Search the Loving Each Day Quotes

The number one enemy of the Spiritual Warrior is resistance. Resistance is the ultimate contracted state; it produces discord, disease, and violence. When we resist our own divine nature, we commit an act of violence against ourselves. Ironically, when we resist our dark nature it is also an act of violence. For people seeking a path of awareness, resistance can become either a stepping-stone or a stumbling block. But you can't overcome resistance by resisting it.

Watch out when you win an argument. That means someone else lost. If you are loving that person, you are then part of the loss. If you are not loving that person, you have your work cut out for you. As for me, if there is a conflict with another human being and someone declares it a win-lose situation, I'd choose the loss. I'd rather lose my ego, my position, my need to be right than win. I'd rather that someone I love learn from their winning than I inflict a loss on them. That's a heavier loss than I prefer.

"Baruch Bashan" is a statement that means "the blessings already are" -- that blessings are present, and all we have to do is to partake of them, enjoy them, and appreciate them. That is what a genuine relationship with God and Spirit is really all about: The blessings of God are present and available.

When you have established the familiarity with Spirit, it's an easy transition from this level to the next. At some point, you will just let this world go, and the physical reality will drop away from you. You'll realize your physical body is no longer present, and in the perfection of spiritual reality, it won't matter much to you whether you come back into this physical world or continue your path of evolvement on the other levels.

No matter how spiritual you claim to be, you can still go crazy with emotions if you don't strengthen the spiritual inner connection and exercise the conscious self's willpower. Most people give in to the basic self's won't-power and erupt in emotional energy that only vents anger, hurt, and dismay. What they are left with after this expression is anger, hurt, and dismay, as well as a lonely, exhausted feeling of energy depletion.

If you immediately get involved with your emotions or your thoughts of what should or should not be taking place according to some preconceived notion you have, you are creating a pattern inside of you that you will feel compelled to follow. So what we think is positive we attempt to put into our Soul, and what we think is negative, we try to send to hell and forget. But that is judgment. That is categorizing and placing. It has nothing to do with letting go.

If you strive for perfection, the work you have started will be finished by the Christ.

It is so important to allow each consciousness, each Soul, the freedom to evolve into its own awareness in its own timing.

Have you noticed that when you try to work on guilt or resentment or other problems, they beat you on the head? We start by rationalizing our problems, and end up complaining about who is in our way, and how to get them out of the way, and if we had had better parents we would never have had any problems at all. Then we say, "Why is my life so much harder than everybody else's?" Why don't you sit back and observe your life? Now.

Q: How does one control the wavering thoughts while doing meditation? A: With practice. The natural tendency of the mind is to wander and the process of meditation or spiritual exercises will help to discipline the mind and keep it directed the way you want it to go. If you are a beginner to meditation or spiritual exercises, it's a good idea not to try to "keep the mind quiet." The mind can continue to chatter but you just place it off to the side and continue to meditate. Don't be real concerned at first if your thoughts are all over the place. As you practice and continue to discipline yourself, you will experience the results. It can take time, so be patient with yourself.
