Take Some Soul Steps
Put Yourself Right
If things are wrong in the world, it is because something is wrong with the individual.
To save the world, put your self right first; then help other nearby individuals; and, only after attending to people, work on the non-human cause of concern.
Start your dreams in the dream world of The Absolute and keep them in this private, quiet, unseen place until you have gathered sufficient momentum to carve your own way.
Solve life’s problems by quieting the mind, putting your attention on your heart region, repeating the “ah” sound to connect to the divine presence of your Soul, becoming still and feeling the expansiveness of peacefulness, and basking in the light and beauty of your love by expressing gratitude.
To put yourself right, commune with nature* and work toward getting yourself closer to being just, suitable, correct, and prepared to participate in solving the world’s problems (as instructed in the associated unabridged text).
To provide more equity, fairness, and moral rightness, humans need to, among other things, overcome the tendency, common in corporations, to subordinate eternal public values for expedient commercial priorities. When such subordination occurs, it is the environment, the community, the worker, the consumer, and democracy itself that pays the dearest.
If things are wrong in the world, it is because something is wrong with the individual. To save the world, put your self right first; then help other nearby individuals; and, only after attending to people, work on the non-human cause of concern.
You may feel that you are on a mission to save the world, and indeed you may be. This is joyous work because you feel you are on target. It is also terrible work because of the magnitude of the burden. As you develop as a person your heroic mission to save the world will not remain a burden because after you make your promise to work on a big cause overcoming hindrances becomes your simple way to participate in the world.
A better end product occurs when its initiation is right. Start your dreams in the dream world of The Absolute and keep them in this private, quiet, unseen place until you have gathered sufficient momentum to carve your own path.
To put yourself on course, do the five steps described by Jonathan Parker in his book The Soul Solution: Enlightening Mediations for Resolving Life’s Problems (2011). These five step are:
grounding (quieting the mind),
centering (putting your attention on your heart region,
attuning (repeating a sound to connect to the divine presence of your Soul),
integrating (becoming still and feeling the expansiveness of peacefulness), and,
gratitude (basking in the light and beauty of your love).
They are all described in detail in the following activity.

HumaNatureConnect Activity
If this is not a day when you prefer to spend time in nature without an agenda, do the following activity:
Start-up Protocol
Read The Text — Use your literary sense, your mind sense, and your reason sense to read your way towards happiness and sustainability but do not just be an arm-chair traveler. Use your other natural senses as you also spend healthful, fun, and productive time in nature on your way to Gladandgreen Junction.
Attractive Natural Being — With pen and journal in hand, go to a natural area and look around to find a natural being that is attractive to you.
Appreciation and Gratefulness — While admiring your chosen being, appreciate it with your inhalations and give it gratitude with your exhalations.
Consent — Once you find an aspect of nature that is attractive to you continuously for at least ten seconds, think of your continued attraction as your consent to have a connection experience that will lead to your optimal functioning.
The Natural Senses — After gaining consent to enter into a connection experience with the natural being, have available the list of Natural Senses. Mix it up by using at least one radiation sense, one feeling sense, one chemical sense, and one mental sense, to widen your perception, and add variety to your experience.
HumaNatureConnect Activity — After reading the text, finding a natural being, appreciating it, gaining its consent, and scanning the list of natural senses, use your heightened awareness and nature-induced optimal functioning to do the following activity and engage in as many follow-up components as you see fit.
