Rule 18

“ If you want to change the way others treat you, you should first change the way you treat yourself. Unless you learn to love yourself, fully and sincerely, there is no way you can be loved. Once you achieve that stage, however, be thankful for every thorn that others might throw at you. It is a sign that you will soon be showered in roses. “*

Today, we are releasing SELF-PITY and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of SELF-PITY. 

“It is his/her fault!” “I can’t help it!” “There is nothing I can do about it.” These words speak of victimization and self-pity. They also speak of separation and lack of understanding of ourselves as Divine Beings.
Something may have happened  during our childhood that made us believe that we are helpless and that resulted in self-pity. 
However, the Truth is that we are Divine Being. A spark of God with all is power reside within us. We are powerful beings. As we affirm our Oneness and tune in with the Divine Power, we free ourselves from the chains of this limiting belief. Shortly, we will discover the courage and power to take responsibility for our choices and for our life.  —Rev. Norma Iris Rosado and Rev Kudlik

We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: I am worthy of love and respect. I celebrate my uniqueness.I am enough just the way I am.

Rule No18 invites us today to realise that what we want from others must start with us. What we cannot give to ourselves, we cannot receive from others because we are simply blind for them. 

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule, the text above, and the quote below. In your meditation,  I would like you to confront any limiting beliefs and thoughts about your Power. Connect with the Divine Presence and allow God’s Loving embrace you and empower you. 

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release self-pity.

Daily quotes:

God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline.—2 Timothy 1:7

Note : *My writing is based on the book “40 Rules of Love” by by Elif Shafak and The Lent booklet by Unity.org 

Personally, I think it is important to find the True meaning behind the word ‘LOVE’,  understand it and experience it as a Spiritual Quality inherently within us. 

I am going to walk this 40-day Lenten journey contemplating on the True meaning of Love, Divine Love, Spiritual Love for me by experimenting with the 40 rules and quotes from the Lent Booklet. Every day, between 

the 5th of March to the 21 April 2025,

I will post a ‘rule’ from the book ’40 rules of Love’ and an a release idea from the book ’40 days of Rebirth and Renewal – Lent 2025′ by Unity.org. Then, we will contemplate on it and share about it in the UNITY EUROPE Facebook Group (CLICK HERE).

Rule 17

“The whole universe is contained within a single human being — you. Everything that you see around, including the things that you might not be fond of and even the people you despise or abhor, is present within you in varying degrees. Therefore, do not look for Sheitan [“Devil” in Arabic] outside yourself, either. The devil is not an extraordinary force that attacks from without. It is an ordinary voice within, if you set to know yourself fully, facing with honesty and hardness. “*

Today, we are releasing NEGATIVITY and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of NEGATIVITY. 

Some days negative thoughts seem to overwhelm me. I find myself judging, replaying past mistakes, and getting lost in negative self-talk. I get caught up in the negativity around me and lose sight of what truly matters.
But when I pause and close my eyes, I remember that I can choose to shift my focus. I go within, focus on my breath, and listen to the still, small voice that reminds me all is well. With each inhale and exhale, I reconnect with the peace of God.
As I sit in the Silence, I watch my negative thoughts drift away like passing clouds. I open my eyes to the smile of a loved one, the kindness of a stranger, or a gorgeous sunset. I begin to cherish the limitless beauty in my world. —Sara Crawford

We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: I release negative thoughts and embrace peace within.

Rule No17 invite us today to realise, that all that we consider evil actually exists within us.

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule, the text above, and the quote below. In your meditation,  I would like you to contemplate on your personal evil. What are those (limiting) thoughts that generate anger or fear in you. Release them into God’s Loving, into the Oneness. 

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release NEGATIVITY.

Rule 16

“Real filth is the one inside. The rest simply washes off. There is only one type of dirt that cannot be cleansed with pure waters, and that is the stain of hatred and bigotry contaminating the soul. You can purify your body through abstinence and fasting, but only love will purify your heart. “*

Today, we are releasing BITTERNESS and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of BITTERNESS. 

We all carry situations, people, and experiences that negatively impacted our lives. Things done or not done, said or not said, events that we continue to relive may be painful touchstones that reinforce and legitimize our bitterness and resentment.

Sadly, that bitterness is corrosive to our own soul and no one else’s. It eats away at our sense of well-being, joy, and happiness. It impedes our capacity to heal and move forward. It keeps us mired in the past and allows that situation to dictate our future.

You can release bitterness and reclaim your future. When the past is more alive than the present, focus on one blessing in your life right now. Meditate and center in love. Cultivate gratitude and present-moment awareness. Practice affirmative prayer and shift your focus from what wronged you to what supports you. Moment by moment, you can consciously reinforce and legitimize the good in your life. —Rev. DeeAnn Weir Morency

We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: I release bitterness and embrace the love and support all around me.

Rule No16, as well as todays Lent reading, invite us today to realise how devastating it is for us to harbour negative emotions in our hearts and minds. 

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule, the text above, and the quote below. In your meditation,  I would like you to observe your ‘dirty’ emotions and cleanse your mind and heart of them. Allow the emotions to release and take the unwholesome energies with them into the Light. 

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release bitterness.

Daily quotes:

Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander, together with all malice, and be kind to one another.—Ephesians 4:31-32

Rule 15

“It’s easy to love a perfect God, unblemished and infallible that He is. What is far more difficult is to love fellow human beings with all their imperfections and defects. Remember, one can only know what one is capable of loving. There is no wisdom without love. Unless we learn to love God’s creation, we can neither truly love nor truly know God.  “*

Today, we are releasing WORRY and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of WORRY. 

