We Are All Meditating All The Time, So why not change your meditation to enhance your life?

Posted on by

Meditation is focus and we are constantly focusing on one thing or another.  So whether we realize it or not, we are always meditating. Our present world and everything in it is a result of our focus or our meditations.  When we say we want to learn how to meditate, we are actually saying we want to learn how to meditate in way that produces better results. These better results that we are looking for may be better health, greater success, a more relaxed harmonious life, or a deeper spiritual connection.  All of these things can be experienced, by simply shifting our focus.

Today’s Poetry (How?)

Posted on by

fb081-sun_and_sky_
How can I experience more peace and beauty in meditation?

How can I see what the great masters see?

How can I get answers to my questions magically showing up?

How can I find my purpose and my adventure as I move through life?

First you must change your walking meditation

What you think about all day long

The conversations you have when you go to speak

What we listen to and watch becomes our powerful focus

We don’t realize that we are meditating every single moment

Think about the magic of the Universe, and see it show up

See yourself as an artist and create a masterpiece

Talk to the Universe and ask “How do you want me to serve?”

Expect to get answers and watch them show up

Let go of needing to see them, and they seem to come rush your way

Hang out with the great masters, and see what they see

If you don’t know one, you can read their books

Everything you need is right here with you

You can chant the mighty Aum as you go go about your day

Know the Universe is with you and see the eternal everywhere

Be true to yourself and ask who am I?

Today’s Poetry (Show Me The Way)

Posted on by

cropped-fb081-sun_and_sky_.jpgSometimes I get a glimpses of where I am going

Where I am going to seems different to me

I see where the world is going and feel I don’t fit

I want to be there but not in the same way

I want to be there but not so caught up

So I ask for help to show me the way

I want to be there and true to myself

I want to share while I learn to how let go

I want to love and I want to be free

Can these two actions be practiced at once?

Once again I come for direction

And ask you once more to show me the way?

Positive Guru Reminder: There is a way of being that is truly our own. Sometimes we have to go to God and The Universe for the answers and and visions we need and know that they can show up, be it in meditation, a dream or in our world as we go through life. Don’t hesitate to take the time to go within and don’t make the mistake of thinking that your deeper visions are not possible.

Today’s Poetry (As I Sat There Analyzing)

Posted on by

51dbd-flowergarden4

As I sat there analyzing my dream
I could see it was built upon thoughts of the previous day
My words thoughts and actions came back to life
And I would not even see this if I thought it was all by chance

Realizing the harmony it was so amazing
As I live my life I create all the time
Whole new worlds that I travel into
Complete with new scenery in my dreams at night

So I asked myself what about this dream?
Where does it come from? From where is it built?
Is it any different from the ones I dream at night?
Or is this the night and those dreams the day?

In a flash of strange knowledge, I was told it’s the same
This day is a dream I myself have built
Based on thoughts and actions from the previous day
And the dreams that I have, when I sleep at night

Positive Guru Application: Pay attention to your focus. Keep your mind in a positive atmosphere. Your focus determines your actions and your thoughts, which also determine where you find yourself next.

Only make good deals, and you will find yourself in the best of situations (A Dream interpretation)

Posted on by

Question for Craig: I had a dream last night in which I was to be seated at a table with my Grandmother. My children were with me. I felt as though my Grandmother may oppose us being there with them, because we were of a lower class or caste. For a moment I felt bad and crunchy or somewhat inferior. I was telling my kids, “it is okay we are going to sit that table with them regardless of how they feel.” As I was coming out of the dream, I was thinking “My Grandmother would never feel that way about me. Why am I having this dream?”

When I woke up all I could think about was a job we had to do for one of my clients. I felt like I did not charge enough and was in a bad deal. Do you think this had anything to do with my dream?

Craig’s Answer: Yes absolutely. Our dreams reveal quite a bit about ourselves, and are often trying to teach us how to behave better in the future. The fact that your first thought was about this bad business deal says a lot. But the fact that this was your Grandmother in the dream also tells us that at times, you may place yourself in bad deals in your personal life also, where you struggle with feeling inferior. Not with your Grandmother. She was only a symbol. But perhaps in relationships with your wife and children, or with friends.

In the future, you must only make good deals in which you are feeling yourself valued. Doing this will change how you feel about yourself. You will be telling yourself and the Universe that you only deserve the best. The entire world will respond accordingly, and change how it responds to you. If you can do this, only make good deals, you will find yourself in the best of income situations, and personal relationships.

Today’s Positive Guru Application: Pay attention to how you deal with other people. All day long we are making deals. Only make good deals, being fair to the other party, but at the same time absolutely feel fair and good to you. Soon this will become a habit and you will be surprised at where you find yourself in business and in love.

Today’s Poetry (I Float On)

Posted on by

I don’t have to be on top

I can move through the crowd nice and slow

I don’t have to be in front

as long as I get where I need to go

I can flow with the Universe

and be open to where it wants to take me

If I can keep this attitude

I can move on I can move on

Don’t be surprised if you see me flying

If I truly learn to give I might float away

Don’t be surprised if you see me crying

But if you do they are tears of joy

I see her standing by the misstetoe

waiting on me to take her hand

And as I take my material joy

Can I still meditate and remain at one?

I guess you can say that my time has come

For me to dive in and take a swim

And as I freestyle and butterfly

I am thankful that I know these strokes

I float on

Positive Guru Application: As you go through your day, remember to be humble, and give. Good things will come your way. At the same time while doing so, by all means, jump into life and live fully. And as you live out your day and life to its fullest, and practice remaining humble, remember to continue to meditate for maximum peace and enjoyment.

Today’s Positive Poetry (With a little motivation and a strong heart)

Posted on by

40132-sun-and-sky-20143

With a little motivation and a strong heart, nothing can stand in your way.

Make it about those you are here to serve, and all worry and doubt goes out the window.

If your mind is on the ones you are here to serve, you will have energy and strength come from out of nowhere.

No one will understand your greatness, and how you can accomplish so much.

 

If you really want to learn the information will come.  Your prejudices and false teachings will be left way behind.

You won’t care from where it comes. You will move on the knowledge that comes your way

When you move on the knowledge, miracles arrive, and you are bewildered by what has just happened

You find yourself in the place to be, and a day may last a thousand years

 

When this happens life is great, you can’t imagine any other way

When it doesn’t something is missing, you know have to find your way back home

With a little motivation and a strong heart you will step back in the magical door

So focus on those you came to serve, and once again you can play your part

Today’s Positive Thought (What does it mean If the groundhog sees his shadow?)

Posted on by

What does it mean if the groundhog sees his shadow?

Who is Punxsutawney Phil?

So what does it mean if it is six more weeks of winter?

Why all the hoopla and ceremony in search of an early spring?

If the ground hog sees his shadow, we have six more weeks of winter.  This also means no early spring. It means more dark skies and colder weather.  It means winter boots and coats, and warm weather wishes.

Puxatony Phil is the groundhog who predicts the weather. Legend has it that if he sees his shadow there will be 6 more weeks of winter.  If he does not. there will be an early spring. In reality Phil is actually you and me, being the prognosticator of our own lives. If we see our shadow, we are too focused on ourselves, and our petty hopes, cares and worries.  If this is the case, life is much more difficult, and will feel a lot like winter.

Six more weeks of winter, means more of the same.  Metaphorically, it means we are stuck in our lives, not open to change, or focused on giving.  We have to let go of our shadow selves.

The hoopla and ceremony is a reminder.  Move back into the oneness.  Forget about yourself, embrace the moment.give, and just be. If you can do this there is no time for noticing your shadow.  And what do you know? You are instantly where you want to be.
