This
week I am focusing on a subject the universe really wants me to get
out there. I guess it would come under the topic of getting started
with a spiritual lifestyle, and "It's easier to be spiritual, then
it is to become spiritual." Here is a simple exercise to
help get you started:
You
go through your day, relatively routine. How many times a day does
someone say "thank you" to you? You buy your morning coffee and
get a thank you from the cashier. Maybe you get a few more like that
during the day. Tomorrow, be Spiritual Aware, and count how many you
get in the course of your day. Furthermore, take note from who gives
them to you and quality of the thank you. A clerk thanking you for
buying morning coffee is a low level thank you from the view point of
spirituality.
On
day two, your goal is to end the day by receiving 21 thank you's. Why
21? I don't know, but I have learned to trust these messages. The universe wasn't clear on that, but 21 is the
number. The only way for you to get 21 thank you's is to send out
some form of low level charitable energy. Do something for a
co-worker, help a family member, and assist a friend. It doesn't
have to be massive energy, just enough to generate 21 thank you's by
the end of the day.
It
sounds easy, but it took me 4 days to accomplish it. I am always
telling you, when you invest spiritual energy, the universe will send
it back to you in a way you can't imagine. However, you must invest
energy without expecting anything in return, or it is not charitable
energy. This is the basis for creating new paths of destiny through
your relationships. Every soul you encounter during your day is a
relationship, according to the universe. Your soul can only evolve
through relationships.
At
the end of my 4 days, I was rewarded just as I said the universe
will. Again, rewarded beyond what I could expect to gain. Reward
is probably not the best word, the universe gave me charitable energy
in return. I am battling the Temptation to list what those rewards
were because that would just seem to make the point of this whole
newsletter. However, I can't. The temptation (greed) of focusing on
the return would take you away from the power of the light. The only
goal of temptation.
Instead,
draw on the power of faith (that you believe) and charity (that you
give) and watch how you can create a small but new path of destiny
for yourself. This simple exercise will teach you just how easy it is
to have the powers of the universe work for you. Once you learn to ride a bike, you can focus on how far and how fast you can go.
You can have many
reasons for not doing this exercise, but be spiritually aware of the
most likely reason: Sloth. Sloth is a power of temptation that means
you do nothing. If you do nothing, you obviously can't evolve your
soul, and temptation was successful in keeping you from the power of
the light.
Here
is this weeks message from the universe. I hope you use it to tap
into the power of the light.
