			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Long time positive thinking teacher, author and mentors <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/louise-hay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Louise Hay">LOUISE HAY</a> &#038; CHERYL RICHARDSON will be presenting some truly enriching perspectives for you or anyone you know in San Jose, March 18th, 2012.</p>
<p>The topic of their keynote talk is: Holding Steady in Times of Change</p>
<p>Louise Hay knows a few things about surviving and thriving during times of change or crisis because she&#8217;s been through some tough times in her life.  If anyone knows how to teach you and I about how to remain steady in a changing world, it&#8217;s Louise Hay. This is one lady who clearly has her feet on the ground, yet her head in the clouds where the view is clear and calm.</p>
<p>During times of great change it&#8217;s important to lean on the tried-and-true principles that support an evolving spiritual journey. During this keynote address, Louise Hay and Cheryl Richardson will talk about these principles and offer you specific ways to use them in your life. You&#8217;ll learn about the importance of taking simple steps consistently; practical tools to maintain optimism during stressful times; the creative power of patience, ways to shore up your faith in Divine order, and developing the ability to attract what you need by putting (and keeping) yourself in the right state of mind. You&#8217;ll laugh, you&#8217;ll cry and you&#8217;ll leave feeling inspired to use change as a catalyst for living an exceptional life. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While reading a news report about <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/charlie-sheen/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Charlie Sheen">Charlie Sheen</a>&#8217;s reaction to the popular show &#8216;<a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/two-and-a-half-men/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Two and a Half Men">Two and a Half Men</a>&#8217; being suspended by the producer Lorre and <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/cbs/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with CBS">CBS</a>&#8217;s, it occurred to me that a dose of <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/kindness/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with kindness">kindness</a> would be in order. Charlie is reacting in anger and attacking the producer after hearing the news of the show being placed on hold until issues are resolved.  </p>
<p>Reacting in anger is a sign of frustration, but focusing on the obligations and responsibilities of the producer is a more proactive approach.  Every relationship is better served by kindness and understanding.  Kindness is an act of respecting and honoring oneself.  Kindness towards those with who you and I, or in this case Charlie Sheen, has relationships with is the higher road to take allowing for resolution to the TV show crisis. </p>
<p>Kindness creates the opportunity for healing, whereas, reacting with blame, <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/name-calling/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with name calling">name calling</a> or anger give rise to more tensions.  Tension is a form of friction which serves neither party.  If Charlie keeps creating more tension both parties will move apart rather than cooperate for mutual benefit.</p>
<p>Anger is also a destructive defense mechanism which only builds a greater wall between the two parties, Charlie Sheen and Two and a Half Men show producer Lorre.</p>
<p>Harming oneself is bad enough, but harming another person creates a great deal more negative karma.  The greatest benefit comes from cooperation rather than antagonism. There are more good possible outcomes when coming together to work through a challenge.</p>
<p>Attacking others, especially those who have given us opportunities to make living, undermines both the attacker and the person being attacked. The only way forward for a healing to take place is through acknowledging one&#8217;s own errors and making efforts to heal them. Without kindness and compassion relationships will be marred by the scars of hurt and anger.</p>
<p>I always recommend to those I teach about healing anger, injury, blaming study a series called <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/aw00287d.html" target = blank" >Loving Kindness Meditations</a> short course by Sharon Salzberg.</p>
<p>Anger is caused by pain or hurt. But if you or I react in anger with more injury to the other person, then more anger results. Compassion is the antidote to anger and injury.  Compassion focuses on the other person&#8217;s needs. In this case that would be the fans, CBS network executives and the producer.  Does<em> Two and Half Men</em> producer Lorre have a right and obligation to protect the show, the network from threats to the show?  Most would say, yes he does. He is the boss. What employer would tolerate illegal conduct from an employee, even a highly paid contract employee?</p>
<p>In the words of Sharon Salzberg, <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/aw00287d.html" target = blank> &#8220;Loving kindness meditations</a> are not a technique for repressing your awareness of life&#8217;s pain. Rather, it is a way to break down the artificial mental barriers that separate you from others.&#8221;<a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/SharonSalzberg.jpg"><img src="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/SharonSalzberg.jpg" alt="SharonSalzberg CBSs Suspension of Two and a Half Men" title="SharonSalzberg" width="115" height="116" class="alignright size-full wp-image-903" /></a></p>
<p>The benefit of watching another person, whether Charlie Sheen, or any public figure struggle with tough emotions, is that you and I can learn how to not face a similar situation.  We can learn from each other even when there are bloopers being expressed.  Two and a Half Men is a very popular show with a huge following and provides CBS with strong ratings. It would benefit all parties if Charlie would draw down the anger, focus on the need of the show, and his loyal fan following.  This takes some restraint but will give him the opportunity to practice compassion, kindness and understanding.  </p>
