The last year brought a lot of personal challenges into my life and I am grateful for that, grateful that I could execute a freedom of choice and got an opportunity to pursue personal enrichment and spiritual enlightenment.

There were minutes and days when I felt lost, frustrated, hurt, etc. But every time I found courage and strength to practice spiritual living and was able to open my heart to spiritual wisdom and practices that helped me to step away from periods of despair and enter the world of peace, love and joy. It worked every time… It never failed… I am a living example and proof that it works. My desire to master my comprehension of spiritual wisdom of generations and practicing it in my life made me to open this group. I want to bring similar minded people together, so we could learn form each other, share thoughts and experiences, help each other to overcome obstacles on the way to achieving a happier life filled with love, joy, prosperity and abundance.

Thank you again and hope to meet you in person soon,

SECRETS FOR SUCCESS AND INNER PEACE

TOPIC: "THE LAW OF DETACHMENT"

WHEN: March 31th, 2010
WEDNESDAY: 6:30pm-8:30pm
WHERE: MERCER ISLAND LIBRARY
4400 88th Ave SE, Mercer Island, WA 98040
 
"In detachment lies the wisdom of uncertainty...
In the wisdom of uncertainty lies the freedom
From our past, from the known,
Which is the prison of past conditioning...

And in our willingness to step into the unknown,
The field of all possibilities,
We surrender ourselves to the creative mind
That orchestrates the dance of the universe..."
 
I will put the Law of Detachment into effect by making a commitment to take the following steps:

1. Today I will commit myself to detachment. I will allow myself and those around me the freedom to be as they are. I will not rigidly impose my idea of how things should be. I will not force solutions on problems, thereby creating new problems. I will participate in everything with detached involvement.

2. Today I will factor in uncertainty as an essential ingredient of my experience. In my willingness to accept uncertainty, solutions will spontaneously emerge out of the problem, out of the confusion, order and chaos. The more uncertain things seem to be, the more secure I will feel, because uncertainty is my path to freedom. Through the wisdom of uncertainty, I will find my security...

3. I will step into the field of all possibilities and anticipate the excitement that can occur when I remain open to an infinity of choices. When I step into the field of all possibilities, I will experience all the fun, adventure, magic and mystery of life.

I would recommend to read and to bring with you a book "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success" by Deepak Chopra, a bestselling author, educator, and holistic health pioneer who shares his insights in this inspiring article on personal growth.

There are many aspects to success; material wealth is only one component. Moreover, success is a journey, not a destination. Material abundance, in all its expressions, happens to be one of those things that makes the journey more enjoyable. But success also includes good health, energy and enthusiasm for life, fulfilling relationships, creative freedom, emotional and psychological stability, a sense of well-being and peace of mind. Even with the experience of all these things, we will remain unfulfilled unless we nurture the seeds of divinity inside us. In reality, we are divinity in disguise, and the gods and goddesses in embryo that are contained within us seek to be fully materialized. Although I call the laws I'm about to discuss The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, they could easily be called The Seven Spiritual Laws of Life. This is because they are the same principles that nature uses to create everything in material existence--everything we can see, hear, smell, taste or touch.

Success in life could be defined as the continued expansion of happiness and the progressive realization of worthy goals. Success is the ability to fulfill your desires with effortless ease. And yet success, including the creation of wealth, has always been considered a process that requires hard work, and it is often considered to be at the expense of others. We need a more spiritual approach to success and to affluence, which is the abundant flow of all good things to you. With the knowledge and practice of spiritual law, we put ourselves in harmony with nature and create with carefreeness, joy and love. True success is the experience of the miraculous. It is the unfolding of the divinity within us. It is the perception of divinity wherever we go, in whatever we perceive--in the eyes of a child, in the beauty of a flower, in the flight of a bird. When we begin to experience our life as the miraculous expression of divinity--not occasionally, but all the time--then we will know the true meaning of success.

Now let's go over The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success and see how we can apply them in our lives:

1. The Law of Pure Potentiality
2. The Law of Giving
3. The Law of "Karma" or Cause and Effect
4. The Law of least Effort
5. The Law of Intention and Desire
6. The Law of Detachment
7. The Law of "Dharma" or Purpose in Life

Please read 7th and 8th Verses from Tao Te Ching and the same named chapters from Wayne Dyer's book "Change your thoughts - change your life" and come and join us for a group discussion and meditaion.

Verse 7th - "It's through selfless action that I experience my own fulfillment" - W.Dyer

Verse 8th - "I live in accordance with nature and therefore never go against the way of things" - W. Dyer

"Heaven is eternal - the eath endures.
Why do heaven and earth last forever?
They do not live for themselves only.
This is the secter of their durability.

Fro this reason the sage puts himself last
and so ends up ahead.
He stays a witness to life,
so he endures.

Serve the needs of others,
and all your own needs will be fulfilled.
Through selfless action, fulfillment is attained." - Tao Te Ching
