He tells us the book is about “personal alchemy and inner transformation”.
It’s about “staying open all hours for miracles”,
He tells us about “the Unconditioned Self”. It is the “real you”, your original potential.
He gives us an affirmation - “I am what I seek”.
We’re told that the fear that there’s something wrong with us is our greatest block to joy – there is no other block.’
It will look as though life is against us, as though others reject us.
There is nothing wrong with us, though our perception can be “sick”, or our thinking be off.
Shift happens whenever we practice unconditional self—acceptance, choose kindness instead of judgement, and forgiveness instead of self-attack.
The final and only act of healing is to accept that there is nothing wrong with us.
Try this exercise today. Make a point of looking for the good in everyone you meet. “Mentally bow to the light in everyone you meet today.” As you offer this light to others, so will you strengthen it in yourself.
The author’s father drank himself to death; he lived homeless on the street for ten years. His mother suffered deep depression and tried to kill herself twice.’
We all know what it is to suffer, But this is not our identity, who or what we are,
There is a difference between “I experienced failure” and “I am a failure”.
We are not our suffering.
When Robert graduated, he made a vow to treat people, not ilnesses. He will not define people as their illnesses.
Whatever we identify with, we attract more of. When we identify with suffering, we attract more suffering.
Shift happens when you let go of attachment to suffering.
Take time today to honour all your experiences. Smile, and let each one go. They are not us. Above all, you are not an illness, you are not made of pain, and you are not your mistakes,
Separation is the great illusion. The truth is, you are not separate from anything, ever. “There is no time and space between you and God. The same is true between you and your Unconditional Self.”
“Separation is the great disease of mankind.” It is because you are separate from the rest of life that you experience lack, struggle, conflicts, illness, and pain.’
Begin each new day with this prayer. “Dear God, Today I give up the thought of separation. Amen.”
Affirm to yourself daily.
“In me is all of Heaven.
In Heaven is all of me.”
The ego is not real: it is just an idea.
The ego is the sum total of all your small ideas about yourself, It sees you as separate, isolate, and cut off from the whole.
The more you love, the more you get what you really want. Love and egos cannot co-exist. Love is wholeness. Love detoxifies the ego!
Independence is inspired not by love, but fear, and not by wholeness but aloneness. “Independence is the ego’s attempt to be its own God.”
We are provided with some telltale signs of our being dysfunctionally independent.
We are exhausted.
We never ask for help.
We never let anyone give to us.
Intimacy is unfamiliar and scary.
You think being single is being free.
You try to heal on your own.
Atheism is your revenge on God.
Imagine, maybe all of the universe is here to support you.
God is a God of unconditional love. When you reach for God, you are simply reaching for the highest in yourself,
We’re told that the first law of personal alchemy states “The world changes when you do”.
Imagine for a moment that the world is not a physical place that is separate from you, but rather a projection of your state of mind.
Robert quotes Shakespeare: “There is nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so.”
What you believe will be what you perceive. A belief has no power othe than what you give it.
Shift happens when you change your beliefs.
These are few of the precepts introduced to us by the author. But the book contains much more. I strongly recommend that you read it.… (más)
