Choose to be Happy: How affirmative prayer programs your mind

I’m actually a very happy person, and it feels really good to recognize it in silence. Everyday, I choose to be happy. But as soon as I write this sentence down, a little bit of my past fears scare me for a second. You see, I was not always this happy person I am today.

How many of you have heard “that’s life”, “some things will never change”, “you never know what can happen”, or “why even bother?” These common phrases keep you expecting the worse. Hearing them enough is also a way of self-programming. Your mind accepts these messages as true and executes them without discerning whether it’s good or bad. This is how the mind works.

If you live and think in fear, then that what you fear will come true.
Choose to live and think with trust and love in life’s wisdom, then a lovely life full of self- trust will manifest.

Self-programming works faster than you can ever imagine. In one week, since “choosing to be happy” and reinforcing this goal through self-programming (also called affirmative prayer), I got the job of my dreams in a great place, working with great people.

On the very day I quit my old job (a very progressing company but a depressing place to work at), my soon-to-be boss called me to ask if I would be interested in working with him. After his call I just sat down speechless: in shock and awe at the power of my self-programming sessions.
It was a very hard decision to quit my job without having anything else in my hands except my trust on the Universal Wisdom. I was just simply happy and grateful towards life.

Starting to consciously pray in an affirmative way will improve your relationships incredibly, and the way you approach life and how you feel is like a sort of small re-birth. And this state of happiness you can renew everyday; you’ll feel blessed.

Being this such a wonderful state to be in, I want to share these practical exercises with you. It is my intention to contage you with happiness.

What, when and where:
Prayers and auto-suggestions work at best right before you doze to sleep and when they’re the very first thought when waking up. Also in those moments of peace and silence, where there’s no chance to be disturbed.
Everyday, twice a day or more, when the conditions allow it, repeat the following text or make your own prayer according to your personal needs, and in a tone you personally use to communicate with the universe.

Be patient and consequent. Repeat this everyday, at least twice a day. Trust the power of the divinity in you and the universe. Choose happiness.

I CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY. I AM FREE.
The powers of my mind-spirit, in connection with the eternal Wisdom of the Universal Mind, open my inner doors to happiness.
Beauty, Truth and Goodness burst inside of me and fill every cell of my body with genuine joy.
Beauty, Truth and Goodness grow and expand outside of my body filling every single part of my life with blessings.
Everything I touch is beauty, the universe is wonderful
and I AM HAPPY and thankful for this gift

With this exercise you will discover that what one often hears: “happiness is real at moments, and it’s not a constant state to be at” is not at all true. People sometimes describe being happy as being “high”, laughter and joy unlimited.
Experience has taught me that “being happy” is actually a constant state in life, if you choose it to be. This state of happiness is sometimes affected by bad news or events, but you’re core element remains untouched. And as time heals, you always return to be your normal happy self.

It’s wonderful when you ask someone, if they could choose “what to do” or “where to be”, and their answer is:

I choose to be here doing exactly what I’m doing now.

This, my friends, is real freedom!

Good news: life starts here and has no end!

We have a spiritual career to get up to, and it will take us into eternity.

It’s time to free ourselves from the inherited concepts of karma, original sin, and guilt. This load on our backs doesn’t even belong to us. These concepts were sometimes used to establish discrimination among people; these concepts were often used to keep the privileged in power. Heaven is for every single one of us, if we want to. And nothing can take that away from us.
Be free!

This might come as a shock for some. You don’t have to be perfect, no obligated church visits, no purging-off your sins.
Your ticket to heaven is simply “Wanting” to make this journey. Inner longing to make this spiritual trip.

FAITH is your key to Heaven.

It sound simplistic and easy, but it’s not… and then, it is.
At least for me, it’s very liberating, this sense of freedom is hard to describe with words.

Nowadays, there seems to be this emptiness in the air. Some of us try to fill this gap with shopping, entertainment and pleasures, but when you’re alone with yourself, you might get to feel a bit lost. Many questions could arise:

• What’s the purpose of life?
• What’s the purpose of my life?
• What next?
• Is all this worth it?

