Our present lives as humans on earth are filled with increasing chaos, confusion about life, and our development of advanced methods of killing each other. This threatens our continuing human existence on planet earth. There is a powerful answer to all this - it involves the ‘power of the mind.
We humans have been gifted with minds. Our minds are not “of the body.” Minds transcend the body and have the ability to connect with universal wisdom. Jesus, as a human, was a perfect example of a person practicing the teachings of universal wisdom.
We have a choice each moment. We can either think, speak, and act from an ‘ego-based’ thought system involving selfish living, or a ‘spiritually based’ thought system involving love.
The differing characteristics of these thought system are as follows: The ‘ego-based’ thought system involves fear, greed, hate, anger, casting blame, and attack. The ‘spiritually based’ thought system involves, trust, joy, giving, forgiveness, peace, and love.
Today, our ‘ego-based’ thought system is definitely in charge in our nation and our world. To activate the ‘spiritually based’ thought system takes choice, listening, and practice, practice, practice. It is up to each of us to choose our thought system.
