Chapter 8: Omniscient Spirituality and Philosophy
The first seven chapters have been focused on the mind state of self and its relation to the different levels of experience. This chapter we will focus on the more metaphysical portion of this book. To best understand this chapter, I feel it is very important to understand its title. Omniscient means “all knowledge” and spirituality means “state of breath.” Knowing that the only constant besides your thoughts is your breath, can help you attain a balance between your “judging mind” and your “conscious mind.” A common way to attain this state is through meditation. By bringing your attention to your breath and allowing thoughts to move through you without judgment. Letting them be as they are, by letting go of need to control. Through this practice you develop a deeper connection with the ever-present universe, God, Goddesses or whatever label (or lack thereof) you decide to give to the infinite, that your body experiences when it is separated from your own thoughts.
MANTRAS
May all my thoughts be treated with compassion and serve as a spiritual teacher.
All that is dwells within me. I am connected with everything.
I am the embodiment of all that is Divine. When I let go, I will find all I seek.
QUOTES TO LIVE BY
“When you go out into the woods and you look at trees, you see all these different trees. And some of them are bent, and some of them are straight, and some of them are evergreens, and some of them are whatever. And you look at the tree and you allow it. You see why it is the way it is. You sort of understand that it didn’t get enough light, so it turned that way. And you don’t get all emotional about it. You just allow it. You appreciate the tree. The minute you get near humans, you lose all that. And you are constantly saying ‘You’re too this, or I’m too this’ That judging mind comes in. And so, I practice turning people into trees. Which means appreciating them just the way they are.” – Ram Das
“It is our behavior that alienates us from others, not so much how we look.
How we react is dependent on what we know and believe to be true.
Deep down we have the same basic needs and we seek answers to the same basic questions: Who am I? Why am I here? What is the point to life? Where did everything come from?
We are all searching for the same things we are all trying to develop an intimate understanding of existence. When we finally discover the answers to all our questions, and it is beginning to happen, we’ll unite as the same state of being appearing in multiple forms but in a state of oneness not separation. This is more than a possibility; it is predestined to happen.” – UniversalMind.org
“Life is a unique spiritual exploration and we as children of the universe need to embrace the gifts our soul provides and plant karmic seeds. The sacred way of the soul is such that we can heal the earth by living our destiny and learning the language of spirit. Beyond the stars lies a message of joy and hope that radiates throughout the universe. We are that message if we believe.” – Michael Teal
“There is a bridge to the sky within your soul and a doorway to healing and peace within your heart. If we look inside and embrace our true essence, we bless the source of life. See beyond your vision and you will find a garden of harmony and joy where every breath is a source of inspiration. If we dream new realities, we will open ourselves to abundant blessings. Together we can create miracles!” – Michael Teal

“You can’t use up creativity, the more you use, the more you have.” – Maya Angelou
“Any fool can know. The point is to understand.” – Albert Einstein

“Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand.” – Neil Armstrong

I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don’t want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic.” – Charles de Lint I believe in: Angels, fairies, nature spirits, prophetic dreams, divinities, and my own inherent spiritual power.

“Tip your server. Return your shopping cart. Pick up a piece of trash. Hold the door open for the person behind you. Let someone into your lane. Small acts can have a ripple effect. That’s how we change the world.”- Unknown
“True spirituality is to be aware that if we are interdependent with everything and everyone else, even our smallest, least significant thought, word, and action have real consequences throughout the universe. Throw a pebble into a pond. It sends a shiver across the surface of the water. Ripples merge into one another and create new ones. Everything is inextricably interrelated: we come to realize we are responsible for everything we do, say, or think, responsible in fact for ourselves, everyone and everything else, and the entire universe.”- Sogyal Rinpochehatersha

