Thoughts of Awakening # 243

September 23, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

To what am I giving my attention today?
To my mind?

To its stories?
To its worries and fears and concerns?

Or does my attention
follow my Heart?

Its quiet trust.
Its knowing.

Its peace.

Where am I?

What do I think I am?

Where is my attention?

~A corrective self-inquiry
give by Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 242

September 22, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Seek Self before you go to sleep at night.
Let the search for Self be the first thought when you awaken.

Inquire for the Self as you eat your meals.
Be aware of the Heart as your hands are working.

As you recline, contemplate the Self.
As you walk, carry your Heart with you.

Never let your attention stray from your love of Self
or your inquiry of it.
Let this be your one purpose,
and live life fully.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 241

September 21, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Follow the Voice of the Heart.
It is Your Voice and My Voice
as one.

It speaks for You
as I speak for You.

Recognize its call,
and hurry there.

~From our Holy Spirit

Filed Under: Daily Contemplation, GentleHealingTips-Year2, Sidebar

Thoughts of Awakening # 240

September 20, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

“Abide in Me
as I abide in you”
is a call to abide
in the Heart.

To abide in the Heart
is to listen to the Heart.

(Not to the mind,
but to the silent glow of the Heart,
which has no ongoing commentary
about the world)

The Heart is still.
Listen to it,
and let the world be.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 239

September 19, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Be willing not to define anything.

Everything you see and experience now
comes through past definition.
It is as it is
because it was defined
to be that way.

Observe it as it is
and let it go.

Let the butterfly,
which came from the caterpillar,
transform into Light.

Set it free,
and you set you free.

This is non-attachment.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 238

September 18, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Recognize the truth
of this statement today:

“What I really want to do
is what my Heart guides me to do,
but because I listen to my mind,
I do not do it.

“I betray myself
and delay myself
by listening to a voice
that isn’t me.”

And then decide to listen differently.
Decide to listen to
and follow
the joyous Voice
of the Heart.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 237

September 17, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

“Abide in Me

as I abide in you”

is a request.

When you say “yes,”
it is a devotion.

It is a devotional promise
to listen to Me,
to practice with Me,
and to be one in my love
until you know nothing
but Me
as Me.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 236

September 16, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Ask yourself, “What am I?”
Continue to ask
until you are certain
of the answer.

And then, let yourself
be led from there.
Let yourself
live from there.

Do not let yourself
forget
what you have discovered
you are.

~From our Holy Spirit

Filed Under: Daily Contemplation, GentleHealingTips-Year2, Sidebar

Thoughts of Awakening # 235

September 15, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

Identity is an obstacle,
because identity defines you
as separate
from everything else you experience.

It says you are unique,
different, stand-apart,
and special.

These ideas are in opposition
to truth,
because these ideas create
the illusion of opposition
where there is only peace.

Continue to ask, “What am I?”,
remembering that the answer
is beyond definition.

And notice that even when
you are not asking the question,
the mind is constantly answering
with ideas of defined identity.

~From our Holy Spirit

Thoughts of Awakening # 234

September 14, 2018 By Dawn Fernandez

When one realizes
that he is not the one
he previously thought he was,
he is ready to attain
a permanent sense of Self.
He is ready to awaken to Self.

But when one believes fully
that he is what he is not,
he has no true interest
in Self-realization.

Ask yourself, “What am I?”
and let the belief in self
be washed away
through seeing that its limits
cannot be You.
