When I look outside and see that I am everything, that is love. And between these two, my life turns. - Sri N. Maharaj I am a mystic..... I believe and live by Spirit Led Living... I believe and experience that we are all Spiritual Beings having and earthly or physical existence. I believe we are all teachers on some level....and students.  For me God works and expresses through people and situations.... All is God... all is Divine and in Divine Right Timing. My peace comes in aligning to this.  My life experience has shown me we are all here to connect, to experience, to create and allow our full radiant self expression.  I believe "karma" is simply cause and effect as in vedic and esoteric teaching; in the sense of paying back is obsolete. We are in the present moment connecting and co-creating our reality.  Yes, there is fate or destiny and within that I do have free will to co-create within the Divine Plan for the highest good; which to me means we all have a lot of creative input and a lot to share, receive and give.  What each of us thinks and does is relevant and is assisting in creating greater consiousness.  Remember who you truly are, A Divine Spiritual Being expressing, living and being........ and experiencing this human/earthly life..... You are both human, transcendent and divine......and your freedom lies in knowing this.  The truth for me is that spirit is behind all things great and small. And, God is spirit expressing through us as us...  I love helping people access this truth, live it. To me we are all meant to live full spectrum to create fulfillment.... And, in some way share what we have or know.....  I dance to my inner rhythm and flow of life. I get a great joy and fulfillment from assisting others to connect with their own inner being and dance to their life with joy and fulfilment.  My love of devotional music, chanting and creating guided imagery and meditation processes comes from my dharma... My Life Work...... which chose me... I have always felt a deep connection to God- to spirit and my spiritual nature. I have always felt universal.....beyond labels, religion and ethnicity. I have always felt a deep connection to All That Is and humanity.  I have felt of another world and of this world and lived centered in between ultimately seeing and experiencing they are one.... We all are one.... From one source....one heart one mind reflecting as many....Thank you for visiting, connecting and sharing..... Celebrate Your Life......It is Your Divine Expression.  <a href="http://s137.photobucket.com/albums/q214/rosepinerunnergirl/?action=view&current=th4d191aa1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Spiritual Flute" src="http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q214/rosepinerunnergirl/th4d191aa1.jpg" border="0"></img></a>  <object height="80" width="300"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never"></param><param name="movie" value="http://media.imeem.com/m/PDlC4UUqq_"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"> &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp<embed allowscriptaccess="never" src="http://media.imeem.com/m/PDlC4UUqq_" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="300" height="110" wmode="transparent"></embed></param></param></object>  Close your eyes and you will see clearly.  Cease to listen and you will hear the truth.  Be silent and your heart will sing.  Seek no contacts and you will find union.  Be still and you will move forward on the tides of the spirit.  Be gentle and you will need no strength.  Be patient and you will acheive all you seek.  Be humble and you will remain complete.  (due to all the drama of yahoo 360 and malfuctions I no longer have a page there.

Our attitudes are profoundly and positively affected by the presence of love in our lives. Each time we offer a loving response to a friend, co-worker, even a stranger, we powerfully influence the dynamics of the interaction between us. Every response we make to someone changes us while it informs him or her. When we treat others with disdain, we invite the same. When we express only criticism of others, our self-assessment is equally negative. The beauty of a loving posture is that it calls forth love in response. The more love we give away, the more we receive. Any task before us is lessened when we carry love in our hearts. Love is more powerful than fear. Love helps to open the channel to God, assuring us of the strength, the understanding, and the patience needed to complete any assignment confronting us. God loves me, unconditionally. And I will e... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/35/Love Fri, 4 Jul 2008 04:52:23 -0000 Divine Love <img class="alignmiddleb" src="http://images.zindyzoe.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SGf4awoKCDUAAAuqhKk1/2102650540_c1b431becb_m.jpg?et=FKl7pDtHOvEj1uOop8inBg&nmid=0" border="0">Divine Love is not human "romantic" love. It is of a spirtual nature, it is all-encompassing and unconditional. Divine Love is often attributed only to God and/or spiritual beings. Yet as we are all sparks of the creator (The Divine) and as the Creator is Love, we are therefore also love, we are therefore also love - Divine Love is who we really are, yet in our human state and using mostly our five senses, we have forgotten this and we perceive other people and animals and nature as "separate" from ourselves. But we are all made of the same "stuff" and are all therefore "One" and all connected. This is confirmed on a scientific level with Quantum Physics. It is our perception of separateness the causes all the woes we have in this world. http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/34/Divine_Love Sun, 29 Jun 2008 21:02:43 -0000 A Balenced Life. As we strive to lead a balanced life, which may give inner satisfaction to the self, i.e., it brings self-esteem to us and also contributes to the social good of our world. But we hardly realize what the prerequisites for such a balance in life are. There is a growing realization in people the world over that our attitude is the real determinant of our success in life.    