30+ Awe-inspiring Quotes by Rev. Michael Bernard Freeman

By Sarah Johnson on April 28th, 2013

Be a beneficial presence on the planet. Give your Gifts. Boldly go where no woman or no man has ever gone before.

Authentic gratitude is a way of life. When you wake up in the morning let your first thought be one of thanksgiving that you have another day to walk in the love of God. As you go through your day, see the Giver behind all of the gifts freely being given to you.

Today give up false mental attachments and beliefs! Free yourself from the delusion that anything external can fulfill the hunger of your soul for God-Consciousness.

Today, continue to nourish your dreams. Hold fast to your vision and do something every day to bring it into manifestation. Everything is possible in God, because God is the infinite Possibility within everything. Know that you are God’s Beloved in whom God is pleased. Never giving up on yourself is what it takes to be your own hero.
So as you are beginning your day anchor yourself in the truth. Know that all is well. Extend this to your friends, colleagues and all that you meet. That life is for YOU! It is never against you.

Today refuse to see yourself as a recipient of negative vibrations or as a victim of subtle or gross influence around you. Practice broadcasting the high vibrations of your inner radiance remembering all the while that the place upon which you stand is holy simply because you are standing there.

Your good is happening right now, even as you accept this statement of truth.
When we radiate the warmth of our love-energy, our compassion-energy on the planet, we shine the qualities of our Source!

Trust, practice, and then release yourself into the goodness of Existence and your life will prove that what you believe, you see.

Your life began in the heart & mind of the Infinite. Mentally relive the days when as a child you ran free, when there were infinite possibilities of what you could feel, accomplish, and see in the world. Allow for the energy of your remembered freedom to thunder through you, and you will free your self from the false obstacles your adult.

Silently repeat to yourself: I forgive myself for any ways in which I knowingly or unknowingly caused hurt or harm to any living being or creature. I forgive all who have ever hurt or harmed me. Everything between us is now cleared up.
Integrity is about being integrated with the spiritual values of the Universe. It is also about being happy, because happiness and joy mean that you’re coming into integrity with your soul.

If you are not thinking for yourself, someone else is thinking for you. Choose for yourself and become free from society’s undertow. The Universe is ready to support you.

If you are not consciously directing your life, you will lose your footing and circumstances will decide for you.

There’s nothing wrong with us. There’s nothing missing in us. Everything is for us and there is nothing against us. Let us remember this together.

Your technology is the inner practice of meditation, which will stimulate the link between your brain and ignite your innate desire to know your True Self. Trust yourself in a deeper way & reap the rewards!

This is our moment. This is our destiny. It’s a good destiny

It’s a wonderful destiny! God made no mistakes when God wrote the beautiful, unfolding pattern of delight as You!

The You of you is not you of your credentials. If, however, you are stuck in your personal history, you may become a “credential collector” – believing that you are defined by your business cards and degrees. Instead, attune yourself to the inner voice whispering, “Wake up! It’s time to be free and step into your true identity as an awakened being.”

When a caterpillar spins its cocoon, it goes through a transformative process and then emerges as a butterfly. Similarly, when we go through a practice of meditation and prayer, we loosen our egoic grip on a sense of self that is separate from the Whole and become vehicles of the emergent evolutionary paradigm of love, peace , compassion, wisdom, harmony and oneness that seeks expression on the planet.

Gratitude places you in the energy field of plentitude. Glow with gratitude and see how awe and joy will make their home in you.

Do you press the “pause” button – the “until” button in life by saying “I can’t be happy until…”? Press the “play” button and rejoice in the nowness of the moment.

When we shift from negatively complaining to positively affirming, conditions change. Then complaining is no longer the operative law in our life-freedom is.

Stop looking outside for help. You’re sourced and fueled and funded by a renewable resource, which is within you. It never runs out. It is your Essence. It’s your life.

The answer to any challenge you are having has nothing to do with God’s willingness to help. It has to do with your acceptance of how the Infinite is already active within you, how it has already placed within you all that you need to solve and dissolve inner conflict through conscious communion with the Self.

When you make genuine contact with your inner Spirit, there is an inner joy, an inner peace, that takes over.

Stop the mental chatter about what’s wrong and what’s not complete. There is a presence of Love that is seeking to express itself through you.

When you see the world that God sees, you see a world that is loving, compassionate, and filled with individuals who live together in harmony and peace.

A spiritual intention is a resounding YES to awakening to your fullest potential. It may include several of your life structures: mental, emotional, financial, relational – because there is no aspect of your life that is not spiritual.