Letting go of worry by changing the stories we tell ourselves requires a conscious effort to flip the script and reframe our internal dialogue.

Worry thrives when we focus on negative possibilities—imagining future failures or difficulties that may never happen. These mental scripts create a cycle of worry where we begin to believe that worst-case scenarios are inevitable.

However, by recognizing that these stories are just that—stories—we gain the power to release them. Instead of seeing challenges as threats, we can view them as opportunities for growth and learning. This shift doesn’t ignore reality;
it empowers us to approach situations with curiosity and resilience rather than fear.

By deliberately refocusing on what could go right, we open ourselves to positive outcomes. By envisioning success, fulfillment, and strength, we change the tone of our inner narrative from worry to resilience, which directly influences how we experience the world. — Rev. Kathy Beasley

We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: I allow myself to trust in God and feel peace. I release all worry, trusting that everything is unfolding for my highest good.

Rule No15 invites us today to see God in everyone; see the spark of good and Loving in everyone regardless of they way they appear. It is not small feat.

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule, the text above, and the quote below. I would like to invite you to meditate today and allow your worries to dissipate. Connect in the silence with the Divine Presence, offer up all your worrying thoughts and ideas, then allow the Loving energy emanating from God to evaporate them. 

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release worry.

Daily quotes:

Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. — Philippians 4:6

Rule 14

“God is busy with the completion of your work, both outwardly and inwardly. He is fully occupied with you. Every human being is a work in progress that is slowly but inexorably moving toward realization. We are each an unfinished work of art both waiting and striving to be completed. God deals with each of us separately because humanity is a fine art of skilled penmanship where every single dot is equally important for the entire picture.“*

Today, we are releasing APATHY and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of APATHY. 

To overcome apathy in our lives, we turn our attention to a friend or loved one who is experiencing a challenge. Then something wonderful happens. Our light-filled, compassionate thought and heartfelt concern for others burns away the fog of
apathy in our lives. Clearly seeing the good God has for us, we renew our enthusiasm for life, remember forgotten goals, and discover new pathways for joyous living. —Rev. Ric Schumacher

We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: I embrace the light of Truth; I clearly seethe good God has for me.

Rule No14 invites us today to see that we are all on an inner journey whether we realise it or not. From both to death, we are learning through challenges and happy moments about our true nature that is of the Divine.

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule, the text above, and the quote below. I would like to invite you to connect with the Divine presence in meditation. As you connect with this ever present energy of Loving, look at the triumphs and challenges of your life. See how all that mounted to the person you are today. Be grateful.

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release apathy.

A Tizenharmadik szabály

“Ahelyett, hogy ellenállnál az új dolgoknak, amelyeket az élet helyezett eléd, add át magad az élet sodrásának. Hagyd, hogy az élet magával sodorjon! Ne aggódj amiatt, hogy felborul a megszokott rend körülötted, feje tetejére állt az egész életed. Honnét tudod, hogy nem lesz jobb az életed fejjel lefelé?“* 

A szabályt meg tudod hallgatni a YOUTUBE-on, ha ráklikkelsz a képre:

Ma elengedjük aggodalmainkat és helyette, magunkhoz öleljük az Isteni Szeretetteljességet.

A Böjti Munkafüzet ma arra invitál bennünket, hogy engedjük el az aggódást.

Az aggodalom, nem más mint a bizonytalanságból adódó félelem, amelyek mögött múlt béli traumák húzódhatnak meg. A végeredmény, hogy félünk szembenézni a félelemmel. 

Abban a pillantban, azonban, amikor mégis megtesszük ezt – hagyjuk, hogy a félelem érzete a tudatunkba kerüljön – valójában felszabadítjuk magunkat alólla, azzal, hogy útjára engedjük félelmeinket. 

A félelem megélésének pillanata kényelmetlen lehet, de gyakorlattal a kényelmetlenség érzet megszűnik. Nem kell mást tennünk mint ‘keresztül lélegeznünk’ a félelmeinken. Amint a lélegzetünkre koncentrálunk és a figyelmünket befelé fordítjuk, kapcsolatba kerülünk önmagunkkal és a bennünk élő nyugalommal. Amint végig haladunk a félelem és aggodalom érzetünkön, egyszer csak nyugalomra lelünk és megérezzük, hogy a bennünk élő szeretetteljesség végig velünk volt az úton.  

Ma azzal vonjuk szeretetteljes ölelésbe önmagunkat, hogy az alábbi mondatra emlékeztetjük magunkat a nap folyamán: “Megengedem magnak, hogy bízzak önmagamban és a bennem élő isteni szeretet energiában.“ 

A tizenharmadik szabály arra emlékeztet, hogy merjünk élni és menni az árral. Az élet csodái gyakran az ismeretlen felfedezésével válik láthatóvá. Azzal, ha ellenállunk az életnek és kontrolálni próbáljuk azt, lehet lemaradunk tartalmas és szép élményekről.

Ma használjuk a meditációs időnket arra, hogy kapcsolódunk a bennünk élő szeretetteljességhez é mályítjük az azzal való kapcsolatunkat. Építsünk ki egy bizalmas kapcsolatot ezzel az energiaval, mely életünk minden napján kisér bennünket utunkon.

