How to Gracefully Walk into the Emerging New World...Now

Change is happening! A sweeping, life-altering transformation is well under way. Even as old-world structures crumble around us, a new world–bright with possibilities–is already rising. We can begin walking in this beautiful new world, this spiritual renaissance, now. Go to article "An Urgent Wake-up Call."

What will it take to make this shift? Our old assumptions no longer serve us, and we’re looking for new and better explanations and laws to apply. In a nutshell, we’re entering a period of love, brotherhood, and peace. I know, that’s still really hard to believe, but it’s true. It’s essential that we move from a focus on the material to a focus on the spiritual, that we move from competition to brotherhood, and that we move from fear to love. So, here are some steps you can take right now to begin living in the new world:

Here are five steps you can take:

1.) Release all of your outdated beliefs and attachments--all of them. (Go to article "Releasing Attachments.")

2.) Open your heart. Go into your heart and embrace your brothers and sisters, Mother Earth, and Spirit or Being.

3.) Simplify your life. Reduce your consumption, your use of resources, and your dependence on others.

4.) Harmonize with Mother Earth and Spirit. Reconnect with the natural world around you and open yourself to guidance.

5.) Recognize and accept grace–trust! Open to the possibility of receiving even more grace.

Whether we find ourselves

on a beautiful beach or confined to a small cell,

we can always find a manifestation of life,

revealing itself as a miracle anywhere we are.

Consider the Good of the Whole

We live in a very individualistic, competitive, and often even combative culture. It's common for people to behave in self-protective and self-serving ways, often ignoring the effects their actions have on others, or the larger world around them.

We will have to conduct our lives in an entirely different manner in order to live together in harmony on this planet. We will need to expand our frame of reference to encompass a larger, more inclusive picture, and take into consideration the longer-range consequences of our actions.

Before you make any choice or take any action, think first how your decision will affect the people closest to you, your local community, the nation in which you live, and then world we all share.

To the very best of your ability, select actions that will benefit the whole, and act for the good of all.
