The Power to Create – A Key to Happiness

 

Power to create

Russia can be considered a country of contrasts, or a least it is to me! There is the beauty of the people, their rich culture, past history accomplishments in art and its reconstruction after the terrible wars. Then there is the darkness, the suppression, the control and lost of freedom that they have suffered.

Yet, the greatest thing I have learned from the beautiful people there, and from people everywhere, is that creativity is a means to reconstruct happiness! Remember when you where a child and spent hours creating stories, crayon pictures, paintings, dirt roads for our matchbox cars, Lego buildings and even worlds! We were happy in our creativity!

In creativity  there is no contrast, rather blending of past and present, present and future, destruction and construction, even darkness and light. Because darkness though it may appear to be complete,  we see the Light when we turn towards it.

We turn towards Light and Love. The act of  being creative is beautiful because the mind of the creator is beautiful. And beauty is a quality of Love.

Mind and Love creates beautiful thoughts, ideas, emotions, behaviors and physical manifestations! And, through the Law of Attraction we create our reality – we create our happiness!

The Hots of Our Reality!

IMG_0409-0

Our ego wants to find love, but can go about it in wrong or harmful ways. It doesn’t really want to know why it’s that way.

Our appetites, our habits, our impulses and libido shape the way we are. They are our desires, and our desires and motivations shape our reality.

We are all looking for Love because mentally we are not conscious of True Love. But, we unconsciously look for love through desires of the ego. The ego can urge us to look for satisfaction or escape through excessive sex, food, recreational drugs and attention. The subconscious ego feels it is lacking which is based in fear. There is no Trust in Universal Love or Universal Abundance.

We can get comfortable with the urges and impulses of the ego and become addicted to over eating, alcohol, sex, infidelity and porn. Food is to sustain our body, an aspect of love and sex is a divine means of helping us realize Love. But, the ego uses urges and impulses to fulfill itself which can end up harming us.

Our great asset is consciousness or awareness. When we are conscious of our desires and motivations we can exercise our authentic power, the power of our soul and individuality. We can use our will to be motivated by love rather than fear.

When we are conscious of Love and motivated by it, then we shape our reality in it. Our thoughts, emotions and behaviors change and thus our reality changes. We live in the flow of life earnestly with enthusiasm, wisdom and caring. We are conscious of goodwill and act with kindness from the tenderness of our heart.

This changes the way we see the world and live our life. It changes our reality because our reality is shaped by the way we are.

“We think inharmoniously, and those thoughts of ours –unaware in most cases as we are that they will some day be visited upon us –act most destructively on us. The same is true of our negative emotions, such as hatred, jealousy, revenge, etc. Even if we feel these emotions toward other individuals, ultimately we are the ones who will be most harmed by indulging them, because of the law of Retribution.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being

Do We Purposefully Create Conflict in Our Life?

conflict

Television dramas and reality shows soar in popularity, especially when there is obvious conflict. We want the characters to bravely face problems and overcome them. We want happy endings and great achievements. But, why are we so attracted to conflict in stories and competitions? And, do we purposefully create conflict in our life?

The Entertainment

Sure, we like to be entertained with games and stories in the media and conflict makes good drama. We are kept in suspense and are emotionally invested with anticipation in the hope of them overcoming the challenges they face.  We like the adventure and are attracted to it because of our own drama.

Our Power of Creation

We create conflict and drama in our life because we are generally unconscious of falling prey to the subconscious ego, which in turn creates disharmony.

A simple example of this is when I was young and walking along and stumbled, hurting my toe and pride. I asked myself why did I physically experience pain when I wasn’t hurting anyone, just minding my own business. I was young and inexperienced, but I had a spiritual teacher to help me understand myself. It became quite clear that I had been careless. Mindlessly day dreaming rather than being in the moment and caring about how and where I stepped. 

Every fearful emotion we experience like being careless, like being afraid of being alone, of being ridiculed, or of missing out, manifests as a negative behavior. Carelessness can result in a stumble or other mistake. Impatience can result in anger, and anger can lead to brutality. Jealousy can manifest as lying and even as violence. Guilt can result in regret, despair and depression.