A napi elgondolkodtató egy rövid meditáció formájában: ma találjunk magunknak egy kellemes 5 perces meditációs zenét, amely segit a békesség érzetet megélnünk és kapcsolódnunk a bennünk élő szeretet energiához. 

Ma szeretnélek megkérni, hogy tölts egy kis időt a fenti gondolatokkal, hallgasd meg a YOUTUBE-on a  szabályt egy párszor, hogy értelmet nyerhessen számodra, valamint hallgasd meg a fenti meditációt.  

Napi idézetek:

Ösztönszerűleg inkább hajlunk a reményre, mint az aggodalomra – amint szemeink is maguktól a világosság felé fordulnak, nem a sötétség felé. Arthur Schopenhauer

Ma megerősítem magamban: “Elengedem a félelem és aggodalom minden formáját. 

Megjegyzés : *Minden, amit írtam Elif Shafak: A szerelem 40 szabálya című könyvön valamint a UNITY.org által kiadott LENT BOOKLET-en alapszik..  Unity.org 

Azt érzem, hogy nagyon fontos megtalálni a SZERETET szó valós jelentését önmagunk számára. És nem csupán megérteni, de megtapasztalni is azt a SZERETET élményt, amely születésünktől fogva ott él bennünk.  

Úgy döntöttem, hogy a böjti időszak alatt megkereset a Szeretet szó tényleges jelentését, a spirituális és isteni jelentését. 

Szóval, ez évben is végig járom a 40 napos bőjti szellemi útat, azon mélázva, hogy mit jelent igazán a Szeretet, főként az Isteni vagy Spirituális Szeretet, azáltal, hogy gyakorlatba ültetem a Szeretet 40 Szabályát* és a UNITY által kiadott LENT BOOKLET-et használva, minden nap

2025. márcus 5 és április 21 között!

Járjuk együtt ez a Böjti Utat!

Rule 13

“Try not to resist the changes, which come your way. Instead let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?”*

Today, we are releasing anxiety and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of anxiety. 

Anxiety is a feeling of fear, often caused by uncertainty, sometimes triggered by a traumatic moment in our lives, by fearful thoughts, or by those emotions we do not want to face or feel.

By acknowledging anxiety and the emotions tied to it, you give yourself the space to fully experience it, allowing it to pass through you instead of becoming trapped within.

Although the process may feel uncomfortable at first, as you practice it and focus on your breathing, you’ll notice a profound sense of calm, like the rhythm of the waves of the sea. You will free yourself, and peace will return to you as you remember that God is with you in every moment and in every experience of your life. —Rev. Claudia Olmos

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I allow myself to trust in God and feel peace.”

Rule No13 invites us today to summon courage and dare to walk with change. It is time to release our expectations how our life should unfold and allow Life carry us along.

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule and the quote below. I would like to invite you to do the exercise detailed above.  I would also like to ask you to look at where you resist life and try to control it. In your daily meditation, allow yourself the mystery of the journey so you can be surprised, amazed and astounded! 🙂

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release anxiety.

Daily quotes:

I hereby command you: Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.—Joshua 1:9

A Tizenkettedik szabály

“A világon több hodzsa, hodzsa es sejk van, mint ahány csillag az égen. Az igazi mester arra tanít, hogy a lelkedbe nézve önmagadon átlépve felfedezd a benned rejlő szépségeket és nem arra, hogy őt csodáld.“* 

A szabályt meg tudod hallgatni a YOUTUBE-on, ha ráklikkelsz a képre:

Ma elengedjük a ellenállásunkat és helyette, magunkhoz öleljük az Isteni Szeretetteljességet.

A Böjti Munkafüzet ma arra invitál bennünket, hogy engedjük el az ellenállást.

Amikor valami zavar bennünket, általában, automatikusan próbáljuk eltolni magunktól a kényelmetlen érzéseket. Ez azonban egy csapda: Aminek ellenállunk csak megerősítjük. Az energia, amit abba fektetünk, hogy megpróbáljük elkerülni a zavart okozó tényezőket, a zavarba koncentrálódik majd, egyre jobban erősítve azt. 

Ez évben a böjti időszakot arra, használom, hogy megváltoztassam a hozzáállásomat ezekhez a zavaró tényezökhöz, és menekülés helyett a fejlődést  lehetőségét választom. Megkérdezem magamtól “Hogyan tudnám, ezt az előttem álló akadályt vagy zavaró tényezőt a hasznomra fordítani?” Ahelyett, hogy meghátrálok, hitet merítek, és az isteni szeretetteljességbe helyezem bizalmamat. Tudom, hogy a végén minden az előnyömre fog válni. 

Ezzel a hozzáállással minden energiámat olyan dolgokba fektetem, amelyek előnyömre válnak. Tudom, hogy ez a folyamat lassú és kihívásokkal teli, de tudom, megéri az erőfeszítéseimet. —Trish Yancey, LUT, CSE és Rev. Kudlik

Ma azzal vonjuk szeretetteljes ölelésbe önmagunkat, hogy az alábbi mondatra emlékeztetjük magunkat a nap folyamán: “Bizalmamat benső erőmbe és az isteni szeretetteljességbe helyezem és így könnyedén részt veszek minden történésben, amit az élet elém sodor. “ 

A tizenkettedik szabály arra emlékeztet, hogy vegyük észre, ki az aki feltétel nélkül támogat bennünket spirituális és szellemi utunkon, és ki az, aki saját hiúságát akarja legyezni azzal, hogy másokat támogat. 

