Today is the Principle of Pure Potentiality-Living up to my potential has always been an issue with me. Dreaming alone is one thing, goal setting is another important component, however when we merge our dreams, uniting together living a purposeful life, I believe we can live up to our fullest, and richest potential.

There are many ways to activate the Principle of Pure Potential as outlined in Deepak Chopra's Best Seller "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success". One way is to remain in a state of self-referral, listening and hearing the thoughts of your mind. Sometimes, our minds are so turbulent that we forget the other wonderful pieces of our beautiful body's. Our minds become the obstacles, preventing us from attaining all of our deepest desires. Self-referral simply means that when we listen and hear our own thoughts, we have a choice to release all conditioned thoughts and judgements. When we are in self-referral we are in a state of awareness. When we are in object-referral we are overwhelmed and concerned about the thoughts of others, therefore restricting the essence of who we really are from merging forward with others. When we are in object referral we are needlessly worried about what the other person wants, thinks, or means. Object referral is a state of being in ego, using symbols, such as titles, cars, money as our reference point. However, when we are in spirit, or self-referral the only concern is our happiness. Happiness is the result of self-acceptance, acceptance of all things, all beings, all experiences, just as they are. Happiness is Health!

To bring our potential to the highest level of our awareness, there are three things you can do to begin the process of living in spirit. The first component is to practice silence, practicing silence is difficult. Have you noticed how uncomfortable you may feel in the presence of silence? Even the silence of your own mind is a gift. Our society is so built up on reactivity, when a thought pops into your head, just let it be. Don't get up and finish that letter, or make that call, rest in the stillness of your mind. Watch how your mind eventually gives up and quiets down. The second thing you can do to activate your pure potential is to commune with nature, follow a sunset, listen to birds sings, watch fish swim, or take a silent walk in nature. Commune, communion, self with self, self with nature. Commune with self. The third component for activating this beautiful principle, is to practice non-judgement. This means observing, not evaluating each and every thought, deed, or word that transfers throughout your day. Take an hour, two hours, a whole day to withdraw from television, a book, and just be, practicing stillness, communing with nature and observing life, people, situations, without judgement of how things could be, or might be, or could have been. These three simple steps will bring you closer to the magical essence of who you really are. Stillness in movement is a wonderful gift you can give yourself. Surfing is one wonderful pranic experience, allowing yourself to flow freely with the tides of the ocean, surfing is one opportunity for connecting the three components the law of pure potential. Be in rhythm with the tides of your environment, your body, your spirit, this is bliss. Stillness in all movement is the key ingredient which inspires the sense of samadhi, or bliss. No two waves, days, moments are exactly the same. Enjoy.

It is my testimony that by applying these simple principles your whole life will change. Your viewpoints will widen as you cast the net over larger, and grander opportunities. Your health, and mind set will improve and you will find that you can accomplish all that you desire by applying these gems while at the same time moving into your pure potential.
