Crossing the Desert
March 31, 2008
The desert is where we feel deserted, desperate and alone.
The desert is where we learn to give up our attachment to material things.
In the desert we are dependent on our self for survival and on our Soul for Salvation.
In the desert we are confronted by our greatest fears that create our biggest life dramas.
In the desert there is no-one to meet our emotional needs but our self.
Once the Self learns to consciously meet its own emotional need for power, it becomes free to connect to its main Source of Power via its Soul.
Once the Self learns to challenge the beliefs of its ego self, it will gain the faith to follow the path of its Soul.
Crossing the desert is either a wasteland to survive, or an abundant land of plenty to experience, explore and discover.
Appreciating
March 30, 2008
Appreciating is Growing. Appreciation is the gratitude that we feel as we grow spiritually.
Appreciating is the state of being that we attain once we become accepting, allowing, approving, affirming, attesting, and acknowledging.
Appreciating is understanding who we are being, and as we understand who we are, we grow and appreciate.
Appreciating is when knowing and growing become the same state of being.
Depreciation is contraction (contrary action) and stagnation, which occurs in the absence of knowing, growing and being in gratitude.
As we depreciate, we lose our value and worth.
Appreciating who we are being is the measure of our value and self-worth. The more we appreciate who we are, the more self-worth that we experience and the greater our magnitude of personal power grows.
Our value appreciates as we learn to live our True Values.
Wit
March 29, 2008
To ‘wit’ is to know.
We attest through the reasoning power of our senses. These are our wits.
Our wits are our ability to reason intelligently.
We ‘bear witness’, when we attest our genuine truth.
The unawakened soul uses the five physical senses to bear witness to their life and affirm their reasonong power.
The awakened soul uses their wit or knowing to attest the authentic truth of their life path.
The awakened witness observes and the awakened observer witnesses.
“To wit” means the manifestation of one’s knowing, in that present moment.
When “God is our witness” then we are using our Divine Senses of Seeing, Knowing and Feeling.
A great Wit understands the irony of the Comedy of Duality and the paradox of life.
Greed & Pleasing
March 28, 2008
Please means “I bow to your superior power”.
Humbleness is bowing to another’s superior authority.
Pleasers are being humble to the arrogance of greed.
“Please can I”? is a plea for permission.
A plea for mercy is a plea for one’s life.
A ‘Pleaser’ has to ask permission from a superior authority and is not free to make their own choices.
Pleasing is deferring to the higher authority of another.
Children please their parents.
Pupils please their teachers.
Servants please their masters.
Dogs please their owners.
Religious fanatics please god.
When we please the authority of another we give away our power to them.
Greedy and arrogant people need to be better than others.
Greedy people need power over other people.
Arrogant people assume authority over other people.
We please others for fear of their displeasure with us.
Greedy people have low self worth and need to win and be better than others.
Arrogant people have low self-confidence and need to be right.
Greedy people and pleasers do not believe that we are all equal.
Arrogant and humble people do not practice being equable.
“Pleasing god does not please God”
“Being humble, to the dogma and doctrine of religion, is not being humble to God.”
“Being humble to God, makes god arrogant”.
“Following the direction of our Inner Coach is ‘Being Accepting’ and is neither humble nor pleasing because our Soul cannot be either greedy or arrogant, this is the prerogative of the ego self”.
Patience
March 25, 2008
Patience is waiting for an expected occurence, thinking that it is coming but not knowing when.
Impatience is experiencing that waiting for our expectations is becoming a toleration or becoming intolerable.
Impatience is an anxiety created by the fear that our expectations may not materialise.
When we are waiting for something, we require patience.
When we are awaiting the arrival of something, we know it is on its way and that we are on the way to manifesting it.
When we allow what we know is coming to arrive, we no longer need either patience or impatience.
“Patience makes patients of those who wait patiently”.
The Need for Approval
March 21, 2008
Our need for approval will attach us to the authority of another because they give us their power in exchange for our obedience to their authority.
When we follow the path of another, we will eventually disapprove of their authority as a reflection of their disapproval when we do not do as they expect.
Disapproval of others will manifest as intolerance of their actions and result in the imposition of a boundary on their behaviour, lest we become incapacitated by their disobedience to our desires.
What we desire or want is what we consider right for us and therefore what we approve of. We impose our right on another because of our need for approval, which manifests as our need to be right. When we are seen as wrong, we are at risk of disapproval, which creates the need for approval.
Children with a need for approval become parents with a need to be right, who demand obedience from their children and create in them a need for approval. So the circle of inheritance proceeds.
The transition of a teenager from needing approval to needing to be right is seen by the parents as a period of rebellion against their authority, approval and right thinking.
We will continually seek the approval of others that we are right until we learn to unconditionally allow what others have, accept what others do and approve of who others are being.
Only then will we approve of who we are being, allow what we desire to manifest and accept what ever occurs in our life as perfect.
Real & Genuine
March 20, 2008
What appears to be real in life is an illusion that we have created in time and space called our reality.
In our reality, time and space appear to be fixed, so we try to make our reality fixed also.
When we see the world through the genius of our imagination, we know that time is always advancing, space is constantly rotating and reality is always changing, as our perspective and beliefs act upon it.
What is genuine in Life is Divine and Absolute, which is undivided and Holy (Whole).
What is genuine in Life has no opposite and is beyond the physical realm of relative duality (dual reality).
Our genuine reality is Absolute Oneness.
The reality that we create as real for our self is whatever we choose to be real from the infinite possibilities that are available for us to create with our free will. (Free will requires creativity, genius and imagination).
Alternatively we can accept everyone else’s reality as our own, but in another’s reality, we shall never find our genuine self.
