In the book Master Yourself,
Master Your Life, by Bob Lancer it says "Wisdom is the conscious control
and direction of your forces in the here-now. It is being conscious
of where you are and what you are going through. By the steady intentional
application of awareness throughout your daily living, a whole new life
will gradually open up for you. Through awareness you will discover
your path to inner peace, as a life of increasing success and fulfillment
gradually unfolds. Your actions and reactions will progressively
bring greater peace and order into your life, and the lives your touch
(if they are open to receive these harmonizing forces)."
Kahlil Gibran says in his book The
Prophet, "No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies
half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge....... And even as each
one of you stands alone in God's knowledge, so must each one of you be
alone in his knowledge of God and in his understanding of the earth."
John Stevens book, Awareness, "Is
based on the discovery that is much more useful to simply become deeply
aware of yourself as you are now. Rather than try to change, stop, or avoid
something that you don't like in yourself, it is much more effective to
stay with it and become more deeply aware of it."
Awareness is to recognize and be
mindful of that which comes before one and to have a consciousness of its
existence, according to the Donning International Encyclopedic Psychic
Dictionary.
Let's Be All We Can Be

How can we do that? Take a moment
and visualize love in its highest form. What does it look like? How
does it feel? What is your action or reaction? Really get into
it.
What the mind can conceive and believe
it can achieve. If you took the time to imagine it, then you can call upon
that energy throughout each and every day.
Call upon the Divine to assist you
in your moments of despair, moments of confusion, moments of frustration,
and moments of sadness. If you choose to do it, you can increase
the vibration of love around you and those with whom you come in
contact with.
You have the freedom to choose what
you want to do and be. Those who love are those who live in the light.
In the year 2000, let us build a
temple of love, joy and beauty within us that can be spread throughout
the world.
Think freedom, freedom is allowing
others their thoughts and ideas without criticism.
Think gratitude; gratitude is one
of the highest forms of respect.
Be conscious of your feelings, deeds
and behaviors.
Be grateful for every living thing.
Ask yourself: do my words, feelings
and acts increase the happiness, joy and health to all living things?
If not, why not?
Let us take the responsibility
to be all we can be now and forever. Love, respect and joy to all!
