FEAR IS JUST A THOUGHT

FEAR IS JUST A THOUGHT

During an Energy Healing session with my friend Stormy Lake a few years ago, she said something that stopped me right in my tracks. It was an AH-HA moment. It spoke directly to my Soul. Though I had heard it many times before, and studied it too, THIS time ... was different. 

She said: "FEAR IS A JUST A THOUGHT." So many things I have researched have pointed to FEAR always being described as an illusion, yet for me and so many others, it was very REAL. But during THIS session with Stormy, I finally made the connection when she spoke those words on THAT particular day. "FEAR IS JUST A THOUGHT" ... And will NOT manifest in form UNLESS, I give Life to it. Unless I CHOOSE to bring that THOUGHT into FORM. 

So I started researching some more, letting my findings speak to my Divine inner guidance system. There are only two natural fears: the fear of loud noises, and the fear of falling. All else is manmade. Knowing this, ask yourself: What gives power to a thought of fear? – my INTEREST. If I have no interest in a particular thought, then it loses its hold over me. It dissipates and moves on into the Ether. Again, "FEAR, is a THOUGHT." If you're focusing on fear, you're giving it energy. Where your focus goes, energy grows. 

It helps to know that you are not your thoughts, and that thoughts are just energy forms created in Mind. You are the one experiencing, witnessing, and observing. You can stop giving power to these thoughts by not giving them your interest. By not focusing your attention on them. Thoughts die immediately when they are deprived of this "fuel" (your interest). If you don’t associate with that thought, or give power to that thought, it will dissipate quickly. 

LIFE is a stream of pure POSITIVE energy, and any negative thought will stand in OPPOSITION to it, causing friction - which is felt as suffering in the body. As Stormy continued to say: "fear comes from a source outside of Divine peace. It disturbs the path of rest and safety. When it becomes manifest in body, it holds us back ... Infirmity. Do not give power to your thought." 

In ancient scripture we find THIS verse in 2 Corinthians:

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience..."
2 Corinthians 10:3-5

 Take captive every thought. We must remember, thoughts become things. The unseen, made manifest. Every "thing" in form, must first have it's origins in thought. This is Universal Law. For every effect, there must be a first cause. 

Thank you Stormy Lake, and thank you Spirit within, for awakening and connecting a conscious understanding of this Law years ago, that I can now apply to fear and anxiety.  Guard the gate of your Mind ... Always. Choose wisely what you wish to bring into your Life experience. 

Proverbs 23:7 says: "For as he thinks within himself, so he is." This, is Cause and Effect. 

Just a "thought" :) ...

THE GARDENER THAT WE ARE

THE GARDENER THAT WE ARE 

 Everything that we desire must be planted as a SEED. WE are the gardeners. For ANYTHING to grow it must be planted, watered, and cared for. How can we expect fruit from a tree that wasn't first planted as a seed? Our thoughts ... are also seeds. Our actions (fruit) are the manifestation of our thoughts. Be sure to plant them in fertile ground. What we think, we become.

Universally, these seeds, will bring forth more of their kind. Like begets like. You must plant seeds of LOVE, PEACE, JOY, and ONENESS. All of us as the HUMAN RACE must have UNITY … not any other man-made racial, political, and religious system that brings about SEPARATION, or LABELS. There is but one point of origin (Source), for all things and all peoples. We are ONE … not MANY.

Instead of placing blame for your own thoughts and actions on god or devil, it is best to  accept your own decisions and responsibilities and know that the power to change is within ... not without. Your experiences are the direct result of your thoughts and actions, as well as the combined thoughts and actions of the human race. Good or un-good. And you learn lessons from each and every experience. 

Every one of these experiences is your teacher. Every person is your teacher. Every angel (messenger) that has ever crossed your path is your teacher. When you were in school, you were taught lessons, and given tests. Here, in Earth School, you are given tests, and taught lessons. These lessons (seeds of knowledge) are implanted in the garden of your Mind. Even biblical scripture record Jesus being mistaken as being a Gardener. Mary Magdalene was confused when, “weeping outside the tomb,” she turned, saw Jesus and thought he was the gardener. 

