Purpose

On By thinkcarebelieveIn Thought ProvokingLeave a comment

The last post discussed ambition for the ego’s sake leading to an emptiness inside.  This post centers on finding purpose in order to live a life of meaning.  The search for our life’s purpose begins with complete honesty with ourselves.  That means self-forgiveness and self-acceptance.  We have to be willing to start with a clean slate.  Then we have to be willing to get in touch with that little divine spark inside of us that is both unique and part of God the Universal Source.  When we align ourselves and resonate with that part of us, life just flows.  The Universe seems to work with us and happy little synchronicities begin to occur.  When we align with our purpose, we are telling the Universe we are here to dance with life, and the Universe, in turn brings us more.

Dr. Wayne, in The Power of Intention wrote,

“Intention and purpose are as beautifully and naturally intertwined as the double helix of your DNA.  There are no accidents.  You’re here for the purpose that you signed up for before you entered the world of particles and form.  Many of the things that you refer to as problems result from the fact that you’re disconnected from intention and therefore unaware of your true spiritual identity.  The process of polishing that connecting link and reconnecting is basic to your intention to live your life on purpose.  As you cleanse this link, you’ll make two very important discoveries.  First, you’ll discover that your purpose is not as much about what you do as it is about how you feel.  Your second discovery will be that feeling purposeful activates your power of intention to create anything that’s consistent with the seven faces of intention” (Being creative, kind, love, beauty, ever-expansive, abundant and receptive.)

But what do you do if you don’t know what your purpose is?  Dr. Wayne suggests dropping the question and the frustration first before you take a step further.  He suggests that since we came into this life with no material things and we will leave with no material things, we will feel most on purpose when being in service to others.  No matter what we choose to do, when our purpose is to be in service to God the Universal Source and others in our human evolution, we are being purposeful.  When we are motivated that way, and detached from the outcome, we will feel more meaning by living with purpose and intention.  We feel happy and content knowing we are doing the right thing.

When we are living our purpose in the flow of life, the Universal Source will provide us the resources to continue our work.  And when we resonate with the flow of life, we are better able to work with the Law of Attraction to manifest what we need.  If you have been wondering about what you should be doing, that is your purpose trying to re-connect with you.  If you are feeling lost and cannot manage to figure out your purpose, ask for the guidance you need.  You can say it silently or speak it.  We are never alone and someone is always listening to us.  The energies are ripe now for your prayers to be heard and answered.  Let go of judgments and condemnations.  Let go of all that has stood in the way of getting to where you want to be.  Forgive others, forgive yourself.  If it’s too hard, then just declare it or use the affirmation below.  All is in alignment right now to claim our divine right to peace and happiness. Connect with God the Universal Source and your Angels.  Ask for signs, ask for guidance.

Lastly, Dr. Wayne says this about purpose,

“There’s a silent something within that intends you to express yourself.  That something is your soul telling you to listen and connect through love, kindness, and receptivity to the power of intention.  That silent inner knowing will never leave you alone.  You may try to ignore it and pretend it doesn’t exist, but in honest, alone moments of contemplative communion with yourself, you sense the emptiness waiting for you to fill it with your music.  It wants you to take the risks involved, and to ignore your ego and the egos of others who tell you that an easier, safer, or more secure path is best for you.  Ironically, it’s not necessarily about performing a specific task or being in a certain occupation or living in a specific location.  It’s about sharing yourself in a creative, loving way using the skills and interest that are inherently part of you.”

 

Affirmation:  

It is my intention to live with purpose.

I claim my right as a divine human being to live my life with meaning, in peace.

From this moment on, I will walk my path with purpose.

Ambition

As Dr. Wayne said in The Power of Intention,

“That inner beingness knows why you’re here, but your ego prods you to chase after money, prestige popularity, sensory pleasures and miss the purpose of living  you may feel sated and gain a reputation, but inside there’s that gnawing feeling typified by the old Peggy Lee song, ‘Is That All There Is?’  Focusing on the demands of the ego leaves you feeling unfulfilled.  Deep within you, at the level of your being, is what you were intended to become, to accomplish, and to be.  In that inner placeless place, you’re connected to the power of intention.  It will find you.  Make a conscious effort to contact it and listen.  Practice being what you are at the source of your soul.  Go to your soul level, where intention and purpose fit together so perfectly that you achieve the epiphany of simply knowing this is it.”

My friend, Erik, in his Mom’s blog, talks about ego and fulfillment this way,

“When you see these people (pointing to his eyes) you can see it in their eyes. But it’s hard because ego and the understanding of what it is—it’s probably one of the most misunderstood things that, by understanding it, you can change your life. When these people reside more in ego, that’s when you see these lost souls who continually have illness. They haven’t found that sacred inner space that has nothing to do with ego. Mom, when you get to that sacred inner spot, you bring your awareness there and consciously connect. It’s more like everything else just naturally falls away.  Then you naturally become your authentic self. You naturally become a higher vibrational frequency, and the higher your vibration, the less likely you are to have physical illness.  If you can control the mind and not become a slave to your own thoughts, you can live a life of peace, but there are all these people out there that are like, ‘Oh, I can’t make my mind shut up!’ Well, as long as you believe that you can’t make it shut up, that’s what you’ll experience. The difference is that when you find yourself looking outside for happiness, health and joy, peace, that’s when you know there’s a lack of connection to the spiritual body.  Mom, to get [mind, body and spirit] on the same page and in good shape, honor your true self every moment you can. Be mindful in that. “I’m doing this because I love myself,” or whatever. The more you can allow yourself to be yourself, the more you’re going to nurture all three, but when you begin to believe others’ thoughts of you, other ideas, other concepts, even your own negative thoughts about yourself, you do damage to all three.”

Our current evolutionary shift is about the change from living life from the ego to living from a passion to create deeper meaning and fulfillment.  Dr. Wayne, in his blog explained the four major shifts we go through in life to attain greater purpose in one’s life.

His 2-hour movie, originally titled “Ambition to Meaning” is now called “The Shift.”  This movie is so worth watching and many have called it life-changing.  (If you love this movie and want to own it, it be purchased through Hay House or Amazon.)
