Science of Being is the science of your being and reveals the means and methods to manifest success in the physical world and contact the source of All Power.
It is a harmonious blending of Wisdom and science that support and explain each other.
And addresses the Big Questions like ‘Is there a God?’ and ‘How can I contact God?’ It is also practical in very realistic ways by helping you answer: ‘Why do I experience problems? How can I achieve happiness in my life now?’ ‘Who am I?’ and ‘What is my purpose?’
Consider that there is no such thing as constructive criticism, even of ourselves. Have you considered that when we are self criticizing we are judging and afraid that we are not good enough to fit in or be loved? And often we feel if we self criticize it is justified because others are going to criticize us so why not jump the gun?
We all do it; we all criticize, yet we are in a process of realizing that none of us are perfect and we all have our habits ….. we all have been programmed to adhere to established patterns of behaviors.
Yet, we can pause and consider the temptation to criticize, then listen to our Inner Voice, our Higher Self, to guide us. A sincere intent to improve ourselves benefits us, but to criticize another or ourselves in an attempt to show we are better is not. It’s destructive rather than constructive.
Criticism is directed by fear and can result in anxiety, guilt, and even self-hatred. Yet, the temptation is just a temporary distraction from Self Love and compassion for all of us. And we can realize this.
To realize that we all are tempted is the beginning of having compassion for ourselves. And ….. that compassion rises our level of consciousness to encompass Acceptance, Understanding and Love for ourselves, for others and all Beings. And certainly increases our happiness!

“Only Truth will set us Free. Lies are bonds woven from all kinds of evil elements.”
Eugene Fersen, Aphorisms of The Lightbearer, page 127.
Thinking is an addictive distraction, especially when we have an intent to quiet the mind, to mediate and come into your Real Self. We tend to think about things we try to avoid or repress when we get quiet and listen to ourselves. Things like that chocolate we’re missing, the sexual pleasures we’re missing, and the many, many solutions to worries we’re missing.
It’s normal for us all. That’s important to remember when the guilt and the hurt of it all begins to further distract us. Yet, we can free yourselves with practice.
Just keep being conscious and aware of the temptation to be distracted. Just observe, be the watcher of the thinker without judgment. And amazingly, in that awareness of the temptation to be distracted, you have entered a meditation of observation. Whereas, if you we unaware of being distracted then one thought leads to another. And you can circle there.
Let compassionate Love lead you deeper into Relaxation and Silence. Pause and take some deep breathes, being conscious of breathing in Universal Life Energy. Let compassion for yourself, lead to compassion for others and for all Beings. And in this practice you can release, release and rise in consciousness above temptation into Love, Peace and Joy.

“We should try to eliminate the undesirable traits of our subconsciousness by becoming conscious through living FourSquare. It is a stupendous task for the whole of Humanity.”
Eugene Fersen, Aphorisms of The Lightbearer, page 31.
We are attracted to the Light of Universal Consciousness from Higher Consciousness within us and from our Spiritual Heart. And we can Light up with conscious, Spiritual Love, then radiate It out.
To start simply, the first exercise in Science of Being is Relaxation and Silence to open ourselves to the inflow of Universal Life Energy, which is the Light of All Energy, Intelligence, Truth and Love. And thus we let Light in, and that Universal Life Energy flowing to us, in us, through us and then automatically returns back throughout the universe.
We come Lightbearers and construct our reality by consciously letting Light in and letting Light out……contacting Universal Life Energy and by letting it out…..by expressing FourSquare. That is by: Expressing Universal Life Energy in our reality as Enthusiasm, Wisdom, Sincerity, and Love in a balanced manner. With consideration.
In a high state of consciousness we come Home to our natural condition ….. our Spiritual Home, conscious of compassionate, unconditional, Joyous Love. We know we are deeply Loved and deeply Loving. We are one with All Power, Awareness, Sincerity and Universal Love. Human love has evolved to Spiritual Love and radiates from our Spiritual Heart.
What is essential on our journey Home? Awareness and Love. Light and Love.
Consider starting with a sincere intent to be aware of Self and self ….. aware of the Truth of Self and our Inner Compassion, Love and Joy which also opens us to be aware of self …. of the ego and its stress circuits.
When you do become aware of feeling down on yourself or someone else, consider just the opposite. The subconscious perverts our thinking.
And when we are willing to rise above the ego, a stressed out separate person, we begin to realize that we are part of something bigger and Harmonious. That Light within us is attracted to and part of the Light of All Harmony. And this is Home.