"... she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not recognize that it was Jesus. “Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked her. “Who are you looking for?” She thought he was the gardener."
~John 20:14-15

There is much to discover deeper in the Biblical stories that reference gardens, and a gardener ... even from the very beginning. The very act of original creation, as presented in the Bible Genesis story, begins in a garden. 

"And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed."
~Genesis 2:8 

Traveling from the Old Testament, to the New, the Garden of Gethsemane was a place that Jesus and his disciples customarily visited. Its name derives from the Aramaic word "gat semãnê," which means ​"olive press" and dates to ancient times. There were many olive trees in the Garden. The Olive tree is one of the most beloved, sacred trees and its place is firmly rooted in Ancient Greek tradition and mythology. Traditionally, the Olive tree is a symbol of peace and friendship. 

Things are rarely as they seem. There are always deeper meanings contained beneath and beyond the surface stories. Please take the time to search for the Truth in all things. If the world were living based on Truth rather than eons of deception and illusion, we would have no wars, no famine, no dirty water, better health, and no crime.

I can only speak from my own experiences, and have personally been diligent and relentless in seeking Truth and Wisdom for many years ... sometimes at a rate of several hours per day. My eyes have been opened to so many things. I am experiencing freedom now, in a way that I have never know before. Health, politics, religion, education ... please explore your own options.

Whatever thoughts you plant into your CONSCIOUS Mind, and thus impregnate your SUBCONSCIOUS Mind with ... you'll bring forth the offspring of that thought. The longer you affirm these thoughts, you will experience the feelings, emotions, and actions of those thoughts. This goes for positive, and negative thoughts. The better informed and educated we are, the less likely we will be to buy into the illusion. Read, study, question, and grow. Divide and conquer? NO. Unify, and live Life as it was meant to be. Free ... for all people ... everywhere.

Just a thought …

YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE GOD WITHIN YOU

YOU CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE GOD WITHIN YOU

Your consciousness is the God within you, the only creative power, because it’s the invisible part of you, and it emanates from Source Energy throughout the universe. It’s your thoughts and emotions ... your feelings ... which create your destiny. These are elements of the Divine Spark of God, and your consciousness is the sum total of your conscious and subconscious thinking ... your feeling, and believing. All Life is connected through the unseen web of the Matrix of Consciousness, or the Field. 

You first focus your attention and go within your own consciousness, within your Mind. There is where you claim to be what you want to be, your desires, your wishing well, and the Spirit within you will honour, validate, and execute it. The conscious Father/male Mind and subconscious Mother/female Mind will bring forth the child of your creation. The New Testament Bible states the following: 

"But you, when you pray, go into your room (closet), and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly."
~Matthew 6:6 

Go within your Mind (room/closet), shut the door (of your senses), and pray to your Father (creative/conscious), which is in secret. The Father is the creative power, it’s the progenitor. It’s the Life Principle within you. It’s the source of all things. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” The Word is the thought expressed. The Divine Feminine is represented by your subconscious Mind ... the womb from where all of creation emanates. 

"All things are possible for one who believes.”
~Mark 9:23

"For as he thinks in his heart, so is he."
~Proverbs 23:7

Man must FEEL it in his heart, not just in Mind. The FEELING is the key. The thought and the manifestation are one. Thoughts are things, and what you FEEL, you attract, and what you imagine, you become. The birth of quantum physics made it clear that light is made of tiny, indivisible units, or quanta, of energy, which we call photons. 

"Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light."
~Genesis 1:3

This, is the light of consciousness. English physicist Thomas Young's experiments were en-light-ening to say the least, He found that light is made of tiny, indivisible units, or quanta, of energy, which we call photons. Young's experiment, when done with single photons or even single particles of matter (such as electrons and neutrons), is a mystery to behold, raising fundamental questions about the very nature of what was deemed to be our reality. It can also be shown that the quantum world is influenced by human consciousness, giving our Mind an agency and a place in the metaphysics of the universe. It is US, that create our reality. Collectively, through the power of Mind, we can create perfection here in this Life experience. We ... can bring Heaven, on Earth.

