"People say, 'what should I do with my life?' The more interesting question is, 'how do I cultivate the quietness of my Being, where what I should do with my life becomes apparent.'"
-Ram Dass
God is saying, "it's not your life, tho... it's Mine." :) So chill!
Find your Self, your purpose, your best life through giving Love your attention, and It'll give you the world.
“Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom."
-Luke 12:32
I Love you,

Presence is all that I know.
Love is all that I feel.
God is all that I experience.
Right where I used to experience Mondays, I experience Love, inspiration, joy, new life.
Only Love is here, and sometimes, I call it Monday.
Today's Quotes:
"Be here fully, and then whatever is needed in your life comes. It comes out of the power that dwells in the present moment. There is an enormous power here. It is the power of life itself."
- Eckhart Tolle
"This sound of the Lord's name is identical with the Lord, as we have tried to explain by the non-dual position of the Lord ... All fear is vanished as soon as there is the sound of the Lord, represented by His holy name. We can take advantage of these sounds and be free from all threatening problems of material existence."
- Srila Prabhupada
Today's Practice:
Listen to this episode again (the one about mantra) and try to incorporate it into your day, today, and always. It's truly the practice that changed my life because it holds you in Power. It holds you in remembrance because as soon as you notice that you're no longer repeating the name of God, you’re back, and you start again—aware of the presence of Love, of Power, of God. Aware that you are the presence of Love, of Power, of God. And you relax and smile, knowing that this Presence takes care of Itself.
I Love you and I Am (is) with you,

Note: Effective ways (covered in previous episodes) to 'pause' thinking is to stare straight ahead, unblinkingly, and/or to suddenly stop breathing for a few seconds (on the inhale or exhale-- doesn't matter). Ramana Maharshi said these act like temporary reins or brakes on thinking, revealing the Love that's always (t)here. Then, when blinking and breathing resume, you stay with the Love, unwaveringly.
Today's Quotes:
"Meditation pauses the story in your mind long enough for you to remember that your mind is always telling you a story." - @heycoryallen on IG
"You are not suffering yesterday or tomorrow. You are only suffering memory and your imagination."
- Sadhguru
Today's Practice:
Keep recognizing that this felt-Love is always 'on' and available to you. Even though the world screen, and its memory and imagination programs play, the WORD screen... the LOVE screen, and its programs are always playing, have always been playing, and will always be playing. Tune in. And stay tuned in.
I Love you and 'I AM' (is) with you,

Today's Quotes:
"Remember that finding God will be the funeral of all sorrows."
- Sri Yukteswar Giri via Autobiography of a Yogi
“Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.”
-Chinese Proverb
“St. Teresa of Avila wrote: 'All difficulties in prayer can be traced to one cause: praying as if God were absent.' This is the conviction that we bring with us from early childhood and apply to everyday life and to our lives in general. It gets stronger as we grow up, unless we are touched by the Gospel and begin the spiritual journey. This journey is a process of dismantling the monumental illusion that God is distant or absent.”
-Thomas Keating, Fruits and Gifts of the Spirit
"You are so near that I cannot see You. Like a fool I keep looking around."
-Rumi
Today's Practice:
Finding and knowing this Love ends your worries, ends your suffering… ends the limited and distorted concept of 'you'. And in its place, the Grace of felt-Oneness... Wisdom... Purpose.. Joy... I Am.
I Love you and I'm with you,
Nik

Only Silence is here. Not Silence and the present moment, or Silence and God, or Silence and Love, or Silence and you. They're all One. The present moment IS Silence. Silence IS God. God IS Love. Love IS you. There's only the One presence here, and It's silent and loving, and some call It God, and some call It 'the Now', and some call It 'Awareness', and you call It 'Self'. But It's just Silence... without the word 'silence'. Just the bare experience of It. Just the immediate awareness of It(Self).
Just Presence.
Just Love.
Just God.
Just Silence.
Silence appearing as (worldly) silence.
Silence appearing as (our concept of) God.
Silence appearing as (our concept of) Love.
Silence appearing as (the concept of) you.
Silence appearing as (the concept of) me reminding you.
OR
Love appearing as (worldly) silence.
Love appearing as (our concept of) God.
Love appearing as (our concept of) Love.
Love appearing as (the concept of) you.
Love appearing as (the concept of) me reminding you.
OR
God appearing as (worldly) silence.
God appearing as (our concept of) God.
God appearing as (our concept of) Love.
God appearing as (the concept of) you.
God appearing as (the concept of) me reminding you.
No words can touch This. No words are True. They can only point to the Silence that Is. KNOW... FEEL...BE the Loving-Silence, and be free.
Today's Quotes:
A reading from Eva Bell Werber's Journey with the Master called, 'Silence."
"Inward is not a direction. Inward is a dimension."
- Sadhguru
"Even when you are in the kitchen, our Lord is moving among the pots and pans."
- St. Teresa of Avila

