    In the highest parts of our consciousness, there is a living relationship whose meaning is inseparable from the world that it sees and experiences. There is no need to "take thought" in order to know that we are alive. To think for ourselves properly means to be aware of our reactions to the world, and to not allow those reactions to run wild on their own...

    Just as our bodies grow healthy or not, according to what we take into our mouths, so too do we grow into wisdom, strength, or grace according to what we attend to with our mind. Our thoughts, like all energetic life forms, attract to themselves natures like themselves. The thoughts of a fellow not only flock together, but seek and are sought out by similar invisible creatures...

    Outgrowing the problems created in the way we think begins with realizing the need to not only understand the nature of these invisible building blocks known as our thoughts, but to be able to peer into the structure of the invisible world these same thoughts create.

    How much time and energy and breath would we save if we were aware of the part of us that wants to speak before it starts speaking? Much of the talking that we do is brought about by an unconscious nature that compels us to speak so that it can experience more of itself. By observing ourselves we can catch the anxious part of us that demands we say something in order to relieve the pressure.

    Wanting to be free of anything because it troubles you is a form of ambition, because the assumption behind the ambition is that I have the power and the authority to shut this down. And you have neither power nor authority - what you have is a small gift from God that will allow you to see what ambition does to tear apart your soul.

    Each and every one of us is given a very particular essence, a very distinct quality that we bring into this life with us that is intended to be developed and integrated during our life. Although we ourselves are not the creators of our essence, our responsibility is to do the work that the Divine has given us, which is to attend to its development.

    The touch of God often comes in the form of a disturbance, which is meant to bring us into presence where we can be a part of real life and change. But if you hear these three words you'll know that you've been handed off to negativity instead, where real change is impossible!

    The divine expresses its infinite being in every creature he makes. If I can see that expression and attend to it, I am then the conscious reflection of that creation. I know an aspect not just of myself in that moment, but of the divine itself. And in this way I become self-realized.

    When you start to understand that there is a nature within that has no interest in "doing the good" then a real and right struggle begins within you, and now instead of hating yourself for your weakness, you know what your work is.

So, here's a key thought to help you release this self-wrecking inner state: Holding onto some hurt or hatred -- over what someone may have done to you in the past - makes you that person's slave in the here and now.

    Bound up as we are within the closed world of our own thoughts, we see virtually nothing other than what the false self of the moment wants us to see. By contrast, in real life, everything is new.
