Acceptance of what is

“We are in the Eternal and It is in us. It contains our physical, mental and emotional bodies, and our activities. It is That from which all things come and to which all things return. Everything in Creation comes from the depth of the Eternal Itself. Everything emerges, fulfills its mission, and returns back to the Original Source. The Power of protection and guidance is with us from beginning to end.”

Has the ego kept this secret from you?

Temptation is not something that is out there tempting us. Nor is there is a little devil on our shoulder tempting us. The ego just likes us to think that!

Temptation is from within the egotistical subconscious. We wouldn’t feel tempted if it wasn’t within! That’s the secret the ego tries to keep from us to retain its power over us.

Yet we have the opportunity to free ourselves from the burden of subconscious desires. And the easiest way that I know of is to embrace the truth as ugly as it might be.

The ego seduces us with the desire of gain, the payoffs of satisfaction in guilt, hatred, and even curiosity. We’ve seen in the news that the ego will kill in classrooms just to know what it feels like!

When we can see the seductions of the ego clearly, then it gives us a wonderful opportunity to release them and rise above into higher levels of consciousness.

So when we feel a tug of seduction or what we may call temptation to feel guilty, feel resentment or hatred, then it is a sure sign that our Higher Self is working to help us rise above it because we are in the field of awareness.

And awareness is a dedication to love. We can see the truth, which opens the door to love within us. Truth is the key to open ourselves to love, to gratitude, to unconditional Love.

And love rises us in consciousness. Even conditional love can help us remember that love is an innate part of us. And once we feel love, we want to be in that energy again.

The FourSquare helps us build to that spiritual unconditional love through dedication to being strong, wise, truthful, and loving. And each time we express these qualities, opening the door to love through truth we rise in consciousness. We experience more fulfillment and happiness.

What has been your experience?

Today’s consideration: Unintended spiritual progress?

Photo by cottonbro studio on Pexels.com

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?”

Disastrous control from infancy!

Photo by jonas mohamadi on Pexels.com

Greetings Lightbearers!

Have you seen 2 year old toddlers display the strange behavior of walking away from the protection of their parents in places like a mall? I have. And I recognize the attitude within myself and you will too when you examine it closer.

We are controlled and programed from infancy. Then our mental conditioning continues as we age into toddlerhood, kindergarten and school. We’re told what to do, when to do it and how to do it. What attitudes and behaviors to display. We are conditioned for compliance to attitudes and behaviors, usually for our own good to reinforce our survival.

Yet, we all desire Freedom from all the programming, from complications, strife and the heavy burdens of humanity. We all want the same things: health, happiness, peace and love.

Even toddlers desire Freedom!

But, we have been unknowingly conditioned to be a slave to the subconscious ego from a very, very early age. We are addicted to circling in guilt, desire, worry …..trapped in thoughts …..controlled by the ego.

Yet deep down there is something within that wants Freedom. And we may exercise our freedom in ways that can be disastrous ….. like driving too fast…. lashing out at people that don’t agree with our self-righteousness ….indulging in porn, binge eating, or other dangerous activities.

Yet we are usually unaware that it is still just programming of the subconscious. Why? Because the body also becomes programmed with these memories. There are many types of memories programmed in the body…. like evolutionary and genetic karma, personal karma, and habits.

So what can we do to claim our Freedom?

Remember freedom is based in Truth.

First, we can allow ourselves to be conscious and honest about any programming we experience. The Truth gets us everywhere.

Second, consciously release egotistic programming. That is move to #3, rise above programming.

And third, work in the moment to be FourSquare: Be enthusiast and intelligent, along with displaying integrity and compassion, thereby aligning with the Great Principle and our Soul. Thus we gain our Freedom from the subconscious ego’s programming to reveal our Real Self and Soul.

“Seems so” consideration

Photo PSLB

As we consciously travel our spiritual journey we seem to be presented with many dualities or obstacles that challenge our progress.These choices or obstacles appear conflicted between good and bad or helpful and not helpful causing stagnation/decline.

And I’ve found that the one that raises red flags of caution is when I’m feeling I ‘should‘ choose one pole over another!

I’ll ask myself why am I feeling anxious. Is it because subtle guilt is attached to mortal programming or is it fear? There’s a payoff of pleasure for a particular choice or fear of the alternative. It’s a want or not want thing.

Yet let us remember that our spiritual journey is all about Freedom, primarily freedom from the subconscious ego and its traits, programming and obligations. We can always suspend any choice until another opportunity presents itself with greater options.

Yet any choices that appear in duality can be resolved with a deep spiritual intent to use the FourSquare as guidance, using All Energy, Intelligence, Law and Love balanced in your choice. Then surrendering it to the Great Principle, knowing that things will workout according to the Great Law.

Every decision consideration

Every decision you make is a reflection of what you think about yourself.

And it comes to “Know thyself” doesn’t it?

