When I heal myself, I bring peace to the world

When we look at the world, we often see many things we wish to change. It’s frustrating to feel so powerless when faced with seemingly irreversible problems - climate change, war, famine. Some of us fight to stand up for the causes we believe in. Others choose to get on with our lives, resigned to the impossibility of making any real difference. Yet there is a way that we can all contribute to transforming the world we live in: by transforming ourselves.

When I change my perception, something incredible happens: the world changes. We really do not realize how powerful we are; our perception creates our reality. If we are always focusing on what we perceive as wrong, on fear and lack and separation, that is what we will see. When we start to focus on appreciation, we become more aware of the incredible gifts life is bringing us in every moment. This does not mean we deny the challenges at hand; it just means we focus on valuing what we have, and by doing so, we bring more love into our lives.

As your consciousness expands, it is natural to become more caring about the environment. When we experience victim consciousness, we feel separate from everyone. We experience lack, and so we try to take as much as we can. But when we perceive union, we experience an abundance, and we naturally begin to value all around us. When our perception changes from us-and-them to one of union, all behaviors based in separation just dissolve. We don’t have to do anything in order for this to happen; only heal ourselves.

Want to make a difference? Change yourself. Want to see more joy, peace and love in the world? Find ways to give more of that in your life. What we focus on grows. Let’s choose for the love.

Thank you so much.You remind me of Mahatma Gandhi's quote "BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD".
I think i'm trying living through this concept.

How true. Healing begins with the self. A matter of attitude too and the right perspective. What you think, is what will happen. The self-fulfilling prophecy!

Great reminder!

Is it so complicated as to need rules and laws? Again the ego deceives. The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle. What is so profound is the simplicity...

oops only have Law number seven to go .
7. The Law of Transmutation.
Enlightenment leading to Evolution. The desire to transmute influences Being. When the six previous Laws are in place at any level, the ability to transition to the next level by evolving the experiences as a whole into consciousness.

having problem posting the rest of the laws recommend you visit www.saveoz.info and print them out.

4. The Law of Forgiveness; A law that is compensatory to right and wrong by genuine detachment from outcome and the emanation of Love at all times. Two wrongs do not make a right. Allows nature to take its course without interference with the process, influences what you put out.

5. The Law of Service; Giving and receiving in balance, without expectation. Influences Outcome.

The Law of Love- (Unconditional) The "Spark of Life", the fire, passion, reproduction. Discernment without judgement. When the previous 5 laws are in place, the ability to unconditionally Love oneself (Self Esteem) Spirit and Soul are in harmony. Influences Service.

permanently healed. What you think is what you create.

3. The Law of Resonance; Also called Law of attraction. Soul Like Magnetism. What you "put out: so you attract to you. Love attracts Love, Anger attracts Anger. As You put out, so You are (or become). You always attract into your life, the experiences of learning that need to be appropriately dealt with, hence it is a mirror. Influences Karma.

This article is very good but I feel the following explanation will assist people in making the change required to understand the process and give us the key.
We are part of creation and creation has 7 natural laws that provide the harmony. These are brief descriptions of each of the Seven foundational Laws of Nature. They are the laws of the creator as distinct from the laws of "God" which are bound to these laws but at a lower level. The Laws of Nature were part of the ethium (space and time0 before there was matter, as matter can only exist of them.
The physical Human Being is made of matter. Our human DNA has these laws "programmed in" and every plant knows exactly how, when and where to grow because of them. ( To enable understanding, substitute the words "light, Quark, Atom, Molecule" or similar in place of the word you.

1. The Law of Freewill; There is divine will ( the resonance of God-force) and there is YOUR WILL (the resonance of your mind). You have "choice" in everything you do; when Divine Will and Your Will are not in harmony, they create the "learning experiences" we often find challenging.

2. The Law of Cause and Effect; Also called karmic law. Everything that happens has an original cause. Every learning experience demands a compensatory one. When you have abused people and or power in a life for example, you will create a life to experience what that abuse is like. Then influences choice. Heal original cause, and the current "dis-ease" will be perm
