Powerful Quotes by Itzhak

●       There is more to the world than the world that we see. In fact, what we see is just a small part of the whole cosmic world.

●       The world never really changes. It’s all about your perspective—how you see the world change.

●       If you want to create change in your life today, you don’t have to change what you do. You just have to change the focus of what you do.

●       If we want to change our society, before sending kids to college for four years, they should spend one year in another country and experience another language and culture, and to serve that community.

●       The basis of shamanic journeying is the ability to transcend your consciousness or awareness from the alpha state of mind into the beta, which is of a lower vibration. This quiets the mind and allows you to go into a dream state.

●       The shamanic work is about learning to transcend everyday consciousness into higher consciousness to bring information, knowledge, and tools to help us heal the physical, emotional, and spiritual body, and to heal the Earth.

●       Always follow your gut and never allow fear of others’ opinions stop you from fulfilling your life purpose.