“Inspiration is absolutely essential in life. Without It, we could not exist on this Earth. Seek It wherever you can find It. The first step it It, is attention.”
Eugene Fersen, Aphorisms of The Lightbearer, page 189.
“We are, so to speak, standing on a line of demarcation, on one side of us the Past, on the other side the Future, and in front of the Present. In the Past we have experience, in the Future all possibilities, but NOW is the time for us to act, to plant the good seed, to start positive causes, taking advantage of lessons of the Past so as to create the Future we desire.”
Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 219.
The whole of humanity is in the process of awakening, traveling our individual spiritual journeys. And this year we have an additional boost of energy to help us. Yet, opportunities can be missed if one is not willing to be open to possibilities, mentally and emotionally.
Kindly take this opportunity to be conscious and aware, especially of your thinking, because that is where, on the mental level, we start our awakening process.
And then we must act, dare and do, live life optimistically, knowledgeable, sincerely and most of all Lovingly for your own progress and the whole of humanity.
The energies in this Gregorian calendar year 2024 will be very robust! This year’s energies are going to charge us up as we begin to transition into a new cycle for earth and humanity, distancing ourselves from the old ways.
It can feel uncomfortable, but there is potential for some of us to evolve into new earth awareness and expansive Hearts, valuing community and Unity. It’s up to You to resonate harmoniously with the energies!
Sacred numerology indicates general tendencies of humanity rather than predictions of what may manifest. Yet 8 is a number of Power and we will all feel the boosted influx with more focus on actions, more realistic expectations, rather than valuing idealistic beliefs and opinionated attitudes of last year’s #7 energies.
With 8 energies we can release past fixations and go in the flow of new awareness of Truth and in-coming Life Energy. We have the potential to awaken to our individual inspirations and purposes in life.
And we’re entering opportunities to manifest new higher purposes for the human community …… for the greater good of all rather than just “me,” the ego and old beliefs.
But there still may be those that cling to old “me” tribe thinking presenting obstacles for understanding, cooperation and Unity. Thus, be cautious of authorities with callous materialistic demands.
This may not be an easy year, with the potential for challenges and conflicts because 8 is also a rhythmic energy with twists and turns. And there’s tendencies for financial shakeups.
If we are tempted to view life during these upturned energies as being stressful then consider it an opportunity to transcend fear. Practice Relaxation and Silence which will help us recenter in our Hearts and Love.
The energies of 8 can be very advantageous for transformation by sincerely taking responsibility for ourselves. The 2 loops of 8 circle yet return to meet ….. representing Spirit and Matter are One. And you are That!
Eight reminds us to balance both our spiritual and material life …. attune to our Inner Spirit and manifest philanthropic actions in our life. That is to learn Self Love even though we experience personal challenges, and express compassion for others and all.
There is potential to Know that you are already enlightened! All of us can benefit and gain freedom from dark thoughts and troubling emotions by being sincere and living FourSquare; being enthusiastic, understanding, truthful and Loving. Each of us add to the unity of Love as we release guilt, resentment, self-righteousness, and fear.
Some of us will begin to feel the boosted influx of Universal Life Energy to help us connect to Infinite Love. The Mental Contact can help us harmonize our inner energies and focus on creative and magnetic projects. While the Star Exercise can help us open to receive benefits, like attune obstacles that we may not even be conscious of!!
There are also the energies of numbers 2, 0 and 4 included in this year’s frequencies:
In the polar mind that believes in opposites, 2 represents …. good and bad, light and dark and that one cannot exist without the other. Yet #2 can also instill an awakening to the advantages of cooperation. And through cooperation between the seemingly different camps there is potential to make beneficial impacts. Within 2 is 1, the Infinite, and things are not so different.

Zero brings the energies of hidden potential and power of Silence. And interestingly the zero is in-between two 2’s, or the human idea of polarity and two camps of thinking.
So again that points to the potential in practicing Relaxation and Silence to connect with your Inner Power and its Source, Universal Life Energy! And in meditation trust that Power to help You consciously unify with Infinity, the Absolute.
Da Vinci’s man with dissection
Fortunately, #4 is also included in 2024 which offers the means to rise above obstacles, like the belief in opposites having meaning. We remove inner obstacles, like guilt, fear and anger, by living the FourSquare. By Being enthusiastic, reasoning, truthful, Law abiding, and Loving in our material life. Thus, we manifest the same energies of Spirit. And all of humanity benefits.
As we synchronize with the FourSquare within, we synchronize with each other’s higher good and attract cooperation for the good of community and earth.
