PRELUDE
I have written this book from the only perspective I know - mine. It is through our unfiltered unique expression, in total alignment with God that we will find what our heart is searching for. The specific details in this book are less important to grasp than understanding the details of one’s own unique character, what makes you - you. If you find I have repeated myself or have capitalized certain words referring to a higher power, it was intentional. Without the experience, words mean nothing. The examples, analogies, and metaphors used within this book fall incredibly short of being a complete and whole description. They only point the way and are not a true bellwether to base your own forward progress upon. Instead, try to imagine what it is that I am attempting to convey rather than getting caught up in the lexicon. Words are just pointing the way. I am eager to convey what I have discovered.
When aligned with Source, fear steps aside and worry moves away. Anxiety turns and runs. Negative energy is shown the exit. Night becomes day. Misery is gone. Insomnia disappears. Depression becomes swallowed by the light. The label “chronic, severe anxiety” becomes a thing of the past. These distant memories still exist, but the pain is no longer felt. I was a different person in my youth. I was not me. Labels only disguise your true self. You only require one label standing on one emotional foundation - that label is God’s child, and the emotional foundation is peace. You are not your name, race, religion, or job title. You are not the thoughts of lack or struggle that creep into your head. You are blessed, whole, abundant, and secure. You are at peace, even when life’s challenges arise. Why? Because the same divine essence that makes up who you are, holds these challenges in its control.
Neither the information in this book, nor any other approach, is capable of anything other than helping you look inward to find your own specific expression of Universal Consciousness. No method will perfectly click with you unless it is your own. Finding yourself is freedom and is actually the source of our happiness. Following a religious tradition or the method within this book is fine for a short time, but modalities only point to the path someone else took. It is imperative to understand that our physical differences separate us in only the way the hand is not the same as the foot. In the very same way that blood nourishes both the hand and the foot, Universal Consciousness is the connection that all humans have together. It is up to each of us to determine our own path to enlightenment, our own path to true discovery. You will be ready to take a step forward in your own journey when you feel this peace within.
It is only our physical form, our appearance, and our thoughts that separate us from one another. We all share a divine essence as our roots. Outward appearances, and even our thoughts, may be in stark contrast from one another, but those differences are smoke and mirrors. Every person on the planet has a different face and yet is spiritually borne from the same divine essence. There is a connection between all of us - that connection is God, Universal Consciousness, Source Energy, or whatever name you label it. We all come from the same divine bloodline, so to speak. Part of the act of alignment is to quiet the mind and remove our individual judgments and labels. This enables you to see the world of contrast and differences as a light of oneness and unity. Alignment allows you to remove anything that might restrict you from seeing the divine essence in all people and things. When we know ourselves so deeply as to remove even our thoughts, we are then able to connect our individual expression of Consciousness to the One Consciousness. By doing so, one has everything necessary. Nothing is missing. The light removes the darkness, and we see clearly.
Chapter One
WHAT IT MEANS TO STOP THOUGHT

In order for you to come to a state of awareness and live from an inner state of abundance, you must first understand the term “no thought.” The connection between our thoughts and our level of anxiety is profound. We truly become the thoughts we think. Once you recognize that you have tied complaints, judgments, and labels to what you once thought were productive thoughts, you will be set free. Inside the stillness of no thought will arise wisdom and thus, will generate physical action that can be taken from a universal and creative standpoint. Rarely are new and creative actions taken while under the influence of your subconscious, habitual mind patterns.
Imagine you are in bed. It is two o’clock in the morning and you are awakened by an unfamiliar sound coming from another part of the house. It is pitch black as you listen carefully to hear where the next sound might come from. You wonder if it is a burglar. You are not thinking about the past or future. You deliberately stop all thoughts and listen very closely. You listen with all of your senses on high alert. That is an example of no thought. It is a deliberate act of stopping thought, but also being wide awake and alert at the same time. That state of mind is what you will want to practice as often as you can, without the intrusions of other thoughts or emotions during meditation.
Imagine being on high alert while waiting for something pleasant like a surprise birthday party. You are waiting with great suspense for the guest of honor to arrive. At that moment of anticipation, the mind is not automa
