Mental Technology is Phenomenal


Mental technology, is phenomenal. This  particular 40-minute video highlights a method offered by FinerMinds and MindValley including Silva Mind Method. 

For those groups or individuals who have a sincere interest in taking a closer look at quantum mental technologies, and mental tools and techniques, I am arranging my schedule now for Fall 2012. Contact me at Ethel@LivingSpiritIam.org for consultations.

Do The Twenty Twelve Delve! Happy 2012

You may remember a dance from the 70's called "the Hustle", well intead of doing the Hustle let's do "The Twenty-Twelve Delve", that is,  do the "Delve into 2012's Infnite Possibilities" like never before. For sure, all kinds of things are happening and it's high time we started to live like never before. Included here are some basic guidelines for this dance of life, and once you have the basics - just like any other dance - take these guidelines and form and shape them into your own unique style.
  1. Release and Let Go of  that prior to 2012 which no longer works for your highest good. Do not spend valuable time uselessly trying to will-power these behaviors away; instead invest your time by replacing outdated thoughts and behaviors with what you want to see more of in your life. See the  kinds of experiences you truly desire in your mind's eye and keep them there as often as possible. 
  2. Know What You Believe! If your beliefs are wholesome and beneficial to you as well as harmless to others, then you will place trust in them and  they will guide your actions in a positive and productive direction. When we begin to see positive and productive movement in our lives, we feel a sense of accomplishment, value and worthiness. Others will willingly contribute.
  3.  Know Yourself and do what it takes to Believe in yourself. You and I are matriculating in this world for a greater purpose than meets the eye. Commit to doing the ongoing introspection and meditation necessary to know yourself honestly so that you can continue to radiate and move from a firm foundation based on truth, clarity and faith. 
  4. Dig Deeper and Focus your time, attention, effort and resources on activities, situations, places and people that invest in and support you and that which you value, rather than those offering a simple stroking of your ego. An ego boost is a quickie - a superficial and temporary pat on the head which requires continual stroking from something/someone outside of ourselves. When we are truly energized from within we begin to use our God-given talents, gifts and abilities to be all we are created to be. We become driven from meaning and purpose rather than from superficiality.  
  5. Do What You Can Do Now - Today! Yesterday is done, tomorrow is untold and Now is the gem. Utilize what you have and that which you have access. As we keep our feet moving we will see our projects grow and increase. We have all we need right now to begin, or continue our quest, or to pivot our direction. 
Happy delving into 2012's infinite possibilities. Delve into 2012 heartily! Delve into 2012 with intention.

Much Love, Joy, Peace & Abundance,
In the LivingSpirit I Am,
Ethel

Pretty Wings

Today I have been in deep thought while listening to music and celebrating life. Among many things, here are a few thoughts which came to my awareness.

Let your ego know that your God-Self is always in charge and is the Chief Executive with Authority, working in, through and as you. Tell the ego, 'fall back into your rightful place', as many times as necessary for the demonstration to take hold. 

Our Creative Source supplies and provides for the fulfillment of our innermost and original desires when the spiritual, mental, intellectual, emotional and physical aspects of our being operate in integrity through the Christ consciousness - our divine nature. As we pray, meditate, and sit in the silence, we work to stay aligned in the perspective of oneness with our Creative Source. As a result of dwelling in oneness; we begin a continual unfoldment of layers of authenticity which show forth more and more of our true, divine nature. We begin to take off, ascending into flight with only one goal in sight: that of expressing God for the sake of being who we were created to be. 

Knowing God as Love, Life and Light, let's take a hint from recording artist Maxwell who said, “let love set you free to fly your pretty wings around”. Stay aligned with the Love, Life, and Light within you and take flight.
Happy Independence Day!
In the Living Spirit I Am.

Go Within To Know


"To know the truth as so many words, quotations, passages, or theories is one thing; but it is an entirely different thing when through meditation, the Word takes root in our consciousness and comes forth as spiritual fruitage. We are told that the fruits of the Spirit are 'love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith.' It is really true that when the Spirit has been touched or when It has touched us, then the fruitage comes forth in the form of harmony, wholeness, completeness and perfection." ~ The Art of Meditation by Joel S. Goldsmith ~
In your own moment be still and know the one Almighty God for yourself, by whatever name you call God. In doing so, all areas of your life can be positively affected; according to your belief. In times of seeming need, one will not have to run to get a crystal, or oils, or any other material symbols. Instead we will release doubt and partake in the consciousness to "Be still and know that I am God" right here "within". Nobody can take that gift away from us but it must be practiced so that we renew our strength and gain confidence in It. It is our birthright; therefore we are hard-wired at origin to be still and know God within and as we do the fruits and activity of Spirit show forth.
Blissful Blessings,
In the Living Spirit,
Rev. Ethel

Alright!

The suggested song for upliftment today is “Alright” by Ledisi. Know it’s alright, whatever you may be encountering. Know that the Divine and Infinitely Intelligent Mind which is All-Powerful is at work and nobody can turn It off except each of us within our own thinking and feeling (our mental capacities). When we are holding onto the right thoughts in our mind, and in our images, and in our prayers, and in our actions to one another, and in our speech to one another then it’s going to be alright. Appearances and subsequent situations pass, but our holding power to right thoughts, right feelings, right words, right images, right actions is strengthened and multiplied in the substratum or the permanent substance of God: the Divine Mind within and all around us- everywhere present.

When we keep a diligent practice of the Presence; we quickly learn that all things are working together for our highest good. More and more every day we are learning to discern and clearly distinguish for ourselves just who and what to include in our experiences. Songstress Yolanda Adams told us years ago that “It’s already alright” but you and I have to keep doing the mental work to embody the essential ideas which then absolutely clothe and manifest the physical outpicturing.

Let’s know its Alright. Some of the "stuff" we’re allowing to occupy our mental screens are meaningless, non-beneficial, distractions leading to situations we do not want to experience. Let that which moves you to a better and higher expression occupy your thoughts and feel the love, the joy, the peace and the bliss that Divine Mind is always, providing for, to, and through each of us; each moment we allow ourselves to stop and know our true connection and identity. Divine MInd is creative and is always working Its creative power through us and It does so without ceasing, and without coaxing. It does so for the sake of loving for this is Its nature and it is also therefore our nature (if we but hold onto it).

Hm-m-m-m ... think about it. Could this be what "in the name of Jesus" means in our practical daily, person-to-person application? Hold onto the name (nature, character) of Love, Peace, Beauty, Joy, Harmony, Integrity, Order and all that is Holy and Divine.

It's Alright!

Go to YouTube and take a listen to Ledisi and Yolanda Adams.

Joy was made for all of us, not just a few.

Happiness is a choice. Choose Joy! Live well and be happy!

The Universe Is Calling


In my meditation this morning I heard: "All I can say is that I pray you catch this vision. My wish is that you be clean and clear to see and hear how to ex-press your divine destiny which includes your purposeful intent in this activity of life. May your dreams be realized not only for you but for the universe. "
Your and my (our) purpose are a part of the Divine Plan which encompasses the vastness of the greater good of the universe. We may not understand who our expression will touch nor how it touches; but that is truly the beauty of it all; because we have been given the spiritual, and mental tools and original raw materials to express, we are simply to do so, and that's that.

With Bless-ful intention,
Ethel in the LivingSpirit
