    The Power of Autosuggestion

    Listen to episode 1161 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Autosuggestion & Self-Mastery. Adapted from the book Self-Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion by Emile Coué. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In order to understand properly the phenomena of suggestion, or to speak more correctly of autosuggestion, it is necessary to know that two absolutely distinct selves exist within us. Both are intelligent, but while one is conscious, the other is unconscious. For this reason the existence of the latter generally escapes notice. It is however easy to prove its existence if one merely takes the trouble to examine certain phenomena and to reflect a few moments upon them. Let us take for instance the following examples: ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    The Eternal Nature of the Soul

    Listen to episode 1160 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Eternal Nature of the Soul. Edited and adapted from “Does the Soul Exist After Death?” by Swami Abhedananda. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the most poetical of the Upanishads begins with this inquiry: "There is this doubt: when a person dies, some say that they are gone forever, that they do not exist, while others hold that they still live; which of these is true?"  Various answers have been given to this question. Metaphysics, philosophy, science, and religion have tried to solve this problem. At the same time, attempts also have been made to suppress this question and prevent inquiry as to whether or not we exist after death. Hundreds of thinkers have brought forward all sorts of arguments to do away with questions bearing upon this momentous subject.  ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Harmony is the Key to Success

    Listen to episode 1159 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Harmony is the Key Success. Edited and adapted from Success Through Thought Habit by Benjamin Johnson. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Success means different things to everyone. But they all must share something in common. Philosophers, poets, and religious seekers have for ages struggled to discover that mysterious something that will make the problem of living a simpler and more enjoyable process. And, ultimately, they have all arrived at the same conclusion: that the one thing necessary to the living of a perfect life is the possession of the quality familiar to many but really known to few — it’s called Harmony.  ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    How to Build the Perfect Personality

    Listen to episode 1158 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Improve Your Personality. Edited and adapted from Laugh and Live by Douglas Fairbanks. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A healthy and robust personality is the fulfillment of self-development — physically, mentally, and spiritually. But all robust personalities are not healthy, for it often shows in the faces of those who are selfish at heart. Therefore, all personality is not for the good of the world. It is only of the healthy and generous kind that we speak. And to those who possess it, the goal is divine. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

At first he served the mayor of his town, until he discovered that the mayor was under a duke who was far more powerful than he. Thereupon he left the mayor to serve the duke, until he found that the latter had to obey one greater than any duke, the emperor. Then he transferred his allegiance to the emperor, whom he served until one day he heard the emperor say that he was afraid of the devil. "What! you afraid of the devil!" cried the giant. "Is the emperor afraid of anything? Is there anyone stronger than the emperor? If so, I will serve him." Leaving the emperor, he hunted for the devil, whom he found and served. But he soon learned that the devil was afraid of someone more powerful than himself, the Christ. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Why the Older Should be Happier

    Listen to episode 1157 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Benefits of Growing Older. Edited and adapted from Essays of an Optimist by John William Kaye. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the great advantages of age is that we are not wont to disturb ourselves by doing things that we do not like, simply for the look of the thing. There is absolute misery in pretentiousness of all kinds, and youth is infinitely more pretentious than age. There are some people who never outlive their vanity; but, as a general rule, it may be maintained that the longer we live, the less we care what others think of us, and the less we strive after effect.  ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Inspiration from Lao Tzu | Wisdom of the Tao Te Ching

    Listen to episode 1156 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Tao Te Ching. Edited and adapted from Dwight Goddard’s translation of the Lao Tzu’s classic book Tao Te Ching. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The Tao that can be understood cannot be the primal, or cosmic, Tao, just as an idea that can be expressed in words cannot be the infinite idea. And yet this ineffable Tao is the source of all spirit and matter, and being expressed is the mother of all created things. Therefore not to desire the things of sense is to know the freedom of spirituality; and to desire is to learn the limitation of matter. These two things, spirit and matter, so different in nature, have the same origin. This unity of origin is the mystery of mysteries, and it is the gateway to spirituality. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