Today's Quotes:
"Your consciousness of Truth does not mean your ability to recall Truth; it means your immediate awareness of Truth-- the Truth of which you are conscious this very moment."
- Bob Pilato
“I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
-John 16:33
"The entire spiritual life is based on the rejection of appearances."
-Joel Goldsmith
“All evil vanishes from life for him who keeps the sun in his heart.”
-Ram Dass
Today's Practice:
Take a vacation from yourself by being your Self. Bask in the sun of the Self and immediately know everything AS that One. As Love. You're not trying to practice or trying to remember this, you immediately feel and know Love here, there, and everywhere.
When you scroll IG, you know that where the phone, the hand, the feed, and the profiles appear to be, only Love is. Where the world is, including the body you call 'you' appears to be, know only Love is (t)here. Here, everything is holy. Everything is sacred. Every day is a miracle. Every day is vacation. Every day is Saturday. This is an immediate recognition. An instant retreat. Stay here.
I Love you,
Nik

It's a BEING practice, not a thinking one.
Today's Quotes:
"If materialistic world is noise, spirituality or religion is music. Most people just keep shuffling between noise and music. To discover the eternal silence, you have to realize that the music is just refined noise." - @immortaltalks on IG
“Father, there is little to tell. My consciousness has never associated itself with this temporary body. Before I came to this earth, Father, I was the same. I grew into womanhood, but still, I was the same. When the family in which I had been born made arrangements to have this body married, I was the same. And, Father, in front of you now, I am the same. Even afterwards, though the dance of creation changes around me in the hall of eternity, I shall be the same.”
-Anandamayi Ma to Yogananda in 'Autobiography of a Yogi'
"I become something, then nothing, then everything, but always remain Myself."
-Rupert Spira
Today's Practice:
Know 'I Am' by feeling It, not thinking about It. Feel It without words. When you're feeling It, you're being It and know everything else as It, too. This is a feeling practice, not a thinking practice. We're dropping the noise, the music, for Silence. And from that Silence you can enjoy the music... you can be the dancer, the watcher of the dance, and at the same time, be beyond it all.
I Love you,
Nik

If I Am here, God is also here, Now.*
If I Am here, Love is also here, Now.
If I Am here, the Love of my life is also here, Now.
I Am the Love of my life.
The 'I Am' is God.
The 'I Am' is the Moment.
The 'I Am' is Now.
The 'I Am' is the only Presence.
The 'I Am' is the presence of my seeming Lover and everything else.
I will focus on the "I Am" and what I need will come into focus.
I Love you and I'm with you,
Nik

Quotes:
"I asked, 'why have I received only this?' A voice replied, 'only this will lead you to That.' "
- Rumi
"God has proven that when He is with me, all the necessities of life become unnecessary. In that consciousness you become more healthy than the average person, more joyous, more bountiful in every way. Don't seek little things; they will divert you from God. Start your experiment now: make life simple and be a king. "
-Yogananda
*"If I Am here, God is also here."
- Joel Goldsmith
"Lord, I'm ready."
- Ciara

Today's Quote:
"Take your questions to a deeper place than the anxiety to figure something out."
-Adyashanti
Today's Practice:
When you notice a question or an issue today, PAUSE and find the deeper place. Feel the Silence of the deeper place. Hear the Love in the deeper place, AS the deeper place. Through this Pause, answers and solutions flow. Through this Pause, wisdom dawns. Pause... and prosper.
I Love you,
Nik

Today's Quote:
"God remains an illusion until you have realized Him, and once you realize God, the world becomes an illusion." - unknown
Bonus Quote:
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." - Matthew 6:33
Today's Practice:
Don't pray for what you desire, pray for release from the desire itself. Pray for relief from the neediness. Pray to see through the need. Pray to see through the illusion of the need... the illusion of the world. Pray to feel God's presence, Its Love, His constant, jubilant celebration where you are, and the more you attend to this celebrating, the more you'll have to celebrate.
UPDATE: Shortly after our chat, the listener received the call that the ball is rolling on the paperwork for the property. It'll likely be closed before the end of the year!
