BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, March 19th, 2024 by Eugenia Oganova in MISSION ALPHA

“We cannot become an awakened Self without the desire to be the Self. We cannot become aware and powerful without going through all the powerlessness. To some extent powerlessness is necessary to show us what power is, because we learn through comparison in duality. It is naive to assume that when you welcome the universal flow you will suddenly leave behind all your troubles and “everything will be ok”…Truly free universal energy feels great, but when it first enters us, it of course will hit all the blocks we have, smashing them open. Don’t you think that might be uncomfortable?

Right, it usually is an uncomfortable process, because you have to re-evaluate your views on reality, and your ideas and beliefs. But do not despair, it is not an agony! Every time you feel the insecurity of your fear, you also gain more tolerance to it, and when you process the pain, you gain knowledge and experience, which end in wisdom and power. And so with each block the clearing becomes easier, even if the blocks themselves are painful. This is the reward for doing processing work! The blocks are not necessarily any less traumatic or painful, but they do not suck us in, do not scare us as much any longer, and do not define our reality, hence they are just uncomfortable. The wisdom is well worth it.”

Eugenia Oganova, in “Mission Alpha”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, March 18th, 2024 by Bonnie Glass-Coffin and don Oscar Miro-Quesada in LESSONS IN COURAGE

Compiler’s Note: Today marks the 25th anniversary of the “Ponder on This” message service. Back in 1999 I had no expectations of how long I’d be doing this service, and here we are a quarter century later. I may choose to end it after this year. We’ll see. In the meantime, a hearty thank you to all those who actually open and read these messages.

“After years of apprenticeship with my beloved teachers of both physical and non-physical realms, I live with this heartfelt conviction: The earth-honoring traditions of our planet’s original peoples provide a welcome alternative to all dogma. These traditions show us the way back to our spiritual roots as they offer us an intimate, reverent relationship with Pachamama, who is our beloved Earth mother. As we marvel at the patterns and beauty of the natural world, we learn to walk in gratitude for the gift of our lives. And as we play close attention to how her cycles, pulses, and rhythms are mirrored in ourselves, we gain a very clear understanding that we are not separate. Through this practice, we recognize ourselves as luminous strands in the great web of life.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, March 15th, 2024 by Neale Donald Walsch in FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD

“It is this very teaching of superiority that has caused so much pain in your world. The idea, deeply ingrained in a people, that they are somehow “better” than others may give them an extra measure of confidence. This is not self-confidence, but a dangerous brand of hubris that allows an entire population to believe itself to be in the right, no matter what it says or does.

People of many faiths and nations have believed and taught this through the years, producing a righteousness so huge that it desensitized them to any other experience, including the abject suffering of others. If there is one thing which it would benefit you to remove from your various cultural myths, it is this idea that, by means of some magic ingredient, you have been made better than some other humans; that yours is the superior race, or the superior faith, the better country or the better political system; the higher approach or the higher way.

I tell you this: the day that you cause cultures to do this is the day that you change the world. The word “better” is one of the most dangerous words in your vocabulary, exceeded only by the word “right.”  Both are connected, for it is because you think you are better that you think you are right. Yet I have made no ethnic or cultural group My chosen people, and I have made no path to Me the one true path. Neither have I singled out any nation or religion for special favor, nor given any gender or race superiority over another.”

God, as spoken to Neale Donald Walsch, in “Friendship with God”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, March 14th, 2024 by Mystic Pete in MYSTIC PETE CHRONICLES

“When you take the initiative to clean up the chaos in your life and act with compassion, like any self-respecting Heavenly being would, you will no longer need daddy/mommy/God to discipline you. You will discover that trouble stops showing up uninvited. Similarly, the faster humanity craws out of its sexually and emotionally immature larval phase, the less apocalyptical God will get on our ass.

Sickness, injury, and misfortune are often the Higher Self’s ways of getting your attention, so you stop and pay mind to Heaven’s guidance. Then you can hear the sacred whispers inside. If this inner transmission is voluntarily sought out, to the depth that the Higher Self requests, there will no longer be cause for personal catastrophe. People who listen to their inner guidance still go through difficulties, but their life doesn’t play like a Shakespearean tragedy.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, March 13th, 2024 by Fr. Anthony DeMello in AWARENESS

“Do you want to change the world? How about beginning with yourself? How about being transformed yourself first? But how do you achieve that? Through observation. Through understanding. With no interference or judgment on your part. Because what you judge you cannot understand.

