Do You have Sympathy for Dark holes? Understanding your Spiritual Teacher

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, shaping your reality

During my early years of studying Science of Being, I remember my Spiritual Teacher helping a fellow student that was feeling so downtrodden, so hopeless that they couldn’t see a way out of the emotional dark hole they had dug for their self. Our Teacher bombarded them relentlessly with questions like, “How is it down there? What are you feeling? Do you want me to push you further down, so you can push off from the bottom?” There was no sympathy at all! That went on for a long while until they both started giggling like children! 

It was an eye opener for me, and quite the adventure in understanding the spiritual teacher that we all have.

Our True Spiritual Teacher

As I observed our Spiritual Teacher above I knew that she was giving us the opportunity to learn how to do the same thing for ourselves: To be observant and completely honest and truthful with ourselves without holding on to fear and hurt. And as we release hurtful emotions, memories, and worries, we are able to rise in consciousness.

And that is the core of a Spiritual Teacher: to learn for ourselves how to build to our Strength, Freedom and Happiness. And that is the core of the Spiritual Teacher that each of us has within, our Higher Self.

Your Spiritual Teacher

The Spiritual Teacher and our Higher Self is caring, loving and empathetic, rather than sympathetic. Actually, there’s no sympathy at all because our Higher Self has no notes of sorrow, fear or anxiety. There’s Wisdom, Inspiration, Love and Joy.

Your Higher Self, your Spiritual Teacher within, guides you now. Your Higher Self does not impose or push with urges or desires. Those would be from the ego. Our Real Self is courageous, a dare and doer. Is optimistic and willing to observe the good, the bad and ugly without condemnation, rather with understanding and inspirations for transcendence.

Our Higher Self guides us with intuition, inspirations and synchronicity. Intuition and synchronicity happens all the time, but we are not always conscious of it. It’s our Higher Self guiding us, pointing the way on our path.

But it’s up to us to make use of it. Like the old euphemism, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.”

do you drink?

Your High Self has guided you to this entry and the teachings of Science of Being. Through all the lessons and exercises in The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being and the original Science of Being books, our coherence with our Higher Self and the lessons guides us step by step to align our physical, mental and emotional being with those Powers that we already are.

Our Higher Self, Spirit is projected into Energy, Intelligence, Truth and Love, the FourSquare. All constructive powers to overcome destructive mistakes like greed, pride, blame, fear, worry.

There are several entries in this website sharing the releasing method like that above. It’s a simple but very effective method to rid yourself of so many destructive emotions like embarrassment, guilt, anger, anxiety and craving. I use it whenever I’m conscious of something bothering me. It’s a real adventure and Joy!

Have you experience distress and used this method?

a world of opportunity

My Higher Self has guided me to the teachings of Science of Being and they have become my spiritual path. I have become a stronger, wiser, and more loving person. It is a great honor and privilege to learn, experience and share the Knowledge aflame with Love.

Your Higher Self is close at hand, guiding You now through intuition, inspiration, and synchronicity. I encourage You be conscious, aware and flow in the opportunities your Inner Spiritual Teacher guides you to.

Ask questions, share experiences and Inspirations to encourage us all. Thank You.

In Light and With Love, PortiaSLB

Raging for ages and lifting the world

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, shaping your reality

Few of us realize what world violence is all about. It’s complicated in humanity’s mind since most disharmony between nations and peoples has been raging for ages and causes may be blurred.

It’s simple really …. it’s all about survival and control. On the surface it’s about survival and control of people, their beliefs, cultures, programming. But on a deeper level it about survival and control of a part all of us that is fading.

Why so much violence

Though we all want peace, wars and violent battles have continued. But many of us are coming to realize that we can not achieve peace and harmony through violent disharmony.

Disharmony surfaces in our world because of disharmony of the human ego within each of us; its beliefs, programming, habits, and pride. The human ego, subconsciousness, is fighting for its survival so violently because more of us are awakening to the Truth.

We are awakening to both … of who we believe we are as people, separate individuals and villages identified by our beliefs, culture and programming … and … what we really are by our unity.

belief about who we are

We believe the who of our name, personality, job, clan, and its egotistic traits. We believe we are right and others are wrong, that we are sick and tired, mad, afraid, guilty, ugly, not good enough. We believe egotistic traits with righteousness, saying it with conviction.

Emotions and beliefs are contagious and spreads, attracting more of the same low frequency energies, emotions and beliefs. And ignorance doesn’t excuse us of the influences of contagion. Instead it opens the door to our personal subconscious, letting beliefs, thoughts and emotions to enter and grow unnoticed.

