Last weekend I watched a 1997 film called Deja Vu. This was not the action film with Denzel Washington, nor one of the other similarly titled movies. This Deja Vu was directed by Henry Jaglom and it is a real gem.

Very briefly, the storyline involves two people, one married and one about to get married, who meet by chance and are instantly attracted to each other on an extremely deep level. Without giving away too much here, the movie explores the nature of the ‘commitments’ we make in life, what we are committing to,  and the ‘choice points’ where we have an opportunity to re-evaluate those choices and possibly change our life direction.

I’m sure that the film is available for rental in many video stores that have a ’spiritual film section’. I do know the film is also available on Amazon, and many of the other movie clubs, such as Netflix.

This movie was a joy to watch, and I highly recommend it to you.

Love and Blessings,

The other day I was led to Zoë Westhof’s website. Zoë is a writer living in Thailand. Part of her passion is supporting other writers, artists, and creatives through her blog.

Among her offerings is a lovely free 30-page booklet called “How to Make Your Own Creative Mini-Retreat”.

You don’t need to consider yourself a creative at all to benefit from this great resource. No matter what you do in life, I recommend this resource to give yourself a soothing break and more personal nourishment in your life. Something we all need more of at this time.

Love and Blessings,

In recent weeks I have been drawn to the work of Burt Harding, in Vancouver BC, who I consider to be one of the most down to earth and clearly understandable teachers of non-dualistic awareness.

If you are clueless as to meaning of non-dualistic awareness, as I myself was, here is my rather simple (and perhaps simplistic) definition of Nonduality. It is the state or condition of not being separate and distinct even if appearing to be so. It is the condition which allows us to say that there is no true separation between ourselves and anyone else or anything else in the world, for instance. When we say things like “We are all one,” or “God is in all things,” we are asserting that the presence we call ‘reality’ is a nonduality.

Why is this even important? Because, as a culture, most of the world looks at life from a perspective of separateness, and most of us believe that happiness and fulfillment are totally dependent on outside things, events, and people. None of that is the truth. Consequently there is great unhappiness in our lives and the lives of those around us. Much of my emotional healing work with my clients involves helping them to release and heal the dualistic limiting beliefs that were inherited in childhood.

The more that we accept our connection to God, to each other, and to All of Life, the more our lives begin to come into true alignment with who we really are.

If you would like to see and hear a free 10 minute video portion of one of Burt Harding’s Satsangs (spiritual talks), visit YouTube site by clicking on “Living The Obvious”

Once you are at YouTube there are also many other talks of his that you can watch at no cost.

If you then wish to listen to full length audio MP3’s, on specific subjects,  you can purchase and download them at Know Yourself. The cost is approximately $7 per one-hour recording. I particularly recommend his talks on “Listening with Heart” and “The Secret to Clear Seeing”, but follow your own intuition and you can’t go wrong.

Many Blessings,

Recently I facilitated one of my most timely and relevant healing audio experiences. There were 200 people registered for this event, and over 100 people on the live call. Now, as promised, the MP3 Audio is available to download for only $9.95. Once you download the audio, it is yours to play on your computer anytime you wish, or you may copy it to a CD, or you may download it onto any MP3 player (like an I-Pod).

Healing High Anxiety: Moving Into Alignment with your Highest Self. MP3 audio available for instant download.

Cost: $9.95

Here is what one person wrote me afterward:

“Beloved Richard, Thank you, thank you, thank you. The call was wonderful, as I knew it would be. And you did hit on exactly what I needed help with … I’m looking forward to the mp3, to run thru the process again.”

Mary in NJ

Whether you were on the original call, or you are just hearing about it now, the advantage of having this audio is that you can re-experience the healing session whenever you wish, and you can use it to release any anxiety or to manifest any new reality, now and in the future. It is a wonderful, inexpensive, and powerful healing resource.

Class Description:

If you read or listen to the media, you cannot avoid the increasing energy of fear and anxiety that is being promoted on the planet. We are experiencing a troubled economy, turbulence in our personal finances, and our relationships are being shaken up in many areas.

This group session is a totally experiential process for your healing and transformation. All you need to do in order to benefit fully is simply listen and follow along as I guide the group through several different processes. The result for you will be a much better understanding of the events impacting your personal life, and more importantly, at the conclusion of the call you will have released and healed much of the turbulence you may now be feeling.

