Jealousy Can Guide Us

If we can resist the urge of jealousy and envy to pull us deeply into the fantasies we weave about ourselves and others–‘she has this or that, and I have nothing’–we can see them as signposts that point the way to a truth about ourselves, and use their appearance as an urgent call to look within.

– Emma Varvaloucas, “Jealousy & Envy “

May you be free from suffering and the causes of suffering!

One thing’s for sure…If any one of us unleashes our creativity, our world will split open. We’ll find unprecedented ways of solving problems and expressing our souls, and our lives will be forever changed.

Gaining Insight from Obstacles

Using meditation or therapy to try to shut down parts of our experience is ultimately counterproductive. We do not have to be afraid of entering unfamiliar territory once we have learned how to hold experience within the gentleness of our own minds. Learning to transform obstacles into objects of meditation provides a much needed bridge between the stillness of the concentrated mind and the movement of real life.

Every time life brings you to a crossroads, from the tiniest to the most immense, go toward love, not away from fear. Think of every choice in terms of “What would thrill and delight me?” rather than “What will keep my fear–or the events, people, and things I fear–at bay?”

Right now, many of us feel an immense shift in the way humans live in this world. That shift, while benevolent, comes from within, rather than from our culture. That means your inner compass will inevitably tell you to break society’s expectations. Maybe that’s happening right now. If not, wait a few minutes. It’s coming.

Letting life lead IS so very creative–and kind, each and every moment. The voices of ego would have us believe everything has to be huge, special, and larger than life (a fascinating expression), but when we’re truly HERE, we realize that the simplest expression is divinity itself.

Step into Self-Forgiveness

It will come as no surprise that one of the most difficult people to forgive can be yourself. Yet with patience and gentle determination, it can be done.
