Illuminating the Paths of Others
As we progress through the 21st century, humanity will experience changes and conditions that were unheard of in the past. At such times, there may be no one we can rely upon except ourselves. If we have a firm, clear awareness of our essential identity as beings of love, our own unerring thoughts will absolutely guide us toward peace, radiance, and happiness. Even if the world around us appears to be steeped in conflict and misery, our minds will hold no fear or anxiety at all.
Not only that, the radiance that we emit will help to illuminate the paths of others. As we become increasingly conscious of our inner truth as beings of love, a mystical, universal wisdom, light, and healing power will be able to flow through us, coming to the aid of those who are suffering. I cannot begin to express how the universe is counting on the power of our daily, love-filled words and actions. Through this power—the power of love—the world is already changing.
In order that each of us might make the greatest possible difference in the times ahead, I would like to suggest that we make a positive affirmation to ourselves every day. For example, we might say: From now on, I will never use any negative words at all! Nor will I give my energy to any negative news, gossip, rumors, or predictions that may be circulating around me. I will not give even one iota of my power to any negative words. From moment to moment and day to day, in my words, thoughts, and actions, I will express the power of love!
Before anything else, it is important for each of us to put this kind of affirmation into practice. If even ten or twenty thousand people do this, an enormous change will occur throughout society. I sincerely hope that each of us will pay close attention to the words that we speak, choosing each one carefully and consciously. For the rest of our lives, up to the moment when we die, I deeply hope that we will speak, think, and express words of love alone.
Whatever the time, whatever the place, whatever the situation, whatever kind of mood we are in, let us continue to express love. Expressions of love are the driving force that change our future and the future of the world. Each and every day, from the moment you wake up in the morning, I hope you will join with me in expressing only love to yourself and others. Let us perform only good actions, emit only good thoughts, and speak only good words. Let us express gratitude and joy to our children, our husbands and wives, partners, friends and acquaintances, societies, and nations. Let us show everyone, starting first and foremost with our own precious selves, how wonderful it is to live. From this day forward, let us start to truly live with an awakened consciousness, for the sake of ourselves and all life on Earth.
The future is waiting to be created. |
