Dez Dalton shares his thoughts and wisdom for being in the Now.
 
 

William Shakespear once wrote "To be or not to be, that is the question". Nature moves and grows without toil. Consider the humble flower bud as it seeks the light without doubt or question. Your awakened spirit is the bud of divine realisation in your life.
Over the years I found I'd become stuck in some kind of rut the old "one step forward and two steps" routine never realising that I had allowed myself to live in limitation. I was either replaying past experiences that were usually negative, or worrying about some future event and how then I was going to live my life. The things I most looked for were a harmonious career, financial security and fame. Usually to no avail.
I like to share some of the findings that have come to me through my own life and show you that it is possible to live and be within the ever expanding light of your present Now.

  • Set your Purpose to live in Gratitude. When you set and state a purpose you set into motion the power of the universe with all the qualities of direction, clarity, vision, protection, divine guidance and focus, and thus begins the cycle of living and being within the present moment. Silently bless and give thanks from your heart for all the things, persons, places and situations you have in your life right now.

  • Meditate and reflect each day upon the joyous experiences that have entered your life. When you do this you build a momentum of strength to change your reality.

  • Use visualization techniques to give shape and form to your constructive desires. Allow your mind to see them as complete and whole. In this way you become the architect for your constructive desires to manifest into your world.

  • Become consciously aware of your thoughts and spoken words. Take responsibility for what you say and realise what you place into the atmosphere around you. Thoughts and words are vibrations of energy. So if you constantly affirm to yourself and to others that you have a symptom or problem, you unconsciously make an agreement with the effect and so accept it into your being and your life's experiences.

  • To help you to live more in your present infinite state, it would be wise to avoid the following words. When you remove them from your vocabulary in time they will be dissolved from your reality.

    TRY

    You actually become more aware of the vibration of this word by listening to others who use it. Within this awareness you can observe how you can become stuck and transfixed in your life. TRY ~ an unconscious attempt to failure.

    WANT
    The universe only hears the 'want' and it is this which returns to the receiver. So you set up a circle of more want and wanting.

    DON'T
    Again the universe only hears the 'do' out of the 'don't and expressed as 'don't want' this becomes a double negative inducing the very thing you do not want to recur in your life.

    NEVER & CAN'T
    If used as a double negative the same vibration applies.

    NEED
    There can be a fine line between need and greed. This can lead to neediness, self pity, and requiring a need for the energy of sympathy. Neither need nor greed is nourishing to your spirit, mind and body.

    ALWAYS
    If used in a negative statement, it's vibration can represent victim mentality eg. "this negative thing always happens to me". It can also have the double negative impact of suggesting something happens "in all ways" On the other hand, it can also be used in a positive sense eg.
    " I am always receiving great blessing in my life" then it becomes a powerful affirmation or decree.
    Now for the good news. Using the vibration of these words can bring absolute blessings into your life: "nothing is, but thinking makes it so"

    I AM
    Be aware and certain of what quality of words you choose to place after the almighty power of the "I AM". Some words to bring the blessings you seek are:
    " I AM completely healthy and full of energy now"
    "I AM receiving greater assistance and divine guidance in my life always"
    "I AM the presence of the light enfolding my life in complete harmony, peace, balance and divine perfection"
    I CAN and I DO create vibrations of action.
    Remember to use the wisdom of gratitude to give thanks in knowing that all is present as it has already been accomplished in your life.

  • Move beyond attachment to outcome. If you allow the mind to strive to control a particular situation or event, this instantly places you in the future and you no longer stand within the power and energy of the present. This can ultimately lead to frustration and doubt within yourself and others around you. Remove all doubt in your abilities to co-create your constructive desires with the source of all life. Trust, recognise and realise that all perfection is here in this moment.

  • Actively honour yourself with your life experiences and all it's blessings. The cup of knowledge is worthless and empty unless it is filled to over flowing with the living nectar of your life's experiences. The intellectual mind requires the intuitive wisdom of the heart to steer it in a course of true action.

  • Live in gratitude and know that all blessings are are Present from the Source of all life as the universe responds to your chosen path. Always give thanks that your constructive desires have already happened. You can this silently from your heart, thus placing your awareness continually in the present now.

  • Consciously live in awareness of unconditional love, compassion and peace. Silently being a living example of your truth on your journey upon Mother Earth.

Maybe Shakespheare with his great intuitive knowledge of human beings would agree that it's time to move away from the mind's questioning to seek a Divine Balance with the all the answers that reside within your Heart.