Rein & Reign
March 19, 2008
Government holds the reins of authority.
Monarchy holds the power to reign.
In today’s society, Monarchy has the power to reign but no authority, whereas Government has the authority to rein and rule, but no power.
To ‘rein in’ is to control and direct another, whereas to rule is to ‘rein in’ all others.
Free rein means that we are free to determine our own choice and be our own authority.
To ‘reign over’ is the power of the Monarch, which today has no authority to rule.
Without both power and authority the ability to be a supreme ruler is denied. Government needs the power of the Monarchy as much as the Monarchy needs the authority of Government.
An Autocracy has one supreme ruler.
A Democracy has a clear distinction between those who rein and those who reign.
Extrovert & Introvert
March 18, 2008
When we are disconnected from Source we are without Power. Without power we develop emotional needs.
When we seek our power externally and need others to meet our emotional needs, we open out emotionally to others and become extrovert.
When we seek our power from within our self, we depend on our ability to meet our own emotional needs and open inwardly emotionally and become introvert.
Extroverts actively seek energy from other people, whereas introverts passively seek energy from others.
The Source of our True Power is Love. When we are emotionally needy , we react without Love, in either an introvert or an extrovert way.
Whether we are extrovert or introvert is determined by the nature of our emotional needs.
Being extrovert or introvert is the defence mechanism on which our control drama is based. The more introvert or extrovert we learn to be, the more energy we can manipulate and the longer we can survive being disconnected from Source.
Extroverts control energy actively as an Intimidator and passively as an Interrogator.
Introverts control energy actively as a Poor Me and passively as an Aloof.
Control dramas persist until we become Overt and connect exclusively to Source for our emotional power.
Caring & Kindness
March 17, 2008
Kindness is being like someone else. We are their kind of people and they are our kind of people, because we are alike.
Kin like each other, share what they have and like the same things, because they are the same kind of people.
We care about people that we like. People that we do not like, we do not care for.
The duty of care is an obligation to look after our own kin and our own kind. It is born out of the belief that when we look after our own kind, our own kind will look after us.
Kindness is often confused with generosity. Our kind is very giving to our kind, because we give generously to those who care for us and care about us.
We believe that the more that we give, the more that we get back, when we give generously to our kind of people.
We believe a generous kind of person to be kind and generous.
We care for people who meet our emotional needs because they are kind and our kind of people.
The kind of people who meet our emotional needs are deemed to be caring and are considered to be friendly and our friend.
Uncaring people are unfriendly and not like us. They are unkind, untrustworthy and we do not care about them because we do not need them emotionally.
The Need to Be Right
March 16, 2008
The need to be right is created by our fear that we can be wrong.
Fear is an acronym for ‘false evidence appearing real’. The appearance of what is false or wrong will create the need to be right.
In this relative world of dual reality, right and wrong exist as opposing perspectives of the same energy.
Being wrong is possible when we believe that there is only one true reality.
The illusion is that we all appear to share the same time and reality, yet we all individually operate at different wavelengths, frequencies and vibrations of energy.
We inhabit different realities based on our perspective of life. When we share a perspective of life, we share that reality with another. What makes it true or false, right or wrong is just our perspective of it.
When we adopt another’s perspective on life, we follow their authority, which is never right for us, and will create a need to be right because we are on the wrong track for us.
Our need to be right will surface as having an issue with Authority. Our rebellion against the authority of others is driven by our need to be right our self.
When we accept that life just is exactly how we have individually created it, we know that we all have choice and whatever we choose will create our own personal, unique and exclusive reality that exists within an illusion of one shared reality called life on Earth.
Once we can consciously see our own reality and accept that other people have their own reality, we can never be wrong and we will never again need to be right.
Relative & Absolute
March 15, 2008
In Absolute Reality, everything just flows.
In relative dual reality, life ebbs & flows.
Well-Being is flowing without resistance. As Divine Flow has no resistance it is experienced as Well-Being in this relative physical world.
We cannot live in the Absolute World down here in the relative world. We just make relative and absolute a duality.
We can live a Life of relative Well-Being, but not until we have experienced being un-well.
To experience unwellness, illness, disease and disorder, we just have to swim against the tide of Wellness. Most people manage this without difficulty.
To experience Wellness, we are required to swim against the tide of un-wellness by changing our direction of flow consciously.
We have to discern what we want - what makes us well, from what we don’t want – what makes us unwell.
The problem is that Life, like the tide, ebbs and flows because we are in a world of duality.
We therefore have to change our perspective depending on whether life is ebbing or flowing.
Well-Being is the absence of resistance. When we learn to never flow against the tide of life, we will always flow with Life, which is Being Well.
When we overcome the relative duality of ebb and flow, Life will absolutely Flow.
My Truth
March 14, 2008
Life just is whatever we create it to be.
I follow my path as guided by my Soul and accept whatever turns up.
Life is just effortless, when we follow the authority of our Inner Coach and allow others to follow the authority of their Souls.
We all have choice and we are most at choice when we allow others to make their own choices.
We all have our own choice, when we stop letting others make our choices for us, stop choosing the choices we make for others, and start to make our own choices consciously in awareness of who we really are.
There is enough of everything for everyone.
Even though we have different abilities with which to create, we all have an equal potential for life, once we acknowledge our equability.
We can create an abundance of what we want or an abundance of what we do not want. There is enough of everything in any quantity that we choose.
We can only have too much of something that we no longer want, and we can only have too little of something that we are limiting our self from having.
Love is the way, when we approve the guidance of our Inner Coach, accept the support that we receive from all others and allow our authentic nature to be expressed.
We cannot ever have too much Joy, Contentment, Fulfilment or Love.
