Is God a Mule?

Let’s have some fun with this blog, today? Okay? In spite of your inner involvement with a specific idea about God, please remain awake to what you may learn from this blog. Thank you.

Fact: The mind is very uncomfortable with ideas that are unexplainable. The mind can become obsessive about explaining the unexplainable.

By now, in life, I imagine that you realize that anything that remains a puzzle, troubles your mind; you are bombarded with anxious thoughts. Life can be delightfully simple if everything is explainable – but everything ain’t!

Let’s take God, for instance. Until recently, science has had a problem with God because God cannot be explained with a mathematical formula. Science loves to demystify everything and God cannot be demystified.

You are, right now, uniting yourself with a natural law – if you are still with me. How are you doing? We can only see the absolute folly of our mental ways when we remember that ‘all is well’ in spite of life’s myriad mysteries. Okay, let’s go:

God is an idea in the mind of man. If mules have an idea about God, their God would be a mule. Would he not? God certainly would not be a man. Men are often mean to stubborn mules!

If butterflies could think, and had an idea of God, their God would be a butterfly, would he not? Butterflies can fly. Man can’t. Why would a butterfly think God is a man?

Well, if every animal had an idea about God, you can bet that God would look just like every animal. That’s funny … or is it? We insist God looks like us … how do we know?

We’re having fun here. This blog isn’t really about God, it’s about how your mind works to make sense of everything. The problem with making sense of everything is that we take the mystery out of the vastness of reality. We also take the mystery out of the vastness of our potential when we try to explain ourselves. What’s this got to do with our God conversation?

Einstein repeatedly said, in his latter years, “Man is God, ignorant of the fact.” He was not excluding any other beings from also being God, but he was excluding mathematical formulas from explaining God. He also said at age 25, “I’m a scientist, of course I do NOT believe in God,” and at age 65, “I’m a scientist, of course I believe in God.” I love that!

If YOU really are ‘God in a bod’ ignorant of the fact; what NEW would you instantly do, if you awakened to this news! DO YOU NOT SEE WHAT BEAUTIFUL WORK AWAITS YOU?

If this blog offends your religious philosophy – I apologize. I am not disputing any religion – I am just wondering out loud and sharing it with you.

Please give a comment and let the readers know what you would do differently if you really believed you were God – ignorant of the fact – and now you remember.

Blessings, blessings

The Quantum of Money

I am about to take you on a mind adventure where the principle makes sense, and yet, nothing else may. Yet, the principle still makes sense … because it is precise!

Reality is a construction – this opinion gained foothold around the turn of the twentieth century. Before this, we had Newton, who convinced the scientific community that everything in reality could be reduced to tiny little particles – atoms, and then neutrons, electrons and protons.

And then scientist began studying light – WOW! When light was studied, which is the photon, it was discovered that sometimes the light behaved like a particle – BUT SOMETIMES IT BEHAVED LIKE A WAVE! And what’s worse – how it behaved depended upon how it was observed!! Voodoo!!!

From the above discovery, the scientific community came up with the following premise: REALITY, AT THE FUNDAMENTAL LEVEL, IS ‘OBSERVER CREATED’. This means the quantum field of reality exists as shear possibility – it has unlimited potential!

So now – imagine tapping into this quantum field and using it to attract money into your life.

Student: What turns the quantum field into matter?
Quantum physicist: Measurement turns the quantum field into matter.

What if you measured dollars in terms of 10,000 units… instead of one dollar bills? Did you know that millionaires think this way?
Student: Money doesn’t grow on trees!
Teacher: Yes, it does … Money is made of paper … Paper is made from trees.
Student: So, money does grow on trees!

Do you know the root word for ‘measure’? It is the Greek work ‘metra’, which means uterus. Is it possible that money is born from the ‘OBSERVER’ who measures money in terms of $10,000 instead of $1.00? You are well on the way to creating more money in your life when you make ‘something out of nothing’; make a big deal out of money in a joyful way: I LOVE MONEY AND MONEY LOVES ME! Now, that’s something!!

Imagine all the good things you can do to help the world with all of that extra money!

Everything you sense in your world right now – begins with a thought. And as the thought develops, it pops out of the quantum field to become your reality.

Most folks are thinking ‘big recession’ right now … and they get to measure their lives according to this thought (lack, lack, lack). You are the ultimate CAUSE of the abundance of money … or the lack of money that you experience in your reality right now. It’s not the recession – it’s you! IF IT IS TO BE POVERTY, IT IS UP TO THEE! Constant association with foolish ideas makes a person foolish … and thinking in terms of lack is a foolish idea – do you agree?

There is certainly a lot more going on around the domain of money than most folks are willing to take responsibility for. This bad new is good news … awareness creates quantum space for you to do something about it.

Again, this is simply a blog … so I will end here. There is a lot to think about. Help contribute to prosperity on the planet by observing the quantum field positively, especially when it comes to money. Oprah does – why not you?

The center of power, located deep in your subconscious, is opened when you fully awaken to your awesome ability to be an OBSERVER of reality from a rich and prosperous perspective. If you would say, “money come forth,” and mean it … really know it can be so … you should immediately buy a large wheelbarrow – you will need it to cart your money around!

That which you think … from deep in the heart of your mind (the heart-mind) … comes to you faster than the speed of light … it comes to you with the speed of thought! How fast is that? Realize – every day that you work with a rightly operating mind … is a great day.

Reality is observer created. This is a valid principle, and you are the Observer. This is a fact!

