Fears as The Blocks that Dumb Us Down…Facing, Processing, Mastering

Fears As The Blocks that Dumb Us Down…Facing, Processing, Mastering.

Core spirituality, my personal journey

Why face fear with our intention?

When I look away, and stay in denial I am withholding something as a form of awareness that is mine to own and to be transformed. When I ignore those feelings that are telling me that something is not right, I remain in ignorance. When I refuse to see all before me and inside of me with clarity and honesty my spectrum of choices become very limited.

For me to make the most informed choices and decisions about anything I need to have all the facts that are pertinent and without facing fear this is just not possible. Facing fear by way of what holds me back, no matter how vague or undefined it may be, brings up details that widen and deepen my capacity to be informed.

This information is significant in that what we are afraid of or what holds us back about anything, may contain valuable knowledge for personal and planetary growth.

Much knowledge is withheld from our waking consciousness through the walls of fear.

The Walls of Fear based thinking.

I can look around the planet and watch how so many people are emotionally investing themselves in these barriers. Walls of fear that we cycle around and around not really getting through them into the core of the issues. The dominance of fear based manipulation by people on this planet is wide-spread and used to control and prevent progress. My own  unseen fear, my own refusal, or denial to see within myself resonates outward. This resonate frequency within my vibration attracts those fear based scenarios to me. This is how we get hooked in to other people’s fear based programming. By side tracking our own issues.

Progress which transcends the dynamic nature of conflicts, and those of forces of polarization that keep people in massive states of disharmony. This disharmony that side tracks more individuals and perpetrates cycles of more dysfunction all through the human species. This is the “why” we question, and the “why” situations arise that are uncomfortable and have their roots in some form of unconscious fear. This is also how we can observe that we are socialized in fear based paradigms of belief. Unspoken social agreements lived out by passively participating without internal questioning results in the “”sheeple effect. (“Sheeple” = masses of people blinding following!)

Heart openings

When we drop into our hearts we activate our natural capacity to be caring. This energizes all our other potentials to be responsible, accountable and to seek, find, and orchestrate the larger pictures in our lives. We do this by refusing to engage in the smaller picture and moving into the larger one that holds the possibility, the solution for harmony. Harmony born of conflict. New ideas, revelations, and directions open up. Those things that had been held outside our awareness in the closed heart positioning common in the “sheeple effect”. When we clear our opposing positions and polarizing conflicts through deeper more meaningful information our possibilities for solving huge problems becomes substantially improved. Without it, or rather by staying in our own little states of vague, cloudy, confusing fear we perpetrate and prolong all manner of suffering. This is not too smart. This does not express wisdom. Our problems appear to not go away. When actually we are feeding the problems with our own unconscious choices.

Horror movies, murder and so on…

The urge to look at fear is spread all through society, perpetrated in our television and movie industry, written about on blogs, and books and focused on by every major news organization on earth. It is filled with both fearful real and artificial scenarios. Though these things are not all real, they act as attention grabbers where we can remain at a distance from our real, deeper unexplored subconscious fear. When we unconsciously participate in any forms of this we become controlled by fear in ways that prevent us from going beyond it… into our most precious pure awareness of knowing who and what we truly are.

Feelings of fear

We all have fears, however what we are afraid of may not be that.

We allow ourselves to be motivated by fear and this costs each of us some price on some level of our lives. There is that time in our personal growth where the maturity of self seeks to understand feelings of fear rather than continue in the repression, and falsity, limitation, and dumbing down that this incurs. We choose to be accountable. The price I have learned that I pay when I allow real internal unprocessed fear to exist without self-reflection and discernment is staggering. Limiting, and takes away energy that could be used in more productive life pursuits.

Calling upon inner strengths, and willingness to hold the idea that I can move myself past it.

I have found countless times that in passing through the dismantling of whatever is  built into my own subconscious mind, I learn that what I thought I was afraid was not actually something for me to stay fearful about, the feelings of fear were real, the object of my fear was not and so I learned that fear is not my endgame. It never is!

Facing fear has been a part of the awakening of my consciousness… leading me to discover there are plenty of other fields of knowledge still to be learned. Continuing the game of dumbing down has become so uncomfortable that the courage and strength inside me has risen up. This is a crucial turning point for anyone as this is when inner forces gather to generate power, more personal power with which to conquer the fear based emotions. This kind of inner power, is connected to the indwelling spiritual self and as such has long-lasting and profound effects on the development and the direction of our lives.

The paradigm shift towards inner power and self-generated authentic spirituality

The discovery of our more meaningful spiritual nature is exhilarating, sometimes surprising, and always re-balancing.

The increase of the spiritual self has the capacity to shift our physiology, adjust our mindsets , heal our emotional hurts, and much more. These adjustments to our human expression are the aspects of our species evolutionary impulses and not merely our individual growth. This process occurs universally regardless of the particular station in life any human being may hold. Growth is always potentially rich, and ever-present to be expressed. The collective awakening of our beliefs, our actions, and our reactions, our history, and the directions this is all taking is now in full throttle on a mass level.

Choosing growth instead of suffering. Choosing growth thru our suffering!

We are facing down our ridiculous, immature, and small-minded fear. That we live in a polarized world means that we may learn in two basic ways here. Positive or negative. At some point as we clear away what it is we have inherited by way of our birth it becomes unnecessary to have to learn in the same negative ways. We choose our growth, and our choice to be open to learn positively lessens and shortens the negative sting of our shortsightedness.

Getting Real

I find myself feeling less than the ideal picture of myself whenever I malinger in my fears without inquiry. This less than ideal within drives me in a negative way and does not let up until I move into and through those things that scare me or that which holds me back and limit me. The negativity messages move around in my body detracting from my happy places until I act upon them to discover, process, and release the hold this puts on me.

There is real intention that rises up from the deeper places inside me driving me to pay attention to my own limiting fear based ideas, beliefs, and past experiences. The urge or deeper intention within me to face these things leads me to places where I have discovered that i felt  controlled beyond my own desire to be controlled. This deeper urge is a positive message and generates whole new possibilities that negative reactions do not.

And controlled by outside influences, whether they be societal, religious, moral, political, violent, and oppressive to name a few. The idea that an idea or belief that is not intrinsically from me, or is actually a part of me having a control factor over me or within me is very uncomfortable and I find even abhorrent. The nature of a less than spiritual congruence, undermining of deep strength, and loss of energy that arise from fears that have taken hold in the psyche is unacceptable to me. And so it is I find myself in a life long quest to discover, dismantle, disengage, and release myself over and over and over again. This requires an intentional follow through in my thoughts, deeds, actions to come to some inner peace within myself about anything that has fed a conscious or unconscious scared fearful feeling.

Physical fear held in the body and how it is depleting us.

Underneath the chattering mind and its negative  reasons for how things are the way they are those unchecked levels of fear that undermine the authenticity of self. Loss of drive, loss of energy, and the aches and pains, repetitive self-injury in the physical body can all signal unresolved feelings that I have held based on my beliefs about myself, beliefs about reality that are fear based and  held outside normal waking consciousness, rather there is a split inside us called the subconscious.

As a remedial massage therapist trained in practicing therapeutic bodywork with clients who present symptoms all the time I have learned to have a vigilant eye on how fears might be behind physical symptoms that repeat. As a transpersonal hypnotherapist I have seen how injuries that repeat, and frustrations about the body that arise from these pains, and loss of energy is a common symptom that alerts me to unconsciously held fear. The remarkable thing about this subject is the split we humans have in our consciousness…inside  our subconscious. We are learning to know more of ourselves in this current time line. Our subconscious is becoming conscious. And our vague unknowing is being replaced with real knowledge.

That our inner awareness can be running programs of fear simultaneously while we are loving, living, and engaging in all other aspects of our lives naturally is quite a paradox. This is very easy to see as an observer. This is an indication of how we split. (our disconnects )

Listening with clients I have found myself being prompted many times to open up dialogues that express fears. In this way providing outlets for the trapped energy to be released out of the body in some small way. Sometimes there comes the AHAA, and we recognize some aspects of a limiting thought or feelings that is actually based in fear and h holding a person back. These dialogues open up the withheld dynamics that are signaling inside as pain, and release to our awareness valuable new pieces of info that propel us forward. We learn to add to our self-knowledge like how a child puts together a puzzle. For this reason each step we take, each new data point adds to our overall return to wholeness. This is how sharing our stories and listening to one another will diffuse the momentum inside and cause us to hear ourselves.

The value of physical incarnation and the brilliance of how our physical bodies are designed.

I honestly see the physical body as a translator for the spiritual being within it. Translating all manner of mental, emotional, spiritual content.

When fears are anchored into the subconscious minds, they live in the body physical and exert their influences by way of pains, injuries and limitations. Patterns of self-injury, sabotage, and malingering unresolved maladies. The withheld potential that is inherent in a life situation remains unexpressed and dormant as an actual energy in the body. Without processing completely what it is we are learning on these various levels of our consciousness we experience all kinds of messages that go nowhere, circulating inside our tissues,organs and physiology. Shifting our capacity to experience our physical potentials.

I have found it fascinating to observe in the reality TV shows where people are losing weight just how this comes up for every person. At some point in their process there are emotional, attitudinal issues that arise usually from unresolved past histories. The intensive work out programs and deepening into physicality eventually reveal what is stored inside the body. Everyone has a story of some kind that they have been living, some pain that has held them back. They learn to come face to face with these issues in the body and transcend their previously held ideas. Not until they pass through the breakdown of the psychic walls inside them, and feel out all their feelings do they get to the deeper truth that is within them. This is a universal theme! Our stories are not finished because we stopped in fear sometime, somewhere, someway. Our stories do go on. And we learn how to rewrite them in new and better ways.

I cannot even count the number of times I have shared in dialogue with a client over the past 35 years of my practice when I recognized these kinds of disconnects in their faces. It is all too common that as I point out how what we think and feel within us is directly translating through us and put this into context with a particular issue a client is presenting to me with their physical body that I get blank stares, moments of disconnection, confusion, and rapid fire changing of the subject.

Our recent human histories.

We have been very out of touch with what we hold subconsciously inside ourselves and this is dramatically shifting as we learn to open and remember what was once held outside our waking awareness. Unaware of the fact that everything is connected inside us on different levels, and how it is with our minds that we separate it all. We can always choose to nurture our experience of connected-ness by choosing to drop into our hearts to find answers that are outside the intellectual mind!

