We said when we started this Daily Inspiration Letter /  ThePathBack.com project we were going to become the number one spiritual web site in the world.. Well this is our new Daily Inspiration Letter and I hope you like the new design.

We are using a new service to send the Letter out as well. There is a double opt. in requirement which will keep anyone from getting the letter who doesn’t want it.  We have added some things that those of you who have been receiving our Letter for a while will notice as well. New subscribers will be receiving many valuable gifts for subscribing and any of our regular readers who want to get the gift assortment can simplyCLICK HERE and get the “Stuff” tool.

There will be a section in the Letter every day featuring articles about prominent spiritual personality. The mixture will be widely varied, from saints of every religious and spiritual persuasion like Paramahansa Yogananda, and Saint Francis of Assisi to current spiritual teachers like Eckhart Tolley and Dr. Wayne Dyer.

The new article directory will be fully functional by months end with thousands of spiritual articles available.

We will be doing at least one interview per month with someone that our readers will be familiar with and interested in hearing from. These interviews could be in person, in an audio or video format, or by phone sometimes on live teleconference calls.

The balance of today’s Letter is about doing what ever is necessary to get to and stay at number one in what ever you do.

My goal in writing these letters is to help my readers to feel better, be happier, have less stress and understand that it is not as hard to get yourself out of those discouraging frames of mind that you occasionally find yourself in as you have been lead to believe. There are many newsletters out there today and my hope is that this one will truly inspire some if our readers every day. I try and tell a story each day that will raise your spirits and help you to see the world in a better light. Today’s message is one that if you begin to use, will change your life with in days. I hope that you can click on the link below and listen to and read today’s Letter. It is the first in our new format and one that is significant in its content as well. If you can’t listen or read
The Letter NOW, they will all be archived on ThePathBack.com by our delivery system from now on as a part of the service.
This particular topic is discussed in Eckhart Tolle’s compact disk or video
”The Flowering of Human Consciousness” I’ll take a moment and thank Sharon and Peter Kofoed two of our regular readers who donated that particular video to ThePathBack  along with hundreds of other videos, audios and books as a gesture of love just to make me feel better awhile back. I encourage you o listen to that particular audio or video, which ever you can find.

Continued from Daily Inspiration Letter

Our thinking is what creates those things that inhabit our existence. If you allow your thoughts to dwell on negative things it will cause these same things to appear in your life.
It seems that we repeat the same things over and over again. Well it doesn’t just sound that way. It is, in fact that way. There are very few things that need to be said in these areas and even fewer ways to say them.

It is not hearing the same thing over and over on an intellectual level that will get you to react in ways that will save you all of the frustration of repeating the same mistakes over and over. If what you are hearing is truly coming from silence, or the GAP, that point of power that is the present, the energy emitted by their communication, not the words themselves saturate your very being and you begin to recognize that this is, once again, your EGO ”feeding”, for lack of a better word, on the negative. As you, operating from AWARENESS recognize, that it is simply “Feeding Time “for the EGO when these painful things come upon you, the identity will disappear, placing you back in charge. It is the act of recognizing that the same thing is happening over and over again and that you as AWARENESS are only witnessing, or observing it. When you recognize the same thing reoccurring again and again, you begin to realize after awhile that it is not you that is thinking the negative thoughts but your EGO. Remember it is not the words you hear explaining this to you but the place they are coming from. That is the reason that reading this Daily Inspiration Letter every day , or listening to the DR Wayne Dyer PBS Special when ever you can or going to some kind of church every Sunday, are all going to help you move up on the scale of Consciousness, and begin to regain control of your live.

It becomes possible to just notice what is happening as it is happening and nearly automatically, and certainly with a little help from your AWARENESS the negative thinking (or whatever is occulting, sadness, bitterness, jealousy, gilt. Eckhart Tolle calls this your “Pain Body”) will stop. This is not trying to control your EGO. It is just catching it in the act, BUSTING IT, so to speak. The EGO believes it is always right. Trying to convince it that it is wrong will never work. BUSTING IT or showing your EGO that you caught it in the act of doing something wrong will make it stop doing what it was doing at least for a while. 

This is one of those things that takes some work and is not a very easy thing to understand logically. The fact that it is not the words being repeatedly over and over that give you the message, but the PLACE OF SILENCE THAT THEY ARE COMING FROM. Deepak Chopra calls it” The Field of Pure Possibility” Tolle calls it “The NOW” or “Stillness” or “Spaciousness.”  I usually refer to this place as AWARENESS. Wayne Dyer calls it your Source or, most recently, The Tao. What ever name you use it is the same place. Imagine that it is a message coming from GOD. It is not the message or the words that are important. It is the Source from which it comes

This method of noticing that it is “Feeding Time” for the EGO works in every situation. You don’t have to try and change anything, just notice what is happening. “Oh look he’s hungry again.”  Start noticing what is happening and you will find yourself running your life more and more.

We are rapidly moving to the number one spot in spiritual web sites in the entire world. I have to admit that there were times during these last few months that I not only wondered if we would really make it to our goal, but if I would make it at all. NOW (and there is only NOW) I thank God every day that my life has taken this particular course.

Thank you for listening to and reading today’s letter. I hope you enjoy this short video.

