It is possible to say that your consciousness can be equated with what you are thinking about. If your consciousness, your personal consciousness, is a vibration, then you vibrate according to your thoughts.

Listen well to the silence within you. Within the silence are all the answers you are seeking. You understand, I am speaking of the silent Known yet Unknown within you. It cannot be seen. It cannot be heard except as your heart hears it. It speaks volumes to you, beloveds, this silence in which all is contained.

Every day is an auspicious day for you, beloveds, and today is especially so.

The Earth itself is opening like a flower, like a bright bold flower. Everyone will be speechless at the beauty of life on Earth as it reveals itself in blazing color. The Earth has come out of hiding, so to speak. Heretofore, the Earth has had its arm over its eyes and pulled the wool over yours as well.

The world went into hiding, and you went along with the scam.

You perhaps saw details but did not see the big picture.

Children play the games they play. Children like to play in mud. They like to play cops and robbers. They like to play hide go seek. They like to break toys. They like to build sand castles, and they like to knock them down. They like to play. Play makes sense because it is play.

As the children become adults, they continue to play games. The game they play then is called life, considered by many to be real life, and very very serious. Play is really entered into, and sometimes at all costs.

Your consciousness strides across the Earth. It spans space and time. It is one stride you take across the Earth. The Earth revolves under you.

Your arms surround the Earth so the Earth you walk on you also hold in your arms.

Your girth is the Earth's. Your feet propel it. Your breath spins it, and your breath warms it. Your heart pulsates through the vibrating Earth.

Your thoughts grow on it.

The surface of the Earth is your skin and hair. They grow out into trees. The trees sprout leaves and your ears roses, and it is you who covers the Earth with your thoughts.

Everything is a step. Even ego is a step. Just don’t spend too long on it.

Ninety-eight percent or more of upset is ego-bred.

If you had not felt discounted, you wouldn’t have been so angry, and maybe a situation wouldn’t have arisen. Maybe you wouldn’t have been fired or walked out and quit. Maybe you would have seen something through. Or maybe you would have left anyway, but not flounced off, and you would have made friends as you left.

Perhaps you think I gave you an impossible task on Earth, to be a new-born babe, to be a great soul in a body in a world that emphasizes the physical and downplays the spiritual. You too will follow along with the crowd, forgetful of your soul’s importance. Yet, stalked by a vague sense of your soul and its importance to you and the world, you lead two seemingly divergent lives, the physical seeming to downplay the spiritual and the soul unimpressed by the relative. Certainly, they seem to walk on two different sides of the street.
