As we move forward on our life path, we meet challenges that confront us and command our full attention. We can see the road ahead is filled with obstacles and we get to choose how to work with them. We can engage with life’s challenges to grow ourselves more and more every step of the way. Learning how to handle our mind states makes the inner journey incredibly rewarding. The higher we go, the more we raise our vibration, the clearer we can see a vast and breath-taking perspective of it all.

Study:

  • Acts of Courage

  • Healing Sounds

  • Power of Decision

Practice:

  • Breath of Fire

  • Joyful Effort

  • Contemplation

When somebody provokes your anger, the only reason you get angry is because you’re holding on to how you think something is supposed to be. You see it’s the expectations of your own mind that are creating your own hell. When you get frustrated because something isn’t the way you thought it would be, examine the way you thought, not just the thing that frustrates you. You’ll see that a lot of your emotional suffering is created by your models of how you think the universe should be and your inability to allow it to be as it is.
— Ram Dass
