GETTING STARTED.

TO HELP US ALL IN OUR DAILY LIVES WE NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH, BUT WE ALSO NEED SOMEWAY OF SORTING THAT TRUTH OUT.

BELOW ARE 5 ITEMS OF TRUTH.

When a question or problem comes, get pen and paper and jot down everything that comes to mind, even if it seems irrelevant to that problem.  Then apply the following items and a solution will be there if all of them fit perfectly.

  1. GOD IS EVERYTHING AND IN EVERYTHING (energy of love)

The ? society call it ‘the all’ others, the ‘divine principle ’the ‘divine directive’ and Jesus ‘the Christ in you ’or ‘holy ghost in you’.

  • EVERYTHING IS THE SAME

The only differences being our perspectives of it and to help understand more fully – consider everything is made of the same atoms in different combinations – every thought produces a molecule of matter made of atoms.

  • NOTHING HAPPENS BY CHANCE

Consider love to help – God is perfect, and perfection cannot have a chance in it – there is always a reason for everything and even if you do not like the reason for an ‘accident’ it happened as a result of the way you think individually and collectively.

  • WE CREATE EVERYTHING FOR OURSELVES

We are fully responsible for everything that happens to us good or bad.  We also should accept responsibility for what happens to others.

  • CAUSE AND EFFECT

For every cause there is an effect but every cause is the effect of a previous cause.  To find the real cause we often have to go back 2 or 3 causes and sometimes something said or done 20-30 years ago.  (After heavy rain a flooding problem over 20 years ago and compounded by actions taken about 7 years ago).

Now I use this little poem  

EVERYTHING IS THE SAME – THERE IS NO CHANCE – IM TO BLAME

Some examples to help use these truths.

When you pass a remark, and someone responds beyond what seems to be within reason to that remark – think it could be only the trigger point and if you calmly look back cause by cause you could find that it started say 5 years ago by a practical joke you played on them and they took it the wrong way – they had in their mind built and kept on building a dislike for you until a ‘çhance’ remark triggered the release of their anger.  Simple – you were responsible.

When confused try comparing with a sample example in life around you.  Say you have a relationship problem with a friend or family member – consider the pot plant – its no use flooding with water when half dead it needs constant care and attention of its needs to stay healthy.

Its obvious that all our lives we have been looking at things the wrong way round or upside down.  So, start by never putting the blame on anyone else for anything.  If its not full of love and perfect, accept responsibility and do something positive about it.  How? Easy, before acting or doing anything, think clearly ahead as to the effect of the action on anyone else.

Remember we have no negative thought about the real, like love, peace, harmony, life, etc. so if there is the slightest negative reaction or thought, its false and needs discarding.

IT ALL STARTS AND ENDS WITH YOU.
