“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”

This is, as many of you may realize, a quote from the Buddha.

It also has been attributed as coming from many mouths. So be it.

The point is not who said it but what it conveys and means. Within this quote is the true secret of everything. The answer to all our challenges and the way out of whatever difficulties we find ourselves in.

Can it be as simple as that? Yes, because it is that which creates us. Who thinks the thoughts, creates them. There is no getting away from it.

The responsibility is here within.

That which is found to be difficult is implementing thoughts that create who we wish to be.So often we do not know who we are and therefore our thoughts are creating that which we are not.

Does this sound as if we are going round in circles? Because most times we are. We spend so much of our lives repeating ourselves, our habits that cause us grief and aggravation, yet we rarely attribute all this suffering to what we instigate in our thoughts.

Gain control , absolute control of your thoughts and you are free. Freedom is the domain within that no outside force can violate or control. No matter how helpless or vulnerable you feel you are, there is the sanctum sanctorum within where there can be no violation. Our thoughts.

If that is not enough to blow you away then what really is?

Can you begin to understand how powerful you are. How untouchable you remain?

Now if you then place the understanding that each thought focused on with enough intent must be every law of the universe, become manifest and be created in form.

As creators we individually have powers so great that it is mind boggling.

Yet I bet you do not believe that, do you?

If you did fully embrace it and believe it, your life would look a cosmos different from what it is now, this moment. You would in everyone else's eyes be living a charmed life.

Are you?

OK then, you maybe need to start to remember how to embrace and live this miraculous existence.

If that sounds like too much hard work, then accept everything that happens to you as having been created by you and only you. If you are not able to, then do not blame any one else for the ills that befall you. They are yours and yours alone.

No government did this to you, no crisis of financial, emotional or circumstantial nature did it to you or was created with you in mind. No unfair, unjust, irresponsible or unlucky event came your way without your participation or intent.

Whatever has happened, is happening or will ever happen was, is and will be because of you engaging your thinking to it, around it and towards it.

Everything has two sides to it.

For every question and statement there are two questions and two points of view.

"What do I want? and "What do I not want?"

"I am feeling rotten/poor/hard done by/unloved...."

" I am feeling really good/wealthy/that all my needs are met/loved...."

Who is it that chooses any of these to be our truth?

Yes, you and me alone.

Who decides on whether to feel good bad or ugly?

Me/you, correct.

If i am solely responsible for any of this then I also have the full and single power to choose which thought I think...REGARDLESS of whether I believe it or not, REGARDLESS of whether anyone else believes it or not.

I have the power to choose and in choosing and continuing to choose that thought and frame of mind then as sure as everything else has transpired for me, this will also.

It is the Law. The Law is immutable. It cannot be changed or altered. It is....just as energy is.

When we understand and begin to live our life within the confines of this understanding we begin to taste the pure beauty of freedom, of release from a past of untruth, bondage through the truths of others and the release fro many thought or suggestion of lack.

Wow, now that is a gift that is beyond value....that is why it is called the present. Within the present there is nothing other than what is. If that is good then celebrate and give thanks, if not then become it now.....

Next.... owning it all
