Fifty-Five, Blazing Your Own Trail; In The Time Of The Coronavirus

 “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”



There are many sayings involving your path in life. All of which contain a pearl of wisdom regarding your choices as to how to find your way. Find that which motivates you and would provide you with your greatest satisfaction in life. Live life for the betterment of yourself and others. Serve humanity in way the uplifts spirits and in turn your spirit and life will be uplifted.
Do not be obligated to follow the maddening crowd for they often are mindless followers. Be of your own mind and fortitude. You create your own destiny in life by your actions or inactions. Set your sights on the accomplishments of far reaching goals and work daily toward the achievement of them. The beaten path is truly for beaten people!

Fifty-Four, Attuning Your Will To Divine Will; In The Time Of Coronavirus


      If we allow our will to be led by the wisdom of a master, whose will is led by God's, the master then seeks to guide our will in such a way that we travel swiftly on the road back to divinity. The chief difference between a worldly man and a saint is that the wise man has attuned his will to the Divine Will.  Rajarsi Janakananda: "Great Western Yogi"


     Everything in Life is obtained from the Divine. Man's will is errant if not tuned to the Divine. You must align your will with a master. It is said that when you are ready for the master, one will come to you. Do not delay on your path to your self-realization. The rewards are great and the path narrow and difficult. It does not mean that one should not aspire for it. Masters appear when the chela is ready for them. It does not mean that you need to seek a Spiritual Master. It may be in the form of a Mentor, business, personal, writing, sports, or health. Be open in this time of great change and awakenings. Do not be of a narrow mindset. Great change is not without great effort. Is your future worth it?

Fifty-Three, Accomplishing Great And Heroic Deeds Through Great And Heroic Thoughts; In The Time Of Coronavirus

 

     “Nurture your mind with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes.”

Benjamin Disraeli

     We have said in the past and need to restate the premise. In order to accomplish great deeds, one must first dream of accomplishing them. You must be willing to step up be heard and be counted as one who is willing to attempt heroic deeds. Why should I? You say. Do we really want to be the society that sits back and watches the fall of the American Empire? Our cornerstone of survival must be our words through books, blogs, letters and speaking. Silence can no longer be accepted. We must protest the very stealing of our Nation and our Liberties. While I believe in Civil Disobedience, I do not believe in violence as a means to the ends of social change. Social Change can be achieved through peaceful protests and Social Education of the masses. Nothing can be accomplished if we continue to hide our heads in the sands and allow others to make our important decisions in our lives.
     The Great Thoughts and Great Deeds are the Foundation of a Great Nation. Stand up and again be We The People. Hope you join us!

Fifty-Two, Opening The Portals Of Limitations, In The Time Of The Coronavirus;

 

     With the opening of the New Year, all the closed portals of limitations will be thrown open and I shall move through them to vaster fields, where my worthwhile dreams of life will be fulfilled. Behold, through the gates of the New Year, the distant variegated decorations of future achievements glimmering at you and daringly luring you to give pursuit. Simply watching them with the hope of accomplishment will not count. You must start racing calmly at top speed, performing miracles of greater speed on the way, armed with divine determination against the robbers of mental and physical idleness, lack of creative ability, doubt, fear, despondency, and bad habits.” 

--- Paramahansa Yogananda, "Self-Realization Magazine"

     Strive to be like the butterfly emerging from it's cocoon and greeting a strange new wonderful world. All life changes and grows before your eyes. Open your heart and your mind to new and fascinatingly extravagant dreams for your loved ones and yourself. We are all emerging from the darkness into a new period of light and divine cooperative being as explained by Swami Sri Yuketswar Giri in The Holy Science. It is time for all religions to set aside differences and work together for our planetary survival, well being and health. It is a goal well worth reaching for in the New Year. Be gone the old mindset and archaic beliefs. Be open to the change of The Renaissance that is before us. We are moving into a period of tremendous new awarenesses. Be vigilante of the fraudulent archetype deceivers they abound since the opening of Pandora's Box. The good will win out and we will once again move toward attitudes of sharing, caring, help, and love. The evil that has pervaded the world will once again be driven from our ether. Let us Hope the Veil of Maya will no longer cloud our leaders minds and shroud the future of us as a Society. We by enlightening ourselves shall be the beacons for the Children, to usher in a Brave New World!
