“Now has nothing to do with time. Now is another name for Awareness, another name for yourself.” – Rupert Spira

Welcome! It is the beginning of a New Year, a time of fresh starts, grand resolutions, and greater promise. Though this can be an optimistic time, we often end up disappointed and many of us eventually slide back into a personal status quo. In fact, some of you may have already abandoned some well intentioned resolutions made. Not to worry, there is a truer time of great promise, one that is always available to you and way more powerful than a mere new year. The time of which I speak is the ever fresh and powerful NOW!

There is only the Living Now, there is no other time. Now is the one place where Life actually is, so it is the only space in which it expresses. Tomorrow, yesterday, and yesteryear do not exist right now, they are nothing more than a sense, an image in mind, a story remembered or foretold; there is no Life present in any of them. Since there is only Now, it is, all is, complete and whole and abundant, for where else can these qualities express but in the Now? It is in the Now, alone, that all of your possibilities are alive!

”Live true in the present and the future must be what the present has been.” This is a quote from the series of books, The Life And Teachings Of The Masters Of The Far East, by Baird Spalding. I bring its sentiment to mind and heart continually. It reminds me that living true in this moment is the power that makes it possible to perpetually experience the equivalent quality of my present moment. But, what is it to live true in the present? It is to Be.

Being equals experience. You see, the only “time” there is, (which is Now), doesn’t really involve time at all, instead, it is who you Be – all there is is Being and Being contains the Whole. Since there is nothing more than Being, Being is already Whole and Complete, it is Abundance itself! It is who you Be that perpetuates itself into your “future.” So, Be true, Be true to the truth of Being and, in turn, that truth will be true to you. Carry your Wholeness, Completeness, and Abundance of Being in your conscious awareness. Be and perceive from this consciousness and you will experience its unfoldment into the forms experiences of your life.

Throw away barren concepts of New Years with all of its assurances of new beginnings, it is time to discover the true time of promise that comes out of being in the ever fresh and powerful Now. The only time is Now, it is you, Being. You are the time of great promise, the embodiment of Wholeness, Completeness, and Abundance! Be true – Be of this Consciousness – and you will surely guarantee a perpetuation of an ever fresh and powerful You!!
