Download or read book Simple Brilliance written by Raymond Powers and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EXCERPTS FROM: SIMPLE BRILLIANCE: REDISCOVERING OUR NATURAL GENIUSThere is a state of remembering that brings us back to the full self-expression and conscious enthusiasm we had as a child; those very activities and resources that magnetized our attention. There is no one way to freedom and there are many ways that we prevent ourselves from fully living our purposeful vision. We must first learn to cultivate trust in Life itself and then in ourselves and finally with others. Cultivating Simple Brilliance catalyzes a life of unexpected joy and opportunity beyond what we ever thought possible; a Life that fully realizes and expresses our capabilities.The Way of the Open Heart is essential in living a life of authenticity, of health, of emotional equilibrium, of creativity, of active imagination, of knowing that we are the determiners of our life in relation and co-creating with the great Mystery of what it means to be alive at this time, in this place. Until one embodies these principles, it is simply a concept and very easy to dismiss as frivolous beliefs or non-essential. As with many things, The Way of the Open Heart takes practice, discipline, and certainly an awareness in our ability to respond to the circumstances that challenge us most. It is easy to live with an Open Heart when at peace, when in control and calm, yet at the difficult crossroads of life, when tensions arise, when relations are strained, this is when we are called forth into our greatness to walk with gracefulness, to live with gratitude and to fully accept, humbly, our bumbling awkward state of humanity. TESTIMONIAL: Simple Brilliance: Rediscovering Your Natural Genius by Raymond Powers is by far one of the most enlightened books I have read. Using integrated wisdom from compelling personal experience and meditative and practical exercises, he addresses complex issues such: sexuality; wholeness; finding the jewels within our shadow; and love devoid of myth, story, and history. His simple prescription for "living the way of the open heart" is breath, sound, and movement, which is explained in simple yet brilliantly creative terms. If you buy one book this year, make this your choice if you'd like to live a life of greater freedom, joy and love. Patrick J.
