Powers of Mind is our Birthright

We are not born to be powerless. We choose to be powerless.

It's important for us to remember that we were not divinely created to suffer in this world. We suffer because of our lack of understanding about our Powers of Mind, and how this is our clarity to enlightened minds.

Many of us get too caught-up in the machinations of trying to decide right and wrong, good and bad by using beliefs and values we received from society, our parents, and confirmed by our experiences. We can never know what's right and wrong until we know and understand the beliefs and values we are using to make our decisions.

Whenever we have faith in what others teach us about enlightenment, we most surely will embody their suffering. The path to enlightenment is paved by our Powers of Mind. It's in our minds, not somewhere else.

Powers of Mind is the light within us that never stops shining. It's shining even when we cover it tightly with our toxic beliefs and values.  

Powers of Mind is greater than religion, and it's greater than our definition of spirituality.

We are not born to be powerless. We choose to be powerless.

Today, too many of us are perpetuating toxic beliefs and values. We want these beliefs and values to give us the peace and clarity they don't have to give. This world can give us only what it has to give. We must give ourselves the power that the world cannot give us.

Some of us understand the origins of our beliefs. We understand, at least intellectually, that they come from society, parents, and experience. However, it's difficult for us to accept the existence of something -- Powers of Mind -- that's greater than what we already believe about ourselves.,

We are not born to be powerless. We choose to be powerless.

Those who are willing to accept the origins of our beliefs, must also be willing to lose them and redefine ourselves with our Powers of Mind.

Powers of Mind is our birthright. It is the light we need to guide us to enlightenment.
