Finding Beauty – Cherry Blossoms
“We should try to develop the love of Beauty, which is at the
foundation of our being.”
Eugene Fersen
Cherry Blossoms
One of the most spectacular signs of life budding from a long winter’s slumber is that of the plants and trees blooming with warm spring colors against clear, blue skies.
Pale pink is the color of tender and unconditional Love.
It is spring’s sweet blossom of compassion and gentle nurturing.
In the Japanese tradition and art the cherry tree is symbolic of extreme beauty then quick death; mortality. It’s like clouds that burst forth in their bountiful glory then quickly change, even disappearing to the human eye though they have merely changed form.
Life it is always changing and in constant movement. Upon the earthly death of an individual, the soul merely changes its body, its form.
Even the trunk of the ornamental cherry tree is beautiful!

What They’re Not Telling, Part 5
Spirit of the Soul
We tend to overlook our simplest soul attributes and put them in the back seat of our activities. Yet, we need only express them in our life to help us live a more successful, happier life now. And as we live them consistently, the more refined we become, revealing the source of those qualities – the Spirit of our Soul.
FreeDigitalPhotos.net, patrisyu
A newborn’s tender expressions of their soul remind us of our own soul qualities which are hidden behind the masks we have created for ourselves and we’ve come to believe. We were once newborns too, and can express those FourSquare qualities again:
- Newborns assert living in the moment. Life is precious and this moment is a once in a lifetime opportunity to live it fully without fear of the unknown future or pain of the past.
- Their very presence is the felicity of creative change. Change is the very nature of the universe, and it is advantageous for us to maintain an attitude that is mentally open and adaptable rather than fight against change, looking on it as an opportunity for growth.
- Newborns demonstrate that we do not know everything there is to know and that is a blessing because we have the joy of learning and making new discoveries before us. As we commit to our spiritual practice in earnest, we become more conscious of inspiration and guidance of our Super-consciousness and the traits and habits of the subconsciousness, which we can use wisely to help transform ourselves. With an Enlightened Mind we discriminate intelligently with the consideration of Love leading us in our choices of behaviors.
- Newborns testify to sincerity, honesty and the power of faith and trust in the Eternal. Doubt fades away the more we are sincere and honest we are in our thoughts, feelings and behaviors, freeing us from the roles we play and aligning with the Universal Laws. Habitually repeating anger, resentment, guilt, worry and other subconscious traits can lead to becoming self-righteous, limiting our view of the world and ourselves.
- It is easy to love our own newborns since they are so tender, gentle and trusting. Newbies radiate an aura of generous love and even if they are not our children they warm our hearts. Their heart of love attracts love from within us and gives us the great opportunity to know the best part of ourselves, our unconditional Love and the endless abundance of love. Compassionate Love promotes understanding and cooperation.
- When we look into the eyes of a newborn we can see that Divinity is close at hand, because looking into the eyes of another human is looking at Divinity. And, when we are truly conscious of looking at Divinity, another Soul, we can see ourselves in them, because we are of the same Divine Source.
Easy to Love
As we consciously practice releasing false beliefs about ourselves, we also can wholeheartedly embrace Love and all our soul qualities of Strength, Wisdom, Truth. The more we do, the closer we come to the full realization of the Spirit of our Soul, the Divine in ourselves.
We can see the Divine in newborns. Now is the time to see It in others and most of all experience It in our self. Our Soul qualities to wholeheartedly manifest are:
In the hope you find Love close at hand, Portia SLB
Until next time consider this quote to reflect upon:
“The emotion of Love is for us the key which open the gates of Heaven. In reality we do not love human beings; we think we do. We love Divinity through human beings. We have that longing and yearning within us to go back to the Father, to the Absolute, and whenever we find a channel through which we can achieve that return to Him, a channel opened by Love, we are only too glad to use it, because it is the inmost desire of our heart, it is the love of our Soul.”
Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 44.
Nature’s Sunflowers