HOLDING ON TO POISON

HOLDING ON TO POISON 

We all have experiences in Life that are "good" and "bad" but in reality they are actually varying degrees of experience. All are for our own personal benefit. They aid us in learning what is beneficial and what is consequential ... for ourselves and for others. Life is being, and part of that being is growing mentally, emotionally, and spiritually through our experiences. 

That being said, it is important to note that we are NOT our experiences. We are the Observer, the Witness to these experiences. We are spiritual beings with the knowledge granted us through physical experiences In this world of matter. We take the KNOWLEDGE (gnosis) with us when we return from where we came ... Source ... but we do not bring the EXPERIENCES with us. Much in the same way as we do not bring any personal possessions with us. They are not ours. They were here before we got here and they will be here when we move on. As the Old Testament Bible so profoundly says "There is nothing new under the sun." We are the great re-arrangers. We take what was already here and rearrange it into something else.

We should not take possession of any of our experiences. They are not us ... they are merely what we have witnessed or observed. Sometimes, we are directly involved, other times not so much. But it matters not ... they are as a TV show that we are watching. The scenes are not real, and we can only take from them the knowledge of what was contained in the presentation. We use our discernment and Higher-Self to be sure we have learned what is necessary, and then we move on. Some people have to repeat the experience if they didn't learn it. Nothing goes away until you fully understand what was contained within the lesson. Think of it this way: School, is about learning the lesson ... and then a taking a test. Life, is like taking a test ... and then learning the lesson. 

So many times we hold on to toxic experiences and memories. For some reason we do not want to let them go. They become familiar. This is the equivalent of dropping poison in your food. And sooner or later, it will kill you. Stress, heart disease, cancer, etc. All are manifestations of holding onto lies and deceptions. Only love and goodness is real. All else are illusory tools used to teach us these Truths. Once the image is seen in the mirror, the real thing is discerned and there is no need for the mirror anymore. It was just a tool. Remember, the shadow fades in the light. 

As we hold on to and fester over dark energy thoughts and actions, we find ourselves in dis-ease. All illness comes from within. Even if you "catch a cold," it must manifest from inside you, to the outside of you in physical symptoms. This dis-ease can be a mild illness, or a major life-threatening illness. Just know that ALL illness and disease must begin within. If you are not at-ease, then you are at dis-ease. Lose your peace, lose your health. That's just the way it goes ... we are designed that way. What you resist, will persist. Just know that you can change your perception of your experiences in the blink of an eye. It's all about perception. If your problem has a solution, then why worry? If your problem has no solution, then why worry? Let it go ... just put it down and leave it there. 

Holding onto negative beliefs, thoughts, and experiences, is the same as drinking poison. It will kill you slowly, or quickly ... but in the end ... it will bring about the demise of your physical Life existence. And all for something that was unnecessary and repairable. Do your Soul and your Body a huge favour and drop the negativity. Drop the tour of the past. Drop the festering. Just let it go ... don't give up, but voluntarily let it go and walk away. Do this, then take a deep breath, because you have defeated the real devil. You have taken away the powers of satan (the Opposer). You have taken control of the EGO. Congratulations.

GOOD DAY OR BAD DAY?

GOOD DAY OR BAD DAY?

So what's it gonna be today? What is your desire? Would you like to manifest a good day, or a bad day? Well, you can have either one ... if you think, decide, and believe it. Your subconscious mind is your magic tool. Whatever you implant into the incubator, then that is what will become. 

This is the Law of Cause And Effect and it is a universal immutable Law. Some call it Karma, which literally means "doing" ... so then it is YOUR doing. For every effect, there must be a cause. Now, also keep in mind there are going to be outside influences and the effects of what "other" has created that you will have to deal with as well. This is the Law of Balance - it is duality that we use to discern and to balance the scales. 

First, begin with your very OWN responsibility. What you actually have control over. Your OWN thoughts, conclusions, decisions, and concepts of what YOU desire. These will form what you will believe to happen, and create. Remember also, that the subconscious Mind works in positive images. This is VERY important. If you tell yourself "I won't have a bad day" the Mind hears "bad day" and thats what you'll get. Instead, think "I will have a good day" and the Mind hears "good day" and thats what you'll get. It's like trying to draw a picture of someone NOT walking. It can't be done. They are either walking ... or they are doing something else. There is no picture or image of someone doing a "not walk." Got it? 