If our attitude is based on a spiritual way of life, we are destined to act and react in a different way. If we are steeped in materialism and value only mundane possessions, our attitude will only bring dissatisfaction to the self and we will not be able to contribute to the social good in valid sense.   Many people don’t distinguish between spirituality and religion.Spirituality is distinct from religion. Spirituality underlines the importance of the moral values, meditation and positive thinking. Spirituality covers people of all religions. Neither does it foreg... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/33/A_Balenced_Life. Tue, 17 Jun 2008 16:58:04 -0000 Love Remembered We fell hard, so hard our skin split open, exposing the inside of our hearts, and when we bled, our souls poured forth in a great gush of river, so strong it carried us out to sea, and there we drifted for days and days, while the salt crusted waves cleansed our wounds, and the sun set in our eyes. The moon bathed us in luminous light, as we floated over the dreams of dolphins, and listened to the chattering stars - they all had stories to tell, ancient fables that dripped like gold into the crevices of our minds and filled our bones with the winds of life - In love,everything is infinate. http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/32/Love_Remembered Wed, 11 Jun 2008 05:44:25 -0000 Prayer Dear Heavenly Father, Tonight I pray to you For someone in need I'm not sure what I can do Or what could come of this deed I want her to heal And I don't know how So on this floor I kneel As I pray to you now I wish she could hear me For I care so very much I wish she knew how great she is And maybe you can tell her Because she doesn't hear this Jesus, this is my only wish And before I go to sleep Just know I prayed for you And just know in my heart A place for you I will always keep So now I end my prayer Only with you in mind And only one more thing I ask "Can you make this world more kinder place?"

If ..... your thoughts shape your life, would you want what you were thinking right now to become true for you? If  it's a thought of worry or anger or hurt or revenge or fear, how do you think this thought will not come back to you? ..... Imagine yourself in line at a ... buffet in a luxurious hotel, where instead of dishes of food, there are dishes of thoughts. You get to choose any and all the thoughts of you wish. These thoughts will create your future experiences. Now, if you choose thoughts that will create problems and pain, that's rather foolish. It's like choosing food that always makes you ill .... It's the same with thoughts. Let us stay away from thoughts that create problems and pain.... I have never understood the importance of having to memorise battle dates in school ....

Sat, 31 May 2008 01:55:43 -0000 Tears Of Existance As the wind, like a lover, runs its  fingers  through my hair to reassure me of my existence, it's existence,our own. My tears mingle with those of the heavens as clouds join me in my sorrow and relieve me of my gloom. The yogi, in search of meaning, should not miss such opportunities, to know what moaksh must feel like. http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/29/Tears_Of_Existance Sun, 25 May 2008 16:16:15 -0000 "In Order To Feel Anything You Need Strength" -- Anna Maria Ortese Strength for any task, to withstand any pressure, to find the solution to any problem, is always as close as our very breath. We expend all our energy, wearing ourselves down, even getting sick from worry when we fail to turn to the source of strength that is ours for the taking. We are offered, moment-by-moment, opportunities to experience the rapture of life. We have the chance, to trust our senses, to turn ourselves over to the moment, knowing we can survive every experience, knowing we are guaranteed new knowledge, a greater awareness of the meaning of our own lives when we're fully attuned to the experiences that are uniquely our own, right here, right now. Our strength increases as we flex it, not unlike muscles. The more we turn to that greater power, the more available that source of strength becomes. With practice, it becomes habitual to let God help us withstand all pressures, solve every problem. In time, the pressures and problems seem to exist no more. We learn to let our hi... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/28/_In_Order_To_Feel_Anything_You_Need_Strength_--_Anna_Maria_Ortese Sat, 24 May 2008 14:06:32 -0000 THE PEAK OF PERFECTION You can climb the peak of perfection through resolute will, intense dispassion, renunciation and rigorous Meditation. Sublime divine thought is very powerful, it is a dynamic transmuting force. Diligently seek the path of truth; tread it carefully and vigilantly, for you may slip and fall. Love is harmlessness, kindness, compassion. Nothing can tempt you if you are regular in meditation. He who is pure at heart has already found divinity. Renunciation of egoism is the direct way to the eternal. Knowledge of the imperishable bestows perfect freedom and independence. Where egoism is, immortality is not; where immortality is, egoism is not. Concentration will give you great power. Collect the scattered rays of the mind. Lust and greed make you a spiritual bankrupt. Purity and meditation bestow on you inexhaustible divine wealth. A yogi becomes the master-builder of the temple of truth. Pass through the gate of wisdom - you will reach the illimitable domain of eternal bliss. He who is endowe... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/27/THE_PEAK_OF_PERFECTION Wed, 21 May 2008 21:56:07 -0000 A Prayer Of Comfort WHEN THE ROAD YOU HAVE WALKED DOWN SEEMS BROKEN, AND YOU FEEL INSECURE,LOST,AND EMPTY. YOUR SOUL IS REACHING OUT FOR SOMETHING, AND YOUR MIND NEEDS PUT TO EASE...... YOU FEEL HELPLESS FROM THEM LONG DAYS, WHEN SADNESS DWELLED DEEPLY FROM WITHIN YOUR HEART. LOOK TO GOD FOR HIS FAITHFUL LOVE, AN AMAZING GIFT OF COMFORT.... GAZE YOUR EYES UPON THE HEAVENS, LET GOD'S PEACE CALM YOUR FEARS TONIGHT! LET IT DROWN YOUR SORROWS AND OVERTAKE YOU, HE SEE'S YOUR SORROWS FROM YOUR TORN HEART..... REBUILD YOUR FAITH WITH GLORY, FULLFILL YOUR HOPES FROM BROKEN DREAMS, GOD HEARS YOUR EVERY THOUGHT IN PRAYERS, HE IS ALWAYS THERE WITH YOU, TO MEET YOUR EVERY NEED...... AND WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES TONIGHT, YOU WILL FEEL THIS WARMTH SECURE OF COMFORT, SNUGGLED AROUND YOU JUST LIKE A BLANKET, LIKE GOD DOES EACH NIGHT TENDERLY. http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/26/A_Prayer_Of_Comfort Sat, 17 May 2008 22:13:53 -0000 - Ralph Waldo Emerson Tent tethered among the jackpine and blue-bells. Lacewings rise from rock incubators. Wild geese fying north. And I can't remember who I'm supposed to be. I want to learn how to purr. Abandon myself, have mistresses in maidenhair fern, own no tomorrow nor yesterday: a blank shimmering space forward and back. I want to think with my belly. I want to name all the stars animals flowers birds rocks in order to forget them, start over again. I want to wear the seasons, harlequin, become ancient and etched by weather. I want to be snow pulse, ruminating ungulate, pebble at the bottom of the abyss, candle burning darkness rather than flame. I want to peer at things shameless, observe the unfastening, that stripping of shape by dusk. I want to sit in the meadow a rotten stump pungent with slimemold, home for pupae and grubs, concentric rings collapsing into the passacaglia of time. I want to crawl inside someone and hibernate one entire night with no clocks to wake me, thighs fragrant loam. I want t... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/25/_-_Ralph_Waldo_Emerson_ Tue, 13 May 2008 20:27:29 -0000 Self is everywhere Self is everywhere, shining forth from all beings, vaster than the vast, subtler than the most subtle, unreachable, yet nearer than breath, than heartbeat. Eye cannot see it, ear cannot hear it nor tongue utter it; only in deep absorption can the mind, grown pure and silent, merge with the formless truth. As son as you find it, you are free; you have found yourself; you have solved the great riddle; your heart forever is at peace. Whole, you enter the Whole. Your personal self returns to its radiant, intimate, deathless source. -Mandaka Upanishad http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/24/Self_is_everywhere Fri, 9 May 2008 20:12:46 -0000 Reaching For The Stars Always aim higher than you believe you can reach. So often, you'll discover that when your talents are set free by your imagination, you can achieve any goal. If people offer their help or wisdom as you go through life, accept it gratefully. You can learn much from those who have gone before you. But never be afraid or hesitant to step off the accepted path and head off in your own direction if your heart tells you that it's the right way for you. Always believe that you will ultimately succeed at whatever you do, and never forget the value of persistence, discipline, and determination. You are meant to be whatever you dream of becoming. http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/23/Reaching_For_The_Stars Sun, 4 May 2008 01:29:17 -0000 Can you guess what the answer to every question is?   Love is the answer to every question. Why are we here? Love. Where do we come from? Love. How do we create world peace? Love. It may sound overly simplistic to the modern person, since we all want to analyze and look for complex answers to questions. We don’t believe that life is simple and the answers to its problems can also be simple.... love. In truth, what are anger, sadness, pain but the soul’s desire for love? If we learn to love ourselves without reservation, and to love the world in the same way, the answer is simple. It is impossible, when filled with love, to be aggressive or hate-filled or violent. When we know that we are beautiful and wonderful, we see the world through those eyes. We see the beauty and wonder in all things around us. We don’t need to look outside ourselves for the love we seek. It has been there all along. It is the voice of our self-esteem. It is our anger saying, ‘hey this is not right for me. I don’t want this in my life any longer.’ Self-love is say... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/22/Can_you_guess_what_the_answer_to_every_question_is Thu, 1 May 2008 04:55:40 -0000 What if, What if... a long, long time ago... somebody told you that you would one day live on a beautiful planet, surrounded by stars and mountains and oceans and where almost anything was possible... What if they told you that you'd have the ability to laugh and sing and love... and that you'd also be met by many interesting, sometimes painful challenges, all of them designed to teach you important lessons you will need for future journeys.

