He is well known for his inspirational quotes on the nature of reality, and the path to success and fulfillment.

Below are 15 of the most inspiring quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I hope you enjoy them!

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

2. To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.

An Invitation to Outgrow Your Limitations

By Guy Finley

Are you inviting limitations? Have you ever noticed how the more negative you get, the more difficult everything about your life becomes, including being able to do the simplest things? It’s like suddenly sinking into dark molasses, where not only can’t you move, but everything you don’t want seems stuck to you!

To the spiritually uninitiated, it feels as if you’ve been dropped into a river of resistance but, in truth, you are being pulled into it by a lower level of self that wants you to look at whatever challenges you in life as an adversary. Its attempt at deception – to negatively alter your perception – is the only power it has to keep you from seeing unwanted moments as they are in reality: an invitation from the Divine to outgrow your present limitations. Regardless the nature of the trial set before you, it asks: “Would you like to live in a larger world, one without fear? Do you want to be less worried, or angry, and more at peace with yourself?”

3 Signs Your Child is An Old Soul

Children are beautiful creatures; they are raw, brutal, compassionate and deserve a lot more credit! They operate entirely from their emotional body, using feelings as their guidance system. Their connection to Source, their overpowering imagination and surreal way of thinking is something that seems to dissipate into the design of society.

As we grow from children to adults, if we stayed in our emotional bodies, our world would operate based on feeling rather than hard logic. It would be fantastical, nonsensical and literally magical. Our belief systems would have stayed open throughout our development and the idea of impossibility would not exist.

Children that are considered old souls are those here with a purpose to spread their timeless wisdom through a newly born vessel. There’s something so captivating about a child that has brought forth so much information and insight from the other side. 

1. They Are Insightful...

Waking Up From The Biggest Illusion In The World

By Frank M. Wanderer, Ph.D
Guest Writer for Wake Up World

We live here on Earth, together with billions of fellow human beings. That we live is an irrefutable empirical fact. Similarly, the fact that other people live on Earth, too, is also an empirical fact.

We do not merely live, however, but we are also personalities. We are personalities who are similar to each other in various respects, and largely different from each other in other respects. That we are personalities, different from each other is also an empirical fact for us.

Out of these two experiences, however, only one is true, the other is deception. Only one is a fact, the other is an illusion, and the biggest illusion in the world at that.

Daily Message ~ Thursday May 28, 2015

When you yearn for the energies of Home, what you are really yearning for is the energy of complete and total acceptance, exactly as you are. You can create this to a great extent for yourself, by loving yourself unconditionally and embracing your unique energy and offerings. Spend time in the activities that bring you joy. Give yourself permission to be you. Shine in your truth, and you will be able to draw to you the others who recognize and appreciate you just as you are. But most of all, give yourself acceptance and unconditional love first, and you will be anchoring the energies of heaven on earth, and embodying the very things you most wish to experience. ~Archangel Gabriel

Restoring Your Self-Confidence – Be Brave, Be Bold


Credit: Crazierlife.com

By Wes Annac, Culture of Awareness

“Whether or not you write well, write bravely” – Bill Stout

I came across this quote on the internet, and it really spoke to me. It reminded me that we aren’t here to be perfect at the things we do to bring the world into the light – we’re here to patiently develop them (and enjoy ourselves along the way) as we use them to help others.

Creative bravery doesn’t just apply to writing. Whatever it is we want to do in life, let’s get out there and do it without worrying that we won’t be good enough. We’ll get better than we ever expected if we keep at it, and then, we can really help people.

Too many of us worry about what other people think of us, and the people whose acceptance we seek are the very people we came here to help. We aren’t here for acceptance – we’re here to help everyone who’s willing to open up and listen to what we have to say, no matter how we say it.

We won’t be experts at something we try for the first time, and we have to develop our talent if we want it to go anywhere. We have to be willing to work hard in the face of all odds, and we have to embrace the pain and uncertainty that come with it.

Most importantly, we have to do it boldly.

Astronomers Discover Potentially Habitable Exoplanet 16 Light-Years Away

Scientists have reported the discovery of an Earth-like exoplanet orbiting in the habitable zone of the dwarf star Gliese 832.

Gliese 832 is a red dwarf star located in the constellation Grus, roughly 16 light-years away. This star is already known to harbor Gliese 832 b, a gas giant discovered in 2009.

The newly found alien world, named Gliese 832 c, has an orbital period of 36 days, a mass five times that of Earth’s. According to the astronomers, it receives about the same average energy as Earth does from the Sun.

“If the planet has a similar atmosphere to Earth it may be possible for life to survive, although seasonal shifts would be extreme,” explained Dr Chris Tinney from the University of New South Wales, who is a co-author of the study published in the Astrophysical Journal.

“However, given the large mass of the planet, it seems likely that it would possess a massive atmosphere, which may well render the planet inhospitable. A denser atmosphere would trap heat and could make it more like a super-Venus and too hot for life,” he said.

War – A Balance of Profit and Fear

American Flag BombsKlaus Rahikainen, Contributor
Waking Times

Now that the fearful winds of war are again blowing strongly in our world I find it important to see through the daily crises and find the patterns of war that lie behind the daily scenes of violence so eagerly shown to us by media. Why are there so many continuous conflicts and wars in our world even though we all know that war is just plain misery? Why do we fight with each other?

