Something Positive is the story of a young man who traveled to Panama for one month with only the clothes on his back and his passport. He found people everywhere willing to help him out with food, shelter, work, transportation, and photography. He wants to tell everyone that the world is a friendly place!

Today’s discussion covers:

  • why some newly-awakened spiritual seekers can feel guilty when they first become aware of the suffering in the rest of the world
  • some people wonder how there can be a benevolent God when there is so much pain in the world
  • how higher consciousness (Galaxy view) can transcend the polarity of this world
  • why you should not compare your path with others
  • that you can still have abundant joy and love even in the midst of suffering
  • why you should face the world with open eyes and heart, without fear, and bring as much love as possible
  • if you focus on light and love you will find it wherever you go
  • God is in everything – there is no place that is without God
  • the “Sunrise Practice”: watch the sun rise every morning and recognize that you are surrounded by light and love, always!
