1995 Daily Meditations
$5.00 Add to cartMental concentration is a difficult exercise which requires preparation. This preparation consists first in calming ourselves, because an agitated state disperses psychic energies. If we attempt to concentrate without having first established inner calm, we shock the cells of our brain and prevent them from doing their work properly. Every object has a natural inertia, and we cannot stimulate a desired movement all at once. We must start with a very gentle push, and only after a certain time will it assume on its own the momentum we wish. Never forget that the cells of our organism are living creatures, which we must neither force nor shock.

1996 Daily Meditations
$6.95 Add to cartWithout the mind, without thought, feeling is blind. And so, even if it is driven by the best intentions, it inadvertently ends in disaster. Yes indeed, even good feeling can only bring sorrow and pain if it is not guided and enlightened by thought. Whereas if thought begins to guide and enlighten feeling, then even bad feeling can be transformed and do good, because thought lies at the origin of everything and thought is above everything. Heaven has given each one of us a divine cord, a ladder with which we can elevate ourselves to the higher regions. And this ladder is thought.

1997 Daily Meditations
$6.95 Add to cartAs you wake up in the morning remember to check your inner mail to see what messages have been left there overnight. Because as we sleep the soul emerges from the body and leaves for the invisible world where she travels around, studies, and works. This allows her to see and to learn many things, and when she returns all this knowledge is imprinted on our brain. And when we wake up, we remember having had certain experiences, having been given certain warnings or advice showing us the way to live the new day. You may say: ‘But why does this never happen to me? I never remember anything.’ This is because your brain is not yet sufficiently organised to receive the imprints, the images, the memories the soul brings back from her travels in the invisible world. And you can prepare your brain by living a harmonious life. You will then gradually begin to know and understand what your soul has experienced as you sleep.

1998 Daily Meditations
$6.95 Add to cartIt is difficult to find inner balance and to maintain it, because our day-to-day lives constantly present us with problems to solve. Whether they be personal or collective, we experience these problems as shocks, upheaval, conflict. We feel shaken, thrown off balance, disoriented, and whatever we may do in our struggle to maintain our equilibrium, we cannot succeed as long as we have no philosophical system. Because a philosophical system first of all shows us what we are, what we have to work on, and what instruments we have at our disposal to do the work. Then it shows us the course we must take, and finally the divine goal we must achieve. And it is to this goal, this summit, that we must hold fast, because it is here we shall find safety.

1999 Daily Meditations
$6.95 Add to cartIt is very important for men to have one central, fundamental idea around which all their other ideas revolve and which serves as a foundation and framework on which to build their whole existence. If your clearly defined, unalterable ambition is to become perfect, all your other thoughts and ideas will see this goal as their master and begin to submit to it and take part in the work it is doing within you. Whenever any alien, negative thoughts and feelings slip in, they will find themselves obliged to serve the divine world, to work for the Lord, just as you, yourself, have decided to do. In this way, the animals which stray into your inner garden in order to trample it all underfoot will become subject to that one, fundamental idea: it will be their master.So harbour, every day, one fundamental idea which will give the heavenly entities and the forces of the invisible world, the chance to do their work in you.’

$9.95 Add to cartYes, in order to be safe we must cling to the divine summit, so that when the waves of human passion, both yours and those of the people around you, begin to wash over you, you will not be carried away. If you feel crushed, disoriented, even destroyed, it is your fault, because you stayed too far down. You have been shown a path leading to the only place of safety, and you have been given ladders so, then, why do you not climb

2001 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cartJuly 21:
“When you meditate and pray intensely, you send out harmonious waves, and these waves go out to the world to reach men and women who open themselves to this idea of a fraternity, this idea for which we work. Yes, by the powerful and harmonious waves that you emit, you send messages that are picked up by beings who are receptive and prepared for this. And without even knowing where this impetus comes from, they often make the resolution to work for peace and fraternity in the world, for the propagation of light, for the glory of God. Wherever they may be and whoever they may be, even if we do not know them, all these beings are linked to us, for it is the design of heaven that all children of God be united for the coming of his kingdom on earth.”

2002 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart29 april : From dawn until dusk, people’s everyday lives consist of a constinuous chain of activities and preoccupations, which project them towards the periphery of their being. This means that at the close of day they realize they have forgotten what is most important. How many times have you found yourself in this situation ? Well, in order to break the chain, remember several times a day to stop and remain for a few minutes in silence; an intense silence, however, one that is alive, a silence in which your soul and spirit are able to address the Creator. By regularly exercising your faculty of concentration in this way you will succeed in escaping, for a few moments at least, the problems everyday life brings and this faculty will remain an acquisition to be used whenever a difficult moment arises. You will then realize how useful it is to be able to release yourself completely from your worries in order to direct your thought towards the divine world.

2004 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart24 march : Whatever happens to you, do not become troubled or discouraged, but see to it that your spirit gradually regains control of the situation. In this way you will discover true freedom, because the spirit soars high over events, and it alone is truly free. When you restore the spirit to its place within you, something tells you that these difficulties or irritations cannot destroy your balance, your peace or your love. On the contrary. Since these illuminating experiences have taught you values you can count on, cling to them. Do not doubt the beautiful and great things you have lived, but take them along with you as provisions on this difficult path you must travel. And when the storm has passed , you will realise that what might have caused you to lose heart has actualy stengthened you.

