The Future is Present

Jungle Fern on Leaf refined

Clocks and calendars are a human, mental invention we created to help us organize for the future and comprehend how much time has past. In some other realms beyond our three dimensional one time does not exist as we humanly perceive it.

Through analogy we can get a hint of that even in our present consciousness – because the past, particularly the immediate past, can have a great impact on the present and the immediate future, especially when we bring the past with us mentally. 

This in turn, emphasizes the importance of the present moment and our conscious awareness of it. Dwelling on the past can keep us in habitual patterns of reliving past experiences  freezing our self-imagine, limiting us and keeping us circling in associated emotions. Or, we can worry about the future, anxious and afraid that things may happen similar to what may have occurred before. Our negative emotions draw more negative energy to us contributing to our current condition and we may carry that around with us, creating negative conditions in our future. 

It’s our opportunity to be mindful and in the moment, synchronizing body and mind. We have the chance to mentally release the negative of the ego and be conscious of and grateful for all the positive in our life. An opportunity to manifest sincerity, kindness, goodwill and love. Not only creating our happiness now because we are conscious of the positive energy and emotions in our life, but also because we carry it with us into what we call our future.

As we raise our consciousness by being mindful and in the moment, we awaken to more beauty and happiness. And, through the Law of Cause and Effect we build our future condition too! 

Every moment is loaded with spiritual potential that expands into our future and into higher realms that are meant for us!

“It is a very important thing that we should not keep Love unmanifested, but should at every opportunity disclose it, show it forth, manifest it, be it in a word, in a smile, in a look or in a handshake.”

Fractal Nature of our World

Chaotic water swills in the present, but what effect will it have?
How far will the effects reach?
How does it affect You now?


Sometimes our lives can be a bit chaotic! Maybe a bit more than we would like to admit. And, though we may not know the deep reason for the chaos, there is some rhyme and reason to it. 

Karma of the beating of a butterfly’s wings

Chaos is natural element in nature like air turbulence, the weather, and even our mental states. It’s like the beating of a butterfly’s wings.Don't blame me!

The butterfly wings beat the air and the effects may be felt as a hurricane later somewhere across the world. We don’t know if that’s true, but the butterfly wings beats definitely cause a real effect.

The same is true of every thought we have, every emotion, every behavior. We stir things up, creating chaos.

The nature of chaos is complex, yet through some understanding we can better prepare ourselves in the moment. Even though time appears to be linear, our life is nonlinear. The present moment is interconnected to the past and future. Still our body is only in the present moment, so synchronizing mind with body consciously sets us up for opportunities to create a harmonious and happy life. By being conscious in the moment we can avoid those elements that may be detrimental to our well-being and attract those that are beneficial. 

 It’s full of surprises and unexpected situations. 

The beauty of an unexpected life

Yet, the idea of the unexpected in our life can be beautiful and even help us organize our life. It can help simplify our life.

Knowing that life is fractal and can be chaotic gives us some insights, and opens a door to deeper understanding with compassion for ourselves. We may not consciously know the effects of what we are doing this very moment. Yet, when we do the right thing, that is we are living our authentic power with intelligence, truth and love, then we will draw a ‘like’ effect because of the Universal Law of Cause and Effect and Law of Attraction which are uncompromising. The effects can be much more far reaching than we may ever know.

Far reaching effects of pay it forward

What we may consider an inconsequential thought or behavior may lead to major effect. It’s a pay it forward type of thing. What we do now, this very moment, may have far reaching effects around the world sooner or later. We are all connected to each other and to the Universal Laws that work in-conjunction. What we think this very moment may nudge someone else to open their heart or mind, and it spreads to those around them, then to their community and eventually it may spread around the world. That’s power! 

So our opportunity as a soul is to BE. To BE and radiate in our thoughts, feelings and behaviors – enthusiasm, intelligence, truth and most of all Love. This is our authentic power as a soul and it is that much more powerful because of being one with All Spirit. 

We have the greatest asset we can ever have – the help of the Great Principle. We can Trust that when we do the right thing in this moment, the most wise and tender hearted, then the Universal Laws work out the effect harmoniously! 

Teachings of the fractal nature of our world

And if there is anything that chaos teaches us it is – to expect the unexpected! It teaches us to live in the moment fully and to be mindful. To be grateful for now. To be grateful that we don’t know what’s next, otherwise there would be nothing to look forward to! There would be no adventure.

