"The greatest power on Heaven and Earth is thought." nfrom "The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ" by Levi

I get spiritual messages riding down the street. Words on cars, trucks and signs bring me important lessons to be remembered.

I was riding on a busy street the other day. My head was pushed far to my left, past the opposing traffic and on a sidewalk. The sign read, "Watch your head."

For the next two hours I was afraid that something was "wrong" with my head. All of a sudde
I realized it meant, "Watch your thoughts."

We all know that thoughts help to create our lives. We've heard it and seen it a million times. "Thoughts are things. Energy follows thought." (Hermes) Some times we need the present moment, the "now" to remind us of knowledge we have.

For the next few days I was truly conscious of every thought that passes this "monkey" brain of mine. It wasn't pretty.

My thoughts were filled with judgment and criticism for myself and others. As Jin Shin Jyutsu says, "Comparing, competing, judging, being judged." All these ideas can lead to disharmony in the physical body.

The great "mirror" talk hit home hard. What we see in others is a reflection of our own faults. It may not be to the same degree in us, but if we see it we have to own it!

Just where do I come off? I have been sitting in judgment of my best friends, not just my enemies. Lessons and more lessons, where do they end? The proverbial unraveling of the onion and its onion peels could be infinite.

Being a Master means making a thousand right decisions. My question is, do they have to be in order? A thousand right decisions, one after another?

Think thoughts of love and joy and ecstasy will be in your life.

To answer your question, let’s study the following words of Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan, an Enlightened being, very carefully. He says: “This puzzle has come about on its own, governed by the laws of science. I am telling you that this world is run only by Scientific Circumstantial Evidences.