Blessings …. Have fun offering comments …

Let’s Play

What is your mind? It’s all you’ve ever known since you began talking to yourself. Isn’t it? Before that, there was just ‘pure awareness’. There is no mind needed to be aware. Did you know that?

Your mind contains memories of the dead past. In fact, your mind spends a lot of time accumulating and filing memories of your dead past.

Your mind contains imaginings of your anticipated future. You don’t have nearly as many mental files on your imagined future as you have on your dead past. I wonder why we favor remembering more than imagining? Some favor imagining more – Leonardo Da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Walt Disney.

Of course we all understand that the future is always ‘yet to come’. There’s nothing new here. The future is always a possibility. Again, nothing new here. What happens to possibilities that lie in the future if we are hit in the head by a meteor that has hurled down from the sky? Well then, those possibilities never happen.

What’s interesting about the future is this: in every instant, the future is becoming the present … and in the same instant, the present becomes part of the dead past. Huh! I never thought of quite like that before.

The dead past has no possibilities. It’s dead and over with. How can it have possibilities? It can’t! So, why do we spend so much time in the past?

Let’s look at this matter of the future, the present and the past once again: the future is always a movement into the present, and the present is always a movement into the past … and the past is dead and buried (no movement).

So … knowing all of this about tic-toc time, how can you use it to live the life you aspire to experience? The point of all of it is to live the way you really want to live right now.

  1. Do you want an uplifting tomorrow – begin being loose, natural and uplifting right now. That’s the point!
  2. Do you want to avoid foolish mistakes – begin avoiding acting foolishly right now. That’s the point!
  3. Do you want to take control of your life – begin taking control of your life right now. That’s the point!

What are you afraid of? What stops you from living in an uplifting manner, from avoiding foolish mistakes, and from taking control of your life right now?

Don’t complicate the matter by saying you have obligations or commitments or circumstances that stop you. Be practical. Stick to the point.

  1. The past is dead – stop using it to excuse away your life.
  2. The future may never come, and when it does, it is nothing more than a movement into the present – stop using it as a waiting room.
  3. Real valor never falters. It arises from the moment and gets things done.

Are you willing to take valor on as one of your prime qualities? So, how do you do this? The only way to do this is to become so aware of this present moment that you have no excuse to falter. Become this aware of the moment, and you find yourself living with valor – You find yourself unhesitatingly doing the right and perfect thing that uplifts you. You avoid foolish action. This puts YOU in control of your life.

Many blog and tweet readers unwisely prefer syrupy motivational comments – hoping such comments will encourage change. So they wait … and they pay! I know. I was one of them for years – one who read syrupy motivational comments (thousands of them in hundred of books – before blogging and tweeting). I was hoping it would do the trick. It won’t.

So, what do you have to say? What will you share that will help others better understand the message this blog is conveying? How can you give more to this blog by commenting, so that you may get more from it?

Thank you, and blessings

The Matter of Relationships

I am often asked what my thoughts are about relationships and echoing NO’s. So, let’s take a peek … and then please add your comment; it’s a great addition to what I offer.

Our relationships are puzzles with no instructions attached. However, we all try to manage our relationships, and rarely are able to succeed – they seldom turn out exactly as we dream they will be.

Relationships are always puzzling, and the more we try to demystify our relationships, the more puzzling they become.

When we enter into a relationship of love, it is even more complicated – because we are two, uniting as one, and yet we have differently conditioned minds; minds that experienced dissimilar NO’s …WOE’s … breakthroughs … and … WOW’s.

The biggest problem that causes problems in our relationships is how to be silent – how NOT to be caught in thoughts of NO. In relationships where there are a thousand problems, it’s because of the thousand echoes of NO that are going on in the two minds involved.

Even when one person is silent, the other person has a thought … and trouble can begin. Try it. Sit silently, and watch what happens – “Why are you silent? What’s the matter?” Where does this line of questioning come from? Even silence can be a haunting ‘NO’ … remember when mom was mad at you and gave you ‘the silent treatment’?

It takes work to bring a relationship to the level where there’s an absence of “NO’s”. Sometimes it happens when two people are tired, and begin accepting things as they are (a conspicuous absence of echoing NO’s shows up). It is far more rewarding to become aware of echoing NO’s, and work to rid the relationship of them consciously.

There is nothing more rewarding than harmonious relationships. These relationships are a consequence of ‘peace of mind’, which comes about when the echoing NO’s (of the past), subside in the mind.

Harmonious relationships are not two people agreeing to the same NO’s. Heavens NO! That’s not it!! Harmonious relationships are based on ACCEPTANCE – void of NO’s.

When you come across a happy marriage – the basis is ACCEPTANCE. There is no better way to work on differences than to begin by ACCEPTING the differences without judgment or ridicule.

Until we solve a more fundamental thing about ourselves – our echoing NO’s – we cannot solve our relationship problems. Until we get over our personal NO-Attacks, there is no possibility of solving NO-Attacks that we impose on others!

The Authentic-Self says to you, “I am such a beautiful person, but you make me look so ugly when you allow NO-Attacks to effect how you relate to others.” Ponder this please.

The False-Self is an artificial person you created yourself to be in childhood moments of fearful NO’s. The False-Self can never experience harmonious relationships. It’s basis of existence is NO! It is difficult to know your personal challenges with echoing NO’s directly. It is easy to see them in a relationship.

This is a powerful blog. It is blowing me away! Read it again. Please don’t take it lightly, but do lighten up when reading it (don’t get down on yourself – that’s a NO-Attack!). There is something in here for you. There certainly is for me!

Blessings, blessings!!
