Christina's Daily Inspiration- Contemplative Meditations

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” Albert Einsteinlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”? Nelson Mandela,linktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

As we begin to bathe in the Silent Presence within, this sweet, deep, flowering Love begins to open and expand from within us. This Love inspires and guides us on. It provides gentle reminders through our awareness when we lose the present moment or make a choice that is out of alignment with our Soul. It provides insight and understanding that allows us to make wiser choices for ourselves and others. ~ Christina Bauer from "The Power of Our Unshakable Presence~ Finding Permanent Peace In Intense Times"Book now available in the link belowlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive 

True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.~Socrateslinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Living By The Spirit~This is the real meaning of the life of Withinness~ the mystical life that lives in and through the Spirit, rather than in and through the material world. It releases us from all attachment to the outer universe: we have no fears, no hopes, no ambitions. We are living in the Spirit, through the Spirit, and by the Spirit.    Joel Goldsmith~  A Parenthesis In Eternitylinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Willingness is one of the most helpful attributes that I have found to the recovery of our True Self. We call it a recovery but of course it has been with us all along. We are simply getting out of our own way so that it can be revealed. ~ Christina Bauer ~       From her book: "The Power of Our Unshakable Presence"  available now on Amazon.comlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.—Mother Teresalinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

“If you put your hand into a fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: When your hand starts to burn, it moves. You don’t have to direct it; the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it.”  ~Byron Katielinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

“Make no mistakes about it – enlightenment is a destructive process. It has nothing to do with becoming better or being happier. Enlightenment is the crumbling away of the untruth. It’s seeing through the facade of pretense. It’s the complete eradication of everything we imagined to be true.” Adyashantilinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive   

It's true about the eyes being the window to the soul.~Your face can be etched with worry, and twisted by aging, but the eyes tell the true story of who you are.~ Naomie Harrislinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

You would know the secret of death. But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life? The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot unveil the mystery of light. If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide unto the body of life. For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one. In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond; And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring. Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity. Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour. Is the shepherd not joyful beneath his trembling, that he shall wear the mark of the king? Yet is he not more mindful of his trembling? For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun? And what is it to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand a

I am so fresh in soul and spirit that life gushes and bubbles around me in a thousand springs.Robert Schumann

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.~ Morgan Freeman linktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.Meister Eckhart ~ German Mystic c. 1260 – c. 1328linktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Resistance causes suffering ~Acceptance brings relief.Presence with both allows RECOGNITION~We ARE the Observer~ Observing the dream of life. ~Christina Bauer ~Morning Meditationlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

If there were no night, we would not appreciate the day, nor could we see the stars and the vastness of the heavens. We must partake of the bitter with the sweet. There is a divine purpose in the adversities we encounter every day. They prepare, they purge, they purify, and thus they bless.~James E. Faustlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Truth is by nature self-evident. As soon as you remove the cobwebs of ignorance that surround it, it shines clear.~ Mahatma Gandhilinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Love as Understanding~We all want to be understood and to be understanding. Most of us wish that those we meet could see into the center of our being, could see what we have been fro the beginning, but which no one has yet recognized- not mother, father, nor teacher. No one has ever seen what we really are, and it is because of this nonrecognition that we have worn a mask to hide ourselves from the world. If only that mask that is hiding your from me and me from you could drop from our faces, we would be like children. Everyone longs to be understood, but most persons think that that means being known as they are humanly. That is not what it means at all. Those who believe that do so because they do not yet know that the Soul is their true identity and this is really what they would like to show forth.  ~ Joel Goldsmithlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

A man has to learn that he cannot command things, but that he can command himself; that he cannot coerce the wills of others, but that he can mold and master his own will: and things serve him who serves Truth; people seek guidance of him who is master of himself.~ James Allenlinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. Lao Tzulinktr.ee/christinabauerintuitive