Ma használjuk a meditációs időnket arra, hogy elgondolkodunk azon, hogy mik azok a dolgok amelyektől meghátrálunk. Dolgozzunk ma azon, hogy belső erőnket és az isteni energiába fektetett bizalmunkat erősítjük.

A napi elgondolkodtató egy rövid meditáció formájában:

Ma szeretnélek megkérni, hogy tölts egy kis időt a fenti gondolatokkal, hallgasd meg a YOUTUBE-on a  szabályt egy párszor, hogy értelmet nyerhessen számodra, valamint hallgasd meg a fenti meditációt.  

Napi idézetek:

Mert lesz idő, amikor az egészséges tanítást nem viselik el, hanem saját kívánságaik szerint gyűjtenek maguknak tanítókat, mert viszket a fülük. Az igazságtól elfordítják a fülüket, de a mondákhoz odafordulnak. 2 Timóteus 4:3-4

Ma megerősítem magamban: “Elengedek minden ellenállást.

Rule 12

“There are more fake gurus and false teachers in this world than the number of stars in the visible universe. Don’t confuse power-driven, self-centered people with true mentors. A genuine spiritual master will not direct your attention to himself or herself and will not expect absolute obedience or utter admiration from you, but instead will help you to appreciate and admire your inner self. True mentors are as transparent as glass. They let the light of God pass through them. “*

Today, we are releasing resistance and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of resistance. 

When something disturbs us, we usually want to push it away as hard and fast as we can. Here’s the catch:  What we resist not only persists, but our avoidance feeds what we don’t want and gives it more power.

This Lenten season, I purposefully create a new relationship with my fight-or-flight reflex. It signals that an opportunity for growth has arrived. I ask myself, How do I make this thing before me be for me? Instead of backing away, I lean in with my faith firmly rooted in Source, anticipating the good to come.

In this new paradigm, I give my power only to things I want to see grow in my life. Though I know that forging this new relationship with discomfort will take time and practice, I trust the rewards are rich. —Trish Yancey, LUT, CSE

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I lean in with faith and embrace whatever life brings my way.”

Rule No12 invites us today to look for a mentor.  You want gently, loving guidance from someone who truly cares about you unconditionally. Gurus tend to be either self-centered or out of touch with human relationships. A true spiritual guide or master will want you to be free and create your own personal relationship with the Divine. 

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule and the quote below.  I would like to ask you to have a look at where you give your power away to false masters of any kind. Do you think that there is someone who knows the answers to your questions better than you? Think again! Then move into meditation and embrace STRENGTH, a Divine faculty within you that enables you to find your own answers, on your own terms and move through any challenges or barriers. 

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release resistance.

Daily quotes:

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.—Isaiah 43:2

For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 

Note : *My writing is based on the book “40 Rules of Love” by by Elif Shafak and The Lent booklet by Unity.org 

Personally, I think it is important to find the True meaning behind the word ‘LOVE’,  understand it and experience it as a Spiritual Quality inherently within us. 

I am going to walk this 40-day Lenten journey contemplating on the True meaning of Love, Divine Love, Spiritual Love for me by experimenting with the 40 rules and quotes from the Lent Booklet. Every day, between 

the 5th of March to the 21 April 2025,

I will post a ‘rule’ from the book ’40 rules of Love’ and an a release idea from the book ’40 days of Rebirth and Renewal – Lent 2025′ by Unity.org. Then, we will contemplate on it and share about it in the UNITY EUROPE Facebook Group (CLICK HERE).

A Tizenegyedik szabály

“A bába tudja, hogy vajúdás nélkül nem lehet szülni, anélkül nem nyílik meg az anya mélyből kifelé vezető út a csecsemő előtt. Ahhoz hogy újjászülethess és vadonatúj ember váljék belőled fel kell készülnöd a nehézségekre és a fájdalmakra.“* 

A szabályt meg tudod hallgatni a YOUTUBE-on, ha ráklikkelsz a képre:

Ma elengedjük a betegségektől való félelmünket és helyette, magunkhoz öleljük az Isteni Szeretetteljességet.

A Böjti Munkafüzet ma arra invitál bennünket, hogy engedjük el a betegségektől való félelmünket.

Van egy mondás ami szerint “azt vonzzuk, amire a legtöbbet gondolunk“. Amikor gondolatainkat félelmek uralják, a megtapasztalásaink is tele lesznek félelemmel. Amikor elménk betegségektől való félelemmel van tele, egészséggel kapcsolatos félelmeket eredményező élményeket vonzunk be. A jó hír az, hogy van választásunk abban, hogy hogyan reagáljuk. Először a felett, hogy mit gondoljuk, másodszor abban, hogy hogyan kezeljünk kihivásokkal teli helyzeteket. 

Myrtle Fillmore-nál, a UNITY Spirituális Szervezet egyik alapítójánál, rákos betegséget diagnosztizáltak és hat hónapot jósoltak neki. Sikerült meggyógyítania magát azzal, hogy a gondolatait a betegség helyett az egészségre és az isteni energiával való egységre koncentrálta. 

UNITY azt tanítja, hogy magunk hozzuk létre a valóságunkat, azáltal ahogyan gondolkodunk. Minden élethelyzet egy lehetőség arra, hogy egyre feljebb emeljük a tudatunkat, az isteni szeretetteljességgel való egységbe, ahol teljesség élményben van részünk.  —Rev. Sandra Campbell és Rev. Kudlik

Ma azzal vonjuk szeretetteljes ölelésbe önmagunkat, hogy az alábbi mondatra emlékeztetjük magunkat a nap folyamán: “Elengedem a betegségektől való félelmeimet és az isteni szeretetteljességben élő teljesség élményét választom. Egészséges vagyok tesben, lélekben és szellemben. “ 

A tizenegyedik szabály arra emlékeztet, hogy a fájdalom az élet velejárója. Nincsen tartalmas élet fájdalmak és veszteségek nélkül. A bölcs azt is tudja, hogy a fájdalmak segítenek bennünket ahhoz, hogy új utakat keressünk és fejlődjünk.

Ma használjuk a meditációs időnket arra, hogy elgondolkodunk azon, hogy a fájdalomtól való félelmeink illetve a betegségektől való félelemink hogyan akadályoznak meg abban, hogy mélyebb és tartalmasabb életet tudjunk élni.

A napi elgondolkodtató egy rövid meditáció formájában:

Ma szeretnélek megkérni, hogy tölts egy kis időt a fenti gondolatokkal, hallgasd meg a YOUTUBE-on a  szabályt egy párszor, hogy értelmet nyerhessen számodra, valamint hallgasd meg a fenti meditációt.  

Napi idézetek:

Minden egyes reggel, amikor felébredünk, választanunk kell a remény és a félelem között, s az egyik érzésnek ott kell lennie valamennyi tettünkben. Örömmel fogadjuk azt, ami az utunkba kerül? Vagy gyanakvással? Karen Marie Moning

Ma megerősítem magamban: “Hajlandó vagyok elengedni a betegségektől való félelmemet”. 

Megjegyzés : *Minden, amit írtam Elif Shafak: A szerelem 40 szabálya című könyvön valamint a UNITY.org által kiadott LENT BOOKLET-en alapszik..  Unity.org 

Azt érzem, hogy nagyon fontos megtalálni a SZERETET szó valós jelentését önmagunk számára. És nem csupán megérteni, de megtapasztalni is azt a SZERETET élményt, amely születésünktől fogva ott él bennünk.  

Úgy döntöttem, hogy a böjti időszak alatt megkereset a Szeretet szó tényleges jelentését, a spirituális és isteni jelentését. 

Szóval, ez évben is végig járom a 40 napos bőjti szellemi útat, azon mélázva, hogy mit jelent igazán a Szeretet, főként az Isteni vagy Spirituális Szeretet, azáltal, hogy gyakorlatba ültetem a Szeretet 40 Szabályát* és a UNITY által kiadott LENT BOOKLET-et használva, minden nap

2025. márcus 5 és április 21 között!

Járjuk együtt ez a Böjti Utat!

Rule 11

“The midwife knows that when there is no pain, the way for the baby cannot be opened and the mother cannot give birth. Likewise, for a new self to be born, hardship is necessary. Just as clay needs to go through intense heat to become strong, Love can only be perfected in pain. “*

Today, we are releasing fear of illness and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of fear of illness. 

There is a saying: What we think about, we bring about. When we think fearful thoughts, we bring about fearful experiences. The good news is, we have the power to choose our reaction to whatever we are experiencing. That reaction can
make a difference in whether we are fearful or fearless in the face of a health challenge.
When she was diagnosed with a terminal illness and given six months to live, Unity cofounder Myrtle Fillmore demonstrated this power by focusing her thoughts on life instead of death.
When we are facing an illness, we have two choices. We can entertain fearful thoughts or we can affirm that we have a divine inheritance of good despite any appearance to the contrary.
Unity teaches that we create our reality by what we choose to think, feel, and believe. In other words, what we think about, we bring about. —Rev. Sandra Campbell

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I release fear of illness and choose thoughts of wholeness and well-being in mind, body, and spirit.”

Rule No11 invites us today to understand that life is full of trials and triumphs. The faculty of Wisdom allows us to embrace every challenge and difficulty knowing that we are learning and growing in the process.

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the rule and the quote below. I would like to ask you to think about your fears. As you do so, look at them, either they are of health, finances or other matters, then imagine a huge bonfire, then mentally release the fears into the fire. Keep on doing this until they thoughts of fear stop showing up. Then raise your awareness into Oneness with the Divine Presence. Allow this loving Presence to embrace you and love you through your actions of releasing.

Please share your journey and experiences with me. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release fear of illness.

Daily quotes:

This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.—Psalm 118:24

Personally, I think it is important to find the True meaning behind the word ‘LOVE’,  understand it and experience it as a Spiritual Quality inherently within us. 

I am going to walk this 40-day Lenten journey contemplating on the True meaning of Love, Divine Love, Spiritual Love for me by experimenting with the 40 rules and quotes from the Lent Booklet. Every day, between 

the 5th of March to the 21 April 2025,

I will post a ‘rule’ from the book ’40 rules of Love’ and an a release idea from the book ’40 days of Rebirth and Renewal – Lent 2025′ by Unity.org. Then, we will contemplate on it and share about it in the UNITY EUROPE Facebook Group (CLICK HERE).

Rule 10

“The quest for love changes us. There is no seeker among those who search for love who has not matured on the way. The moment you start looking for love, you start to change within and without. “* 

To  listen to the audio, click on the picture below.

Today, we are releasing doubt and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of doubt. 