If we are unaware and unconscious we can be greatly influenced by negative and fearful energies in the world, in the news, media and social platforms.

yet remember …

Once we see and understand the influences of subconsciousness, then we must act to help ourselves release destructive attitudes. Otherwise, what’s the point of understanding?

And that is why so many of the entries that I publish are about recognizing, releasing and rising above the negative traits that we all experience. As we release destructive traits, subconsciousness fades, and we rise above it into higher levels of consciousness

Higher levels of consciousness like optimism and hope are also contagious. The energies of a simple, loving smile is contagious. So is laugher, joy, and willingness.

How can we be constructive?

When we are conscious of and express the FourSquare of our character, optimism, intelligence, truth and love, it is constructive manifestations. The greatest of these is Love and our True protection. We build to our happiness as we continually express the FourSquare of our Soul.

The ego imposes on us, urging us, compelling us to do things. Desire things. Love does not impose on us. Love doesn’t urge us. But we may be guided by our heart and intuition, to express consideration, caring, compassion, Love.

It’s consciously logical to project constructive FourSquare energies of Harmony: Optimism, Intelligence, Truth and Love. It’s our opportunity to act ….. for our own happiness and to help construct harmony in the world.

FourSquare Love in Action

We are free to express and experience whatever we choose. But when we willingly choose Love we consciously rise above subconscious egotism and rage fades.

Harmony affects everything, including the human ego. Indeed when we choose Love and Harmony we lift the world.

Energy Suckers, Part 3 – Emotional Overwhelms and Spiritual Leaps

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, Meditations and Exercises, Practices, shaping your reality

Most of us are bedeviled by life crises at one time or another, but for many of us past childhood upheavals become lifetime challenges that still affect us, though we are not always conscious of it.

Jolts like being separated from loved ones, abuse, assault, or loss become as living nightmares and emotional overwhelms with feelings of self-blame, resentment, self-pity, shame and anger.

Yet, they point to real spiritual opportunities for leaps in consciousness.

Overwhelmed

For example, as a child I was separated from my loving mother due to divorce, but eventually we were rejoined. During the transitions I was acutely overwhelmed, feeling powerless and afraid of what might happen next. And more did happen because I was neglected and abused during our separation, which I kept secret for years.

It wasn’t until adulthood that I got spiritual counseling and shared my childhood experiences with my mother. And to find out, she also had overwhelming emotional experiences during those times and as a child herself.

truth will out

Years ago, most children wouldn’t speak out about abuse, neglect or trauma because as children we where naive and easily programmed to keep quiet about such things. There weren’t resources or education readily available to help. And our guardians had been conditioned the same as us.

Even as adults, instead of speaking out, revealing the truth and seeking help to free ourselves of the burdens, we tend to hold on to harmful secrets. Accumulated negative energies can manifest through nightmares, habitual anxiety, dark moods, destructive behaviors, and even illnesses.

Remember The Infinite Presence, The Absolute, is more powerful than negative emotional overwhelms and ensures our return to Harmony. We have freedom to choose our path in life and in healing.

Spiritual practices can lead to healing and leaps in consciousness, as shared in this entry. And there are organizational resources offering help now with links below.

tried and true spiritual tools for healing

1 – Consciously contact Universal Life Energy. You are opening yourself to the Absolute, God, on a physical level. Just by cupping your hands up and silently going within you can focus on your unity. You can feel It.

Contact with that All Positive Energy, Light, Embracing Law and Unconditional Love counterbalances the negative, and begins to tip the energy scale, so to speak, to positive, constructive energies.

2 – I’ve found Relaxation and Silence to be the easiest and most uplifting practice to become conscious of being in the ubiquitous Universal Energy field. And it naturally leads to the Mental Contact with that Power.

3 – Willingly notice emotional upset without resistance when it rises.

Instead, honestly acknowledge feelings or pain without labeling or getting caught and circling in them. Fearful thoughts and feeling negative thoughts will eventually run out.

But, if you label thoughts and feelings like, I am worthless, then you are owning it, holding on to it, and will manifest like qualities. If you resist or try to suppress negative judgments, they just become stagnate and accumulate to surface with more force later.

4 – Further the process of release with negation. Mentally put negative thoughts and feelings like self-pity, resentment, or anxiety mentally behind you. Recognize but release them because they are not the Real, harmonious you.

5 – Instead, consciously acknowledge Eternal Harmony within yourself, using I am statements of Truth in a soft voice, like “I am One with Universal Life Energy that is flowing through me Now. I am indissolubly connected to Eternal Harmony manifesting all the same qualities of Universal Power, Cosmic Consciousness, Immutable Truth and Unconditional Love.”

