The Spiritual Warrior

We have to fight and be a spiritual warrior …. to lift ourselves up emotionally. and consciously. Step by step we can begin to feel better by recognizing opportunities in challenges and accompanying emotions. 

From anxiety and fear we can build a bridge to higher levels by realizing we have felt the same way before and we have overcome it ….. that it doesn’t have to be overcome in one moment since there is always enough time ….. that it feels good to recognize what holds us back and that recognition empowers us to see other possibilities …. and we have within us the courage to look ahead with hope. 

Courage, hope and reason are higher levels of consciously than anxiety and fear. With the attitude of courage we can experience anxiety and fear as catalysis for higher levels of consciousness.

Blocks

We all want success and happiness. But, we have been programmed in this lifetime and many more ….. how to think, feel and behave in challenging situations by our families, communities, religions, and society as a whole …… that are not always helpful. We can tend to focus on what we are missing …. and this can keep us boxed in a lacking attitude, blocking from what we want. 

Clearing the way

By being in the moment with uplifting attitudes we attract beneficial energies and possibilities. We are actually on the cutting edge of constructing our future. You may view it as building in the Law of Cause and Effect or the Law of Attraction. 

Either way you view it ….. it comes to the same Universal Law – LIFE, MIND, TRUTH, LOVE, SPIRIT IS ALL IN ALL. which is aligning with your True Self. And this is our destiny.

In Light and With Light, PortiaSLB

” The Great Principle, the Absolute, is all Life, all Mind, all Truth, all Love, all Spirit; all there is, is in the Great All, and if we apply that Law, the Law of Life, of Mind, of Truth and of Love, to all problems of our daily life, we work out, without noticing it, all the perfection we can ever aspire to, we build up the Pyramid of our own life and reach the Point of Spirit, and we do not notice how it happens, because it is the Great Principle Itself Who is working to that end through us. It is Its work as much as ours. All we have to do is to be conscious, open channels for that.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, pages 178-9.

We attract….

Just relax and trust the Great Law that things always work out for you. That attitude of Trust relaxes the mind and will allow answers.

The Law is above all Loving ….. so even when we initially may be in a wanting, desiring mode, when we relax and Trust that things will work out, then we allow ourselves to consciously hear intuition ….. we attract …. intuition and inspiration from our Higher Self, which is connected to Universal Mind.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

Tought for the day

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness, Liberating Your Soul, Practices

Our true character is revealed when things are challenging! Any negative that surfaces from within reveals what was latent ….. and this gives us an opportunity for self awareness and growth.

The ego gets all involved in other people and projects onto others. As soon as we are honest about our defects, rather than repressing, denying or projecting them, we are less defensive and more self-accepting. We are more inclined to release narcissistic ego traits like blame, guilt and pridefulness.

We have freedom of choice and we can choose Harmony. And if we can’t seem to jump right to harmony from disharmony and blame, then we can begin by taking a deep breath and relaxing. We’ve already begun to release disharmonious emotions and thoughts. In that release we can focus on feeling something better, lighter. And this is when focus on the FourSquare is so beneficial …… being optimistic, considerate, sincere, and loving.

When we are sincere we become more self-aware. And we begin to experience unconditional Love for ourselves and others.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“We must fight outside disharmony and counteract it with inside Harmony. There is nothing more helpful than to be sincere. Insincerity is one of the greatest obstacles to coming in touch with Harmony. The world today has reached a most insincere condition. We can to some extent eliminate the troubles from ourselves. Try to synchronize as much as possible with the good things. There is nothing more important than enlightenment. More light means more joy and more Harmony, more life.”

Today’s consideration

Merely being conscious of our freedom of individual choices can be very uplifting and freeing.

Attitudes like those listed above are very simple choices that supports our spiritual process. It’s not just about making our life more pleasant and enjoyable, but it’s also …… about moving out of the compulsive ego that imprisons us in limiting and unhappy fallout.

Our choices determine consequences and shapes our reality.

With FourSquare choices that are Enthusiastic, Intelligent, True and Loving, we form a positive armor and eliminate the pain of mistakes.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“The wiser we become, the more harmonious we become, and the more useful we are to ourselves and to others. Wisdom governs justice and includes Love. Wise people are fundamentally kind people. Wisdom never forgets anything, but never resents anything.”

The world says ‘don’t discriminate,’ your Inner Courage says, ‘always discriminate’

Discrimination reflects both the human mind and the human spirit! The human mind usually views discrimination according to the current social mania. Currently the general concept of discrimination is based in fear and hatred. It feeds more of the same energies in society, causing protests, self-righteous stubbornness, anger and hatred.

Yet, the foremost objective of discrimination that comes into evidence is the development of love within us.

Polarized discrimination

There is division in the human mind. It sees right and wrong, yes and no, duality. It divides us from Harmony and our own Soul! And it divides us from each other, thus mental and emotional judgments against groups, etc.

Yet, the human spirit also discriminates ….. with distinction. Our Spirit, our own Real Self, always discriminates with distinction to manifest all our wonderful, soulful qualities ….. of Enthusiasm, Wisdom, Truth and Love.

The greater objective of discrimination is ……

To elevate the human mind to be conscious of our Unity ….. with Spirit ….. with Harmony. To be conscious of – All Life, Intelligence, Law and Love ….. And to Manifest ….. to Be …… in the ever present moment these qualities …… with every thought, every attitude, and every act of ours.

Discrimination with fear and hatred imprisons these qualities. But we will eventually seek relief from the pain of such a mistake. Yet, we need not suffer ….. it’s up to us to beneficially discriminate.

To enhance beneficial discrimination …..

  • Be Courageous and Observe yourself in a detached mental awareness ….. the good, the bad, and the ugly. Courage can empower You ….. to observe without getting involved in the emotions.
  • Choose to release fearful, egotistic thoughts and behaviors, keeping in mind that there are no secrets.

Consider using the practice of eliminating fearful thoughts, temptations and emotions outlined in the link just below whenever you feel negative energy rise within you.

Reaching Soul Vibrations – Lesson 23

  • Courageously accepting responsibility for yourself, for your own path in life, is Willingness that empowers You to transcend reason and embrace Love. It adds to your Strength and can help attract you to ….. Forgiveness, Understanding, and Love ….. opening you to higher levels of consciousness!

“WE SHOULD ALWAYS TRY TO FEEL LOVING TO OUR FELLOW MEN, TO EXPRESS OUR LOVE-NATURE EVERY INSTANT AS MUCH AS WE CAN.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being
  • Be grateful for the opportunities in Life and ….. Give ……the whole of your physical, mental and emotional qualities – All Life, Intelligence, Truth and Love.

In this way you construct Strength, Freedom and Happiness in your Earthly Career. You create conditions for your happiness and for others.

In the hope You always FourSquare discriminate and find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

A finite moment leads to the Infinite… a paradox

by Circlelightbearer, posted in shaping your reality

By being in the moment and accepting the moment experience as it is in the present…..then we expand into the infinite Now. It seems a paradox.

Try an experiment. Focus on one thing, one moment at a time and consciously create happiness by thinking, intending, feeling those things you truly want.

For me it may be to be strong in health when I’m feeling weak. It may be feeling open and accepting when tempted to feel angry or impatient. I experience it and can release it, knowing it isn’t the Real Self and doesn’t benefit anyone. Then I can embrace uplifting feelings.

It may be feeling Loving towards all. To feel the warmth and tenderness in the heart that radiates to others and to the world. And this is being a conscious channel of Source. You expand from that emotion physically and mentally. Plus, you attract the same thing as you create in the moment with your thoughts, intentions and emotions.

The longer you hold your focus on uplifting emotions and realizations you expand into Infinite Consciousness. And by observing yourself in this state, you are creating a more stable awareness of your Inner Being.

Try the finite section experiment (taking things one at a time/bit by bit) and experience for yourself the freedom it brings … or perhaps you have already?

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“‘Like attract like’ is a Natural Law, functioning alike through the Physical, Mental and Emotional channels of the individual.”

DANCE ON WATER

Your reflection is rippled and distorted in the human mind,                                                     yet your Higher Self knows
You dance on water, You float on air!