We live in constructed civilization, yet we are still surrounded by nature’s bounty from the air we breath, the grass growing in the crack of the sidewalk, to the flower in the garden. When become aware of such wonders it brightens our outlook because it inspires us to appreciate not only the beauty we live in, but also to feel it emotionally!
In the hope You have many emotional sunflowers in your life, Portia SLB
What They’re Not Telling, Part 4
Soul Statement of Love
We spend most of our life unconscious of the best part of our self, and at times suffer from aversion, fear, and loneliness. But, newborns speak to us soul to soul to help us know that we are capable of giving and receiving the deepest kind of love.
FreeDigitalPhotos.net, David Castillo Dominici
Being Lead by Love
It was love at first site for me, even before first site, when my children were born. And, for most people newborns draw some degree of love from them through the Law of Vibration and the Law of Attraction.
- You can see tenderness in others when they respond to newborns. Newborns have a transcendental atmosphere about them that brings gentleness, nurturing and love to the surface of our consciousness. Through loving them we can get a real sense of our unlimited capacity to love. The more we love the more we have to give.
- Little by little we begin to realize that compassion is unconditional love in action and it’s a great privilege to help another being, if it is nurturing a newborn or even if it is only holding the door for someone. That’s a great gift because it helps us be less self-centered, while getting a glimpse of our true character which is abundantly generous with kindness, goodwill and patience.
- Through compassion we can come to appreciate the opportunity and benefit of approaching everyone as a friend with respect and compassion. Love is wise because it is also Enlightened Mind. Thus, we will be wise enough to know when to back off and let anyone have their space if they are contrary. It is our opportunity to love them unconditionally without harsh judgment and help them if they ask for it. They are on their journey, working out their karma as they agreed to with The Great Law.
- Another quality of love that newborns bring to the forefront of our consciousness is patience, and they certainly can help us discipline in that respect. We can come to recognize patience within ourselves. But, we add to the energy of impatience and negative if we tolerate aggression in our adult relationships. That’s when to say “no” to aggression and cruelty which causes all concerned to suffer and we should not be patient with it. We can learn to set limits, while keeping our heart open to unconditional love.
Being Human
Newborns are human and complain like most of us. They cry when they are impatient, but on a deeper level they cry to be cared for and loved. Their impatience and complaints do not hurt us because we love them.
When we, as adults, are impatient or complain we are unconsciously trying to be cared for and loved too, but being self-conscious we are responsible for the perverted idea of love. We try to get attention and sympathy, even wanting to blame someone or something else rather than taking responsibility for ourselves.
If someone’s complaints hurt our feelings that is because there is something within the ego to be hurt. They can motivate us to look within ourselves and find out why.
For ways to release habitual behaviors that keeps us repeating the same adverse patterns consider the series: The Power of Emotion to Change Your Life.
The Law of Attraction is the Law of Love
We are naturally attracted to newborns because of love. When we discriminate and consciously let love lead us then we naturally feel it in our heart, and compassion begins to grow in us which spreads to embrace others too.
Great Friends of humanity have brought the message of Love throughout the ages, and so too has The Lightbearer Eugene Fersen brought the Law of Love to help us return to the Love of our Soul and the Eternal, transforming ourselves to a freer, stronger and happier condition.
THE LAW OF LOVE: NO MATTER UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES,
ALWAYS MEET EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY WITH LOVE.
May you find Love close at hand, Portia SLB
To see what 60 Minutes says about newborns knowledge of human morals view the video in: Soul Quality of Truth and Law.
Next week we’ll put it all together, with the help of the Great Law and look at how expressing all of our soul qualities of Life, Mind, Truth and Love naturally leads us to realization of union with Spirit. It’s what newborns are not telling us, unless we read their analogy!
Until next week consider this quote to reflect upon:
“All things can be bought; LOVE IS THE ONE THING WHICH CAN NEVER BE BOUGHT. That is why it is really precious and that is why we should never be ungenerous with it, because there is always enough for us to give. In fact, the more we give, the more there is to be given.”

What They’re Not Telling, Part 3
Soul Statement of Truth and Law
Newborns can’t talk, but they display an amazing presence of Sincerity, Truth and Law. As adults we can be insincere, superficial, and deceitful. Have we forgotten what we knew as newborns? Infants have a lot to teach us Soul to Soul if we read their analogy.
- Newborns are very sincere, expressing their Soul Quality of Truth.
FreeDigtalPhotos.net, David Castillo Dominici
Genuine
Newborns bring Truth to the surface of their being; they are very sincere and honest. Plus, research is showing that babies as young as three months old know right from wrong as seen in the 60 Minutes clip below. The clip also offers that we incarnate carrying prestigious we’ve accumulated in the subconscious ego, yet there is hope through understanding of justice and love to rise above them.
Newborns do cry and are impatient, but when they cry they are sincerely expressing physical issues.
In a way we cry too, complain and are impatient when we experience problems. We are inclined to worry, doubt and fear our ability to harmonize them. We are reluctant to go to dark places within our self and see our mistakes, to feel them fully, then work to release them and start new positive causes. That takes courage.
Trust and Faith
Newborns are very courageous. They incarnated to earth physically helpless, demonstrating great trust and faith in the Eternal. As their caretakers, we carry a great hope for our newborns to grow, become adults and achieve all that they can. We encourage and bolster their growth. It is an analogy that says we also have within us trust and faith, but we doubt the Source.
The Truth and Law of Our Soul
We are inherently sincere and courageous, but we get lost in the dream of the ego. We doubt our connection and the support of the Eternal. We prop up false images of our self trying to be what we perceive others expect us to be. In other words, we are inclined to be insincere and pretentious.
And, when it is a ‘little white lie’ we think it’s okay and even polite! Like when we say things to people we don’t really mean, but say them anyway trying to please them.
We can be kind without lying. We can choose to look others in the eye and speak sincerely; we can choose to say what we mean and mean what we say, keeping our promises. We can choose to be honest and law-abiding.
Through our choices we determine the path of our life; we create the vast majority of the conditions around us and within us.
Allowing Truth
You know how it feels when you sincerely express the truth; how liberating and freeing it is. That’s because you are releasing yourself from the chains of the subconscious ego. The Great Law encourages and assists our growth through all the Universal Laws that we live in. Truth frees us of egotistic traits and opens us to the tenderness, kindness and Love of our heart and soul, and thereby we create expansive, abundant, and happier conditions.

Next week we will continue this series with what newborns reveal about Soul Love, with the help of the Great Law. Until then consider this quote to reflect upon:

What They’re Not Telling, Part 2
Mind Soul Statements
We may not know what is going on in a newborn’s fuzzy little head, but if you can read their analogy they communicate soul to soul. They express emotions, display mental sensory awareness and new research is showing that they even display some level of self-consciousness. Their mental condition points the way to our own mental condition and transformation to Enlightened Mind.
FreeDigitalPhotos.net, Clare Bloomfield
Consciousness
Newborns have a fully functioning Mind, but with a new brain they have to acquire knowledge and consciously learn through their senses. They feel gentle kisses on their little faces, hear our coos of love and encouragement, taste mother’s milk, smell the scent of her and even try to focus their eyes.
They are like a mental sponge, absorbing knowledge at an amazing rate. They naturally live in the moment, synchronizing mind and body. They feel pain, but apparently do not fear it.
Somewhere along the way to becoming an adult, we’ve forgotten what comes naturally to newborns. We’ve become resistant to change, reluctant to learn anything new, experience fear, and forget to live in the moment. Yes, we are now more self-conscious, which is the idea of “I think, therefore, I am.” But, we’ve gotten so wrapped-up in our busy life and demands of civilization that we neglect trying to know our inner self and soul, which is essential to realizing our connection to and support of the Eternal “I AM,” and our very realistic happiness now.
Subconsciousness
It is true that newborns exhibit obvious signs of mental inefficiencies like nescience and emotional subconscious traits like impatience, but they also have an aura of Love about them. They incarnated to earth physically helpless, trusting and having faith in the Eternal to provide means to grow into a better, freer condition. That trust is made real and material through us, their caretakers. It’s an amazing privilege for us.
It is a common practice in hospitals for preemies to be held for periods of time on a care taker’s chest with skin contact. They hear the heart beat, feel the charge and aura of love of another soul.
The heart is our seat of Love and this therapy nurtures them through the Law of Attraction and Law of Vibration. Newborns need care and love in order to flourish, giving us a great opportunity to personate unconditionally love and compassion as representatives of the Great Principle on earth.
Allowing Enlightened Mind
Being self-conscious of unconditional Love and compassion is allowing an Enlightened Mind. We live in the moment, keeping to the main issues without getting lost in details. We listen to the voice of Inspiration (‘I am’), having faith and trust in our connection with and support of ‘I AM,’ the Great Principle. And thus, by allowing Enlightened Mind we make responsible choices to not only help newborns, but also to help all of us achieve all that we can in this life.
To learn more about Enlightened Mind that helps us live a rich and full life: MIND.
May You find Love close at hand, Portia SLB
With the help of the Great Law in the next posting we will examine what newborns are not telling us about Truth and Law (yet they are)!
Until then consider this quote to reflect upon:
“TO LIVE INTELLIGENTLY MEANS TO GIVE TO EACH PERSON AND TO EACH THING THEIR PROPER PLACE, to keep one’s judgment clear and try to judge as impartially as possible.”
Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 22.