The Lessons of Life

At the time, that stumble didn’t seem very important, but it was a valuable experience. I learned to care about what I am doing in the moment, to be grateful and that even deeper understandings can unfold. Conflict can be very painful, yet we can learn some very valuable life lessons.

Like the aphorism, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink,” I am grateful for that experience, for my spiritual Friend and my Inner Teacher. Without being conscious we can miss life opportunities to help ourselves and the importance of love in every behavior that is rooted in the mind and our emotions which manifests in our behaviors. If those emotions are negative we create conflict in our life.

Life Opportunities

Bit by bit, step by step, we become freer, stronger and happier through the Law of Attraction and the Law of Cause and Effect.

When you look someone in the eyes and genuinely smile, it spreads. Being kind and considerate is contagious. Finding solutions to problems with actions, rather than just complaining, is putting out positive energy and benefits everyone. And, that positive energy eventually returns to us increased.

If we do experience conflict or face adversities in our life it can spur us to remember all those life lessons we learned and motivate us to behave with love leading us. That’s a very rewarding life adventure!

I appreciate You and invite you to share your thoughts too!

They Test our Patience!

what 6

We’ve all been there. Some people just have a knack for pissing us off! There will be occasions at work, at home, or while we are standing somewhere, when someone triggers an uneasy feeling in us. It can get our dander up!

Until we consciously address fearful emotions they will continue to plague us making us anxious or hard. They become habitual, part of our personality and disposition.

And, we can lose a sense of our True Self.

So What Can We Do?
It’s a matter of mental regulation – recognizing that every unpleasant emotion is a spiritual opportunity and synchronicity, where nothing happens by chance. It’s an opportunity we have set up for ourselves to release the burdens of the subconscious ego and align with our True Self and Love.

Most of us are unaware that the real source of our uneasiness is from fear that is rooted in the subconscious. It can grow there unnoticed only to resurface sooner or later as contentious emotions like anger, apprehension, worry, and hatred causing us bigger problems, even physical illness.

How to Start
When you start to feel some uneasiness, be fully conscious in the moment. Pause your thinking, take a deep breath, relax and quiet the mental chatter; be still. Consider making the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy (Cosmic Energy, chi, prana, Life Force) to help you relax and refocus.

Be the ‘watcher of the thinker’ from a higher consciousness. Impersonally observe your body language, facial expressions, thoughts and attitude, drawing them into you and feeling them fully without harsh judgment.

Be courageous and very sincere in your examination. Sincerity opens our heart and mind to the inspiration of our Higher Self.

Keep in mind that people who challenge us emotionally are also on a spiritual journey, seeking ways to release the burden of the subconscious. Think of them as facilitators of spiritual synchronicity.

A Deeper Understanding
The reasoning, conscious mind can go only so far in understanding. That’s when we reach for inspiration from our Higher Self by asking questions of ourselves. Questions like:

  • Why am I feeling impatient?
  • Why is it so important to me that I am attached to it?
  • Am I coming from a place of fear or love in my heart?

If we recognize we are tempted by fear, we can let it pass us by, release it and choose another path – Love.

We will still move in our thinking and emotions, therefore, we can further abet release of the temptation by: 

  1. Opening ourselves to a positive emotion like gratitude. A positive emotion negates a negative one.
  2. Manifesting a positive emotion physically in our behavior with a smile, a kind word or stillness.
  3. Changing our body language which can help us move into a positive emotion. Moving can disperse hormonal chemicals like adrenaline. It can take up to 90 seconds ——— to disperse negative energy.
  4. Make a sincere effort to see the Divine. When we see the Divine in another we are also invoking the power to see the Divine within ourselves!

A thought of Love and connection to Harmony destroys negative thoughts within us and we will feel a relief. This frees us from fixed ideas about attack, retaliation, correction and other fearful defenses. 

When we choose Love we are transforming our thought process in our everyday life from fear to Love, thereby, breaking addictive, fearful patterns.

Between souls

We believe in the illusions of the ego and it’s irresponsibilities, and therefore we experience anger, resentment and impatience, blaming others for our negative traits. Others can help us be aware of those negative traits that burden us.

“Love is constant, is known by loyalty, symbolized by Law.”

Eugene Fersen, The Teacher, page 83.

