If you look deep inside your heart, you have been searching your entire life for the truth.
Our society and culture distracts us from this quest with so many material pursuits.

Get a degree, find a good job, get married, have a family, find your dream house, cars, boats and all types of toys, get rich, famous, sex, drugs, alcohol, find religion…. the list goes on.”

Do any of these things quench your true thirst for the truth and to find God and discover why you are here?

Most people are searching outside of themselves to fill their emptiness, for answers to what life is really about.  Yet the truth, is right here inside our hearts.

Instead of searching outside of ourselves, all we have to go is be quiet, be gentle and look within.  God is not somewhere else…..God is here, right now, God is inside our hearts.

God created us in his image and we are made of His energy.  God is not “outside” for us to find somewhere, God is inside our very being and His energy makes up our body, mind and spirit.

As Spiritual Beings, we are a part of God and his love and grace.  All we have to do is acknowledge this truth and align with this energy and we are home.  We are one.
This is why all people, as Spiritual Beings are connected.  This is why all life is connected.
God created everything from his energy.

No physical thing, relationship, success, business, or amount of wealth will quest this natural desire within each of us to connect with our Higher Self and God and actualize our Divine Potential.  All else ultimately falls short and pales in comparison.

Remember that you belong to no one, and no one belongs to you.  Reflect that some day you will have to leave this world, so make the acquaintance of God now.  It is only because of delusion that you perceive  yourself as a physical body.  Meditate unceasingly to realize your real, divine nature.”
