Reveal Your Own Wholeness
All mental healing is based on the awareness of the presence of pure Life, or wholeness, at the center of the patient. It is a calling forth, if you will, of that wholeness into visibility. It is not a “repair” of something broken, but an act of transcendence. It is the One that is always wholly at ease, taking precedence over the temporary manifestation of dis-ease.
We get better because there is something in us that is not sick. There is something about us that is not in lack. There is an aspect to us that is never confused or addicted or damaged. If that were not so, no one would ever recover or make changes in their life. Human life is a collection of stories of how we are constantly interacting with the higher nature of our own being! We get great new ideas and act on them. From where do they arise? We decide to clean up our lifestyle and find a great resolve in us, the will to stick to our decision. Where was that all the while we were succumbing to the addiction? Who goes to the AA meeting, the alcoholic or the One who is already clean and sober?
As we focus on what is True about us, we see the weakness of what seemed to be true. We only thought we had to be sick and poor and unloved. We believed we were powerless over our addiction. We decided we had to protect ourselves emotionally and could never have real love. These are mental states based on the illusion that we are at the mercy of effects. Then one day someone, perhaps, shows us how to tune in to the Cause that lives within us. That is the moment we take charge of our life. That is the beginning of transcendent living. That is when our mind is restored to its natural condition; that of formulating thoughts and ideas which automatically reveal our own wholeness in all areas of our experience.
Stay tuned in.
Carol Carnes learned an ancient meditation technique in Hawaii that opened her mind and began the emotional healing she needed to find her own potential. Shortly after learning to meditate she was led to a New Thought spiritual center where she found the intellectual basis for what her intuition had been sensing as true and reliable. ​Today she is a New Thought teacher, an ordained minister of International Centers for Spiritual Living, a world traveller who has been in the company of HH the Dalai Lama and other world leaders in small group dialogues.

The practice that has helped me tune into "God inside of me" (my own personal wholeness) is that of silence. The "space", disconnect and nature of silence, leads me to a place of completeness. I feel intact and undivided. This is a state I am not "in" often, though I believe as I get older and life settles a bit more, time will better allow me this privilege.
Me+my son+my extended family+my work+responsibilities . . . . Divide me in such a way my sense of whole ness is diminished.
The closer I get to God, the further I move from earthly responsibilities, the more "whole" I feel.
"God inside of me"

most people live each day tying to be busy or occupied all through it by anything that catches their attention to keep themselves distracted from that weird feeling of a void inside that can't be filled by any kind of material consumption or addiction! When we allow this feeling to surface to the level of our consciousness,we cultivate awareness of it. We become observers of that presence of pure life energy, the potential seed of all possibilities and manifstations. This can be achieved through the silence of the ever occupied mind, through a state of alertness or meditation.

"Wholeness" is being at home with your body and its surroundings. Being present to yourself all those and all that you are surrounded with pleasant and unpleasant happenings. when i divert my income and talents and skill for the highest good of all I am at home with deeper peace and underlying bliss:shuddha-chitta-ananda. This journey to wholeness is like a deep prayer where you feel so happy and motivated to do good.

As I read and reflect on the seed question ,,,,,,in this moment, wholeness is the awareness of moving from the mental analysis state to allowing grace to be held in pure awareness of wholeness which leads to experience truth, beauty and goodness. I'm opening up to: There is nothing wrong at the core level of all beings that needs fixing--- it is the learning, developing, and evolving of spiritual intelligence from a state of humbleness
I practice intentional awareness of seen and unseen connections in life experiences as a whole and the moment to moment ease during states of overwhelm.

I sense a certain center, located around my heart from where I feel a certain spark, a certain energy illuminate me. This manifests as radiance, as a certain flow, a certain energy that I am present to.
In fact, when I am tuned into this energy, life outside also seems to flow - almost as if there is this One principle that pervades, within and without, and all we are doing is tuning into that same principle within us.
Often, dis-ease is only the body communicating something that we have refused to hear repeatedly.....each time I tune in I experience ease and move closer to being a part of the One
