HAPPY 'BELATED' FATHERS DAY TO ALL FATHERS ON EARTH
Dear Ones . . . Sat Nam,
We were out of internet range for the past several weeks and wanted to (belatedly) acknowledge the fathers of this world.
Fathers are — for so many children — the most effective yet indirect teachers on this planet. They give their wisdom in so many ways . . . and we then realize the full extent of that wisdom . . . so many years later.
As we celebrate Father's Day — our hearts and prayers go out to
the men of this world. Bless them everywhere and keep them safe. This is a time of many wars . . . wars target fathers . . . where man attempts to dominate man. War drives compassion from the heart and soul of our villages. It is often the fathers who are caught in the battle at the crossroads. Let us take this time to say a conscious prayer for the fathers of this world and bless them with the strength to find other solutions and end these battles.
This (to the left) is the art of my father — an artist,philosopher, yogi and great husband to our mother for 50 years—-also a great and constant teacher to me and my sister — and so many others — while he was on this Earth . . . even more so now. This year is the 108th anniversary of his birth.
His teachings ring in my ears to this day. He would ask me to always engage strangers . . . "Strangers will teach you," he would tell me with a smile, "that there is no one on Earth quite as strange as you." This instilled a fearlessness in my communication that I live with to this day.
Always with Love, Blessings, Prayer and Gratitude,
Guru Singh and Guruperkarma Kaur
INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Tension, pressure, stress and friction are our human interpretations of the results of gravity. Without gravity — and these impressions — there is no possibility of life, or any other 'matter' in this universe.
How you interpret the message from these impressions of gravity will determine how you feel about the world around you at any given moment and how you view your possibilities of moving forward through it. These views will cause questions . . . Am I supported in my dreams? . . . Is the world out to get me and destroy my dreams? These questions will cause responses . . . I will succeed! . . . I will have problems here!
All of these and many other questions with responses will arise on a daily basis and shape the ways you view the essential impressions of gravity. Since these impressions are a part of all existence it is really up to you to make them your friends.
Mold your opinions and responses to all the tension, pressure, stress and friction — which must exist everywhere around you — very supportive. Cause your responses to promote and project the greatness of your existence. Work to align all your bodies (physical as well as emotional and mental) in such a way that your relationships with their impressions of gravity are productive tools creating the world you want to live in.
Cause your reactions to the essential realities of tension, pressure, stress and friction to be essential and real, supportive and promoting.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
When it comes to educating children in this world, one size does not fit all. Within the categories we have already labeled — the so-called unable, the disabled, the special needs and those lacking particularly common abilities — rests other advanced abilities excitedly sprinkled amongst these children with unusual and phenomenal capacities. Children are, in fact, able to see this world through a wide variety of lenses if we allow them to.
Our job as educators is not to label and categorize the child's abilities, but to excite our own ability of enabling their dormant powers . . . unique powers resting within every child on Earth. Our task is to invoke the discovery.
Discovery is an adventure of common sense in the world of 'growing up' . . . it is professionally known as education. True education, however, is a two-way road where you learn and receive as much as you teach and give.
The joys in such an educational system lie within the purposeful discovery of these 'unique' intelligences. Joy becomes a purpose and joyful education produces understandings where misunderstandings previously dominated.
Wars between cultures are most often waged when misunderstandings are unable to be intelligently resolved. When we cease to underfund education, and when we place as much research into its industry as we currently do for the military industry; we will create a world that requires little in the way of such weaponry. Intelligence, resulting from progressive - highly researched - discovery oriented education, will find common ground through commonsense, and a common wealth for the common good.
This is one of many paths toward world peace . . . a far less destructive and disheartening way than fighting for it.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Feelings are composite sensations, derived and developed from glandular and organ hormones secreted into the bloodstream during the course of daily life . . . a byproduct of the complex layering of emotions.
They may be, or may not be accurate. They are not some god to follow blindly. It is therefore wisest to free your 'Higher-Self' from its slavery to these feelings.
Become an advocate of commitment . . . commitment overrides the inaccuracies of your feelings.