Second, understand you will be subject to the Karma (cause and effect) of others … collectively. How you handle this is the key to your inner joy and tranquility. We find ourselves saying things like "well, he made me lose my temper." Or, “she made me mad.” The TRUTH is ... no one can MAKE you mad. Once you grasp this concept, you will remain in control of your situations. 

You see, no matter what someone else says or does, YOU have to make a conscious choice to GET mad. This is a choice and a decision that is entirely yours. No one can make you mad, you have to choose to get mad. This is the difference between reaction, and response. Most of us would react ... scream, holler, throw some things around. But if we take a few extra moments for evaluation and intuitive guidance, we will respond rather than react. It's a calculated, informed decision versus a knee-jerk reaction. 

In all the universe there is undulation and change. Ups and downs. Ins and outs. Ebb and flow. Like the waves of the ocean, what goes up, must come down. When we ride that wave ... when stay centered and keep our balance, we will find that we can remain good when things are good, and good when things are not so good. We can balance the scale ... and stand in the center of perfect balance in our Life. 

So set your mind to work on both a subconscious, and conscious level. Make sure both machines are in harmony. When they are joined together, it is as if we have wings to fly. This is the child or offspring of our Mind. The masculine and feminine become one, and it is the power of the third entity (Spirit/Soul) that unites them.

YOU ARE NOT YOUR EXPERIENCES

You Are Not Your Experiences

Life is filled with experiences, unfolding at each and every moment. Like a film, frame-by-frame, each moment is captured, as it’s own independent experience. Your next one depends on what you just experienced. Be thankful to every person that has come into your Life even for a brief moment. They had a message for you … and a lesson.

In the same way as we cannot reach 11 o’clock without first having a 10 o’clock … we move forward from where we just were. Step-by-step. The wheel of life spins across every peg before it comes to a stop. Clicking its way from the one, to the next … and before that, and before that, and so on. This is karma, cause and effect, in an eternal cycle. Evolution, devolution, involution, and revolution, physically and spiritually.

You are not the experience; you are the one who is experiencing. You are not what’s taking place, you are the witness. Just as you are not the car, you are the driver. But that YOU, is based upon a certain duality - for reference only. Spirit, versus ego. Spirit knows what is right for everything and everyone and acts accordingly, knowing the effects. Ego is led by it’s own selfish desires and acts accordingly … ignorant of it’s effects. When we make the right decision, everyone experiences benefits. When we make an error in our decision, everyone experiences consequences.

So each experience is a lesson. We either learn from it, grow, and move on … or we repeat it, remain in ignorance, and get stuck. It is important to remember each and every thing we witness through our experience, is not what we are … it is what we are to learn from. It is our teacher. We are here in earth school to evolve our Spirit and Species. The body decays and returns to the elements from which it came, and the Spirit/Energy returns also from which it came. We cannot create or destroy energy. This is Law. What is really you, always was and always will be.

When you make an improper judgment that your experience is who you are, it is a huge mistake. When in school, you are not your books, your tests, or your lessons; you are the one who is having that particular experience. When you begin to take ownership of your “mis-takes” or poor ignorant judgment, you will get stuck in a track of guilt and “sin.” Your “sin” is nothing more than missing the mark … missing the bull’s-eye of Truth and Right Thinking and Acting. In Greek, SIN is “hamartia” and literally means “missing the mark.” This was an Olympic Archery term. You are not punished FOR your sin as is commonly taught, but you are punished BY your sin … that is to say, you reap the effects of what it was you thought, said, or did; to cause the negative results.

As I said earlier, every person, and every thing that comes and goes in your life is your teacher, and is there for a reason and a purpose. They can also be your Messenger (Angel from the Greek). Thank these experiences and be grateful you have them because they are your teachers, and you are the student.

The only “mistakes” that we make in life are repeating in ignorance the lessons we have not learned. These events are no longer a “mistake”, they are now a choice. We are to learn by wrong thinking, and not repeat the same thought, act, or cause; if it does not lead to good and right benefit to not only ourselves, but to others.

Live your Life with no regrets. Take no ownership of your experiences, only responsibility for the decisions you made that led to them. Learn all you can learn … as above, so below. You are the Witness to it all ... the Watcher.

I will end with the Test of Three, sometimes credited to Socrates:

The first filter is TRUTH. 
Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to say or do is true?

The second filter is the filter of GOODNESS. 
Is what you are about to say or do, something that good?

The third is the filter of USEFULNESS or of BENEFIT. 
Is what you want to say or do going to be useful or beneficial?"

Take the time to respond, rather than react. Remember … in school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test, then you're taught a lesson.

Just a thought …

ANIMAL AND HUMAN SACRIFICE IN THE BIBLE

ANIMAL AND HUMAN SACRIFICE IN THE BIBLE

If you will bear with me for a few moments, I assure you that you will walk away with new knowledge, and a better understanding of ancient scriptures dealing with sacrifices than you currently have. So ... if you're up for it, here we go. 

The Bible says God was “disgusted with animal sacrifice” ... so he wanted a human sacrifice. So literal Roman Christianity came along, and said that God is not satisfied by killing just animals, he needs to have a human sacrifice. And so they misinterpreted the mythology of Jesus in the same way that the ancients misinterpreted the mythology of Animal sacrifice. Strap in ... 

“To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to me, says the Lord ... I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts, and I delight not in the blood of bullocks , or of lambs or of the goats ... When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand ... And when you spread your hands, I will hide my eyes from you when you make many prayers. I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.”
~The Book of Isaiah (OT)

Pretty clear, is it not? He will “hide his eyes” from you when you pray to Him. So what do we make of this conundrum? Is it all that difficult to comprehend? Let’s go beyond (meta) the literal text, and seek the Truth within. Let’s go past the “letter of the Law.”

When you separate from thought ... you are indeed sacrificing your animal nature. When you sacrifice your human nature ... you  become Divine, that is what these sacrifices are all about. They are esoteric, veiled in metaphor. It was misunderstood then, and even still today. The “old man” dies and the “new man” is reborn. The Christ (Divine Spark of God) resurrects from within you. Your negative animal base nature becomes positive, loving, compassionate, joyful, caring, and unified with your Higher-Self. You have raised your consciousness to a higher vibration. You have resurrected and ascended into heaven. This is the deeper Truth wrapped in myth and parable.

All of the murders and sacrifices were intended to be allegories and metaphors. To “kill” everyone and save the young female virgins was a surface story for a deeper message ... to keep and protect your creative aspect. The feminine is the creative principle in all of nature. God, Father, Source, Spirit, is the Divine masculine. Earth, Mother, matter, is the Divine feminine. The Divine seed is planted in the earth (matter), and the begotten of God are brought forth into form ... manifest birth. Just as a seed is planted in the earth in order to grow. 

The Divine Feminine is the womb of the Universe (YOUniverse). The Divine Masculine is the void from which all unlimited and unbounded potentiality emanates. The ancient Wisdom of the early Pagan civilization has become lost through incorrect literal interpretation of the Sacred Inner Mysteries of The Ages. Question everything. The answers are within.

RESIST NOT EVIL

RESIST NOT EVIL?
 
"Resist Not Evil" - What Does This Mean?

“As a man thinketh in his heart so is he...” Proverbs 23:7

Whatever a man thinks, he creates.

Whatever a person focuses on, that, he shall have.

This is such a simple concept and yet we have not grasped it. Jesus was quoted as saying, “Resist NOT evil.” WHY did he say that? And why do we continue to resist it?

The word “resist” here is key. He knew that in our resistance and focus, we will create MORE of what we are actually NOT wanting. THINK ABOUT THAT. 

Let me explain further: The human being is endowed with this “pearl of great price,” something that has been forming within the human race for eons. This “treasure” hidden within the human field is the ability to create. Whatever the human focuses his/her thought and emotion upon he/she creates MORE of what he/she thinks about.

Let’s say a woman experiences betrayal and thinks about the circumstances of the betrayal time and time again, and feels the pain, and sheds the tears because of the pain she re-lives. There is a deep cry coming from within her being that is actually requesting, ASKING to be betrayed! 