You are a gentle soul that unfolds petal,                                                                                       by 1,000 petals
so that your tender heart is disclosed.


You are a friend, then foe, then Friend exposed.
You are a jewel in the silence,
a Light like the sun.

You are ‘I am’ and part of ‘I AM ONE.’

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“The Past cannot be changed; we have to take it as it is. But our Future is completely in our hands, and, if we start the right causes, should never occasion us any worry, as it will take care of itself because of the Law of Cause and Effect.”

Inner art

Creativity is a spiritual process that as humans we sometimes overlook and underrate because we are not normally aware that we are constantly creating. We don’t see ourselves as artists …… or creators. Yet, we are constantly creating.

Creative Process

Art is the invisible within …… and the expressions of art are the manifestations. Art is the Power and Inner Being behind the creative process …….behind the manifestation of creation of works of art, rather than the works of art themselves. And that creative process is part of our life everyday.

It is the waking up and beginning your daily life of thoughts, motivations, and behaviors. You are creating within every moment of your day. Actually it is more accurate to say we are co-creators because …… there is nothing we can do without the Source, Our Father, the Eternal.

You are making choices and creating your reality …… with your thoughts, attitudes and behaviors. And this is art ….. the creative process.

Your attitudes and emotions motivate your thoughts ….. and you behave, take actions accordingly. Your actions create an effect. Everything is connected in mind, past memories and emotions, possible futures and most importantly ….. what is happening right now.

The Conscious Artist

A person conscious of being a creative artist …… loves the process of creating ….. and aware of what motives them in the present moment. Now some may call this spiritual awareness or even religious devotion ….. and it is in a way, because …… we are becoming conscious of the Divine within ourselves.

When we toast a piece of bread, paste a picture in a memory book or call a friend ….. we are being the artist …… because we are in the creative process. And we can choose to be conscious of it ….. love it ….. and create beauty because of love within ….. or slide along unconscious of our motivations or what, how we are creating.

We often create unconsciously with subconscious traits rooted in fear and ignorance, like anxiety, desire and pride. And we can be totally unaware of how such emotions motivate our thoughts and behaviors ….. and we end up creating problems/challenges for ourselves.

This inner creative quality is something to cherish and nourish

We usually dismiss and forget our creative process all together in our every day life. Yet, when we become conscious of being motivated by love and other qualities of love like ….. hope, appreciation, consideration, and compassion ….. then we are in the process of creating reality with these motivations …… and we attract more of the same …..

Then art is not a thing of beauty ….. art is beauty. Art is the inner creative cause within you …… the honoring of love and beauty. In this respect, art and our spiritual journey are one and the same.

In the hope You find your Inner Artist, PortiaSLB

Your Fate – Laws of Karma and Rhythm

by Circlelightbearer, posted in The Universal Laws

Spiderwisp

Karma and the Law of Rhythm

Thought → Emotion → Temptation → Behavior →  

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

These are the cycles, the rhythms of our lives.

We are emotional beings and our emotions power our thoughts and behaviors. One emotion can generate a thoushand thoughts. All those thoughts affect our behaviors and our reality. And with the Law of Rhythm we repeat history!

What we feel, think and how we behave, attracts like into our reality ….. in our bodies and health, our physical reality ….. family, work, society at large. and it’s cyclic because of the swing of the pendulum.

Like the waves of the ocean we ride the wave forward, then there’s an undertow drawing us backwards. When we are moving forward it is for our own benefit to take advantage of it and ride the wave forward with gusto! Enjoy it and put our full effort into whatever project we have in mind.

When we feel the undertow starting to come into play then it is an indication to slow, stand strong and refuse to be pulled backwards, mentally acknowledging that it has no power over us …… use negation. This period is beneficial because it gives you time to recharge, refocus and refine your objectives. 

It’s simple

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 uplifting emotions and thoughts, and responsible behaviors.

The key is to BE CONSCIOUS with LOVE motivating us. If we aim for no harm to ourselves or others it helps harmonize us all. We flow in harmony with both the Laws of Cause and Effect, Karma and Rhythm. 

We are the masters of our own fate.
