There is no identity for you except your spiritual identity…

 

SSSYWa

“There is no identity for you, except your spiritual identity. There’s no grace in you but to learn. There’s no achievement other than to become learned. There’s no power but to share what you have learned with all and everyone. Share with compassion – you’ll be compensated, and you shall have no complex.

Today: Watch and listen

You have access to a wealth of experience around you that you can use to guide you.  Your own inexperience should not impede your successfully navigating the many choices you face. Do not fear making choices thereby becoming paralyzed, nor rush into action with youthful folly. Your actions may seem ineffective at first or not enough, but the wise choices will pan out in the end. If you know the choice is right, the result will be favorable. Keep your eyes open and learn from your own and others’  experience. Remember what you have been taught.

I Ching: Today

Emotions, feelings, desire, commotion, ego…

 

SSSYWa
“Emotions, feelings, desire, commotion, ego – put it all together, and you lose your identity. The moment you lose your identity, you lose your impact. When there is no impact in your identity, you have no fact, you have no leg to stand on.” Yogi Bhajan
 (via Ram Anand)

The universe is asking you to confirm…

 

SSSYWa
“The universe is asking you to confirm with yourself whether you would like to serve the Earth, to save the Earth, be the sage of the Earth. Earth – the Sustainer, the Mother of you, which nurtures you – can you nurture it back? That which serves you, can you serve it back.” Yogi Bhajan
 (via Ram Anand)

Today: Start fresh – from the I Ching

It is a good day to begin something, or begin something again.  Regardless of how previous efforts were subverted, there now will be little resistance to your loftiest intentions.  If mistakes were made we can press reset and begin again with a blank slate.  If previously we did not know how to begin, we can proceed now confidently.

Those of you who have done it, know it…

 

SSSYWa
“Those of you who have done it, know it. There’s nothing I can add or say. With honesty, honor, and intensity you have done it; that’s your experience. It doesn’t take much to bring God down into us. Actually, God is in us. Simply sometimes we can just concentrate and become that. It’s called a turning point.” Yogi Bhajan
 (via Ram Anand)

Today: Go within and adapt yourself to the demands of the times – from the I Ching

Allow external matters to be what they are.  Go within yourself to find how you can adapt to the demands of the time and relate with all that is going on around you. You will find that there are kindred spirits who are engaging the same natural attractions and who will follow your example.  Engage them and still others will take notice and follow.

Rise in the morning…

SSSYWa“Rise in the morning, clean your self, exercise, and direct your mind to Infinity. Simple. But the mind knows. It is definitely aware of your effort and even the intentions of the effort. The mind is above time and space. It calculates the impact and consequence. The little act of sadhana will contain your mind and make your consciousness the ruler.”  –Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)

Today: Refuse the fruit offered by the serpent

Oppressors are attempting to seize power, violently, if necessary.  It is a situation of which many people are totally unaware.  When fruit offered by the serpent is refused, the snake swallows its own tail and the light is restored.  The main point is to remain grounded in reality and develop intuition so that subterfuge can be recognized and the damage it causes be avoided. There is nothing to be done other than to be aware and to look into one’s personal blind spots using the tools that we have been given.

I Ching: Today

The power of a teacher of Kundalini Yoga is in his zero…

SSSYWa“The power of a teacher of Kundalini Yoga is in his zero, in his shuniya. In shuniya you become zero, you reduce everything to nothing: “I am nothing. Everything is nothing. There’s nothing to be nothing.” The moment you become that, then everything radiates from you.” Yogi Bhajan

(via Ram Anand)

index fingertips very tightly against each other and chant, “Sat Naam, Sat Naam, Sat Naam Jee, Wah-hay, Wah-hay Guroo, Wah-hay Guroo Jee” with the instrumental tape “Duni.”

Today: You are the change – from the I Ching

You are the change that is called for. Read the Signs of the Times* and make the Season apparent to all.  Report the real abuse of power and oppression of the small by the powerful. You must rely on a strong personal foundation. Trust what you know because you will have to bring about this necessary change alone.  You cannot count on support among your peers, so you must summon the courage to move in the face of opposition.  Then you will be believed.
