SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 153

WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE OF HOLINESS

+ Every being is an abode of God, worthy of respect and reverence.

-- Hindu Scripture

Gratefulness Word for the Day on  5/29/16

+ You are holy. Right now. Right here. Know this. Be this. Enjoy this. Sing, shout, dance this. All creation is singing, shouting, dancing. Now. Here.

“Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God Almighty, Heaven and Earth are full of your glory. Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.”

Shine. Shine. Shine. Be who you are. Give it away. The world needs you to be who you are. The world needs to receive your gifts. Give freely. Give fully. Don’t hold back. We all gain so much when you are who you are.

“To be nobody-but-yourself in a world which is trying to turn you into anybody-but-yourself is to fight the hardest battle there is to fight and never stop fighting.” – E.E. Cummings

Let those words sink down deep into your consciousness.

It’s a battle. Forces are aligned against you, the real you. These forces are everywhere but look no further than deep within because that’s where the battle must be fought. But don’t worry. You will win. It is set up that way. Sooner or later you will prevail. You have already come far. You have already won many battles over your false self, your ego desires. It’s a battle but you have what it takes to win. You are holy.  You are fantastic.  You are wonderful.  Yes, you.

+ One of the 37 Spirituality & Practice practices is called YOU.  There is a 12s gallery on YOU.  The meme with the quote by Rainer Maria Rilke comes from that gallery.

+ Holiness is not one of the 37 Spirituality & Practice practices BUT put Holiness in their Search Engine and you come up with 460 items including 227 quotes, 168 books, 28 practices, 14 teachers, 12 arts links, 7 e-courses, 3 films and 1 blog as of 5/11/16.  Go to http://www.spiritualityandpractice.com/search/?q=holiness.

+ The Body gets a lot of attention from Spirituality and Practice as you can see when you go to a link to “Body” on their search engine. You will find 1611 items as of 4/26/16.

+ I would love it if you offered a guest post on this practice or any practice.  And, I have work to do on my Holiness Page.   Maybe you can help.  Send an email with the subject “Holiness” or “Guest Post” to John@abundancetrek.com.