$9.95 Add to cartDaily life is like a current that sweeps you along, and you do not always have the time and opportunity to reflect and to see where it is taking you. Yet, all activity can be beneficial, as long as it is attached to a high ideal, a divine philosophy. As long as you maintain this link, each of your activities can bring you something beneficial.

2006 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart30 April
In the morning, when you open your window or leave your house, you see the sky and the sun. Try to look at them as if for the first time, and you will discover an entire, subtle life that until now has escaped your notice, because you have allowed an opaque screen to come between you and reality. Only by ridding yourself of this screen will you have a true understanding of things.
True understanding is like a spring, always refreshed, always renewed and enchanted. True knowledge is always full of wonder. You must not be content to cultivate this attitude towards nature alone, but towards human beings as well, for not only will you make unimagined discoveries, but you will become far more attractive and interesting to others.

To become truly alive means to awaken to the infinite manifestations of life around us, to greet those we meet with respect, to see the spark of divine life in them and to thank them for all they give us or do for us, sometimes without our knowledge.
To become truly alive means to be forever filled with wonder, to see people and things as if for the first time. Yes, this is what it means to be alive with the life of God himself. It is possible to find true religion in church, but it exists first of all in life, and it is up to us to maintain a conscious relationship with life in all its finest manifestations

$9.95 Add to cart4 January
Do you aspire to inner peace? Few things are as difficult to obtain. But work on the idea of loving, of doing good, of forgiving others and bringing harmony everywhere you go. The time will come when this idea becomes so powerful it will impregnate all your cells, and they will begin to vibrate in unison with it. And then peace will gradually steal its way into you, and it will never leave you again.
Of course, life on earth is such that it’s impossible for you not to be troubled by events from time to time. But they will only make a few ripples on the surface; deep down, you will always feel that peace reigns within you.

2010 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart13 July : If so many laws are needed to govern people’s relationships with each other, it is because love does not yet live in them. Once they know what real love is, once they live with this love, they will no longer need laws to remind them what they can or cannot do, they will just do it, for they will spontaneously find how to harmonize with each other.
Love is the one and only force that organizes all things and makes them grow and blossom. When there is love in a family, a community or a society, there is no longer any need to say, ‘Do this, and there’ll be trouble if you don’t!’ Everyone performs their task with pleasure. Wherever there is love, there is no need for laws.

2011 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart22 May : Thankfulness, gratitude, has the power to cleanse the body, neutralize poisons and renew physical matter…
Why are humans so ungrateful – ungrateful towards the Lord, ungrateful towards nature, ungrateful towards one another? All they remember of their day-to-day life is what they didn’t have or didn’t like, so they do not see that there is much to be thankful for. And yet, there is an enormous amount to be thankful for. Those who want to progress on the path of evolution must learn gratitude, for that is what will one day give them the key to the transformation of matter. Try to really understand that, if you know how to give thanks, the nature of the elements composing your physical matter will be different, more sensitive, subtler and more resistant, and you will feel your psychic and even your physical organs doing better work.Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

2012 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart13 August : Spirituality does not restrict itself to so-called spiritual exercises – meditation or prayer, for example. Actually, any day-to-day activity can be made spiritual if we know how to introduce a divine element. And conversely, if prayer, meditation or any other so-called spiritual activity is not enlivened and sustained by a sublime idea, a higher ideal, it too can become extremely prosaic.
Spirituality does not consist in neglecting or scorning the material world but in always striving to act with the light and for the light. Spiritualy is about knowing how to use any activity – even the most ordinary, the most prosaic – to elevate ourselves, bring ourselves into harmony and connect with the divine world.Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Even at the modest stage you have reached, you can contribute to the good of all humankind. Devote at least a few minutes every day to thinking about how in the future it will just be one big family, whose members all understand and love each other and smile at each other. There are so many good things one can think of for the happiness of the whole world! Think about the whole of humankind going to watch the sun rise and meeting together to dance and sing hymns of joy and gratitude to the Creator…

‘Do not expect your equilibrium and salvation to depend on achieving great things. As the possibilities for accomplishing great feats only rarely present themselves, you are likely to wait a long time. It is the little things that turn out to be the most beneficial. There are so many opportunities for little things! It is up to you to find them by paying greater attention and showing kindness to all living creatures, including animals and plants.
It is your love that will save you, and love can be expressed in all the seemingly unimportant gestures you make every day. Each little gesture you make with diligence, sincerity and love is like a creature of light that is always with you.’

2016 Daily Meditations
$9.95 Add to cart12 June:
How much land has turned to desert due to lack of water! But, also, how many deserts have become fertile land once they had a water supply! Water is life flowing. Those who wish to become a fertile land should always allow the water of life to flow within them, without concern for which trees will grow, flower and give fruit, or which birds will come to sing in them.
Some might say, ‘But first I want to know in advance where this tree or this bird will be, and on which branch the bird will sing.’ If they wait to know all the details before deciding to let the water flow, centuries will go by without any grass growing or bird singing. So let the water flow, and you will see how everything will find its place, how everything will sing and everything will flower. Letting the water flow means never ceasing to love. Whatever happens, never close your heart, for that would be letting your inner world turn to desert. Others may not need your love, but you do need to love.