This is especially beneficial just before sleep because you are infusing the mind, body and emotions with Truth and Divine Love, and resting in it overnight.

6 – Having aligned with Harmony within, the next step, and the most important, is to examine the cause behind the overwhelm so it can be recognized and eliminated.

The cause will be from a conflict in the subconscious that is out of alignment with Harmony; out of alignment with the FourSquare. Reasons including distorted perceptions, the way you’ve been taught to react, programming in the family or society, self-recrimination, or trying to control things.

Listen to your Higher Self and intuition and when you realize the cause, let it fade without resistance or fear. Negativity naturally fades as you align with Harmony.

A shift in consciousness occurs from seeing the situation as it is. We enter a higher level and understanding of truth. I experience a sense of calm understanding and peace.

7 – This, to me, is the most uplifting aspect in the healing process as we return full circle to Harmony …..Those doing conscious spiritual work already aim to be aware of what arises in the present moment. There is a willingness to look within to that awareness that is silent. And in Silence, it’s natural to realize the Universal Energy field of what some call Presence.

We become conscious of something greater than ourselves ,,,,,. Presence of Harmony.

We are naturally attracted to the Presence of Harmony. Even if that conscious Oneness fades, we know It is there and will have a spiritual intent to consciously return to that Harmony.

At present

With patience and perseverance, an emotional upheaval can promote a transformative spiritual leap in consciousness ….. We reconnect with the essence of what we are, evolving our perspective of life.

I encourage you to use these practices and seek help as you are guided with the many more resources for assault, death of loved ones, and other traumas.

Energy Suckers, Part 2 – Bad Reactions and how to reestablish Harmony

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, Practices, shaping your reality

During our daily spiritual journey there are energy suckers from within that can distract us from our intents meant for strength, success, happiness, and spiritual unity.

And the easiest way to become conscious of subconscious traits that derail us and cause things to go sideways is to observe our reactions concerning someone else. Others can act as a mirror to see ourself.

And, if any negative traits surface, like resentment, guilt or dread, remember it is a real spiritual opportunity!

Troubling reactions

Since everyone is different, then different notes may be aroused when we interact with others. When you begin to notice something bothersome stirring within, pay attention and notice without getting involved, thinking and feeling thoughts. Remember they are energy suckers that distract you from your core of harmony.

Some destructive energies can be subtle like impatience, resentment, pride, defensiveness, boredom, or comparison. Or appear as strong pulls toward anger, hate, disgust, sadness, jealousy, regret, or fear.

Just notice any traits that are triggered without harsh judgment, remembering that they are temporary thoughts and feelings that will pass. Negative traits are not the real you.

Listen to your Intuition and begin to fight for your harmony.

The Present Moment is empowering!

I have found it essential to pause. I take some deep, slow breathes and silently go within. In advantageous conditions I close my eyes.

Both body and mind begin to relax. And when the mind relaxes its attachment to thinkingness relaxes. Let sensations, thoughts and feelings flow by without giving them attention. It becomes natural for mind to gravitate to peace and silence that is always there.

When you become Silent within, then it’s an opportunity to become conscious of the ubiquitous Universal Energy field. In that contact with Universal Life Energy you are countering the undesirable trait with All Positive Energy and the other qualities of Intelligence, Truth and Love.

You are choosing and allowing uplifting energies and your character and experiences will eventually change as those qualities surface in your consciousness.

More Positive Responses

Calmly negate any destructive thoughts and feelings like anger throwing them in a mental trashcan. Instead reach for Positive qualities that are naturally within your Heart like Gratitude, Optimism, Understanding, Compassion and Love.

Deliberately change discouraging thoughts to allow more uplifting, feel good thoughts that will attract more uplifting thoughts. For example, if you observe jealousy rise its head, deliberately allow yourself to be happy for the other person. And this attracts more uplifting thoughts and emotions like gratitude and compassion.

I have experienced first hand negative, low frequency personality traits surface repeatedly that sucked optimism right out of me. I’ve found resentment very subtle, but when it cropped up I quickly focused on gratitude in silence.

Live in the Present Moment. Use it. And act to re-align with your spiritual intents using the FourSquare as a map to happiness.

The Core

It’s a process of being courageous enough to be honest about ourself, releasing negativity and remembering what we truly are. I have repeatedly fought for harmony and have come to know the core of what I am. And so can you.