GURU SINGH - TEACHING IN NORTHEASTERN, U.S.
Dear Ones . . . Sat Nam,
Join us in New England at the Kripalu Retreat Center for Yoga and Holistic Living www.kripalu.org from July 26th through July 31st. And in New York City the weekend of August 1st and 2nd (time and location to be announced).
INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Love . . . in any relationship . . . is a music filling the room. As time goes by . . . a dog will be barking; a child will be crying; a neighbor will yell and lots of stuff happens . . . all the thoughts of love may appear to be lost. Many people will react to this apparent absence; they will replace the loving thoughts and words with harshness. Eventually the music of our love is no longer heard.
Remember: it is still there . . . if we turn down all the other noise we will find it in the exact same way it was.
Love, once discovered, never leaves . . . it just gets covered with the dust and the noise of an unintended and unattended life.
These Inspirational Blessings are like mantras . . . reminders that cause us to think at a new angle . . . to shake up old patterns . . . to renew and rebuild our vision and purpose. We then gain insight to ignite and inspire an opening to manifest our conscious focus through conscious action.
INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Pleasure is found in who we know - what we do - where we are . . . happiness exists inside whoever, whenever, and wherever we are. Happiness is wired into human DNA . . . pleasure gets us all wired up in the chase to locate it on the outside. Happiness is our birthright . . . pleasure is found in the hierarchies of birthing.
The most important conclusion to draw — as early in life as possible — is the one that allows you to set your own course. This is also where your greatest challenges dwell. You must face your worst fears in this process . . . they will try and force you to give up and run back. It is your job to dive deep into the core of your being and move forward.
If you choose to move forward, you will bump into the seeds of happiness along the way. Plant them in the soil of your dreams and nourish them with each and every day.
And by the way — those fears that you found surrounding the core of your being when you set this course; they will not just go away . . . you will have to re-employ them on some other task if you don't want to be hounded by their persistent behavior.
These Inspirational Blessings are like mantras . . . reminders that cause us to think at a new angle . . . to shake up old patterns . . . to renew and rebuild our vision and purpose. We then gain insight to ignite and inspire an opening to manifest our conscious focus through conscious action.
INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Magic (or miracles) happen when we stop using fear and doubt to interfere with the infinite capacity of the Cosmos. Magic/miracle is in fact the way of the feminine (the Ma the Mir). Logic is the way of the masculine (the Law).
Today's world does not recognize the power of MA (which appears to the untrained senses as chaos). The world is consumed by its obsession with LAW . . . and the predictability of ORDER. This is the world of a child needing the predictability of order to feel safe. This is the world that produces GOD as this disciplinary father figure . . . the world of the exclusive logic.
This attitude will soon be forced from the grip of humanity as the era changes. This is what we are beginning to experience at this time. The more you are open to magic, the more you will feel centered and at peace in these changing times.
The next evolution is one that engages GOD as the balance of both male and female. It is where awareness opens to the infinite possibility of reality rather than the limited predictability of any particular, cultural fantasy.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Only our physical form has the supposed limitations of a single location, the mind can be all over the "map." Only our physical form questions whether more locations are real. This is very old thinking.
The idea that this is a Uni-verse rather than a Multi-verse; that there is only one planet with human life on it; these are like the "Flat Earth" concept of the Dark Ages. As the great teacher 'Guru Nanak' said, "There are worlds upon worlds, universes upon universes, existences upon existences."
Learn to accept that which has no explanation as a part of the infinite landscape. Because; in the laws of infinity — possibility becomes probability — the impossible becomes opportunity — and eventually, it is impossible to be impossible.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
As we rise above the old-world consciousness of arranging and grouping ourselves along exclusive and competing hierarchies; we will move into an era of inclusive compassionate communities. Using healthy boundaries without restrictive 'bias' or borders, we will evolve into a multi-purposeful global village.
We will then discover ourselves serving each other without fear, and engaging each other without the desperate need to control. This will take time and there will be discomfort along the way, but it is inevitable.
Join the pioneers and help lead the way.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Science vowed in the 17th century that we would conquer nature and we have been ravaging our natural world ever since. Mastering these elements, not conquering them . . . being at one with their natural essence, not altering it . . . this is what brings about harmony. This is what our world and its people need right now . . . not everyone playing the same note, but everyone playing a harmonious concert.
The laws of harmony are benevolent laws. They feed the growth of everything in nature. Not living by their rules is to ignore the basics of life . . . the result of which will not flourish, will not prosper.
Learn the laws of harmony and play your part in the orchestra of humanity . . . do so in the small ways and in the larger picture. You will find a great joy stowed within your days.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Within the unknown adventures of expanding your awareness on the path of your destiny, any comfort zone will soon become exceedingly uncomfortable. At such a point in your evolution, a safety/comfort zone becomes the most dangerous place to be.
All your exalted efforts fail when safety tries to mix with destiny. The path of destiny requires tremendous trust and faith, courage and character, consciousness and caliber. The path of destiny has no side rails; no net; no back door with an escape hatch . . . it is the ride of your life and is exclusively - perfectly - effectively attuned to your life.
Tune in to this . . . turn life on to this . . . prepare for the ride of your life.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
When manifesting dreams . . . humbly and deeply reach beyond each moment into the inspired -ifs- and the enthusiastic -when's- and pull them into the NOW.
Manifest means a celebration of the mind . . . it is a celebration before the fact. This means that you allow adoration to flow from the cells of your body to construct clear pathways of support your intentions.
Remember: Change is the only constant here . . . it is not life threatening, but it threatens life as you know it. Be a willing participant.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
When you are working on any personal issue; it will (at first) appear to be getting worse. It is not getting worse, it is getting obvious.
Success is always tied to growth . . . growth must always enter the unknown . . . the unknown will always have an array of mistakes awaiting you.
Therefore, explore this unknown with the courage . . . essential to seeing failures as a sign of the coming success.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Instincts respond to each moment with, "I must survive!" Intelligent consciousness responds to each moment with, "We all must thrive!" Intuitive consciousness responds to each moment with "We are the Spirit of life!"
There is a time and a place for each one of these responses. Higher consciousness is the talent that determines this timing . . . this Pace.
The higher your consciousness, the cleaner your responses. Spend a portion of each day working to raise this frequency of your consciousness . . . then enjoy the accuracy and prosperity of your moments.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Whatever we believe will either increase, decrease, initiate or remove the power of our will. Beliefs are at the core of what we relate to as 'reality' and this core is the foundation of our will.
When we believe . . . we are willing . . . when we are willing . . . we engage . . . when we engage . . . we are powerful to the degree of our will.
This is the law of Karma (cause and affect) in its most beneficial and benevolent form.

