“Souls of Beauty Dwelling Amongst Us”

Idealists dream of a perfect world—a world of peace and harmony, where all reflects the beauty of Divine life. Can such a world of beauty be contemplated as a possibility? Mystical awareness knows that what may seem to be idealistic wanderings of the imagination might be glimpses into a Higher Reality.

Anything of a true Higher Reality brings one’s mind closer to Universal Consciousness or God. There are many levels of Beingness and souls that correspond to each level, and the Christ Mind that was in Jesus alluded to this Mystical Reality of Beingness in the words, “In my Father’s house are many mansions.” At each higher level souls draw nearer and nearer to the Universal Creative Presence or God.

“Mystical Power of Advanced Thinking”

What would it be like if a person were born into, and lived in, a world of advanced thinkers? What knowledge would such advanced thinkers have at their disposal? What would they value most in all of their highly developed thinking? Let us first define what is meant by advanced thinkers.

An advanced thinking society would be one where the discoveries of science and spirituality have merged, and people would see that they complement and add to one another. Mysticism itself would be considered a divine science, or science of the soul. Scientists and mystics would walk arm in arm, embracing the common truths revealed, and people would be taught from childhood the ancient mystical truths that are increasingly confirmed by science.

“Improving Relationships with Others”

How a person interacts with others is often and undeniably a key factor in whether their life is succeeding or failing. Through decades of observing and counseling people, I have come to realize that it is not necessarily how bright one may be intellectually that assures success, but how one gets along with others. In a corporate atmosphere, this is often referred to as being a team player.

At times, this may present a dilemma for a spiritual and idealistic person, as what may often be good for a corporation may not be beneficial for the general public or consumer. Thus, one’s spiritual conscience—or God’s Presence—may rebel.

There is often a fine line between getting along and the inner need to do what you feel God is directing you to do, such as what you feel is right. Such decisions are not confined to those in the boardroom, but sift down to all levels of the workforce.

“How to Survive Difficult Periods in Your Life”

You can survive difficult periods in your life. The probability is that you already have. Difficult periods in our lives seem to be a natural course of how life unfolds in the human panorama of events. These challenging phases may include health, income, career, family, friends, spouse, and love relationships.

In other words, just about anything of major concern may be affected. Your emotions during such periods can run from mild to deeply intense. If it is a truly difficult stage in your life, it is likely that the emotions you are experiencing are deep-seated.

Some demanding periods can be life-changing and challenging. A death or transition of someone you deeply love can provoke a devastatingly difficult phase. Similarly, divorce can be like a death to one’s way of life and can bring on an extremely hard interlude. The reality that one comes to know, as one goes through life, is that there will be difficult periods, but how will these hard times be handled or survived? When your emotions are taxed to the limit, which can set up a negative chain reaction affecting you in numerous ways, how do you best survive all that is taking place.?
