Buddhist Life in America by Joan Halifax

This story is an example of how we can correct the paths of our journey without continuing on in our self-sabotaging, wicked, divisive demeanor that lives in our flesh and spoils our spirit. With each generation there are those who try to live their lives according to their own purposes, not realizing that there is a greater picture. When you surrender to the Higher Power within you, you can do no wrong. One must first identify the Higher Power and know that the power is that of the The King of Kings, The Alpha and the Omega, The Beginning and the End, The Right one. He saw her through, forgave her wrong-doings and started her on her way to success. You too can be forgiven of all your offenses. The Master's Pottery Wheel is spinning you to perfection. Allow it to be so. Be still and know that someone's got your back, everything is seen and accounted for, and the Law of Reciprocity will prevail. Angels are watching over you and they fight your battles for you because you are Royalty. You are Majestic. You are loved beyond measure. Even though your enemies may wish you harm, it just will not happen because you are the King's Kid. Your eyes shall see and your ears shall hear your desire upon all enemies of your existence. Enjoy your reading and know that there is more in the depths of this foundation.
