Thoughts of Awakening #328

December 31, 2018

The spiritual path
is a path of knowing
one step at a time
as knowing is revealed.

Therefore the spiritual path
is also a path of not-knowing.

One who knows
with the proud, proud mind
is not open to revealing.

Revealed-knowing
without mind-knowing
is the unfolding of the spiritual path.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #327

December 30, 2018

Resistance is uncomfortable,
so you find yourself willing
to step into an activity or thought
that will minimize resistance.

Minimizing resistance
is suppressing it.
No one heals through
suppressing resistance.

Be willing to rest
and allow resistance,
no matter how difficult
it seems to be.

Allowing resistance
until it dies
is healing.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #326

December 29, 2018

God cannot be described.
God can be known,
but it cannot be put into words.

It is time now to go beyond words,
to forget words altogether.

Although words may be used
to trigger a glimpse, a memory
or a realization of truth,
it is not the words that teach.

It is experience that teaches,
and it teaches only that
which you already know.

What it teaches is your home,
your reality and
what you are.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #325

December 28, 2018

The awakened mind
has no will of its own.
Will … I want … I desire
is the domain of the ego.

The awakened mind is.
It is in love.
It is in service.
It is in joy.
But to say it has a will
is an error.

The unawakened mind wants.
The bridge-mind,
which is the desire for awakening,
wants only one thing.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #324

December 27, 2018

There is nothing to say
when one is awakened to truth.
There is no where to go
and nothing to do.

Yet one who is awakened
may be moved by you
to say and go and do.

Your desire to awaken
will move the awakened soul,
so what you see in him
is you, truly.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #323

December 26, 2018

Surrender to the inner light
takes away all attachment to ideas,
for ideas are outer
and surrender is devotion to inner.

Surrender to the inner light
takes away all pain and suffering,
for pain and suffering are outer.
Pain and suffering is focus on outer ideas,
ideas of form and ideas of body.

Surrender is devotion to the inner light.
When one is consumed by the inner,
the outer disappears.

Ideas are distraction from the inner light.
When one is distracted,
return yourself to devotion.

This is true practice.

Thoughts of Awakening, #322

December 25, 2018

Ideas are an obstacle
when ideas are a part
of self-identity.

No idea is a part of your truth.
Your truth is beyond all ideas.

Ideas are used to guide you in this world,
but an idea is best used to guide
when you listen, act
and then let go.

An idea held to
beyond its moment of usefulness
is an idea that forms self-identity.
This idea is an obstacle.

See the obstacle and let it go.
Stay within the flow of ideas
without clinging to any of them.

~From our Holy Spirit

Filed Under: Daily Contemplation, Sidebar

Thoughts of Awakening, #321

December 24, 2018

An idea in the mind
is just an idea.

It is nothing more
and nothing less.

If an idea is given attention
it will become manifest
in one form or another,
but manifest does not make it
more than an idea.

You are beyond ideas
even though ideas may seem to be manifest
as you.

Let go of ideas
and their manifestation will drop away,
but you still are.

~From our Holy Spirit

Filed Under: Daily Contemplation, Sidebar

Thoughts of Awakening #320

December 23, 2018

How do you define yourself?
What are the limits you place
on the idea of who you are?

Do not take this question lightly
as something to read
and then move beyond.

Stay with this question.
Give willingness to see
definitions you might not have seen,
which are part of your identity.

Look at who you think you are and ask,
“Is this idea a limit?”
If the answer is “yes”,
give willingness to release the limit
regardless of how precious
the idea may be to you.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening #319

December 22, 2018

“I am not what I think I am”
is an important realization.

As long as you think
you are what you think
you will not let go of the obstacle,
which is your thinking.

Realizing you are beyond
the limited thoughts you hold
allows you to lovingly release
the limited,
and this opens your vision
to the whole.
