Choosing to be happy and saying thank you to whatever circumstances befall you is one of the most radical things you could ever do.

To worship Jesus the way we do is a little like worshipping Benjamin Franklin because he first discovered electricity. Ben Franklin sent that kite up in an electric storm so we could use the principle he demonstrated. He didn’t do it so we’d build temples to him, paint pictures of him, and wear little commemorative keys around our necks. He wanted us to take the principle of electricity and use it – which we do to run radios and computers and air conditioners. Had we stopped with Ben’s discovery the way we did with Jesus’s discovery, we’d all be sitting in the dark. Benjamin Franklin didn’t invent electricity any more than Jesus invented spiritual principles. Lightning and the resulting electricity have always been available. We just didn’t realize it or know how to access it. Galileo didn’t invent gravity when he dropped the wooden ball off the leaning tower of Pisa. He just demonstrated it. Likewise, Jesus demonstrated spiritual principles that he wants us to use and develop. We’ve wasted 2,000 years worshipping this idol of him instead of using the principles he taught us. Look through the Bible and nowhere does Jesus say,‘Worship me.’ His call to us was ‘follow me’. There’s a big difference. By making Jesus out to be a hero, we miss the whole point. Jesus wasn’t saying,‘I’m cool. Make statues of me; turn my birthday into a huge commercial holiday.’ He was saying: Here, look what is possible. Look what we humans are capable of. Jesus is our brother, our legacy, the guy we’re supposed to emulate.

It’s right underneath your fingers, baby. That’s all you have to understand—everything is right underneath your fingers.

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds.

Until further notice, celebrate everything