And even though we are one humanity, the energies of 8 leave everything up to the individual to take advantage of the coming energies or be carried way by mass attitudes of the energies as disastrous shakeups.
This year will move quickly, eventually ushering us into a new cycle in which we realize that we are all connected and benefit from unity and working for the good of all.
In the hope You find Love close at hand this year, all year and always, PortiaSLB
“The Law of Attraction, or Love, is therefore the governing and sustaining Power which holds the entire Universe together in one coherent whole. Whatever is, exists because of the Law of Love, manifesting through it.”
Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, 27 Lessons, page 622.
Each one of can become extraordinary, change our health, gene activation, and even DNA!
Change starts in the mind ….
It’s as simple as changing our habitual thoughts and emotions. Memories, along with thoughts and emotions accumulate and grow in the subconscious and body unnoticed. But these energies eventually return to our awareness.
If we unconsciously carry any trauma like abuse experienced during childhood into adulthood … we may wake up in the mornings feeling some anxiety, not knowing why. Or it may manifest in our bodies causing dis-ease.
For years I’ve experienced feelings of not belonging in this world, not knowing why until I began exploring my emotions and feelings. As children we are naive and weren’t consciously mature or educated to release negative emotions, like guilt, fear or anger.
With these emotions buried they may resurface, warped into feelings of anxiety, resentment, sadness, insecurity, and jealousy. As we repeat thoughts and feelings our brain becomes wired with pathways …. we’ve become conditioned and familiar with the habit.
We stick with the familiar even when it is not best for us. There may be some change …. because life is constant change …. but usually very familiar change.
A shift can happen when we release the past and move our thinking and emotions into the present moment.
Our emotions are key to change
The good news is that changing our mind is easier than we are led to believe. It may feel uncomfortable, but that is only because we will be moving out of the familiar.
It’s simple
First thing is to become aware of your state of mind in the moment. Become conscious of your thoughts and feelings. Especially your feelings. Why? Because feelings point to emotions, which are key!
Here comes the unfamiliar part ….. once you recognize a bothersome feeing like jealousy ….. just notice it …… without getting involved it it. Let it pass you by.
And consciously choose uplifting thoughts of optimism, generosity, understanding and compassion.
This may initially feel uncomfortable, yet with practice it begins to feel natural ….. because states of optimism, trust, serenity and lovingness is your innate nature. And these energies eventually manifest in the body’s cells and in your health.
There’s brilliant help!
You always have the help of the Eternal and can easily contact that harmonizing Source by making the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy. It is ubiquitous and functions that way, harmonizing body and mind.
I make the Mental Contact when I notice uncomfortable feelings to help me observe without getting involved, and then reach for higher levels of consciousness like Courage, Trust and Love.
During meditation you may further explore feelings to get to base emotions, or memories, so they might be released to The Great Principle. And you can focus on consciously choosing to be accepting and loving.

scientific research links
Here are 2 links from the Mayo Clinic and John Hopkins connecting stress, thinking and emotions and health:
“It is a very important thing that we should not keep love unmanifested, but should at every opportunity disclose it, show it forth, manifest it, be it in a word, in a smile, in a look or in a handshake.”
The raging storm of terror that is generated by terrorists with hatred and self-righteousness is also unconsciously fed by those that fear or hate them. An impersonal analysis of the situation can help us calm the turbulent tempest in our thinking, free us to be in the moment, and with the help of the Eternal begin to enact Inner Peace.
FreeDigitalPhotos.net, Stuart Miles
UNCONSCIOUS OF FEAR Terrorists use religious and self-righteous claims as a means to unconsciously cover up their own fear and to abet hatred. Their attacks are a message to instill fear and to demonstrate their resolve to wreak havoc in their struggle to empower themselves.
Their egos feel threatened and powerless, so in trying to empower their egos they fall further into hatred with a responsive belief that they are doing the right thing. With so much negative energy circling they become a slave to it.
Plus, wanting their cause to grow, they use that negative energy to attract others. And it works. More people join terrorist organizations out of fear and conditioning. Fear attracts more negative energy and fear.
THE FEAR BOOMERANG It does not stop there because that fearful energy boomerangs back to the originators, burgeoning, attracting what they fear (retaliatory attacks and subjugation). It terrorizes them to the point of desperation and thus they attack again.
We don’t know what terrorists as individuals have been through to get this way, yet terrorism is an attention getter that is really a cry for love. It is the ego that doesn’t know how to cope with the stress of change and is afraid.
RISE ABOVE DOUBT Fear of terrorists cycles, boomerangs round and round, growing world-wide, attacking anyone that unconsciously feeds it with worry, prejudice, antagonism or other fear-based traits. All this because of doubt. We all experience fear because we doubt our connection to and the support of the Eternal.