Our sport, and medical models are so externally based that the connection to interior places in our feelings and thoughts contributing to how our physical bodies are functioning are typically minimized…  and minimally associated to the symptoms our bodies are expressing. Perhaps thousands of times in this lifetime I have asked a client in the intake segment of our session after they have expressed to me what is wrong, their symptoms, the places in their body where there is a problem, “what do you think is the cause of this?” I get blank stares, immediate lines like “I don’t know”, and I recognize an immediate disconnect with the person and their physical body.

Steps to take towards personal enlightenment

On a personal level when I experience these same kind of vague, unknown symptoms in my body I go within.

I quiet myself and ask my body directly what it is saying to me.

What are the feelings I am having that I have yet to identify?

I allow myself to go deeper into what the symptoms feel like and I stay within those feelings until I find answers.

I wait for words and pictures to tell me about what it is that is arising inside me that I am totally disconnected from but are expressing physically.

This is an amazing process that often leads to uncovering deeper fears in the human psyche that are running my life without my conscious knowledge. In this way my awareness serves my body, and my body expresses the deeper parts of myself with which I am about to integrate and learn all about. The resulting outcomes are a wider spectrum of emotions, feelings, thoughts, and beliefs and ideas. All of which add to my self-knowledge. And ultimately freeing me to be more independent and self-sovereign.

Our physical bodies are actually vehicles, vehicles to translate reality.

Our physical bodies are not what we were taught they are…. Translators of energy! Our brains are not the origins of our thoughts, the mental realm… pure thought is!

I know this as I have traveled outside my body many times in this life and I did not have a brain when I did so, yet I had mental thoughts. Our brains translate the thoughts we hold inside the energy body which is the real self this is within our mental field. Our feelings do not originate only in our physical body, they are coming from our emotional field.

Very interesting in my work I have often encountered feelings that have no substance whatsoever in the present day events, yet they present in the body. Memories are such that there is not any real physical thing now happening, yet all the feelings are there coming out of the emotional field of our spiritual substance and being expressed in the physical body!

Paradigm flips.

Once I realized that my body was translating material my entire paradigm shifted and I began the path of awareness that leads me to knowing myself not just as a body, but as a spiritual being having a human experience living within a physical form! Whenever we uncover a new paradigm we start all over from a new perspective. This new way of seeing things places all the components of our questions into a new order and whole new pictures start to evolve. This is how what is called the “higher mind” aspect of ourselves begins to integrate. This takes time and often will result in needed rest, naps, and or longer periods in solitude and reflection. a much more sophisticated mental awareness develops!

Our bodies carry information that is passed to us from our ancestors via genetic coding.

Our choices in the present moment about this information can switch on and off the different components of our DNA, and we can activate whole new genetic pieces of information this way.

I found it fascinating that in recent genetic studies with identical twins born with the same exact genes, checked 20 years later those exact genes were different. They no longer carried the same genetic messages as they did when they were born. This was attributed to the differing choices that each twin made and these choices switched on or off certain genetic messages.

The Soul

I have also discovered how the soul choice for a physical body creates our experiences. In that the levels our soul needs to learn choose the DNA starts and potentials in the family of origin we are born into. This assures a particular focus for the incarnation and protects the soul intentions to learn specific things, and express in certain ways. the choices we make with what we have is more important than the actual content, once we get going with each life time. Those choices determine what DNA switches on and off through out our lives! The question becomes for me “what more can I switch on inside my genetic code through my choices?”

Fear as a defining character trait…do we really want this?

Whether you know it or not your fear becomes a defining character trait. As horrible a wake up call can be I truly learned how true this is.

In my discussions with clients and friends over the years, and my own personal inner reflections, I have observed how it is we actually defend our fears when exposed, or confronted. This defense is part of an inner dynamic within us that we use to logically suspend ourselves because of our resistance to change. And that resistance to change is actually our resistance to process because of our discomfort.

Our resistance to process our fears has an element of  terror and as such holds us back from our purest selves… the core spirituality that is us on the deepest levels of our being. These postures are held in check by the smaller parts of ourselves…. our ego’s!

As humans we live in so many agreements that have been put into place when we are in our earlier egoic developments. We grow up unaware that we do not see the greater value in a more mature self honesty. A self-honesty that pierces through the illusions, logical fears, and limiting beliefs we have learned to be complacent to or comfortable within ourselves. Thus we become shaped by these fears as people. As groups, and as nations and finally as a species!

Whenever I catch myself defending my fear… I say good. It is a really good thing to notice. Because there is unconscious thinking inside those defenses. I want to get to those things. In my past when I stayed in denial, my relationships would point out the hidden things inside my defenses and I would become even more defensive, distant, and combative. This is a common occurrence with loved ones, family members and people who know us. They see what we do not about ourselves. I have learned to observe and listen to myself better. This cut down on many outer problems my own unconsciousness was causing.

Our many masks. Why the masks we wear need defining.

These fear based character developments masquerade in our lives as all kinds of things they really are not.

They become entrenched in our sense of personal self, our ego structures and lead to what I call… ego take overs. ( see previous writing on the topic of Ego Takeovers)

Ego take overs take over many of the other components of our character and dominate our personalities. Thus we have all the power issues in the world manifesting now. Clashes of power,

power take overs,

stealing of power,

power mongering,

power plays.

Loss of power…

The political, social climates of our world are virtually filled with these situations. We can learn to observe the many faces in the world society of these ego driven forces and learn to refocus on our own sovereignty by learning to do what is called “inner work” . This inner work acts as a buffer and stops the resonate field of attraction which generates more of the same. We have the choice to detoxify our selves. Much of what is arising now is very toxic. Providing a perfect setting for clearing and much-needed healing. Learning to face the masks we all wear and discover the greater self underneath!

It is interesting to me how this happens so naturally in humans. When we are invested in fear, we masquerade it as something else. This is so common in my experience that I have learned to tread lightly in the therapeutic setting with clients. (And I have found myself doing the exact same things) I find myself gob smacked whenever I encounter myself in a masquerade, as I usually did not even realize I was acting out some kind of role, instead of expressing myself authentically.

Social agreements that support fear

Simply watching what is reported as news each day reveals to me the tremendous amount of social agreements we invest into that support fear and how easily people will believe the masks so many wear.

Fear that we actually create and perpetrate by socially allowing ourselves to emotionally invest into these dramas. I watch as politics are used to sway people and hold them in fear. I watch as religion leaders use fear to sway people and hold them in fear.

I watch as scientists group together and promote their versions of reality and this sways people and holds them in fear, disconnected from the broader real reality of the cosmos.

I watch as business such as pharmacology perpetrate fear that hold people outside the greater truth of their bodies and our inner capacity to heal ourselves.

Sport

While sport has many valuable sides to it like personal development, learning about the human body, camaraderie, goal setting along with achievement on an individual level.

I question some of the elements of organized sports and look into the darker side of what we have created on a social basis.

I watch as sport enthusiasts use sports to drive their own egotistical agendas, make money, and promote the use of sport as a well-meaning, healthy human character trait. Yet I ask myself how healthy is it when someone always must lose?  ( perpetrating “either/or ” binary style of thinking.) The perpetration that competition is always healthy  can and does become over emphasized and dominates our societal agreements leading us into many habitual forms of behavior and becomes a lingering subconscious strategy to maintain  masses of people in mindsets of subjugation and conflict .

Subjugation as in agreements that support  human values of superiority, dominance, win/lose strategies, control, over powering, and so on… all in good fun? Yea right! Not actually, these strategies, these habits hold humans in forms of thinking of limitation outside the grander spectrum of human capability and cause patterns of repeating over and over again.. I find it crazy. These styles of thinking overlap into other areas of life with much consequence to our relationships.

The themes of dominance, over powering, and profiting that flow over into business, personal relationships, and basic human living do not embrace the large spectrum of universal spiritual values necessary to generate a world where everyone, and everything is evenly distributed. The huge imbalance of human resources, time, energy, and planetary goods remains constant. As a species we do not always see how our very thoughts and feelings overlap to each other, and across the world. Our thinking is what charges these situations with energy and so this is where it goes.

Group fear and petty tyrants, ego take overs, and control maniacs

Whole nations, global religious organizations, large segments of populations all over the world are living in group fears of all kinds. Loss of services  and resources, proliferation of war, lack of food, political oppression, political control agendas, domination, stifling of creativity. It is obvious to me that this is greatly out of balance, is not working, has not worked for generations. I refuse to invest my own personal energy into any forms of ego based policies, take overs, or agendas being fed to us under the many masks of good will. The un-balancing of human resources alone, the perpetual states of conflict, and the sheer levels of human poverty do not express the real values of spiritual wellness.

Petty tyrants that run banks, run businesses, run local governments, run their military all exert influences that seek control of some kind at us. The proportion of our world society that is held in some form of bondage, or subjugation and control is overwhelming. The few that exert dominance, conflict and control on the many is staggering. Money alone as a system on this planet serves the few while making workers out of the many. The levels of corruption, lies, deceit, and misuse that are coming to light now reveal the larger aspect of how money has been used for centuries to exert a “worker-force” of humans to supply the few. It is abhorrent to me how we have learned to accept this as normal. As a spiritual being I find myself pulling out of and away from any and all of the societal agreements we have around the value of money in this way. My personal value in life has nothing to do with how much or how little I have. This situation has undermined the basic spiritual value of an entire species of spiritual beings on this planet for thousands of years. I wonder how long it will continue! This is simply pure distortion!

Our group consensus to perpetrate fear under the guise of heroism, good will, with overt and covert tyrannical systems is like a virus in our human species. One for example is warring. That our government has perpetrated some form of war for 200 hundred years shows me that someone is adamant about making money, having control, dominating others, thwarting resources and really doesn’t care very much about the common man and woman, and child.

The amount of resources used in perpetrating war machinery  overrides every other aspect of our social and group well-being. At the expense of all of us, this planet, and the animals! Those behind the scenes of this are what I call control maniacs.

They represent themselves as just the opposite and want us to believe it. I do not. I refuse to accept that war, dominance, and submission are character traits that I want to live by. I refuse to buy into the many political agendas that perpetrate war, rather  I look at the real causes of oppression, suppression, and the unbalanced proportion of goods all over the world. Power issues are only the tip of the iceberg.