“You are unique. You may not think that the world needs you, but it does. For you are unique, like no one that has ever been before or will come after. No one can speak with your voice, say your piece, smile your smile, or shine your light. No one can take your place, for it is yours alone to fill. If you are not there to shine your light, who knows how many travelers, will lose their way as they try to pass by your empty place in darkness?” – Anonymous
One tree can start a forest;
One smile can begin a friendship;
One hand can lift a soul;
One word can frame a goal;
One candle can wipe out darkness;
One hope can raise your spirits;
One touch can show you care;
One life can make the difference…
“Lighthouses don’t go running all over an island looking for boats to save; they stand there shining. – Anne Lamott
“May I become at all times, both now and forever; a protector for those without protection; a guide for those who have lost their way; a guide for those who have lost their way; a ship for those with oceans to cross; a bridge for those with rivers to cross; a sanctuary for those in danger; a lamp for those without light; a place of refuge for those who lack shelter; and a servant to all in need.” – A Buddhist Prayer of Peace
“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6) But let him ask in faith, with no doubting for the one who doubts are like a wave of the sea that is driven & tossed by the wind.” – James 1:5-6
“It’s easy to tell if you’re ready for a miracle. Just open your eyes and look around you. Do you see miracles? If you do, then you’re ready. Because the truth is, Life is a miracle. If you’re not seeing it, then your eyes aren’t fully open, and you’re not ready. And that’s perfectly fine. With just a little patience and faith, you’ll get there.” ~Dorothy Mendoza Row
Real life is doing what you love with such intense focus and passion that there’s no conflict between what you want to do vs. what you should be doing.

”The value of persistent prayer is not that GOD will hear you, it’s that you will finally hear GOD!”- William McGill
“[Charles] I feel as though I have known you for much longer than the truth will reveal. What I sense about you is that you are a [someone] who pushes himself to be virtuous. When virtue is in presence, all subordinate powers sleep. Most people stand on the brink of the ocean of thought & power, but they never take a single step that would bring them there. The divine speaks through each of us, whether we listen or not. You listen [Charles,] & the act requires a certain sacrifice of self, which is noble & worthy. There is no universal applicability in people, but each has their own special talent, and the mastery of successful human beings consists in keeping themselves where & when they can most often practice their gift. We do what we must & call it by the names we can. I can’t recall any person who is not superfluous sometimes. Life is not worth the taking, to do tricks in. Creative power is absolute, speaks through you, it is the power which abides no man & and no woman, but for a moment speaks from this one, & another moment from that one, you are one of these…”- Charles William Flaum IV

“Learn to create silence in your mind and peace will flourish in your soul, you will see life with other eyes. You will discover God’s language. To be internally silent do not think too much. Trust others. Trust life. You will find it’s easier than it seems.” – Innerpeace
“The internal dialogue is what grounds people in the daily world. The world is such and such or so and so, only because we talk to ourselves about it being such and such and so and so. To be filled with the spirit, we must be emptied of self. The passageway into the world of shamans opens after the warrior has learned to shut off his internal dialogue.”- Carlos Castaneda
Healing comes from the heart. Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives.

The “Earth” without “Art” is just “Eh.”
“Healing comes from the heart. Healing is the empathetic understanding of the soul, including the inspirational affirmations and mantras needed to raise one’s spirit. There are healers among us: the performers, the drag queens, the artists, the lovers… most of which are devalued in out society- yet ironically crucial for the light up the world with vast arrays of color and dimensions.” – Charles Willam Smith III
“To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind, he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.” – Buddha
“If you want to reach a state of bliss, then go beyond your ego and the internal dialogue. Make a decision to relinquish (1) the need to control, (2) the need to be approved, and (3) the need to judge. Those are the three things the ego is doing all the time. It’s very important to be aware of them every time they come up. “~Deepak Chopra

The magnetic field produced by the HEART is more than 5,000 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain. The heart’s electromagnetic field– by far the most powerful rhythmic field produced by the human body—not only envelopes every cell of the body but also extends out in all directions into the space around us. Research conducted at Institute of HeartMath suggests that the heart’s field is an important carrier of information. The hearts magnetic field can be measured several feet away from the body.
Never discredit your gut instinct. You’re not being paranoid. Your body can pick up on vibrations, some better than others, and if something deep inside you says something’s not right about a person or situation, trust it and keep it pushing. “Every time you don’t follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.’ – Shakti Gawain
The earth’s magnetic resonances vibrate at the same frequency as our heart rhythms and brain waves.
If God is the creator, then God is an artist… And if we are all made in the divine image, therefore we are all artists. It’s not who people are that holds people back, it’s who they think they’re not. Beware of artists. They mix with all classes of society and are therefore the most dangerous.
Metaphysics- artist are gods God is a frequency that exists within you. Tune in.
“Everything changes when you start to emit your own frequency rather than absorbing the frequencies around you, when you start imprinting your intent on the universe rather than receiving an imprint from existence.” – Barbara Marcinak
I looked in temples, churches and mosques. But I found the divine within myself.” Rumi