I invite You to share your own experiences or insights for overcoming negative reactions concerning someone else.

Top ways to master challenges that threaten the Spiritual seeker’s progress

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, Meditations and Exercises, shaping your reality

It’s amazing the emotions we can mentally repress. One of them is anger…..and it can be shocking when it explodes to our consciousness! Another is shame or humiliation ….. we may despise ourselves when it surfaces. Or it may be hopelessness ….. but we are aware of feeling despair, or even depressed. Any of these could hamper a spiritual seeker’s progress if we let it fester.

What can a spiritual seeker do?

1. See it as a Spiritual opportunity

When an egotistic challenge surfaces, especially a repressed one that suddenly explodes, consider it an excellent spiritual opportunity! It may be rooted in a trauma, yet see it for what it is …… a real, precious spiritual opportunity to overcome and raise your consciousness.

Life challenges us to express our Soul qualities ever stronger. We have to be conscious and aware of any egotistic trait or emotion that threatens our health and happiness in order to do anything about it. Be conscious that it is fleeting and not the Real You. Rather it is a temporary illusion that you can overcome, and constructively progress on your spiritual journey to fulfill your soul’s destiny.

2. Develop patience and perserverance

Your Soul endeavors to expose and purge every egotistic opposition to its freedom. And though not all obstacles may be overcome immediately, with patience and perseverance you can progress.

Blend reasoning and intuition, and let enlightened Understanding strengthen your Soul qualities of optimism, wisdom, sincerity and compassion to meet challenges.

We have within the ability to overcome every challenge that comes our way because the Great Law would not stop progress. Every step that overcomes an obstacle adds to our spiritual progress. Bit by bit we evolve.

3. Come to the present moment

Relax and take some deep breathes to energize the body and brain and bring awareness into the present moment, knowing that the present moment is all there is. Now is powerful and the only moment where great opportunities are within reach, because we exist only now.

4. Continually contact Universal Life Energy

Contact the Power of Universal Love and Attraction, Universal Life Energy, which attracts the very Soul qualities within that help you face obstacles. And know that you are not alone in the fight for harmony.

See any apparent defeat as another opportunity to realize that defeat is only a defeat if we see it that way. Learn from challenges and meet them ever stronger with your Soul qualities of Strength, Intelligence, Truth and Love.

Life is meant for your happiness and enjoyment. If any repressed trauma does surface be gentle with yourself and face it with unconditional Love. Choose to feel grateful for the opportunity to face it consciously and rise above it.

5. Express the FourSquare

All that arises and happens in our life are spiritual opportunities, even those that are devastatingly ugly and can kill our bodies. Endeavor to accept any lesson that surfaces and proceed with optimism, understanding, sincerity and above all Love (the FourSquare).

Love is a Power and a Universal Law. It governs the Universe in Harmony. So identify with It mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s the surefire way to progress on your Spiritual journey.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“Every time you overcome a difficulty or an obstacle, you unfold a corresponding quality of your Soul. That much is added to the sum of your knowledge, strength and power, and by the measure of that increase you have advanced just so much in your Evolution.”

Another uncomfortable pitfall of the seeker that can be subtle!

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, shaping your reality

There are many pitfalls on a spiritual seeker’s journey to evolve beyond the ego and one of the most uncomfortable is repressed anger. It can be subtle ….. because it may be just under the covers so to speak …. But it can also brust to the surface suddenly and shake us to the core!

It is a destructive energy and we may act on it unknowingly. There may be feelings of wanting to be better than others, of feeling self-righteous, of the need to give your opinion, of the need to protest, of the need to win and not be defeated.

We are ambitious. And repressed anger can suddenly rush to the surface and we are sooo mad that it hurts!

We want to win and the desire may be so strong that it could be at any cost! It’s the way of most politically minded individuals.

We’ve been conditioned that way….. to compete…. to strive to be better than everyone else. We compare ourselves to others. And judge.

And until repressed anger comes to the surface it is not processed and we rise above it. Repressed anger can morph into physical or mental issues. We see it in today’s society. We’re loud! It’s the lower ego.

Yet, those of us on a conscious spiritual journey can be constructively aggressive rather than destructively angry. We can be constructively aggressive by being considerate and caring, releasing fear in our hearts. By being sincere. By practicing Silence and listening to the Inner Voice and guidance. Thus, we counteract impatience, pride, fear and anger.

