"Truly recognize the things that benefit you. Then go with them to the finish line."

"We all carry our personal demons. It is part of our human life and our evolution. But the one demon that is the most dangerous, the one we must face first, is the one that protects all the others by saying, 'Hey dude, there is no problem, no demons here. Just carry on.' That is the one we must face first."

Seeing God

"A person who is hurting and hungry won't care if you have just seen God. All he cares is to eat something and have his pain stop. If you don't know how to relate to his reality, your perceptions are clearly incomplete, since God is right in front of you, hurting and hungry." Andreas Mamet

Jewels from the Beyond

I am going to post a link to the book you see below. It is an extremely advanced text and the mind will scream at many things stated in it or misinterprete. However, try to read it like poetry or relate to it like watching a sunrise as you read it. If you can just allow yourself to fall into this text, without resisting it, something might transpire for you...

Simonne

The other day we spent the day with Simonne, she is 87. She said, "I am an old woman. I HAVE to live in the moment and spontaneously act in it, because tomorrow I might not have a chance." The statement lingered with me. We all should live like that. As if tomorrow we might not have a chance.

If...

"If i can find the words that stir your soul into embracing the longing for itself, then I have truly spoken well." Andreas Mamet

Feedback from Ilga

Here is what Ilga has to say after the last workshop in Paris, for which she flew in from Riga.

Andreas,

Durga every day... In addition to the daily practice, sometimes I'm doing it spontaneously (when I get the feeling...).
1. I've been unusually forgetful these days, though much calmer and self-reliant, uplifted yet grounded. In a way, I feel safer and more comfortable with myself than before. The confidence has further increased...
2. My neck tensions are almost gone!
3. I've noticed that the expression of my face and my behavior has changed.
4. People look at me and react to me differently (than before workshop). In fact, they are nicer to me! :))))
5. Yesterday, I bought a small Durga (Dur-ga!!!) figurine....
6. I have a feeling of expansion and just knowing some things...
7. Yet, I don't see huge sums of money on my bank account and my emerald rings - where are they, actually? :)))))))))
So, Andreas, thanks again for giving me this possibility, for this wonderful experience and for being a real teacher to me, for caring so much and for bringing love and light! And thanks Raylene, for encouragement, kindness, love and caring, sharing your experiences and your book and tea! And thanks, Olivier - for being so kind and generous! And thanks to all my new friends - I'm so glad I had a chance meeting you! I keep going and I'm enjoying my journey.... GA (Sanskrit)=GO, by the way! :)
I can only recommend that people come to Paris for the workshops and see for themselves how their world is going to change in most tangible ways... You are going to meet wonderful people and become real friends with them, like I did! I And Paris is certainly worth seeing, too, by the way! :)
Love and light, light, light, light... :)

Every moment ...

Every moment we are surrounded by 360 degrees of choices for our words and actions. We can speak and act from our mind, from our emotions, or from our hearts and souls. We can speak and act from our shadow or from our Light. We can encourage, uplift or destroy. The choice is always and constantly ours.

On Accountability

If we could daily alert ourselves to the fact that there are immensely powerful forces existing that will ultimately measure and respond to the effects of our words, actions and omissions, we would not do many things and we most definitely would start doing what we have forgotten to do, what we came here to do.

On knowing somebody

The other day a wise man said to me: "You don't know anybody when they are down. You know them when they are in power."

On recognizing a truth

"When we hear a truth, we tend to recognize it. It does not mean we will act on it, because it may be much too inconvenient to let that truth into our lives." Andreas Mamet

Mandala of Compassion

"As people we can form a living Mandala. If we are willing to share our abilities to support one another, great magic is possible. What is needed is a collective YES to live and breathe in the Spirit of Mutual Support to work together and create beauty on this planet." Andreas Mamet
