“Be you therefore, a wise gardener. Cultivate a deep love and respect for yourself... until you have loved yourself wholly by having purified the mind of every erroneous thought you have ever held—until you have loved yourself—you do not, in truth, love anyone or anything. Save in those brief moments when you let your guard down and the Love of God shines forth through you so quickly you do not even know what happened! The wise gardener cultivates a state of consciousness in which the Love of God is unimpeded.” ~ The Way of Mastery : Part One: The Way of the Heart

You are perfect. You are consciousness animating a human tree.

Your tree is perfect. The roots have twisted and turned, breaking through the rocks, clutching underground mountains of earth to hold steady against the wind of life’s storms.

Your trunk has thickened and barked to hold the weight of a million choices and an ocean of emotion.

Your limbs have stretched toward the light of the sun--love, inspiration, creation.

Your metamorphosis as sure as photosynthesis. As long as the sun shines!

Your consciousness is perfect. It is the mirror upon which perception is cast, reflecting scenes of time in the play of eternity. It is the thinker aware of its thoughts. It is a piece of the all-light, of Source, shepherded in your heart until upon singularity it will return. It is nothing you can clutch with your hands, but yet it is there--the light of a firefly or the breath of a buffalo in winter.

(Art: by Catrin Welz-Stein)

You are perfect. You are a spectrum of color in the cosmic kaleidoscope.

You are an instrument playing a note in the universal symphony.

You are a facet of an infinite diamond. The infinite flaws creating flawlessness. Without your own unique shape and color, your own unique sound, the masterpiece of creation would be incomplete.

You are perfect. Everything is perfect. ~ Aubrey Marcus
