At times this journey became so fulfilling that I contemplated the idea of moving with my family to Costa Rica and spend the rest of my life meditating and being as close as possible to nature. On the other hand while writing this blog I debated if I should share with you that at times it also felt like I was dying. I decided that the only thing I have to share is that in order to have an extraordinary life, you must dissolve the illusion of fear.

So if you are wondering why I am writing about this journey, if I don’t want to share all the details? It is because it is NOT important. Drama is humanities’ biggest challenge and in order to dissolve it, we must realize that it is nothing wanting to be something. In order to lift humanity, animals and the planet to its original pattern, we must abandon talking about the drama, contemplating it and believing that it is through contrast that we regain our appreciation for the gift of Life.

As Wallace D. Wattles said, “The moment you permit your mind to dwell with dissatisfaction upon things as they are, you begin to lose ground. You fix attention upon the common, the ordinary, the poor, and the squalid and mean; and your mind takes the the form of these things.”

What’s important to me at this moment is that I have been appointed through my work, Recycling The Human Potential, to bring Truth to the mind of millions for One Love, One Wealth, One World! By doing so I get to continue the evolution of my individual Soul in the most harmonious path, while living an extraordinary life. When Einstein said, “What the mind can conceive, It can achieve.” It is obvious to me that he meant a disciplined mind. Happiness, Prosperity, Fulfillment, it is all possible and equally available to everyone once you discipline your mind. And then you will discover that it is the Life within You, working through You, that has the infinite power to create everything and anything out of Itself. This is the journey of Self Discovery!

My wife Kalyani and I will be speaking about how to Recycle Your Human Potential at the More Life Tour hosted by Suzanne Evans and David Neagle at the Westin San Diego this Saturday, August 21, 2010. (All the Details Here). I would also love to ReConnect with all of you as we travel the nation during our Tour. Check out our new website www.LifestyleoftheRichandConscious.com to learn more about what we are up to and how you can participate in the unfoldment of greater good for everyone involved! 

Experience Your Freedom,

P.S. We are also filming Series One of Lifestyle of the Rich and Conscious while we are on tour, so it’s always good to be prepared with a good hair day… LOL!

Is It Choice or Is It Destiny?

I remember over 21 years ago driving to work in the morning and right before I lit up a marijuana joint I thought, “There is something wrong with this and at one point I am going to have to face it.” I also remember another time having an affair and as I was leaving her apartment I felt shameful and I knew at that moment that somehow I would have to pay the price for my actions. More recent I remember having to say good night to my children on the phone and I knew at that point that no amount of money was worth missing out on the things I value most in life. The truth is that since I have learned to love and forgive myself, I can probably go on forever, remembering time after time, stories of how at one point in my life I had enough clarity to recognize that I was drifting away from the path, but not necessarily doing anything about it at that particular moment!

But the question is… Was I really choosing to drift away from the path, or was it ALL part of a bigger plan that would eventually lead me to my destiny? Even up to this point, I honestly don’t have the answer to that question. I could tell you that many times while reflecting in silence it is evident to me that everything I have ever gone through has been preparing me for the role that I am now playing. Not only that, it is because of all these experiences that I have become the most magnificent version of me today. I think it is relevant to mention that I have grown the most during the hardest times of the journey, so there must be a reason for the challenges we encounter along the way!

I know that if I google this question, (Is It Choice or Is It Destiny?), I would probably get many answers. But the question is… Do I want someone else’s answers and beliefs or do I want my own? Through my meditation practice I am understanding that our human experience can lead us to believe in many illusions, but Spiritually we always remain as perfect as the Laws of Nature and as Beautiful as the blooming of roses during Spring! This is crucial to me because it means that at any point no matter how far I may drift, I can reconnect with my True Self and find the most harmonious and fulfilling way to the evolution of my individual Soul.

As a Transformational Life Coach I often talk to and witness many people who are struggling with situations, circumstances and conditions that are robbing them from the opportunity to experience how magnificent God’s Creation truly is, them included, but unfortunately do nothing about it. Although I have been blessed to see and hear about others who have transformed their lives, I often wonder if there is any way we could change the statistics and significantly increase the amount of people changing their lives and consequently changing the world! Or Maybe I just need to continue expanding my awareness and TRUST that Infinite Intelligence has a Divine Purpose for everything!

After searching for so long for things outside of myself to make me happy and fulfilled, I have found that Infinite Source is really within ME and YOU and there is a part of me that wants everybody else to experience how awesome it is living life this way. Perhaps is because now that I have overcome these obstacles I find myself completely in LOVE with the Divine Presence flowing through everything and everyone. Or maybe it’s just that since I have dissolved the illusion of separation I know that I am ONE with all the Love, Joy, Beauty, Abundance and Harmony in the Universe and therefore I can’t help but to want to release this energy as the most important piece as to why my life ROCKS! So, what about your life… can you choose your destiny? Let me know! I love to learn from you…

Love and appreciation,

Latino, You Are Who You Are!

I am convinced that even if I spend another 47 years expanding my awareness starting from where I am now, I would only be scratching the surface of my inherent unlimited potential. I am also quite aware that the world around me hasn’t changed, but it is my inner transformation that has allowed me to create my own reality and see the physical world completely different than what it used to be. Have you ever wondered why me? For years I felt like I was so different than members of my own family, friends and other people that were Latinos like me. I was trapped in the middle of my own inner war because a part of me felt proud for growing up with certain values and interests and another part of me didn’t agree at all with some of the beliefs and misconceptions around me. Among other things, there were too many unanswered questions regarding religion and no one dared to step out of the imaginary boxes within the human mind.

I can’t even begin to explain the invigorating joy that flows through me in every moment because I no longer choose to let ignorance and illusions give form to my reality. By mastering the mental faculties available to me, I have created an awesome life in which the next moment is always pregnant with even greater experiences.

But it was not always like this. For many years I was suffering from self imposed fears and insecurities about who I was and where do I fit. You see at the age of 2 my parents decided to move back to their home, Puerto Rico, and I spent the next 16 years absorbing the energy that became the foundation of my reality. Right after my sophmore year my parents moved to California and I spent my senior year in high school not only struggling with learning a new language and culture, but also fighting the desire to grow and embrace the world I was exposed to, yet debating if by doing so I would loose who I thought I was. For the next 10 years I struggled even more with this dilemma and I used things like alcohol, drugs and sex as a way to hide and survive. I was fighting unseen demons, but they seemed so real to me then.

Like all of us I have a story, and perhaps in the book that I am writing (Latino You Are Who You Are) I will get into more details, but for now I want to speak to the 38.8 million Latinos in the USA that could use my experiences as a spring board for the next step they are about to take. No matter what you think, feel, or do with your life, you will ALWAYS be who you are. So if you are Latino, be grateful for what it offers you, but don’t be afraid to change and become a greater expression of God just because unconsciously you don’t want to betray your roots. As a matter of fact, you would benefit tremendously from evaluating the impact that your up-bringing is having on every decision you make. Like my mother would say, “No votes el muchacho con la placenta.” Celebrate the gifts and blessings and let go of the misconceptions and limitations.

Beliefs around religion, alcohol, addictions, male privilege, nutrition, parenting, competition, work, digression of women by sexualizing them, acts of violence against humanity and animals, just to name a few of the unconscious behavioral patterns that were blocking the flow of God Consciousness flowing through me in all my affairs and consequently were robbing me of my own true happiness. I am not more or less Latino than anybody else just because for the last 20 years I have become a different version of me. You see it doesn’t matter how much money you make, your reputation, (el que diran la gente), how popular you think you are, or anything else. How successfully happy you are is a direct result of the awareness, understanding and application around the realization that You are Who You are because you were created in God’s image.

Hasta la proxima vez, “Los Cambios Son Necesarios, Pero No Tienes Que Dejar De Ser Quien Tu Eres”
