Mind always transforms everything, into the terms of action. Action is our language. say to people: Be meditative. And what do they hear? They hear that I teach that you should meditate. There is a vast difference. When I say: Be meditative, I am not saying that you should meditate, because meditation is not an act, you cannot do it. You can be in it, you cannot do it; it is a state, not an act.

I say: Be love, and what do you hear? You hear that I teach that you should love. You have changed the whole thing. Now, whatsoever you will be doing, I am not responsible for it, because you have not heard at all what was said. Love is not an act, it is a state of being. You can be loving, you can be love, but you cannot do it. How can you do it? Have you ever observed? How can you 'do' love? How can you force? Of course, you can act. That's why there are so many actors who are acting love, and so many actors who are acting meditation. You have missed the point; it is a state of being. But, you will again ask: Then what is to be done? If it is a state of being, then what is to be done? Then what should we do? You again go on missing.

No, just try to understand, just try to understand, and the very understanding becomes meditation.

God Is Shining on You

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

God said:

Dear Children, of course, I hear your thoughts going round and round.

I hear you say, if not time and time again, often enough all your crying out to Me:

"Dear God of Heaven, there are times when my heart feels empty, when I am devoid of belief in myself. I am so difficult to please that I am impossible to please. God, it is clear to me that I need to have more belief and confidence in myself.

“God, I do not always want to be in the world You created. Too often I feel miscast in the world. The best moments of My Life are my moments with You, not out in the world. It seems to me that the world, well, does not love me but finds me wanting. Is not your attention on Me enough? Is it value from the world I must have and do not?

“There is something in Life that I am missing. I think it is a kind of Life Sense. I keep thinking that others know more than I do. I seem to put faith in other people more than in myself. I listen to others too much, and then I'm sorry for the time and heartache I waste in so doing.

“Much of my Life is paved with regrets because I counted on others too much, or I don’t count at all on others when and where I might have been blessed to do so.

"Can it be that my grief is that I do not believe in my Connection to You, God, not enough? Can it be, despite other evidence, that I do not put my faith in You?

“God, there is no One else to put my Faith in but You. Yet I seem to hesitate. When I hesitate, I falter. There is something I am missing. There is something I lack.”

Intermittent Fasting For Women, What You Need To Know To Avoid Hormonal Imbalance

Submitted by will on

by Alanna Ketler, Collective Evolution

By now, you may have heard of some of the incredible benefits of intermittent fasting. Things like a higher metabolism, weight loss, and increased energy, among many other benefits, can all be experienced, and I’ll explore them further below. As soon as I heard about this amazing practice, I thought it would be something that I could simply incorporate into my lifestyle to aid my health and I began doing it right away. It wasn’t long after that I found some information explaining how women must be careful with this practice because it can actually cause hormonal imbalance and even lead to fertility issues. So if you are a woman and intermittent fasting interests you, here’s what you need to know.

What Is Intermittent Fasting?

First off, you may have no idea what intermittent fasting even is, so let me explain. The process of intermittent fasting involves restricting the eating period to an 8-10 hour window, so that you are going between 12 and 16 hours or more with absolutely no food in your system. Water, herbal tea, and black coffee are fine, however.

The Benefits And Dangers Of Taking Psychedelics - TruthTheory

Submitted by will on

By Luke Miller Truth Theory

Psychedelics are a great tool for communicating with alternate realities and getting to understand ourselves a little better, however they are no quick fix and can often leave you with more questions than answers.

Before I go any further I would just like to say that there are many different types of psychedelics, which have different effects and cautions that should be taken when using them- do your research before using any substance, even if it is not a psychedelic. There are many benefits of psychedelics, but there are also many dangers- in this article I would like to cover this from both perspectives.

Dissolution Of Conditioning

When you take psychedelics it often takes you out of the conditioned mind, giving you a view that is clear from your previous experience. Our conscious mind is the result of everything we experience in the world and no matter how hard we try to stay away from media, bad influences and experience, we can’t completely avoid these things. It can be a beautiful thing to see things as they are for the first time, and this is the effect psychedelics often have.

Diet Drinks TRIPLE Your Risk Of Stroke And Dementia, Study Finds - TruthTheory

Submitted by will on

By Eden Marie Truth Theory

To shed weight and appear trim, millions of people around the globe indulge in diet drinks which are predominantly sweetened with aspartame, an established neurotoxin. Though the effects of aspartame are widely known and keep some people from consuming “diet” beverages, only recently have researchers confirmed that sipping diet fizzy drinks daily increases one’s risk of developing dementia or having a stroke later on in life.

Scientists from Boston University studied almost 4,400 adults to determine the effects of drinking full sugar vs diet drinks, and concluded that adults who have one diet drink a day are three times more at risk to suffer a stroke or dementia. Reportedly, no connection was made between the sugary beverages and either of the illnesses, but the researchers don’t recommend those be ingested, either.

A poor man, a very deep ascetic, who had renounced everything reached the gate of heaven. He had nothing with him, he was naked. He had remained a naked fakir for many lives.

He had not touched gold for many lives; he had not accumulated anything for many lives. He was a perfect ascetic. He knocked at the door of heaven; the door was opened. The man who opened the door looked at this ascetic and told him: You can enter only when you have left all your possessions behind. He was naked and with no possessions. The naked fakir started laughing. He said: Are you a fool? I have got nothing. Can't you see? Are you blind? I am completely naked without any possessions. The man started laughing and said: Yes, that I can see, but I can see deeper also.

Inside, you are carrying yourself, and that is the only possession which is the barrier. We are not concerned about what clothes you are or are not wearing. That is not the point. Whether or not you are carrying yourself, that is the only thing. You have to throw it out, then you can enter. The ascetic became very angry. He was in a rage. He said: I am a great ascetic, and I have thousands of followers on the earth! Said the man, the doorkeeper: That is precisely the problem, that you have thousands of followers, and you are a great ascetic. Throw this out! Otherwise I will be forced to close this door. And he had to close that door. The ascetic has to come back. Remember, only you are the barrier; that is why emptiness is the door.

Go Ahead, Fly High

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

God said:

It is not so much the time you spend. It is more about what you spend your time on. Is this true or not? You can speak up.

Too often My Children spend too much time on worry. Any time on worry is too much. Spend time on Peace and Love, and so you build the world. You are not at cross-purposes. Don’t contradict yourself. Do not take yourself down. You don’t have to turn the world upside-down, nor do you have to pack Life away in a box in the attic.

Trust in yourself. Trust in yourself enough to go for what you want. Trust your embarking on Life. Trust. Count on yourself. What can you do but take the approach that you do know what you are doing – and then find out! Do not quibble with yourself. Take yourself at full value. No need to over-think. Follow your ideas. Give them a good shot at manifesting. Go where they take you. This is following your heart. Whose heart should you follow if not yours?

If later you decide to turn around and go in a different direction or go back, what is wrong with that? By living Life, you find out. I never said you had to be 100% accurate.
