Let not the vicissitudes of life get in the way of your spiritual growth. The inner path, the path of direct heart centered growth, is the path of the spirit, the part of you that does not judge or condemn but only focuses on going where it knows to go, onward and upward. Know that your spirit does not grow sad, does not falter, does not grow weary. It is patient as it waits for you to remember its existence, as it waits for you to catch up to its urgings, and as it waits for you to follow its path. The path of spirit is the evolutionary path of true growth in any life. Find that path and you have found your purpose.
We live now in an age of extraverted influence where the mind is preoccupied with the narratives, messages and suggestions of outside influencers.
The energy that sustains these entities is largely drawn from the mental and emotional attention we supply them with, in our reactions to power dynamics exercised by the various players. It’s like a sport, where we identify with, and root for, our chosen team. The subtle energy of emotion powerfully shapes the creative outlet of its manifestation in physical reality.
My recent blogs have focused upon the power of self-hypnosis to generate change on the physical level of reality. The conscious exercise of autosuggestion allows one to assume personal responsibility for the creation of one’s own purely physical reality.
While it is true that outside influencers have infiltrated and saturated the news, social media, and atmospheric thought space with their intentions, everyone is free to think beyond these outer scripts and suggest to the subconscious a reality in harmony with their own personal intentions.
Predetermination must be accepted as a probability among all the permutations of all that is. Perhaps the interplay of formerly repressed historical autocratic forces, now unleashed throughout the globe, is so great that we cannot avoid the tide of its destruction. However, despite the potential of that possible reality, the freedom to create still rests with each individual.
My predilection is for a world where truth, not manipulation for personal gain, is the guiding force. I seek not to influence anyone with this intent other than to awaken them to their own latent power to create. May they exercise that power with heart, whichever way that leans.
Evolution requires of us to evolve, not to simply follow. If, as a species, we must relive and remake the past before we can move forward, then that truly is where we are and what we must live through. I can be in acceptance of that probability. I see no alternative but complete acquiescence, with equanimity, to all possible outcomes for evolution to advance.
The truth is that life in time/space offers such an opportunity for the refinement of the love we possess, so that, regardless of the drama of our given time here, we can grow. Learning to love all, with detachment, is the highest form of spiritual love. This is the definition of a path with heart.
I am convinced that a sizable portion of humanity is aligned with the intention for the greater good of the planet. This can very well be the silent majority. To be in alignment with this intention is to suggest it to the subconscious, without revealing it outwardly. No need to be an influencer. When we peddle our wares, we awaken the algorithms of descent that then drag us into the mud of doubt and despair.
Instead, find spiritual companionship in the rightness of a path with heart, and in the subtle dimension of dreaming as well, where teachers readily support evolutionary intent.
Hold dearly to your inner truth as your guiding spirit. Never surrender your power to intend, your innate birthright. Become the loving outcome of your own evolutionary suggestions.
Hold space for possibility beyond influence, Chuck
Embrace some new ideas today as a new day dawns. Start off on a new foot, in a new direction, if only in your intentions. Break old patterns, if only in taking a different route. Begin something new, if only in your thinking. Let yourself off the hook for something by doing something that may benefit others. Pay something forward. Each new day offers so many new possibilities. Just a simple change in attitude may begin a whole new cycle of change.
Changing times call for changing attitudes. The best medicine is often something totally outside of the norm, unusual and even the opposite of what you think might be needed. Strength, courage and a sense of humor may get you through the worst of times much better than any standard of care. A knowing heart may know what is best, an inner sense that something drastic must be done, a cure that does not require anything more than a deep soul search, an adjustment of direction, balance and yes, attitude. They often say that gratitude is the attitude that cures all, but more often than not it’s facing a truth and accepting it, with honesty. A new honest attitude toward the self may be all that is needed.
Protect yourself even as you give of yourself. Watch your energy so that you do not overextend, while at the same time keep your heart open so that your caring self has plenty of expression. The world needs help in so many ways and yet divisions create more differences than there really are. Nature, in her eternal way, shows what happens when chaos ensues and yet her chaos is not caused by divisions or inflations but by nature’s evolutionary intent, which carries only change while human intent often carries malice. Continue the work of a good and caring heart, something that nature, even with all her beauty, does not have, and see what happens in the long run.
