    Becoming a GoOD Receiver #GMweekends

    That same Awareness in which the body begins to sway, is the same Awareness that appears as answered prayers. It's both the prayer and the answer.

    Today's Quotes:
    "No prayer is complete without presence."
    -Rumi
    "By sincere prayer you put yourself in a receptive mood. You become good receiver. You tune your heart radio. Prayer is a form of tuning. Once you tune your heart through prayer, you get all the cosmic things Whatever you pray for, you get. Pray for peace, you are tuning you radio to the peace station. Pray for beauty, you tune your radio to the beauty station.
    More things are wrought by prayer than the world dreams of: We don" know the power of prayers. Don't we say, "You want it, you got it!" It is literally true; if you really want it sincerely, you get it.  Real want, sincere want, honest want is prayer. Through that sincere prayer, you tune your heart to God."
    -Swami Satchidananda
    "Everything starts with Love, remember; Love is the ultimate law. Then prayer, mercy, grace, follow of their own accord."
    -Osho
    "Move like you know you're being taken care of."

    Say to God, "I Am Listening", and watch what happens! 💥❤️‍🔥

    Say to God, "I Am Listening", and watch what happens! 💥❤️‍🔥

    Your goal is to continue to be what you are, 
    even when the weight of that body,
    the presence of that body,
    the experience of that body,
    and its mind,
    is (t)here.
    Instead of being the body,
    you simply just become aware of the body,
    like you're the light shining on the body,
    the spotlight on that body. 
    You are this Light, 
    that hears. 
    "You have no idea how powerful awareness is until you consistently hold it on yourself."

    "Fear comes from the heart. If ever you feel overcome by dread of some illness or accident, you should inhale and exhale deeply, slowly and rhythmically several times, relaxing with each exhalation. This helps the circulation to become normal. If your heart is truly quiet you cannot feel fear at all." - Yogananda

    Your mind is not the Healer, Christ is.

    Your mind is not the Healer, Christ is.

    Only the fullness of the Christ is here. 
    And every time you close your eyes,
    you're saying, like Jesus did, 
    "Come out, 
    rise up...",
    and everything that was dead in your life, will.

    "Some people think when you say, "God within" that you are referring to "the Mind and how to use it", but that isn't it either." - Joel Goldsmith 
    "Peace. Peace. "My Peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth." "My peace. The Peace of Christ. And, now, I am going to tell you a secret: More healings have taken place through absolute silence than ever have taken place through all of the arguments a metaphysician could think up in the whole history of the world. If you want, really and truly, to know what healing is, all right! When you are called upon for help, sit down and get at peace. Think no thought. Just sit there and wait, wait. Be patient and wait for the Peace of the Christ to descend upon you. And, in that point or place in consciousness where one would be ready for the Spiritual Answer - the Spiritual Consciousness - to unfold, we, here, are in a different position than we were when we were functioning with treatments. You see, we have come to such a place in consciousness, due to all we have been through these many years, that we are ready for the next "Higher Step." Even if mental argument were necessary to us in the earlier days of our work, even if affirmation and denial were necessary then, they are not so now. We can leave those forms alone.
    Learn to sit down, relax. Whether the case is sin, disease, death or unemployment - and, whether or not it is serious - sit down and relax. Do not try to "handle" it.
    Do not try to "work" on it. Do not try to "treat" it.
    Rather, try to sit back. And, in silence, create a kind of vacuum for God - the Christ- to rush in. Sit down and relinquish your thought that the human mind is a healer.
    Christ is the Healer. I, The Substance of the whole work we are doing, is this: God Is." - Joel Goldsmith 
    "Sometimes God lets you hit rock bottom so that you realize that
    God is the rock at the bottom." - @living.chrisitnan 
    "One who is not amazed by the magnificence of this creation, his eves are not yet opened. Once your eyes are opened, they close and this is meditation. (Laughter)
    Tell me, what is not a mystery in this creation?
    Birth is a mystery; death is a mystery. And life is certainly a greater mystery, isn't it?" - Ravi Shankar

    The Battle's Not Yours

    The Battle's Not Yours

    In Luke (9:23), Jesus says, " If any of you want to be my followers, you must forget about yourself. You must take up your cross every day and follow me." 
    When you remember Love, 
    yourself is forgotten. 
    For that instant, 
    you are beyond the body, 
    beyond the story, 
    beyond the world, 
    being Love. 
    No narration, 
    no history,
    no future,
    no language,
    nothing.
    See how much freer you are when you are no thing?
    When you're no one?
    We're all trying to be somebody.
    Trying to make a name,
    when the only way to make a name is to take His. 
    To forget yourself,
    to become nothing.
    Rumi says, "then He makes you everything."

