One of Ray's favorite quotes is:""L♥ve is All There Is" “Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.” ~ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin “Be Content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.” ~Lao Tzu People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they’re not on your road doesn’t mean they’ve gotten lost. ~Dalai Lama "Whoever is happy will make others happy, too." ~ Mark Twain "The only part of our religion that is real is the part we express in our daily lives. Ideals that we do not act out in practice are mere abstract theories and have no real meaning." ~ Emmet Fox "Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by accidents of time, or place, or circumstance, are brought into closer connection with you." ~ St. Augustine "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate; our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous"? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of god. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory that is within us. And as we let our light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically... liberates others." -Marianne Williamson "The greatest opportunity and gift of life is to recreate yourself a new in the next grandest version of the greatest vision you ever held about who you are." -Neale Donald Walsch". More about Ray:"I am a Being of Love, expressing in the Physical Realm as Ray Ash, a very young, vibrant, fun loving man/child of 72, as "alive" and "growing" as I have ever been. My Mission and Purpose in Life, as I have been "given" it, is "To Be and Express as a Messenger of Love ♥ and Light ☼ ... to Awaken Everyone I Touch to their own Self-Love." I am a retired and "recovering" Engineer, now (finally) finding balance between my Left and Right Brains. I was born and raised in New Jersey, went to college in New York, and have lived in Cincinnati, Ohio for 52 years. I travel a great deal to visit my 7 grandchildren, who live in Kennebunk, Maine; Boulder, Colorado; Lexington, Kentucky; and Columbus, Ohio. I am now single after almost 50 years of marriage to two wives, and father of 3 biological children and 2 stepchildren. My second wife...Expand for more
(for 35 years until we parted 3 years ago) Joanne and I raised a "Brady Bunch" or 5 young (at the time of our marriage) children...not quite as successfully as they did it on TV, but they all managed to come out OK! :-) I have been on a serious Spiritual path for more than ten years. As a trained Scientist and Engineer, I love and study the emerging "confluence" of Science (i.e., Quantum Physics) and Spirituality (i.e., Mysticism) I have studied with Neale Donald Walsch and Barbara Marx Hubbard, Abraham (Esther & Jerry Hicks), and Jean Houston. I have been inspired by many additional Spiritual Teachers, including Wayne Dyer, Don MIguel Ruiz, David Hawkins, Eckhart Tolle, Gregg Braden, Howard Martin, Bruce Lipton, Brian Swimme, Eric Butterworth, Emile Cady, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Sri Paramananda Yogananda. I am an active member of New Thought Unity Center in Cincinnati. I have a Facebook Community of more than 3000 Spiritual Friends all over the Planet. My Core Being is animated by a balance of Masculine and Feminine Chi - the Life Force. I am a seeker/finder- and a messenger for truth as I discover it. I have nothing but LOVE for all life. I see Divinity and Beauty in everyone and everything - in all Sentient Life. I live in a State of Love, Gratitude and Deep Inner Peace. I am a Ray-diator of Love, Light, Joy and Peace to all I touch. I want to awaken everyone I touch to their own Self-Love. I truly believe and try to reflect my "Core Message" - that "L♥ve Is All There Is! ♥ ☼" I attempt to "show up" as Open, Honest, Authentic, and Transparent (O-HAT) in all my connections. I "Live in" a vibrant, healthy, supple and vitally alive physical Body which serves me joyfully on my Journey. My Relationships are resonant, nurturing, honest, synergistic, deeply satisfying and work all the time. My Work and Creative Expression is joyful and reflects my passion. Prosperity and Abundance fill my life, and I am grateful! I celebrate the miracle of the 5-L's - Life, Light, Love, Learning and Laughter - as a model of Peace, Harmony and Joy! I am detached from all outcomes, deeply believing in and experiencing the Universe evolving and unfolding in Divine Order! I "Go with the Flow", living and loving one day at a time. I am In the Flow. It is effortless. I am a "Flow-er", blossoming as I grow in the Light. I bask in Gratitude, Love and Deep Inner Peace. I am Blessed, I am Loved, beyond all bound. This is my affirmation and intention in this lifetime, as I am now experiencing it and it is evolving in me: I am Love, expressing as Ray. I am a Beacon, beaming Rays of Light and Rays of Love to all on the planet and beyond into the Universe. I Ray-diate Love, Light, Joy and Peace, and so much more, to all I encounter, and I receive their Ray-diation of all of this in return! I am re-membering "Me" - "The Ray"... Awakening to "Who I Really Am" - a Whole and Perfect Child of "The ONE" - God." This is what I wish to Ray-diate to all of you, today and every day: ~~~~~~~~~ Ray-diance ~~~~~~~~~ Love Light Joy Peace Passion Compassion Gratitude Harmony Laughter Fun Wisdom Power Presence Energy Happiness Healing Health Prosperity Abundance Affection Affirmation Positivity Optimism Possibility Spirit Christ Wholeness Unbounded Love for God and The Indescribable Experience of Oneness ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Ray-diator ☼ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (updated 11/8/2011)".
