inviting you to the Path of Conscious Living 

Welcome to our Open Forum, where we examine the questions we encounter on our Spiritual Path...and now its time to look at

the meaning of Life

[or as someone once said: Get off your ass and DO something !!]

Let’s be blunt - everything has an ‘expiration date’... or, as it’s more political to say, a ‘best by date’... including this thing we call ‘Life’. 

Now, don’t bitch at me, I’m not the Creator, nor am I the one that forces you to stuff your face with twinkies / greasy foods / drugs and alcohol... nor am I the one who hides pesticides and other obnoxious chemicals and then labels your produce as ‘Natural !!’... nor am I the one who markets lots of pharmaceuticals that ‘enable you to live a happy and productive life ... even though you have diabetes / obesity / high blood pressure...’

Don’t get me wrong, I DO appreciate that we have medicines to take care of all this...I just don’t want people to indulge in their poor lifestyles, thinking that all they need do is take a pill and all will be ok.

You have a brain, so for Spirit’s sake, use it...or lose it !

Here’s the bottom line - Life is a joyous adventure... one of discovering all the great beauty that Spirit has created... of meeting gentle and loving people who truly care... of being appreciated just for being YOU... 

and if that’s not what you’re experiencing...then you’re not doing it right !

Now, some of you will point to ‘situations beyond our control’ ... to which I’ll happily reply that you DO have Free Will, and if something is not ‘right’ then CHANGE IT . 

You do have choices...You do NOT have to simply sit back and accept it... and yes, it may require you to make extraordinary effort to get to where you belong, but the other choice is to live a lesser Life... and is that what you’re worth ? Is that what you’re choosing ...?!! 

So, how do you figure out IF you need to change...and WHAT these changes need to be ?

Simple - ask yourself: are you happy ? [and I’m talking about smiling so wide that your dentist approves of your teeth !] ... Are you happy getting up in the morning ...are you happy going to work... are you happy with your home / your physique / your love life...? 

Yes, I know that the whole of Life cannot be an endless series of happy events... that stuff happens ... that somewhere along the line you’ll have an asshole for a boss / an idiot neighbor / an even more idiotic politicians ...

But then remember - you DO have Free Will, and you CAN make positive changes in your Life [even if it means leaving and starting again somewhere else !]  

This is your God-given Right... Happiness - and the pursuit thereof - is...your... Right !!!

[so why are you choosing to be less-than ?]

To help you in this process of self-inquiry I am going to invite you to try a small, little exercise...it will only take a few minutes...

Close your eyes and consider what makes you happy ... See yourself having it ALL ... Living a healthy, joyous and prosperous life... one where ALL you’ve ever dreamed about has been achieved, fully and abundantly...

Now, consider how much more you can do...how much more Life has to offer you... how much more there is for you to experience ... with NO limitations ...

What do you need do to get there... what changes do you need to make to allow all this to come to you ... and what help do you need to attain all this... and are you worth it ...?

Life is to be lived joyfully...

If someone has told you differently, well then, you’ve been deceived...

What are you going to do about it ...? 

We all walk this Path together - you are not alone. 

And so I greet you all, you bright and loving Beings, Namaste...

Instructions on the Path

This is a new module where we offer insight, guidance, and techniques that may help you on your Path, and resolving personal challenges.

As always, this is freely offered... the results depend entirely upon you and your efforts.

If you find yourself struggling feel free to contact us for more clarity and support.

How to live a happy Life

Most important is to fully KNOW that you deserve to be happy ... with NO limits !

Next is to embrace the fact that you are WORTHY of happiness !  Again, no limits.

[if you have any doubts about the above please seek help in healing your wounded self... It’s not your fault, someone has hurt you, and that’s not acceptable !]

Next list [yes, pen to paper] all the things that make you happy - no matter how small or large, list them all.

[Why ? Because it is a process of Clarity, and of Magnetic Attraction... trust me on this, it’s important].

Look at your schedule, and at least three times a week do something that makes you happy.

[more would be better, but three times is minimum... If you bitch about this, then go back to the second line above... What are you worth...?]

After a few weeks or months of treating yourself [and realizing that you are valuable]  then consider what small changes you can introduce that will enrich your life... Anything that will make you look forward to doing it.

[Small is doable... and the more you achieve, the more your self-worth will increase].

After doing this for a few more months, plan for a much larger treat - this could be an exciting vacation... buying yourself something expensive... going on an adventure [hot-air ballooning / sky-diving / learning how to sail / how to bake or cook exotic foods... basically anything that is outside of your everyday patterns].

Now it’s time to do more in-depth changes - introduce movement.  This could be Yoga / T’ai Chi / Martial Arts / Salsa dancing or Belly dancing / Train to run a marathon [or at least join a hiking club] ... basically do anything that involves movement...

Finally learn something new - not just a fun little hobby, I’m talking about something that requires effort - a new language, a different skill, arts or crafts, look at any college courses you may be attracted to, and even consider something that could be a new career... anything that would add to your resume...

Do all this and you would have created a series of experiences that will expand your Consciousness, and also have gently drawn you away from the mundane patterns of your life and broadened your horizons...

Now the whole world is open to you... and finally you can ask again - What makes you happy ?

P.S. Some of you will look at this list and think it’s too much / will take too long / requires too much effort ...

You can certainly stay the way you are, and choose to live a lesser life... and while you may well still whine and complain about all the crap that makes up your life, you cannot claim that you did not have options to change.

Yes, it may well take you years...but those years will pass, and you can either be living a different, more loving and fulfilling life...or you can still be in the exact same position you’re in today.

And if that is your choice, why are you reading this ...?!!