In my daily life I must make choices and decisions. I may find myself at a crossroads with two paths opening in front of me and not know which one to take. Doubt puts me in a place of suspicion and distrust. It immobilizes me and stops my progress
toward the good that awaits me.
When my heart is troubled by uncertainty or not knowing what to do, it is time to pause. Quieting my mind and bringing my attention to the point of light in my heart can help me restore my balance and give me back the peace, boldness, courage, or
firmness that my soul seeks. In a balanced and serene mind, responses flow spontaneously and naturally.
Let us keep in mind that in God there is no hesitancy or vacillation; everything is ordered and clarified. In that presence, I decide now to live my day. —Rev. Beatriz Gallerano Bell

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I live this day with determination and security.”

Simply put it, Rule No10 invites us today to meditate, to travel the inner journey and realize our beauty and greatness. 

Daily contemplative task: Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No10 and the quote below. 

Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release doubt.

Daily quotes:

I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear. Rosa Parks

Rule 9

“East, west, south, or north makes little difference. No matter what your destination, just be sure to make every journey, a journey within. If you travel within, you’ll visit the whole full World and beyond.“*

Today, we are releasing hostility and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of hostility. 

“As love attracts, hate dissipates” and “The two ideas, love and hate … simply cannot both be present in your mind at one time, and when you are entertaining one, you may be sure the other is absent.” Charles Fillmore
Anger and hostility destroy physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Hostility held in our hearts and minds causes insomnia, anxiety, and even chronic illness. Harboring hostile thoughts and feelings is akin to overloading an electrical
system, creating dangerous power surges that can potentially destroy our devices and even cause fires.
Antidotes for this destructive energy are forgiveness and unconditional love. To paraphrase The Revealing Word, when the heavenly state of mind is established, we are restored to our natural wholeness. —Rev. Vernelle Nelson

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I bless the world with the gifts of unconditional love, harmony, acceptance, and peace.”

Simply put it, Rule No9 invites us today to meditate, to travel the inner journey and realize our beauty and greatness. 

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No9 and the quote below. I would like to ask you to spend some time in meditation today, travel the inner journey: meet yourself at your best and your worst. Forgive where you feel you fail and be grateful for where you succeed.  Let me know how it worked for you. Thank you.

Today we affirm: Today, I release hostility.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on  the task above.

Rule 8

“Patience does not mean to endure passively. It means to look at the end of a process. What does tolerance mean? It means to look at the thorn and see the rose, to look at the night, and see the dawn. Impatience means to be shortsighted as not to be able to see the outcome. The lovers of God never run out of patience, for they know that time is needed for the crescent moon to become full.“*

Today, we are releasing DISCOURAGEMENT and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of discouragement. 

Sometimes a setback will discourage us so much that we do not want to try again. 
Liberation from discouragement depends on dismissing failed assumptions. It takes courage to discard the way things have been done before. It takes courage to choose a new way of being, to release discouragement, let go the old, and grasp the new.

Reaching for what is new has us teetering on the edge of transformation. On edge is not a comfortable place to be. We might be tempted to step back to relieve discomfort and accept dismay. This is not a wise trade. Instead, step forward to release
discouragement and claim success. —Rev. Michael Jamison

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I choose a new way of being.”

Rule No8 invites us today to become patient with self and others because time in God’s world is irrelevant. We are all on Divine Timing which means that we are asked to have faith in the ‘not there yet’ and expect it with anticipation. Instead of seeing what is not there, we can imagine that it is there already by having faith in the coming of it. 

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No8 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing discouragement worked for you. 

Today we affirm: Today, I release discouragement.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on where you need more courage and where you need more patience in your life. When you realized where you need these; close your eyes and imagine your being courageous and move forward, then imagine yourself being patient with anticipation and faith.

Daily quotes:

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. Steve Jobs

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. T. S. Eliot

You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor. Aristotle

Rule 7

“Whatever happens in your life, no matter how troubling things might seem, do not enter the neighborhood of despair. Even when all doors remain closed, God will open up a new path only for you. Be thankful! It is easy to be grateful when all is well. A Sufi is thankful not only for what he has been given but also for all that he has been denied. “*

Today, we are releasing blame and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of blame. 

I let go of blame because the power to overcome hardship is never in what happened to me. Rather, power is in what lies within me.
I choose to avoid the blame game. Perpetually pointing the finger at myself or
someone or something external to myself creates an endless loop of pain that offers no opportunity to transform hurtful outcomes into loving, just, compassionate, and peaceful experiences.
I let go of blame by focusing my faith in directions that empower me rather than diminish me. I let go of blame, knowing that I may make mistakes, but I am not a mistake. I let go of blame with the understanding that actions intended to hurt me can be transformed into a blessing for me. I let go of blame because it no longer serves me. I let go of blame. Period! —Rev. Sheila R. McKeithen, J.D.

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “In faith, I embrace my greater possibilities over the pain of blame.”

Rule No7 invites us today to be grateful regardless of our circumstances. Though it is hard sometimes, to see the good and the learning in a difficult situation, we can chose to believe that it is there. By expressing our gratitude, we place faith into the unfolding of our life. The energy of gratitude attracts good into our life.

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No7 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing blame worked for you. 

Today we affirm: Today, I release blame.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on blame. Look at your life as it is right now and find where you blame, either yourself or someone else. Can you see what lies behind your blame? Is it pain or anger or a feeling of helplessness? As you close your eyes to move into the silence, call upon the inner knowing, the Loving core of God’s Presence within. Place your blame onto God’s ‘hands’ and say it out loud: I let go of blaming myself and/or blaming XYZ. I have the power to transform my life! Let the words sink in! Finally, express your gratitude for the opportunity of transformation in this particular situation. 

Daily quotes:

If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. Khalil Gibran

A man can fail many times, but he isn’t a failure until he begins to blame somebody else. John Burroughs

Rule 6

“Loneliness and solitude are two different things. When you are lonely, it is easy to delude yourself into believing that you are on the right path. Isolation is better for us, as it means being alone without feeling lonely. But eventually, it is best to find a person who will be your mirror. Remember only in another person’s heart can you truly see yourself and the Presence of God within you.  “*

Today, we are releasing confusion and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of overindulgence. 

Underlying every indulgence, compulsion, and addiction is self will and a craving for power over some aspect of living. Overindulgence is undermining and self-wounding.
Willful seeking of pleasure through the senses to soothe pain and fill emptiness can be a wake-up call to study the spiritual dimensions of will, our executive faculty. Living from our true Divine nature is rooted in the understanding, that I do nothing on my own.
Beginning the day with spiritual practices harnesses the will, thereby calming cravings and reestablishing an inner sense of connection. The spiritual humility of releasing the need to have power over anything is nurtured by affirming: Not my will, but divine will for good is done through me. Divine will is given the reins. Inner integrity leads the way throughout the day. —Rev. Kathy Harwood Long

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “Divine will for good is done through me.”

Rule No6 invites us today to look at how important the presence of other humans in our life is. We can only see ourselves clearly and our God Essence within through the presence of another. ‘Love thy neighbour’ means the acknowledgement of the important role ‘any other’ person plays in our life. When we are angry with someone, we are presented with an opportunity to learn about part of our nature that is in limitation. The person we are angry with plays an important role in our realising the truth of the matter and allow for positive change.

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No6 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing overindulgence worked for you. 

Today we affirm: Today, I release overindulgence.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on people who brings the best and the worst out of you today. Chose one of each. In meditation ask what aspect of yourself you see reflected in each of them? Take the learning and express your gratitude for the inner guidance.

Rule 5

“Most of the problems of the world stem from linguistic mistakes and simple misunderstandings. Don’t ever take words at face value. When you step into the zone of Love, language, as we know it, becomes obsolete. That which cannot be put into words can only be grasped through silence.  “* 

To  listen to the audio, click on the picture below.

Today, we are releasing confusion and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of confusion.

Releasing confusion is often said to be a matter of reconnecting with our inner knowing. When confusion arises, it’s a sign that we’ve lost touch with our inner guidance or the divine presence within us.
To dispel confusion, we must be willing to take the time to reestablish this connection. Often, sharing our thoughts with a loved one who listens with unconditional love and understanding can help us find the answers within ourselves.
Once we remember that our connection to our inner knowing dispels confusion, we can take action to reconnect and find clarity. —Rev. Suzanne Carter

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I reconnect with the divine presence within and find clarity on what to do.”. 

Rule No5 invites us today to look at the meaning of words. If we truly want to know the meaning of a word for us, we must let go of the understanding of a word by others and find it for ourselves in the silence. E.g. many people find the word God difficult to use because the meaning of God is associated with a religion and its dogmas. But the meaning of the word God can only be understood through the experience of God in the silence of meditation and prayer.

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No5 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing confusion worked for you. 

Today we affirm: Today, I release confusion.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on the meaning of a few words such as God, responsibility, Loving, peace, and such. Move into meditation and look at what meanings the words come with from the world. Then let them go and listen within. Gain clarity on the true meaning of these word for YOU!

Daily quote: That inner voice has both gentleness and clarity. So to get to authenticity, you really keep going down to the bone, to the honesty, and the inevitability of something. Meredith Monk

Rule 4

“Intellect and Love are made of different materials. Intellect ties people in knots and risks nothing, but love dissolves all tangles and risks everything. Intellect is always cautious and advises, ‘Beware too much ecstasy,’ whereas Love says, ‘Oh, never mind! Take the plunge!’ Intelligence does not easily break down, whereas Love can effortlessly reduce itself to rubble. But treasures are hidden among ruins. A broken heart hides treasures.  “*

Today, we are releasing rigidity and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of rigidity.

It’s admirable to stand firm in our beliefs, but insisting our way is the only way can be both painful and limiting. The key is to keep an open mind. Physical or emotional signs—a tightened jaw, clenched fists, a stiffened back, or a flash of temper—are clues. Noticing these signals is the first step. Then it’s about finding our center again. Take deep breaths. Listen more than speak. Affirm God’s presence. Pray for peace. Jonah never gets it; to the end, he rigidly clings to his mistaken beliefs. His story reminds us that, no matter the experience, we can choose to keep our hearts and minds open—or not. —Rev. Kurt Condra

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I earnestly listen for guidance and follow it freely.”. 

Rule No4 ties in very nicely with today’s Lent reading. We are invited today to allow the flow of Loving to carry us to new experiences. We are asked to release old and limiting beliefs so we can enjoy the ride that Love takes us on. It is time to experience life to the fullest because every experience hides some treasures for us!

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No4 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing rigidity worked for you. 