What They’re Not Telling, Part 1
Life Soul Statements
When newborns come into this world you can see a certain look in their eyes. Newborns always look wise to me, like they know something they’re not telling. Although they are not talking, they make a lot of big, deep Soul statements. They are great teachers for us if we choose to understand and read their analogy.
FreeDigitalPhotos.net, patrisyu
Creative Life
Newborns bring out the best in most of us because their very presence draws out love from within us. They create an opportunity for us to know unconditional love. And, that is a great gift because knowing that we are capable of unconditional love is something we can express as compassion to help heal our self and the world.
Yet their most obvious (though often overlooked) gifts are the simplest demonstrations of creative Life that are soul statements. Those soul statements remind us of our own soul gifts:
- A newborn’s very presence is a great gift of Divine Creative Life. Creativity is a quality of the Eternal and our Soul and newborns are a living example of our own gift of creativity.
When I was young I was very creative and it made me happy to create drawings and wonderful dirt roadways for my matchbox cars. As we age we tend to forget the joys of creativity which has effected the quantity and quality of our happiness and overall condition.
Consider infusing some type of constructive creativity in your life, even if it is making dirt roads for your kids matchbox cars to increase your happiness!
- A newborn may not be able to tell us what life is all about, but we can see it in their analogy. A newborn’s purpose is simply to live. They are making the most of their life in the moment, doing the right thing in the moment.
They are Powerful force in the Universe and as harmonious Souls help strengthen the goodwill and movement for cooperation in this world! Even if their life is very short, and it sometime happens, it has purpose. One purpose may be to help us remember how precious life is, to be grateful and make the best time of it.
Consider infusing gratitude in your consciousness and being aware of this very moment to center yourself in your soul!
- Newborns scream enthusiasm, especially at their first breath. That thirst for life is a powerful emotion that empowers newborns to continue to live and progress. It comes from their heart and soul. Positive enthusiasm is an emotional boost which draws positive energy into their reality to better their condition. It’s true for us too. Enthusiasm lifts our spirits and that energy enriches our life. It draws more positive conditions into our reality through the Law of Attraction!
Consider infusing constructive enthusiasm in your realization to boost your positive energy!
That’s what life is all about in those first few moments and all the moments after: to simply live in the moment, to take life seriously, and to take responsibility for life facing it with enthusiasm.
Yet, there’s more to life than seen in those first few moments of a newborn and for us too because life is license for transformation!

Next week we will look at the Mind qualities expressed by newborns, Soul to Soul! Until then, consider this quote to reflect upon:

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