The Universe does not discriminate. It hears the vibrational request because a human being is focusing thought and emotional currency into - in this case - being betrayed. And the answer is YES. It is always yes. Our subconscious Mind cannot accept “not” or “won’t” … it accepts the thought … in a positive light … and delivers. It is based on image, or picture graphics. You cannot draw a picture of someone NOT swimming. They are either swimming, or doing something else. In this same way, the subconscious Mind and Universe cannot deliver to you ... something that you DON’T want.

The more we think about war … the more war we get. Think about PEACE, and in that way we can eradicate war by manifesting peace instead.

Scripture, in Philippians 4:8 says “take every thought captive” and to “... think/meditate on things that are pure, lovely and of a good report.” There is good reason for this. 

If you are focusing on betrayal for example, you are actually sending a detailed plea for more of the same. You must cease focusing on betrayal and begin focusing on loyalty and integrity in order to receive it. 

Albert Einstein said: “The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over again, but expecting different results.”

Don’t like where you are? Don’t like the ways things are? Then change your thinking. 

Dr. Wayne Dyer said “Change The Way You Look At Things And The Things You Look At Change”. 

If we truly grasp the mechanics of creation, then we will maintain our focus on GOOD things. Focusing on things we deem as evil/bad will attract more of it to us, and we will ultimately receive whatever it is that we “ask” for ... good, or un-good. 

The reason that so many people focus on the negative things is because we have an ego that recognizes right and wrong, good and evil. “The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.” We must remove this wrong thinking ruler from the throne of our humanity, and let the ego be a servant to us rather than a master of us.

KARMA AND OUR THOUGHTS

KARMA AND OUR THOUGHTS

When we have good, positive, and productive thoughts ... everyone will benefit from their manifestation including our self. When we have less than good thoughts, everyone will suffer from the effects of their manifestation. Benefits versus consequences. 

This is the Rule of Cause and Effect ... or what we could call "Karma." Now, despite popular belief that Karma is punishment for something you may have done in a previous life, Karma is actually an ancient Sanskrit word and principle that simply means "doing." Therefore, what we experience in our lives ... is our doing. This goes for positive and negative results.

We must also consider group Karma, or race Karma. This means that not only are we subject to the effect of our own cause(s), we are also subject to the effect of what other(s) cause. This is why it is imperative that we guard the gate of our Mind and we pay careful attention to our actions. What we think, say, and do; not only affects us ... but other. In fact ... the entirety of the world. 

To better understand this connection, we need to understand that the universe is not made up of “things” but rather, it is the only thing. All else, is an individualized essence of the whole. You can look at it as you would a high-rise office building. There is only one building, and within it there are multiple compartments comprising the entirety of the complete structure. So, if someone were to start a fire somewhere in the building, it affects the whole thing ... and everyone in it. There is no separate office. It is an individualized essence of the whole thing.

So with this example in mind, it becomes easier to understand that what we do to “other” ... we actually do to ourselves. In reality, there is no “other” ... there is only ONE. That ONE thing ... is our Universe, Life, Absolute, God, Source, or whatever your belief system chooses to call it. There are no separate things. All things are joined by the seen, and by the unseen. A fish is one with the water. Every one of us on this planet breathe the same air, stand on the same ground, are part of the entire ecosystem, and are joined as one by molecules, atoms, neurons, electrons, protons, etc ... We hear the same sounds, see the same nature, smell the same scents, etc. To take it even further, all that we sense is a projection from WITHIN our collective consciousness. 

We are ONE but we believe that we are separate individuals. The Truth is you are me, I am you ... and we are the universe. We are not born INTO this world ... we are born OUT of it. As a leaf is born from a branch, and the branch from the tree, and the tree from the root, and the root from the seed. All has one point of origin. And because this existence began as ONE, it remains as one. The universe and everything that is part of it cannot be byted out. Water is water and no matter where you find it, it still has the same source and contains all that its source elements contain. 

Now that you know WHY all is one and one is all, you can begin to understand how important just one single thought-form is to the entire universe and all that is a part of it. Think wisely, and one day, we may actually be able to experience unity, harmony, and peace on earth and beyond. Guard your thoughts and actions. They will affect everyone, everywhere. 

Just a thought ...
