Some people – well intentioned – tell you of this treatment or that meditation, and urge you to take up their experience or a new path. Is this spiritually right for you? Only you know. The Source has shared that your personal spiritual path is what feels most comfortable to you. (This is not letting you off conscience; conscience is the impression / communications from Source within you).

Buddhists all over the world will celebrate the birth, enlightenment and death of Buddha today, May 26, a day that is also a public holiday in many south asian nations. However, Vesak Day this year will be a lot more muted once again considering the rise in community Covid-19 cases in these countries. Many public places, including places of worship, have had to stop in-person events and reduce their occupancies significantly. This means that many of the rituals, processions and temple visits that normally happen on Vesak Day will not be able to go on as planned.

The power of speech is the communication between how you feel about yourself to the world around you. Words are sounds and concepts that you transmit. They are the display of how you feel about yourself, reality, and your state of being. The most important words we can utter are the great “I am.” This invocation can create our reality – happiness or misery. The power is in our thoughts, our words, our action.
