Take the time every day to touch into this Reality and you will find the Peace that is at the core of your Being.
Conversation
God and I in space alone
and nobody else in view.
"And where are the people, O Lord," I said,
"the earth below and the sky o'er head
and the dead whom once I knew?"
"That was a dream," God smiled and said,
"A dream that seemed to be true.
There were no people, living or dead,
there was no earth, and no sky o'er head;
there was only Myself -- in you."
"Why do I feel no fear," I asked,
"meeting You here this way?
For I have sinned I know full well--
and is there heaven, and is there hell,
and is this the Judgment Day?"
"Nay, those were but dreams,"
the Great God said,
"Dreams that have ceased to be.
There are no such things as fear or sin;
there is no you -- you never have been--
there is nothing at all
but Me."
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
You are an invisible fullness, a field of latent possibilities from which all things emerge.
Behind the universe moves this unnamable mystery. It is a pregnant state of love, energy, and intelligence, ready to continually give birth to new forms and absorb old and wasted ones in order to give them rebirth in new form again.
This invisible, unnamable mystery and fullness is infinite possibility. The processes of change, transformation and rebirth are the very fabric of the universe and they occur in this field of potential and latent possibilities.
Contemplate the infinite potential and possibilities that you are. The well of living waters you have to draw upon is unlimited. You can not and are not defined or limited by any role, experience, or lifetime you have had or are having. Allow yourself to experience/feel the full promise of who You ARE. Embrace the Mystery and Majesty of Your Self! Enter the Silence! Meditate! Embrace the Unknown! Embrace Your Self!

This is a continuation of a blog I posted on June 22. It is the last in series of entries I will post on Intuition for now.
Five Ways to Help Workout Your Intuitive Muscles:
1. Create the intention to use your Intuition and the numerous techniques suggested in previous posts by regularly reminding yourself, “I want to use my Intuition.”
2. Constantly pay attention to and be on the lookout for feelings or impressions. It is a very spontaneous, subtle process
3. Trust the feelings and impressions you get. Don’t ignore them.
4. Have the courage to act on your impressions. Be intu-active!
5. Monitor the process. Keep an “Intuitive Hunch Journal” so you can keep tabs on how often you are right.
6. Begin using your Intuition with smaller issues and then gradually move on to the bigger ones.
Intuition helps one be more decisive, swift, clear and accurate in decision-making. Success is an inside job. Develop your intuitive muscles and be intuitively fit. Increase your Intuitive Intelligence IQ. You’ll be amazed at how good you get at it and at how easy it is!
During the last month or so I have been blogging about Intuition. I will continue on this topic this week and will be offering you further specific techniques on how to develop your Intuition. You might also want to go back and review what I have written previously. In effect, I have been offering a mini-course on “How to Develop Your Intuition.” Next week I will blog on a different topic.
When I worked on the polio vaccine, I had a theory.
I guided each [experiment] by imagining myself in the phenomenon in which I was interested.
The intuitive realm . . . the realm of the imagination guides my thinking.
Intuition will tell the thinking mind where to look next.Jonas Salk
Learning to use your Intuition is like learning a new language. As you get practiced and fully conversant in the new language you are learning, you no longer need to think about what you are going to say, it just comes flowing out of you.
So, too, Intuition can become second nature for you. Instead of thinking in a left-brain, analytical mode all the time, you learn to “think” in a right brain way, too. Instead of experiencing paralysis through too much analysis, you can experience great success and fulfillment through inspired creativity.
Intuition uses a “language” that is made up of pictures and feelings. Over time you can create a very easy to use “language” that you make up yourself. For example, if you want to get a “read” on someone or some situation, just visualize them as a car, a book, an animal, etc and “see” what impressions come to you.
See what kind of car, book, animal, etc comes to you and then trust that the “feeling” or image that you get is an accurate “read” of the person or situation. In time you will learn to trust your impressions and very easily, accurately and quickly get a “read” on a person or situation with this simple, yet very powerful tool.
Please see my next blog post for further suggestions on how to access your Intuition.