    And all I could say was, 'Oh my God. It's You. You're here!'

    And all I could say was, 'Oh my God. It's You. You're here!'

    "It was astonishing when I first felt His presence.
    It was a little after midnight.
    The room became so still, and so quiet.
    And so peaceful and calm.
    Like when it snows.
    But warm.
    And then...an undeniable Presence.
    And all I could say was,
    "Oh my God. It's You. You're here!
    You're really here!"
    And I cried the good cry and slept the good sleep,
    with the Master sitting right there.
    I'll never forget that day.
    I pray a day like that for every Seeker."- @that_baltimore_girl replying to this IG post on my feed
    *******************
    The time has come for God to give you the fruit of your practice, 
    of your devotion,
    of your love,
    of your patience.
    Your faith.
    This felt-faith. 
    But you have ears that can hear,
    and eyes that can see This. 
    You're looking at the past. 
    Don't be fooled by appearances. 
    Look past that to This. 
    Don't judge by what you think you know, 
    by what you think is coming. 
    You don't know.
    You just keep coming back to the Silence.
    You keep stopping,
    because in that stopping (in that stilling of the mind) things are changing.
    And the more you stop,
    the more things change,
    to reflect how you're feeling, 
    how you're being.

    The fragrance is the Consciousness and the flower is in the name. Even if you do not understand the name, the fragrance comes through. Each human can smell it and he can tell even ithe is English, French or Indian. Everyone knows. There is no need to speak about it." -Sri Nirmala Devi Mataji

    I Am Immersed in the Flame of Love

    I Am Immersed in the Flame of Love

    Lovingly affirm:
    "I am immersed in the flame-
    The flame of time,
    The flame of love,
    The flame of life.
    The universal fire flows through me."*
    The Living God is appearing as you and every seeming thing. 
    I feel Light(er) when you get this. 
    And you're getting this. 
    I Love you, 
    nik
    "Everything exposed to the light itself becomes light" (Ephesians 5:13). In prayer, we merely keep returning the divine gaze and we become its reflection, almost in spite of ourselves (2 Corinthians 3:18). The word prayer has often been trivialized by making it into a way of getting what we want. But I use prayer as the umbrella word for any interior journeys or practices that allow us to experience faith, hope, and love within ourselves. It is not a technique for getting things, a pious exercise that somehow makes God happy, or a requirement for entry into heaven. It is much more like practicing heaven now.
    +Adapted from The Naked Now: Learning to See
    as the Mystics See, pp. 22-23.
    "Live for a few days in the meditation,
    "I am immersed in the flame-The flame of time, The flame of love, The flame of life.
    The universal fire flows through me."
    Step into that fire. wholeheartedly,
    Starting with the big toe,
    Then, surrendering everywhere.
    Only the not-self,
    Which doesn't exist anyway,
    Burns away.
    Attend to this continually And awaken into tranquility.
    Your essence is renewed in the flame, For it is flame and knows itself as flame Since the first heartbeat of creation.
    Imagine the entire world consumed by flame.
    Stay steady, do not waver,
    As fire transmutes form into light.
    The soul reveals itself."
    To itself as Radiance.- the Radiance Sutras

CAlicea1122 ,

Your podcast is an experience!!

WOW I found you through Sister Cody and since listening to your podcast I have found that through your messages I have found my way back home to myself. I was looking for home outside of myself and you made me realize I was home the whole time. There is no place to go out to find it’s all here within me ALL OF IT!! Thank you Nikki for sharing your gifts with the world and allowing God to speak through you. I have saved your episodes and go back to them multiple times a day as they pull me back to my truth. I put my noise canceling headphones on and listen to your words as they integrate with my soul and WOW what an experience!! 🙏🏼💕
