And now on with the Blog…
This is my story about RJW(pronounced ‘RIJWA’). RJW is a Grand Cosmic Wizard. I came upon RJW many years ago, and have developed an intimate and profoundly moving relationship with him.
RJW has helped me to grow from feeling insecure and awkward to feeling competent, confident and secure in many domains of my life. I am successful with many of my aspirations and aims because of the guidance and advice that RJW offered.
When I first met RJW, he told me a story. How I came to meet RJW is a story for another day. The story that RJW told me was about a community of people who lived in a cold and wet region of the world. Most of these folks all wore the same flimsy, light jacket with a picture of a dragon on the back. The dragon was supposed to be a symbol of strength. However, because the climate was often wet and cold, and the light jacket did not protect the people from the elements, they often walked around with the sniffles, or a bad cold, or even the flu.
RJW spoke of one tailor in this community who made heavy winter coats that felt very comfy and warm. The folks who wore his coats did not get the sniffles.
However, most folks in the community would not buy this tailor’s coats because he did not put a picture of a dragon on the back. When asked why he would not put a picture of a dragon on the back of his coats, he said, “I spend my time making durable, warm coats; I have no time to worry about dragon pictures.”
Most folks would walk away from his store (sniffling, sneezing, and coughing), and would say, “You do not know the right way to make a coat if you do not put the dragon on the back. The dragon protects us from harm.”
I asked RJW what this story had to do with me. RJW told me that I conceal my true inner strength under theatrics of bravado (wearing expensive clothes, driving an exotic car, wearing a fancy watch, and expressing an extroverted personality) … and then I wonder why I shiver and sneeze my way through life?
This was a real eye-opener for me. Over the next several years, RJW proceeded to introduce me to empowering knowledge, guiding principles, and inspiring truths that taught me a powerful lesson: when ripe moments come (which are always coming), the truth within me always offers the right and perfect action, just as the flower quickly responds to the morning sun.
RJW has taught me how to get results in the real world, where I once believed that I did not have enough time to get all the things done that I wanted to do in order to feel successful. Phew. That’s a mouthful. Read this sentence again, slowly.
This blog is about helping you to maintain the success you are now gaining by following the success-principles and inspiring truths that I am passing on to you.
(1) Dare to be creative by trusting your intuition.
(2) There are innumerable ways that you can use the information I offer you – find your own unique style.
(3) You know, far better than I do, what you need to do to succeed with your abstractions (the mental fantasies that you want actualizing in your life).
The specific answers lie within you; dare to ask yourself.
(4) Discover the Grand Cosmic Wizard that dwells inside of you … give him a name that is important to you … and come into complete faith that he (she) has all the answers, all the ways and means of helping you to achieve your ambitions.
YES, the Grand Cosmic Wizard RJW is ME – the Authentic Self that dwells deep inside of my consciousness. The initials of my name are RJW … and this is how I came to call my Grand Cosmic Wizard – RIJWA.
You have complete faith in the physical things you can see, hear, taste, smell and touch … now it is time to have that same kind of complete faith in the Grand Cosmic Wizard that is waiting to make your acquaintance.
*************************************************************************************************
ILLUMINATING TIP
Complete faith in the Grand Cosmic Wizard must precede the demonstration of his (her) existence
*************************************************************************************************
It is through daily meditations and communications with the Grand Cosmic Wizard that you learn to look away from your false self – that reactive part of you that gives you bad advice, that offers you dragons (false symbols of bravado), and promises you riches.
Only the day dawns that you awaken to the Grand Cosmic Wizard, when you stop depending on dragons to empower you to live your dreams. What are your dragons?
Might I mention, now, that expensive clothes, fancy watches, exotic cars etc, are perfectly okay to enjoy, as long as you see them as toys, and don’t think they are possessed with secret powers.
My blog for the week is complete. Let the wisdom of this post sink in. If it is confusing to you – that’s great! It is in a state of confusion that you are about to learn something new.
What say you? How has this post touched you? Please leave your comment so others may learn from you.
Thank you, and Blessings

Hi Rob. Whoa… I hung in there tonight and thank gawwwd I did! I have to admit I felt silly calling upon my “wizard” but once I really got it, it was felt pretty good! I don’t know why I get so serious about everything. That’s my biggest curse. I forget to lighten up and have fun. Even when I’m trying to have fun with my kids I WORRY if I’m fun enough. It goes on and on. So I started thinking about a bunch of names that could be my RJWA, and liked Deon’s example. So my wizard is Pasco… it’s was my nickname when I played baseball. Those were the best years of my life. It was just lots of fun and BS’ing with the guys. Nothing was serious. We played hard, and busted each others chops and nobody cared about anything except getting home for dinner. Just thinking about “Pasco” and that feeling that bubbles up reminds me that I can be worry-free, happy and healthy. Hey, like you say… If I did it once I can do it again, and then I can do it a million times. Thanks for all you do. I can’t wait for the weekend because Pasco is ready to come out and play!
Hi Roger. Pasco is a great name for your Grand Cosmic Wizard, Roger. The name conjures up good feelings – that is what is important. Make it your primary function, a function of great importance to allow Pasco to effect marvelous tranformations to occur within you. If you make it a habit of filling your mental temple with the guiding word of Pasco, you will experience a second birth – the birth of your soaring spirit. You are one of my favorite students. Thank you
Good day Rob,
I’m still a bit in awe on how you are able to take a story, spin it in such a way, that the lesson penetrates our thoughts like a piercing sword. It comes to cut away the false beliefs we’ve been carrying, some of us, for most of our lives. Last night was certainly no different for me. I have had this somewhat like “alter ego” that I gave a name awhile back. He was more brilliant, eloquent speaking, and who I would see myself becoming; he was my “hidden royalty”, if you will. He knew what to say, but more importantly, when to say it. And I called him “Kingskid D-1″, I looked at him as the son of a King; which made him a prince. I didn’t choose that to make me think myself as being higher than anyone else; it was more so how I thought I should carry myself, in spite of how others chose to see me. If I act like a prince, the Universe would continue to see that I acquire the prince treatment. As a matter of fact, when I first started out blogging, most, if not all of my titles through out social media was named, “Kingskiddd1.” Several years later, here I am learning and grasping a new way of living for myself, and you have given Kingskid D-1 his purpose in my life. You have solidified our relationship. You have confirmed his existence. He’s truly been my Master Wizard thus far, and I’ve noticed that it wasn’t until I first adopted him that my life has taken on its new meaning. He started me on this journey of self-discovery. This was a fantastic lesson, and I thoroughly enjoyed each of the stories you shared with us on last night, and through this post. I thought you explained abstractions, using the apple tree seed, beautifully! Powerful lesson here, my friend. And I can’t thank you enough for the formal introduction to my Master Wizard.
Cheers!
Hi Deeone. Kingskid D-1 is the son of a king, indeed. When you take this on as YOU, your energy will flow as freely as does the river of life, and your development, which has been constantly arrested by your memories of turbulent past failures, will once again soar at the speed of your souls natural growth. Put on your safety goggles, Deeone; your life is about to go into full swing of operation. Expect the best! Blessings
Fantastic… All of it. It was kind of a kick in the butt for me! I found myself actually hoping there was some kind of Fairy Wizard Godmother who is just going to help me out and get me that job I want!
I know that’s not how life works, but I still find myself wishing that I won’t have to do ALL the work! LOL! If I’ve learned anything it is soooo true that “If it is to be it is up to ME!” There is ‘no’ ‘if’ ‘ands’ or ‘buts’ (and butts) about it! So, I am caling on Kara-Bear-a to guide me to make all the right moves. I’m definately using the SMART goal approach you talked about. KARA-BEAR-A looooves simple and specific…. BUT –> Kara loves to make things hard and complicated!
I think I just need to find the simplicity that is right under my nose. I know there is an answer if I stop being a drama queen and just go for it. Listening to the show made me realize, maybe I’m not dedicating enough time to my goals as I should. I have to find clear action steps Kara-Bear-a can take and stop waiting for someone else to just make it happen. I’m going to write it all out first thing tomorrow morning… for now I’m stressed and Kara just wants to get some Ice Cream & a Hawaiian Pizza and forget about life for a while.
Kara-Bear-a will hit the gym tomorrow too
Thanks everyone!
Hi Kara-Bear-A … Oops, was I suppose to call you Kara? I like how easily this is coming to you. The great and glorious center of your heart is bursting wide open with this reunion, isn’t it. I can feel it. I like your attitude about this great discovery. Thank you
Hey brother man. I love this wizard stuff. Ha ha! Killer show too. Man, JK sure got his act together. It made me think that I don’t really have any concrete goals I’m working towards. It’s never really been my style… ya know I’m not the Type-A personality type! My way of life is to be in the moment and be mindful and compassionate as possible. But at the same time I know I have to exist and make my way in the real world, and that means making money! That being, said I think I’d like to set some concrete goals for my business this year. I know I could hustle up some new clients if put my mind to it. A good reality check for me… I’d rather be out there in the Cosmos but have to come down to earth to pay the bills every month. Having the luxury to be free and easy can get expensive!
Hi Rus. Al Einstein was not a type-A personality, and yet he was a rocket ship when it came to setting lofty scientific discoveries as his goals. Martin Luther King Jr was not a type-A personality, and look at the evolutionary goal he set (that all people be free). The indescribable vibration of your heart spreads to every domain of your life when you connect with your authenticity. Even money matters become a joy to deal with. Thank you for your point of view.
Hi Rob. This brings me way back to when I was just starting my business. There were a million nay-sayers and know-it-alls who insisted they knew what was best for this “poor naive girl” to do. Somehow, my parents made me a tough, stubborn nut and I listened to my intuition. This is something I’m proud of myself for and am patting myself on the back
When people think you are naive they trie to sell you all sorts of “dragons” but in business intuition plays a huge part in success. You have to trust the people you are writing checks to and only our “Grand Cosmic Wizards” can see through the layers of BS. I have good radar for that and it has been the secret to my success. The trick is, dont think! Trust yourself and your feeling – that’s the Wizard talking. For anyone who is skeptical of this concept, take it from me it is very real so you better pay attention.
Hi Carol Anne. Yes, one’s business intuition is nothing less than one’s Grand Cosmic Wizard giving great advice. Nice noticement. The hidden jewel of one’s business wisdom is known to the person who dares mix business with intuition. Henry Ford did it … and he did pretty darn good in business, didn’t he. Bill Gates did it, and he has done pretty darn well for himself, hasn’t he. Thank you for that.
The surprise for me early on was that the secret to maintain what I gained was to try for more.
I think there was a line in Young Guns II, about how we are growing or dying, and there’s no in between.
My take away is that gains aren’t static. If you want to keep what you’ve got, take it to the next level … and sometimes we’ve got to fight for the inches.
Hi J.D. The secret to maintaining, indeed, is never quitting, always living from a paradigm of enrichment. Nice catch, and I love how simply you stated it. Brilliance! Of course, I’d expect nothing less from you (an individual who has taken personal control of his process of evolution). Thank you
Hi Robert, I admire you audacity with this concept. I’m too old to call upon my Wizard. I think he got killed in the 80′s. I have a hard time separating myself into two. I like to think I’ve got a few things figured in my old age and for the most part have spiritual self and myself all one entity. I guess I don’t like the idea that I need to be two people to enjoy life. For instance, when I’m sailing I am me and when I’m not sailing I have the freedom of sailing inured in my soul. I have learned to have faith in myself and only myself. When I set goals or set out to do something I generally consider it a done deal. Maybe this old dog isn’t interested in new tricks… but I think it’s good stuff for the young pups.
Hi Salty, It is both relaxing and empowering to realize that you can live your life being the Authentic Self and only that self. Are you really able to do it? I believe very few can really remain this consistent. The bottom line is that we need to continue with the inner adventure, in spite of all difficulties (and polarity guarantees that life will have its difficulties, doesn’t it). thank you
I dig it, Rob. I’ll play… I’m calling my wizard “The Walrus” … he’s a brilliant songwriter and musician and he just wants to shove me aside and get into the spotlight. I like that. It’s like I’m resisting and all I have to do is get out of the way. I’ve always felt I’ve got it all inside of me, but for some reason it gets stuffed. It’s like there are brief moments when The Walrus pops up and does something great and then I hide him away for a while. I want to get him out there all the time. I can’t tell you why I just can’t let it out all the time. It’s like there is part of me (John) who thinks he has to struggle and suffer his way to the top… what is up with that? I have this self-flagellation side that runs the show 98 percent of the time. If doing this Wizard stuff can get me free from that worry and struggle I’m all for it. Enough is enough already it’s time to stop talking about making it and MAKE IT. Well, I’m in it for the long haul so I’m willing to try anything. Sometimes I think I can’t go on like this, yet I go back to the same old thing day after day. I’m ready for my breakthrough, for sure.
Hi John. Just as darkness can not snuff out a flame, the 60,000 No’s cannot snuff out ‘the Walrus’, can they. When you are feeling discouraged, know that ‘the Walrus’ is not feeling discouraged, right? Blessings, and thank you for letting us know your Grand Cosmic Wizard’s name.
Well, I for one was a bit skeptical when I saw all this wizard talk. All I could think of was Harry Potter. I’m guessing your a big Harry Potter fan too because all the wizards are like these uber mensch. People who get Harry understand that unlimited side talk. They may be week and geeky on the outside but it’s all about their wizardlyness! You might want to capitalize on this whole wizard thing… people are into it. They just opened a Harry Potter World (like Disney) no too far from me. The kids loved it, but I have to say I may have just loved it more! … And you know how many books JK Rowling sold! Yeeesh! But, it was kind of funny because I have been a closet Harry Potter fan and just pretend I am indulging my kids. Now, I kind of see why it appeals to me so much. I think we all just want to let go of our own tired, boring petty ways and just do something spectacular. What I like about your concept is that it ia not a huge leap of faith to pretend we are wizards. Ya know? It’s not like when I was a kid and I thought I could fly if I prayed hard enough, or become a professional baseball player if I ate enough banana’s (don’t ask!). But I can be a wizard of just making a living. I think making a living is an honorable thing. I don’t have to make millions. But if I have a beautiful family and I like getting up in the morning and cleaning my pool I would say that is Magic! So I’m naming my Wizard: Master Shaq. After Shaquile Oneil who played for the Orlando magic, and Disney is in Orlando, and Harry Potter World is in Orlando, and Port Charlotte is not too far from there. Not to mention you know how much I love basketball!
Hi Pat. I like the image that I get when I think of your Grand Cosmic Wizard’s name (Master Shaq). Real courage, to do things that break us through to a new world, comes when we repeatedly leap beyond our surface personality (the mechanical self). Thus, the reason for seeing ourselves as wizards; when we do this enough, all fears begin to banish. I haven’t read nor seen any of the Harry Potter books or movies. Seeing oneself as a wizard is really a very natural thing to do, because deep down inside we know it is true. Blessings.
Hi Rob, What about all of us old folks who have to reconcile the fact that maybe they have been guided by a different force all their lives? It’s a tough pill to swallow when I think that their has been a “wizard” that could have made life a lot more enjoyable and fun. I have to say, this one rubs me the wrong way. It’s not your fault. You have a different kind of youthful energy that I can’t always relate to. I’m stuck in my ways, but compared to most people our age I’am “out there” too. In fact, a lot of my old colleagues think I have lost my marbles since I’ve retired. Ha! I think they are right, but I don’t think “losing my marbles” is a bad thing. It’s a hard row, indeed. To think I had everything figured out, and then to realize I have no idea about life. I guess that’s what they mean by “born again.” Sorry, I’m just rambling. I have to change my mind a little bit at a time. I’ve been thinking this way for most of my life and I’m trying to come to terms with shaking hands with my “Grand Cosmic Wizard.”
Hi Georgie. Your past can be seen in an astonishingly different way when you shake hands with your Grand Cosmic Wizard. Indeed, the act itself (relating to your real self in a new way0, adds strength to your day. Trust in life-transforming decisions and you begin taking control of your personal evolution (no matter what age you may be). Decide now to extend your hand to the wizard inside. Blessings
Wow! I must say that I am enjoying your storytelling. You certainly have a great gift. I like how you are able to weave tips for living consciously into your tales.
For a time I was blogging with a lot more creative stories. You have just reminded me not to forget about telling stories myself. Thanks for the excellent reminder and inspiration. I am going to take up your number one tip on daring to be creative by trusting my intuition.
Hi Evelyn. The subconscious delights in stories, and that is the level of the mind that I want most to communicate with. It is a happy day when one realizes that communicating with the subconscious is the only kind of communication that will never fail her. Thank you, Evelyn. Blessings
Ya know, one thing that you are beating into my head is that it really is ALL up to me. I wanted so bad to just have someone who can wave that magic wand and fix me. But, man I just gotta do it and make those changes myself. I can read and learn all there is to it, but until I just get fed up and DO IT, I’m gonna be stuck. I’ve been patient with my love life, now I’m fed up and anxious all of a sudden. I’ve got lots of pent up energy lately. Does that ever happen to you? I realized that I am still kind of waiting on someone else to help me out. I’ve been hoping a friend will play matchmaker, or someone falls in love with my OK Cupid profile, or maybe someone will magically find me on facebook… Ugh.. I’m beating myself up for being so passive. I feel like taking massive action and just clubbing a girl over the head!
HA LOL… I know I can’t do that. But there has to be more I can do than thinking positive, being patient and not getting too drunk at the bar. Man, I’m fed up that I just can’t figure out exactly what I need to do. Ha, I guess that’s the whole point of the blog, duh. I know, I know… I’ve got to look inside and find the answer… sigh
Hi Alan. Feeling fully alive in life is a spiritual experience; it’s not merely a discussion of ideas. You get too caught up in your thoughts. You’ve gotta ‘get out there’ and take more chances. Trust in the Grand Cosmic Genie (inside of you). He won’t fail you. Keep going. Blessings
Hi Rob,
Love this truth – “Dare to be creative by trusting your intuition.” We all have that inner voice, we just need to look and find it. When we listen to our intuition, we have indeed found our wisdom. Thanks for sharing. Your story is captivating.
Hi Cathy. When you truly trust your intuition, you begin seeing through your false self … and any resistance to seeing through this false role (that we all play so well) is a slippery path to take. Blessings
This concept is great exercise for me. I always feel like I have two selves that are battling for my attention. I’ve read so many different self-help books that I’ve become hyper aware of myself. I envy people that are ignorant because they don’t have the same head games I do. I think having a Wizard is a good trick to get out of my overthinking ways and back to my intuition. If I can separate myself from my know-it-allness I won’t keep on this rollercoaster. The odd thing for me is I intuitvely do know what I need to do to make a bit more money at my
Reiki practice, but I get so stubborn about doing it. I think the Wizard in me will just go for it and stop being so darn proud. Just the other day I turned down a walk in client, because they didn’t have an appointment. I found myself feeling offended that they thought they could just walk right in. I didn’t follow up to schedule an appointment or even try to get them in that day. Duh! Talk about self sabotage. The Wizard in me would have done whatever it took to get their business… my know-it-allness did what ever it took to seem important.
Hi Alicia. YES, accepting the wizard inside is a great way to get over your ‘over-thinking ways’. Catch yourself wandering back to your ‘over-thinking ways’, and leap back to the Grand Cosmic Wizard for advice. Make it a habit to do this, and you will be wonderfully surprised how your life will improve incredibly. Blessings
Well put rob. The Wizard in me, after giving this some thought I shall call it,”Happy”. the reason for this is when I go with my intuition things always work great. I think with my mind and feel with my heart.
As for the things I have in my life, I am just grateful for them and treat them with kindness, so they don’t need replaced to often. I don’t need a dragon on my coat and a fancy brand name. To sum it up the people in my life are what is important and the things that keep me warm in the winter and cool in the summer help me to stay health so I can enjoy the people.
Love the way you make me think and blessings to you always rob.
Debbie with “Happy” as my signature.
Hi Debbie. ‘Happy’ is a great name for your wizard. It fits your ‘wizard personality’ perfectly. The name ‘Happy’ helps you to see through your surface personality when you are tending toward ‘unhappy’ (which is unnatural for you). Everything tends toward happy endings when we realize that we are not the surface personality we put together in painful childhood moments to get the approval of others … doesn’t it. Thank you
Hi Rob,
Another wonderful post my friend. I love reading the stories you write, they are not only inspirational, but also help us to understand things more easily. For me personally, one of the things that help me get in touch with my cosmic wizard is meditation and visualization. One of the times when my cosmic wizard has guided me is when I wanted to attract the woman of my dreams. When many people told me to “give up my high standards,” my cosmic wizard didn’t like that and kept telling me that I will get the type of woman I wanted. I had great faith that I’m going to succeed and I did. Now it is time for my cosmic wizard to guide me on the ways to conquer the money domain and I believe it is guiding me, just I have a few limiting beliefs and one of them is “I have to work hard to attract money.” Working hard = stress (in my mind) Yet, I keep reminding myself that there are many people who don’t work hard and work only for a few hours a day doing what they love to do and in return attract a lot of money. However, of course, these are the minority. I’m still doing some rigorious mental exercises to help me conquer the money domain and in the end, I have faith that I will succeed. After all, “I’m destined to win at whatever I set my mind to.” Thanks for sharing my friend
Hi Dia. Let’s look at the money part of your comment, okay? I know a lot of financially wealthy people, and I find they spend more time on the golf course (or on their boat), than they do in the office. They’ve learned to stop playing foolish games with themselves about money; they raised their sense of self-value, and with that they found that making money is an easy thing to do. I am living testimony to this fact. Blessings
Yo my man. I first thought you totalie lost your rocker when I was readin up this week!! I’m like wizards…. cmahn.!! But i got you now. I had to listen to the radio show to really figure it out. That in itself says alot cuz I cant set still for 15 minutes to talk to a goom….. let alone listen to y’aLL ramble on HAHHAHAHHA …. I kid I kID YOU kNOW I’m listening every week. I just listen it AT work when I’m sposed to be filling out TPS reports and shiz. double HAHAHHAHA!! But to get real for a second I coulda used a wizard voice last weekend.
Yo, I been mad faithful to my girl for almost a year now… no more messing around.Then all of a sudden I meet up with the old crew and I’m like OOC (“out of control”for u octogenarian mofos) all over again. If I was a coke-an-ya head you would call it a relapse! naaaht a comebacK! Long story short, I hooked up with some pyag just to proove something to my boys. It was fun but NAHT worth it at allll!!!!
j My serious question to you is why does this old B-Shiz come up? It’s like I thought I was ALLlllL done with that and all of a sudden I was like an animal OOC. And anD AND why am I still killing myself over it and can’t get back to normal. Yo… I guess I need a wizard to talk to when I’m ordering up Jaeger shots for my pickle heAD FRIENDS!!!! HAHAHHAH. I’LL call him Frugal Marcus… nuthn magic about thatb SHeeaht! LOL Holla back for real this time. PAX OUtss>
Hi Marc. ‘Frugal Marcus’ is a great name for the wizard that lives deep inside. The only way to win over the deluded world that grips you (yes you), is to look inwardly beyond the hysteria that sometimes overcomes you. I am not insulting you; I am helping you to see what you really want to see (aren’t I). Blessings
Ohhh snap. Yeah son… yeah…
I don’t know Rob. I can’t do this one. I’ve been struggling with the job hunt for so long, I feel like I can’t do the self-help talk any longer. I’ve tried everything and am loosing faith. I don’t need a wizard, I need a good lead. Where do I even find that? Sorry to sound bitter but it has been a rough week. I was feeling good about everything, then all of a sudden I’m lower than ever. Does that ever happen to anyone else out there. I almost prefer it when I was angry all the time. At least I know what to expect from day to day. I just feel like I need a solid lead… ya know a little kismet in my favor… not another positive thinking deal. I like what your saying, but I’m just in a bad spot the last couple of days and would really just like to feel like I am making progress instead of thinking about making progress.
