Your Inner Compass

You may have noticed by now that not ALL of your inner thoughts are helpful or even remotely truthful. If we listen to and follow every thought and feeling, our daily lives, future, and inner peace are precarious indeed.

You have an inner compass, an inner "truth detector" that can allow you to navigate through life with greater peace and confidence. With practice, you can identify what is truth and what is not as clearly as you can tell daylight from darkness. It is one of the great tools that we each have access to.

Truth comes as a feeling or a sense. It is a whisper, and caresses so gently that if you are preoccupied you may not feel it at all.

There is a sure way that you can know if what you are thinking or feeling is true. Ask yourself: Does it persuade me to do good? to rise? to stand tall? to do the right thing? to be kind? to be generous?

You can always recognize truth by the fruit that it bears--if it enlightens, builds up, leads you to better thoughts and better words and better deeds, it is truth.

Begin now to work on developing and enhancing your innate ability to discern truth by practicing with the following MP3. It contains statements of truth. If you listen with more than just your ears, you will feel impressions within you.

As you listen, pay attention to how you FEEL inside as you hear and repeat each statement to yourself. How does it feel PHYSICALLY? That feeling, that place within you where that feeling lies, is your inner compass. In order to do this best, take just a few moments to be still. Inner stillness is vital to being able to FEEL truth.

Truth creates a unique FEELING within each individual. For some it is a feeling of inner warmth and strong emotion. For others, it is a quickening of the intellect and an inner stirring. As you begin to recognize what it feels like in you, you will soon have an anchor to come back to, letting you know when you are on track . . . and when you aren't.