People need basic materials to have a happy, enriched environment with which to create life. How these factions of war mongering continue to fracture, break up, and pit one people against another is truly an ego maniac dream come true, filled with psychopathic leaders and their ego take over completely selfish agendas!

When oppressive societies rise up and individuals begin to feel their sense of true sovereignty.

I find it fascinating how forces of government, political leaders, religious leaders and teachers will exert power over whole groups of people anytime they attempt to exert real personal choice, personal sovereignty! I am not so certain that all the people who participate in carrying out these things actually realize what they are doing. Their own unconsciousness is often something they do not realize, as they would not truly do to other humans what they are doing to them? Would they if they were not brain washed, and driven by their own subconscious programming?

I mean, what the heck are those guys up in the sky thinking when they fill the sky with chem-trails? They are not, they are not thinking. There is a disconnect!

There is tremendous unconsciousness here, and yet this is a good example of how people are controlled through fear and do not even know they are! How many people just want to keep the bread on the table?  My sense is the majority of people perpetrating these actions would not do it were they connected, and self realized as spiritual beings having this human experience. There is a huge degree of human brainwashing and hypnosis in all this negative behavior.

Real fear as a warning, discernment about all our fears. Know the difference!

When fear is a signal of distress, danger, and there is a need for real action to address this, fear is a discernment we all must learn to make. We have to and must pay attention!There is real fear and there is false fear!

Fears that are self-generated, or inherited, or educated into us without real basis are some of the kinds of discernment up for re deciding. Safety and harmony are maintained when we take care of the dangerous aspects of life. I am in no way thinking that we must eliminate, ignore, or disengage with fear. Simply put I want to define it and reveal the actual causes of it in myself and then make appropriate choices. How real is what I am fearful, though my feelings are real, it is a discernment to realize. So much of what we think we need to be afraid of is not that at all.

Family fear and how we perpetrate these fears. Our starting points in life.

Unconscious programming is passed thru us via our behaviors and experiences within our families. Each family has a different perspective it is living out with themes, patterns, and directions. Our soul choice to incarnate into the particular family we are born into has much to do with these things. Frequently we come into these families as starting points for our need to learn as spiritual beings, and then we will transcend those conditions. By willingly going along with family patterns of fear based beliefs we perpetrate them to the next generations. My own experience of this is dramatic. There was a time when I pulled away from my birth family as the most loving thing I could possibly do for myself and there were those who insisted I was doing the exact opposite. It took years for some of them to realize the loving choices I made to disengage from family dynamics that I felt were toxic.

Family carries stories. Our stories carry our family based fears and we pass these along to our children and they pass them on to theirs whenever we allow ourselves to submit and perpetrate these histories. We do this as a kind of family character trait and act as if it is all normal. I choose to catch myself doing this as much as I can and to regroup, reevaluate, and re-decide at any time I need to. And our genes hold these stories and bring up inside us all the emotional patterns of our birth families. By way of conscious knowledge and better choices once we realize what our emotional patterning is we may, we can change this. This will switch on and off different genetic messages within us. Redirecting our future possibilities. We all have observed family members sharing the same emotional genetic patterning choosing differently and then having different outcomes because of how they choose to deal with these patterns.

Fear mongering

Fear mongering is the deliberate act of causing, exaggerating and repeating harm using fear based tactics to achieve control. Using fear to persuade people through their vulnerabilities and cause splits, divisions and chaos. This fear mongering engages us the more we are out of touch with our own inner sense of self. Otherwise this will distract. Fear mongering as a distraction tactic is widely used to actively engage in covert activities all over the world. Much of the contents of our daily news is filled with this kind of fear tactic. Driving the attention of billions of people away from their inner sense of authentic attention to what is real and focusing them on danger. It is a basic, primal feeling that has all of us to paying attention to danger and not going inside to our hearts for solutions. Fear mongering using this innate sense to manipulate and control while redirecting our attention to what may actually be happening. This is an effective method to use in order to dissuade real connection and inner self-awareness in humans. Many individuals are participants in this method and do not realize it. Not only are there serious political activities like this there are marketing ones too. The use of fear mongering in religious doctrines alone control billions of people without them having a clue.

Fear hidden in religious doctrines, dogmas, and how we learn to submit

Threats about the after life that cause harm and submission! If you do this then you will go to hell. If you do that you will go into a bottomless pit for eternity, if you express yourself in any way not keeping with the dogmas and doctrines of many religious teachings you are told you will have to suffer and burn in hell.

This is a distortion of the truth.

I know because I have visited the hell’s associated with this world with my spiritual guides in my own out-of-body experiences. I learned how we ourselves create hell. God does not do this to us. Nor was there a hell created for this purpose. The hell and damnation taught by religious doctrines and dogmas has been perpetrated as a fear mongering method to control people. This is a twisted version of the actual reality.

What I learned was that there is a natural law of the cosmos called action and reaction. This action/reaction causes us to experience the effects of our own negative actions as a means of learning something. Thus it is true that what we put out comes back. We are the source, on some level of whatever we experience. Everything returns to source and that includes source within each one of us!

The hell’s I visited developed out of the accumulations of millions of thoughts of people stuck in negative scenarios after they left their bodies at the moments of death. This caused a widening in the field of this planet that is called the astral realm. I saw, felt, and witnessed the horrible and very sad states of individuals in these places. Places that feel just as real as here once you are in them. But one very valuable aspect of this experience that I observed many times was how the consciousness of the person shifted in these hell’s. Once there became an opening out of the despondent hopeless nature, and self punishing, twisted sense of self, release happened.

This release would manifest according to the belief system of the person in the hellish bondage. If they were Christian… then an angel, or Jesus would extend a holy light to them and pull them out. If their belief system was directly connected to their core spiritual nature, their own inner light would pull them out. We call this redemption. It is a kind of resurrection of the individual. I watched as they rose out of the planes of suffering into more planes of harmonious light. As I watched this I could feel the nature of the darkened planes as those of self-created miseries. It was an obvious thing to see there. I also experienced my own aspect deep within a hell of this kind and the awful state of despair and powerlessness. I also experienced the uplifting release and transformation of that aspect of me. It is an experience never to be forgotten, as the return to true spiritual self is beyond words in description…. it is ecstatic and joyful!

The same experiences hold true for us on this plane. Not as extreme here on Earth, as when you leave your body and completely immerse yourself in a hell. But the dynamics of the miseries, the suffering, the pain that we unconsciously generate stay with us until we learn to shift. And shift into a better state. Probably just about every human alive has at one time or another descended into their own living hell on earth. And then rose out of it. Coming out of our own hell’s, when we finally make it out we bring with us tremendous new awareness’s. We integrate new compassion’s, new love, new understandings. It is an amazing experience. We have our descents and our ascents through our fears. We need to notice how this works and direct ourselves appropriately with understanding about how nature really functions. I have replaced my old beliefs in religious doctrines and dogmas of hell and damnation, pain and suffering with my experiences of how it really works.

Love is the dominant, prevailing, and omnipresent force not damnation and hell.

Most of the people who perpetrate these doctrines do so out of their belief in them, not their personal soul experience. If they were truly connected to the indwelling soul self they would not subject others to this method what so ever. Loving accountability, action and reaction and truthful telling of how the spiritual nature of the cosmos would be the teaching. Many pure little children have been subjected to these teachings at times when they themselves were at their purest and most vulnerable places in life. These teachings go deep into the psyche and then go underground into the subconscious mind as adults.

I worked with this particular issue of religious programming as a therapist. Working with people who had chronic sickness. Working with people who had deep complicated issues that traditional therapy was not reaching. In my hypnotherapy practice I studied and practiced religious deprogramming techniques designed specifically to address the issues I mentioned above. I was astonished to observe in clients the highly charged, emotionally based fear doctrines taught to them as children. Internalized so completely as a result of continuous repetition by well-meaning care givers. Internalized so deeply that these teachings replaced the actual inner voice of the adult. The result was an inability to authentically express their deeper unsettling emotions. The locks inside the psyche that went into place that prevented these adults from access to their genuine anger, sadness, fear and intrinsic inner truth along with  countless other emotions was riveting.

Pointing out the falseness of these teaching while accessing the authentic emotions underneath them accessed much-needed inner power and resolve to tackle the real problems associated with chronic sickness and debilitating mental and emotional states. The unresolved emotional landscapes underneath the physical symptoms.  I watched as client after client went into remission or passed beyond the horrendous difficulty in their therapeutic process. The transformations were miraculous. Once a person regains authentic inner connection to real feelings, and develops the awareness of discernment and learns to articulate and express genuine feelings the entire physical body responds in kind.The mental landscape of the individual clears out ! And a whole new level of homeostasis develops. A completely empowered and authentic spiritual nature moves in to replace the false, toxic belief system and the person is restored!This is a sight to see with your own eyes as the transformation is magnificent, truly magnificent!

Submitting and suppressing our most precious pure selves. The loss of true identity!

What we lose sight of by investing into fear based thinking is our most precious pure self. That is that in us that is below the surface of everything in the core. The core self. When we allow fear to guide our actions we lose the natural effectiveness of our precious pure self and that fear based thinking reshape all our actions and shifts the outcomes and directions of our lives.

To return to our most pure self is a beautiful and powerful experience where we become congruent inside us. We stop splitting ourselves up and conflicts become resolved more effectively, more naturally, more rapidly.

Loss of spiritual integrity, soul integrity, and connection with all of life

When we lose our inner connections in these ways we allow ourselves to make choices out of fear alone we lose sight of the natural spiritual integrity inherent in any situation. The fear masks many details of authentic  spirituality and as such twists and distorts authentic experiences of that which is spiritual. Our soul integrity is held at a distance while our ego based thinking engaged in fear directs our lives.

This cuts up the true interconnection we all have with one another and with life. And for this reason we prevent ourselves from seeing the larger picture. There is some fear controlling a person whenever there is a loss of connection to this large aspect of life. Distance from soul self generates feelings of powerlessness, loss, loneliness, and separation. Anxiety takes the place of our true loving spiritual presence. Repeating levels of anxiety of this kind can signal the need to question what it is we are afraid of and why. Tensions that do not resolve themselves take the place of authentic inner calm.

How fear limits attention, limits awareness, and takes away from creativity

Unconscious fears limit our capacity to pay attention to deeper more significant information that is available to any of us. Fear limits our awareness by dumbing down our awareness and limiting it . Differences are difficult to accept and this undermines our creativity. Without creativity we are doomed to repeat and repeat our life situations generating cycles of frustration and powerlessness. For this reason intentionally facing what holds us back is very important. We have the capacity to unlock all of our conundrums through the choices we make to step out of our fears and work towards dismantling their limiting effects.

We hide from fear, fear notions are designed to hide from us
We avoid fear…. no… we actually hide from it. And likewise our fears seem to hide from us. It is a great cat and mouse game humans play. This hiding from our fears cause set backs and repeating situations to occur over and over again. Cycles of repetition become the norm. A powerful spiritual message surfacing in the masses today is STOP HIDING! It is not necessary to hide your true self, your real emotions, and your deepest longings. Reveal to yourself! Let yourself come undone, or be undone. It is your choice how painful this will be. Whenever I notice a part of myself hiding I bring in love. Fear parts of ourselves cower in darkness, and misunderstanding. Inner conflicts are the results as these parts hold back the natural creative depth of our true inner selves. Loving oneself at this point is a mandatory step. Millions of people are now learning all over again how to love themselves and each other. We are learning to let love in, to let love guide, to let love have its way with us. This is a truly transformational thing to realize. Going through it feels miraculous and amazing. Where it is leading is unknown.

How in charge can you be when you are submitting to fear?

Not too much, though it may appear like it temporarily. Petty tyrants are the best example of this one. I have had my share of them. And I always learn to much. The thing is petty tyrants remain in the conditional states of their own fear based agendas, while those who finally get away, or out from them actually move forward in the life. Without the fear! This has been a liberating experience for me to observe and grateful I have been many times after releasing myself from these controls.

How loving can you be when you are submitting to fear?

Not to your full potential that is for sure. Love has a powerful way in life. Love, real love will usually teach us, lift us, release us from the limiting conditions of our previously self-created fear and transforms. How life looks to you may signal the real truth of your love. I always check this with myself. Am I free? If not I know that I have a way to go in the love departments. Without true inner freedoms my love is still conditional and controlled.

Splitting the human into pieces and how this detracts from our greater experience of  truth

Loaded subconscious thoughts and feelings that overtake our lives is what this looks like. The more unconscious material I can make conscious the better. There is a timing to this which protects the personality so that we do not become completely over taken by the subconscious. However much of our lives is still being governed by it. These splits are manifested outwardly in the splits we see around us in our humanity. The splitting, division of our species now undermines our collective experience of having truth as a whole planetary body. Imagine how it will be when the entire species has reached that quantum level. How differently the whole world would be. For this reason I do my part, with myself. I cannot do yours. We each have our own part in this unfolding process of life.

Committing to healing our fear consciously by choosing not to let it suppress you

The result of facing fear in myself has developed a commitment. A commitment to not suppress. This shifted all my relationships and was at that turning point a huge pivoting of my life expression. Choosing not to suppress myself required a whole new set of boundaries in all my relationships. These new boundaries moved people around in my life. Move me around as I found myself attracted to or repelled in new ways. I learned to take in much consideration to those closest to me so as to not be offensive. And to allow more time and space for them to process how it is I was choosing to be. The most significant thing though has been how many new people came into my life. These new people had different expectations, different boundaries, and were focused in more mutuality.

The breaking of hypnosis in the human collective

The dismantling of the false layers of self, the false beliefs, the false social agreements, the false ideas associated with so many aspects of our humanity are revelatory. I am less of a follower of others. Yet I am in good company. With more people following their inner soul voices, there is a remarkable stability among-st the chaos. There is a bonding, and understanding. There is a mutual recognition, and willingness.

The returning to Source

All returns to source. This is life. This is reality. This is how the cosmos runs. This is in effect here on this planet. What returns to source can be transformed, transcended, and completely transmuted. We simply need to remember that each person here is a point in Source! And that everything in everyone is returning to that source point, the source we share. The great paradox to get over is: we are one, we are many. Source within each of us is having this experience.

The direct experience of Source is Unmistakable. I could write a chapter on this alone. i have had the experiences of Source within me and i have traveled so far beyond the known universe into the the great cosmic sun,  the source for our own galaxy, our own universe. The love that this source has is beyond description, beyond words, beyond even holding so great a love it is! It fuels whole universes that to my observation was beyond comprehension.  For now I will say that the best experience of facing what holds me back, the fears is the experiences of the source-field, the amazing brilliant intelligence and love that is source. Within and outwardly, this is truly an amazing experience of living life as a spiritual being having a human experience. The fulfillment of all things, knowledge restored, and connection enhanced. The full circle moments, and the endless opportunities to get it right. It is all worth it. Every single bit!

Set backs! Life Moving backwards? Reoccurring Dramas…OH My!!!

Set backs! Life moving backwards? Reoccurring Dramas … oh my!!!!

core spirituality, my personal journey

What is a set back… really?

Redefining an old problem like a set back can lean you into and open up whole new levels of personal information once we make the shift. The shift out of the frustration and limitation and disappointment that typically arise from our set backs.

So what could be another reason for a set back? A set back comes to you because you are moving too quickly and have set up unrealistic expectations from the beginning. The set back will slow you down and even halt you. These set backs provide extra time for you to re decide, re think the circumstances within the dynamics of your situation. The larger forces that hold you, the larger part of yourself puts a hold on things because of the way you are moving forward with the ideas you have in mind are not going to manifest as you think they are. The final outcome is not going to be what you planned, and you have to make adjustments.

Corrections need to made in order to bring the outcomes you have in mind.

The set back is a zone of extra time that provides for you the space to observe and make those corrections. Welcoming a set back for what it truly is will smooth out the frustrating conditions you have and will open you to recognizing something you have missed up to now. Set backs are for your own good, your own well-being. Sometimes it is a matter of timing, sometimes it is in the structure of your design, sometimes it is just some detail that needs adjusting so that what you think is going to happen can happen. I know that when I encounter my own set backs I have been moving too rapidly and I must slow down and make readjustments or I had set up unrealistic expectations or both. It’s that simple.

Moving backwards is really moving forwards, learning to get a grip on reality

There is no real moving backwards however it feels like it. We are moving forwards by dipping down into something we bring up from our past that needs processing. A past incident, or the sense of moving backwards arises when there are details of our story that have been missed, obscured to our awareness, and we need to take a fresh new look and find out something new in an old situation. This can only happen in our “now”moment. Whenever an old drama shows up again in my now moment I take a look at what I may have missed before.

That old drama is back again, now what do I do?

Be open to it. Stay open, be receptive, and feel stuff.

There are a lot of pieces of valuable information contained in us that we habitually skip over. We sometimes need to have a review so that we can learn what it is we have missed all along.

Dramas do not repeat themselves once they have completed unless you are realizing your final testing in that set up. From a spiritual point of view we will test ourselves to find out if there are any emotional, mental charges still sitting inside us around any one drama. Once we find that we have managed every highly charged aspect we carry around a drama and there no longer is upset, or emotional charge, my experience is that the drama recedes. The drama no longer pulls you off your path. I have found that I actually can laugh where once I was crying or horrified, and I find that I have gratitude replacing all the previous uncomfortable feelings I was in the grips of inside myself. There is a new neutrality and an understanding.

While this has been my own experience with old dramas that reappear, it is not the case with those individuals with whom the drama was being acted out. I realize that not everyone gets the awareness of the situation all at the same time. Thus another person or persons can still be enslaved by the components of a particular drama for some time afterwards without realizing all that the drama could teach them.

We all have our own timing in the awakening process of life. I have learned to accept this about us and not hold grudges or negativity with those people still stuck in the learning experiences of a drama.

The meaningful purpose of going within to find answers

We don’t always get to the meaningful purpose of set backs and dramas when we are engaged on the surface with our contemporaries. Our socialization process has brainwashed most of us to seek and find validity in our conclusions through agreements in numbers. Instead of our own individual conscience, or inner knowledge. And for this reason the act of self-reflection, observation, and going deeper is necessary to resolve our own unanswered questions about our involvements in any set backs or dramas that keep showing up in our lives. The deeper layers of our emotions, our core feelings, and our intuitions all hold valuable new levels of information that will balance out these scenarios.

Not necessarily for everyone but surely for yourself.

Taking our dramas apart to find what is deep inside us

Set backs and dramas are connected to important issues for which we are born to face as spiritual beings having a human experience. Our conundrums, difficulties, and personal challenges all have deeper meaning and significance to our over all spiritual selves. We are meant to solve the problems, figure them out and learn new things. Not just suffer, and repeat. ( or be punished as some doctrines and dogmas are teaching)

Thus to make time to take apart the components of our painful dramas will start the process of going deeper inside ourselves. Learning to observe with a keener eye to details, and to find what is it about a set back or drama that hooks us.

These hooks in our psyche’s are our deeper places of potential self knowing and provide valuable information for which we must be willing to dive deeper, see more, and accept what it is we have not about ourselves.

There are aspects of ourselves for which we have turned away, refused to accept, or denied. These reoccurring dramas are our wake up calls to our inner spiritual development. They cannot just be willed away, they need to be embraced and processed and we then learn from them. Be prepared to have your lens of perception shift, often it has been our perceptual lens that filtered out meaningful info. Here is where you get the realizations that begin to infuse your awareness with new possibilities. We learn to see differently!

How our life situations are really our own set ups

Typically when we form situations and then they turn into dramas that wont go away we did so in some way that has been unconscious. This lack of self-awareness built the circumstances that are in those dramas. When they return they do so by returning to a source in the dynamic. It is our own part in the drama that becomes the issue and so we learn to look again. This is our own set up and we set it up. We do this to ourselves. Yet we don’t realize this at the beginning until we have to suffer through the results of our actions in any repeating scenario. And the situation comes back to us.

It does so because of some part that we played in it. Now we get another chance to clean it up, look at it with a fresh perspective and re decide.

Our spiritual nature is set up so that everything returns to its source. This is a universal component of the cosmos. This quality filters through all life. And so with our unresolved issues…. they come back to us because in some way we are the creators of them. As co creators in life we are spiritually filled with integrity even when our personalities are not yet, our spiritual nature makes sure we stay congruent to our actions and returns situations back to us to complete. The dramas in our lives stop repeating when we complete our sides of the equation in those dramas. And then and only then do we get unhooked!