When you say of someone, “He’s a communist,” understanding has stopped at that moment. You slapped a label on him. “She’s a capitalist.” Understanding has stopped at that moment. You slapped a label on her, and if the label carries undertones of approval or disapproval, so much the worse! How are you going to understand what you disapprove of, or what you approve of, for that matter?

All of this sounds like a new world, doesn’t it? No judgment, no commentary, no attitude: one simply observes, one studies, one watches, without the desire to change what is. Because if you desire to change what is into what you think it SHOULD be, you no longer understand.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, March 12th, 2024 by Stuart Wilde in INFINITE SELF

“The mental discipline for somebody who is very intellectual is the idea of not making your mind God and becoming arrogant. Then you have to somehow pull out of too much thinking. Excess thinking is a disease. It’s what I call “over-thinking-on-life.” When you get too mentally involved in questioning and intellectual activity, it keeps you from tapping into who you really are. You are a FEELING. When you depart from this earth plane, you depart as a feeling. You do not depart as 21 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica. Intellect is useful because it can earn you money and help you study; it can help you remember things. But in the end you are a spiritual being and therefore a feeling, not an intellectual concept.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, March 11th, 2024 by Neale Donald Walsch in CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD BOOK 3

“Everything that occurs – everything that has occurred, is occurring, and will occur – is the outward physical manifestation of your innermost thoughts, choices, ideas, and determinations regarding Who You Are and Who You Choose to Be. Condemn not, therefore, those aspects of life with which you disagree. Seek instead to change them, and the conditions that made them possible.

Behold the darkness, yet curse it not. Rather, be a light unto the darkness, and so transform it. Let your light shine before men, that those who stand in the darkness will be illumined by the light of your being, and all of you will see, at last, Who You Really Are. Be a Bringer of the Light. For your light can do more than illuminate your own path. Your light can be the light which truly lights the world.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Friday, March 8th, 2024 by Sondra Sneed in WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU’RE DEAD

“Great change is taking place on the earth, and whether you believe in God or not, there is going to be a change in how you see the world. The world is not an easy place within which to become your greatest nature, because you and the rest of the world have forgotten why you exist at all. There is a problem with that forgetfulness. The problem is that you cannot find happiness in your life unless you remember the reason you came to earth. You came here for one reason – you are designed to find the mind of God and to give that mind to every activity you perform.

When you learn to open your human mind and capture the great creative force that dwells somewhere above your thinking brain, then you will uncover the riches you seek and the abundant life withheld from you. Please understand that the only one holding you back from the very thing you wish for is your misunderstanding about the nature of being.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, March 7th, 2024 by Eliza Mada Dalian in IN SEARCH OF THE MIRACULOUS

“All struggles and unhappiness arise out of your rejection of what life brings. Instead of enjoying the life you already have, you seek what your beliefs and conditionings dictate. If you were prepared to accept what life gives you and able to watch your ego-mind from moment to moment, there would not even be a question of needing to surrender. In the absence of the ego-mind, you would already be in surrender.

What prevents us from surrendering is our need to always be right and in control. When we are afraid to let go of our beliefs and attachments to people and things we prevent ourselves from receiving what life abundantly showers upon us with all of its creation. It’s impossible to accept and surrender to life when you negate it through fear and insecurity. Your fear of the unknown and your worries of survival turn your life into a struggle that inevitably jeopardizes your own health and happiness.

You bring peace to yourself, others, and the world when you let go of your struggling ego-mind and gracefully accept what life offers you. By surrendering to what is you free your energy of the pain and suffering that your desires, beliefs, and conditionings create and discover many new and exciting things about yourself, others, and the universe.”

“Karma is memory coming to consciousness again. What has occurred in the past is recalled and has an effect on the present. Now, the recollection may not surface to the conscious level; the personality may have no awareness of the memory, in fact. Yet it exists at the deeper, soul level.