The next stage of human evolution — here in the twenty first century — is Self-realization, Mastery and Liberation. This not only your assignment, it is your birthright. This is [your] destiny . . . and every other human's as well.
Join this 're'-evolutionary movement at the dawn of every day. Express yourself to your Self, and do so in a way that sincerely attracts your complete and undivided attention.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
When parenting, employing, or teaching; eventually the conversations must exceed the instructions . . . it must exceed the commands and demands.
There is a part in every human consciousness that is poised, eager and thirsty to absorb the words of a compassionate authority . . . no matter what these words have to say. That same part in every human consciousness will ultimately resist the speeches of stale instructions and inhumane power.
What goes around comes around. If you want to be heard . . . listen to how you express your message, for eventually you are the very heart of the listener.

Every day as life faces you in the face, be purposeful and resourceful — like the Dutch claiming land from the sea. When you open new growth—spaces one day; maintain it for a beginning point of the next day, and then repeat this pattern each day thereafter.
This is the way to take advantage of growing — by capitalizing on the growth you've already made.
Remember: even within the moments of tremendous error along your path, there are bits and pieces in the pattern that can be reused, remolded, renewed and reshaped to suit the next phase of your map. Never throw your errors away in anger at the self . . . learn to learn from them and use their lessons.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
Every day . . . the first thing to do . . . is make a clear and certain contact with the YOU inside of you. This is true intimacy and it will provide authenticity to every relationship you have inside the outside world.
Love to love such a moment of joy and oneness. Find a sense of connection and fulfillment within the sensation of such a moment. Discover the experience within the experience of life. Build each moment one step at a time and live this experience to the fullest degree.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
The passage of time is like an hourglass where the grains of sand are moments passing through the narrows of the glass . . . the narrows are known (in time) as "now." Sand that has fallen through this narrows is called the "past" and the sand waiting to fall is called the "future."
Spiritual mastery (and now science) shows us that this view of time is an illusion; it is only a limited perspective held by our five senses. Past and future are pure imagination, yet extremely convenient markers. They allow us to keep track of all our concepts by making the order of 'things' more logical. Our five senses produce a logical view of the world and this view emulates the "passage of time."
There is a more advanced way to view the cosmos; one that sees all time together as one. In this view; the past, present and future are all just the sand with no reference to its movement. This view, known as the continuum, is the power of our intuition, premonition and the psychic abilities. Instead of viewing each moment of the sand moving, it focuses on all of the sand at once, and just as with all of time . . . all of the sand is in fact . . . always existing.
Every human has the inherent capacity to perceive and interpret in this way, but most have not yet activated the "equipment." The world at large discredits such attempts to engage this view by branding it as weird or crazy or dreaming. This way of viewing life and the world is a human skill that can be acquired and trained.
Commitment is one of the most powerful tools in your human inventory. It overrides impulse and places control of your experience back in your hands. Commitment is one of the many pathways to the power of intuition; a perfect way to embrace and comprehend the "passage of time" to guide your life toward your goals.
An extremely practical method of discovering, strengthening and tuning up your commitment is through yoga, meditation and chanting. Kundalini yoga stretches you into your body glove to remove the emotional distractions and physical discomforts. Meditation and chanting clear the brain of its chatter (conscious and unconscious) and enable clarity to flourish. Tuning this human instrument on a regular, consistent, daily basis presents you with the joy of knowing that you actually know. This is at the very root of the power of intuition.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
In the process, display great patience . . . patience is not sitting and waiting, it's sitting and knowing. Patience is holding the 'space' of achievement with the 'place' of absolute willingness. In the sailing of a relationship . . . (Place) is the position of your sails. (Destiny) is where you are going. (Purpose) is the pathway between where you are and where you are going. The winds are the circumstances of the infinite possibilities of the (Space). In these infinite possibilities are the infinite solutions awaiting your patience to unfold them.
In the process of building this community — social, business or other — trust everyone for who they are and allow them to be who they are . . . all the while having tremendous encouragement for them becoming who they long to be. Remember: all life — at the core — longs to be included . . . never excluded — longs to be inclusive . . . not exclusive.
To this end; it is essential that your voice be reasonable in tone, while you are unreasonable in your commitment. There can be no audible absolutes on your voice-print of this commitment — the tone must be flexible and yet the commitment absolutely firm. Absolutes in your tone will always set up a rebuttal, which will in turn set up an argument. When your tone is flexible and there is a guarantee in your absolute commitment, there is nothing to rebut and you convey a sense of total security.
Patience, when accompanied by such security, is a guarantee . . . your needs will be met by the gratitude that your needs will be met. Humee hum . . . Brahm hum . . . this is Sanskrit for such a realization.

INSPIRATIONAL BLESSINGS
The world is your reflection; you hear this time and time again when you are on a spiritual path. What this means is that when you are in a room of people, a boardroom of associates, a train of strangers, a moment of circumstances — all are reflecting an "angle" of you. Whatever is projected is reflected at the speed of light. In life, just as in the hall of mirrors; many of the reflections may distort or magnify all or parts of your projection, but within each reflection (distorted or not) there is some reality, some clarity. The total reflection may not be so true, but it contains some. Even when the reflection is a distortion, it is up to you to find the seeds of truth within the distortion.
To believe in such a dynamic law and lead your life within this dynamic is of course a great risk, it can deeply disturb your slumbering consciousness. Remember, when nothing is ventured nothing is ever gained.
Even walking is a great risk . . . it is in fact simply falling and then catching yourself from falling with each step. As a very young child you were first confronted be the risk of walking; as you decided to try it, you were filled with fear. Then you were somehow inspired to see it as a risk worth taking . . . there were sufficient rewards to be gained at the end of the walk. Now, as you walk about your days, you don't even perceive the slightest degree of the actual risk. You won't, in fact, until you become very, very old and once again connect to the same risk you knew as a child. The reality is that the risk was always there, it never left; you were always falling and then catching yourself from falling with each step. Your attitude simply changed; the inspiration overpowered the trepidation.
Losing the sense of risk is the ultimate step in any natural progression . . . when acquiring any skill, achieving any goal. The same is true in seeing the world as your own reflection, for seeing the world as your reflection is ultimately the most powerful skill you can gain. It is time to develop this same "risk-free" relationship with such a risk. This is the risk that surrounds every one of your life-goals, every one of your fondest dreams.
First: see all the risks in viewing the entire world as your reflection, don't deny any of them. Second: see the goal as absolutely worthwhile. Third: see that this risk of viewing the world as your reflection creates every fear that stands between you and your dreams. Fourth: refocus on the inspiration of the goal and slightly angle the view that sits beside the risk . . . just see it as part of the landscape . . . then a little less . . . and a little less. The risk — just as in walking — will never go away . . . your relationship with it simply changes your attitude of which is more important, the inspiration or the trepidation.
These Inspirational Blessings are like mantras . . . reminders that cause us to think at a new angle . . . to shake up old patterns . . . to renew and rebuild our vision and purpose. We then gain insight to ignite and inspire an opening to manifest our conscious focus through conscious action.

When you believe that anything outside yourself will change the quality of your life, you are like the kitten seeing its reflection in a mirror and thinking there are two cats in the room. It is the quality of your commitment to the self that determines the quality of your life as well as the quality of your relationships to others. The quality of these relationships creates the quality of your experience.
In this relation to the self be ever aware of both your strengths and your weaknesses . . . your assets and your debt . . . and be committed to both. Do not be depressed by your debts — your weakness — simply understand that you love them, or else you would not have them. You require them to learn the lessons of their perspective and without them you would not be complete in this moment.
The only way to fully enjoy your great wealth — your many strengths and assets — is to be able to withstand the pressure of this debt. The only way to truly appreciate the experience of your existence is to see both strength and weakness, asset and debt, as a carefully balanced, balance sheet . . . a full picture of you. Be able to look at your debts and instantly balance this view with your assets . . . the shadow gives perspective to the light in any "real" picture. This follows the old proverb of successful living, "When you are depressed . . . press back."
When you see your world in this way, the world will rush to you as a great and stable investment. People will invest time and love in you because they believe in your stability. Your next step is to learn to become exceedingly comfortable with their belief in you. This can become one of the missions in your life; it will bring great abundance, a wealth of quality friends and a loving relationship that has that perfect flavor of forever.
These Inspirational Blessings are like mantras . . . reminders that cause us to think at a new angle . . . to shake up old patterns . . . to renew and rebuild our vision and purpose. We then gain insight to ignite and inspire an opening to manifest our conscious focus through conscious action.

Happiness does not control your thoughts; happiness happens when the thoughts that are present — are assembled into a construct of clarity, transparency and simplicity even where there is clouded complexity. It uses any neurographical location — vantage point — to perceive what is and appreciate what is for what it is. Happiness then employs this same pattern — this neurological framework — to receive the next moment graciously. This is the ripple effect of joy . . . moments of appreciation leading to moments of clarity leading to moments of simplicity leading back to moments of appreciation. "Happiness runs in a circular motion . . . . . . "
Because success is the result of many failures; there are no pre-conditions, no suppositions, no previous requirements for happiness. It can arise from any moment at any moment. From each failure it is up to you to discipline and assemble a new moment — a next moment of appreciation, clarity, transparency and simplicity even amongst life's chaotic complexities. Within the new assembled construct of each failure, it is additionally up to you to perceive what is and appreciate it for exactly what it is. From this undistorted point of appreciation you anticipate the next moment respectively and receptively.
This is not something that can be thought about to be brought about; this is something that can only be 'entrained' through consistent discipline. In the same way you would discipline a tennis swing to create topspin, a golf swing to create intended direction, a violin fingering to have the harmonic spacing, a sentence to impart understanding . . . all by attempting, practicing and mirroring an imagination of it working.
Happiness is not desired or acquired; happiness is allowed to arise. Happiness is never stiff; it is as flexible as water. If at first it does not succeed . . . it will try and try and try again until it does. Such is the resilient nature of happiness.

Dreams, purpose and passion turn obstacles into outcomes . . . they create the many gifts we then receive. There is no destination connected to these efforts; there is a process through which you pass passionately.
Passing through this process is the value of your life. The variables in the process are . . . how much joy will you experience . . . how much time will you require . . . how much courage will you display.
When you are true to passion, there are no reference points - nothing to compare to - no elements to compute. You are moving a determined quality through an unknown quantity. Nothing is for certain, but your certainty.
The stabilizers are your willingness, your effort and your dedication to an outcome of choice, not chance. Connecting to dream — commitment to purpose — acceptance of passion . . . paints your 'river' into your aura and leads your 'river' to your ocean . . .

We are entering into a new era where all the limited horizons, the restricted views; the simpler explanations that have served you in the past will no longer be sufficient to move you forward. You cannot go about your life remaining in a safe zone; viewing your world and experiencing your world through the same old filters. These ways you have always known will continue the same predictable ups and downs and the familiarity will give you the illusion of safety. But it is the end of their road and this is becoming more and more obvious.
Your life is inviting you to take this moment in time . . . engage a brand new opportunity — take a risk if you will — initiate the process of altering your perceptions. Begin to eliminate the familiar filters that only show you what you already know. Learn something new . . . begin to broaden your horizons . . . expand your views and build a new set of explanations to account for what you are experiencing.

The 'wall' is stopping you for a great reason . . . do not use frustration to meet it head on . . . acknowledge the wisdom within the reason through an angle of effective and efficient approach.
Take your lessons from the nature of water at this point. Become as flexible as is required to continue on your path to success. You may have to give way to go forward . . . to split your intent to rejoin it later . . . to rise above the blocking issues and go over the wall . . . or release your attachments and go around the wall.
In other words — when you run into a wall, do not "pound" on the wall in any way; just locate the door — then locate the handle on that door. Now you know exactly what to do with the handle. You have done it many times before; so do it again with the great tingling glee of success.

When you have such a special quality it can often be accompanied by a sense of low self esteem and love. This is not the only path, but when it is the path it is simply because there is no other self view that would put up with the insults of so many errors.
Yes, this means that low self esteem and love can be creativity drivers. They present you with a powerful tool in their searching for themselves . . . searching for love and for esteem. They drive you to become better and better while allowing you to put up with all the sub-par stages that gather the mistakes in between.
There comes a time in any job however, when the tool must be released and the task of the tool declared done. If after the nail has been driven in, you are still swinging the hammer, you will damage the job that you have already achieved. This is the case with low self love and esteem. When these creativity drivers have created the excellence that can go no further with them in place, they must be released. But this process has also grown reliant and familiar with them and a habit pattern has formed that must now be broken.
The way to break this pattern is by honoring the work that they (the low self esteem and self love) have achieved. This is the tricky part . . . honoring their work and reassigning them to yet another level of your development. Perhaps you can assign them now to keeping you humble as your excellence continues to grow. That would be a great reassignment . . . they will love you for it and not get in your way . . . which they would if you were not showing this appreciation. It is not as if they are independent beings that you must deal with. They are living parts of your being and this is an energy dance of extremely high awareness. It is both an art and a science.
The lesson here is — always find the reason within every challenge; then honor that reason for being what it is . . . and redirect the challenge to continuously work in your favor.

Remember however; when you take on these types of idealistic tasks there will always be push back both from without and within. The outside push back is obvious, but the internal ones are most clever. They create the foundation for your doubts, for your concerns . . . all the way up to your largest fears. They are rich earth for the internal ridicule and self defeating monologues that lurk in the shadows of the unconscious. They are always there waiting, just like mildew waits for dampness. You are not being targeted; don't take this personally . . . you are just an opportunity for either achievement or defeat. This is the nature of nature.
It is up to you to keep up; to keep yourself in the most conscious frame of mind. This is the duty of your daily practice . . . your Sadhana. How do you establish this practice? On whose back do you ride out into your day each day . . . your hero's or your naysayer's . . . your inspiration's or your doubt's? Make this a conscious choice you make . . . every morning of every day.

Life's greatest purpose and opportunity is to master the code behind this illusion and snap the "leash" that binds you to its mystery. To master this is to first become aware that your observation is creating your experience — everything that happens to you is in fact your responsibility. Next, trust this awareness you are having of the infinite responsibility of your possibility. Lastly, trust yourself to experience the experience that arrives at your door . . . knowing you never receive more than you can handle, or different than you expect. It is all about awareness.
When this all takes place in each moment without effort; you trust yourself without reservation. Now you will spend your life running "off leash" to create and recreate your reality as you would consciously choose. In this state you live each moment for what it is and pass joyfully through these moments, retaining all the blessings and releasing the debris.
This is known as liberation!

All that you are becomes merely what you are. All that you are engaged in becomes simply engaged. You are experiencing the experience without the need for a witness to witness the experience. You do not require anything to justify you or verify you other than the experience of your existence.
This is a state of grace . . . it comes from having confidence. The word is from the Latin and 'con' means — with — and 'fidence' means — faith. Faith is a subject that has no object . . . it is never faith in something (that would be trust or reliance) it is just faith.
This confidence allows for many things including — the experience of life to be that of living the experience. It is when you have the experience of joy without needing an explanation of a reason; or when you experience love and require no justification for the experience. You thereby disallow doubts becoming the witness to your experience . . . there is then no disruption to the joy of your love. This is the pure existence having a pure experience. This is known in Sanskrit as 'Khalsa'.
The further you move from this purity of being and into the need for a witness, or to be witnessed; the more you must justify and the more you must employ the intellect to explain what you are experiencing. You are then not living the experience of life; you are witnessing the concept of life. This will naturally turn into pain and the purpose of life then becomes the avoidance of pain. It is then based solely on your conclusions drawn from your bias (angles of perception). To reduce this pain you engage in more witnessing and fill your time with explanations of the justifications of the condemnations.
Life becomes "unsafe" in this myriad of actions, distractions and reactions. Purpose becomes the need to guarantee safety . . . an unfulfilled and unfulfillable constant companion. In this endless cycle of pain to pleasure — pleasure to pain, the emphasis searches for a witness to witness the experience that is not being experienced.
Your task is to cast this cycle into a black-hole. Every galaxy has one. Dive into the experience of your experience. Become a Soul having the experience of a human being—being human. Be the experience itself and your birthright of happiness will appear as if it were there all along. Because it has been . . . it's the cosmic law of time-space . . . it's the nature of nature. Happiness is the experience of life — experiencing life.
Haven't you - at times - sensed the faint sense of these hints within the glimpses of your experience . . . when you've allowed yourself to experience an experience from within the innocence of your faint, but insistent courage? This is the true you being the pure experience! This is you being Khalsa.

Place is, in fact, a complex equation carried within the electro-magnetic field that surrounds you . . . known as the Aura. This is a filter of your input and output. It is constructed by four facets of your human being. These are your Feelings, Perceptions, Pace and Place . . . each one constructed interactively over tremendous amounts of time . . . even generations.
As you move from the traffic on a road to the quiet of a room you have changed the space of your experience, but you have carried the definition of the experience that you will experience, with you. The inner noise (the definition) traveling with you into the quiet room is far more present within your experience than even the noisy traffic you left outside. In order to change the foundation of 'Place', you must transform the inner source codes . . . you must work on the inner constructs of your Feelings, the inner constructs of your Perceptions, and the inner constructs of your Pace.
Simply changing the space (the persons, locations and things) with which and within which you exist will change very little . . . 'Place' is only slightly modified by these. Space is merely the setting in which you experience your experience; your Feelings, Perceptions and Pace define the experience. 'Place' will manifest based on your propensity to Feel, to Perceive and to Pace. Changing this 'Place' — that you carry with you —affects the entire experience of your experience . . . affects the entire sense of your existence . . . affects your outlooks and your outcomes. 'Place' is the experience and the experiencer.
Don't try to understand this 'Inspirational Blessing' using only your thoughts . . . allow it to sink into your body and your being.

Meditation disassembles old thought patterns and reassembles them into ones that better serve the 'pre-awakened' on a path to becoming 'awakened'. This is not always a dance; much of the time it is a struggle; especially when you run into patterns that have become attachments. Attachments are common when patterns have been in place for many years . . . and most of your patterns have been. They are entrenched in your system and do not plan on giving up and going away that easily.
Don't be concerned; meditation is not about getting it right, it is about getting to it and doing so daily. It is not about proving who you are . . . it is about improving who you are. It is about becoming aware of the rhythms of your life in relation to life, and getting them in touch with the deeper meaning of your life. Meditation will definitely be running into garbage here . . . if you are doing it properly.

There are two rather opposite directions of working consciousness into this equation of manifestation: 1) create horizons; 2) create focal points. Horizons cast and open the nets of the mind to wander, wonder and gather ideas and prospects available in the space of life. Focal points draw down this net of perception around what is present; to determine what is appropriate for any given moment of time in life. The direction of the eyes during meditation is important: when you mediate on your third eye point, you create horizons; when you meditate on the tip of your nose, you create a focal point.
Make use of meditations in this way. Establish a process of consciously envisioning, then with determined intention, remove the inappropriate doubts and develop the appropriate passions. Be the life you want to live.

This weeks class focuses on — The world is not spinning nor orbiting so that it can arrive somewhere . . . it is just spinning and orbiting. Life is not a destination . . . life is a living experience. There is a pace in the story of the Cosmos . . . there is a pace in the story of the Earth . . . these are always changing and always in harmony with each other. They are both controlled by "Grand Central" . . .the Infinite Presence we call GOD. Your pace however has free will driving it forward . . . therefore it is your task to personally harmonize with the other two . . . the Earth and the Cosmos. This is the path of a person with an advanced consciousness.

Remember: the outside world is like the winds in a sailor's voyage . . . you will never control the outside world — you will only control your sails that meet with its winds.
Of course you will be filled with doubts about your skills in angling the sails to meet these winds. This doubt is a good thing; it makes you stronger and much more exact in your efforts. This is why they are with you. Love the doubts that you have, but then dissolve them with your discipline . . . do not live with them as partners, they will grow very stale.
To establish this point and purpose of your dreams is what we yogis call Pratyahar . . . the ultra-focus of your brains capacity. This allows you to employ all of your conscious power, even the powers that hide beyond your imagination. In this miraculous realm, what is to be . . . already is.
Count on this as a fact. Allow it to fill your sails with hope and courage. You will need this hope and courage to face the new doubts that will inevitably come your way . . . this hope and courage will meet them with a smile.

Ignorance may be bliss, but it is still ignorant. Ignorance is never being without the knowledge . . . it is simply ignoring the knowledge so thoroughly that it appears to not exist. Ignorance takes away your choices and leaves you with only a chance or a charge. Chance is when you allow the gamble — the non-choice — to make your decisions. Charge is when knee-jerk reactions based on feelings — not your consciousness — make your decisions.
Ultimately the bliss of ignorance is an unrewarding and thankless bliss . . . not something that will expand your consciousness, or evolve the Soul, or contribute. Allowing decisions to be made by chance has far more limits than opportunities. Allowing them to be made by charge runs the constant risk of ending up in a circumstance that has more chaos than accuracy . . . the majority of the time.
Learn to be knowledgeable not ignorant. Learn to take responsibility for your choices and make them with this conscious knowledge. Learn to find bliss in other ways . . . find it in your knowing; find it in your learning and in your intentions. Become accurate and compassionate with your outcomes. This is more honest — definitely more work — but ultimately far more blissful.

Pause creates the introspection and a larger perspective of perception . . . the ability to sort more deeply through life's various factors that gather like dust on its surface. This then activates the desire and the ability to choose which factors to follow . . . which paths to travel . . . rather than insistently traveling the habitual and perpetuated ones. Life becomes real choices rather than charges and chances.
Life with pause has the clarity of a cause . . . life with clarity of cause has the dignity of being fresh, without fearing the unknown aspects that always accompany this freshness. Life with pause provides grace where there has previously been stress.
Create moments of pause in your life and extend them into days per month and weeks per year. This is living consciously.

If you stop telling your very old stories for a moment long enough to established a new series of stories then a conversation will open up to replace the argument. You will stop feeding the opinions that nourish the beliefs that cause the internal conversation to define time as a struggle. Suddenly there appears an innocent sense of ease where dis-ease once lived and the need for all sides to hold firmly to their positions is lost like the passing of a wind.
Remember: in the material universe — "for every action there is a reaction, equal and opposite." This holds true for a conversation as well. If you want to diminish a reaction, then you must turn down the volume and intensity of your action. The harder you push — the harder will be the 'push-back'.
Think of this in terms of your personal relationships all the way up to international peace . . . there is a common pathway forward. Lao Tse (father of Taoism and Aikido) said it best, "To remove the opposition's opposition; you must allow your own position to become free and flexibly in motion . . . all the while compassionately retaining your intent." This is a key to creative non-violence.

