Blog: Lester Meets Deepak. Part 2. The Infinite You.
Posted by David Ellzey on February 21st, 2010
Read on for how timeless truths can improve your daily life starting
right now as you read this.
I just finished Journey into Healing here in Phoenix, AZ, at the Biltmore Hotel, beautifully designed by Frank 
Lloyd Wright. The live program was given by The Chopra Center for Well-Being. Studying with Dr. Deepak Chopra and his co-founder, Dr. David Simon, confirmed for me that the timeless truth of our unlimited nature that Lester Levenson, the creator of The Sedona Method, pointed us toward has been known for thousands of years.
In this program we learned of how it was eloquently and poetically spoken of in the ancient Indian Vedic scriptures (eastern scriptures exploring how the human soul is an individual expression of the Infinite - and how to awaken to that inner truth).
As dear Lester counseled us, there is no separation between us and the cosmos or God, only an appearance of it. We are all expressions of what can be called in quantum physics - an infinite field of possibilities, as are the waves of the ocean. The waves remain an expression of the one ocean with an appearance of individuality. Lester was so clear in helping us let go of this egoic sense of separation. I believe this technique of The Sedona Method - used for letting go of the ego and all its suffering - is unparalleled in its simplicity.
Studying mime with a Kaballah Master (the mystic tradition of Judaism) at age seventeen, I was introduced to the idea that in space, both inner and outer, there exists an invisible and infinite potential of possibilities. We know in physics that there is no final ending or beginning to anything in existence. Life is better explained as an unending river of events appearing in time and space, yet originating from that which is timeless and infinite. In fact, let’s apply this to your emotional well being. If you want to feel free of your emotional turmoil easily and quickly, let’s try something …
Decide on a feeling that has hindered your happiness. Right now, I recommend you think of it now. Next, do me a favor and see if you can find where the absolute boundaries of the feeling are. Usually we can say its in the gut, or chest or neck, but really - check. Can you find the actual boundaries or does it seem that its energy bleeds into the area around it? Is it possible that your mind or memory is keeping it in place or appearing real by perceiving a fixed location? Let’s experiment. Quiet your mind for a nanosecond and open yourself to the possiblity that without the boundaries the feeling has the freedom to disappate or transform. What happens? Take your time. Try it….Open to this possibility. Go slow. Pause and breathe. Is there a shift, disappearance, or at least a bit of hope?
The Sedona Method brilliantly helps guide your attention to see that all feelings and thoughts are simply energy that can be allowed to dissolve, leaving inner peace, courage, and the deepest love. If you have ANY place in your life that is not as joyful or loving as you wish, whether in your relationships, at work, regarding the body, or money, you can dissolve your anxiety and other feelings and reveal the inherent stillness and wisdom which is your essential nature underlying all feelings. Stillness and wisdom are attributes of your boundless nature, the infinite you.
I can’t stress enough how essential a skill like this can be in daily life, especially in these times. With my heart, I highly suggest you check your calendar and move whatever you have to, to be able to attend the upcoming Sedona Method course here in NYC, April 10-11. If you are overseas, go to the Calendar link above and look at the upcoming dates in Scotland, England, and Holland in April and May. As a graduate, I recommend you rearrange your calendar to be sure to get to the advanced course, Effortless Relationships, to transform all your relationships and the one most importantly to yourself. Could you love yourself more? If so, do all you can to be at this course in New York on March 6-7 or in Holland, May 7-9.
So, my friends around this spinning planet, I send you my greatest care and good wishes. I very much hope to have the opportunity to support you in finding how a magnificent life is yours for the having.

Blog: Lester Meets Deepak.Two Masters. Same Message.
Posted by David Ellzey on February 17th, 2010
Written at 24,000 feet in the air on my way to Phoenix, for Journey Into Healing.
Since I was first introduced to The Sedona Method in 1987 I have been moved by Lester Levenson’s (The creator of this Method) message: We are unlimited beings, limited only by the concepts of limitation that we hold in mind. As I now teach this message and this technique for swiftly quieting the noisy mind around the world I’ve had the pleasure of seeing its transformative power.
As I have gotten to know more about Dr. Deepak Chopra, co-contributing to an upcoming book with him, (Stepping Stones to Success) and reading his teachings on consciousness, I see the perfect symmetry of his message with Lester’s.
In fact, it is the same message: We are a local expression of infinite existence. Our happiness and health is impacted by either focusing on our mind’s endless thoughts of limitations ~ or focusing on the unlimited background upon which all thoughts rise. This background is our essential nature, unlimited and pristine.
I am so inspired by this truth and by Dr. Chopra’s way of integrating science, medicine, and spirituality , that I will study with him and his co-founder of the Chopra Wellness Center, Dr. David Simon, for the next five days in Phoenix. The program is called Journey Into Healing and is a foundation for understanding the 5,000 year old healing approach of Ayerveda, the way to health and wellness in body, mind, and spirit. The week will include training in Ayerveda, as well as yoga and meditation. Not to mention exploring the realization that we are infinite in our essential nature.
Regarding your own life, when you feel the confines of what your mind is creating about an issue, experiment with the possibility that your mind is not the final authority, you are. When feelings arise with that issue, consider the option of letting the feelings go and moving on with a more rewarding life. If you wonder how this is possible: The Sedona Method is the quick and easy “how to”. See the Calendar link above for upcoming events so you can transform your life with more happiness, starting now. (April 10-11 is upcoming in New York City)
Meanwhile, as the pilot announces our landing, I anticipate seeing the perfect synergy of Lester and Deepak ~ and dancing in the beauty of the one truth we are all learning to celebrate. The unlimited nature of our true being. What sweet freedom.
Don’t’ forget to check the calendar for upcoming basic and advanced events ~ if you are new to The Sedona Method or a graduate of this life-changing work.
Stay tuned. I’ll have more reports for you in the next five days.
My greatest love,
For your freedom,