What are the patterns of war, the general ideas behind the major wars that have been fought since the French Revolution? What are the common traits, the psychological reasons that time after time have led nations to war against each other? And what is the actual outcome, the balance of these many wars fought?

Day 8: Create Abundance, Lamat 8

CREATE ABUNDANCE   Limiting belief codes keep many of you at the level of poverty. This need not be so. Consider what good you could do in the world if you had more than you needed. At the least, you could free up a tremendous amount of time and energy that is currently expended on making ends meet or saving for a “rainy day.” Your dreams and goals will be limited as long as you hold onto fears and limiting belief codes. Truly, the world is yours to co-create and to manifest whatever you wish to experience.

There are legions of us on the “Other Side” who are more than willing to fulfill your desires. As long as you feel yourselves unworthy of receiving an abundance of gifts, you will be blocked from having all you desire. Look back on your life and find those blocks that keep you from realizing the powerful and wonder filled person that you are. Dare to imagine how your life could change if you had all you needed and more. Where would you go? What would you do? What changes would you make? Begin to make those choices today. Feel what it would be like to have a life of abundance.

Our Thoughts Create Our Reality Here’s the Science to Prove it

Physical matter consists of coarse, dense forms of energy with slow vibrations and a strong resistance towards change. On the contrary, thoughts represent a fast vibrating, easily changeable form of energy which responds quickly to stimulation. Everything we create, we first create in the form of thought.

When we want to create something, we start out with a thought, an idea or an image of what we want. This idea works as a blue print for the final creation. The blue print attracts and directs the energy, so the goal or creation finally manifests on the physical level. This means that you attract the things and situations you most believe in. Your belief systems and expectations are reflected by the physical world as your personal reality. Thus, the physical world acts as a mirror for your thoughts and expectations. You attract the things and situations you most believe in. If you believe the world is a bad place, that’s what you will experience. Negative thinking, uncertainty and anxiety attract the situations and the persons you try to avoid. On the other hand, if your attitude is basically positive, you attract the people and events which correspond to your positive expectations. That means, that if you basically believe that the world is a wonderful place, you will attract wonderful people and events.

Catch a Star

God said:

When you hang on to lingering unhappiness and don’t want it one minute longer, here’s what you can do.

You can be content right now. When you’re happy, you feel light of heart. When you feel unhappy, you feel heavy of heart. It may seem to you that you are helpless and subject to the winds, yet you are the conductor of your orchestra. Orchestrate what you want. Get away from what you don’t want. Look toward what you seek, not away from it. Complain no more.

No more whining about poor you. Equate yourself with joy, and be joy. Complaints are not to be on your agenda. You are despondent when you say you are. Give yourself freedom from unhappiness. I delight in you, and I exhort you to delight in life. What makes you blasé or even caustic?

If you truly desire joy in life, then let go of past association with lack. Talk about unhappiness and unsettledness, and you will have them. Cultivate association with lightness of heart, and you will have it.

You can be whatever you want to be. When you find yourself in the grips of unhappiness and cannot seem to jump out of that mode or mood, change the direction of your thoughts.

The Only Difference Between Heaven and Hell? Your Mind.

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven..” ~ John Milton, Paradise Lost

We could say that every individual human being lives in a world of their own, so to speak. Some people live in a world where a tree is just unprocessed timber, others where a tree is a tree, and yet others where a tree is just some mysterious thing that grows out of the ground and comes alive in the wind. Some people live in a battlefield, others in a field of flowers; some live in rain and thunder, others in the sun.

Most people you will meet are to some degree lost in their own version of social conditioning and form identity; they see the world from the perspective of an ego. Some of these world views are nicer than others, but all have in common that they are built on a foundation of fear.

Existence is not problematic; it is mysterious, it is miraculous. You dive deep into it. Celebrate it Make a festival out of it. Sing, dance, love, pray, paint, create music - but don't try to solve it. The musician is much closer than the philosopher; so is the poet much closer than the philosopher; so is the dancer even closer than the musician and the poet. Why is the dancer so much closer? Because in the dance you dissolve: the dancer disappears and only the dance remains. Dance is one of the deepest meditations possible.

In India we have conceived of God as the dancer, Nataraj. That's very significant, because when a painter paints, immediately he becomes separate from the painting. If the painting remains in his being, he is one with it. When it is yet hidden, just a seed, just a thought, a dream, then the painter is one with his painting. The moment he has painted it, poured it on the canvas, he has become separate from it. Duality has arisen. So is it the case with the poet, so is it the case with the musician.

Only the dancer has something unique: the dancer remains one with the dance. Even when he starts dancing, the unity is not broken, there is no duality. Utter oneness. In fact, when the dancer is thinking about the dance there is a duality - the idea of the dance and the dancer - there is a subtle duality. The moment he starts dancing even that duality disappears. Then the dancer is the dance. There is no dancer separate from the dance, no dance separate from the dancer. This is Unio Mystica.

God is a dancer. That means he has not painted the world; otherwise he would have become separate from it. It is not his poetry; it is not his music. It is his dance. He is in it, he is it - right this very moment, these green trees, and the sun pouring its gold through them, and the call of the bird, and you here sitting in silence, just being with me for no particular reason, just enjoying this moment, this silence. This is it.

-Rajneesh