“It’s easy to tell if you’re ready for a miracle. Just open your eyes and look around you. Do you see miracles? If you do, then you’re ready. Because the truth is, Life is a miracle. If you’re not seeing it, then your eyes aren’t fully open, and you’re not ready. And that’s perfectly fine. With just a little patience and faith, you’ll get there.” ~Dorothy Mendoza Row “All things are filled full of signs, and it is a wise man who can learn about one thing from another.”- Plotinus

Isn’t it amazing how all who see beyond the illusion come back with the same message?
The divine plan is not to escape earth, but to bring Heaven to Earth.
“I have a theory that distracting us with life on other planets is similar to distracting us with heaven and the afterlife, while robbing us of this world. We would only need one planet, if we lived on it properly. When the lie stops working (religion,) they try and attach it to the truth (Science.) We wouldn’t need another an after-life or another planet if we lived correctly.”- Charles W. Smith III
“I mutually respect ALL inspirational beliefs
I am open to all the possibilities of whether or not my talent could stem from a God(s). It seems to me to be just as foolish to say there is not a God- as to say there is. So, we must coexist and meet at the bridge of LOVE. Scratch past the surface, we’re all here together.” – Charles W. Smith III
“People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they’re not on your road doesn’t mean they’ve gotten lost.”- Dalai Lama XIV
Different strokes for different folks (relevant to prejudice, spirituality, sexuality.) The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It’s about what you’re made of, not the circumstances. (Ego trap.)
“For the accomplished spiritual warrior, the notion of belief, or view, here is based on complete simplicity. Your view is not affected by liberalism or conservatism, nihilism or eternalism, at all. Your view is straight forward and simple; it is almost a cosmic domestic view. It is the notion of complete simplicity. When you meet a person, you don’t have to develop a whole new style of how to view that person according to either the historic or present situation, the sociological context, his religious connections, or whatever it may be. You don’t have to go through all that. You can have a direct relationship, which is very simple, direct, and straight forward — extremely straightforward.”- Chogyam Trungpa
“What is spiritual strength? It’s knowing you don’t have to compromise yourself in any way – with anyone, over anything – in order to be content, confident, and secure in life.” ~ Guy Finley
“Power is being aware of what one is choosing to do, feeling free to do it, and doing it intentionally. Power is freedom to choose with awareness and to involve ourselves in health-promoting and other activities. Power is how we participate in creating our reality.” -Dr. Gerald Epstein
“To whom much has been given much will be expected, and from the man to whom much has been entrusted the more will be demanded” – Luke 12:48
The Aries zodiac sign is a spiritual warrior that fights and protects what they believe in. They believe in passion, excitement, laughter, change, and life. Aries has a goal, and it is to burn, shine, and look good while doing it! You can see their light in their smile and sparkling eyes as their warm inviting personality compliments them.
“Foster and polish the warrior spirit while serving in the world; illuminate the path according to your inner light.” – Morihei Ueshiba

Sing as though no one can hear you, Live as though heaven is on earth.
“When you have come to experience a deep-level shamanic journey, you come to recognize the personal truths involved. Then you have undergone a self –initiation into realms of reality that you know is present for everyone, whether they are open to it or not. Shamanic journeys are not a part of what we call shared reality. They are the deepest exploration we can make into our personal reality. When we explore personal reality in this manner, we come full circle into the greater level of Universal reality, also known as the collective unconsciousness. This is also the soul consciousness. When we journey shamanically, it is as though we have dug a well so deep in our own consciousness that it reaches the source of all consciousness.”- Amber Wolfe
“Man becomes aware of the sacred because it manifests itself, shows itself, as something wholly different from the profane… in the human encounter with the sacred, Man experiences a reality that does not belong to our world yet is encouraged in and through objects or events that are part of the World.” – Mircea Eliade
Love is the heart of creation
“Life is a journey of sacred choices, a heart centered endeavor of love in which the whispers of our spirits open our souls to greater possibilities and higher blessings. If you allow your soul to sing a lullaby of love to all humankind, you will walk with the Angels into a life of lush gardens and rainbow light. Life is what we make it, so let your goal be to create an existence where you soar freely into the heavens of happiness.” – Michael Teal
