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.

3 Energy Suckers Leading, Part 1-Destructive Urges and how to become Empowered

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Liberating Your Soul, shaping your reality
Photo PSLB

Most of us experience energy suckers within that we avoid harmonizing for one reason or another even though they may cause things to go wrong. Yet they serve as wakeup calls to eliminate from our character and win back Harmony. 

ONe Inner energy sucker is annoying, harmful habits with overpowering urges, cravings, and desires

Understanding any destructive habit is vital because Ignorance, Fear and Apathy are pushy traits that originate in the human mind and holds us in limbo. But our Soul seeks expression in our life and we are here to develop ourselves and eliminate the walls that imprison that which we are. And destructive habits are walls and energy suckers.

Indulging mindlessly

The longer we delay in eliminating destructive conditions the more trouble is drawn to us because of the Law of Attraction. But wishing it away is useless. And denial keeps us in the same condition or worsens it.

So we may try using will power, but human will is limited, and it’s easily observable. We may start the day saying we aren’t going to do a certain thing, but our programming takes over and we indulge in some disadvantageous habit.

And, what’s so amazing is we can indulge without even being aware of what we had promised ourselves until much later! We had become so programmed subconsciously that old brain patterns engage and we mindlessly indulge.

It could be something like easily loosing our tempter, road rage, procrastinating, binge eating, constantly checking the mobile phone, watching porn and staying up late. We just do it automatically, then perhaps regret it later.

Lizard Brain

Research has shown that habitual urges are established programs and patterns in the most primitive part of the brain. Some call it the lizard brain. The subconscious has been programmed and grown unnoticed! Every time you give into an urge it only reenforces the brain pattern that makes it stronger.

Eventually it is gone

The habit has no power over you unless you choose it. Observe the temptation as just that ….. only a temporary, mental urge. And remember that thoughts, feelings, urges are not you!

You can choose to dismiss an urge and accompanying thoughts and feelings, by negating them. And without acting on an urge repeatedly, it eventually fades until no more.

We can pause, take some deep breathes to relax physically and mentally. Remember to contact Universal Life Energy and we begin to change the way we think and behave because we are beginning to change brain patterned programming too. We are choosing the unlimited positive!

This is the most beneficial act we can choose ….. to consciously unite with Universal Life Energy to admit the healing power of Love, the highest aspect.

When any dark urge surfaces remember that it’s an opportunity to eliminate it and harmonize. Contact the Power and let It emphasize the positive and harmonize the negative.

Helpful

Again…. remember that every destructive urge is an opportunity in the present moment to harmonize ourselves and reach for Love.

I’ve found it very helpful to write down the harmful habit and accompanying thoughts and feelings, so I can become more aware, alert and conscious of the freedom of choice when urge voices surface again. And the voices will surface again!

I also write any positive actions/intents in a journal daily to set intents and be conscious of them, especially when urges come to the surface. It’s one day at a time and building on it. There is the opportunity to choose a positive, constructive response rather than obey the negative, destructive urge.

Empowered!

Conscious realization of freedom of choice is empowerment! It’s wisdom, from within. And the more we choose uplifting responses and negate destructive urges, the sooner those urges leaves us.

Urges, cravings, desires, and all thoughts and feelings are fleeting; they’re temporary. So we can pause and let them pass without acting on them, living in the moment. And freely choose uplifting thoughts like gratitude, appreciation, compassion and joy.

For more insights I’ve found resources very helpful and hope you do too: Lesson 23 of The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being by Eugene Fersen and The Little Book of Big Change, The No-willpower Approach to Breaking Any Habit by Amy Johnson, PhD.

There are also groups that serve to help overcome destructive addictions one day at a time with Twelve Step Programs like Alcoholics Anonymous.

Pulling strings of treacherous sub-servant

Featured by Circlelightbearer, posted in Meditations and Exercises, shaping your reality

We get preoccupied with our human reality, dealing with it, and even getting lost in it. And, as discussed in the last posting, the subconscious ego has a great influence in our life. It can be treacherous, causing us challenges. And it can be so dominating that there is very little chance of us having real rational thought!

Yet, subconsciousness can serve us when we pull the strings that challenge us and clear a way for our happiness and destiny.

STRINGS AND SLIPPERY SLOPE OPERATIONS

We become conditioned to react in similar ways to similar situations because our thoughts follow established and well-traveled brain synapse paths from past experiences stored in the subconscious. Subconsciousness has accepted every thought, emotion and experience indiscriminately and let them grow unnoticed.

However, those energies eventually return to our conscious reality in warped states. We can circle in resurfacing egotistic traits like guilt, regret, and angry from the past and unreasonable anxiety and fear about the future. We don’t appreciate and enjoy the present.

When we are honest with ourselves and the condition of the ego, we raise our level of consciousness into courage, which helps us evolve, even more. One of the best ways to become more aware of egotistic traits with ourselves is to observe how we react to other people!

PULLING THE STRINGS

So when you become aware of feeling that something is wrong, kindly consider these steps to pull those strings that bother you as they crop up so you can let them go and build your happiness. This way the subconscious ego becomes your servant:

1. When you experience feelings of impatience, worry, anxiety, dread …. those are like strings resurfacing to consciousness from the subconscious ego. Pause. Take some deep breathes, and become the conscious watcher of the thinker. Just notice your thinking and feelings without getting all involved and reacting to them.

2. Then go deeper to that level of consciousness where you are the unattached observer, just noticing the watcher and swirl of activities without harsh judgment.

3. Bring to the surface of your consciousness the opposite of what you may observe …… love instead of fear, courage in the face of scorn, gratitude when tempted by blame or regret, or understanding instead of hatred or desire.

This is a quick and easy method when challenged, yet conscious in the moment.

4. Go deeper still! Listen to the Silence within. And you will eventually begin to feel the Power of the Universe in that Silence, Universal Life Energy! Contact It consciously, feeling It move through your body and mind. It refines your consciousness even more to higher frequencies of calm, peace, compassion and gratitude.

5. Use your power of conscious discrimination …… pull the string of any disharmonious feelings or thoughts like anxiety, worry, guilt, shame or whatever it is, and reject it. Negate it. Throw it in a mental trashcan, and flood yourself with the Power of Universal Life Energy. That Power heals and harmonizes negative energies, clearing the way for more loving energies within you to surface.

6. Then leave it to the Great Principle, trusting and having faith it will be taken care of according to Universal Law.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“Whenever you feel the impulse to indulge some negative inner call, school yourself to bring out instead the exactly opposite and positive quality. In so doing, you lift the weight of wrong which seeks to drag that negative trait into expression, and by destroying its influence in your life you restore the proper balance within you.”

Eugene Fersen, The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being, page 156.

More to come, with the help of The Great Law!

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
Photo by rizknas on Pexels.com

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.”

Need to change someone else

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Practices, shaping your reality, Truisms
Photo PSLB

You ignore the health of your own sanity when you try to change someone else. And self-righteousness and every subconscious trait that supports that line of thinking can eat up the Light of your mind and emotions. You can end up changing yourself by strengthening the subconscious ego when you try to change someone else!

We all are in the same boat, so to speak. We all make mistakes and experience the subconscious ego. It stinks, but that’s the way it is. We can’t change anyone else. Everyone is incredibly strong and has a right to their behaviors even if it is harmful for them! Sad, but true.

One of the best ways to help anyone change for the better is to work on changing ourself. To consciously choose to realize subconscious traits we experience and choose to express enthusiasm, wisdom, sincerity and caring instead, in everything we do. To be FourSquare.

We can learn to forgive ourselves and others ….. that is realize that we may make mistakes and it causes problems, yet it is temporary and we can get up on the other side of it and look forward to new opportunities. And live in the moment.

So if we’re trying to help someone it is to everyone’s benefit to be Strong and most of all Loving ourselves. To be grateful and happy in the moment. To be centered within our Soul and the Truth of Spirit. To be FourSquare.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

Another uncomfortable pitfall of the seeker that can be subtle!

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.

” 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.’

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.
