Wholeness / Oneness

To be able to touch and appreciate what is new, we are created to open up and, as needed, to let go of whatever is no longer useful... especially when it comes to our need to release those old feelings and worn out thoughts that first clog up, and then compromise, our hearts and minds. These tiresome states of ourselves have become "stuck" within us because we haven't learned how to release th...

Real hope for the world begins with discovering what it takes to become a new human being, because when you are no longer who you were, but rather the new person that you have been meant to be all of your life, then all of those things that were connected with who and what you once were, cease to be the whole of you. Which means that every single one of your relationships has changed, even if...

Our current nature thinks it can add something to Life. When we see a beautiful scene in nature, or hear glorious music, we know that there is no need to add one thing to it. Our task is to discover that all we will ever need is already within us right now, and that to do what I am doing with my full attention is to be connected to the present moment that is a living Wholeness.

Whenever we find ourselves in some "unwanted" part of ourselves, perhaps reliving an old heartache or caught in the throes of some irrepressible anger, old fear, or unyielding worry, part of this unwanted moment includes our certainty that we're trapped in this condition. And compounding our confusion over feeling ourselves captive in this way are all of the attending negative inner voices. Th...

Question: A shift in consciousness is predicted and needed on our planet. What do you think this shift will be and what will it bring? Answer: First of all, it is not a global shift. Even though there may be global instances and I'm not going to discount the possibility of that. The true shift is the shift in we as individuals. And the shift in individuals, unfortunately, at this poin...

There is no greater feature that we human beings have than the presence of a living Light within us whose very nature knows what is its own and what is not its own... because when at last we let go of all that is not our own -- all the mistaken conclusions, and the painful contusions they cause as we anxiously search to remedy what ruins us -- we find that we already have everything...

The following short set of questions and answers is taken from one of the special sections that end each chapter in Guy Finley's newest book, Let Go and Live in the Now: QUESTION: Whenever I read or spend time pondering truthful things I often feel as though nothing in the world can bring me down. In those moments I am the conqueror of all that had overcome me only minutes before. Can y...

A great poem, a timeless stanza of thought, a true writing that stirs and swells the heart; what are these precious forms save a moment of Love plucked from Time to stand as testimony to a perfection briefly remembered as the living foundation of all things. The poet is presented the proposal, the moment where the Great Pain beckons him to marriage. He is awakened from a slumber to answer th...

We must not fear these wild pulsations of hope-filled feelings too deep to hold... for they have an accord with themselves, and their own path to follow. These sometimes too strong stirrings of that unbearable wish for a compassion that can embrace all of creation must not be dampened simply because we don't understand the pressing of their presence in us. They are not asking us to know what...

If you know the content of your own heart ... If you can be consciously aware of this condition ... Then you not only know the secret contents Of the heart of everyone else you meet, But you also know that there is no difference Between you and all of these "others" In the realization of this undivided life You are given the Grace of knowing That God is one ... And that each one...

The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who passing over a certain ridge comes upon an unknown Mountain outside his country and there catches a glimpse of a valley within a valley..

In all the worlds above and below there is but One Balance. This perfect equipoise is not God Himself, but the expression of His Life in the uncreated form of three forces unified. Balance is that indefinable third force where what pushes and what pulls are neither one nor the other, but a force transformed into a wholly new potential. This fully alive, ever active Supreme Stasis is the hidd...
