Work Smarter and Harder

Somewhere along the line the desire for achievement without effort came into play. “Smarter not harder” became a kind of motto. Nowhere is this more evident than in many of the metaphysical theories of manifestation that suggest that no physical action need to be implemented when the right mind set is in place. Ironically what actually needs to be injected into this mix is a healthy dose of “smart”. The truth of the matter is that “smart” h

The Essence of Meditation

Meditation is the practice of realization.nnIn the beginning it seems that we are developing concentration, objectivity, visualization and certain perceptions - whatever the focus of our meditation is. With practice we come to understand that these states have always been there. There has always been a concentrated mind, an objective mind, a mind capable of perceiving the spiritual dimensions. What we are actually doing is removing the illusions of the mind that prevent us fr

The Shape Of The Soul

The Soul creates its memories and perceptions of time and space through spiral and fractal forms and shapes.nnIt is these shapes and forms that are also known as the “Soul Journey” because it is by moving the physical body into these alignments that the memories of the Soul are revealed.nMemory is created when these forms connect and interact with matter, energy and consciousness.nnThe Soul becomes infused with these forms and shapes, its memory is created and so

The Zero Point

The zero point is a state of consciousness where no distance exists. This means that the beginning exists within the end, awareness exists with ignorance and power exists with impotence. The reason that this state is so powerful is due to the fact that healing, manifestation and empowerment can occur instantly. There is no pause between here and there, because here and there exist in the same point.nnFor all things to exist in the same point is to mean that all things are one

Destroying Apathy

The battle within the self is between apathy and purpose. Apathy kills purpose. Purpose kills apathy. Apathy is a terrible and poor companion for life, business or romance.nnWhy anyone would choose it deliberately is ludicrous. It is only when we seek to avoid effort that we find reasons to justify apathy’s apparent control over us. It is mediocre at making excuses, but even less satisfactory at creating inspiration or meaning. There is not much going for it really. Its

Meditation Mastery

Meditation is the practice of understanding. It is training the mind and the body to observe and gain knowledge about specific energies and aspects of consciousness. As the body and mind becomes familiar with the language of these energies, a communication is realized and formed. This communication is the catalyst to understanding.nnOften understanding is perceived to merely mean intellectual realizations. In truth understanding can be defined as ‘knowing.’ It is

From Stagnation To Motivation

Breathing is one of the easiest ways to bring change to the energy of stagnation and apathy. Breathing elicits a physical movement through the body, consciousness of actual movement and flow - which is of course the opposite of stagnation.nnWork with this exercise:nnBreathe in slowly and deeply. Imagine yourself breathing from your stomach area. Of course we donât actually breath from the stomach but allowing the muscles there to initiate the movement of the diaphragm is wh

Chakra Balancing

nThe chakras are portal or structures which help to channel and integrate subtle energies into the physical body. The body has 7 primary chakras but over 2000 secondary ones which help to direct and hold the integrity of our 3 main elements – mind, body and spirit. Since the flow of this triad is always shifting, directed by our intent and consciousness, so too must the chakra system recalibrate and find new points of balance which each shift. In other words, just as ou

Dedicated Spirituality

Dedicated spirituality is living spirituality. This means that abilities and skills are honed and refined continuously in daily life. Dedicated spirituality means revolving the rest of our lives around our spiritual practice and not the other way around. It is not for everyone, just as becoming an Olympic athlete is not for everyone, but achieving high levels of ability in any field will always require dedication.nnThe path of dedication will leave many of us behind. It will

Real Manifestation

Manifestation is creation. It encompasses all that we create, from a single thought, to a breath, footstep or dollar. For each creation there is a transformation of energy, there is expenditure, destruction and creation of form. These days in metaphysical circles it is becoming popular to think of manifestation as existing without needing to expend any effort at all. There has become such a separation between body and mind, that people believe that if any physical effort or a

How to Realize Life Purpose

At itâs heart Life Purpose is about feeling. We are seeking to find that which gives us the feeling of meaning, reason and purpose. This is the reason why two people can duplicate the same external experiences and yet not attain the same inner experience. We must look within for what truly resonates with us as purpose. We must begin with listening to what makes us as individuals feel purposeful.nnIt begins with knowing desire.nnBy listening to what it is that we desire we w

The Power of Destruction

Destruction is the cleansing aspect of the transformation cycle. It is a changing of the old that makes room for the new. Spiritual destruction flows from universal consciousness and is integrated into our actions and intent by the way that we would choose to evolve ourselves and the planet that we interact with.nnThere has not been a single consciousness on this planet that sought change that did not also embrace destruction.nnGautama the Buddha created destruction when he c