Co-Determined

Sept 8, Tue

Sunday Chris and I went to the Self-Realization Fellowship in Encinitas Ca. This is where Paramahansa Yogananda Lived and worked part of the time when he was in the United States in the early part of the 20th. Century. It is a beautiful spot right on the Pacific Ocean just north of San Diego. This last Sunday there was an Open House. Some of the areas that aren't normally accessible to the public were open. I particularly enjoyed going through his living quarters. Especially the study with the ocean view where he wrote much of his signature book Autobiography of a Yogi. I met a devote' of Yogananda's which was the high point of our visit. This fellow had spent some time in India years ago and had met Anandas Myoi MA a famous Saint from India, along with many others yogis and spiritual teachers.  He tunes Steinway pianos in southern California now and had some wonderful stories to share.

When we left The Self-Realization Fellowship Chris and I took Bob Short and his wife Danielle out to dinner at a Mexican Sea Food Restaurant. Bob is my enlightened friend, the one who wrote The Transformation Method Materials that I have often spoken about in the Daily Inspiration Letter. The balance of our evening was spent asking Bob questions.
What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday.

On Monday we spent the afternoon watching "The Secret" Most of our new sales force (now numbering five) had not seen it and we just took the afternoon and played it for the entire Company. I am convinced that it was well worth the time off from work to let these young people experience something they might not otherwise get to experience.

I have gone through several hundred people to get a really good sales force in the past and am going to try a new approach this time. As with every facet of this new business, I am making an effort to look at things from a different point of view.
I would love to be able to develop the current group that we have into our ongoing sales staff.

First you have a thought, if you DECIDE to keep the thought it turns into an idea or a belief. Then you take the action to cause it to happen and begin to do that habitually. Soon you will see your expected result, which will be the same as the original thought.

It appears that if I keep my ATTENTION on my goals that my new little sales force could very well develop into the expected result. That is if they want the same result. You can't control other people. It is not controlling others that I am seeking. We can be self-determined, other determined and co- determined. Most human beings find themselves other determined. That simply means letting others determine what you will be, do, or have in this world. To wind up Co-determined or sharing in the determination as to what you and others will Be, Do, or Have, one must first master being self-determined. These points of view, and that is all they are, can be easily achieved with practice. We can influence how others will react to nearly any situation without being controlling or rendering them other determined. It is a question of helping others to see the benefit in reacting in a certain way to certain things.

A good example of what I am speaking of would be having watched "The Secret" with the entire staff yesterday. Having seen that program will not alter anyone's behavior but might have some effect on their thinking, allowing them to make decisions that will better serve both our little company and their lives in general. Speaking of our lives, what exactly makes up our lives? Those of you who have read the Daily Inspiration letter reasonably regularly know that it is my belief that "Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans." Your life is contained in that 2" Dash between your date of birth and your date of death on your gravestone.

Today I have included the Dash Movie as our little film clip.

Gratitude and Kindness
Out Weight All The Rest
Sept 16, Sunday

If you imagine the picture we typically associate with Justice you will probably see a blindfolded woman holding a   scale. (Justice is blind) With that scale in mind, when trying to become an Enlightened being, if you have a large helping of Gratitude and an equally heaping portion of kindness on your scale you will without question find yourself much further along the path than anyone you encounter without those qualities. Regardless of the virtues they possess kindness and gratitude are the Twin Pillars of spirituality.

Gratitude is being grateful for being alive, for having a place to live, a country like the one we live in to call our home. Having transportation to get around, even if it is a bus. Think of all the millions of people who don't have a way to get from one place to another. The people who can't get simple medical attention because there is no way of getting to where it is offered. Many couldn't get help anyway even if they could get there because there is no way to pay for it.

How many people die every day from starvation in a world where thousands of meals are thrown away everyday because they have passed their expiration date in one-way or the other. Do we give thanks that we are among the lucky individuals that have more than enough or are we complaining because we just can't find anything that we really want to watch on our television this evening with a hundred stations available to us at the flick of a switch. Of course we are watching that television in our warm home with in door plumbing.

How many times do you thank the Universe that you are in that group? It would be just as easy for you to have been born in total and complete poverty with absolutely no chance of ever getting out of it. 

We talked yesterday about goals. When you and I are setting goals they are a little different from the goals set by those people who haven't eaten a good meal in a week. Those people I'm talking about are in every major city in America, not just in Calcutta.
I will now speak a little about kindness. I am not talking about finding a homeless person and offering to give him a room in your house. That would be very kind but not very likely. What I am talking about is being kind to your wife or your boyfriend when having a misunderstanding. Being kind instead of right.

How many times every day do you argue a point with someone just so you can be right when the argument is over. Frequently you are still only right in your own mind because the other person is convinced that you are hallucinating. That other person is more often someone that you say you love. How difficult would it be to just acquiesce and let them be right and in the process be Kind? As often as not the argument was about what color socks you wore to a business meeting two weeks ago last Thursday anyway. Who Cares Be Kind instead of right.

These things are so simple to correct and would change the complexion of society if we all put a little effort into them. We are back to the hundredth monkey story again.

This is not going to be something that the vast majority of the people in the world are going to start doing Gratitude and kindness are not the focus of the vast majority of the population. Like with the monkeys though when the critical mass is reached this too will become the way of the world. (I wouldn't hold my breath)

Think about that. A world where the majority of the people were grateful for what they have and just naturally kind to everyone they encountered. I actually think Nastradamus predicted a world like that and 1000 years of peace. These things are not so hard to do and we can start right now. Maybe you are the Hundredth Monkey.

I have put a link here if for some reason you haven't read the Hundredth Monkey Story
