Summary
The moment you step onto God's escalator, going up,
like at the airport,
you loosen your grip on your baggage,
you relax a bit,
you can rest.
Even though at times it feels like you're taking two steps forward and one step back,
doubting,
believing,
doubting,
believing,
you're still rising.
You're still going up.
Everything is happening, the good and the bad, while you're continuing the inevitable ascent,
back to the Home you never left.
I Love you,
Nik

Today's Quotes:
"You are closer to your victory than you are to where you came from. Keep going."
-@PursuitofHoliness via IG
"Focus on the step in front of you. Not the entire staircase."
- @iliastration via IG
"Not by might, not by power, but by My Spirit." When we have learned not to resist evil, not to fight it, and not to try to get God to fight it for us, we will not have to labor for our good: we will receive it by Grace. Our very acknowledgment of the unreal and illusory nature of the discords of this world is the spiritual power."
-Joel Goldsmith
"Certainly you will have doubts. There will be questioning and faith will return again. That is how faith is established."
-Sarada Devi
In deep Love your mind becomes free of thoughts."
-Ravi Shankar
"Body of all. Mind of all. Spirit of all. May we meditate on the radiance of the inner light. May that Self illuminate our thoughts. Peace Peace Peace."
-Gayatri Mantra translation from Shakara
The sanskrit that I chant internally--
Om Bhur Bhuvaḥ Swaḥ
Tat-savitur Vareñyaṃ
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi
Dhiyo Yonaḥ Prachodayāt
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti
A cool video about the power of it-- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78aOzoOWzSA
“Mantras have powers to endow one with remarkable abilities. The Gayatri mantra gives the devotees spiritual as well as material benefits.
- Ramana Maharshi

| 0:37.0 | coming from. You are closer to your victory in this moment than you are to where you came |
| 0:47.4 | from. How does it feel to know that all you have to do is focus on the next step and |
| 0:55.1 | not the entire staircase. How does it feel to know that the next step is what you're |
| 1:01.8 | doing right now. Noticing your breath. Becoming aware of your shoulders relaxing down and |
| 1:10.9 | back. Your back straightening and lengthening. That body swaying in love. It is Ravi Shankar |
| 1:23.4 | said in deep love. Your mind becomes free of thoughts. In deep love you notice a deep silence. |
| 1:35.7 | Noticing the silence is always the next step. And if you can't go straight to the silence |
| 1:43.8 | you can go to your breath. The undercurrent of my breath is my mantra and lately it's |
| 1:51.1 | been the guy at three mantra. In the show notes I'll share with that mantra means. |
| 1:56.9 | Ramana Maharshi said it's all you need. Not the words but what the words are pointing |
| 2:03.3 | you to. And those words point to me to the remembrance of the presence of God where |
| 2:08.2 | I am. And in that remembrance that I can feel and I'm feeling now and that you're feeling |
| 2:16.7 | now as that relief and that surety when we're together we don't doubt, right? And these |
| 2:24.3 | quiet moments that we spend together are establishing a faith. Surrada Davy said certainly |
| 2:31.1 | you will have doubts. There will be questioning and then faith will return again. Every day |
| 2:38.2 | we return to faith every morning. And she said that's how faith is established. That's |
| 2:44.2 | what we're seeing back and forth. The seeming two steps forward and one step back which |
| 2:49.5 | could seem frustrating until you remember that you're on an escalator. The doubting, |
