Come to Life - Unfold Your True Purpose Sep 02, 2021

Show notes

"You've got to be centered in God, that's your number one priority. That's all you've got to do at all times- to be centered in God and everything must come your way, it's a law. Spirit draws unto Itself. Spirit will employ you because Spirit is you. But if you're not Spirit or if you disclaim being Spirit or if you act like a human and not Spirit, how can Spirit serve?"
-Herb Fitch
"Your Heart knows the way. Run in that direction."
- Rumi
"Things that excite you are not random. They are connected to your purpose. Follow Them."
- Deepak Chopra
"There's so much peace in knowing that you will not miss out on what's meant for you."
-unknown on IG
The Kanye West song I mentioned, 'Come to Life' from Donda (track 22).
Today's Practice:
Take out your notebook and write down your 'thing'. That thing you can't stop talking about. That thing you would do for free. And start doing some form of it today. Begin unfolding your Soul's purpose. Come to Life. Come to Love. Tell Divine Love, tell God that you're ready.
Say, "I'm ready."
I love you,
Nik

How to Deal With a Negative Partner Sep 01, 2021

Show notes

Maintaining our relationship with Divine Love, all of our human relationships will either evolve or dissolve.
From a 2017 @Curlynikki IG post:
When She notices Bae’s bad mood:
She remembers, that at a higher level, she asked for this. She remembers that he is her spiritual practice, and therefore, she sees him as this moody-ass angel that’s forcing her into inner Peace, permanently. He’s a beacon to call her Home to the only place where there is genuine, unconditional Love-- within.
She knows that he can’t provide her with Love — That is what she is, but she used to forget that and when she did, she felt cut off, separate and like a victim. Just as he can’t make her happy, he can’t make her sad. She now takes radical responsibility for her moods.
In reality there are no ‘others’— just more of her Self. She knows that just as she is God appearing as _____ (your name here), he is God appearing as moody Bae. She sees him in his Perfection (in Love) even when he’s acting out, and maybe he’ll begin expressing that Perfection... or maybe he won’t be in her life anymore. Either way, her only goal is to stay woke in the dream of life at all times. She doesn’t match his low mood in hopes that she’ll guilt him into acting nice. She knows better. It’s never worked before and it won’t start working now. Instead, she finds her inner Beauty, the Presence, the real Self, and gives it her attention. In the midst of the turbulent energy of anger or resentment, Love is there, waiting to be remembered. Even if she can only feel a tiny bit of It, she’s won. #BeHerNow
Bonus Quotes:
"Shine the warm light of awareness on your thoughts and feelings." -Thich Nhat Hanh
"In the sunlight of awareness Everything becomes sacred."- Thich Nhat Hanh
Today's Practice:
When your partner is actively dark clouding, become aware of the dark cloud you experience inside, in response to theirs. Notice that even though the cloud seems to be present within you, so is the Sun. Give your attention to the Sun, to Love. Be that Love. Abide as this Love.
Their 'dark cloud' is only a call for you to go further into the practice. Deeper into your Self. It's a blessing in disguise. And the more you abide in Love, refusing to step off your throne for anything and anyone, the more you begin to see It reflected outwardly as healthy and fulfilling relationships.
Everything is changing.
I love you and I'm with you,
Nik

The Highest Realization- Seeing Through the Illusion Aug 31, 2021

Show notes

Today's Quotes:
"The moment you see through the appearances of material concepts, you experience the Joy that is everywhere. You feel it within yourself. "
- John Stephenson
"We have to develop the divine vision which sees through the negative and positive and instantaneously becomes aware of Divine Perfection seated on every throne. This is how we bring the Light of God into this physical world, by recognizing It in the invisible. We all have that possibility, and if we are ready, we can call It our responsibility. As a bearer of the Light we have to see the Light. At first , we have to feel the Light, so we intuit the Light before we even see It. And when we see It, turns out to be different than physical Light. It is the Light of wisdom."
-Herb Fitch
"Dive deep into the inner Peace, not in the sea of diversity. " - The Yoga Vasistha
Bonus Quote:
When we come to Earth
They call it a birth
When we leave.
they say we die.
But we really don't come.
and we really don't go.
We just dream our lives,
but why?
To awaken as Bliss
from all of this,
Joyous that all is
"I".
-Ron's memories (from an Amazon review beneath a book called 'Turiya the God State)
"What you have called the body does not exist in the eyes of the sage."
-The Yoga Vasistha
"When there is the notion of reality (permanence) in unreal phenomena, there is bondage."
-The Yoga Vasistha
Today's Practice:
See everything as a rainbow... as temporary, impermanent, fleeting. Recognize that not even the most beautiful appearance is the source of the Joy that you truly are. Look through the appearances today, and feel Truth. Let that feeling (silent-Love) of Truth become the appearance of the miracle you've been seeking.
(Final thought--There's actually no one here to see through anything, and no illusion that needs to be seen through.)

Do This in Remembrance of ME Aug 30, 2021

Show notes

"Get close to Me. Get close to Me! Do what you can. Do what you have to. Do what it takes.
Say a rosary. Kiss a stone. Bow to the East. Chant a chant. Swing a pendulum. Test a muscle.
Or write a book.
Do what it takes.
Each of you has your own construction. Each of you has understood Me—created Me—in your own way.
To some of you I am a man. To some of you I am a woman. To some, I am both. To some, I am neither.
To some of you I am pure energy. To some, the ultimate feeling, which you call love. And some of you have no idea what I am. You simply know that I AM.
And so it is.
I AM.
I am the wind which rustles your hair. I am the sun which warms your body. I am the rain which dances on your face. I am the smell of flowers in the air, and I am the flowers which send their fragrance upward. I am the air which carries the fragrance.
I am the beginning of your first thought. I am the end of your last. I am the idea which sparked your most brilliant moment. I am the glory of its fulfillment. I am the feeling which fueled the most loving thing you ever did. I am the part of you which yearns for that feeling again and again.
Whatever works for you, whatever makes it happen—whatever ritual, ceremony, demonstration, meditation, thought, song, word, or action it takes for you to “reconnect”—do this.
Do this in remembrance of Me."
--Excerpt from: "Conversations with God, Books 2 & 3: An Uncommon Dialogue" by Neale Donald Walsch
"The game isn’t to end up a good meditator; but to end up free.
The game isn’t to end up a good Buddhist; it’s to end up Buddha.
The game isn’t to end up a good Christian; but to end up Christ.
The game isn’t to end up loving; it’s to end up being love."
- Ram Dass

The Secret Radiance that Changes Everything Aug 30, 2021

Show notes

Today's Quotes:
"Under the anger,
under the fear,
under the despair,
under the broken heartedness,
there is a radiance
that has never been harmed,
that has never been lost,
that is the Truth of who you are."
-Gangaji
"When you feel this Light, That is you, and everything else that you thought was you, is not you."
-Herb Fitch
Today's Practice:
Know this Radiance as your Self, and know that "everything else that you thought was you, is not you." When you're feeling It, you're being It. Set that alarm! Keep listening for Silence, keep feeling the Love, the Light in the Silence. All you have to do is turn toward It, and stop turning away. Keep turning toward It, until the 'you' that's doing the turning is dissolved, too.
I love you,
Nik

Meditate Like Oprah & Maya Angelou - Become a Quiet Vessel Aug 29, 2021

Show notes

Today's Quotes: "When we plug the battery into the charger, it doesn't chatter away about how much it needs charging... it simply and quietly accepts the inflow of energy. And when we pray, Jesus is telling us, we should get into the depths of our being, and shut out the concerns of the world, and "pray to the Father in secret".
As we grow in understanding of the Truth of our relationship with God, as we begin to see ourselves in the light of our divinity, prayer becomes an experience in the silent. We put the words of entreaty, of supplication, even of adoration behind us. Our heart speaks in the language of the soul. We praise God through our feeling of gratitude. We worship through our spirit of reverence. We ask for help through our receptive mind and heart. We affirm the Truth of being by meditating quietly upon it."
-Eric Butterworth, excerpt from 'Discover the Power Within You: A Guide to the Unexplored Depths Within'
"A true Christian is a true Hindu, and a true Hindu is a true Christian." - Swami Vivekananda
Bonus Quote:
“Along this path of knowledge, I find that prayer and meditation are elemental. Guidance comes from those practices. Sometimes in meditation one really tries to think of nothing. I do, anyway. I try not to have any focus or use any focus to get away from everything. I try to make myself a quiet vessel, a quiet pool where ideas can rise."
- Maya Angelou
Today's Practice:
Today, I want you to prioritize the Silence. Make yourself the ‘quiet vessel’ and ‘get out of your own way’, so that you may hear the feeling of Love and unfold Its unique path for you. Take 5-10 minutes today to sit on the charger :) You got the juice!

I love you!

The Kingdom Isn't Far Away Aug 28, 2021

Show notes

Today's Quotes:
"The Kingdom of God is spread upon the earth, and men do not see it.'* The Kingdom isn't far away. The Kingdom is right here and right now. The challenge of Jesus' message is that it constantly asks of us: Can you see it? Can you see the Kingdom right now? Right in the midst of this very moment in the midst of this very life that often seems mundane and ordinary-- can you see eternity? Have you allowed yourself and your world to be rendered transparent to the underlying divinity that shines through it? - from Adyashanti's, 'Resurrecting Jesus'
*The Gospel of St. Thomas 113
"By and by your consciousness will become more and more centered in the eyes. You will just be aware; there will be no thinking. Eyes cannot think. When the whole consciousness is centered in the eyes, the mind has no energy left for thinking. There is no mind-- only the eyes exist-- so there is no thinking." - Osho
Today's Practice:
Take a few moments to notice that when you're not blinking, you're not thinking. And notice what you FEEL in that pause. Love. Become a transparency for that Love to shine through, for the Kingdom to reach out and through and touch others. Text someone a message of gratitude, today. Be Love, today, and remember that the Kingdom is not only where you reside, It's what you are.

God's Love is Rearranging Your Life Aug 27, 2021

Show notes

CROWN CHECK.
Breathe.
Smile.
Love's got you.
Welcome back to your Self.
God is pretending to be the world, but It's still only God. Remember this while interacting with seeming others... It's all YOU.
So soften... be gentle. It's all Go(o)d. Only Love is Here and It's rearranging everything. Relax into It.
"Unable to perceive the shape of you i find you all around me
your presence fills my eyes with your Love
It humbles my heart for you are everywhere."
- Hakim Sanai
"The way to You
lies clearly in my heart
and cannot be seen or known to the mind.
As my words turn to silence,
Your sweetness surrounds me."
- Hakim Sanai
"Filling Up My Eyes" Lyrics
You’re filling up my eyes
Filling up my eyes
No form with which to hide you
Now everywhere I find
You say, “Live just like the sky”
I live like I was blind
Now everywhere I find you
Now everywhere I find you
Filling up my eyes
I'm here
Everything is changing
but I am here
I'm here
I see it rearranging
Endless is your love
Your love is life
Your love is life
Life can't die
Life can never die
Endlessly am I
No place for me to hide, Lord
My presence is my life
As constant as the sky
I choicelessly abide
For this I cry, Lord
I am alive
I am alive.
-Mooji Mala, Filling Up My Eyes

"The River That Flows In You Also Flows In Me." Aug 27, 2021

Show notes

"I honor that place in you, when you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us."
- Ram Dass
"Do not be concerned about your relationships with people. Consciously maintain your relationship with God, and this will take care of everything else."
-Joel Goldsmith, The Infinite Way
"The river that flows in you also flows in me." -Kabir
"Meditate like Christ. He lost himself in the ocean of Love." - Neem Karoli Baba
Silently say 'Namaste' to everyone you see, today, remembering (FEELING) Ram Dass' definition of it-- "I honor that place in you, when you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us."
Feel the river of Love in you when you're on the way to the office. Feel the current of Love while looking at your coworkers, your family, and everyone you meet (including animals!). Keep feeling this gentle river of Love flowing within you and don't stop feeling It. Feel It until you lose yourself in the Ocean of Love.
Keep flowing, my friend,
Nik

I'm Not Aware of the Light, I AM the Light Aug 26, 2021

Show notes

Remember, you aren't aware of the Light, you ARE the Light. :) And today we do a meditation that is a waking, moment to moment practice, to incorporate this Truth. Walk this day, as the flame that you are! Feel the inner body, the vibration of Love, and BE THAT. Don't be aware of THAT. Identify as THAT. As Osho says, you are the flame, and that body (and the world) is the aura around it.
Previous practices mentioned today--
The Inner Body Practice
The Diamond Light Body Meditation
Today's Quote:
"All spiritual practices are illusions created by illusionists to escape illusion." - Ram Dass
Today's Meditation:
“While waking, moving, eating, working, remember yourself as light, as if in your heart a flame is burning, and your body is nothing but the aura around the flame. Imagine it: in your heart a flame is burning, and your body is nothing but a light aura around the flame; your body is just a light around the flame. Allow it to go deep within your mind and your consciousness. Imbibe it. It will take time, but if you go on thinking about it, feeling it, imagining it, within a certain period you will be able to remember it the whole day. While awake, moving on the street, you are a flame moving. No one else will be aware of it in the beginning, but if you continue it, after three months others will also become aware. Only when others become aware can you then be at ease. Don’t say anything to anyone. Simply imagine a flame, and your body as just the aura around it—not a physical body, but an electric body, a light body. Go on doing it.”