Unconsciousness and lack of awareness… turning away from our own depth of self

By looking away, ignoring, staying in denial, by separating ourselves humans think they can get away from their creations, their dramas. Avoiding all responsibility for co creating. This is just so not true. I have myself had the experience of doing all of these things. I moved across the world to another country where they did not even speak English, and I knew only a few people. What showed up at a party? A person who had the same issues, the same attraction to me, the same drama! Ugggh! I could not believe it at the time. How was this possible I asked myself ? Yet I learned that the cosmos is so congruent, so real and so capable that it provided to me, and I attracted to myself the very same drama I left behind. I did this because I was holding all the patterns inside me and still vibration ally the same. I was a walking magnet for specific dramas. What a realization. I learned to become more conscious and look more deeply inside myself so I could find out how to get unhooked from my drama. I had to face my own denial.

Denial and the painful price we pay by insisting on being stuck

Our humanity is filled with pain and suffering which results in repeating life dramas, all kinds of toxic addictions, and strange mental diseases.

Deep within us is some kind of denial about our creations.

Denials about our parts we play in the ongoing unfolding of circumstances in our lives. Our denials exact a tremendous price of disharmony. When we begin to realize how it is we are each co creating our lives via our choices we begin to go to new levels of capability that reveal the true spiritual power that lies within us as spiritual beings having a human experience.

The remarkable spiritual ability we all have to get through

As we brake away from denials we learn to embrace our place. We can learn new things and our capacity to hold what we resisted becomes enhanced. Through new inner powers of courage and maturity we develop new skills with which to embrace dramas. Insight, clarity, and deeper feelings all start moving into our interior and the spiritual energies within us start to catalyze our personalities in powerful new ways.

When we step out of the hypnotized brain washing socialization many of us have been through and begin to investigate our own spiritual nature we find we have more energy. This energy gets UN-tethered to dramas and is free for us to co create so much more and so much better. Our hearts respond naturally as vehicles of knowledge and wisdom. We begin to learn to care in new ways.

The new places our caring will take us

The new ways our caring will infuse us is with self-love and love for others. By moving aside the harsh and limiting aspects of our nature to reveal our larger ability to care more deeply. Caring more deeply sustains us when it gets really hard to withstand the viewing of our own creations, our parts. When we have been unconscious or we turned away. The painful self realizations we must pass through are buffered by the caring loving heart that simultaneously opens and illuminates our character. Providing us a broader perspective with which to solve our problem with any repeating drama. Our heart-felt illuminations free our limiting thinking minds.

Opening our hearts and freeing ourselves from our own minds

The power of our thinking minds to hold us in enslavement is quite remarkable. What we invest into by way of our thinking, of our beliefs that were formed out of thought is staggering. Often in my work I have encountered people who are totally taken over by the powers of their linear, logical thinking minds. This habit of putting so much of ourselves into our minds and holding ourselves there is a common social and cultural experience that is strengthened by group agreements. Our minds can loop us around in dramas like crazy. My experience is that once the heart openings begin that this causes a relocation of logical mind out of its control over us and causes a new place where the mind learns to interpret the heart messages. Using intellect in this way integrates both the qualities of the thinking mind with the heart mind. Freeing our attachments to thinking. This will lead us to new practices of authentic personal sovereignty quite naturally for each of us. This natural exchange of new skills integrates the new into our lives in practical ways that take care of our places in any reoccurring dramas.

Learning new ways and practicing personal sovereignty

These new skill sets develop our characters and abilities in fascinating new ways. In my case one of the first new skills I gained was listening. Instead of insisting on always having my point of view heard, I learned how wonderful it is to listen without adding my point of view. This shifted all my relationships. And particularly my inner relationship as I learned to listen more deeply to my own inner urges, intuitions, and the wise wisdom that would appear in me while engaged in any dramas. Insight in the way of unspoken pictures, words, feelings, and messages start to appear in the mind which start informing in a way that adds to our capacity to understand, accept, embrace, and care more deeply those people and situations. People and situations that in the past may have triggered negativity now inform positively. As personal sovereignty develops so does interior richness of our innate spiritual nature.

The shifting of our relationships

When we go into our set backs, and recurring dramas with our spiritual nature intact and informing us with all these new pieces of information I have found the dynamics of my relationships have shifted. For one thing I have virtually little of the dramas I used to in my closest circles. The amount of love we share has increased on a daily basis on a scale I can hardly describe or measure. I had no idea how full the world is with loving caring people. They, we… are everywhere in all walks of life and show up in any moment. I have found it astounding how loving individuals show up in my world who are complete strangers who share their loving selves with me. In lines at grocery store, at the gas station, clients, formerly hostile family members… at any moment around any bend there can be a loving being that will meet up with us and strengthen us on our path. Amazing how this happens over and over again.

Globally we have many set backs and certainly many recurring dramas.

These situations are being perpetrated by individuals who invest into these things intentionally and unconsciously for personal gain at the expense of others . Perpetrating them so as to cause more suffering, more capacity for ego take overs. The continuous repetition on a world-wide basis of drama is a way in which we are swayed from looking into our dramas and led to believe we are victims.

These victimization dilemmas will recede more and more as individuals learn the true significance of these situations in our own personal daily lives.

As we pull ourselves away from the insistence on participating in repeating dramas we discover new and better situations. And this we have to do on a personal level. In this way our personal lives really do make a difference and we stop what it is that makes us crazy.

Our own personal accountability and inner responses drive forward what is happening in our shared reality. We dismantle toxic set ups, and dramas and replace them with our own versions of healthy ones. We are able to watch this in our own little lives and as we cultivate this to larger and larger degrees and it becomes apparent how this is all interconnected and shaping our external reality.

Our choices to live in drama or out of drama, to realize how our set backs have significance all lead us toward our next possibility. By virtue of that choice we make we can either live in frustration and pain and suffering repeating over and over still even more, or we can choose differently and learn to go deeper into our own inner knowledge and find our own new purposeful new choices. It is a choice that is with each one of us.

EGO Take-overs !…, Our Life Shifts Possible From Ego Awareness? … Core Spirituality, my personal journey of self investigation

EGO Take-overs !…, Our Life Shifts Possible From Ego Awareness? … Core Spirituality, my personal journey of self investigation

Help!!!!!!! My own ego has taken me over and I can’t get up!

Conflicts, pain, suffering, confusions, and misunderstandings mixed with power issues. This is terrible! How frequently does my own ego jump in and take over me? And how covert is this anyway? Do other people’s egos over power you? Not only in the general public but also within the spiritual community.

Ego awareness is a tremendous form of self-awareness that opens us to our most valuable inner qualities. Looking into what and how our ego’s take hold and identifying behaviors can be an unnerving yet a most amazing way to get to our deepest authentic self. I decided to write down some of my own ego places and what I have learned by applying self honesty and getting to know my ego.

First of all I want to start by saying the ego is not bad, does not need to killed, erased or eliminated. The ego needs to learn… and to learn how to fit in with rest of the self. The path of the ego is the path of balancing the self in human form. There is nothing wrong with it until you become too uncomfortable, and then it is time to grow. It is the growth of consciousness within us and the balance we learn by applying self-awareness. Particularly ego awareness! That juxtaposes our egos into the best position within us to navigate our lives!

What is the ego?

The ego is that part of our consciousness that develops as singularity of self inside our consciousness and thus is the beginning of the development of our self-identity, self awareness and personal sense of individuality. The ego learns how to get by in the world, and typically sees itself as separate from everyone and everything.

The ego is a starting point for us and need not be the end point of our lives. We are all born into a spectrum of acting out as babies, little egos in the world discovering life.

In the beginning an ego thinks it is the sum total of ourselves… it thinks it is THE SELF! The ego learns to define life from its particular individualized point of view and is a valuable aspect of our human development, yet it is only one aspect of ourselves. I know I am in my ego state when I am seeing life as separate, am convinced in supporting opposing points of view that perpetrate power over others, with more separation scenarios and I am supporting more points of view that perpetrate unnecessary fear, and when I am caught in the act of diminishing others.

We all have had our journeys through our ego’s, and the ego’s of other people… parents, siblings, teachers, those in authority, politicians, scientists, specialists, pastors, religious leaders, leaders of all kinds. This planet is virtually overwhelmed with egotistical voices of authority, dominance, and suppression of true and valuable internal knowledge. Learning to navigate this world of the earthly based human ego is no small feat, they are everywhere in every aspect of our lives. One method of learning true navigation in this ego-based world society is to get to know your own ego.

Below I decided to share some of the incredible ego states I discovered in myself and that I have been learning to work through all my life. I love my ego. Much of it formed its opinions when I was unaware. And because I wasn’t paying attention at that time my ego states grew to ridiculous and many times problematic proportions. As I began to wake up and notice, it wasn’t you who was wreaking havoc with my life, it was my own ego I began to get to understand and know my ego.

Below are just some of the amazing ego take overs I have experienced that may trigger you to get to know your ego self. By loving and appreciating my ego and learning to forgive myself for my own lack of observation in this regard I am learning to re-balance myself with respect for and to my ego self. So here goes, here are some of my ego dilemmas.

I know I am in my ego when I see life as competition and allow myself to feel less than blessed in any situation or any moment.

I know I am in my ego when I am driven to fill myself up, out of a sense of emptiness. When I am eating out of emptiness, when I am compulsively seeking stimulation of any kind. I know I have left the grips of my ego when I return to wholeness, and I nurture my well being.

I know I am in the grips of my ego when I am looking outwards for my sense of right-ness, I have left my ego when I look inwards. My answers come from within me!

I know I am in my ego when I am stuck in any form of lack.

When I have bought into a reality of lack I lose my grounding. I know I have released the grip of my ego when I return to abundance. When I allow myself to rest within the greater truth that there is plenty, and plenty for all. Losing sight of abundance in any way signals me to get a grip. I choose not to perpetrate the ideas in the world which say there is not enough for everyone. That is simply a strange yet true form of ego takeover .

I know I am stuck in ego when I seek wisdom outside me, I know I have returned to my authentic self when I seek, wait, find, wisdom within myself. I cultivate and develop my ability to be wise. Wisdom discovered as a personal experience always replaces that which was from outside us.

I know I am in my ego state when I am in fear of endings, and my own mortality.

When I let go of this fear I go to my own internal space of the eternal. The eternal within me nourishes me and realign my attention towards truthfulness. I eliminate my outer emotional investments in false teachings, doctrines, and agreements that profess anything other than the actual truth, that our nature is eternal.

