Good Mornings with CurlyNikki - Daily Meditations & Christian Prayers for Healing

You’re feeling absolutely fantastic this morning! But not for the reason you think. You don’t feel good because it’s Christmas Eve. You don’t feel good because you know what’s under the tree, or even because you’re off work or have no professional Zoom meetings tomorrow (likely for a whole week!), or that your favorite food is being prepared, or that your playlist is FIRE and the Temptations are going in on ‘Silent Night’.All of these things may very well seem to be happening, but they’re not causing that quiet-Joy you’re aware of. You’re just presently in alignment... allowing yourself to feel good, to experience God. You’re currently BEing your true Self! This is your natural state— one of uncaused joy, ease, love, relaxation and peace. What people call ‘The Christmas Spirit’ is your original nature, and you can feel this way even on your first day back to work, if you give yourself permission.God didn’t come closer this morning, and It won’t get further away next week. We just changed the way we are living in this moment. And now we must keep living this way... remembering to recognize that the Light is ALWAYS on inside. That we are this Light.If you can stop waiting for special occasions to remember this background Joy, to feel Go(o)d, to be yourSelf, your life will change drastically from the inside out and very rapidly. I promise you. #MerryChristmasWith you in and AS Christhood,@curlynikki--Our new book, 'Wake Up to Love' is HERE! Get your copy. Share a copy.

While doing whatever one is doing— seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, eating, moving, sleeping, breathing or talking— one should realize one’s essential nature as pure consciousness. Thus does one attain liberation.” - The Yoga Vasistha

Lovingly affirm:"I am immersed in the flame-The flame of time,The flame of love,The flame of life.The universal fire flows through me."*The Living God is appearing as you and every seeming thing. I feel Light(er) when you get this. And you're getting this. I Love you, nik"Everything exposed to the light itself becomes light" (Ephesians 5:13). In prayer, we merely keep returning the divine gaze and we become its reflection, almost in spite of ourselves (2 Corinthians 3:18). The word prayer has often been trivialized by making it into a way of getting what we want. But I use prayer as the umbrella word for any interior journeys or practices that allow us to experience faith, hope, and love within ourselves. It is not a technique for getting things, a pious exercise that somehow makes God happy, or a requirement for entry into heaven. It is much more like practicing heaven now.+Adapted from The Naked Now: Learning to Seeas the Mystics See, pp. 22-23."Live for a few days in the meditation,"I am immersed in the flame-The flame of time, The flame of love, The flame of life.The universal fire flows through me."Step into that fire. wholeheartedly,Starting with the big toe,Then, surrendering everywhere.Only the not-self,Which doesn't exist anyway,Burns away.Attend to this continually And awaken into tranquility.Your essence is renewed in the flame, For it is flame and knows itself as flame Since the first heartbeat of creation.Imagine the entire world consumed by flame.Stay steady, do not waver,As fire transmutes form into light.The soul reveals itself."To itself as Radiance.- the Radiance Sutras

A meditation to help you IMMEDIATELY surrender negative thoughts. It's useful not just during 'formal' meditation, but in every moment you find yourself fearful or worried. You shift from being aware of being 'you', to being aware AS the Christ Light that you truly are. You shift out of your mind, and into the mind that was in Christ. Into the no-mind of the Buddha. How does that mind sound? Is it thinking about your troubles, your past, your future? Or is It silent... steady? How does It feel? Stay (t)here.

I did not reason out that I should be free, I found myself free, unexpectedly, without the least effort. Spontaneity became a way of life, the real became natural and the natural became real. And above all, infinite affection, love, dark and quiet, radiating in all directions, embracing all, making all interesting and beautiful, significant and auspicious."-Nisargadatta MaharajSupport the show

What do you hear when thinking stops?When wanting stops? Ask yourself that question and linger in the silence behind the question. Who am I when I want nothing? ...Before I went to India,I was told in a very Divine way by someone sent to me,to come there with an empty heart,and an empty mind,not wanting anything,not desiring anything,not craving anything,not seeking solutions or answers,not seeking anything,not expecting anything at all.And I felt it.I heard that message so clearly.And of course, the mind came up and I said, "Well, how do I do that? How do I go about doing that?"And he said, "just Love God."The Loving replaces the wanting.It eclipses it.You just keep quiet.You go where there are not words, and you find the Love (t)here, and you place your attention (t)here.The wanting may still be (t)here,but your attention is on the Loving,it's on the having. He said, "You come like that,you come empty and open, and you'll get everything you want.Everything you wanted. That's the secret.I love younikSupport the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings"Give me grace to see beyond this moment here. to believe that there is nothing left to fear. that You alone are high above it all." - @proverbs_31life"I am where thereare no words." -Ramana Maharshi"Examine everything in life & say THIS IS NOTHING,, & what remains is love,,& that is everything..." - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "The great void is subject to destruction, the AJAPA ([mantra repeated mentally] Simran without tongue, Name remembrance which goes on automatically) is also subject to destruction. The region of Unstuck Melody is similarly subject to destruction. Kabir says only those who are lovers of Ram [God] shall not die. They have become forever immortal." - KabirPassages from the Radiance Sutras "Desiring and knowing, Knowing and desiring.Just for a breath,Forget what you want.Forget what you know.Receive the real teaching.""Radiant One, inquire:Before desire arises in me, who am I?Before I know anything, who am I?Seek always the intimate joy Of your original Self,And move through this world in freedom."