When you make the U-turn to the Universal Presence and apply the Universal practices and principles, your life is changed.

Grow deep roots to harvest rich fruit! When your roots run deep, you cannot help but bear the fruit of the Spirit.

Do you live in a mine field or a garden? When we live in a minefield mentality, we explode with the weeds of worry, doubt, fear, lack and limitation. Choose to cultivate your inner garden!

Stand fully in the now moment with gratitude, enthusiasm, openness, and readiness to respond to Life as it greets you.

Peace Summit with the Dalai Lama, Eckhart Tolle, and the Noble Laureates by Catherine Ingram

You know you’re in a pretty hip city when its main newspaper’s weekend edition has the Dalai Lama as its guest editor, along with his big smiling mug taking up most of the front page. The theme of the special edition of The Vancouver Sun this past weekend was “Educating the Heart,” a catalogue of mostly good news and good works: youth activism, global organizations addressing the plight of the poor and oppressed, spiritual travel based on inner journeys, alternative health, animal rights, ethical business, and a focus on whether and how values of kindness and peace can permeate society. Reading this paper was not boring, as so many do-gooder publications tend to be, and left me in a quiet calm instead of the usual anxiety I feel after reading the usual news. The medium was certainly the message.
The weekend edition of the paper was the prelude to the Vancouver Peace Summit, a three-day gathering of luminaries including the Dalai Lama, Eckhart Tolle, Maria Shriver, numerous Nobel laureates, and a couple dozen other presenters. To describe the experience of this conference naturally introduces my own biases, like one of the blind men describing a part of the elephant in a way that is unrecognizable to the others feeling a different part. Several thousand people attended this conference, and no doubt each had their own favorite moments or interpretation of its general message. Here are the highlights for me:
The Dalai Lama emphasized again and again the need for women to have greater roles in leadership in all fields because, he said, they are “biologically” more nurturing and have a greater sensitivity to suffering. He feels that our educational system is the domain in which ethics and a connection to the totality of life needs to be taught now that there is a worldwide diminishment of the role of churches and the cohesion of families, arenas which once provided more spiritual and ethical sustenance. Following up on a challenge he made in 2006, he implored the educators and scientists attending the conference to introduce emotional and social intelligence in schools and for the media to start concentrating more on “good news,” stories that uplift our spirits instead of scaring us to death. Along these same lines, Eckhart Tolle suggested the introduction of “awareness” training in schools, not just as one of the subjects but as the main subject–“awareness of emotions, awareness of thoughts, of other human beings and their thoughts,” and for young people to learn to not equate their thoughts with who they are so that a child has a sense early on of his or her own nature and of the nature of the other children. In this regard, British Columbia has an interesting educational program, which came out of the Dalai Lama’s earlier challenge in 2006. As described by presenter Clyde Hertzman, the province is implementing programs of emotional learning and a study involving data from several thousand kindergarten teachers who have mapped early social and emotional signs in young children. Hertzman said that right from the beginning of a child’s life, the emotional atmosphere in which the child is reared is affecting deep structures of brain development and that children who grow up around angry faces and punishing circumstances have brains that are, by the time they enter school, structurally different from children who grow up in kindness and a sense of belonging. While it is harder for the disadvantaged children to thrive, it is not impossible to reverse the damage, and there is an emphasis in catching these situations as early as possible. B.C. is also implementing curriculums in social responsibility and mindfulness training and data is already showing that children in these programs not only exhibit more awareness and compassion for others but fare better in all educational studies as well.
California’s First Lady Maria Shriver and the Dalai Lama had a charming Q and A session in which Shriver asked of His Holiness questions such as, Do you think there will ever be a female Dalai Lama (he said yes) and, What do you worry about? (the environment and the gap between the rich and poor, which he feels is leading to large-scale frustration and anger).
Musicians Peter Buffet and Michael Kott played several soulful piano and cello pieces, one of which was about the dark alchemy of slavery in which “blood is turned into gold.” Its refrain asks, How can you live off the blood of another?” and was accompanied by video images of child laborers, child and adult prostitutes, and other forms of human sorrow.
There was a moment I heard about that I didn’t actually witness. After one of the sessions, the Dalai Lama and Eckhart Tolle held hands as they walked to lunch. It is an image I would have liked to imprint in memory, one that I might call upon in moments of distress. To most of the world, they are probably the two most respected spiritual leaders of East and West. But in these last days and over the many years I have known them both, they have shown themselves to be wise global citizens, beautifully human and simple, doing their part for a gentler world.