I know I am stuck in my ego when I am stuck on me.

When I am possessed by my own thoughts, feelings, situation, and positions to the exclusion of others. I know I have passed out of this when I get to we. Replacing me with we always shifts any difficult personal situation and reveals information that was withheld to our awareness because of the selfish nature we were investing ourselves!

I know I am stuck in ego when I cause pain to myself and others as a solution to me.

When I release myself from the grips of my own ego I cause healing. I always shift the equations from me to we and then I realize my own participation and power to truly heal. Healing takes many forms and simply implies wholeness. Anytime I can grab hold of another piece of my puzzle that contributes to being whole I am better off.

I know I am in my ego when I am driven to have outward recognition.

I have left that place when I seek my own inner authority. Inner authenticity is the expression that replaces any forms of compulsive outward recognition.

I know I am a victim of my circumstances and I feel how my ego causes me to be separate, less than, and diminished.

I leave this place when I return to my inner realization that I create my own reality. I shift my perceptions and return to my own resources within. My circumstances are my growing places and I do not intend to stay a victim in these places…. I can always learn something that will add to my spiritual awareness and thus support me in transforming, and transcending a situation.

I know I am in my ego when I fear the temporary nature of life.

When I let go of my ego I find I feel how awesome life can be, that it is constantly changing and that situations are temporary. When I am out of the grips of my ego I recognize a bigger picture unfolding and the greater realization that is unfolding for me to learn all about. I am grateful for the unlimited expression of the temporal nature of life.

I know I am stuck in my ego when I only see and feel how complicated things are.

I feel overwhelmed and victimized. When I let go of the grip of my ego mind I recognize the parts, I see how things fit together, I open myself to learning more. I learn to dismantle my overwhelms and I recognize patterns emerging for me to learn about. Simplicity replaces complication. Simplicity becomes my new theme.

I know that I am in an egotistical place when I I think I am more spiritual, or you are more spiritual than me.

When I think that what I am doing is more spiritual, and I notice the unconscious levels of superiority within me I am surely in an ego take over.. I know when I am getting into self-righteousness and superiority I am deep in my ego separations. I know I have released the pain this causes and the friction it generates when I return to the place of authentic spirituality and I recognize how spirit in all of us is unlimited in expression. I know that everything, and all actions are sourced from a spiritual domain. We are all on equal grounding as humans and our capacity to express our own spiritual directions has many colors, shapes and sizes. I see myself in you and my heart opens with loving attention and willingness to share. Unity replaces separation, and oneness replaces superiority.

I know I am in the grips of my ego when I am hard-hearted.

I let go of my strictness, my fixed-ness and I find compassion. When I return to compassion I allow myself to melt my own ego hardness. At any time I alow myself permission to change, and then to share this with those whom I have held my hard-heartedness.

I know I am in my ego when I get impatient and cause more negativity.

I let go my impatience and find remarkable new levels of patience inwardly. I move with patience and this informs me in totally new ways that assist the unfolding of whatever is going on. Slowing down enable me to be more capable of the details. Details I was missing when I was impatient.

I know I am in my ego grips when I am indifferent, and lackadaisical.

When I lose sight of and interest in the unfolding of circumstances around me and in the world. I let go of my egotistical grips and find myself happy and open-minded to pay attention and remain open. I seek to learn and understand where I refused to care. Caring replaces complacency.

I know I am in my ego when I allow my own mind to generate unrealistic fear about anything. Allowing myself to engage in fear based group mind thinking that is fear mongering, fear making, and fear based limits my authentic self-expression and connections to others, to differences and to opposing points of view. I know I have released my ego based hypnotized self when I begin to experience inner courage, strength, and genuine power. I see how fear is a stepping stone toward greater self-expression, and the possibility for developing group awareness. I see the problems, conflicts and have empathy arise within me to replace the frozen, limiting, hard perceptions that fear cause in my own human conditions.

Hostility is a sure sign I am in my ego self, and when I release this I learn to process the layers of my own feelings and thoughts in a way that reveal my true friendliness and willingness to cooperate. I learn to pay attention to issues that arise and I take care of what needs to be addressed. I refuse to allow myself to participate in social movements that perpetrate these hostilities.

I know that my ego has overtaken me when I am stuck in past and future life scenarios.

Unable to be present the endless playing of story lines, old conversations, and hurtful past experiences dominate my inner world. I can’t reach the future, yet it is the only place I want to escape. As I relinquish this ego trap I return to the “NOW” moment. I become capable of managing whatever arises because I am present for it.

Complaining all the time, is how I feel when I am stuck in ego states.

Instead of complaining I return to gratitude. When I shift into gratitude I release the endless negativity of relentless complaining and I feel a sense of acceptance with life that shows me how to transcend, and use my circumstances to grow.

War…. warring with others as a way of life or pattern of constantly battling is a sure sign I am in the grips of some egotistical state of my own creation.

Including national and international group notions of continual war. I know I am leaving the painful grips of my ego when I accept the possibility that peace is possible and I choose peace as a way to solve conflict. No matter how long it takes, or how it looks. Peace is the choice that replaces war, and restores the core spirituality, or soulful aspect into my life.

I peacefully engage my awareness to the problems of war and my own inner battles.

I shift my energy from outward to inward and I refresh my own attention to my inner battles.

I resolve my inner wars and restore my inner peace as a solution to the outer wars on this planet.

Peace is possible.

Intolerance is the uncomfortable act of ego grip that strangles the soul in the human form.

Whenever I recognize my own intolerance I shift into tolerance. I see my own limited self, my own limiting perceptions and I pull away from any and all forms of externally based intolerance. I stop the flow of this group mind behavior in myself. As I cultivate tolerance within me I contribute in the world in much more meaningful ways and I find connections with others for which there had been none. I learn to bring tolerance to my own difficulties and I love what process I am going through.

Self importance at the expense of others is a horrible ego state that isolates and generates many negative human relationship problems.

Whenever I let go of my own self importance in this way I shift my energy and attention to We importance. Lessening the weight of the self brings equality, equanimity and lightness of being. We not me has become a new mantra!

Self denial is the uncomfortable act of not getting my authentic needs met.

I know I am in the grips of some kind of ego takeover when I am in self denials. The uncomfortable outcomes that arise from self-denial cause all manner of toxic life interactions. Human relationships, relationship to the divine in life are all inhibited and thwarted by my self-denial. Unhappiness, suffering and pain are the usual outcomes. When I let go of the egotistical notion of self-denial I open myself to the genuine possibility and the actualization of my own authentic sovereignty. I become more of an honest expression of my soul in human form, and I tend to life with others in a realistic and meaningful way.

Blaming and shaming others for how I am, how I feel, and my circumstances in life.

This is the uncomfortable short sided perception coming from my own ego based thinking. This generates endless cycles of victimization and diminished self-love. When I find myself insisting on blaming and shaming others I know I am in some kind of ego takeover.

When I get others to side with me I only increase my own ego gratifications and perpetrate ego states in others.

When I release this toxic behavior I shift into accountability.

When I choose my own accountability in any blame and shame situation the entire dynamic transforms for me, regardless of the actions of others. There is no greater inner power in a situation where there is blame and shame being tossed about.

Accountability protects and restores internal integrity where it was given away through the unconscious action of egotistical blame and shame. I refuse to participate in the group agreements where this is being hurled across the planet. I replace all forms of blame and shame with my own internal personal accountability.

Power over others, however covert and sublime, and tricky this may be this is a sure sign I have engaged my own egotistical self-centered selfish self.

While this may be a temporary feel good solution to a problem it never lasts. It cannot be sustained except through perpetrating over and over again ones position and can be made more significant by engaging others to support this negative egotistical position. Power over others multiplied by social agreements creates more of the unsolved problems that dis-empower others and generates cycles of abuse, victimization, and unending cycles of repeating human relationship issues. By participating in group agreements in this way I cause my own problems in the world and never get to the core issues or solutions. When I can get myself out of the grips of this ego takeover state I find humility. Humility restores equanimity and fairness. Humility keeps me in my own place and prevents me from overstepping boundaries of others, demonizing those with differences. And opens me to new levels of perception that lead to brand new solutions. Without humility these solutions to life relationships and situations remain obscured. We cannot and will not and do not see the possibilities that are potent in our life situations when we are in our ego takeovers filled with power over others. Read those last tow sentences again they are treasures.

I know I am in my ego when I find myself over micromanaging, dis-empowering others, and over demanding control over others.

When organization stumbles and falls apart. Over managing situations is frustrating and generates more and more negative outcomes. When I let go of my egotistical ideas for control I find the value I missed in others. The value of our interrelation increases and I stabilize my own resources for accomplishing the tasks at hand. I affirm the power and capability of others and their our freedom to choose.

Global Ego Take-overs

Currently on our planet there are a multitude of themes in banking, economics, business, religion, politics, military, science, education, socialization of whole groups, to name a few… all running some person’s ego takeover of the world. It is truly astonishing to recognize. This is being brought out into our awareness with painful insight, dangerous revelations, and waves of data drops. The times are such that we are able now to see our own global take-overs. Without a certain level of integrity to address these issues one can surely turn into a victim. Victimization on a mass level is being revealed and it is horrific. On the other hand it is enlightening. It is enlightening in that we can now address the real sources of our human problems. We can address them most powerfully and with utmost potency by way of our own choices to address and tend to our own ego based emotional investments, our own ego based ideas, and our own ego driven actions. Without our own individual ego re-educations we are doomed to more and more victimization. All of which stops whenever we clean up, tend to, take care of our own crazy ego’s!

It is not possible for another ego to take you over when you stop giving over your personal power to these situations. I am stopping giving away my resources, personal emotions, thoughts and ideas to egotistical people, groups, or movements.

By taking into accountability my own ego, the damaging effects stop.

How to realize personal power requires the honest self reflection, processing, and decision-making to either continue to invest emotions and thoughts and actions into ego based scenarios or not to invest.

This is a personal decision-making process that millions of people are making at this time in our world. We are collectively waking up and learning to choose differently.

Our collective human species is not in agreement in the deepest core place with all these ego take-overs. Our collective human species is… one person at a time… choosing differently. And the Hundredth monkey effect is happening as more and more people are suddenly deciding not to participate in small ego based, self-centered, ridiculous life situations.

