Summary
Today's Quotes:
"Unless you realize and feel God's presence, or unless you actually feel the nothingness of that which is presenting itself as the appearance, the healing will not take place."
- Joel Goldsmith
Dr. Michael Beckwith's 4 Stages of Spiritual Progress (To Me, By Me, Through Me, AS Me)
1. Victim Stage (to me)
"Something is happening to me. I'm a victim. I live believing that something outside of me determines my destiny, my happiness, my success, and my well-being."
2. Manifestation Stage (by me)
"I learn to manifest. I use my mind, my conversation, and spiritual practices... to manifest the kind of life that I can imagine."
3. Surrender Stage (through me)
"I'm yielding. I'm surrendering. I'm allowing, because I've come to an awareness that the order that we all depend on is none that I make. That order already exists, and I'm yielding to it, I'm surrendering to it."
4. Oneness (AS me)
In this stage, the line of separation is dissolved, and we feel our oneness with all of life with no filter.
Bonus Quote:
"When the feeling "I am doing" is lost, nothing affects a man. Unless one realizes the Self, the feeling "I am doing" will never vanish."
-Ramana Maharshi
Today's Practice:
Which stage are you hanging out in? Be honest with yourself, and then practice dropping your 'self' by feeling Love until only this ocean of Love is left. That's the 4th stage, the Go(o)d one.
I Love you,
Nik

| 1:13.7 | You will not become aware of a miracle. |
| 1:22.0 | The way it happens here, it seems simultaneous because I'm aware of the presence, because |
| 1:27.7 | I stop, I pause, and I listen for the feeling of love where I am, and it takes less than |
| 1:35.6 | a second. |
| 1:36.6 | As soon as I feel it, I become aware that the appearance is nothing, that only love, |
| 1:42.5 | only that love that I am feeling is present, even though the eyes see stuff, including |
| 1:48.9 | this body, even though it is seen, it's experienced. |
| 1:54.5 | It's seen as nothing, it's experienced as nothing, when this love is felt, when God |
| 2:00.8 | is felt, when love is consciously here. |
| 2:06.8 | In the beginning for me, when I first started practicing the presence of God, started |
| 2:11.4 | practicing what Joe Goldsmith taught, what brother Lawrence taught, and Joel said his |
| 2:17.4 | teaching is a direct line from what Jesus taught, and what the Buddha taught, and what |
| 2:23.4 | Krishna taught, when I first started practicing, I could pause and become aware of love. |