Living a Conscious Heart

Every moment we are conscious of some quality of love, it heals ourselves and the world. Living a Conscious Heart is being mentally conscious of the qualities our innate, unconditional Love and manifesting it in our life. While we are at work, doing errands, at home, anywhere. 

Though we may still have challenges, because we all do, the spiritual practice of living conscious heart helps us have the courage to face them head on with confidence and peace within ourselves.

We refine ourselves and all humanity. 

Enjoy the Moment

Consider these ways to be more conscious of living unconditional love in your life:

 1. Consciously think well of others

Find the beauty and see the good in others. Focus on their positive qualities rather than complaining or gossiping about them. And, if the opportunity arises express appreciation for them.

That does not mean that we are ignorant of negative traits or support them, rather we are encouraging their positive qualities and ours. 

This sounds so simple and it is, but it is something we don’t normally do! We forget to consciously appreciate others. 

Start with those closest to us first like your partners, children, parents. Widen the circle to include acquaintances, then those in your neighborhood, and others you many not even know as in passing. And wider still, to include all humanity and all earthlings.

2. Hope the best for others

Genuinely hope the best for others; that they find happiness, health, success and inner peace. Even those that we consider difficult!

We each have to make our own efforts for happiness and peace, and we can not make it happen for others even in small ways unless they agree to it. Yet, by sincerely hoping happiness for them we are opening ourselves to manifest opportunities for love and compassion for ourselves and the world.

Start with those closest to us first like our partners, children, parents then widen your awareness. 

3. Do acts of kindness

Compassion means love in action. So do acts of kindness. For those closest to you first, and to those you consider strangers. Offer your help; they can always refuse it!

Especially unexpected acts of kindness can warm a person’s heart. What may be considered small things like giving a person your place in line or offering a person a dollar for something like a tip at the airport when they suddenly find they are short in cash.

Acts of kindness propagate! I’ve seen it happen! Though I didn’t know the origin of it, I knew it is a pay it forward type of thing when I experienced it! 

4. Radiate the Light of Love & Universal Life Energy

What we all really want is to know Love, to be loved and to be loving, therefore be conscious of your goodwill for others. 

When you are standing in line, sitting in traffic, being served in a restaurant have the intent to consciously radiate love from the tenderness of your heart. Send those around you Universal Energy and Light of Love without using your own will as to how you think others should be. Rather feel loving and generously radiate Universal Life Energy from your heart impersonally.

Consider practicing an exercise like the Radiant Heart to send that Energy and Love to the world unconditionally. 

5. Be conscious of your motivations

Whenever you are tempted to jump into a negative emotions like anger, recognize it for what it is – a temporary temptation. We can ask ourselves a simply question: Am  I motivated by love or fear?  

Release the temptation and recognize your tender and loving heart within. Be grateful that you are conscious; it is your Higher Self helping you recognize that you are out of alignment with the Real Self and soul. Then act being motivated by tenderness, goodwill, kindness, consideration. 

6. Be sincere

Be honest and choose your words wisely, accurately reflecting your intent. Truth is sincere, and so is Love.

Sincerity is the key that opens the door to Love within us because of the power of emotion to change our life! That feeling of sincerity draws Love into our consciousness and heart, which will spread to others and the world.

 7. Express gratitude

When you are truly grateful you can feel the tenderness in your heart and this radiates out.

8. Be in the moment

Breathe deep, relax and be conscious! In this way we can consciously guard the entryway to our subconscious and reject negative energy from entering to grow into negative personality traits of the ego.

Consider meditating daily. We can connect with our Higher Self and receive inspirations and insights; most of all feel inner peace and joy because we are getting a glimpse of the Source within. 

9. Trust in the Great Principle

Remember that you are not alone. We are One with the Universe and the Strength, Intelligence, Law, Love, Spirit of IT, the Source. That remembrance helps us open to trust the abundance and protection in the Universal Laws of Justice and Love. The Great Principle is always working to help us unfold and align with Universal Harmony. We can have faith in IT.

10. Smile!

Through your genuine smile others receive the unconditional love that you feel in your heart. A smile that is motivated by love is a precious gift! And, genuine smiles are contagious!

When one of us becomes conscious of  that spark of Love and compassion within us it can ignite Love and compassion in someone else. Then they can pass it on too. Which is amazing!