Life is an adventure. Life is fractal. It’s simple! There is some rhyme and reason even in chaos.

Consider this quote to reflect upon:

“The Great Principle is the One Point. There is nothing more simple than a point. At the same time the Great Principle is a Sphere. There is nothing more perfect, complete, and at the same time more simple than a sphere. It is perfection in absolute simplicity.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 22. 

 

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.”

2015 New Year and Numerology

To You and Your Family!

2015 !

The ever-present now is the greatest influence in our life because in essence it is the timeless conscious nature of I am. Though we are governed by eternal Universal Laws, as earthlings we have conditioned ourselves to be swayed by human dictates, including the human calendar. According to the Gregorian calendar, this is the year 2015. It has a particular frequency which can give an indication of the character and potential of this year’s cyclical pattern.

 2+0+1+5 = 8

 After the introspective energy of the past number 7 year, this year’s number 8 energy can come on strong in the worldly powers that be – materialistically!

This year has a frequency of eight which is further movement into the latter part of a 9 year cycle. We planted the seeds of ideas, worked on them and let them grow, and are ready to reap the harvest of the past several years. At last, it is a year for advancement and abundance in business, finances and authority!

It is wise to be cautious, since 8 is a dualistic and rhythmic number. The Law of Karma, or Cause and Effect, is a strong process in 8’s rhythmic nature. Though it can be a very successful year financially, it could also mean hiccups or even reversals if we are not focused on a higher purpose in our material pursuits. It could also mean further realization of the loss of personal privacy due to misuse of technological advancements.

True material wealth and prosperity is achieved with the perspective of power, abundance and money as divine energies that are meant for humanity’s freedom and happiness, including Yours. And this could be the year for it! Any frustrations or confrontations are a reminder that troubles are of our own making!

On the global scale there may be calls for fighting and war this year, yet there are also forces for peace and compromise, or at least restraint, because there is some realization that prosperity and peace is best achieved through goodwill and cooperation with others. Though there is still anger and desire for violence, this is a time to come face to face with the idea that any abuse or misuse we see in others is also within our self!

It’s a time to heal old wounds within families and lay old grievances aside. For those who listen to their intuition and appreciate their inner abundance and power in the present moment, success will follow. This energy will radiate out and affect all humanity.

The spiritual perspective of eight’s dual nature is that it represents Spirit and Matter, The Unmanifest and Manifest. They are the same divine qualities in different forms. The two circles of 8 represent our capacity to fully return to the realization of being Divine and One with the Eternal on the spiritual plane and the earthly plane. Or, the two squares on top of each other are as in the FourSquare qualities of Man: strength, intelligence, honesty, sincere consideration and love. This means that man’s authority, leadership and administration on earth is achieved by expressing our Divine qualities.

Relying more on our intuition can help us build a foundation for peace based on faith and trust in the Eternal. This year gives us a real opportunity to listen to higher guidance and realize compassion and consideration for others. We can achieve much this year if we band together with peace in our hearts, rather than being dominated by civilization’s subconscious tyranny in politics, religion and social pride.

In this number 8 energy we are to live our earthly life with spiritual ideals!

2015 Count Your Blessings

May you find Light, Love and Peace this year and all the years to come!

What Not to Do, Part 1

 

Ways of the World

There are plenty of websites and blogs that have lists of what not to do, such as ‘what not to do on your online dating profile’ and ‘what not to do in an interview’. Often times they can be very humorous while being true.

Yet, there are some very practical things to consider when it comes to what not to do when you want to improve your life and enlighten your spiritual journey.

MEANS OF THE MIND
The subconscious doesn’t like to be told what not to do. That word ‘not’ or ‘n’t’ seems to disappear from our attention when used in a sentence, so consider reading the first sentence in this paragraph again! That’s the first important thing to remember about what not to do.

When you say to someone, especially a child, “don’t be afraid,” it’s like saying to the ego “be afraid, be very afraid!” Or, “don’t cry,” it’s like you are saying, “I understand why you are crying.” When you say, “don’t tell me what to do!” The subconscious of the person you’re speaking to tends to hear “tell me what to do,” and it’s almost irresistible for them not to tell you what to do!