Life takes place both inside of you and outside of you. All that is taking place outside of you, around you and to you, is on the film that is inside you. It is then being projected on to the screens of your world . . . the people places and things are these screens. The light of creation shines through the film of your fate or your destiny and onto the screens that exist in your world; you live with and live in what appears on these screen.
Your husband or wife - mother and father - all your relatives and friends and acquaintances and enemies, they are all there on the film. Everything else is there too; everything that ever happens to you is on the film . . . projecting out onto the screens that surround you . . . happening in the movie of your life . . . your world.
You can never change what is happening on the screen — in your story — by changing to a different screen, or even to a different theatre. This means that you cannot change what is happening in your life by changing out the people in your life . . . they are just a part of the screen. The movie might look slightly different with the different texture of the new screen, but it is still the same movie.
The only way to change what is happening in your world is to change what is happening in your film . . . to change the film of fate into a film of destiny. The only way to make real change is to alter what is on your film.
The way to do this is to develop a consistent practice that allows you to work on the inside where the film exists. The film exists in what is called the unconscious — made up of the subconscious and the superconscious. The subconscious is where the engine to your 'desperations' and "demons" lives — this drives much of your emotional, "knee-jerk" reactions to what takes place in your life story. The superconscious is where the engine to your 'aspirations' and "angels" lives — this drives much of your more compassionate and a comprehensive response to what takes place in your life story.
Yoga and chanting prepare the body and brain to allow you to make deep connections with the subconscious and superconscious. Meditation uses these secure connections to make the necessary changes to the story on your film. Think of all the exciting ways you can meditate - sitting on the floor, sitting in a chair, walking, loving, running, skiing, surfing, hiking, staring, reading, singing, knitting, sewing, painting, playing music, day-dreaming, night-dreaming, being . . . just to name a very few. Prepare your body and brain and do this and then choose your favorite way.
You do have the power to be who you desire, to have what you want, to experience what you wish . . . if you take the time to make changes to the film and stop thinking that the screens in your life are in control of your story.

Life came to you without real limits — make it very clear in your consciousness — the limits are not necessarily yours. The limitations you've been given are not laws — they are very often merely generational - or genealogical - or socially structured "suggestions." They have been in place for a very long time and the suggestions are nearly carved in stone, but when you test them you will learn that they are not absolute.
Learn to ignore them — it will test your courage to the very core — but it will also help you to live with more honesty and a greater love for adventure. It will create your relationships with more passion and trust and commit you to your highest destiny.
Learn to think in this way on a daily basis . . . learn to write and rewrite all the governing rules of - who you are — and — who you can become. Learn to disassemble your opinions of what is possible and give yourself the entitlement that the most entitled are able to live by.
Learn to create level playing fields on a daily basis . . . then the game of life is fair . . . then the game of life becomes real . . . then the game of life has integrity.

Healing is not curing. Being without reasons — without conditions — is what delivers the miraculous healing powers to the miracles of faith. If today's medicine is about curing disease; then we are not speaking of medicine . . . or the world of medicine.
In healing, we speak of the way things are naturally at ease and then intend to remove what causes them to appear other than at ease. Healing is removing the noise that has gathered around the music and the harmony of the music, so that the music may once again be heard. If we want to call this a miracle — so be it — but it is, in fact, simply the way things are.
Healers do not practice medicine . . . they practice nature.

The physical body is 75% water and the rest is dust . . . water mixes life-force into the dust, as Spirit — born into the physical body — rebirths in Spirit.
Re-birthing into spirit — the ultimate goal of evolution — is to be simultaneously alive in the physical while being fully aware in Spirit. The great Sikh sage and master—Guru Nanak—said, "Being truly alive is to be alive in worlds upon worlds — Universes upon Universes — lives upon lives . . . is to be liberated."
In this state — no longer controlled by feelings, needs and wants — you are more fully alive than life can imagine. Make the most outstanding use of the water as it gathers your dust and returns you to Spirit. Make the greatest impression on this planet for no reason other than the opportunity to bless what you have been gifted.

At times it is right to focus on the very large and the very fast. At other times however, in the path of the large and the fast, you will become easily confused. Confusion is a sign of searching for the gateway . . . it also be a sign of being out of pace and outside of your accurate perception. It is not a bad thing — it is an indicator and indicators are good if you follow their signals. They can then become precursors to breaking through. You will need to make some determinations.
Either way, when you are confused — when the path is blurry — slowing down is an alternative . . . not a sign of weakness. The alternative of getting down to the slow and calm, the tiny and the infinitesimally small, can often be exactly what you need. This is the meditative process.
Embrace alternatives and discover in the warp and the woof, the detailed weave of life's fabric . . . the pattern that has gotten you to where you are. It is time to discover and examine these patterns. Make the determination whether your pattern is to be continued, retraced or altered.
When you make this determination once again, resynchronize your pace and pattern with that of your goal. Allow these variations to become the new joys of your life; merge into them, even though they feel unknown. Allow these new and unknown feelings to slowly become acceptable . . . to become the new familiar. This is what is known as growing up . . . this is being alive. These are some of the benefits of getting confused.
