A Year Ago, I Died ((Flags: Personal))

It was one year ago last Friday that my heart stopped beating. Twice. Both times I was resurrected.

Having been through those experiences and the subsequent open-heart bypass surgery, the recovery, a complicating after-effect, lifestyle changes called for by the whole experience and a powerful spiritually transforming experience in the process, I can honestly say that I finally understand fearlessness and the true meaning of absolute freedom. I am a somewhat but not completely different person from what I was a year ago; more intensely focused on spiritual growth and teaching, more aware of my mortality and of the importance of my message to the world. I have one major goal now: reach 5 million people with my spiritual teachings in three years.

Every day is beautiful. I am blessed and grateful beyond words. And I am more than ever acutely aware of the Truth in my personal spiritual motto/slogan, "There's Only One of Us Here."

Namaste