<p>I recommend this wonderfully easy to use reflective <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/aw00287d.html" target = blank" >Loving Kindness Meditation</a> practice in order to reduce emotional friction while increasing skills to cope with hurts, disappointments and daily challenges. The need for more kindness towards <em>Two and a Half Men</em> producer Lorre is certainly called for. After all, he is the boss, and what he is doing is reasonable given the recent crisis. </p>
<p>If you, or someone you know is struggling with anger, <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/hurt-feelings/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with hurt feelings">hurt feelings</a> or would benefit from <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/developing-empathy/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with developing empathy">developing empathy</a> and compassion, then click on the links called <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/aw00287d.html" target = blank" ><a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/loving-kindness-meditations/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Loving Kindness Meditations">Loving Kindness Meditations</a></a> to get a copy for developing this life saving skill. This series is easy to use. </p>
<p>Wishing you loving kindness and healing,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Caring for one another creates a <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/flow-of-blessings/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with flow of blessings">flow of blessings</a> from the <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/angelic-kingdom/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Angelic Kingdom">Angelic Kingdom</a>, God and the Masters which you often times never imagine in the beginning of the experience.  You never really know where the <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/journey-of-love/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with journey of love">journey of love</a> will lead you at the outset of the experience. But, if you reach out to someone around you that is hurting and in need, often you receive the gift of love in return.</p>
<p>Here is a story my friend Monika shared with me recently.  See if this story of caring for another creates a flow of blessings for you too.  You might find yourself knodding your head in agreement, &#8220;Yes, I have been there when I performed a random act of <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/kindness/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with kindness">kindness</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Someone just gave me a prescious gift. While drinking my cup of coffee outside at a cafe I was feeling slightly alone.  A disabled man approached me asking for food.  My first reaction was judgement  because of his appearance. But then something happened. I bought him as much food that I could afford to.  He ate with me at my table while I drank my coffe. We sat together for some time talking about life. The love that I felt towards him was priceless. His name is Edward.  I want to thank Edward for this gift of love we experienced in a moment where two people sharing some time together just being there with one another.  Edward reached out when in need, and I reached back to help him have a nice meal.  I lost the feeling of loneliness and was given a precious gift by seeing that when we help someone, we feel love too.  I don&#8217;t feel alone anymore.  I realized we are ALL ONE family here to help each other in times of need.&#8221;</p>
<p>When you express love and compassion towards others through random acts of kindness something amazing happens. You are blessed as well by the energy of love flowing through us to that person in need.  We know love through expressing love.  We experience love when giving love in service to others.  Love is a current that is ours only when we maintain the flow of love.  </p>
<p>When the opportunity presents itself to help someone, reach out. You are a <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/servant-of-love/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with servant of love">servant of love</a> when you express love and compassion to others.<br />

<p>Often times you miss little opportunities each day to do what is in your best interest. With each moment an opportunity to live with love, <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/acceptance/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with acceptance">acceptance</a>, joy and kindness presents itself.  Take advantage of those opportunities when they present themselves.</p>
<p>If you want more love in your life, treat your body, emotions and mind with loving-kindness.  This is the foundation of good relations with others.  You give to the world what you have inside of your heart and mind.</p>
<p>Loving-kindness is the king of all qualities. With it you can move worlds, connect with God, Source, the Divine or enlightened qualities.</p>
<p>You can heal anything with loving kindness if it is maintained on a regular basis.  My life enriching meditation course called the <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/FGmeditationcourse.html" target = blank"> Joy of Meditation: 6 Lessons to Increase Positive Energy<br />

<p>This meditative quote on the power of harmony and love is taken from the <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/agni-yoga/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Agni Yoga">Agni Yoga</a> book series, <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/LeavesOfMoryasGardenTheCall.html">Leaves of Morya&#8217;s Garden</a> &#8211; The Call, verse 22, page 15&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Love the manifestation of harmony.<br />
I send the blessed token of Gupta.*<br />
My Word is the flashing copper.<br />
Await and attune thine ear;  My Lips would speak.”</p>
<p>Note: Gupta is widely considered the great Golden Age in Ancient India. The Gupta period was established around approximately 320 CE and lasted until to 550 CE. The Indian Gupta Empire was a strikingly enlightened period of world history. The Gupta Empire covered a large portion of what is now Indian Subcontinent . It was founded by Maharaja Sri-Gupta, who brought together the best minds, thinkers, craftsman, holy men to forge a dynasty which became a model of a classical civilization.  This period of great peace and prosperity created under leadership of Guptas allowed for the pursuit of scientific, religious, cultural and artistic endeavors. </p>
<p>How does harmony manifest love in your life?</p>
<p>How does love cause harmony and alignment with the highest?</p>
<p>And, how does harmony cause love?</p>
<p>Does love ask us to listen to others more than to speak to them, or at them?</p>
<p>Love clearly creates understanding, good communication and cooperation.</p>
<p>Think of harmony as the result of listening to your soul or higher Self what is tuning you like an instrument.</p>
<p>The purpose of listening inwardly is to act with greater harmony in your daily life.</p>
<p>Your aura is the music, the canvas, the book you are creating.</p>
<p>Your aura is the record of your harmony with the Great Musician who writes the music of your life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Love Each Other &#8211; I Shall Send Thee Pure Thoughts…</p>
<p>This meditative quote from <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/master-morya/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Master Morya">Master Morya</a> on loving each other is taken from the <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/agni-yoga/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Agni Yoga">Agni Yoga</a> book series, <a href="http://www.fourgates.com/LeavesOfMoryasGardenTheCall.html">Leaves of Morya&#8217;s Garden</a> &#8211; The Call, verse 33, page 18&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Love Each Other &#8211; I shall send thee pure thoughts.<br />
I shall strengthen thy desire for perfection.<br />
By love would I heal the unjust ones.<br />
Ramakrishna says:<br />
   “Love, and all will come unto thee.”</p>
<p>I rejoice in unveiling the manifestations of life’s complexities.”</p>
<p>Throughout history, love has been written about more than any other subject except probably money.  Yet, from the spiritual point, which is more comprehensive than the mundane materialistic point of view, if you have more love in your life, all of your needs will be met.  </p>
<p>What is ironic is that according to Master Morya, and the Great Indian Saint, Ramakrishna, cultivating the power of love will draw all things to us. </p>
<p>Why is love so important?</p>
<p>Love is important to express in daily life because your expressions of true love are simply a smaller current flowing out from the Ocean of Love and Compassion.  Loving others is one way to stay connected to Source, God or higher Self.</p>
<p>Love is synonymous with heaven, nirvana, God, Source, Higher Self, Great Spirit or whatever you feel most comfortable calling the One Presence within and behind all appearances.</p>
<p>Master Morya is saying, love each other because that is how we stay connected to God, through loving.  If the water of life flows through your life, then the garden of your life will be abundant with the fruits of love.</p>
<p>The inspiration shared in Master Morya’s writings is filled with thought provoking and encouraging words. Enjoy His writings often because each phrase is rich with spiritual nourishment, encouragement, wisdom, joy, inspiration and lasting meaning.  </p>
<p>Meditate upon these phrases often, and re-read them whenever you have moments to nourish your True Self, God, Source or <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/pure-nature/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with pure nature">pure nature</a>. In order to live the best life possible, cultivate positive karmic tendencies to think, feel and act with loving-<a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/kindness/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with kindness">kindness</a>. </p>
<p>Spend moments throughout the day focusing on the good within yourself and others. This opens the door to the soul where inner guidance, blessings and abundance can be found.</p>
<p>You can use Master Morya&#8217;s writings as a source of meditation, or as “seed thoughts” to ponder upon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blessings and Happy Valentines Day! </p>
<p>The true meaning of Valentine&#8217;s Day is to <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/cultivate-unconditional-love/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with cultivate unconditional love">cultivate unconditional love</a> for all beings.  If we all stretch ourselves for even five minutes a day to love the world unconditionally as God loves us, then it would transform the entire world. Or, <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/imagine-loving-all-beings/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with imagine loving all beings">imagine loving all beings</a> with such <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/universal-compassion/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Universal Compassion">Universal Compassion</a> and <a href="http://askaspiritualteacher.com/tag/kindness/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with kindness">Kindness</a> as does Christ or Buddha. Imagine what that would look like, feel like and how we could live more fully in the presence of that expression of expansive love.</p>
<p>Try this exercise for five minutes a day></p>
<p>* Sit quietly for one minute, and then feeling love and compassion radiating from the Source of inspiration into your heart</p>
<p>* Then see the love and compassion radiating out to<br />
everyone in the world as numberless light rays.  </p>
<p>Practice this exercise for 1 week, and then write me to express what effects this had on your body, emotions and mind.  </p>
<p>How did this exercise change you?</p>
<p>With love and compassion for all beings, today and every day.</p>
