You face choices at every moment of your life. A choice can evoke feelings of great agony or great bliss. There is power and energy in every choice you make. I personally believe that choice is our most powerful gift. When you take care in choosing, your choice can be more in tune with your needs and the needs of those around you, and that’s the best part of any choice. Isn't it?
When do you begin choosing? What do you choose? How and why do you choose it? What happens after you make a choice? Have you ever felt that there are too many choices? Not enough choices? What are the consequences of your choices? What people, things, wants, needs, beliefs, values influence your choices? Was the choice made in your conscious or subconscious?
You face the choice between your view of good and evil, or this and that, at every step of your life. Sometimes that choice causes deep conflict and agony in your life. What is good? What is evil? How do you know? Who told you? Have you studied or researched the source(s)? Is it fact or fiction? How do you prove it? What values can you rely upon in choosing your particular beliefs or way of life?
Consider this: The present moment is the moment of choice AND the moment of interpretation. Your choices, in this moment, create the exte
al events that you are experiencing. What you choose to perceive and interpret creates your life stories. You are the source of both the choice AND the interpretation.
Your life is the result of your choices. And when you accept that your choices have consequences, pleasurable and painful, you will find that the actions resulting from your choices create energy that returns to you in like kind.
You can choose to control your choices, but you do not have control over the consequences. Ask yourself: “What are the consequences of this choice on me and those around me?” Feel the choice in your heart. How does it feel? If it feels right, then go for it. If it feels uncomfortable, then let it go.
Be happy or be sad. Be defeated or be empowered. Be angered or be joyful. Be dim or be enlightened. Be loved or be hated. The choice is always yours to make.

About the Author
In his role as coach, teacher and healer, David Cain utilizes his background in meditation, multi-sensory energy therapies, reiki, reflexology, Yoga, and Ayurveda to help expand the rapidly growing field of holistic medicine. As a certified instructor and student of Deepak Chopra, M.D., and David Simon, M.D., at the Chopra Center for Well-Being, David Cain is practicing and teaching the art of creating health.
David offers integrated body, mind, and spirit consultations. These consultations address a person’s health concerns from a physical, emotional and spiritual perspective. Integrating the theoretical frameworks of Ayurveda and modern science, these sessions focus as much on the person who is facing a health challenge as the health challenge being faced.
During a typical evaluation, David takes a complete personal lifestyle history and look at the body both as a physical system as well as a field of intelligence, reflecting the needs and choices of a person’s life. Based upon this assessment, a personalized body, mind, spirit health-enhancing prescription is formulated, including recommendations on diet, stress management, exercise, emotional healing, nutritional and herbal supplements, and sensory modulation.
If you are facing a condition that you believe can be influenced by your perceptions, interpretations or lifestyle choices, a body, mind, and spirit consultation can help you become an active, empowered partner in your healing process.

Who is a True Guru? How to choose a Spiritual Guru?
Grave danger in uprooting a Guru Do not accept a known guru as guru, and if you do, then do not turn your back on him. Use a pot if you do not like him. The pot will not have any problems.

How can one understand all this? Questioner: At the time we make someone our guru, he appears to be very good, he

What is the importance of Living Guru?
Questioner: If we surrender to the great souls that lived thousands of years ago, can that be considered surrender? Can we make any progress through such surrender or do we need to surrender to a living great man? Dadashri: You can progress even through Paroksha (indirectly- one not currently living). However if you find such a living (Pratyaksh) person, then your liberation will be instant. The indirect approach will give you the benefit of progress but there is no liberatio
