A State of Mind
“We should try to develop the love of Beauty, which is at the foundation of our being.” Eugene Fersen
Even a novice photographer can capture the scenic beauty and power of Alaska on an iPad. And, there is more to it than meets the eye!
Summer doesn’t last long in Alaska, but it is beautiful, green with mild weather and swollen rivers and lakes from melting snow.
The states of water can be used to symbolize the states of mind.
Clear liquid water is in a state of fluidity and active movement, representing consciousness aware in the present moment.
Mind in the present moment is clear, calm and receptive. It better reflects our True, beautiful individual character and its unlimited quality, like the open sky.
However, if our mind is muddied and rippled by negative attitudes or harmful desires it symbolizes a troubled personality and life.
If mind is fixed, stubborn, opinionated without hope of change it is like ice, frozen like hell.
Water in a gaseous state represents the Higher, True Self. Pure Mind, a perfect complement to Divine Love. Our natural state. Beautiful.
With Light and Love, Portia SLB

Witness the End of guilt
We sometimes feel very guilty and it hurts our heart! No matter how hard we try it’s usually difficult to forget about because it circles and returns.
But we can witness the end of guilt within us.
The Truth of It
The egotistic, human mind is attracted to guilt! Many of us believe we should feel guilty because we blame our self. But guilt, blame, shame are conditioned expectations programmed in the subconscious by long standing beliefs.
We are programmed to expect guilt and choose guilt over forgiveness and release. Even when we blame someone else, it returns to us like a boomerang and it attracts more blame and feelings of guilt.
The ego thrives on guilt, using guilty thoughts and emotions to ensure its survival. Survival at all costs, even at the cost of our happiness, health and life.
However, guilt is a belief of the ego and just by taking a step towards truth, acknowledging that guilt is a belief, it begins to leave us.
Guilt is not Truth or else it would be never ending and there would be no happiness. Truth begins to free us of the burden of guilt.
Truth is eternal. The Truth is we are made of Love…It holds us together, our cells, mind and emotions. Love within us is in a state of harmony and doesn’t even see guilt because it is not a loving quality. Guilt is an illusion and doesn’t exist in Love.
Love does see Truth and attracted to Truth, but not guilt. Love has no guilt in it, but fear does. And fear is attracted to guilt, but not Truth. Fear has no love in it.
The ego is attracted to guilt. It urges us, demands us, expects us to choose guilt because of belief in it, blame and fear.
You can choose to release any temptation of guilt, by seeing the truth of what guilt is, by letting it go, releasing it to the Light of Truth and Love. Guilt is of the past. The past is gone, now is all there is.
But if you do ever feel guilt rise up into your consciousness
Feel the sensations of guilt in the body, usually as twisting in the stomach area. Just feel without judgmental analysis. Those sensations of guilt will eventually run out of your body. The feeling served a purpose in helping you become conscious of something to release for your own benefit and the betterment of all. Thus you can release guilt and blame and focus instead on gratitude, Inner strength, intelligence, spiritual integrity and love.
Love Truth and you Love yourself, for You are the Lightbearer of Strength, Wisdom, Truth and Love. And you are free and wise to choose Peace and happiness rather than deserving of guilt.
You can witness the end of guilt. And be the witness of the Power and Love that You are.

“Our conscious self must learn the lessons of Love. Our Higher Self does not need to learn it. Our subconsciousness all the time emanates hatred into our consciousness. It has no Love in it.”

This is amazing to realize! 4 essentials to reestablish Harmony in your life!
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 and naive, 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 avoid disharmony. 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 Power of the Universe and Great Principle to help you.
#2. Use your intelligence wisely.
Try to understand the way the human mind, the ego works. It is the reason for so called “disharmony.” And we can learn to rise above it.
And Meditation can help you align with your Higher Self, that part of you that is always happy and harmonious.
Slowly, slowly as your silent quest for answers deepens so does your understanding. And you rise consciously!
#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
Eugene Fersen, Advanced Teachings in Science of Being, Volume I, pages 93- 94.“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.”
This and all entries are for inspiration and encouragement to persevere on our spiritual journey. And are shared with educational and humanitarian purposes. Yet each of us are responsible for our choices and only you can build to your own Harmony and Spirit.
It sucks optimism right out!
Have You experienced negative personality traits like resentment, like anger, like impatience that have surfaced repeatedly?
Especially since I’m aware of them surfacing repeatedly from this ego, it sucks optimism right out of me. I go down emotionally, feeling guilty and blaming myself, making everything feel worse!
And even though we go down. We can go down fighting for harmony! I quickly focus on gratitude in silence, especially for the conscious self-assessment and spiritual insights ….. for the opportunity to act in the moment ….. and for the willingness to eliminate flaws!
Relax, breathe deeply and make a silent connection with Universal Life Energy. My attitude and consciousness are immediately lifted.
With further observation, we can understand that in discovering our own qualities and flaws that everyone else experiences their own qualities and flaws too, if they are conscious of them or not. And by rising our own consciousness it helps all others to rise in consciousness too.
And I am grateful.
No favors
The ego buries all experiences, thoughts, and emotions in the subconsciousness to grow unnoticed and clings to them even if they are real downers and don’t do us any favors. We may experience negative personality traits, nightmares, flashbacks, or intruding memories. And bodily symptoms can manifest as illnesses.
We should fight for Harmony!
We have every reason to release the past. And we have unlimited opportunities to construct our happiness in the present.
There’s Hope for Us
Kindly consider looking up within and embrace understanding and compassion for others and yourself, knowing that we all are on our spiritual journey. And that everyone else experiences Love, compassion, understanding, and optimism in their hearts too if they are conscious of it or not.
As we rise in consciousness we release negative egotistic traits like doubt, fear and blame.
And as we rise we naturally radiate Gratitude, Compassion and Love, helping others and ourselves.

“Each time we hurt someone we lower our rate of vibration. If others hurt us, we should say it is too bad they do not know any better. Human love is a ladder to step into higher vibrations.”

Todays’s consideration: ‘Constructive criticism’?
Consider that when we criticize we are judging from fear … plus the ego wants to be in control. We can be harsh. And we can be even harsher when we self criticize.
We may feel that self criticism is justified because it can help us improve ourselves. And that others are going to criticize us anyway, so why not jump the gun? We secretly feel that we are not good enough to fit in or be loved?
We all do it; we all criticize! Yet we are in a process of realizing that none of us are perfect and we all have our habits ….. we all have been programmed to adhere to established patterns of behaviors.
But….. We can pause and consider the temptation to criticize, then listen to our Inner Voice, our Higher Self, to guide us.
Criticism is directed by fear and can result in anxiety, guilt, and even self-hatred. Such temptation is just a temporary distraction from Self Love and compassion for all of us. And we can realize this.
To realize that we all are tempted to criticize, then pause and let it pass, is the beginning of having compassion for ourselves. And ….. that compassion can raise our level of consciousness to Acceptance, Understanding and unconditional Love for ourselves, for others and all Beings.
And certainly increases our happiness!

“Only Truth will set us Free. Lies are bonds woven from all kinds of evil elements.”
Eugene Fersen, Aphorisms of The Lightbearer, page 127.
Raging for ages and lifting the world
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
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
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
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.

Need to change someone else
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.
