The tempurature dipped down past -40 degrees Celcius with windchill almost reaching -50.......yes, it is cold, really cold.  Weather like this brings many to think about their life and where they are going.....

Have you ever asked yourself "If I could do anything what would I do?"  If so, do you allow yourself to ask this questiosn often?

So many of us go through our day and just become benign.  We stopping asking what we want and decide to take what we are getting.  We complain, or we fight against it.  Why?

So things are not meant to be changed but are meant to be learned from, and change can only occur with in the flow and not by pushing against it, so I ask again, how often do you ask yourself, "If I could do anything what would I do?"

We are taught we control everything external, yet it is the thoughts we have that create the world we see and feel.

Do you actually control the external? You have so much proof that shows no matter how hard you try to make something happen or stop something from happening, it happens anyway.  You also have proof that if you wish for something and then let it go, it just seems to happen.

You will think "I wish I had.....'  and then *poof* one day when you least expect it....it is there.

The simplicity of the law of attraction, however most people do not really understand how this works.  If you work and focus on getting what you think you want, sometimes you begin to fear you may not get it.  As soon as that fear enters the Universe answers to the thought of you not getting it, and thus you do not realize your dream and what you wanted.

It is a slippery slope.  To live the life we want is to know what we have and be thankful for it.

It is to be humble, and yes in awe but not so much awe that you can't believe all these great things are happening for you.  If you believe that, then your ego has once again taken over and you will not see the gifts in the moment for you will believe they are fleeting and not apart of daily life.

So as you read this, ask yourself to name 5 things you really love to have or do - walk, music, potatoe chips, a good cup of coffee/tea, a bath, a run.......name it.  The next time you are having a moment of stress, take look at your list and allow yourself to do one of those things.

You have your one answers, you know what to do, you just have to remind yourself of that.

Remember to ask for what you want, and KNOW you will get what you need.  Remember, it is within the knowing that we will allow what we want to be realized in this reality.

To chase your dreams is to truly believe you will never catch them, it is better to live them in each moment........it causes less stress :)

Have a wonderful day!!!!!!

The train of thought has been that if one is ill it means there is a message, however it seems that some believe that the 'enlightened' should never be ill at all.

This leads to worry among those who are on the path to enlightenment as they feel something is desperately wrong if they become ill.

What I have found is illness, no matter how severe, is a gift, and it is not always meant to be cured.

If you are a cronic pain suffer, it does not mean you are not doing what you need to do.  The gift within is to teach you to still be content with what you have been given.

We have all known someone who has faced death due to illness and watched them be calm as those around them are not.  Illness is a gift.

So the next time you feel sick, say thank you and then look for the gift within.  It is time to slow down, change something, or maybe change the way you are thinking?

Trust your faith and know you only ever recieve what you are able to handle.

Blessed be, AuKeeRa

What does it mean to be spiritual?  Does it mean to go to church?  Does it mean to recruit or save others?  What does it mean?!! 

Spirituality does not seem to have much in common with Religion these day, althoug there are those with in religion who are, in fact, very spiritual.  To be spiritual means to live with in your spirit, or connected to your spirit.  So first you must find out who your are and what you believe in. 

Spirituality is not found in religion although religion may aid one on their path.  True spirituality lies in the nurturing on your own spirit, belief system, and the developement of blind faith.

Few religious (and spiritual) people truly have blind faith.  But what is blind faith?  It is KNOWING everything will be okay even when it is not okay.  It is allowing yourself to live your life knowing you are doing what you are meant to do and all those around you are doing what they are meant to do.

If you live in Blind faith, you will find there is no need to save anyone or decide anyone's belief is wrong.  You will see and trust that God/the universe (or what you call your force) has a perfect plan for everyone and each moment has a perfect purpose that leads to the next. 