We all are affected in some way by terrorism because each of us carry a trait of fear in our ego and personality. When that trait is activated through worry, hatred, anguish or similitude it adds to the world collective of negative energy, pulling us further into it.
Let us be brave and be a Channel for healing with these practices:
Whenever you experience any type of fear, especially fear of terrorism, look on it as an opportunity to over-come it. That’s putting some positive energy in the equation already.
Practice exercises like the Radiant Heart and the Mental Contact to surround yourself in unconditional Love. Love is a protection. Fear does not exist in Love.
And remember, by being mindful and in the moment we live now. Our thoughts turn away from fear. We interrupt dwelling in negative energy. We let go of resentment and trying to get back at others, knowing that holding on weakens us.
And, we can turn towards the creative aspect in our thinking, in our speech, attitude and actions. Positive creativity builds our inner happiness and joy. Your individual positive creativity can take infinite forms from helping others, the arts, physical sports, exercise, dance, to just being silent.
Remember that You have the support of the Eternal to rise above terrorism, and enact goodwill, altruism and unconditional Love instead of fear.
Love too can circle around the world, increasing the Light in mind and heart.
May You find Love close at hand, Portia SLB
Consider this quote to reflect upon:
“We must live peace, be one with it. That is our problem, our final aim as Lightbearers. We must gird ourselves with the sword of courage. We must fight, not on the battlefield of killing, but on destroying all that is opposing real happiness within us.”
We all suffer, and for those of us on a conscious spiritual journey we may suffer emotionally more than anything. As we travel along gaining more and more experiences, there is the process of learning from our mistakes. And this can cause the greatest emotional suffering, yet it is part of the human growth process. The good news is that we can rise above it.
There are egotistic challenges …
Like guilt, self-righteousness, pride and frustration. Impatience is one that I repeat and I suffer emotionally from with guilt, resentment and even self hatred. Sometimes it seems to be an endless dark, painful tunnel of different negative traits! Yet there is Light of hope and inspiration to continue to fight for Freedom.
One thing egotistic challenges teach us is to be more conscious, alert and aware of temptations that surface. And that they should be faced, rather than pushed down again only to resurface stronger than ever. Better to face and release now than let them fester and grow.
And if we ignore feelings and dealing with trauma and traits that may have initially happened in childhood, we cause ourselves more trauma unknowingly. In childhood if we didn’t have help with trauma, we probably suppressed our emotions, which grew unnoticed. We were naive.
So when we become stressed in our daily life; feeling bothersome feelings like anxiety we may try to soothe or numb ourselves by looking for comfort in overindulgence in unhelpful matters, like over eating, porn, drugs.
Better to face negative emotions and past memories of trauma, rather than continuing to be naive, so we can come to the present moment fully. And feel the uncomfortable emotions and consciously choose to let them go ….. then embrace those emotions that are uplifting. It’s our choice, after all!
The fight for Freedom
Some may encourage us to be humble and forgiving to overcome negative traits, Yet, humility haves connotations and definitions of lowliness and unworthiness. Forgiveness has connotations and definitions of indulging in excuses for wrong doing, or ignoring negativity.
I’ve found that being accepting and compassionate are fitting and accurate. When we can accept our and others egotistic fallibilities as being human we can give up, that is release, the obsession with “being right!”
Self-honesty requires courage. And courage lifts us consciously; it helps us recognize negative patterns of resentment and condemnation without getting all involved and stuck, then feeling guilty about it.
We can be compassionate, see our human fallibility and be willing to do something about it, by releasing it, letting it pass us by. This is being lead by Unconditional Love.
We may initially feel the pain of an egotistic trait or traumatic memory. In fact the pain points to what needs awareness and healing. Sure, self defensiveness may creep up too!
Yet, those egotistic constricts are released when we let them pass us by. And we are able to rise above the pain into understanding, optimism and gratitude.
I become so grateful for becoming aware of different painful emotions …. temptations that where under the surface and have been around a long, long time stemming from childhood trauma.
We can face dark memories and emotions stemming from trauma and be protected. You have the help, and we all do, of The Great Law through Higher Consciousness, with Universal Life Energy as the constant inspiring Source of Power and Unconditional Love. Such Love is our True protection. We merely have to be compassionate and willing to make the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy.
Rise above
It seems obvious that with more self-honesty and release of negative temptations we become less vulnerable to self condemnation and creating more trauma of fearful traits of feeling like a victim, self-hatred and escape-ism.
