		<description><![CDATA[With hundreds of millions of searches per day, Google responds to our every desire.  The Internet, then, is a model for consciousness - we ask and it delivers.  The world we live in is the manifestation of our every thought.

Our friends support us with empathy - strengthening our resolve not sympathy which indulges our victimization. <a href="http://lightbeam.org/2011/11/13/sympathy-vs-empathy/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When we avoid conflict we miss the perfect alchemy for spiritual growth.  The demons we face in others are really the demons of our broken self image that is begging for healing.  When we invoke spirit guidance we are given all we require for the courage of our own Self fulfillment. <a href="http://lightbeam.org/2011/11/09/the-meaning-of-courage/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jesus's message of Unconditional Love and surrender to a Higher Power was taught in parables.  Why then do we mistake the message of the Crucifixion and Resurrection to be literal and not allegorical?  How can we embrace the freedom and peace offered by the resurrection of our own Christed Self?  It's simple but it is not easy. <a href="http://lightbeam.org/2011/04/24/what-if-the-resurrection-didnt-happen/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Self realization requires stepping out of the familiar and comfortable.  It requires the will to let go of what defines us on the outside and create our world from the inside.  It is the will to surrender completely to the higher Self - all that we can be.  It is the courage to stand by right choices - even when it sends a shudder through the foundation of those who love and depend on us.

		<description><![CDATA[If your head is your PC and the universe (collective unconscious) is the internet – what are you putting into your search? Every single choice you make gets a result. When you don't make choices – clear and definitive, you get the world of spam – everybody else's uncensored, unconscious, unclear, noise and confusion. When you are fulfilling your desires and the outcome is your happiness then the world will follow you and will be a happier place. <a href="http://lightbeam.org/2010/05/01/let-the-bells-ring-out-i-get-it/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