This is a continuation of a post I made last Monday 06/12/06:
As well, as you are walking down the street and something or someone catches your attention, Notice! Pay attention! There are no coincidences. The Universe is talking to you all the time. It is reflecting back to you something you need to “see” or know. Read the ‘signs” in your life. They are showing you something about yourself. Everything speaks to you! Watch the language of life’s symbols.
For example, my wife recently was contemplating a change in her job. She was offered a new position, but was unclear whether it would be the best move for her. So, she decided to stop thinking about it and just trust that she would be guided. So, one day while driving back on her regular commuting route, she saw a sign at a Real Estate office that just jumped out at her. It read: “It’s Time to Move Now!” The sign had been up for ages, but that was the first time she “saw” it. She knew at that moment that it was time to change. And by the way, her new job is a million times better than the old one.
Lastly, when you are in a conversation with someone, really “feel” every word they are speaking rather than “think” about what they are saying. Also become aware of the spaces and pauses between their words. Don’t get lost in your mindless chatter or theirs. This is the key! “Listen” more to their energy and less to the content of their words. There is usually more information in their silence or the “feeling” they are projecting than in their actual words.
So, just “feel” what they are really saying. Really pay attention! This is how to best understand and to be present for a person. As well, it is the best way to develop your intuitive faculties.
The last few weeks I have been blogging about Intuition. I will continue on this topic this week and will be offering you further specific techniques on how to develop your Intuition. You might want to go back and review what I have written. In effect, I am giving you a mini-course on “How to Develop Your Intuition.”
In time, as you keep working with your intuition, you will come to realize that everything is a “feeling.” Thus, in time, you will always remember to place your awareness into things to discover how they “feel” rather than be in your head trying to mentally figure things out from surface impressions and judgments.
So, to further refine your intuition why not approach how you understand things in the following way: How does this tree “feel?” How does this situation at work “feel?” How does this person “feel?” How does a crow “feel” as it flies? How does this business proposal “feel?” Is it safe, crooked? So, how do things “feel?”
First asking yourself how a situation, object or person “feels” is the initial step in learning how to access your intuition. This is the basic training with which you will learn the rudiments of intuition. But note that this system is not foolproof, for sometimes your perceptions get cluttered with your beliefs, projections, analysis, etc., but the more you use your intuitive faculties, the more accurate and sensitive they become.
So, how does the crow “feel” when it flies? Take a few minutes to close your eyes and become one with the crow and see what he/she has to tell you.
And how does this new person you recently met “feel?” Take a few minutes to close your eyes and sense what he/she has to tell you.
Remember that for you to develop your intuition, you must exercise it! So, quiet your mind and open your heart and “feel!”
To be continued on Wednesday.

The last few weeks I have been blogging about Intuition. I will continue on this topic this week and will offer you more techniques on how to develop your Intuition. Please feel free to go back and review the previous entries, as well.
Here is a simple and very effective way to hone your intuition. As an unfamiliar person passes by you, visualize yourself reaching out into their heart area; and then with your mind blank, just ask: How do they feel? The first answer that comes to your mind is the correct one. Don’t think about the person, your mind will lead you astray.
Keep practicing on hundreds and thousands of people, and in time, you will not have to reach out to them, you’ll just know by looking at them. You can practice this on people you know, as well. You can do this for people at a distance, too. In time, you will pick up a lot of information about a person in this way.
In doing this you are not judging the person nor are you looking at them intellectually. You are sensing them with your Intuition. You are observing them with the eyes and heart of your Soul. If you don’t judge a person with your mind’s limiting belief systems, a higher sense of awareness comes forward. You see the God within them because you are seeing them from the “God”-ness within you.
So, just play with this technique for awhile and see what happens.
The last few weeks I have been blogging about Intuition. I will continue on this topic this week and will offer you more techniques on how to develop your Intuition. Please feel free to go back and review the previous entries, as well.
In order to improve your intuition, you must exercise it. Here are a few more exercises:
Find a stone or crystal and notice everything there is to be noticed about it---its size, shape, smell, indentations, coloring, weight, etc. Next imagine yourself inside it and become it---listen for the silence within it. What is it saying? What does it feel like being inside of it? What wisdom has it to impart to you? What kind of personality does it have? Why has it come to you now?
Don’t think as you do this, just feel! Stay with it for a few minutes so that you can fully connect with its essence. Keep your mind still and your heart open and listen.
Next focus your attention on a flower and do the same as you did above. Actually, you can do this with any object.
So, have fun and just practice getting a “feel” for things. Stop always “thinking” about things. You’ll be amazed at what you learn about the object you have put your attention on when you “feel” instead of “think.” As well, you will be surprised about what you learn about yourself in the process, too.

Learn to anticipate with your intuition what is going to happen next. Don’t guess, in other words, don’t use the mind. Train yourself to learn how to read the energy of a situation or person so you know what will happen next. The more you ask of your intuition, the more you get used to using it to gather the information you want.
For example, when a person is talking to you, anticipate their next few words; then anticipate their next sentence, and so on. In a given situation, decide how a pattern will unfold before it does. In a supermarket, anticipate what aisle a person will turn down or what product they will buy. Anticipate when a driver before you will turn off the road. Pick someone in a mall, at the beach, etc and anticipate what they will do next.
By constantly going into your intuitive faculty to ask for information about events that are going to happen, you train it to “read” the energy patterns of life. Thus you move from the cognitive mind and guesswork to intuition and feeling. Eventually you will become so accurate at reading patterns that you almost always know what is going to happen before it does. Use this technique at least ten to fifteen times a day.
