    Katie is Brilliant! She is one of the most centered and conscious people on the planet.
    What she’s explaining here is the theory of time being simulataneous. You’re always going to be in your NOW, it’s what some refer to as the “Eternal Now”. We’re creating our future with every word we speak. The story that we’re living, is the story you keep telling yourself. Start telling a new story and watch what happens in your NOW in the Future :-)

    What I don’t get is that what is the point of all these teachings? Does it mean that there is nothing you can do about your future than not to stress about it cos u stressing about it is not going to change anything. Or is it teaching us that as far as we are ok now there is no need to worry about the future cos it doesn’t exist yet. I am new to listening to this kind of messages so I am a little confused.

    do you have to ponder the future so that you can handle your future? what would happen if you dropped the future? well you wouldn’t be anxious about the next moment, it’s gone.

    reality is perception, everything you see and touch is yours. we are livin’ in a world projected by mind.

    I had a deep realization yesterday, as I was listening to Katie’s audiobook, I saw my life without my anxious thoughts. Can seem pretty simple but what I saw was a life that is free.

    You are always home.

    Is it true? Who the fuck knows…

  • rlzzxx said:

    Yes. Not Katie’s words but, what is. She points to it.

  • sivko23 said:

    i really saw myself in your words, we all have these terrible fears, but funny thing is they never happen…. not close to what we feared, ever…

  • rlzzxx said:

    @sivko23 Thank you. This is.

  • sivko23 said:

    If we believe words of Katie, neither do you or i exist, we simply dont exist now, only as a particle of focus in the space of our mind , compared to universe of all existence in the infinity of universe we could dare to say that we dont exist. But in other dimension you can also say we do exist, in dimension of selective mind, good news we can always go back to safety of oneness no matter how bad the content we are focusing on the outside is.

  • sivko23 said:

    This may sound crazy if you are not prepared for what i m going to say , but , those experiences in the degree of horrible they will happen to you, will never actually happen to you. Neither to your familly, if we are all one, nothing can happen to anyone, it depends on what kind of thinking culture you choose to live with.

  • rlzzxx said:

    Thank you. This is what I am exploring, how do we accept the most horrible of our life experiences as what god wants…reality

  • sivko23 said:

    i know what you mean, it can happen to our familly, but we all will die one day and endure pain, its just with what kind of thoughts we ll go thru it

  • rlzzxx said:

    When I’m abducted from my home in the middle of the night and put in a steel cell and beaten and raped and drugged and then my family is brought before me and raped and beaten and their limbs sawed off and their eyes gouged out…then I want to know what is real…

  • rlzzxx said:

    If you truly did theWORK, no post would be omitted

  • rlzzxx said:

    I’d like a date with that woman. I have tons of money for her security…( backed by my monopoly winnings)

  • bellehaup said:

    The work is wonderful, but how horrible would it be if I were the one standing up sharing my personal stuff with Katie so I could get clear – all the while a youtube video was being taped without my knowledge for all the world (including employers, employees, neighbors, church members, ex(es) and family members who think I’m nuts and this proves it). I’m just not that generous.

  • MrCuriouslad said:

    What about when someone gets raped? Are they ok in that moment?

  • barbarasfdavis said:

    I believe that you do not mean any harm. Expressing hatred of God harms no one. I think Katie is saying that God is not the one who is cruel. Our thoughts are where cruelty is born and lives. It seems to me she is trying to help us get free by not being victims of God, but to see that we are victims of cruel thoughts.
    Well, that’s just an idea. I have said the same about God that you say; my fight with God is not #1 in my life now. Maybe one day I’ll love God! Meanwhile I want to be free, free!

  • honeybagder said:

    i hate god he is a cruel bastard. dont mean any harm but fuck god the asshole

    mwah!

  • JaneyfromKorea said:

    ditto!

  • angelkny said:

    Do they? The past is gone, so its non-existent. And the future exists? how do you know? have you gone there. You’re only always in this moment NOW, whether you ever realize it or not. We can only live in this present moment. Ever.
