What is it about teacher, intuitive, and mystic activist Carolyn Myss? Over the years, I’ve been sort of put off by her. But after hearing her Omega fearless speech, I’m utterly smitten. She’s got this marvelous stand-up schtick, with her cropped hair and bright business-y suit. She reminds me of Lucille Ball after a couple of drinks, eyes narrowing for penetrating emphasis. Myss clearly gets a buzz off her innate spiritual essence. She is wise as well as hysterically funny.

Myss told us that she’s too stressed to meditate, but has been helped by the realization that she’s “living in a meditation.” She prays like crazy, is grateful to the Roman Catholic template she was raised within, but is no fan of the Vatican.

Here are some nice lines from her presentation:

“Nothing requires as much courage as looking into your soul.”

“The New Age spiritual movement gave us a wonderful playground to go into. It got us to enter the world behind our eye. But now it is middle-aged. And it needs to be reevaluated.”

“We are mystical activists. We are being called upon to be active.”

“Reason is the greatest obstacle. Reason stands at the door of your soul.”

“We struggle to forgive because we try to do it through our ego. Forgiveness must be done through the soul.”

“Great mystics changed the world with their souls. Their souls were a vessel for a source much greater than themselves.”

“If you rely on the power of your soul, then you’re in bliss.”

“Go into your soul. Go into your task of prayer. Pass it over to God.”

“Your soul is coming up. There is a place of service for you in this world.”

Next week I’ll tell you about James Van Praagh’s presentation on the what happens to the soul after death!