Is it a decision to benefit the ego or soul?

It hurts so good! 

PSLB

It’s all happiness to know that anything that was horrific in the past is gone. It’s logical. Yeah, we tend to cling to evil in memories and perceived injustices that others must pay for.

It’s the ego that clings to the illusion that the past is still now because it serves a purpose. The past is a place to lay blame for our pain and disappointments. For our wounded self-esteem.

The ego seeks retribution for offenses. Seeks vengeance. And even though we want to place blame on someone else, it returns to us as guilt. And because of guilt, inner condemnation, the ego demands vengeance on ourselves!

Yet how could we experience guilt without our own alliance with the past and with the ego?

How do we escape this vicious cycle?

These are questions we can ask ourselves to begin to be conscious and sane, instead of circling in the past, bringing it to the present with guilt and repeated thought patterns. 

In the present moment, in the Silence, we can recognize our freedom and Inner beauty. We need only make a small effort, spiritual intent to pause, take a deep breath, come to the moment mentally and be silent.

And a wave of gratitude can lift us into a higher level of consciousness and energies that brings us more freedom from the illusions of the ego. And we are happier.

This tiny step in our attitude and mental intent for Silence in the moment offers freedom. And the Great Law helps us expand and you can actually feel Universal Life Energy physically and/or mentally. You are communicating with The Universe!

In that instance is peace and love. The Truth is constantly now.

In the hope that you find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

Your potentials for 2026

Hoping for You and your Loved Ones

and All Humanity

a

Healthy, Enlightening and Successful Year and Always

Photo by rizknas on Pexels.com

If you are looking for a fresh start in your life, this #1 year, 2026, has the energies to boost your courage to start anew!

2026 = 2 + 0 + 2 + 6 = 10/1

In sacred numerology #1 represents Source and the Universal Great All, of which we are part. And communication is emphasized to facilitate unity ….. communication with Source, our Higher Self and with each other.

There may be renewed emphasis on taking action for the greater good of humanity due in part to the increased energy boosting communication on deeper and more comprehensive levels.

Individually this year will help us refresh and update our communication skills, remembering optimism is key for inspiring ourselves and others. We have the opportunity to communicate not only with our Higher Self through intuition, but also with Source Itself in meditation and conscious awareness in the present moment. Some simple practices are shared below.

Number 1 boosts energies for developing our sense of Inner Peace and purpose ….. to develop self-reliance and discipline. No more clicking into pop-culture opinion sites, rather it’s time to recenter within to our Inner Love and respect for ourselves and others.

When we respect and recognize the beauty and Love within others that love and respect is reflected back to us even when others are not conscious of it. This encourages others to do the same and develops our communication skills.

Number 1 is a masculine, Yang, energy that will be felt by everyone. And since it is the start of a new 9 year cycle it’s an opportunity to bravely step into infinite potential!

I am so happy to share some practices for You to get your optimistic juices flowing, while keeping you calm and centered even when things get loud and hectic.

🌞 A morning practice to help you get ready for the day: The Star Exercise. Simply stand with arms and legs stretched out into a star position with hands cupped up to receive Universal Life Energy, breathing deeply. This simple exercise is physical communication with Source. You can feel the Energy and be inspired! I do this exercise after I awaken in the mornings and as I fall asleep in bed.

🌙 An evening, soothing practice to wind-down to help you release any challenges you may have faced and reestablish inner peace: Relaxation and Silence. Pause. Take some deep, slow breathes and relax physically. Relax your thinking and let thoughts go and pass, until silent.

The uniting energies of #1 helps us become more aware of Self and I am, a divine expression of our unity with Our Father.

This I am practice is a verbal Self-consciousness communication with our Higher Self and connection to Our Father. It’s a Declaration of Truth that sinks into our subconscious and returns to consciousness to restore you for new beginnings:

🌞🌙I am indissolubility connected to the Eternal and I am an Individualized Ray manifesting all the same qualities of Strength, Wisdom, Truth and Love. I am Spirit manifest.”

Remember to be patient with yourself this year, knowing that within you is Divine Love. And share that Love with everyone you meet.

You can see a spark of Light in the eyes of someone when you approach them with gratitude and ask questions like: What’s been the best part of your day? What is your most inspiring interest? Or gives you the most joy? What are you most grateful for, if you are willing to share? What is your greatest creation? And why? ….. Ask why for expanded connection, communication and insight.

The illusion of Love is easily spotted and derails Truth in communication and circles to guilt, so contact your Inner Love and Truth before you intent to communicate and inspire both another and yourself!

And most of all, I hope for You and All of Us this year that we seek, find and remove barriers within ourselves that we have built against Truly communicating with Our Father, our Higher Self and with each other. And the means to do so has always been within Yourself!

May You experience Peace Always, PortiaSLB

A State of Mind, Part 1

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!

Alaska Reflection

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

photo PSLB

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.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“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.”