And, even more amazing – when we are conscious of beauty and love in others we are becoming more conscious of the beauty and love within ourselves. And, so it circles.

We become a world of helping hands and hearts!

“THE LAW OF LOVE:  NO MATTER UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES ALWAYS MEET EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY WITH LOVE.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 224.

See No Evil

 

no evil 2

The Law of Polarity is what we humanly conceive of as opposites, light and dark, yes and no, yet that is coming from the perspective of the subconscious ego. The ego likes to think we cannot see Light without darkness. Polarity is a Universal Law of blending, synchronization and Harmonization. We can help harmonize our thinking by mentally negating it and saying to ourselves, “opposites is the way the subconscious thinks. I don’t accept that. It is a harmonious law.”

Your Fate and the Laws of Karma and Rhythm

Spiderwisp

Law of Cause and Effect (Karma) and Law of Rhythm

Thought → Emotion → Temptation → Behavior →  

Karmic Effect becomes a cause for another cycle → Thought → …

As we educate ourselves to understand the Laws of the Universe we can make conscious choices with our best interest in mind. It’s simple really – we empower ourselves through responsible behaviors or actions.

The choices that determine our fate start in our thinking, which triggers a corresponding emotion. And, since our emotions are empowered by the soul they make a great impact on our behaviors. Our behaviors are the effects of our choices of thinking and emotions, while our behaviors cause further effects physically since we are earthly beings. The frequency of energy in this entire process is what comes back to impact us as karma.

If we are angry (low-frequency energy) that energy will return to cause us harm and others.  If we make empowering choices that are balanced with higher frequency energy – containing enthusiasm, wisdom, sincerity and most of all Universal Love – then that energy will return to benefit us and others. 

And, we are habitual creators, repeating our thinking processes and behaviors. We condition ourselves as individuals and as groups, such as in families, friends, communities, nations, politics and religions. We repeat history so to speak and thus cyclic patterns emerge as experienced in the Law of Rhythm.

Yet, the Laws of Cause and Effect and Rhythm are to our benefit and we can make progress through them though it may not appear that way at the time. Experience teaches us, and we can understand, then live in harmony with these laws. 

The key is to BE CONSCIOUS with LOVE motivating us, if we aim for no harm to ourselves or others. This is turn harmonizes us all. We flow in harmony with both the Laws of Cause and Effect and Rhythm. (With the help of the Great Law more entries in the future will concern these laws.)

Through conscious awareness we can evolve ourselves to remember the LOVE we are. 

We are the masters of our own fate.

“We must change our attitude of mind if we want to produce something better – the change must come from within us. Then the Law of Retribution will become the Law of Reward.”

Eugene Fersen, Advanced Teachings of Science of Being, Volume II, page 200.

Discrimination is a Good Thing!

If we are politically correct we are not supposed to discriminate. Even using that word raises eyebrows. Discrimination is considered a bad thing. But, is that true?

Discrimination

We use our power of discrimination to distinguish between right and wrong, beautiful and ugly, desirable and undesirable, and everything in between.

With discrimination we make distinctions, choices, judgment calls.

Our discrimination and choices determine our future – our fate, because we build our future from our choices in the present moment. Therefore, our discrimination is important for our well-being. 

Being a slave

It’s when we are unconscious of our power of discrimination that we fall into superstitions, blind beliefs, subconscious habits, and prejudices. We don’t think about it, but just do it! We’re not really making choices at all! We’re just being a slave to unconscious habits, conditioning and blind beliefs!

Plus, we flock together our prejudices and thinking, gather with friends and others that think the same way we do, which reinforces our habitual patterns. We condition ourselves.

Discrimination can reward us!

We have to be brave to consciously discriminate because we are accepting responsibility for our choices. But, we also reap the rewards.

We liberate ourselves from the whim of fear.

Important Fact

Good day beautiful Souls!

Consider this thought for the day:

Joy's Flower

“On our life paths we very often stumble, we may even fall, yet we should never worry about our stumbling or our falling. We should always bear in mind that it does not matter so much that we have fallen over an obstacle. The important fact is that we are on the other side of the obstacle, that we have advanced in spite of it.”  

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 222.