And when you are tempted by anger and repressed anger suddenly surfaces, be kind to yourself. Relax, take a deep breath and know that You are not alone in your fight for Inner Peace. You have the help of the Eternal and a host of others that fight for Inner Peace. Make the Mental Contact and let It help You.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

” We must fight, not on the battlefield of killing, but on destroying all that is opposing real happiness with us. …. We are fighting in the army of the Eternal. ….. there should be no fear in our hearts, no matter what the pressure of the negative or the Astral. We should not say we are alone. We are not. We should rise above it and say, ‘I have within me the Sword of Truth, my helmet is the Inspiration from above.’

Eugene Fersen, Advanced Teachings In Science of Being Volume II, page 124.

Today’s consideration: The lie about lying!

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, Mindfulness, shaping your reality

We might as well face it …. lying is a sign of being afraid! There is no such thing as a little white lie meant to protect someone or something. It still comes from fear, is unbeneficial, and a mistake. It would be more beneficial to say nothing at all. Habitual lying is a form of slavery for pretense and hypocrisy.

To realize the truth about lying begins to free us from the fear that grips the ego into believing that lying is a tool to use from time to time for the good of ourselves and others. It’s not a protection from getting hurt, shame, guilt, or despair. It’s cowardly and a barrier from experiencing Trust in Life and the Universe. It’s holds us back from expressing our innate love and experiencing love from others.

Out of fear we are tempted to lie. Yet, the temptation to lie is a temporary condition ….. it will pass. We need only to pause and observe without attachment the way we are tempted to think in the moment.

When we realize this through experience, we are able to recognize traits of the ego like lying, like greed, guilt and criticism are mistakes in the making when we succumb to them. They are based in fear. We can instead choose to align with Truth, with honesty, sincerity, and accuracy.

And the potential for Understanding, compassion and love for ourselves and others rises naturally. We get closer and closer to Unconditional Love. And the Truth of our Real Self is unveiled.

And thus our Joy and Happiness increases too.

Kinda of ordinary to extraordinary…Brilliant help!

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.

Delirium while seeking Inner Peace

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!

4 more mind blowing practices for instant expansion and happiness

#1 You are the master of your life.

No matter how much you may be tempted to place blame someone else You are responsible for your life…… for your experiences, mistakes and successes, challenges and opportunities. You are the path maker and path taker, the dreamer and the builder.

And no matter how tempting negative urges may be, like impatience and worry, you are very capable of observing them within yourself without involvement.  

For example, when I am negatively criticized I immediately notice that I may be tempted to choose a revengeful, verbal attack. Yet, I become conscious of the temptation because of the way it feels …. dark.

This may happen to you also, but know that after that first time you recognize such a temptation and choose to let it go, You will choose to release it again and again …… because of the way it feels …. harmonious. And Peace will be upon you.

But even when we do fall into negative temptations, we can learn from the experience. Our Higher Self helps us recognize Truth through intuition, gut feelings, instinct and even reason.

There is no comprise with Truth. It is Truth always. It is what It is. And when I recognize that I’ve fallen into a fear based temptation, like guilt and self-punishment, I am Grateful for my Higher Self’s recognition and the Truth of it. And I know that I have the freedom of choice to move beyond the mistake and return to sanity and Love. And that freedom is so inspiring.

#2 see yourself in others

Relationships are wonderful opportunities to expand our happiness, including those that may seem challenging. We are not here to judge or to change anyone else, rather to learn to love and evolve as we travel our own spiritual path ….. to change ourself and be lead by Love in our earthly life.

As we come to know our own good, bad and ugly without attachments, we can walk alongside another person and get insights into their conditioning that hold them in subconscious habits and traits similar to us.

And You may begin to see yourself in them. Recognition can stir a longing and hope for them to suffer less.

And You may feel compassionate energy spring from your heart, touch them and eventually return to you increased even though you expected nothing in return. It’s the Laws of Attraction and Compensation being factors in your reality. 

#3 Relate to everything!

Everything is connected through Universal Life Energy and you can feel It. You can cup up your hands, silent the thinking mind and feel Universal Life Energy flowing through You, flowing through Mother Nature, the plants, the trees, the earth, the air, the expansive of the universe.

You can observe the Beauty in a nonattached state that is impersonal, yet deeply moving and loving. And feel yourself expand mentally and your emotions soar!

#4 This naturally leads to gratitude and ways to express it

As You recognize your interconnection with the Universe, You may come to feel a deep, sincere gratitude. And compassion may rise in your Heart with an intent of easing suffering in the world. And with the help of the Great Principle this intent will also ease suffering within yourself.

Consider Transmitting Universal Life Energy and Love to the World practice. It is very Inspiring and also a bridge to your soul. 

In the hope you find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB
