Dear
ones, rapid change is taking place for many by choice as well as by
need. The path of evolution can difficult up to the point at which a
spiritual transition takes place and truth becomes one’s state of
consciousness and begins to manifest at that level. Much of what is
being projected into world consciousness through the media, churches,
government, etc., simply no longer resonates with many of you. Long
standing life styles and traditions often involving friends and/or
family are beginning to feel old and finished.
Some
beliefs are easily left behind and no one even notices, but frequently
attempts toward personal change serve to activate a period of intense
questioning, judgement, and criticism from family and friends. This may
cause the awakening student to doubt or even return to what is familiar,
but because he has evolved and is no longer resonating with the past,
he will not stay in what is finished.
Confusion
and doubt often occurs as an individual begins to receive and
contemplate ideas of truth completely foreign to his present belief
system. As a once solid spiritual foundation begins to dissolve it
becomes extremely stressful for those holding structured religious
beliefs.
Be
not afraid dear ones, for there are no accidents at this point. Know
that you are always being guided, and are never alone. The Higher Self
always brings forth what is needed when you are ready. Learn to trust
the process, knowing that at this point you are right where you need
to be, doing what you need to do, and doing a fine job of it.
Discouragement
with its sense of failure are the manifestations of a consciousness
filled with ” I should. I need to. There is only one right way.”–all
facets of duality and separation. It is time to cease the ever running
inner dialog of self criticism and judgement, allowing these beliefs to
dissolve into the nothingness they are. There are no “shoulds” in
higher dimensional energies, only love for every individual and their
choices.
As
spiritual students, you are at a point where you cannot evolve further
until acknowledging “self”. Spiritual students the world throughout
time and now have struggled to find and understand what God is. Many
gods and concepts are the result, many still being accepted as the only
truth. Most of you have come to know and accept that the Divine is
within, your own true nature and real SELF. However, at the same
time, many believe their humanity to be something separate in the belief
that “self” is simply ego and must be eliminated. The “self” is SELF,
but in the human state is conditioned by concepts and beliefs of
separateness. The “self” cannot be left out.
An
absence of self-love has been falsely considered to be humility, but it
is not. It is the manifestation of separation consciousness. Humility
is an awareness of who you are and where any gifts you may have, flow
from.
Many
look back on their lives, believing that past actions or even present
ones make them unworthy of love and find it impossible to love the
person they believe themselves to be. This is because they hold false
concepts of what love is. Loving self means acknowledging, accepting,
and loving not only the Divine within, but also that part of you that is
still learning–the part that has made many mistakes and often seems to
be a failure. It is a journey of bringing together the inner child and
the Divine Self.
There
can no longer be a dwelling on “sins” of the past for this simply
serves to cement energies of the past, all of which are illusory.
Remember, a person can only live out from their highest state of
attained consciousness. The things you may of done long ago, are not
what you would do today.
The
inner child is a term used for the accumulated energy of an immature
and unawakened state of consciousness carried with and added to,
lifetime after lifetime.
Inner
child work can be a powerful tool in learning to love “self”.
Although this work is often considered a psychological practice, it
actually goes much deeper. The inner child is that innocent and
trusting facet of you that has been rejected, disappointed, and hurt.
It is the unawakened you as a small child, your individuality in it’s
most innocent state. As the experiences of the third dimension began in
every lifetime, you only knew and thus accumulated the cellular
memories of a child’s defenses.
Most
humans still carry some if not all the energy of wounds experienced in
the child consciousness along with the immature ways with which they
attempted to address them. As an adult, these energies begin to
manifest as the immature thoughts and actions that pop up unexpectedly
when you least expect them, usually in times of stress. Most adults
usually ignore these feelings, not realizing that they are dismissing
their inner child as irrelevant and thus perpetuating the situation.
This energy can only be cleared by you. The child must be acknowledged,
accepted, loved, guided, protected, etc. and it is time.
Honor
what ever age your inner child may be at this time. You will know
through the types of inner dialogs you experience. Speak gently to this
part of yourself, telling it that from now on you are going to love
and protect it and most importantly acknowledge it. The inner child
is the you who for no good reason often feels hurt, angry, sad, or
depressed and as an immature child, afraid. Be patient, knowing as
with all children, the child is doing the best it knows at that moment
and needs your support.
Many
have intellectual spiritual knowledge (crown chakra), but until you
embrace the whole of you acknowledging and accepting the child (heart
chakra), there will be struggles. As you learn to accept, listen to,
support, and talk to this facet of your individuality without dismissing
it as nothing, it matures–first responding as a child, then an
adolescent, and finally as an adult. Finally you are able to, fully
integrate this healed aspect and “self” becomes SELF.
Evolution
on earth is a gradual progression toward remembering and accepting
the true identity of self and others through the experiences of many
lifetimes lived in an energy of duality and separation while gradually
evolving into a consciousness that learns from within instead of from
without. Know that regardless of appearances, in reality all is
perfect, always has been, and always will be.
You
have spent lifetimes trudging through a forest of dense and dark
energy, trying to do your best every step of the way. At a certain
point you began to see light filtering through the trees and moved
towards it, but after finally moving out and into the bright light, you
noticed that you had accumulated grass, sticks and all sorts of other
debris along the way. You are now in the process of discovering and
removing the accumulated debris, some of which is deeply embedded. This
in turn will allow you for the first time to see yourselves and others
clearly.
When
truth is new, there is often doubt and a desire to remain in what is
familiar. However, once out of the forest and into the light, any
glamour the old may still hold for you, soon disappears. This is
where most of you are now–a point at which you must cease looking with
“forest vision”. You have emerged from the forest and must leave
behind the ways of the forest. You now have light which will allow you
to discover an infinity of ever present beauty and perfection previously
unknown.
There
are no accidents at this point in your journey. All experiences are
opportunities to examine your belief system without judgement or
criticism. It is time move beyond any self loathing or other beliefs
that may suggest you are “less than”. You are ready to move beyond
intellectual spiritual studies and into the acceptance and living of
it. This means your spiritual journey must include honoring,
appreciating, understanding, accepting, and loving who you are–warts
and all.
LOVE
can never be governed by the standards of a society still enmeshed in
concepts of good and evil. LOVE is based in and flows out from SELF.
Your awareness of this truth expands and grows with every unfoldment
but “self” cannot be excluded in the process.
Try
to love the journey itself as well as all you meet along the way but
most important is the knowing of “self” to be SELF and that none are
more Divine than you in every moment.
