More from Michael Beckwith
Thirty years of spiritual practice has given me the realization that emotions are based on our perceptions, whether or not they are based on reality.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith We are on the planet to wrap our consciousness around the divine treasure within us.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith We are here to change. We are here to grow, develop and unfold. We are progressive beings that have infinite capacity.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith The truth is that there’s more than enough good to go around. There is more than enough creative ideas. There is more than enough power. There is enough for everyone. If you believe it, if you can see it, if you act from it, it will show up for you. That’s the truth.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith Authentic happiness comes from being in conscious connection with our inner being rather than dependency on outer things and circumstances which are constantly in a state of flux.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith Don’t look for your dreams to come true; look to become true to your dreams.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith Our universe is not a ‘was’ or a ‘will be’ system. It is an ‘is’ system vibrating within the ‘now’ measurement of time.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith Along with my spiritual practices of meditation, affirmative prayer, and visioning, what catalyzes my sense of aliveness is putting those practices into action by being of service to others.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith 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!
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith We’ve gotten caught up in thinking we are what we look like, the physical, the exterior. We think we’re the lamp shade. We’ve forgotten that we are the light-the electricity and the luminosity that lights up every man, woman, and child. The light is who we truly are.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith We are unlimited beings. We have no ceiling. The capabilities and the talents and the gifts and the power that is within every single individual that is on this planet, is unlimited.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith It has been proven now scientifically that, an affirmative thought is hundreds of times more powerful than a negative thought.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith It’s a wonderful destiny! God made no mistakes when God wrote the beautiful, unfolding pattern of delight as You!
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith You can change your life, and you can heal yourself.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith Meditation and prayer have withstood the test of time. They work today as perfectly as they did for those who first practised and perfected them.
Michael BeckwithMichael Beckwith We are pushed by pain until we are pulled by vision.