For some people the purpose of life is:

• Protect and provide my country or my family
• Cure the sick
• Feed the poor
• Help humanity
• Bring happiness to my family

These are wonderful and important goals in life, for all of mankind.

But, the “ultimate purpose in this life”, the one Purpose that makes all other purposes achievable is the consciousness of our eternal destiny in Heaven; the spiritual career.

This spiritual consciousness intrinsically implies:

• Opening eyes and hearts to our brotherhood on earth and in the universe. As material (only temporarily), intelligent and spiritual beings we all come from the same origin, our substance is the same, and our purpose is the same.
• Having goals that transcend all material and temporary ambitions (life’s motiv(es)ation). This is the spiritual career.

And longing for this journey across this universe, knowing only “that” which many of our religions have preached, is a pure act of faith.
And this pure act of faith upon the spiritual career is what guides us and gives us the tools to achieve all of humanities biggest goals.

The material world is a result of the spiritual world; our planet won’t get better with material solutions alone. The change has to come from the inside, from every single one of us. And this deep conviction of spiritual and universal values is the true motor.

One of many beings that showed us the way was our loved Michael, known on earth as Jesus of Nazareth, with his life’s example he continues to inspire us to reach out into eternity starting from ourselves:

Beauty of actions
Truth of mind and intention
Goodness of heart and soul

The spiritual career, the description of Heaven, Life’s purpose, and the complete narration of  “The Life of Jesus” (narrated by spiritual beings) are but a few topics written on this wonderful book that changed my life: The Urantia Book.

Warning: If you decide to buy this book, I suggest you read it slowly, not necessarily from the beginning. Its concepts are hard to take at once; start by reading about things that have always interested you or intrigued you; and then slowly get to other deeper areas. I hope you love this book as much as I do.

Guardian Angels: How they work and how they relate to us

Guardian angels are our spiritual helpers. Their goal is to help you, me and every person on this planet to communicate with the divinity in us, and to be one with the God-Cell inside ourselves.

This angel assignment is done according to our intelligence and spirituality levels. Since the times of Jesus of Nazareth guardian angels have been assigned to each and every one of us, without exception.

Average man shares many guardian angels with others based upon similar intellectual and spiritual progress related to:

• Self-understanding
• Self-conquest
• Self-mastery

A “personal” guardian angel is assigned to you as soon as you evolve into a position of great decision making with potential of spiritual understanding and depth.

Your great “life” decisions are personal and no one else lives these decisions the way you do; everyone has their own experience. For you to consciously overcome fear and dare stand up to someone or some situations at hard times in a calm and well thought form, consequent with ideals or own moral standards can take a great deal of guts.

Personal guardian angels are assigned to you when these points are met:

• Capability of great life decisions
• Possible spiritual understanding
• Relative contact with your own divinity
• And when the “supreme” decision to be God-like is made

Being God-like

The “supreme” decision is made in that moment where you decide to be true to yourself, to life and to others; to love in all situations possible; to act consequently with that truth and love for yourself and humanity in your daily normal life. In that moment when you are conscious of being a part of the beauty of the universe, of this planet, of your country, city or family, and you want to cultivate this beauty: on this very moment you have been assigned a personal guardian angel.
You just simply want to be good and do good things in a good, healthy way.
It’s a way of life. It’s consciousness.

And this occurs whether you know or not that an active cell of God and his love is in you. Deepak Chopra, in his book How to Know God: The Soul’s Journey Into the Mystery of Mysteries, says that the urge to seek for answers, to look for God, to try and feel or understand the reality of God is in our DNA, we can’t help ourselves. We come from the love of God and we have the innate necessity to go back to our origin.

And this is what angels guard with jealousy:  our mind-spirit journey back to the Eternal Father in -what we call- paradise.

If you want to know everything about angels and many more things about God and the spiritual world and our eternal destiny, read the The Urantia Book