Today we affirm: Today, I release rigidity.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on where it is that you are rigid with your ideas and how you block the flow of Loving with ‘logical thinking’ and ‘good excuses’. When you find them, release them into God’s Grace and allow yourself to live a little! <3

Personally, I think it is important to find the True meaning behind the word ‘LOVE’,  understand it and experience it as a Spiritual Quality inherently within us. 

I am going to walk this 40-day Lenten journey contemplating on the True meaning of Love, Divine Love, Spiritual Love for me by experimenting with the 40 rules and quotes from the Lent Booklet. Every day, between 

the 5th of March to the 21 April 2025,

I will post a ‘rule’ from the book ’40 rules of Love’ and an a release idea from the book ’40 days of Rebirth and Renewal – Lent 2025′ by Unity.org. Then, we will contemplate on it and share about it in the UNITY EUROPE Facebook Group (CLICK HERE).

Let’s walk this journey together!

Rule 3

“You can study God through everything and everyone in the universe because God is not confined in a mosque, synagogue, or church. But if you are still in need of knowing where exactly His abode is, there is only one place to look for him: in the heart of a true lover. “*

Today, we are releasing thoughts of lack and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of thoughts of lack.

Have you ever heard someone complain that they didn’t have enough or claim they couldn’t afford something? You may have said those words yourself. How often do we argue for our limitations? Look at the words we use. Evidence of lack and limitation comes from fear.

Faith instead opens us to creative possibilities. What’s in your thoughts? If you want to know, take a look at your life.

Thoughts of lack shut the door to the abundant flow of good the Universe has for you. Once we release the habit of focusing on whatever we perceive as lacking, we can move from a mindset of scarcity to one of abundance, health, wisdom, and
well-being.

When we choose to release patterns of lack thinking, God’s good begins to show up everywhere. It is always flowing.—Rev. Lesley Miller

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I  feel worthy of God’s Love for me. I allow change to bring spiritual contentment into my life”. 

Rule No3 invites us to look at the true ‘source of God’. In order to feel God’s Loving presence in our life, we need to create a personal relationship with God through meditation and prayer. It does not matter where we are as we turn our attention to God but we must do it from within, from the deepest desire of our being for connection. We must turn into a Lover of God, someone who understands that abundant life is only possible by walking in and with God.

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No3 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing thoughts of lack worked for you. 

You are loved just for being who you are, just for existing. You don’t have to do anything to earn it. Your shortcomings, your lack of self-esteem, physical perfection, or social and economic success – none of that matters. No one can take this love away from you, and it will always be here. Ram Dass

Today we affirm: Today, I release thoughts of lack.

Daily contemplative task: I would like to invite you to contemplate on how you connect with God and why. Do you consciously build a deepening relationship with the Divine Presence within yourself and all around you? How do you do that?

Rule 2

“The path to the Truth is a labor of the heart, not of the head. Make your heart your primary guide! Not your mind. Meet, challenge, and ultimately prevail over your nafs (false ego) with your heart. Knowing your false ego will lead you to the Knowledge of God. “*

Today, we are releasing discontent and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today to release and let go of discontent.

“For spiritual beings on an evolutionary journey, discontent plays an integral role. It speaks through an ache in the pit of the stomach, a restless mind, or an unquenchable fatigue. While our spiritual nature yearns to search, seek, and expand, discontent is the voice of ego stifling that still, small voice within.
Ego desires consistency, often resisting change. But change is the fuel of spiritual development; in our willingness to embrace change, we can remain content no matter the circumstance before us. Rather than allowing discontent to drain or stifle,
see it as a signal for something exciting that is underway. Let discontent turn your attention inward, allowing that still, small voice to move you toward your next adventure.”—Rev. David B. Adams

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I  allow change to bring spiritual contentment into my life”. 

Rule No2 invites us to look at where we live our life from: our ego (the mind) or our spiritual nature (our heart). We are asked to learn about our false ego and our limitations so we can let them go and realize our true nature.

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No2 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing discontent worked for you. 

“Be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5

Today we affirm: Today, I release discontent.

Rule 1

“How we see God is a direct reflection of how we see ourselves. If God brings to mind mostly fear and blame, it means there is too much fear and blame swelled inside us. If we see God as full of Love and compassion, so are we.“*

ASH WEDNESDAY

Today, we are releasing stress and embracing God’s Love for us. 

Our Lent Booklet Invites us today – on Ash Wednesday – to release and let go of stress.

“Unfortunately, stress can have a negative impact on our mental and physical health. When we begin to feel stressed,  it’s always best to return to our spiritual principles. when challenges arise, rather than useless worrying we should look beyond them to God. When we think about God/our higher power/Spirit manifesting as perfect health and wholeness, joy and happiness, love and harmony, we give energy to that which we desire and take energy away from the problem. We shift our attention from stressing to letting God express in and through us as good.” Rev. Saba Mchunguzi

 We can choose to embrace ourselves by saying: “I trust my Divine essence that is of God. 

Rule No1 invites us to look at our relationship with God or the Divine Being, Supreme Being, The Universe (use the name that works for you best). How do I see God? What do I think about God?  Is he a punishing guy in the Heavens who judges my ever action? Or is It a gentle breeze constantly brushing my entire being with Loving Kindness?  As I answer the questions, I understand where I stand with myself. By noticing how I see God, I can learn where I need to change so to create a more Loving relationship with myself. 

Today, I invite you to contemplate on the Rule No1 and the quote below. Let me know how practicing releasing stress worked for you. 

You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you. – Dan Millman

Today we affirm: Today, I release stress.