$9.95 Add to cart18 July :
True silence can be defined as the highest region of our soul. The moment we reach this region, we enter into Cosmic Light.
Light is the quintessence of the universe. It passes through and permeates everything we see around us – people, nature, objects and even what we cannot see. The silence we strive to create within us during concentration, meditation and prayer has only one goal: fusion with this light which is vibrant and powerful, and which penetrates all of creation.

$9.95 Add to cart9 January
Let the spring of love flow within you. Through your thoughts, your feelings, your wishes, your words, let it gush forth over all the creatures and objects around you and beyond, on the trees, the mountains, the oceans. Even if you are by yourself, remember to utter words of peace, of hope and of joy for all human beings on earth, knowing that these words will have an effect somewhere, no matter where. You do not yet know what it is possible to achieve with love.
And since we can only give to others what we possess ourselves, try first to establish harmony and light within you, and then, once you feel you have succeeded in making this harmony and light real within you, in your heart and your soul, project them into space. This is what working with love is all about: becoming a beneficial presence for the entire world.

$9.95 Add to cart26 May
When you open your eyes in the morning, what do you think about? The worries from the day before, the difficulties that await you, the problems you will have to tend to and so forth. This is not a good way to start the day. Set aside your worries till later, they can wait. Start by directing your thoughts towards heaven saying, ‘Lord, I am thankful to be alive today. It is a new day – one for me to see, hear, walk, love and study. Strengthen my will so that everything I undertake will be in the service of good.’
Someone who expresses their gratitude to the Creator the moment they awake increases their inner love and light, and this love and light influence every moment of their day. They see the world around them with different eyes, they have a better attitude towards the people they meet, who open up to them because they feel the peace and joy they radiate.

‘Each human being can be compared to a drop of water, and each drop of water falls exactly where Cosmic Intelligence intended it to fall so as to accomplish its task.
Each drop has to sacrifice itself in one way or another, by quenching the thirsty, refreshing those who are hot, washing those who are dirty after a day’s work, watering the seeds in the fields, and so on. Yes, the sacrifices demanded of water are many – it is used to make bread, cook food and even to dissolve poison – and it must never rebel against what is asked of it; it must always accept. When it has fulfilled its mission, it can return to the heavens and become transparent again. The same is true of human beings.’Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

“Silence, peace and harmony are expressions of the same reality. Do not believe that silence is empty and mute – no, silence is alive, vibrant and it speaks, it sings. But we can hear it only once the big bass drums stop beating within us.
Thanks to contemplation, prayer and meditation, we will one day be able to hear the voice of silence. Once all the chaotic forces have finally subsided, silence will draw near, spread out and wrap us in its splendid cloak. A clarity will come over us and we will suddenly sense that something very powerful reigns above us and governs us: this silence from which the universe emerged and to which it will one day return.”Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

20 December – “The only way to master your instinctive impulses is to have a love for a high ideal. And what is a high ideal? It is a longing for beauty, the spiritual beauty that is purity, light and harmony. When you contemplate this beauty, you naturally and spontaneously turn away from all that is unhealthy, dark and chaotic. Your love of beauty is a protection; it is like a garment that you want to keep clean.
What do you do when you are wearing beautiful clothes that you particularly like? You do not engage in activities in which you would run the risk of tearing or soiling them. You instinctively pay attention to your gestures and look where you sit. Well, in the same way, if you make up your mind to develop your taste for the world of beauty and try to draw closer to it, you will feel as though a subtle garment were gradually being woven around you, and in wanting to protect it, you will be protecting yourself.”Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

22 June – “You want life to be smooth and pleasant, without problems or unhappiness. But why don’t you ask yourself about the underlying meaning of the obstacles that exist in nature and in life instead?
If the path up a high mountain were smooth, you would never be able to climb to the top in order to breathe the pure air and admire the beautiful view, because you would have nothing to cling to. You would keep sliding down to the bottom of the precipice. This is what happens to those whose life is too easy, too comfortable: they lose their grip on life – as well as on their fortune, their health, even their sanity. Since you are climbing up the slopes of a spiritual mountain, do not ask that they be smooth. Be grateful for the rough edges, for it is they that give you a handhold and enable you to keep advancing towards the light.”Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

17 March – “Human beings need role models. When they see someone who is their superior, they want to be just like them. So, if your superiority consists in having more money, more power or more glory, you are not a very good role model. Why? Because you are leading people down a path that inevitably drives them to dominate, humiliate and supplant others.
Whereas, if your superiority stems from your spiritual qualities – kindness, wisdom, self-control, nobility, generosity, purity and selflessness – not only will you sense that they truly belong to you and enable you to rise above difficult circumstances, moreover, you will help those wanting to follow your example to choose the right path and find happiness.”Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov
