Step 3 to Spiritual Awareness

All of us value self-reliance and freedom. Even children exercise their ability to make their own decisions and establish independence. And as adults we continue daily efforts for our freedom, strength and happiness.

Ultimately our efforts are to awaken to the reality of Eternal Existence as Spiritual Beings. Spiritual awareness can come to those of us that focus our energies in a clearcut, concentrated spiritual direction.

And there are some fundamental steps that builds the pyramid of our life to the peak of Spirit. All of these steps may start on the mental level, but they permeate all levels, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual.

First step

The first step is to pause and go silent. A daily exercise called Relaxation and Silence can help you pause and go silent in any moment of your daily life experiences.

Bring your mental focus within yourself, taking some deep, slow breathes and becoming calm and present in the moment. Relax the body, gradually let any circling of monkey chatter thinking go quiet. That’s when we can allow ourselves to become conscious of profound peace within.

Second Step

The second step is to become aware of the witness within without judgments and labels. In this step we deliberately choose to step into a higher conscious frequency. It’s simple.

Pause, become silent and conscious of the witness within. And be compassionate. Courageously face the challenge of the ego with all its obstinate thoughts and emotions with a compassionate Heart and Deep Love. Be willing to accept yourself and the moment with Understanding and Inspirational Harmony.

Negate any thought or emotion that does not serve the better good, throwing it in a mental trashcan. Then purposefully choose higher levels of consciousness like optimism, understanding, trust and love.

the 3rd step

The third step is to become aware of something greater than ourselves, of an unknown mysterious presence. And we can do this very easily when we allow it.

We all experience the Great Causeless Cause Itself within us as life. That Power outside of ourselves is known as Universal Life Energy. And it is the very foundation and essence of All ….. Matter, Mind, Emotion and Spirit.

Because of pride, impatience and conceit we willfully broke our conscious connection with the Source of All Power in our efforts to becomes self-sufficient. Yet, now is our opportunity to restore our lost connection with simple methods of contact.

The most simple is the physical Star Exercise in which you open your body, turning your left palm upward to attract the Universal Power outside of yourself with your own Life Center acting as a magnet.

That contact may feel like a tinglingly of a warm or cool energy, but if you are not conscious of feeling It, then just relax. You are automatically attuning yourself with the Cosmic Currents because of the Law of Attraction. And eventually the Truth of the contact will help harmonize doubt or fear.

When you are conscious of contact with the Absolute through Universal Life Energy physically, then you are becoming conscious of being One with the Absolute on higher planes, mental and Spiritual.

Another simple practice is the Mental Contact

In this Mental Contact you physically relax your body and once you feel harmony within, you open the mental door to assert your union with Universal Life with audible Declarations of Truth:

“I am One with Universal Life Energy, that is flowing through me Now. I feel It.”

And feeling that Power physically is evidence that You are One with the Absolute on the Spiritual, Soul level too because what is True on one level is True on another.

It’s just a matter of what we allow ourselves to become conscious of!

In these practices you are beginning to become conscious of your unity with the Great Principle, God because you are feeling the Truth of the Absolute physically ….. that You are One with the Eternal spiritually.

We may physically feel It as Universal Life Energy and/or as a mysterious unknown presence.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“You must remember that on the Mental Plane you are a law unto yourself. If you believe in a thing, that thing will become a reality to you. But if you doubt or fear, that doubt or fear also becomes a reality to you and prevents you from realizing the thing you want.”

DANCE ON WATER
Your reflection is rippled and distorted in the human mind,                                                     yet your Higher Self knows
You dance on water, You float on air!

You are a gentle soul that unfolds petal,                                                                                by 1,000 petals
so that your tender heart is disclosed.

You are a friend, then foe, then Friend exposed.

You are a jewel in the silence,
a Light like the sun.
You are ‘I am’ and part of ‘I AM ONE.’ PSLB
Allow change, especially within yourself

It is very obvious that things are always changing. It’s a Law of Nature…. Everything is vibration ….. always vibrating, moving, changing ….. even solid stone.

People who reminisce, adore nostalgia, and go over and over memories in their head live in the past. They create a habit of a clinging mind, trying to figure out things or keep things the way they were. Their circling in such monkey chatter can become a sort of misery.

A way out is going silent, relaxing the body and most of all letting the monkey chatter go quiet. In the Silence we gradually become more and more aware of being in the presence of something greater than ourself …… feeling that connection to a mysterious Power that is constantly vibrating ….. feeling calm and at peace.

This physical Power is the physical energy of Presence, the Life and Love of the Universe, called prana, chi, or Universal Life Energy. We can physically and mentally feel It. And It helps us emotionally free ourselves from self-imposed constrictions of memories inducing quilt, shame and resentment.

In the moment

Even when we are busy during our day we can at any moment pause, go silent, and become aware of the profound presence of Universal Life and Love. We can mentally focus and connect with It. And we will experience in our Hearts and Minds all the qualities of the Supreme …… Power, Wisdom, Sincerity, Love and Peace. We feel Joy and being fulfilled.

We become balanced in the center ….. aware of Life, Intelligence, being One with the Universal Principle and Love. We witness Beauty and appreciate it. We witness the wonder of Life and the inspiration of Wisdom.

And on the deeper level we are becoming aware of our connection to ALL and our Soul.

The spiritual seeker becomes a seeker of Truth.

The human mind is rippled with fears, guilts, doubts and denials. The witness within observes without labels and judgements, remaining centered in silence.

Be open to change, and avoid thoughts and behaviors that try to prevent it. Water and its different states is a symbol of mind. And just as water freezes, living in memories can keep us frozen too. But when we are willing to live in the moment and appreciate it we can dance on water, allowing change, and even celebrate it. That way we won’t miss opportunities for more understanding and allowing in our life.

Relaxation, Silence and purposefully connecting to the Infinite …… These are the first step to greater spiritual awareness.

“You realize gradually that the Success, or Good, in you life comes in direct proportion to your unification with Universal Forces and Laws, while the disharmonious results, such as failure, poverty, disease and trouble, are the inevitable consequences of your separation from or opposition to those Laws, either through ignorance, fear or self-will.”

Instant Peace and Harmony

Sometimes we can be tormented by the continuous thinking and dwelling in negative traits like regret, anxiety, and craving. We don’t like it or want it, but we can’t seem to stop ourselves. When I am tempted ….. I consciously choose to observe the ego in a detached state and I naturally become grateful for the help of my Higher Self.

HARMONIZATION is the most beneficial practice I’ve experienced that brings me calm peace and expansion into happiness. And this opportunity is always available in an instant.

With practice of Relaxation and Silence you open your body and mind to the influx of Universal Life Energy, the harmonizing Power of the Universe ….. And it leads to a greater awareness of your connection and Oneness with Universal Consciousness or Divine Mind ….. where we are guaranteed Peace and Harmony.

“No circumstances even of the utmost danger can disturb” the calm and peace of mind and emotions when you experience Harmonization:

“After you have relaxed, entered into Silence and made the Contact with Universal Life Energy, concentrate on the Love Aspect of that Force from which Peace and Harmony spring.

Eugene Fersen, The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being, page 380.

Allow yourself to trust the Supreme Power and let inspiration draw you into the core of your Spiritual Heart and your innate Oneness with Infinite Harmony. …..”it makes you master over yourself.”

It’s simple and this can be achieved in an instant, in any moment. The only thing you must do is be willing to pause and consciously reconnect with Unconditional Love ….. with that which you are already.

Being willing is very different from using counter-constructive egotistic, human will. There is trust and love; motivation by inspiration. You surrender and deliver yourself into the arms of Divine Mind.

You allow yourself to experience in your present physical form the Divine that you are. It’s a paradox; an effortless phenomenon of duality/unity. And NOW becomes an exquisite moment of enjoyment, happiness and harmony that expands and grows into future possibilities.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“There can be no compromise with Love. It is an Impersonal Force, All-Pervading, All-Powerful, Supreme. No human Will can affect in the slightest the Power that holds the Universe in its grip. If you accommodate yourself it it, you will reap all the advantages that such a Strength can achieve.”

4 more ways that blow your mind into expansive Happiness

5 ways to claim your Power and transcend a ‘bad’ day

When I asked a stressed parent what their top way to turn a day around was they said, “to drop the kids at the grandparents!” Made me giggle because I understand that logic!

All of us can feel like we are having a bad day at one time or another! Yet know that you have the Power to transcend it!

#1. Pause, take a deep breath!

So simple and effective to reclaim your connection with Life and the Source of All Power. resetting your body’s energies and your mind’s too! With that pause and deep breath you are drawing in the Life of the Universe! And It will help you recenter in your Inner confidence to work out things for the best outcome.

As you exhale your body will automatically release some stress and begin to relax, along with your thinking. Stress is based in fear on the mental/emotional levels, so choosing to pause is choosing to recenter mentally in calm rather than negative opinions.

In that calm is the opportunity to deliberately synchronize your thinking and body body with Infinite Harmony ….. Make the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy and let it flow. Be in the flow, in the vortex of harmonious Life.

#2. Move!

Walk to a different location to be in different atmospheric energies and move your auric energies. Walking can disperse hormonal chemicals related to stress and even soothe neurons in the brain.

Research has shown walking in nature is even better, decreasing anxiety as we synchronize with those natural energies.

If you notice your body language says aggravated or weak, elevate it! Bring your shoulders back and head up into a natural upright position which will also help you synchronize with your innate, confidence and strength.

#3. Change the story you’ve been telling yourself.

Pause in your thinking and mentally relax, becoming quiet, calm and the watcher of the thinker.

Recognize what is going right in your day. The moment you choose a loving thought you are realigning with Harmony and your natural state!

Remember you are an Infinite Being of Light and not subject to attachment to fears like worry and resentment habits. Observe in a detached state, releasing any temptation to think more, labeling and identifying with negative opinions.

You are a Light and Love Being! You, as an Infinite Soul, express all the same qualities as the Eternal: Life, Intelligence, Law and Love.

#4. Remember challenges point to opportunities to heal!

As in the quote below, effect points to the cause! And what we mentally focus on tends to manifest. So we can transcend karma by lifting and transcending our mental level of consciousness ….. that is we can deliberately transcend stress in the moment and in our life.

Through our intent we can express Harmony. It is mapped out for us as the FourSquare. By expressing in our attitudes and behaviors: Enthusiasm, Intelligence, Sincerity and Love we raise our consciousness and transcend ‘bad day’ attitudes.

And contacting Universal Life Energy can also helps us be conscious of those inner qualities and express them.

#5. choose happiness!

We choose what to anchor the mind and our thinking in! Choose happiness! Deliberately choose higher levels of consciousness like Optimisium, meaningful Reason, unconditional Love, All the FourSquare!

Gratitude can help. Once you recognize one reason to be grateful, I’ve found that many, many more become obvious to us! And this lifts our consciousness.

*****

Once our human mind starts to identify a day as ‘bad’ it tends to circle in negative thinking, monkey chatter. Yet, we can choose the way of happiness!

4 essentials to reestablish Harmony in your life!

Photo PSLB Thailand 2023

From my own experience …. we unconsciously cling to disharmony! Consciously we don’t want to ….. but disharmony will poke its ugly head up in various ways ….. in life situations, as painful emotions, negative attitudes and unbalanced bodies.

This is an amazing thing to realize!

Disharmony in our life exists because of the Law of Harmony! We consciously want to be happy and even the subconscious ego desires happiness, but the ego is also neurotic, causing disharmony. 

When the subconscious ego hits against Harmony it creates an egotistical concept of disharmony and we suffer. The unconscious strategy of the subconscious ego is to get attention and drama pays! The ego can unconsciously make you feel like you have to perform to get any attention. And thus, we grumble, complain, shout, protest, and declare war.

Your authentic self quests for Harmony

When things really get bad, a sincere person goes silent and asks why: Why do I suffer this pain and hurt? 

It is a turning point. You are beginning to become conscious, and quest to find the cause of disharmony and how to avoid it. This is how we begin to find harmony. 

Balance these FourSquare essentials for harmony

#1 . Go Silent.

Thinking is very addictive! So take some deep breathes and practice Relaxation and Silence at least once a day. Stop fighting, stop performing  and begin relaxing in the moment. Peace is your natural state and your soul qualities surface in peacefulness.

And, consider contacting Universal Life Energy, the Force of the Universe and Great Principle to help you.

#2. Use your intelligence wisely.

Try to understand yourself, the way your mind and ego works, the reason for disharmony. This will help you understand and relate to others. 

Meditation can help you align with your Higher Self, your supersonciousness. Slowly, slowly as your silent quest for answers deepens so does your understanding.

#3. Work to be truthful and sincere.

Find that sincere feeling within yourself and honestly express it! The Universe is always sincere and it helps us when we are too.

#4. The key to Harmony is Love.

Express Love simply. Be decent. We are all connected so have goodwill towards others and hope the best for them. And, be consciously grateful for the so called little things in your life and the big things.

Lack of gratitude has a terrible impact on our life. It is an indication that mind has turned away from Love and our mind gone cold. Gratitude warms our heart and mind.  

Avoid disharmony

Mind is the leader here on earth, so when you are conscious of love in your thoughts, when you choose love, then the rest of you follows. Your attitudes, emotions and behaviors also express love. You are cooperating with harmony, aligning with Harmony.

Harmony is essential in all things 

Deep inside we all quest for Harmony and Love. And Harmony is always here to help you.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“We are not victims of disharmony, because disharmony would have taken good care of us. Devils are always pictured as taking good care of their fellow devils. Like protects like. What brought misery into the World? Not evil, but the Law of Harmony. Harmony is manifested in a world of disharmony. It is the worst enemy of those who are disharmonious.”

Eugene Fersen, Advanced Teachings in Science of Being, Volume I, pages 93- 94.

Shouldn’t we be aggressive?

Photo PSLB

We all are searching and desire happiness. At the heart of it is we are searching for Love. We search for that special someone to fall in romantic love with. And when we do, we seem to float on air and see the world through rose colored glasses. 

Eventually we come back down to earth. 

And this is when aggressiveness and courage becomes a great benefit to us. …. kindly use link…We should be aggressive in this

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

Doing this helps us face challenges head on!

When we consciously think well of others it helps heal ourselves and the world. Manifesting unconditional Love while we are at work, doing errands, at home or anywhere, we are living a conscious heart. Our Spiritual Heart is where our innate Wise Love is seated.

And manifesting those qualities of our Soul with Love leading us refines our character and lifts us on the mental and physical planes, helping us face any challenge before us. We free ourselves from the ego’s demands and can choose a path that benefits ourselves and everyone around us.

There will be a state of calm and harmony within us, which helps us clear our thinking to consciously choose to Be FourSquare expressing Enthusiasm, Intelligence, Sincerity and most of all Love. And these choices are in harmony with the qualities of Source and our very Soul. The effect, being in harmony with Source, will be of the most benefit.

“Similarly, you must radiate from yourself the Magnetic Power of Love which will draw like response from those with whom you come in contact.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being (looseleaf in 27 Lessons), page 633.

Joy in Pink

“The more we apply the Law of Love in our lives, the stronger we become on our positive side, and the greater is the harmony within us, until finally we reach a condition of such harmony that no negative of any kind can touch us because there is no longer within us a response to anything negative. Then only everything positive will come to us.”

How to super charge your food with the Life Energy of the Universe!

Evening meal time was family time everyday when my kids where small. And my children always contributed in the preparation when they were young. We had cooking lessons which began with attitude checks ….. because our attitude is the most important ingredient in any recipe. And then there is another step just before eating!

Most of us know to avoid food preparation and cooking without Love in our hearts and minds. Thoughts are energy vibrations and so are emotions, so if we are engaged in negative self-talk, feeling resentment, guilt, worry or anger when preparing meals, then that energy is added to the food.

You can end up eating harmful energies without being conscious of it! Those energies enter you and can clog your body and contribute to blocking your mind from knowing that You are a Light in the world!

So how can we protect ourselves and Super Charge our food, especially when we don’t even know who is preparing our food or their attitude?

We can charge our food with Universal Life Energy before eating. And it is very simple.

Before eating, Relax and become Silent and sincerely make the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy:

Photo PSLB

“Begin by gently relaxing the body while sitting upright with both hands cupped up resting on the thighs to receive Universal Life Energy, or the left palm up and the right palm down.  

Once a feeling of calm and Harmony begins to pervade the mind and emotions, say in a soft voice:

‘I am One with Universal Life Energy. It is flowing through me now. I feel it.’

With this practice You open the doors between You and the Life Energy of the Universe because you have stated Truth on the Spiritual, mental and physical planes in those three statements. You are one with Truth and Law and when you become conscious of it you are mentally giving life to it within and manifesting it as reality on the physical, earthly plane. You are using all of your Soul qualities and realizing the Law of Spirit: Life, Mind, Truth, Love and Spirit is All in All.”

Once you begin to feel the flow of Life Energy flow through you, pinch the fingers of your right hand together and allow the Energy to flow from your fingertips, while the left hand continues to receive the Energy. The nerves of the left hand receives the Energy, attracted by your Life Center and Heart, circles in the body, mind and emotions then exits, returning to the Universe from the finger tips of the right hand.

Circle the Energy over your meal with your right hand finger tips, continuing to hold the Mental and Physical Contact. And, of course, always feel Love in your Heart ….. Unconditional Love and gratitude for Life, Intelligence, Law and Love.

Universal Life Energy naturally harmonizes and energies anything it flows through, super charging You and in turn your mind and emotions! You are allowing a blessing of the food …. allowing the Universe, The Eternal, to super charge it and bring the vibrations in synch with your own.

I hope You find this practice as beneficial as I have. Kindly let me know how it goes!

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“Only as you mold yourself, through the conscious and constant use of Universal Life Energy, in every department of you life, to the dominant Four Square of Life, Mind, Law (Truth) and Love can you achieve the Poise, Harmony and Power with that will attune you to the Perfect /source of All Power.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being (loose leaf lesson 19), page 456.

You and Unconditional Love

PhotoPSLB

Though we believe that unconditional Love is something far from us ….. it is near at hand. We experience Unconditional Love in our daily reality when feel grounded by the pull of earth’s gravity ….. when we enjoy the clouds and feel the sun upon our face …… when we appreciate and return the smile of a stranger in passing.

Yet, even more evident is when we manifest Unconditional Love! When we Unconditionally Love a child that does things that we are not happy about. Nevertheless we Love them and help them through hardships.

Humans make mistakes, experience flaws and karmic conditions. Unconditional Love understands that, witnessing it with clear vision and compassion. And with compassion we can lend a hand to help find a way through troubles. 

Manifesting Unconditional Love

With Unconditional Love, one of the most powerful things we can do for a love one that has to face the consequences of their own negative behaviors, is to reflect back to them their own lovingness. 

With Unconditional Love we can be kind and reflect their own love back to them by reminding them of all the wonderful things they have done. Remind them of any kindnesses and considerations they have shown ….. of any gentleness ….. and of any genuine Love they have shown. 

In other words, focus on their spiritual, loving qualities and reflect them back so they might remember their True, Loving Self rather than criticizing their harmful behaviors. Criticizing the latter only reinforces those negative behaviors! 

We experience Unconditional Love when we release the negativity of self-righteous judgements and forgive others because in essence we are forgiving ourselves of guilt and fear!

You are courageous enough to face opinions, self-righteousness, anger, resentments, grudges, guilts squarely. Face the defensiveness and fear and come into your true power of courage! 

That energy field of courage helps you rise into higher consciousness energy fields ….. detaching from the self-righteousness, etc. and you are no longer a victim. You can rise into willingness to commitment to allow happiness …… willingness to commit to being FourSquare, considerate and caring. 

For more, including how Love is your protection and how to Love yourself Unconditionally: Unconditional Love …. How to experience it