The larger more capable aspect of our species which lies beyond mere egocentric life decisions is growing. What this looks like is the return to earth, or to physicality of spirit. The spiritual being having a human experience. This is core spirituality!

Turning Points, What are they? And Why?, Core Spirituality, my personal journey

Turning Points, What are they? And Why?, Core Spirituality, my personal journey

Turning points are the accumulations of experiences we have which gain momentum and propel us into new information. Our thoughts and feelings drive us toward action. These thoughts and feelings have substance, and as such they have momentum. The growing momentum in our thoughts and feelings develop fullness. This fullness carries power. The power of our momentum drives us forward or backward as each experience unfolds. When we develop a sense of complete fullness we pass through turning points.

This occurs whether this is totally private and inward and moves us seemingly without outer consequence, yet it is the very weight of our internal choices, dwellings upon, that will cause events in our externalized life to become triggered. Externally we can easily see how actions we take bring forth outcomes that cause us to turn.

Turning points as crisis

crisis is the turning point in our lives. As the nature of crisis being upsetting to the existing conditions and the facing off of opposing or highly charged differing points of view. I have learned to embrace crisis for the real significance it carries…. we have arrived at a turning point. Whenever we allow ourselves to be frozen, overwhelmed, over taken, and upset by the drama within the crisis we undergo a kind of metamorphosis. Things begin to change shape. To become stuck in this aspect of the dynamic of a turning point can prolong suffering, and hold off the changes about to occur. I watch as people stay stuck in dramas of all kinds without moving on and thus with hold the power of meeting up to their turning points in life and the upcoming new possibilities yet to show themselves. This is particularly true in our relationships. Work dynamics, and states of personal evolution. Thus to take on the notion that crisis is actually a turning point for our own development is a wise choice to make. And then to open to learn what this all means as it unfolds.

Humanity is within such a time as a species and as individuals. Huge groupings of people are sharing in the experiences of great turning points in life, without realizing this all that is left is the drama, and drama alone is not enough to stabilize the conditions that arise in these crisis’. Darker forces of unloving unconscious people hook in and can take advantage of these very vulnerable zones. When we see how unconsciousness plays a part in suffering in this way we can take back our selves by learning to let the drama of crisis move us forward and see where it leads. Refusing to be taken advantage of at this time is crucial. Yet it continues on the world stage. We need to wake up! Stop investing into the dramas and utilize the momentum of these turning points to develop ourselves, develop awareness, and to put an end to victimization. The experience of crisis is enough on its own for anyone. We can and are healing much of what it means to be human through taking care of our crisis points, our turning points!

Turning points as realizations

the dynamic turn of events in turning points redirect our attention so that we open up to new realizations. These realizations have meaning for each of us. Whether we are an observer or we are dead smack in the middle of a great turning point. Realizations charge our attention with new thoughts and feelings that need to be processed so that important decisions will be made. These decisions that we make are what will catalyze the outer world into the transformation awaiting each of us. Paying attention to our realizations can have tremendous power for each of us as we live out each day. Truthful sharing and recognition of what it is we are realizing is how we as a group, as a species, move all of us along. We are many yet one in this case and what any one of us decides at these turning points affects the group in some way.

Confusions and chaos may signal a new turning point

I like to re frame my notion of confusion and chaos as new information arriving. Not just confusion as we typically have been programmed to hold it. Confusion and chaos is a signal that differing forces are arriving to our awareness that need attention. When confusions hold a lot of charge to them this can be the signal that we have arrived at some kind of turning point. A larger perspective, a bigger turn of events may be about to arrive. Thus holding confusion with diligent awareness to details, and possibility for learning is potent. Often we will discover something new that has escaped our attention, and needs to be addressed. I use my own confusion to untangle, unravel, or decode some elements of thinking, or perception that are not quite in line with a larger picture or truth that is up for me to realize. In this way there is only minimal victimization and maximum awareness.

The wisdom of observing self

The closer we become to developing independent self observations the more capable we are of understanding our turning points. One important component of self observation is learning how to see our mind. See our thoughts, feel our feelings and to step back, disengage from the intensity of merging our entire being into our minds. The intellectual mind is limited. Getting out of your mind can be the healthiest thing to do in many situations. The thinking mind wants to think it is in total control of everything, when reality is… it is not. Self observation acts as a buffer to this overwhelming experience of being over taken by ones thoughts. And provides levity to the overall awareness within us. Self observation can be cultivated passively through various practices of meditation, prayer, and actively while we are going through our day. In this way we can learn to use the mind as a translator for deeper thoughts inside us, deeper realizations that have yet to fit into our outer awareness or thinking. Yet ripe to be developed.

The knowledge that is real inside you

Knowledge that is inside each of us is real. This is a big realization as we shift from the habits of leaning on others to know things. Converting our externally based leaning into internal ones shows us how we are actually receiving knowledge from within. That there have been forces active on this planet for generations now seeking to sway us from this is quite a wake up call. Familial, religious, social, educational, political forces…. to name a few have actively been engaging people to seek knowledge in memorization, rote learning, submission to rules and regulations, doctrines, and dogmas in an attempt to gain power over people. Yet what truly matters and ultimately makes the difference is the realization that knowledge is within.

The power of living off your own energy

The shift in energy we get when we live off of our own interior is dramatic. There is an unlimited source of spiritual power that will charge an individual with energy whenever we make the shift off of depending on, leaning into others for our knowledge. It can be quite draining to follow rules that don’t really feel authentic. It can feel powerless to believe all the knowledge is outside of you, and not within. Thus to begin the process of learning how to live off of your own interior, authentic power will activate new sources of energy that will be very surprising to many. This is a marvelous realization I have come to understand, and often I thought in my mind things are impossible and really they are NOT!

Accessing the power of turning points

The momentum we personally achieve by way of shifting our awareness inward and learning to access our own interior sources of energy and power can fuel turning points. Joining these two forces, inner energy with outer turning points provides the larger more necessary fuel needed to make a break-through. Turning points draw lots of energy as the swirling of all the different forces contained in the conditions require huge strength to pass beyond. When we learn how to access turning points as positive energetic shifts we propel ourselves into much more capability. Capability in ways we are Developing for ourselves and adding to our spiritual knowledge.

maintaining equilibrium through chang

My favorite imagery for maintaining equilibrium through change is a tornado. At an earlier time in my life the course of events that were either in crisis, or in big time swirling around me was so huge my little self did everything just to hold on. Turning points can have huge impact on the personal levels of ourselves and really challenge us, challenge our sanity, and just about every aspect of being human. Thus as I was in a time such as this I found the image of a tornado came to me repeatedly. And I learned to see myself in that tornado. I leaned to see myself moving within it, in the still quiet of the center as it moved all around. I adopted the idea of being still on a moving point. This allowed me to continue in the process of changes occurring while maintaining an internal sense of balance. In time this became a very comfortable place for me.

Allowing what is arising as a choice for personal growth

By allowing I am implying that whatever arises I choose growth as the purpose for it all. Allowing is the act of submitting to the deepest part of myself. The deepest part of myself that holds the knowledge of my true spiritual direction and the unfolding wisdom in the events around me. To allow the deepest part of self to be the secure place to place my attention. In this way I have learned that no matter what… no matter what circumstances I must face, the ultimate outcome is a return to self, a return to greater realization and the deepening of my own authentic spiritual nature. And I have had to face tremendous negative elements in my lifetime… from dark demonic to ultimate betrayal to name a few of those circumstances. Allowing the deep in self to an energetic, interior source of resting, security, and ultimately power. This shifts dynamics all around and literally there has not been one issue with which I have not been able to face and come to a spiritual place with it. The interior choice to hold circumstances as opportunities for personal growth has catapulted the meaning and significance of everyday life into such amazing purpose.

Spiritual development and growth are the why

Spiritual growth is the “why?” we go through what we do. Plain and simple. Whenever I need an answer to a why question regarding my life and I have not received a specific response, I always get the answer is ….for my spiritual growth. This one shift in attitude has completely opened up my awareness into every aspect of human life. Without spiritual growth as the underlying purpose life conditions appear meaningless and in congruent. With it the possibilities are infinite.

Core spirituality within our turning points

Bringing core spirituality to my turning points in life has shown me how I fit into the larger picture unfolding. It has brought significant intuitive understanding, opened me when I was contracting and shutting down, connected seemingly separate situations and shown me how there is a larger picture to my life.

Life without meaning

The obvious alternative is life without meaning. And I have found myself in that place many times. Whenever I have made the choice to stay unconscious. Whether that choice was one I realized I was making or whether I had made it when I was unaware. Life without meaning is boring, frustrating, unhappy, broken and chopped up, and without joy. I have learned that whenever I experience these kinds of things I have looked away from being aware. It is a negative form of learning something very positive. In time I am learning to choose awareness, and this invites meaning.

The significance of learning to recognize the bigger pictures

While staying in an awareness of ego positioning, opposing points of view, conflicts, misunderstandings, prejudices, fixed bias’s keep a person in a little picture, a tiny box of awareness. Where pain and suffering grow. Where manipulations and power struggles are endless. The alternative is to learn to embrace, learn the significance of recognizing the bigger picture in any one situation.

Why we exist without remembering

We exist without remembering all these things as a self made set up… that is looking at it from a spiritual perspective. We temporarily undergo a kind of spiritual amnesia when we are born. We do this because we want to infuse our life circumstances with the absolute greatest possibilities for awakening. Our unconsciousness is only a starting point in any one situation. In reality this unconscious starting point is leading us to all our conscious turning points. Turning points where we do remember what we have forgotten as spiritual beings having a human experience. We remember our innate capabilities through the exploration of human conditions that ignite further knowledge and awareness. There really is such purpose in all things.

Leaving your turning points behind

Once we have encountered our turning points, been swirled around, turned upside down, inside out, and challenged beyond anything we emerge! We learn to leave behind so much human garbage, so much unnecessary drama, so much ridiculous thinking. We leave behind unproductive relationships, we release ourselves from toxic people, toxic life conditions. And we become free to re-create, re-direct, re-explore our lives with an authentic inner awareness of how much more meaningful it has all really been. And we cycle through these zones again and again coming up to new ones through out our entire life journey. This is the journey of soul into human form. This is the core spirituality experience of my life, and yours.