Hi Ramone. You almost prefer when you are angry all of the time because it allows you retreat back to false security. The wolf invites the sheep into the meadow, and the sheep stupidly follows because the sheep thinks the wolf’s smile is real. How can you attach this to your preference to be angry? Blessings
Complete faith in the Grand Cosmic Wizard must precede the demonstration of his (her) existence. I shared a divine moment with a hindi friend in the local post office when, in talking about religion/spirituality she said “it’s not about the God, its about the faith” For me faith is knowing without “proof” but better said it’s “knowing before the proof”. Discovering that my right path was inside me, in the spark of me made in God’s image is a work of shedding rather than accumulating. The “stuff” may come though it is truly just a bauble and all of it is easily released for the peace of living rightly. My wizards name is Sylvia, she walks through sun dappled woods and around a sacred pond.
Hi sylvia. I like that you named your inner wizard ‘Sylvia’ How simple is that? A feeling of ONENESS (between you and your wizard) comes from such divine simplicity. A strong feeling that you are going somewhere in life (which is the feeling I get from you) begins your journey to somewhere. Thank you
Rob – you really had me on that one. What an awesome surprise to hear that RJWA was your true self! I completely did not expect it. I love the idea of meditating to connect to, and commune with our true inner self, which knows the right, intuitive path for us to follow. Lately I’ve been doing a lot of possibility contemplation/meditation, and I also like to connect to “the field” to get in that space of connection and bliss. But I am going to play with the Grand Cosmic Wizard within tonight. Many thanks!
Hi David. A teacher’s work is to supply you with right mental construction material so you may build a bridge to the fabulous cosmic castle that exists on the hilltop of your consciousness. You are elevating your awareness nicely. I imagine you like what you are seeing. Thank you
Hey Man, been a while since I commented, but I’ve been following along. Just want to chime in because I like your angle. Like David (above) I was delighted by the twist. You keep me guessing. But i especially wanted to touch base because I’ve been using this all week and it has been a lot of fun. I didn’t know it, but my wizard IS Wynton! (You may have guessed Wynton the Sax aint my real name!) I aspire to play like the greats… Miles, Wynton and anyone in the Marsalis family (not to mention I actually play trumpet). I’ve had a my usual gigs over the weekend and they were pretty low key. Let’s just say nobody would notice if I missed a note or two (or three!)
But man, I have been revitalized. I got up there and didn’t care who was paying attention, and who was just straight drunk. I played as if I was at carnegie hall. It made all the difference in my attitude. For the first time in a while I had fun just playing ALL OUT. So thanks for that!
Hi Wynton. I did not guess that you real name is not Wynton. Qui Surprize! Now I know where the name came from. You named your Wizard ‘Wynton’, and then you liked it so much that you named ‘you’ that name. BRILLIANT! Thank you for that tip.
i Rob. I’m looking forward to what you have in store tonight. I’m hooked. You’ve been rattling around my brain this week. Everywhere I go I start thinking what would Joan of Arc do? That’s my Wizard… As it turns out she knows exactly what to do! Just last night I was at Trader Joe’s and a younger guy was looking in my basket. Normally, I hate it when people get nosey. My usual response would be to just turn away and show him my back side. Instead I engaged him and said, “this is my favorite you should definitely try it!” (it’s the Trader Joe Macaroon), and he said, “OK, I usually just get the chocolate chip…” then we had a great conversation about what he was up to and it turns out that he is studying Art History at BU, and that was my Major.. (eons ago
). So, we went on and on about that. It may seem trivial but it was such a nice interaction and touch of humanity that it really made my day. Thanks Rob and thanks Joan of Arc… this stuff works!
Hi joan. ‘Joan of Arc’ … I love your wizard’s name. I love the simplicity of your encounter at Trader Joes. Meeting new people offer unique new perceptions that strengthens that part of us that wants to experience newness above all else.
Thank you
Hello rob. New to this blog. I’m hooked as well on this idea of a “wizard” It is interesting how far we can get when we get our creativity in focus. The concept you mention here is a great excersise.
Hi Kimbundance. Learning to increase our level of mental abstraction, and then learning how to take that abstraction to action so it actualizes in our reality – that is what proves that we are indeed superlative creators, doesn’t it. Welcome aboard. Blessings
