“There is an overarching, underlying belief that awakening is a long, arduous attainment for but a select few.

There is also a phenomenon in consciousness that things tend to be as difficult as we make them.

Awakening to one’s true nature is not for a select few, it is everyone’s birthright and a natural developmental progression.

May I share a secret for you?  It’s closer and so much more accessible than you might have imagined.”

~ Jitendra

The frequency of awakening is increasing. The “veil” between worlds is getting thinner.  Continued…

“Emotional freedom can mean different things to different people.

For some, it’s freedom from emotion.  For some it’s freedom of emotional expression.

For others, it’s the freedom of feeling empowered in the midst of whatever emotion is arising.”

~ Jitendra

“Emotional freedom” has become a very popular phrase. It’s become a title for books, trademark for a technique and the aim of many a process.  Emotional freedom is promised Continued…

“Healthy boundaries  take away unneeded stress in
all relationships, intimate and professional.

Hint: They’re not necessarily walls.”

~ Jitendra

Boundaries are often confusing territory. This is because they are initially established unconsciously.

The first stage of recovering healthy boundaries usually involves setting clear and firm external limits with agreements and a firm ability to say “No.”

But unless you want to spend your life (and a lot of energy) maintaining those boundaries, the next stage of boundary awareness moves inside, to the source of what drives your experience with others. Continued…

“One view of the Law of Attraction focuses on external outcomes.  It says that by creating a certain inner resonance you will attract an outer reality to match that resonance.

The inside view of the Law of Attraction focuses on the inner state.  It notices that whatever is in your outer field of awareness is an out-picturing of the sum total of your consciousness.”

~ Jitendra

I often hear people say that the Law of Attraction isn’t working for them. Though it may FEEL like it’s not working, you can be certain it is – flawlessly. Continued…

“One of the greatest desires humans possess is the desire for connection.

The secret to fulfilling this desire for connection has to do with the quality of contact you have with your self.

What does “contact” with your self actually mean — and what is “quality” contact?

~ Jitendra

Our human bodies are designed for contact and yet it is, both, what people seek most AND fear most.  Why the great mystery and challenge? Continued…

Co-dependence or Compassion?

“Ever wondered how to know the difference between helping and enabling?

It’s not always obvious what the answer is. The difference lies not in the act of helping itself, but in the attitudes surrounding the act.

When your desire to help mixes with a belief that someone isn’t capable without you, you enter the sticky world of co-dependence.”

~ Jitendra

This question is one of the most common in relationships of all kinds.  It’s perfectly natural to want to help those we care about.  And it’s healthy to be able to ask for help! Continued…

Intimacy can provide unmatched satisfaction and fulfillment in connection with others.

Then why fear it?

What is the cost of opening?  Is the risk real or imagined?

What is this fear of Love at close range, actually?

’tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. ~Alfred Lord Tennyson

How delicious to relax into intimacy. When faith, trust and loving relationship converge, there is an opening to profoundly expand connection with your s/Self and another.

Beautiful and profound words…and true!

So then why do you suppose those occasions exist when people would rather have their fingernails plucked than open their hearts? Continued…

“Some people confuse acceptance with resignation.

Acceptance leaves your will intact, resignation leaves it behind.

Resignation happens when you can’t find your choice in a matter—or believe no choice exists.

Acceptance happens when you willingly choose to embrace a situation, knowing in your heart it is soul-directed for your highest good.”          ~ Jitendra

I’m often asked to explain the difference between acceptance and resignation. I know many people who sincerely and reverently describe how they are surrendered in their lives. Continued…

The Universe is guided by a higher intelligence, a higher power.

Because you cannot fathom a reason why, does not leave an event without meaning.

This is always true of our human experiences.  Even the most random seeming acts are organized at a higher level though we may refute, refuse or simply fail to acknowledge or understand their purpose.

There’s no such thing as a negative emotion.

Only outside of Love and understanding does emotion appear negative, for every emotion has a positive purpose to be fulfilled. Continued…

Integrity is derived from the Latin word integer, meaning whole or complete. You are in integrity when you come from a place within yourself that reflects the whole of you, in alignment.

This is challenging because there are so many dimensions of your self outside your conscious awareness.  You can’t align what you can’t perceive.

One moment you’re in complete integrity with an agreement you’ve made. The next minute you’re waking up to the realization that you’ve just made that promise from the unconscious depths of an old wound…and following through is not an option. Continued…
