Today’s consideration: Unintended spiritual progress?

Apparently we have to be willing to progress spiritually. It’s something we choose or intend. And we could have made that choice for Truth so long ago that the ego has conveniently forgotten that choice.

We always have the freedom to stay and circle in many low levels of consciousness, like guilt, depression, anger and hatred, consciously or unconsciously.

However, with spiritual intent and commitment to spiritual discipline the self can translate enlightening perceptions into “aha moments,” or gaps in which we can spiritually progress. A Light comes on in a small gap as we interpret meanings. I’ve found it’s more than “an aha moment,” rather it’s a knowing and state of being. We shift from ego to Conscious Truth. We are willing to be aware of something greater and there is possibility of realizing more harmonious states of consciousness.

It’s also a matter of being brave enough to progress. Some of us don’t want to change. We’re used to and familiar with where we are. We know what to expect and may fear the unfamiliar.

We may also feel like we don’t deserve to be happier, freer or stronger. So we do not intend to progress. And the Great Principle gives us the freedom to choose.

But our intent to progress along with understandings of how the ego functions facilitates discernment and release of negativity. Spiritual Wisdom helps ease understandings when we allow it.

What else can we do? We can contact Universal life energy, opening ourselves to the inflow of the qualities of The Great All, lighting up and activating those very same qualities already within us.

There are two easy exercises in the wisdom of Science of Being: The Mental Contact and the Star exercise. They are Universal contacts with Source!

You that are reading this entry are apparently willing to spiritually progress by virtue of sincere willingness to comprehend it. And I thank you for that. We help each other.

Had any “aha moments?”

A State of Mind

 A State of Mind

We should try to develop the love of Beauty, which is at the foundation of our being.”  Eugene Fersen

It’s amazing how the beauty and power of Alaska can be captured on an iPad! Yet, it is also amazing that there is so much beauty in this world to enjoy. It out weights the dross. And, everything, everything – says something about our earthly condition. It speaks to us in deep and profound ways and all we have to do is be conscious and aware of it.

The Law of Analogy is such a powerful law to help us understand ourselves and of great benefit for those on a conscious spiritual journey. The law Itself is beautiful.

Glacier MeltThe different states of water can be used to symbolize the different states of mind. The liquid state is like the lively, discriminating consciousness, while the frozen state is like the fixed ideas, beliefs and habitual behavioral patterns of subconsciousness.

The subconscious freezes and imprisons the beauty and Love of Mind, dominating our emotions and behaviors with traits like irritability, worry, guilt or greed if we let it. 

Being frozen is hell for us, because the Great Law says Life is constant vibration, change and gradual evolution.

Just like the way the sun can melt a 10,000 year old glacier in Glacier National Park so can unconditional Love of Universal Life Energy melt and change the frozen misconceptions of the subconscious. 

We may think we don’t like change, but everything else about us says that we do. That’s an analogy that can help us be courageous in challenging situations!

Finding Beauty – Things Change

Things Change

White clouds, daydreams dance across the sky,
White flowers, bees wings, buzz does day glorify.
Ego, cries and does surmise change is not our thing,
Soul, brave and life’s map does aviate like a butterfly.

We are in a state of constant change physically, mentally and emotionally!

We may think we don’t like change, but everything about our inner nature says we do!

A positive thought about change – that it is a natural process of life, will help us face uncertainty or unexpected changes. A positive attitude negates a bit of negative energy that we may carry in the subconscious, putting us in a more embracing attitude. 

In the hope that You find Love close at hand, Portia SLB


“Science should discover the things which Nature has in store, which are almost limitless. The more we remain in tune with Nature, the more Nature reveals Itself.”