Many people seeking spirituality or enlightenment think that when you reach enlightenment that you will no longer have human emotions, or worry.  Enlightenment means you are able to live within those emotions and life situations while remaining content while you are feeling sad, angry, hopeless, or mad.  You ego's voice nor your emotions cease no mattter how enlightened you get.  The ego and your emotions are gifts of being human.

SO what does that mean!!!!  Does it mean I am never going to feel good?  Where do I go then?  Who do I follow?  Who is going to teach me?

You do not need a teacher as so to speak.  We are all teachers as we are all students.  The best teachers teach without knowing they teach.  When you are ready, something will always come into your life to show you where you are going next.  Trust yourself, trust your universe and trust your thoughts.

Become aware of your ego's voice and learn not to buy into it's drama, but learn to add in another voice.  The 'negative thoughts' of the ego are a part of us, and we must learn to balance them with the  'positive thoughts' of the 'higher self'.  We will always have BOTH of these thoughts in our mind.  Right now most of us only have the ego and its rantings to listen to.  It will take time and practice to add back in that other voice as you have spent a lifetime now nurturing the voice of the ego without even realizing it.

But remember, there are no mistakes and you have done nothing wrong :) 

So do not stop the voice of the ego, add in another voice, another thought,  Evolve your thoughts by adding in, not trying to stop or take away.

What do my thoughts have to do with my spirituality?

Within your thoughts lies your perception of what is around you and happening in your life.  As you learn to make your thoughts nicer to listen to, you will see a more content world around you.  As you see this world, you will feel more content yourself and be able to connect to and hear the voice of what you believe in. 

We are always being guided.  The guidance is within us, and every single person has it.  Every single person is loved and accepted by this force no matter their belief, religion, race, or past.  This force is always creating and always loving and we are an extension of it.

So trust yourself.  Add in some new thoughts today.  Don't chastise yourself if you are thinking horrible thoughts about yourself or others, simply take the time to add in thoughts of "I love you" "All is well in my world" or even "Thank you"  Simple thoughts bring great contentment as our thoughts are way more powerful than we realize they are.

Have a wonderful day and know you can find your way through this world.........

By rights as humans we are able to channel information from our pure source.  The voice is quiet and often ego tries to take over.  This becomes the biggest challenge when channeling to ensure it is information needed for yourself or your ego wanting the floor.

The ego tells you that what others are doing is wrong and you need to save the world.  The higher self aids you to recieve information that will aid you to live by example.  Those who run around telling others they are wrong and they must change (giving unsolicited advice) are working from ego.  If, when you are channeling information, the voice is ever cruel or condisending in anyway, it is your ego and you are not channeling.

Most information channeled is only meant for the person it has been channeled to inorder to aid their life.  We often see channeled works published for others to read or follow.  However, remember, you can channel your knowledge for you.

Once you start receiving your own answers and information do not run around feeling you have everyone's answers and information, we are all human, equal and unique.  We are all able to receive the information we need and guide ourselves on the path we are meant to be on.

So how do I channel?

1)  Start with yes/no question.
    Ask a question.  You will immeditatly feel/hear a yes or a no.  Do not question it.  Write it down and go to the next questions. 

Working with yes/no questions will aid you to feel your gut/spirit or channeled answer.  Practice this and do not question it.  Many of us don't want to hear it that simple, but it is. 

2)  Write a question then write the answer you hear/feel. 
    This is called automatic writing.  It is where you are channeling your answer through writing.  It takes abit of practice as the force we believe in does not speak in English, but vibration.  Therefore it takes a bit to learn how to translate what you hear.  Often when you go back to reread it, it may not make sense, but it will have made sense when you wrote it.

Work to find your own answers in daily life.  Allow the ability to channel/pray to bring you peace and the knowing you are loved and supported.  The biggest accomplishment you can have in this life is to live each moment contently. 

Don't think you are suppose to change the world externally, start internally and the shift will occur everywhere else automatically. 

Through living by example, finding our answers, living in blind faith, and trusting others are our equals and also capable, will bring us to an existance we have, until now, only dreamed of.