One of the most distorted views of karma is the idea that nothing can be done about it. No matter how terrible our predicament, there is always something we can do, even if it’s just dealing with it as best we can with a patient smile, a good attitude and a loving heart. The time will come when we will be through with this stretch of the hard road, and it’s best to come out of it with no bitterness. Remember, no one has done this to you, it is the result of your own actions, thoughts or words. In patience you will overcome it and rise again to an even greater level than before. Again, keep in mind that in the worst situation often lies the greatest opportunity.”

“Imagine how you would speak to someone whom you love and respect immensely. If you have a pet dog or cat that you love and adore, how do you speak to your animal friend? Now consider how you speak to yourself. What do you say to yourself every day when you look in the mirror, when you are bathing or dressing or going about your day? If you speak to yourself in a critical, judgmental way, it’s because you have learned to do this from others. You AGREED to treat yourself this way, then you practiced this habit until you mastered it. Now that you are aware of the agreement, you can choose to break it by saying: I no longer agree to treat myself with disrespect.”

“Try seeing yourself as a spiritual being of energy. Go to a mirror and look at your body then close your eyes. See your body in your mind then erase your skin, bones, blood, everything; and leave only a filed of energy where your body once was. You can picture this energy to look like anything you choose. I am only attempting to make your mind transcend the body and see it for what it is – a glove for the spirit. You can discard the body at any time; your real power is in spirit form.

You are a Spiritual Consciousness – You ARE All That Is. Do not resist it – open yourself to it. As you walk through your day imagine that you have no body – that you are only intelligent energy, perhaps in the shape of a body if that helps your visualization. Imagine yourself wanting something – proceed to acquire it using only your thoughts, knowing that your thoughts can create planets and stars and complex galaxies. That should make achieving anything on earth elementary.”

“In order to gain wisdom and freedom from your past, you must take responsibility for all the events that have happened in your life. Taking responsibility means being able to say to yourself, “I did that.” There’s a big difference between the world doing things to you and your doing things to yourself. When you take responsibility for the events in your life and for your interpretation of those events, you step out of the world of a child and into the world of an adult. By claiming responsibility for your action and your inaction, you give up the story line of “Why Me?” and turn it into “This happened to me because I needed to learn a lesson. This is part of my journey.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Thursday, February 29th, 2024 by Jeff Maziarek in SPIRITUALITY SIMPLIFIED

“At the fundamental level then, it is our thoughts that are the true currency of creation. This is because as children of God, we are connected to the God-Force at all times, for it is this higher intelligence that beats our hearts, digests our food, etc. Moreover, our connection to God is not simply physiologically based, but also exists at the level of mind. Our minds truly are extensions of the mind of God, and as such have enormous creative power. According to Dr. Joseph Murphy:

“It is the world within, namely your thoughts, feelings and imagery that makes your world without. It is, therefore, the only creative power, and everything you find in your world of expression has been created by you in the inner world of your mind, consciously or unconsciously.”

The preceding passage is just one of perhaps hundreds that could have been referenced regarding the creative power of thoughts. Numerous authors and sages throughout all of recorded history have made comparable statements. And this leads to an important question, which is: what is the nature of our thoughts that gives them such force?

The simple answer is that a thought itself is at its fundamental level “an impulse of energy and information.” More importantly, according to modern quantum theory, those same impulses of energy and information that we experience as thoughts “are the raw material of the universe itself.” As such, thought is indeed the most powerful energy in the Universe.”

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, February 28th, 2024 by Edwin Harkness Spina in MYSTIC SECRETS REVEALED

“There is no other mission on earth as critical as learning to tap into your inner self for guidance and expressing your inner light. As numerous spiritual traditions assert, “The highest and best source of wisdom comes from within.” Learning to ask for, listen and accept this guidance is essential to developing spiritually.

When you have tapped into your inner self, you then can use your mind to interpret the “voice” of your inner master, and take inspired action to create or express yourself – whether you are writing, painting, singing, working, playing, or simply thinking.

Now, be forewarned: there are those who may tell you that relying on your “mind” is dangerous – that doing so is egotistical. Some “schools” of thought actually argue humans think too much and, to balance this tendency, they should rely more on emotion and instinct. This theory misses the point entirely. The question is not whether you, or anyone else, thinks too much, but rather, WHAT VOICE DO YOU LISTEN TO – the voice of your ego or that of your higher self?”
