There is no battle. Light is light because it is light. Dark is dark because it is dark. One exists to enhance the other. It just is. Light brings light and dark will show up for you in wonderfully sinister ways. You can bring whatever you choose to your sphere of influence. ~ Creator

For many of you, the act of surrender takes tremendous courage. That is because you don’t quite trust it and fear the unknown. You think it may be better but you are also afraid that it may mean careening about wildly. When you truly understand the act of surrendering into the flow, and know that it can only take you to a better place, you will see there is nothing to fear. Surrendering is choosing to enter the flow of unconditional love. It is dropping your resistance and allowing yourself to be carried, guided, loved and supported beyond all your […]

HJ: A mind without a heart is dangerous and a heart without a mind is reckless, but when the two meet and are balanced in perfect harmony, we become wise.  And we then begin to live in full alignment with our true spiritual selves.

Spiritual Evolution – Uniting Heart And Mind

By Brandon West | Project Global Awakening

–

We are all experiencing very specific life cycles, and they are designed specifically for us. They are like a university course designed to teach us a specific set of information, but instead of graduation they ultimately lead to energetic, consciousness, biological, and spiritual evolution (which are all the same thing).

Our life experiences and

“Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life.”  - Hermann Hesse, Bäume. Betrachtungen und Gedichte

In the spring of 1994, I traveled to Dharmsala, India to shoot video for a documentary on Tibetan’s view of aging. It raised many questions within me regarding...

That you live on Earth is a blessing to Me and to you and the whole wide world. I am the Acme of Your Life. I am the Culmination, and you have Me right now arm in arm with you. I give you the Gift of Life. I sponsored you, and I sponsor you still.
 
How well I am aware of the matters that grind over and over in your mind and wear you out. You may treasure Me for the gifts I give you, yet you may not treasure Life Itself. You do not want to be so close to Life, so involved in it, so up and down in it like a peripatetic elevator. You are so caught up in the Stream of Life, and the lesser matters that you allow to aggravate you to an extreme over and over again, do you not?
 
I hear you cry to Me:
 
“Dear God, would I learn that what has been done and not done right is not worth the aggravation I give to it. I would love to be free of aggravation, yet, apparently, I jump on the bandwagon of being upset. I often think: If only others would think ahead, all the grief there would not be.
 
“Of course, if only I had thought ahead. If only I had. Every time I am the culprit, God. Yes, if others had done thus and so, it would be better. Yes, if I had done thus and so, it would be better. I wouldn’t be aggravating now.
 
“I am in a slump. It must be that I need to sit up straight and make room in life for myself. I must stand tall. I don’t want to make myself an ant any longer climbing up and down these little hills of upset that I make so important.
 

The Universe gifted you and each of your brothers and sisters with the ability to heal, change, grow, learn and step into who you really are. No one person hold this, no one person is privy to privileged information. It already exists in you, remember who you are. ~ Creator

“Don’t own so much clutter that you will be relieved to see your house catch fire.” ~ Wendell Berry

You know what I recently noticed? That I am no longer attached to material things like I used to be.

There was a time when, because I was attached to every little thing that I possessed, I would get so mad whenever someone would take my things, use t...

The act of surrender ensures you are moving with whatever energies you are experiencing as efficiently as possible. If you are not in a time of tangible movement, surrender will keep you out of resistance and ready to go the moment the energies support movement. If you are in a period of accelerated flow, surrender helps you move with those energies and emerge much less battered and worn than if you were in resistance the entire time. You might think of surrender as being the grease that allows you to move with the flow, whatever it is doing, with far […]

Evidence continues to emerge, both scientific and historical, suggesting that the way in which the majority of us currently sleep may not actually be good for us.

In 2001, historian Roger Ekirch of Virginia Tech published a paper that included over 15 years of research. It revealed an overwhelming amount of historical evidence that humans used to in fact sleep in two different chunks. (1)

In 2005, he published a book titled “At Day’s Close: Night in Times Past,” that included more than ...
