When people start coming too close to you, place the Light between you and them, and let the Light take the karma. The Light can handle it.

We have chosen the incarnation pattern for this particular physical life through a process of inner heavenly counseling with the members of the karmic board. We have set up certain paths that we will follow. When we have fulfilled and dispensed with the karma that we have agreed to complete this time, we then are living in the free; we are not necessarily going to "die" and transcend the body.

The most difficult thing about being a Spiritual Warrior is confronting yourself. It is in those moments when you are free from the distractions of the physical world that you have the greatest chance for upliftment.

Am I saying to dismiss people's suffering by saying, "Well, it's their karma?" Not at all. People need your love and compassion, your reaching out and your caring, and it is always helpful to suspend any judgments and say, "I don't really know what's going on."

The way I see it, the future, not the past, has put each of us where we are in this moment, in this place, in this position in our lives, so that we can claim the potential that awaits us. In this, there is great freedom, great personal responsibility, and great opportunity to learn.

Your prime direction is to understand your own beingness. That's a full-time job.

The only things needed from you in your life are involvement, commitment, support, and expression of loving. That's all, and on this planet of negativity, that's a lot.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. It's knowing the process of your being and how you process life, and how things are processed inside of you, and then working those in such a way that they become functional and usable to you, either by working with them or getting out of them. I would not suggest to anybody to put up with something, because putting up with it is, in a sense, condoning its existence, its behavior, and its actions in and around you. Something may be causing a level of disturbance inside of you and even though your mind says, "Oh that's all right," the uptight stomach says, "No it is not". If you accept it in the mind and ignore the stomach, you're disowning the signals of your life. You're disowning something inside of you that says, "I have a signal for you about something that is out of line." It may be saying, "Your house is burning down and you don't want to hear this signal". All the while you're saying, "Well I wish I would have heard the signal, I'd have gotten up and saved the house."

We can't get the truth out of this outer world. Somebody says that this stone is worth five dollars, and another one says it's worth five hundred, and they're both experts. What do you do? Keep the stone, sell it to the highest bidder, or do whatever you see fit. Do what you please in your life. If you do what's best for you at any given time, you're going to learn and grow.

When you see something negative happen, like a lack of understanding or a quarrel, instead of adding fuel to it by saying, "Yes! You were right! You should have hit them over the head," you have a responsibility to place loving and understanding there. Even when someone is fighting and yelling at another, they're really saying, "Please understand me. I can't do it myself. Please listen; I need your help."
