must consciously know The Christ is always here and The Christ is all that is there. When you are willing to make this preparation, this alertness, then you are beginning your full-time commitment to Christ and you are really taking the Two Commandments seriously. You will find that the moment someone on the other end of the line says something you don't like, if you are in this conscious awareness, that only the Light of Christ can be present, something in you will recognize the Life on the other side of that line and literally give Life to that individual. You only give what is there. And then your full-time commitment in Christ as the recognition of The Christ of all those you encounter, whether visibly or on the phone or wherever or however, even writing a letter, becomes an experience in Christhood. And what comes back to you is your own commitment to Christ. As you give the life of Christ to all those in your relationships they give it right back to you." - Herb Fitch, The Infinite Way Book Study on Kindle