When you say to yourself, “don’t forget,” the subconscious records the predominate word – forget. If you want to remember, say to yourself, “remember,” and mentally swallow it – you are programing the subconscious.

Be mindful and consciously choose the appropriate word as a directive to the subconscious since it is very good at recording thoughts and growing them, but not very good at recognizing the word ‘not’.

A very practical what not to do is try to change someone else. You can’t.

Everyone is incredibly strong. And, if you do try to change someone else you end up changing yourself! You ignore the health of your own sanity as self-righteousness and every subconscious trait that supports that line of thinking eats up the Light of your mind and emotions!

Everyone has a right to their thinking, even if it is harmful for them! Sad, but true. We can try to help them, but we can not change them. One of the best ways to help them is to work on changing our self for the better because it rubs off on those around us.

SPIRIT OF LOVE
Our great asset is our Higher Self, our Superconscious that speaks to us through intuition and inspiration which helps us know what not to do and what to do. And, we have the power of discrimination.

Knowledge is a means and power to help us advance and better our life, and along with soul sourced discrimination it can help us do that in universal balance.

With Light and Love, Portia SLB


We’ll share more things not to do that complicate your life in the next 2 upcoming posts with the help of the Great Law.

Until next time consider this quote to reflect upon:

“The subconsciousness always imposes on consciousness. It always wants us to do something. The Superconsciousness always wants to be asked. When we ask we should always believe that we will receive. The Eternal must answer when asked.”

Eugene Fersen, Pearls of Wisdom, Volume I, p. 313.

Releasing False Beliefs about Yourself, Part 4

 

grasp the significance 3

If you feel aggravated while interacting with someone then a low-frequency ego trait was most likely activated. Yet, that uneasiness can be your great asset! 

Your emotions can lead you to realize the Wisdom and authentic Power of your Soul. When you become conscious of being tempted by a negative emotion or behavior it inferably is your Superconsciousness gently letting you know something is not in harmony with your soul! 

First things first!
When I feel some uneasiness during an interaction with someone, I use the FourSquare, as discussed in Part 3, to help me pinpoint the reason and name the trait or thought that was not in harmony with the qualities of my soul.

Once I consciously realize that I was tempted to engage in a harmful trait that is based in fear, I then will myself to relax mentally. This is important so I can focus on going further in my attitude adjustment! I then mentally step away from that adverse criticism and let it go. I let it pass me by. I turn it away; I throw it away; I blow it away! It is such a liberating and empowering feeling!

The next step is life changing – I mentally look up within to connect with a Higher Power – Universal Life Energy to help further harmonize and inspire me. I realize and make a declaration of Truth to align with love instead of fear with a statement like:

Header_with_Exercises_new“I am One with Universal Love and Universal Life Energy. I am conscious of being loving and being loved Now. I feel IT.”

This brings my awareness and gratitude into the moment before speaking or acting. I manifest that attitude adjustment in some physical manner. It may be something very simple, like a smile to a stranger or sincere listening and to what the other person is saying. It will be a choice that is motivated by love rather than fear.

You’ll know a change has taken place within yourself and so will the other person if they acknowledge it or not.

Temptations of the Ego
We experience detrimental emotions and traits because of choices we made in the past and choices we make now. Through the law of karma, the Law of Cause and Effect, we unconsciously create harmful conditions that become habitual by frequently engaging in thoughts of worry, impatience, anger, procrastination, or carelessness! 

The subconscious ego aims to dominate us with these temptations, and thus we come to believe the illusionary personality traits we engage in and claim them as our own. You may come to think that is who you are, including that you are a terrible person at times, not good enough, not lovable or loving. You are not your thoughts! 

Your Soul Mind Connection
You may be tempted by fear-based emotions, yet that feeling of something not being right is your Higher Self awakening you consciously to the illusion of the insecure ego. Your Higher Self or Superconscious is your connection to Universal Mind. You are tapping into Divine Mind when you listen to your intuition. Be grateful!

You have the Eternal supporting You and helping You unconditionally! Take the opportunity to release subconscious traits in the moment and choose to align with Love instead. In this way you will  bring out the qualities of your Soul in your life and empower yourself to attract more conditions for your happiness, and indeed the world!

You will come to know that You are a beautiful Soul and so very good at heart.

With Light and Love, Portia SLB