When all the words have been written, and all the phrases have been spoken, the great mystery of life will still remain. We may map the terrains of our lives, measure the farthest reaches of the universe, but no amount of searching will ever reveal for certain whether we are all children of chance or part of a great design. And who among us would have it otherwise? Who would wish to take the mystery out of the experience of looking into a newborn infant’s eyes? Who would not feel in violation of something great if we had knowledge of what has departed when we stare into a beloved face of one who has died? These are the events that made us human, that define the distance between the stars and us. Still, this life is not easy. Much of its mystery is darkness. Tragedies occur, injustices exist. Bad things befall good people and sufferings are visited upon the innocent. To live we must take the lives of other species, to survive we must leave some of our brothers and sisters by the... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/19/Pondering_Lifes_Mysterys... Sat, 26 Apr 2008 23:23:39 -0000 friendship poem Each of us has a hidden place Somewhere deep within ourselves; A place where we go to get away, To think things through, To be alone, to be ourselves. This unique place, where we confront our deepest feelings, Becomes a storehouse of all our hopes, All our needs, all our dreams, And even our unspoken fears. It encompasses the essence of who we are and what we want to be. But now and then, whether by chance or design, Someone discovers a way into that place we thought was ours alone. And we allow that person to see, to feel and to share All the reason, all the uncertainty And all the emotion we've stored up there. That person adds new perspective to our hidden realm, Then quietly settles down in his own corner of our special place, Where a bit of himself will stay forever. And we call that person a friend. Thanks for your friendship! http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/18/friendship_poem Mon, 21 Apr 2008 22:18:15 -0000 Patience How sick and tired we may become of people telling us to be patient or to learn patience. How frustrating it can be to want to finally have something, or to move forward, and then not have that happen. How irritating to have someone tell us to wait while our needs have not been met and were in the midst of anxiety, frustration, and inaction. Do not confuse the suggestion to be patient with the old rule about not having feelings. Being patient does not mean we go through the sometimes-grueling process of life and recovery without having feelings! Feel the frustration. Feel the impatience. Get as angry as you need to about not having your needs met. Feel your fear. Controlling our feelings will not control the process! We find patience by surrendering to our feelings. Patience cannot be forced. It is a gift, one that closely follows acceptance and gratitude. When we work through our feelings to fully accept who we are and what we have, we will be ready to be and have more. Today, I will let m... http://zindyzoe.multiply.com/journal/item/17/Patience Sun, 13 Apr 2008 15:07:38 -0000 My most missed memories My most missed memories take place by the creek in the woods behind my house, or in the mulch beds by the front door. They take place in the breezy days of spring and in the sweltering summers. Those were the days when my sister and I would venture joyfully outside and unload our creativity on the world. We'd throw on our mud boots and wade through the creek, marveling at the little schools of fishes, water spiders and the ocassional crayfish. Then we'd snatch up our precious walnut shell boats and race them down one of the many rivulets of water, running alongside to catch them before they were swallowed up by the creek. We'd stand on the gigantic tree trunk that had fallen across the rushing water, daring each other to jump off onto the small sliver of sandy beach and rocks. Then we'd venture across the tree to the other side of the creek, where we sometimes saw a mysterious "witch lady" who would creep up behind us with her german shepard and send us running.
