			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href='http://www.lucylopez.net/planethappiness/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/your-perfection.jpg'><img src="http://www.lucylopez.net/planethappiness/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/your-perfection.jpg" alt="" title="your-perfection.jpg" width="300" height="146" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-111" /></a></p>
<p>Hi All!  Today, I happened to send a message to a friend over the internet.  After sending it, it occurred to me that others too might enjoy reading it and so I am posting it here, omitting the name of my friend and replacing it with a more universal name, Friend :-).  </p>
<p>My dearest Friend</p>
<p>The expressions and my experiences of our infinite nature/potential continue to thrill me and keep me in awe!</p>
<p>Take the internet, for example. Look at how it has influenced us, how it has become a medium for communication and action like no other (and by that I simply mean &#8216;different&#8217; not &#8216;better&#8217; :-)). Look at how it has made our spiritual communion possible&#8230;or rather, brought it to our awareness for we are all and always in communion.</p>
<p>So from this space of gratitude, thrill and awe, I give thanks for and marvel at your spiritual journey too!</p>
<p>I truly believe and feel in a very gentle and free way that ALL things are possible. I do mean &#8216;all&#8217;. In my experience, when I am in a free, peaceful and loving space, whatever I have desired, imagined, intended and allowed is manifested, often in the most charming, unexpected and thrilling ways :-). Life has truly been getting more and more fascinating, joyous and free for me!</p>
<p>I do wish that you too will experience the power of DESIRE, IMAGINATION, INTENTION and ALLOWING (the last of which means not trying to dictate how things mush happen but remaining open to the infinite possibilities by which they can happen). Also important is to go through this process while in a state of peace and love. I believe that this is what is implied when Jesus teaches:<br />
<em><br />
When you come to pray, first make peace with your brother.</em></p>
<p>To me, this means:<br />
<em><br />
Offer your prayer, your desire, your intention with a mind and heart that are at peace, for this will ensure that what you ask for is what is good and great and what you truly desire!</em></p>
<p>Quantum Physics or at least the scientists and science involved is finally catching up with the cosmology of ancient spiritual traditions, perhaps best articulated and captured in the Hindu Vedas.</p>
<p>I have not heard of CERN. My first taste of QP was through the work of an English physicist, Paul Davis (who became my &#8216;hero&#8217; for a few years!!!). He has written several books, one of which is called, Physics and The Mind of God. I read this book about 18 years ago when I was considering doing my PhD&#8230;</p>
<p>Anyway, since then, I have read others, including Fritjof Capra (The Tao of Physics), Amit Goswami and others that I find on the internet.</p>
<p>It really was the turning point for me, recognizing that the classical physics I had learned at school was not quite right and finding within QP, the pointers and tentative explanations of my life experiences. It was QP that got me interested in Buddhism and what I have gained from that is immeasurable.</p>
<p>I believe what we &#8216;take&#8217; from something is proportional to what we &#8216;put&#8217; in. To that extent, having a mind of sincere enquiry and openness and a desire for happiness will certainly reap just the fruits we desure &#8211; happiness through enlightenment.</p>
<p>The gradual &#8216;departure&#8217; of your trauma and its companions (anger, guilt, fear, regret etc) have revealed your natural joy which has always been a part of your true nature, that true nature which is &#8216;unenhanceable and incorruptible&#8217;, as they say in Buddhism.</p>
<p>Friend, your moment of joy and freedom is here and now. Always here and now. May you continue to fall deeper and deeper (and/or grow wider and wider) into &#8216;here and now&#8217; (which of course is the other expression for &#8216;love&#8217; :-)).</p>
<p>I rejoice in the fact that we have been able to share this communion of spirit and shall continue to&#8230; :-)</p>
<p>In love, Lucy</p>
