THE PATH TO EMPOWERMENT, Day 5 Reconnecting to our true Self! Deepok Chopra

Day 5 — Reconnecting Here and Now     When our consciousness is settled and centered, we are living in the now and are connected to our power and strength. But when we are tired, stressed, and anxious, we can easily get out of balance and feel cut off from our power. In today’s meditation, we learn how to recognize when have lost touch with our inner strength and balance, and discover how we can reconnect. We see that by to returning to present awareness, we gain access to empowerment, balance, ease, and effectiveness.

Our centering thought for today is: When I reconnect, I am the best version of myself.

“The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.” — Thich Nhat Han

Day 4 — The Most Powerful Force in the World We tend to think powerful people have forceful personalities with strong egos and a confident self-image. But self-images are only perceptions of our self, not the real self. So simply working on changing your self-image from weak and disempowered to strong and powerful is only changing your mask. In today’s meditation, we understand and experience the genuine power and fulfillment that comes from living in the present. It is by living in the now that the strength of our real self shows its true nature, and life proceeds gracefully, joyfully, and harmoniously. LOG IN TO MEDITATE Our centering thought for today is: Every moment is an open door to fulfillment. “Never worry about anything. Live in the present. Live now. Be happy.” — Marsilio Ficino Day 3 — Power Begins with Clarity  In today’s meditation, we explore the connection between self-awareness and empowerment. When we believe our identity is defined by our changing bodies and transitory thoughts and feelings, then our foundation of power and strength will always be weak. However, in clearly knowing that our true nature is unlimited present awareness, we have the unbounded power of Nature to support our body, mind, and feelings in every endeavor. With the clarity of self-knowledge we have the power to transform our life. LOG IN TO MEDITATE Our centering thought for today is: I am clear that anything is in my power to change. “We should not fret for what is past, nor should we be anxious about the future; men of discernment deal only with the present moment.” — Chanakya Day 2 — Being Powerful Is a Choice  The power we use in our lives is based on a choice. But it’s not an ego choice of “I want this and not that.” In today’s meditation, we learn that the real choice of empowerment is to live in the present moment, or not. This is a different kind of choice than we are used to. The decision to live in the now means we consciously, knowingly recognize that awareness is our true nature, instead of ignoring that truth. When we see our self as a separate ego, trying to get power to make us happy, we will always feel weak inside. When we are self-aware in the present moment, we are connected to the infinite power of creation, and feel the confidence and strength that comes with having the support of the universe within us. LOG IN TO MEDITATE Our centering thought for today is: I choose to live from the level of my true self. “There is only one time that is important – now! It is the most important time because it is the only time when we have any power.” — Leo Tolstoy Day 1 — Self-Empowerment Is Yours to Awaken  Welcome to our 21-Day Experience, The Path to Empowerment. Today we begin our journey to discover the unlimited power within all of us. We will explore the many different types of inner power and how we can utilize them to actualize our inherent potential and fulfill our desires for a healthier, happier, and more loving life. The power within our Being is the full power of the universe, and we can access and use this energy in all aspects of our life – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. In today’s meditation, we understand that the source of power is not outside of us. Real strength is not brute force, intimidation, or physical dominance. That is a limited, fear-based kind of power. True power is the unbounded, creative, nurturing force of Nature that expresses itself through our innermost awareness – our empowered self. LOG IN TO MEDITATE Our centering thought for today is: I am awakening to the unlimited power of the self. “Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.” — Martin Luther King, Jr.

AMAZING ILLUMINATED BEINGS

THE AMAZING LIVING BEINGS
OUR HOUSE IS A SINGLE FIELD, CLEAN, VAST AND LUSTROUS, CLEARLY SELF-ILLUMINATED.
WHEN THE SPIRIT IS VACANT WITHOUT CONDITIONS, WHEN AWARENESS IS SERENE WITHOUT COGITATION, THEN BUDDHAS AND ANCESTORS APPEAR AND DISAPEAR TRANSFORMING THE WORLD. AMID LIVING BEINGS IS THE ORIGINAL PLACE OR NIRVANA.
HOW AMAZING IT IS THAT ALL PEOPLE HAVE THIS BUT CANNOT POLISH IT INTO BRIGHT CLARITY IN DARKNESS UNAWAKENED, THEY MAKE FOOLISHNESS COVER THEIR WISDOM AND OVERFLOW.
ONE REMEMBRANCE OF ILLUMINATION CAN BREAK THROUGH AND LEAP OUT OF THE DUST OF KALPAS. RADIANT AND CLEAR WHITE, THE SINGLE FIELD CANNOT BE DIVERTED OR ALTERED IN THE THREE TIMES, THE FOUR ELEMENTS CANNOT MODIFY IT.
SOLITARY GLORY IS DEEPLY PRESERVED,  ENDURING THROUGH OUT ANCIENT AND PRESENT TIMES, AS THE MERGING OF SAMENESS AND DIFFERENCE BECOMES THE ENTIRE CREATION'S MOTHER.THIS REALM MANIFESTS THE ENERGY OF THE MANY THOUSANDS OF BEINGS, ALL APPEARANCES MERELY THIS FIELD'S SHADOWS.
TRULY EMBODY THIS REALITY.

TRUE WEALTH

TRUE WEALTH

True wealth is not measured in money or status or power. It is measured in the legacy we leave behind for those we love and those we inspire.

CESAR CHAVEZ(gratefulness.org)

BASIC WEALTH:

OUR "basic wealth", is that "we already have everything we need. Thanks Jax for this outstanding post from 4 years ago.                               WE ALREADY HAVE everything we need. There is no need for self-improvement. All these trips that we lay on ourselves—the heavy-duty fearing that we’re bad and hoping that we’re good, the identities that we so dearly cling to, the rage, the jealousy and the addictions of all kinds—never touch our basic wealth. They are like clouds that temporarily block the sun. But all the time our warmth and brilliance are right here. This is who we really are. We are one blink of an eye away from being fully awake...
