I think most of us have imagined what it would be like to have a superpower of our very own. I have been asked, “Which superpower would you choose if you could have one?” It is difficult to choose just one, but I wanted to choose one that would allow me to have the courage and deal with any situation or challenge I encountered. I first thought it might be super human intelligence, but deep down I also knew that was strangely limiting.
Manly P. Hall said, “Intelligence is an innate integrity abiding in the soul, and intellectualism is an education of the mind by external study and training.” Intelligence was not the only answer, both are important for our well-being and happiness.
And I have come to realize that tapping into the Divine Intelligence of the universe is the most exciting thing to me. And the extraordinary thing is that we are all capable of doing this. It is through the act of meditation that we open our third eye (pineal gland) in order to tap into the innate wisdom of the universe.
Most of us have a resistance to starting the practice for various reasons, but just start by sitting quietly for 5 minutes a day. Focus on your breath. Don’t try to quiet the mind, it will never be quiet. But the mind will naturally become less frenetic over time. It is in these quiet times that you will start hearing Divine inspiration seep into your thoughts. It is the quiet voice that speaks truth and wisdom and it will give your life direction and purpose. It will also unleash your unique gifts and abilities that you can share with the world. That is why it is your superpower and it will liberate you.
