Spiritual Awakening: Signs, Signs, Everywhere A Sign!!!!
This post was inspired by a song from Five Man Electrical Band tittled Signs. As I listened to the the lyrics and really focused in I began to ask how many times have we missed signs or have we not acted upon the signs that being put infront of us. Is it no wonder that many struggle as they obliviously go through life not seeing nor understanding the signs? Have you ever received what you thought was a sign and then sat quietly asking the universe what it meant and listened for an answer? There are signs all around us delivering messages to us and the more intune with the signs that we become the more fruitful our lives become as we begin to take action in an effective and efficient manner.
Spiritual Awakening:People to Help You Understand The Signs
Satya Kalra, a founder of Path to Anandam is popularly known for her Anandam life style (Blissful Living). Satya’s mission in life is to live in love, peace and Anandam and spread the same to others by leading, practicing and propagating spiritual living and helping others to become more self-dependent and self-reliant, specially destitute women and children.
I had the privilige of interviewing Satya on 1/14/13 on my radio program at www.blogtalkradio.com/hrafnstongradio, you can hear it in the archives. After the show she called me directly and we had a very nice conversation about how we can be of service and value to one another. This all came to fruition because of the sign that I received to reach out for guests for my radio show, By becoming an action taker I was able to make a connection and follow the signs to continue my awakening.
I have had the honor and pleasure to meet Bert Oliva and interview him on my radio show, Get Motivated With Jonathan JDOGG Lederman, which is heard at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyradio1 on Monday from 7-8 PM EDT. On my show we spoke about power and finding your power source and Bert broke down the word Power into the following acronyn.
P= Passion, which when broken down is Pass I On meaning to pass yourself on and to use your knowledge to help others achieve their goals and objectives.
O= Opportunity, Look for the opportunities that are available for you to step into your power and to positively impact the lives of others remember that by helping others get what they want you will get what you want.
W= Wealth most want it but don’t know how to obtain it. One way is to pay yourself first. For example each time you earn money take 10% and put it to the me fund. Then pay your bills and meet your obligations.
E= Education, though you may have ended your formal education it is very important to educate yourself and invest inyourself be it through books, seminars, or other avenues the more you learn the more you will earn.
R= Real, be your authentic self don’t be afraid to let the world know about your flaws and how you have overcome them.let people know who you truly are. Define yourself by not letting others define you.
Most of our power comes from our heart. From the moment we are conceived we begin to develop our inate intelligence and as we develop in the womb the brain is formed first and then the spinal cord and then all the other human elements. We come out and are immediately spanked to show that we are awake. Then something happens all the power we had in the womb is usurped as we become dependent on the outside world. We begin to explore and as we grow we learn to crawl, then we learn to walk and then we start to run. We begin to formulate our beliefs and many times we give our power away. Then one day we discover that all the power we need lies with us and we begin to discover our power source. We begin to tear down all the limiting beliefs that have held us back. Like the scene from Network we run to the window and we shout as loud as we can that I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore. It is at that moment we discover our power source.
Spiritual Awakening: Ways to Discover Your Power Source
1: Stop listening to those who doubt you– I remember having on teacher tell me I would be lucky to amount to anything and another that wrote in my year book To a young man with a lot of potential if he would only use it. In 1988 I was reunited with both as I was substituting at the middle school where they both taught and that I had attended. I went up to the one who doubted me and introduced myself and said How Are you Liking me Now. I walkedup to the other and thanked him. BY letting go of the doubters and listening to the encouragers I am finding success.
2: Surround yourself with those that lift you up and inspire you– I recomend a brag wall at your home or strategically placed items that can set the tome for a positive limitless mind set. At my home I have many photos and quotes that inspire me. I look at them everyday and thus set the positive attitude in motion.
3: Stop and just breathe- Many times take a deep breath and evaluate the situation.
4: Meditate- Find a quiet spot wherever you may be and clear your mind and let the messages flow in and out and ask your higher self for guidance and direction.
5; Believe that greatness is your birthright- remind yourself that you are great and that greatness is something you deserve.

An example of Spirituality and Stepping Into Your Power
I am often asked JDOGG when did you realize that spirituality meant stepping into your power. My answer is I have been steeping into my power and honing my spirituality all my life. Some examples include:
