Day 36, Thankful Thursday, September 24, 2009

So, my first Thankful Thursday.

I was thinking for those who read this blog and are willing to participate, that we could take it to a different level. Some how, some way those willing to participate keep a list of everything you are grateful for during your waking hours on Thursday and then Friday, we compare numbers.

Like you keep a running total during the day. It could be as simple as if you think of something, you write a tick mark on a sheet of paper and keep track of your tick marks for the day. Let's not make it so labor and time intensive that no one will end up sticking with it.

You know many advanced spiritual writings mention that a spiritual Master pretty much gets to the place where there really is only one thing to say and that is "thank you".

And here is what might make "Thankful Thursday" a little more fun. Don't limit your list to things or people from your past or your present. Remember, technically there is no space of time. So, you can include things that you expect (you know, what if desires were simply future memories...memories of the future) or call them future memories.



P.S. I'm promoting currency cleansing and inspired giving. And, ho'oponopono. You can find out more by visiting my website, http://www.friendsofthelawofattraction.com

Thank you to everyone who reads my blogs and is inspired to participate on any level. I appreciate you and your time. Namaste.

Day 35, Wednesday, September 23, 2009

I appreciate all the feedback I receive from my blog posts. I had some positive feedback to my Tiara Tuesday post and a request to find out if I have anything else like that to share.

The answer is that I really didn't. However, it seemed once the question was asked, then something popped in my mind:

"Tell the Truth Thursday"

My inspiration was that as much as a person is able they identify them self on Thursday as simply the truth of who they are as seen in Divine Mind with Divine vision. You know, You, flowing and glowing with divine love well-being.

I also have a 40-day Laughing Buddha Fast that I am going to talk about in the next day or two.

I really like the idea of Tell the Truth Thursday.

It's just that a couple of minutes later the thought, "Thankful Thursday" popped in. Sort of had a ring to it. Later I remembered why. It's one of the things you are encouraged to tweet about on Thursdays for those of you who participate in the Twitterverse.

Maybe Friday could be False Friday sort of the reverse of Tell the Truth Thursday. Instead of really working on telling the truth, instead you pay special attention to all the things that come up in your awareness that are false according to the truth of who you are. When these moments appear in your awareness, you say the ho'oponopono prayer to clean your consciousness of this falsehood. And then at least three times during Friday you connect with Divine Love and mention, "Thank You, God, for restoring me to the perfection from which I emanated."

Okay, I think that is enough for now.

Thank you to everyone who reads my blogs and is inspired to participate on any level. I appreciate you and your time. Namaste.

Note to self. I want to ponder the following in a future blog: When I don't see you as your true identity, am I stealing from both of us? If I preassume anything about you except the truth of who you are.

Please read Day 24 before reading this.

I was just about free to do something else, when the thought popped in my head that when it comes to the "what if" channel or really just about anything, I would never be able to be a success with "what if" without the participation and ideas of many other of my brother and sister children of God.

This is my way of asking for help, inspiration or anything like that.

And this is a great place, I feel, to write for my memory of it and as a blessed way to share an experience I had.

On Sunset Blvd. in Pacific Palisades, California not far from the Pacific Coast Highway and the beach and ocean I love so much, is one of the Self-Realization's (SRF) places to visit. SRF was founded by Paramahansa Yogananda, the divine being who authored, Autobiography of a Yogi, and is credited with bringing yoga from India to the United States.

If you ever get the chance, (for it truly seems to be one of the most peaceful places on this planet at least that I've ever been to) please visit.

It was a annex lot for a film company before Parahamhansa Yogananda got it. He kept the authentic wind-mill style home that was on the lot and it has been turned into a sort of small church/place to meditate. On the altar are photographic likenesses of six different spiritual masters, including Jesus, the Christ. During visiting ours of the Lake Center you can go into this building and sit silently and pray, meditate, contemplate, "what if", whatever.

I love to go there to either meditate or feel like I am in a Master Mind group with these spiritual masters, as I understand that the Higher Self part of each of us is a peer with these spiritual masters.

During one of our Master Mind sessions, I was really getting into feeling it and feeling appreciation for them and their sharing, etc., and for all the ways they have helped teach me and guide me on my spiritual path.

There is a part of me that feels that because my Higher Self is a peer and is a part of me and even with the flowing and glowing with well-being thing, that I am already flowing and glowing with Divine Love well-being and so I am in the process of restoration as opposed to becoming something I am not yet.

Of course, maybe I'm making it all up. Like Dr. Hew Len mentions "do we really have definitive answers?".

Still, as I was thanking them for all their help, I swear I heard them telling me how much they appreciated me and it was their honor, as well. This hadn't really occurred to me before. They went on to share that they can't teach (be the master) without students. That it is inspiring to the teacher to feel like they are making a difference with what they teach.

Later as I thought about it, think about it, Facebook would be a useless nothing if there weren't all the facebook friends utilizing it. Same with Twitter. Same with the internet. Same with life. Same with love.

I mean I know LOVE IS. Still, I think about the ocean and breathing. It flows in and flows out. What if it always flowed in? OR What if it always flowed out? Same with giving and receiving. We put so much emphasis on giving. And I understand that the vibe with giving is that you have something to give which implies a vibrations of having/wealth. Still, "what if" we were all only givers. Who would be there to receive?

Anyway, all of this in an effort to make my case that I really, really would be so appreciative for help with currency cleanse, inspired giving and the "what if" channel. Even if it means you simply know someone who might be able to help and you pass this on to them.

Thank you. I love you.