We are indeed going through a time of great change and restructuring on the planet right now. We are seeing this playing out all around us and in our personal situations. In truth, we are moving out of an old paradigm of illusion, separation and control, and we are moving into a new paradigm of personal responsibility, higher consciousness, connectedness, and trust. This is the beginning of a wonderful ascension.

It is all good. The challenge for us is that we have no real understanding of what is happening nor what we need to do in our lives to come fully into alignment with this emerging paradigm. This experiential session will help greatly with better understanding what is happening, while we energetically release the fears and anxiety, and then begin to magnetize into our lives all the good that is available to us. The result will be a much greater sense of peace, safety, and well-being, and an increased ability to make the changes in our lives that we know we need to make.

This is the first live group healing call I have offered in 2009 and I have facilitated this session because I’m called to be of service. It is your opportunity to receive a session of deep healing release, and a magnetizing of all the good that is available to us.

Here is another comment received:

“Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your gift of healing yesterday. I definitely will purchase the recording.” Tina in Massachusetts

Everyone listening will be guided though this healing work simultaneously. Bring your personal challenges to the call and release the underlying cause that has seemingly kept you from making needed changes in your life.

The healing session will close with a special group magnetizing and manifesting process, to create exactly what you want in your life to replace what has just been released.

In addition to the above, at the beginning of the session there is a spontaneous short message my Guides and my Higher Self.

Pre-class instructions are included with the download and you will have everything you need to receive the full benefits of this experience.

Please pass this information on to anyone you feel might benefit.

I look forward to sharing this healing work with you soon.

A third comment after the call:

“Thank you very much for the deep understanding and healing I received on your call last Saturday. I felt safe, loved, in alignment, and in great peace. I am still experiencing a profound state of gratitude, and joy. Thank you again,”

Tara A.

Many Blessings,

I am now combining my newsletter subscriber list and my blog subscriber list into a single list.

In order to accomplish this I must add all the present blog subscribers (YOU) to the newsletter subscriber list through my hosting company, aWeber. According to aWeber’s anti-spam policy, if you are not already on the newsletter list, you will receive an email within the next 24-48 hours asking you to confirm that you want to be on this list. If you DO receive such an email, in order to remain a subscriber of mine, you MUST confirm by clicking on the simple link in their email.

I’m sorry for this inconvenience, but I have no way to bypass their requirement that you re-confirm.

If, however, you do not receive such an email in 24-48 hours, it means that you are already on both lists and there is absolutely nothing you need to do. You will continue to receive my new publication as usual.

Thanks so much for your help and understanding.

Many Blessings,

Richard

Firstly some housekeeping: I’ve recently returned to live in Ashland, OR where I had previously lived for six years. All of my new contact info is on my website but I’ll repeat here that my new telephone number is (541) 552-1080. Although almost all of my Mentoring and Healing work is by telephone, if you are located anywhere near southern Oregon I am also available to work with you in person here in Ashland. Just call me or write me through the contact form. I will respond to you quickly.

As part of my own daily personal expansion, I am working with a ten-week program called “The Presence Process”.

I thought you might be interested in what the author shares as his “New Agreement With The Universe”. The following excerpt comes from page 59 of Michael Brown’s companion e-Book called “The Art of Integration”:

“As dredging up the past lost its glamour I instead began to focus on my present circumstances by constructing a new agreement with the universe about the purpose of my life experience, one that would serve only to awaken and set me free in each moment.

My new agreement with the universe about my life experiences is as follows:

Without exception there are no accidents in my life. I therefore remove the words coincidence, luck and chance from my vocabulary. Nothing happens to me by chance and nothing ever happens late or early. In other words, nothing just happens. In this new agreement with the universe every experience, be it physical, mental or emotional, is deliberate and has purpose and therefore meaning. This includes all encounters I have with nature, be it with plants, birds, bugs and even weather conditions. This also includes all encounters I have with technology, be it the performance of my computer, the remote control for the gate, the light bulb or the telephone. This also includes all people I encounter. There is no such thing as a chance meeting in my new agreement with the universe. To underline all this my agreement with the universe states that every experience I have is in my best interest and comes to assist me in my growth as a spiritual being and as an opportunity to release myself from the illusions of the past. Every experience I have is therefore an invitation extended to me by the universe to come into the present moment.

This agreement with the universe is not selective; it is inclusive. It is not suspended just because I am tired and irritable, or because it is a Sunday or my day off. No event or experience is excluded from this new agreement. I cannot choose therefore to be selective about what is and what is not a valid growth experience. Based on this agreement with the universe my entire life now becomes a valid growth experience. Just because I do not enjoy the experience does not make it invalid. In fact, it is most likely more valid if it rubs me up the wrong way. If I am being selective in what is a valid experience it is because I am not yet ready to deal with the information that I am receiving or because I simply don’t want to know. Or, because in that moment I am too unconscious to even perceive my experiences in this way. In fact a key to knowing whether I am in the present or in the past is whether or not I am conscious of this new agreement with the universe. In the past I have no agreement with anything and so when my awareness wanders into this illusionary place called ‘the past’, or even ‘the future’, my life appears haphazard, disconnected, meaningless and chaotic. But the fact remains that according to my new agreement with the universe everything that happens in my life is relevant. Everything is God attempting to break through my misguided interpretations and into my conscious awareness.

This new agreement with the universe enables me to take my first step into the arena of ‘the free’. Freedom is responsibility. In other words, freedom is based on my ability to respond to whatever is happening to me in any given moment. If I am reacting I am choosing to be in the past, I am choosing to behave as if I have no agreement with the universe regarding my life experiences. It is only when I am in victim or victor mode that I am reacting to the universe. When I am reacting I am not free because a reaction is the act of repeating an old behavior pattern, a behavior pattern that is predictable and is triggered by the memory of a past experience. However, when I am embracing vehicle consciousness I am consciously responding to whatever is happening in each moment. By responding I am growing. By responding I am free.”

=================================================================

4. FEATURE ARTICLE: UNLOCKING THE POWERFUL SECRET MESSAGE
HIDDEN IN THE SCIENCE OF GETTING RICH

“At Paris, just after dark one gusty evening in the autumn of
18–, I was enjoying the twofold luxury of meditation and a
meerschaum, in company with my friend, C. Auguste Dupin, in his
little back library, or book-closet, au troisieme, No. 33 Rue
Dunot, Faubourg St. Germain …”

So begins one of the most famous of all American short stories,
“The Purloined Letter,” penned in 1844 by the celebrated writer
Edgar Allen Poe.

The story tells the tale of a famous woman who is being
blackmailed by a man who has stolen from her a letter containing
extremely damaging information. After the police have searched
the thief’s lodgings thoroughly, looking into every possible
crack and crevice where the letter may have been concealed,
they’re at a loss because they KNOW the letter is there, yet they
can’t find it, no matter how hard they look.

Thoroughly bewildered and being pressured to retrieve the
incriminating sheet of paper quickly, the police prefect pays a
visit to Monsieur Dupin, a famous private detective:

“The fact is, we have all been a good deal puzzled because the
affair is so simple, and yet baffles us altogether.”

“Perhaps it is the very simplicity of the thing which puts you at
fault,” said my friend.

“What nonsense you do talk!” replied the Prefect, laughing
heartily.

“Perhaps the mystery is a little too plain,” said Dupin.

“Oh, good heavens! who ever heard of such an idea?”

“A little too self-evident.”

“Ha! ha! ha! — ha! ha! ha! — ho! ho! ho!” roared our visitor,
profoundly amused, “oh, Dupin, you will be the death of me yet!”

While the Prefect laughs and dismisses the idea that the letter
could be hidden right under his nose, that, in fact, turns out to
be exactly the case. The famous Detective Dupin triumphs yet
again and steals back the purloined letter which the thief has
“hidden in plain sight” by leaving it right out in the open.

Now my question to you — in light of deepening our understanding
of The Science of Getting Rich — is this:

Are you Detective Dupin or the police prefect?

In other words, are you focusing so intently on what may APPEAR
to be the message of the book or what you expect it to say that
you miss out entirely on what just may be the REAL long-lost
secret of prosperity in ALL its forms, financial and otherwise?

Or, like our hero Dupin, have you spotted the “hidden”
information and had it jump right off the page and into your more
and more delightful life?

Well, if you’re still a bit puzzled — or even completely baffled
– hang on, because we’re about to walk right through the clues
’til you see it!

In any how-to manual, of course, you always find lists of do’s
and don’ts to follow to achieve the desired results. And Mr.
Wattles’ book is no different in that regard.

So let’s take a look at a few of his prescriptions and see what
ONE THING they ALL have in common!

Mr. Wattles tells us that to practice The Science of Getting Rich
successfully we need to …

* Understand that there is no limit to abundance.

* Accept that we are worthy and that our true desires are, too.

* Abandon competitive thought.

* Don’t worry that someone else could beat you to all the good
stuff.

* Avoid unethical practices in business and elsewhere.

* Look for ways to add value in all you do.

* Spend as much time as possible contemplating your desires: See
what you want as if it is already a done deal — imagine it
clearly, “bringing out all its delightful details.”

* And take that even further: “See yourself owning and using
them. Make use of them in your imagination … In the mental
realm, enter at once into full enjoyment of the things you want.”

* Notice when your thoughts turn to worry, doubt, and fear so
that you can choose other thoughts that feel good and lead you
back to positive energy.

* Marinate yourself in gratitude! (There’s a whole chapter and
more on this one aspect. That’s a BIG clue!)

* Be careful what thoughts you choose to dwell on: “Things are
not brought into being by thinking about their opposites.”

* Avoid dwelling on or talking about your own troubles at all.
The same is true for “horrible conditions” in certain places or
for groups of people. Never speak in a discouraged or
discouraging way.

* “Give no anxious thought to possible disasters, obstacles,
panics, or unfavorable combinations of circumstances.”

* Don’t rush, overwork, or waste time trying to figure out some
“strange, unusual, or remarkable action to perform as a first
step toward getting rich.” Just do what you normally do but with
a new attitude, point of view, mindset.

* Not sure what action to take? Then you’re not ready to act yet.
Go to gratitude, contemplate the vision of what you want, don’t
rush and get yourself all anxious and uptight.

* Use your will power only to keep your mind off what you don’t
want and focused on what you DO want to attract and create in
your life.

Have you spotted a common thread yet?

Here’s another clue: Pick one of the recommendations above (and
this is just a representative sampling) and imagine yourself
doing what Mr. Wattles recommends.

Now … how does doing that cause you to feel?

If you’ve seen the answer, congratulations! If you haven’t quite
gotten it yet, that’s fine, too. We’ll take it a step further.

Let’s pick the first one on the list. What feels better to you –
believing that abundance is unlimited or believing that if one
person has more, someone else must go without?

Or jump down the list to “Marinate yourself in gratitude.” What
feels better to you — looking around and seeing so much to
appreciate and be grateful for? Or the opposite?

Do that with the whole list up there. Better yet, get out your
copy of the book and reread it, looking at every bit of advice
Mr. Wattles gives and noticing what is likely to be the IMMEDIATE
RESULT in your own mental and emotional state.

My friend, when you really “get” this at a deep level, you will
have the key that unlocks it ALL!

The real secret of practicing The Science of
Getting Rich is to focus ONLY on what makes
you FEEL GOOD.

Your own JOY is the secret key to all
abundance!

You are constantly impressing your mental images on the Formless,
constantly sending out a signal, constantly asking for whatever
it is you are focusing on to be delivered to you.

Not just the things you want, but everything you give your focus,
faith, and feeling to. And that delivery is ALWAYS completed.

(Now, not every little thought that comes flitting through your
mind is going to manifest — just the ones you dwell on. And
which ones are those? The ones you feel any emotion about.)

So it’s ESSENTIAL for you to feel as good as
you can, as much of the time as you can.

My friend, this is great news!

It simply does NOT feel good to worry, to rush, to give less than
your best, to get into competitive mind, to blame or judge or
criticize, to soak up all the bad news in the world, to rant
about politics, to tell everyone all your troubles, to bitch and
moan about everything you don’t like, and on and on.

But it feels GREAT to turn on your powerful imagination and
practice being, doing, and having all you desire — to really get
into it until it feels real to you.

Here’s an example. One Sunday afternoon I was lying in a hammock
in a friend’s backyard, thinking about the new home I wanted in a
new location on the other side of the country. I closed my eyes
and imagined my hammock was at the end of the dock out behind my
new house and my cruising sailboat was tied up right beside me.

As I lay there in the sunshine, envisioning all the details of my
surroundings, I imagined I could smell the salt water and hear
the docklines creaking a bit. I imagined another friend coming
down from the house suggesting we go for a sail and have dinner
at a nice restaurant on the other side of the water, and so we
did …

A while later the back door opened and my friend came out and
said, “How long have you been out here?” And when I checked I was
astonished to find out I’d been “daydreaming” for nearly two
hours!

I had gotten so delightfully absorbed in
creating and contemplating my “clear mental
image” (CMI) that I’d lost all track of time.

And the best part was that I felt incredible! You know that
little thrill you get when something wonderful happens — a
delicious physical sensation you feel sort of all over, and it
can sometimes even make you almost shiver as you grin or laugh
right out loud?

Well, I had it big time — and that’s EXACTLY how I knew that the
reality of my CMI was on the way!

Exactly how and when delivery takes place — that part’s not up
to me. That’s up to the Formless. My part is just to get crystal
clear on the desire and all its “bright promise.” When I do that
– when YOU do that! — it feels fantastic.

So, my friend, that’s the secret! And your part of the process is
simply to envision whatever it is you desire to be, do, or have,
and then PLAY with that vision until you feel great. Do it often,
until (as Mr. Wattles notes) all you have to do is think of your
desire and the whole big picture jumps into your mind and pastes
a big happy grin on your face.

All the rest — all the heavy lifting, all the “figuring out,”
all the work — is left to the Formless, the Universe, the
Supreme Mind, God.

Your part is just to be and feel the joy of it until INSPIRED
action just arises naturally.

ONE MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR YOU

Now, whatever it is that YOU desire to be, do, or have, ask
yourself this: WHY do you want it?

When you get right down to it, you want it because you think it
will feel good in one way or another, right?

Hmm.

So … in order to get what you desire so that you will feel
good, you first need to …?

Yeah! You got it!

Feels pretty good, doesn’t it? ;-D

LISTEN UP!

“”Ever since I had the [SOGR] audiobook, I have been listening to
it in the car, on public transport, or walking from place to
place, and it has helped to reinforce many concepts.

“All in all, an hour a day of listening to Rebecca’s presentation
for 250 working days a year is worth 250 hours of instruction and
self learning and that without setting aside any special hours
for that, only travelling time!

“And if you are like me, primarily learning using auditory
senses, that’s double the benefits!”

— KEVIN YEO in Singapore

*****

I know EXACTLY what you mean by reinforcement, Kevin. When I
first got the book — TEN years ago now, wow! — I read it more
than 150 times before I stopped counting. I was just so
determined to really “get” the message.

(And apparently I was something of a slow learner, too, since it
never occurred to me during all those readings to RECORD it so I
could LISTEN. It took a LOT of SOGR fans asking for the audio
before I got THAT message!) ;-D

I’m so glad the audiobook is paying off for you!

Now, my friend, get your own SCIENCE OF GETTING RICH AUDIOBOOK –
on two CDs or audiocassettes — at:

Order online, by fax, or with the “print and mail” form you’ll

6. WRAP-UP: MORE VIDEOS!

Back at the beginning of March I first watched an AMAZING
18-minute online video of a talk given by brain scientist DR.
JILL BOLTE TAYLOR.

Since then I’ve watched it SIXTEEN more times — with friends,
family, by myself.

Really.

It’s THAT good!

I don’t want to tell you too much about it, because if you
haven’t yet seen it I wouldn’t want to spoil the impact — and it
packs a TON of impact, especially for those of us who — thanks
to Wally and SOGR — have become fascinated by how our minds
(and brains) work.

And even more fascinated by who and what we really ARE.

Apparently a lot of other people have found Dr. Jill’s talk
mind-blowing (so to speak), too: Less than three months after the
video of her talk was posted on the internet, she was featured on
TIME Magazine’s cover as one of the year’s “100 Most Influential
People.”

Then, Oprah — following up on the enormous success of the
ground-breaking, worldwide live 10-week webcast series with
Eckhart Tolle (A NEW EARTH) — interviewed Jill for her new “Soul
Series.” This four-part interview expands on the original talk
and is even more enlightening.

(I personally LOVE Part 3 because Dr.
Jill’s unstoppable enthusiasm for her
subject is so contagious.)

So, if you’d care to join me, go grab some popcorn and then head
on over to these websites to catch up on any of the videos you
haven’t seen yet. Once you hear what Dr. Jill has to say I know
you’ll agree that it’s WONDERFUL that so many people are taking
her message to heart!

You’ll find the original talk, “My Stroke of Insight,” here:

–> http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/229

And Oprah’s interview series is here:

–> http://www2.oprah.com/spiritself/oss/ss_oss_archive.jhtml

OK, my friend, I’m off to make it EIGHTEEN viewings of the
original. Hope to “see” you over there! (And if you’re bringing
popcorn, I like LOTS of butter!) ;-D

‘Til next time …

Many blessings, and of course –
EXPECT Success!

Rebecca

P.S. Did you participate in the A NEW EARTH webcast series? I
didn’t miss a single one. There was just something so cool about
taking part in that with millions of people all over the planet.
Lots of good food for thought in there for SOGR readers, too.

And it’s not too late. You’ll find the whole series archived
(watch online or download) here:
