It’s taken me almost a week to come to terms with the passing of Wayne Dyer, one of the early voices and one of the most consistent and persistent guides on our journey to personal wholeness and spiritual understanding.
In an interview with Oprah in 2011 he spoke about being open to the things we know little about, how anything is possible, we only have to remember that anything is possible.
He taught me some new ideas, put into words insights I could not yet articulate and confirmed what I knew in a language that I could understand.
In an interview for Spirituality and Health magazine he said; “Inspiration is when an idea gets a hold of you, and it takes you where you were intended to go, from the first moment of your conception and all of infinity.”
When I gave my practice the name, ‘The Inspired Living Center,’ it was with the intention of focusing our attention on the eternal wellspring that guides and supplies us.We are all internally guided, sourced, fed, and instructed by a deeper presence.It is that voice which will take us to where we are supposed to go, supply us with what we need for what we are here to do, love us completely and exuberantly and open our hearts so that we might shine the light of that love to others with our words, loving thoughts and caring behaviors.
All we need do is ‘listen’.
Wayne was prolific and in this same interview he expressed to Oprah that he knew he had much to do and say, and that it was important he get it out, now. He was focused on sharing what he knew with us. The words from this great soul will live on with us for eternity
Here are some more of his best quotes:
“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
“How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.”
“When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.”
“Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it’s always your choice.”
“Conflict cannot survive without your participation.”
“You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.”
“The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don’t know anything about.”
“When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way.”
“Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.”
“Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.”
Thank you for listening.