With acceptance, compassion and release we rise above the emotional pain. And with gracious and compassionate attitudes like alert awareness and optimistic gratitude, we can rise in consciousness.
We can align with our natural state of happiness, Joy, Love and Harmony. Yet, we must be brave!

“Superconsciousness, as the connecting link between the humanly conscious You and the complete real YOU, will be definitely assigned its place in your comprehension.”
Eugene Fersen, The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being, page 283.
We often gladly indulge in things that we least understand.
And that is very true because there are many, many things I can think of just off the top of my head. But the most apparent seems to be endless checking our phones! Then there’s checking the frig and pantry too ….. trying to please certain people ….. and here’s one of my favorites …. automatically answering a question directed at you.
We do things mindlessly, almost automatically. And some of them can bind us, keeping us in loops of habit, occupying our life. Yet, there is an avenue of freedom ….. if you’re willing.
The ego becomes the boss of us
We usually don’t understand why we are urged to check our phones ….. but we think we do. It’s to check the time, which we forget to do, we check messages ….. and the list goes on. Some of us are in dire straits of situations that demand our compliance. And we do it.
The ego becomes the boss of us with traits of fear, longing to be loved, trying to fit in, belonging, being good enough, desiring and being prideful.
So what’s the first step to freedom?
It seems obvious ….. to be aware. To be conscious and alert to the way the mind works in the situation.
Being willing to observe our thoughts and feelings without acting upon them. Being willing to live in the moment fully, observing and letting it wash over us in terms of awareness without judgment. There’s no room for judgment. Things are just the way they are.
And here’s the primary thing that is usually left out …..
The thing that we usually are unconscious of and un-alert to in our thinking and possible response to situations …… the complimentary or the polar to mental awareness ….. and that is Love.
Being in the moment alert and aware, being the non-involved observer can free us to a limited extent. We become free to be independent thinkers ….. independent of habits and fearful emotions. We become courageous in seeing the situation in the light of truth and develop an inner sense of hope to rise above any negativity within us ……. that demands to be obeyed and indulged in.
The human mind will focus on being alert and conscious, yet the essence of our consciousness, which we are to awaken to, is Love.
The human mind is unbalanced without being conscious of Love. The ego dominates us with traits of shame, guilt, grief, fear, desire, anger and pride. Yet when we are willing to go inward during observation and be centered in our Spiritual Heart and Love, then we are protected from the goings on of the ego.
We become conscious of our independent thinking and freedom to choose. And we can choose to stay in loops of compliance or choose the freedom of acceptance, reason, goodwill, and love. We can choose Peace.
Just because we may see the ego working within ourselves or others, doesn’t mean we have to react to it. It just means we have a responsibility to look within to the deepest part of us ….. to Love within and to choose Love for our own sanity and for others.
Mind and Love are the same qualities of the soul. It is the human mind that separates. It is the subconscious ego that indulges in things it least understands.
How do you identify yourself?
When we are young, we may identify with who we are …. with body and mind ….. our name, sex, age, what we do, our job, our tribe, etc…. As we grow, we may identify with what we think, our beliefs, and affiliations.
And as we mature and become conscious of mind’s naivety, from working on ourselves, then we become stronger, wiser, more sincere and more loving. We evolve into our authentic self ….. into what we are becoming …… becoming our true nature ….. strong, wise, sincere, loving ….. Becoming FourSquare …. to Being. Becoming One with the Great All and Being.
Our work starts on the mental level ……
Being willing to be alert and conscious of the subconscious in order to lease it. The ego is not the enemy, rather it serves us. We learn to be alert and conscious from all the challenges we face.
Though the ego will do its best to maintain its unconscious influence and sway over us, consciousness is the director and we can choose our experiences.
We can choose to pause and be conscious before grabbing our phone mindlessly. We can choose to be caring and pleasant rather than pleasing, We can choose to be conscious of questions directed to us and consider how to answer, perhaps with a question. We can choose to let Love lead us.
Let us remember that the essence of Mind and our right of choice…… is Love. You are a reflection of Love. Your essence is Love. A love that is impersonal, all inclusive, uniting.
In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB
“But to love completely, to demonstrate Love in our lives, is more more than that. It means that WE SHOULD ALWAYS TRY TO FEEL LOVING TO OUR FELLOW MEN, TO EXPRESS OUR LOVE-NATURE EVERY INSTANT AS MUCH AS WE CAN.
‘GIVE TO THE STRANGER THE RICHNESS OF THY SMILE,’ is the gentle appeal of Love.”
