Sixty- One; Becoming The Comptroller Of Your Destiny, In The Time Of The Coronavirus

    Mind  is the creator of everything. You should therefore guide it to create only good. If you cling to a thought with dynamic willpower, it finally assumes an outward tangible form. When  you are able to employ your will always for constructive purposes, you become the comptroller of your destiny.

    Paramahansa Yogananda, "The Law Of Success"

Sixty; Finding The Imagination To Improvise, In The Time Of The Coronavirus

 

“And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.”
― Sylvia Plath

       Do not fear in this time of hardships. Listen to Your Hearts Desire and use your imaginative powers to create your success. Anything that you can imagine or dream can be made a reality. All the norms of society and life as you have known them have been altered by the times you are now living in. Going forward from today you are the author of your own life. Do not allow the world to dictate how you will live your new life in it. The old norms have been shattered, closed, dismantled, or disappeared in the chaos of the Pandemic. It is up to you to define the terms of which you will conduct yourself by. Be strong, fearless in your determination to control your own destiny in the new times. 

Fifty-Nine; Overcoming Trials, InThe Time Of The Coronavirus

      “Your trials did not come to punish you, but to awaken you – to make you realize that you are a part of Spirit and that just behind the sparks of your life is the Flame of Infinity.” Paramahansa Yogananda

     Trials abound all around us at this time. They are ever pervasive and daunting. They cannot be allowed to become part of your ether. You must use everything at your disposal to block negative energy from yourself and your environment. Cleansing and clearing negative energy and brining positive and healing energy can be accomplished by smudging your space and self. It is an ancient art and will help you to clear your environment.

    Meditate deeply on positive thoughts and read literature by enlightened masters. Remember that this is a new reset. Preconceived ideas about how things are now are archaic. No longer live under the veil of maya. Step out into the light and join those that are working for the greater good of the world and society as a whole. These are new times and will some day be referred to as the Pandemic Reformation or the Great Renaissance after the Coronavirus. Be a leader of the movement and not a follower. The times make the Leader. The opportunity to have a Lead Walk On Part In The Greatest Show the world has ever seen is yours for the taking. Do not be a shrinking violet. Step up grab the brass ring and command your future. We are and we will not falter. I hope you will join us. May God Bless You and Keep You Well through these times.

     

Fifty-Eight; Conquering The Thin Edge of Existence, In The Time Of The Coronavirus

      May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.

Edward Abbey

     Do not follow a path, go instead and leave a trail. An old saying that has been quoted for time in memorial. The quote that has always drawn my attention is the Beaten Path is for Beaten People. Be a pioneer in life. Climb your own mountains and choose your own routes. For me writing has always been a double edged sword. It is my passion and my nemesis. To write one must be sedentary and face a blank page or a computer screen. The quote that has always helped me is In The Mountains Nature Draws A Razors Thin Edge of Existence. If You Accept It And Step Over It You Must Conquer It Or It Will Forever Conquer You. Move forward in your path toward the culmination of your trail. Writing a blog helps me write. My Collection of stories is being submitted. My blogs make me sit and compose and write. It has allowed me to complete writing projects and ideas and stories and novels have abounded in my mind and on my pages. Meditating regularly clearing my mind and thoughts striving for a greater purpose in life has allowed for the transformation from talking about completing my writing and meditations. If you don't know how to meditate or are not sure how to begin. The Self Realization Lessons are a wonderful place to start. The Autobiography Of A Yogi changed my life in ways that were incomprehensible to me at the Time.

    

Fifty-Seven, Proper Living; In The Time Of The Coronavirus

 

     I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
JACK LONDON

     Living in the time of coronavirus is more than challenging when your world is shut down and closed off. However working on ones own betterment and self awareness is tantamount to preservation. You must better yourself and your environment in every way possible both physically and mentally. Nothing in the world comes without effort. When we are free to move forward the world will need strong well organized individuals and groups to help us rebuild. We are all in this together and only by working hard with one another will we be able to rebuild. Take care of yourself and your world and our world will become a better place because of it!

     

Fifty-Six, Actions And It's Unifying Priciples; In The Time Of Coronavirus

  “No action is ever an isolated event. Always, it invites from the universe a reaction that corresponds exactly to the type and the force of energy behind the deed.” Paramahansa Yogananda

     Actions have consequences, it might be actions that you have initiated or actions that have been initiated against you. There is an accounting. It can be suddenly and swift or timely and drawn out. Believe that it does occur. This is a certainty in the universe. Everything in this world is organized and accounted for. We may believe or be told that it is a random collage of events but it is a false hood to believe this. You have a higher power and all things are accounted for. It is a great gift and solace once that you realize that this is and absolute truth of existence. You can live assured that you are being cradled in the hands of a loving father or mother, which ever you would like to believe. Believe it. It is real and it is everlasting. All things in this world change. No matter what your situation is Today it is only today's. Tomorrow is a new day unto itself with a world of opportunity before you. Today well lived to it's fullest will make the new dawn of hope a reality for you. Do not despair in these desperate days and times. All things are possible for those that believe. 

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