Religion and Spirituality

I believe there is an important distinction to be made between religion and spirituality.

Religion I take to be concerned with belief in the claims to salvation of one faith tradition or another – an aspect of which is acceptance of some form of meta-physical or philosophical reality, including perhaps an idea of heaven or hell. Connected with this are religious teachings or dogma, ritual, prayers and so on.

Spirituality I take to be concerned with those qualities of the human spirit – such as love and compassion, patience, tolerance, forgiveness, contentment, a sense of responsibility, a sense of harmony, which bring happiness to both self and others.

10 Secrets To Becoming A Catalyst For World Transformation

These secrets are meant to be shouted from roof tops and implemented to the extreme. Each one can be hugely life changing when you integrate it into your life.

This is your official invitation to do so at a higher level than you are currently. Now is the time to join together with passion.

The first step towards this change is changing you. Pick a secret and go with it. Now begin.

1. Choose to have only one way of being: living intentionally, deliberately, purposefully and be consistent to that no matter what hat you are wearing be endeavor towards your larger vision.

2. Reach inside when you hit obstacles. Instead of looking outside yourself by playing a subtle blame game, go deeply within instead. Uncover how you could make a different decision and then take focused, purposeful action accordingly.

3. Reach out to others, sharing your discoveries and thoughts with those inside your circle of influence and those outside your circle of influence. World transformation begins with communicating our beliefs into being.

4. Integrate your truth down to the cellular level. In acting from this level of belief, your transformation will be able to become visible to others. The sense of empowerment will then spread from you to others whose lives with whom you are in contact.

5. Facilitate growth of those around you through mentoring, coaching, teaching, and creating purposeful relationships. Even a “one minute relationship” may have life changing results! Be aware of possibilities in each conversation with each person you meet everyday.

6. Communicate with the power of a laser and the expansiveness of prosperous words. Make each word count. Practice this skill joyfully. Eliminate words of fear, scarcity and lack replacing them with words of love, abundance and prosperity.

7. Meet each person you encounter exactly where they are with love and compassion. Look into their eyes when you talk with them and really REALLY hear their words. Challenge them to no longer accept the status quo.

8. Effectively use your unique gifts rather than living according to someone else’s expectations for you. Embrace your gifts as yours. Trying to express someone else’s specialness creates counterfeit personal currency. Your gifts are riches like gold and silver.

9. Take passionate action every day. Do not miss a single day. As you are moving seriously towards world transformation, do not settle for manic action. Demand of yourself intentional, love filled, laser focused action. The results will speak volumes.

10. Laugh, cry, love, nurture, applaud with passion! Be alive in all things, whether it be in quiet contemplation of raucous celebration. Spread that aliveness.

Transform your life and in turn transform Your World.

Being A Lightworker by Jean-Claude Koven

Whatever they choose to call themselves is of little importance. What they do here is vital. These are the beautiful souls, the highly evolved beings, who have lovingly taken human form to be of service as this planet transitions into the next octave of creation. They have come from other dimensions and from distant places in this and other galaxies to work, play, and live among us as fellow humans.

Lightworkers are located all over the planet and number in the tens of millions. Yet most of them remain unaware of who they actually are or why they’re here – so thorough is the memory-blocking effect of the Veil of Forgetting, the energetic filter one must pass through to take human form. Many of them are living dual lives – partly in the mainstream of society, partly on its fringes. They frequent new age expos; they attend and often lead workshops; they meditate, pray for peace, and forward emails with poignant messages of love, gratitude, forgiveness, and hope. Above all, they have a gnawing feeling that they’ve come to serve, that something major is happening and they have some part to play in it.

Definition Of A Lightworker

Welcome to my little corner of the planet. What is a Lightworker, you ask? I see a Lightworker as one who has a strong resonance in their soul with wanting to heal themselves (one’s personal ascension) so as to be better able to assist others (ascension for all of humanity) and Mother Gaia (ascension for our beloved planet, Earth) with the same. In addition, I see dissemination of TRUTH being very paramount to the project as well.

Changing the world one Collective thought at a time is the HUGE task that we have been entrusted with, and it all begins from WITHIN. In the words of Mahatma Ghandi, “God has no religion. We must be the change we wish to see in the world”.
