Immersed in Divine Contentment by Laura Hyde
Baba Muktananda once said, "Contentment destroys the Ego." It's difficult to imagine how such a gentle virtue, how something so soft, can obliterate something so resistant as the ego. But think of the smile from a newborn and how it has the power to melt your heart. Or how only one sip of water can revive a person who has fainted.

Our Biggest Challenges
by Laura V Hyde
Anything we go through can be used on behalf of the greater unfolding of humankind. Barry Kaufman, speaker and writer on making "love a choice" devotes his life to helping others embrace love amidst the confusion of life's challenges. He embarked on this benevolent venture after his son was diagnosed as autistic, "...hopeless, unreachable, a tragedy." Yet the Kaufmans chose to keep their hearts open and to see their son as "brain blessed." Abundant with love, they poured their hearts reservoir onto their son and ignored the dismal feedback from medical experts. In 1995, their son graduated with honors in biomedical ethics from an Ivy League college. Over the years, the Kaufman's choice to view obstacles as gifts has empowered thousands of people who have been faced with "challenging opportunities".

Dreaming The World into Being
Alberto Villoldo
Whether you realize it or not, we are all dreaming the world into being. What we're engaging in is not the sleeping dream we're familiar with, but the waking dream we craft with our eyes open. When we're unaware that we all share the power to co-create reality with the help of the Universe itself, that power slips away from us and our dream turns into a nightmare. We begin to feel we're the victims of an unknown and frightening creation that we're unable to influence or change. Events seem to control us and trap us.
Introduction To Awareness

Introduction to Awareness
Life Is A Mirror - We get clues about our unconscious programming if we are mindful of our reactions, responses, feelings and thoughts about events and people... Ask yourself: What judgment am I making about this event or person? What pushes my buttons? What makes me angry or fearful or sad?
The outer incidents that trigger these reactions in us simply MIRROR our own nature. If we didn't have beliefs around the issues that upset us, where would our reactions come from? If we didn't have some internal reference, we wouldn't react at all...
When outer events spark a reaction, we need to look inside to explore what's going on. Become more watchful of the thoughts that trigger those internal fears... become more aware of the buttons that are pushed to bring up these fears and then change the underlying beliefs and watch yourself shift from the self-centered, controlling behaviors of the ego to the power, love and wisdom of the soul!
The Transition
Written by Brenda Shoop
There is a lesson to be drawn from the way in which a snake sheds its skin. A snake senses that a new skin has formed under the old one, so it searches for a crack or a small hole in the rocks, and works its way in. It must force itself to pass through the 'narrow gate', and this is difficult. But when it comes out of this narrow passage, the snake has a new skin, the old one having been rubbed off..
In the same way, each one of us must one day pass through the 'narrow gate' in order to shed our old skin, which means our old ideas, habits and ways of thinking. This moment will come for you as well. Of course, the transition will be difficult, but do not be troubled and do not be afraid... Rejoice in the fact that you will shed your old skin and become a new being with greater understanding, a more generous heart and a way of living that can only bring blessings to others!

Message from the Angels - Celebrate the springtime of your souls. Be as gentle with yourselves as you would with a newborn baby, because each of you is going through a rebirthing phase - an emergence out of an old and confining way of being into a new and expansive reality..
