Emerson's Declaration of Spiritual Independence


"Thoughts are like the wind; they come and go. The secret is not to "think" about thoughts, but to allow them to flow through the mind, while keeping your mind free from after thoughts." ~Sogyal Rinpoche ..*:

"Standing on the bare ground, ... 
my head bathed by the blithe air, 
and uplifted into infinite space, ... 
all mean egotism vanishes. 
I become a transparent eye-ball; 
I am nothing; I see all; the currents of the 
Universal Being circulate through me; 
I am part or particle of God."

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~

This month’s theme is ‘A New Dawn’ and it is action packed with lots of energy activity, it’s all geared towards forward movement, with less of the hard edges that we have seen in the past few months. But this comes with conditions too because September is also a month where we will see a lot of our past coming up for review and we have to choose which path we’ll follow – the past or the future.  Remember that the dawn arrives after the darkest part of the night. I think we’ve all been through that, don’t you?  We have big choices to make this month but we get help making them in the form of very supportive energy that will allow us to see more clearly, choose more powerfully, and act with confidence. Are you ready for some action? Then you’re ready for September."   There's a whole lot more ...