Spiritual Growth…. Everywhere Awareness Is Growing…, core spirituality, my personal journey

Germany, Cologne, Young man holding seedling

Spiritual Growth…. Everywhere Awareness Is Growing…, core spirituality, my personal journey

Awareness, intelligence, consciousness… however you choose to word it, is growing collectively. Our entire world is ever-changing in spectrum’s of equilibrium as we pass through the daily activity of our lives, learning new things. Everyone of us holds our growth in our own hands!

How little or how much we really see that the field of human consciousness is growing constantly all around us depends on the awareness we have inside us to know and to be open. Like water for fish, our field of collective thought is what we live within. And even though it is all around us it actually comes from within us! Not only our human consciousness but also all the different life forms around us add their vibrational, essential experience into the larger whole of which we call our planetary body. All life is in a state of some form of evolutionary growth and development forwards or backwards, however large or small that may be to each species or expression of creation.

If ever one has had a garden to tend, it is no more evident than how everything is growing, growing at different rates, sometimes dormant, yet still alive and still in growth. Changes are a constant. To begin to see how the collective or group consciousness is changing we have only to look into nature and human activity together instead of apart and see how the shifting fluctuations, ever-changing conditions we share are in a state of growth around us. Our human activity reflects our growth as we watch the developments arise each day in our species. The endings and the beginnings are plentiful. On an external basis through the internet and television we can see the monitoring of how human consciousness shifts from day-to-day. Issues arise, new discoveries, new policies, new formulations of groupings, endings, death, decay and transitions are everywhere with much activity surging forward day-to-day on planet earth. Buildings rise and fall, streets are built, life is abuzz. These are all examples of our awareness growing.

How each individual adds to the collective

Every aspect of creation adds its perspective to the universal flow of consciousness and we can learn to observe this inwardly. As the interior sight opens up we can see the astounding flow of consciousness that arises from every living thing. Animate and inanimate both contribute to the universal flow of life here. Seen from a vibratory perspective seemingly separate things are really all interconnected and passing this consciousness along through the myriads of pathways in creation. This place is alive with intelligence that is learning. Nature is learning! People are learning! Animals are learning! And so are the rocks learning and together all these expressions combine to make what we see as our world. Consciousness weaves and flows into and out of itself everywhere. Consciousness is learning through us as us!  The interaction of everything is what makes up the totality of this world. Both seen and unseen. Every single individual is contributing their life essence into the totality here. Shifting outcomes, rearranging them, converting them, and transforming them in some way. The miracle of life is within each individual form of creation, and together in the whole picture of creation.

Discerning the frameworks coming forward for new thought

New paradigms on the planet are emerging!

As awareness grows we develop new words that restructure our languages, new thoughts, new ideas, and whole new paradigms with which to express what we are learning from our growth experiences. Pockets of new information pop up in different places with different people. All over the world we are redefining our world, making corrections, and shifting the outcomes by virtue of our growing experiences. Notice new paradigms are showing up in cultures everywhere!

Resistance to growing and change

While new ideas and new paradigms emerge in some of us, others resist this new awareness and develop their ideas based on their resistance. Resistance has its own learning and serves the collective in its own way, thus nothing is lost or unneeded, everything counts! The collective field of ideas is filled with both positive and negative outcomes. Sometimes resistance and repetition are all dressed up with new clothes providing new perspectives that engage us in new ways to see old things. Other times whole new approaches evolve. Frameworks of new thought are born as new paradigms.

Paradigms emerge as the collective thoughts gain in numbers and momentum along with our agreements. The passions with which we energize these paradigms move them forward and into the world society.

The flow of awareness passing through our humanity on any one day is astounding to view on an energetic level. On this level there is also weight, substance, shape, form, and texture in thoughts arising out of our species. Everyone at some time in their lives has walked into a space and immediately felt something for which their eyes do not register. This is the field of thoughts collecting in the space, and our emotions combined, giving shape on an energetic level, its is common for some people to call it a “vibe”. (vibration ) These collections of thoughts produce climates of feeling, vibrational in nature that we sense. As we learn to process them we find words to name what we are learning.

Structures are growing

So not only are our ideas growing but the structures with which we organize thought, our paradigms are also growing and transforming. We see this in all areas of life from science, to human behavior, culture, business, education, there are unlimited new structures forming in our humanity now. We are discovering how we define life in millions of new ways around us. And as we do life takes on new and different meaning, consequence, direction and outcome.

Developing the awareness that everything is in a state of growth

When we “get” how valuable the awareness that everything is growing becomes an aspect of our perception, how we respond to those things that occur begin to take on new meaning. As we realize how reality is truly moving and not so set into stone we can learn to overcome our own inner struggles, with a place of fluidity and openness that embraces the changes we truly are moving into, and feel we need to make. We can simply join in… join the flow of growth in any way we choose by remaining open. learning how to observe growth patterns, shifting directions. This is the natural over-riding state of the cosmos!

The perspective that I have come to be infused with now … how everything is in a state  of perpetual growth. Thus my own leanings into complete definitions, and final outcomes is halted. Suspending my idea of finally knowing i realize the infinite nature of perpetual growth in everything, everywhere… I have learned to accept how the nature of existence is such that things are always changing because life is growing, and what I may have thought one day as “the final answer” regarding something no longer applies. I stay open and even vigilant toward holding any one idea too fixedly. As i develop the awareness of how consciousness is always growing there is a deepening into the meaning of life, of life events, of relationships, and so on. i pay attention to how my mind wants to grasp at final answers, fixed notions, and limited perception habits.

Formats lead to more formats

As we discover new formats and structures of relating in the world, these lead to more new formats. There is a natural path awareness takes in each of us that illumines our mind to the information necessary to go on. Thus when we can learn to remain open within ourselves we can access new information, or we will just stumble upon new information that fits our current piece of the puzzle. All knowledge is connected and thus encourages itself in us to continually learn and grow. These growth periods can take a long time, be very fast, and then sometimes very slow. Whatever the case, the learning is the point to consider. Once we stumble upon a new format that fits for us, then we are on our way as the most natural action is more of the same momentum into growth.

Releasing thoughts, paradigms, and handling what is uncomfortable

Along the way of encountering new information I have found myself having to release old thoughts, let go of paradigms of reality (whole umbrellas of thinking and belief that over ride knowledge ) and I have learned to handle the uncomfortable feelings and thoughts that go along with this process. I remind myself how meaningful it is to allow my uncomfortable thoughts and feelings in exchange for new ones, and to continue to learn.

The process of releasing thoughts we hold about someone, or the paradigms we have emotionally invested ourselves when we find are no longer feeling as truthful drop away more easily as we go through process and learn to ignite the wonder of discovery and the power of letting go.

Releasing and letting go are absolutely necessary to move forward in many situations.

I have found myself doing all the parts I needed to learn something except the letting go. Whenever this happens I realize that I am still anchored in old beliefs and not as free as I imagine myself to be, and of course this is because of not letting go completely. Letting go in a n appropriate manner that completes a learning curve about something generates a new interior space. Interior inside the mind, inside the heart, inside our bodies.

We have to let go in order to progress, and make room for the new life energies coming in to us via our growth experiences.

Psychic information, spiritual connection, and the openings available to us now

Clearing out the mental thoughts, releasing half-truths, letting go of outgrown personal patterns of any kind open our interior selves so that new information has a place to reside within us without conflict or opposition inside the landscape of the self. This is a marvelous empty place inside that is potent with the energies of what could be, and holds “promise” for continued new awareness to develop.

This opens us to psychic information, and spiritual connection.

I find  myself alerted on a daily basis as new information becomes available. Taking the time to empty out  through the process of self-reflection, inner questioning, increased discernment, and self accountability and releasing my loaded subconscious mind, my physical body, and my suppressed and oppressed emotions. The daily spiritual connection that is possible is quite amazing, and truly full of wonder. Inspiring and informative ,our awareness when allowed to get free has tremendous more energy and creativity for living.Awareness in us as us is intentionally urging us to experience growth! Thus it is possible to learn about the psychic conditions we all have possible within us to know things.Psychic information is not limited in the way we have been programmed to only use our 6 senses. It is as aspect of our nature that is connected naturally to the soul, our cosmic environment, and experiencing this educates us without limits.

Psychic information may not at first make sense to our thinking logical minds, however this information has a feeling of “fitting” with other info we hold and how psychic information fits with the larger pictures of our lives is instrumental in developing progress. As becoming fully into our potentials we learn how to pay attention and then to specifically access for ourselves all the information we need. And we can use this information to assist, uplift, and heal with others. Immense paradigms of understandings reveal themselves to us when we integrate our interior senses via the psychic information that is everywhere and inside us. Breaking through the programming of our socialization, hypnotized, habitual patterns opens this to each of us as everyone is more capable than we have been programmed to see ourselves.

Spectrum’s of new growth …balance and unbalanced

Everywhere awareness is growing, intelligence is growing yet how this happens is not the same for each person. In that there are spectrum’s of growth which occur according to each unique individual, situation, and the conditions we find ourselves. Thus on one side of the world people are not only learning about freedom they are also living more freely, and developing free structures for others. On the other side of the world people are learning the negative aspect of freedom, slavery or something like that. Enslavement, imprisonment, limitation and restriction are also aspects of freedom, only in its opposite expression. Thus we have wide spectrum’s between the two polarities.

As more and more people engage and invest their personal thoughts and beliefs into one aspect of the spectrum that one aspect manifests as reality and will do so until enough others begin the changes. I have found tremendous meaning in learning to respect the various spectrum’s of human expression as they relate to personal and planetary growth. As everyone and everything is in some state of growth. We are all growing. When we open up to this we can see evidence of this all over the world.

God in us is awareness, is consciousness, and as such is growing itself everywhere in the cosmos. As a living vibrant expression seeking its way through every life, every form there is a guarantee that God holds all, leaves nothing behind.

Living in the consciousness of growth aligns our attention in ways that energize us, provide us with energy, fulfill our deepest longings, and teaches us the wisdom of what it means to be alive.

As awareness we are capable of understanding the deepest sorrows, the most hurtful pains, and the most limiting of ideas. This is all because the consciousness that exists in us as us is one magnificent life force connected to everything and everyone. Consciousness is the ultimate “internet” .

Today I am learning to pay attention to growth, and when I don’t see my own , I see it around me and even still I am touched, moved and inspired. We can always tap into and find something that is growing… such is the real nature of life.
