No Conformity Just Bliss

There are no obligations in life other than the obligations we impose on ourselves. Is there only one road to travel? What if everyone on this planet was an exact replica of each other? The world would be a boring place, wouldn’t it? Then why are we trying to find one right path for everyone? Why are we trying to live our lives based on others’ preconceptions? What creates uniqueness, humanity and the universe? Conforming to the beliefs and expectations of everyone else, or conforming to Joseph Campbell’s quote which says “FOLLOW YOUR BLISS!” Danny G.

Teaching and Interconnection

We teach through the clarity of our example, and we attract people who are in the same vibrational frequency, and who benefit from our interactions. The world and humanity are all interconnected, and the universe knows how to orchestrate events in our favor for our ultimate well-being, and expansion. Danny G.

The Greatest Wisdom

The greatest wisdom is to know our creator and the laws that govern the universe. We can have all the intellect and knowledge in the world, but if we lack wisdom, we can’t do anything, and we stumble everywhere we go. Because intellect without wisdom is looking at the surface rather than the source. What better way to look at the source than to look at the one who created it all, including you. Look beyond the superficial ego and realize what truly matters, which is eternal. The soul is eternal, it never dies, and it always seeks joy and success, knowing ultimately how to get there. Danny G.

Life Requires Contrast to Create Evolution

We need contrast to create experience and evolution. We need a platform and a reference point to create our lives and change the world. Without a platform or reference point, there is no evolution and ultimately no journey. Without contrast, we cannot choose, and we cannot define who we are. Danny G. 

Many Roads to Rome

Is there a right or wrong, or are there simply better choices, that agree with our soul? Let’s acknowledge, there are many roads that lead to the same destination. We often worry about getting it wrong, making a detour, or wrong turn. The moment we get up again, our destination still remains. If we make an effort to let go and embrace the moment and opportunity to pursue our destination, we find there are many roads that lead to Rome. Let’s not make our journey more troubling, by doubting ourselves and denying our power. Let’s acknowledge many roads lead to Rome, and let’s choose the path that resonates with our soul. Danny G.

Stepping Back From the Chaos (Poem)

In the quiet of the night, 

Where everything is still, 

And dark 

Behind the misty sky,

The world shuts down, 

Stops, 

And dreams, 

Looks so real 

As we ponder 

The night-time visions

Of above, 

Giving us glimpses 

Of our daily thoughts

As we contemplate, 

Breathe,

And Rejuvenate.

When we get up, 

Like the quiet of the night, 

This place of stillness,

Away from the chaos 

Of today,

No distractions, 

Just being, 

Without contradictions, 

Steering us away,

From our divine purpose 

And unanswered prayers. 

We find a place within,

Where all answers are within, 

What was once hidden,

Is now within our reach,

As we contemplate, correlate,

And find our place,

In the chaotic world of today.

From this space of stillness,

What was once an annoyance 

And disturbance,

Is now a figment, 

Of our imagination,

Always was, 

We just didn’t accept it

Until we stepped back, 

And looked within, 

The essential calling, 

Of our soul.

 

Solitude Needed At Times (Poem)

Solitude is my friend,

My place of zen

Where I enter

When frustrated 

Indecisive 

Or angry.

I look within,

The only power 

I’ll ever have 

To change within 

So I can change 

The course.

When I enter within 

I can conquer mountains 

In front of me.

And I can enter the world, 

And be happy and at peace, 

Despite the chaotic world 

Of our nation.

Face Life the Real Way (Poem)

He came into this life,

With atrocities of every kind,

As all he wanted was a life

Free of trouble 

And heartache.

As he was looking for freedom, 

And inner peace,

He was bound by beatings, 

inferiority 

And abuse. 

He then reverted to alcohol, 

All day and all night,

As he was looking for stillness,

And couldn’t find it at home.

He then sank into this pit,

Of self-destruction 

And maze,

He couldn’t get out,

So he drank and smoked pot 

To relieve the pain. 

Numbness was his stillness, 

Until he developed 

Health problems, and this overwhelming sadness.

He was feeling empty,  

All this time, 

He was reverting to alcohol and drugs

To numb the pain.

Then one day, 

A lady came into his life,

Loved him like no other ever did.

Taught him self-love, 

How to appreciate the moment,

Finally he was happy and felt understood.

He never understood, 

Why he was brought up this way, 

But he knew this young lady 

Was a gift from God, till this day.

He then said to himself, 

No longer will I numb the pain, 

From this dark cloud,

Of self-destruction and maze.

Despite the troubles, 

I still see beauty in the world,

Despite its imperfections,

And I choose, to face life this way.

Is the World Getting Worse or Better?

We hear about the pessimists who say the world is getting worse, our lives are deteriorating, and there’s much more cruelty in the world. Look at these facts and decide for yourself if you want to be the pessimist or the optimist.

There has been a significant decrease in global war and deaths from 1945 to 2011. From 1945 to 2011 the global death rate has declined from 22 per 100,000 to 0.3 per 100,000. There has been a tremendous decrease in poverty over the past couple centuries. In 1820, there was 1 billion people who lived in extreme poverty. As of 2015, there was 705 million people who lived in extreme poverty. Consider the fact that the population has increased by approximately 6 billion people since 1820, and the number of poverty cases still decreased. Since 1900, the global life expectancy has more than doubled. Our medicines have improved substantially and our overall medical system has upgraded significantly.

Overall, is the world getting worse or better? Do you want to be the pessimist who sees the worse in everything? Or do you want to be the optimist who says, the universe is always progressing and expanding for the ultimate well-being of humanity. The crucial factor is how we perceive it. Danny G.

Everything Comes With Time

The people who are meant to be in your life for your own expansion, will always find you at the ideal time. There’s a season for everything, and God knows how to orchestrate events and circumstances in your favor. The universe knows how to connect the dots to bring about the very best outcome. Danny G.
