Spirituality Information: The Case for Knowing Who You Really Are

Filed under Spirituality

Your spiritual growth requires you to continually ask the question, “Who am I?” The spirituality information you obtain from this question will guide you to abundance, health and harmony.

This article deals with many esoteric aspects of the origin of the universe, so it is important that you are open and receptive to the information you are about to receive. I would like you to open your mind and open your heart before we explore these ideas and concepts.

I am going to ask you to suspend any judgments or preconceived notions you may have about the origins of the universe and just listen to the words and the ideas. Please don’t put any labels on these concepts or classify the ideas into categories. When you label or classify an idea you are limiting your perspective, and with a limited perspective you can’t see the whole picture.

We are looking for a broad picture here. We want to develop a picture that can be seen from all perspectives. This is the only way to see the truth of an idea. If you can view an idea from an unlimited number of perspectives and they all tell you the same story, then you are surrounding the idea with truth.

That is our intention. We, you and I, are going to co-create this experience of really seeing ourselves, perhaps for the first time, from a much larger perspective than we ever have before. This larger, all-encompassing perspective is going to open ourselves to the symmetry of this huge creation of the universe in a way that allows us to see our own lives with more clarity and understanding of our larger purpose.

Albert Einstein understood this concept of nonjudgmental thinking. He said “You can’t get any revolutionary ideas from using the same thoughts you have been thinking. You must change the way you are thinking and think different thoughts.”

Sometimes you have to be “out of your mind” or, at the very least, “out of your comfort zone” to truly evolve and change the way you expect your future to be.

So as we explore these ideas and concepts concerning why the universe was created in the first place and then, what our purpose is in that creation, it will be necessary to use all of our senses. Not just our physical senses but also our nonphysical senses. Please allow your nonphysical senses of intuition, altruism and feelings guide you as we begin our journey.

Even though I have asked you not to use labels as you interpret this material I am going to say that this information is “supremely important” in the ultimate understanding of who you really are.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you will be able to liberate yourself from your own fears.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you can throw off any limitations that you have placed on yourself and begin to live a life without limits.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you can bring yourself into balance in the mind, body and spirit.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you will actually incorporate the concept of unconditional love into your life.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you will begin to create your life as you intend it to be.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you will experience the utter magnificence of yourself.

It is in the knowing of who you really are that you can begin to understand what true freedom really is.

If this sounds (physical sense) or better yet feels (nonphysical sense) like the truth to you, then you have opened your mind and your heart as I requested at the beginning of this article. This frees you to receive information without judgment. This is critical because there is information out there that is going to make all the rest of your life make sense.

Ways To Release Self-Worth Issues And Magnetize Abundance

Filed under Manifesting Abundance

When most people think of manifesting certain things in to their lives they talk about visualization of the goal, being determined, and working hard toward that end — but that is just one aspect. We who are involved in metaphysical teachings may or may not know that there is one more key to unlocking manifestation — self-worth. This is powerful, because it not only has a lot to do with what we feel we deserve to have, it has to do with whether we feel we deserve to be here in the first place.

From the teachings that I have been taught from Ascended Master Kwan Yin as channeled through my friend Marjorie, I have discovered that self worth plays a big role in our lives on earth. According to her, in the USA alone about 93% of the people here are dealing with issues of self-worth. That’s a lot.

Kwan Yin said that if we know that we are a part of and in co-creation with God, we can not have low self-esteem. She always says to us, “You are loveable, worthy and acceptable just as you are.” But as human beings, there are this and many lifetimes of effects to wade through, and sometimes we don’t feel so acceptable. Now we can recognize low self-esteem for the old energy pattern that it is and shift it. It is time.

Many times we have no idea that this is happening to us. We don’t feel like we are down on ourselves in anyway consciously. We don’t feel badly about ourselves. Yet the reflection of our feelings tell a different story as it outpictures in our lives — and there is the truth right in front of us. We will know our mind and our feelings by what we have created with them, which is everything in our life up to this moment.

I found that for myself, this issue of self-worth was causing a barrier between what I desired in my life and what I was getting, and I wanted to mend that. For me this has been going on for a long time over many lifetimes. So I have determined that it will stop at this life.

Manifesting Abundance Guided Meditation

Over time I have heard some great mantras or affirmations that feel good to me to say. These may help you to re gain your connection to your soul and to the power of God in you. One is “I am a Divine creation of God and I am of great worth.” For those of you like me who still are sensitive about wanting to be humble, I also add… “as are all other souls on earth.” This helps instill within me the feeling that not just I, but all souls are of great worth, of great value. The idea is that we are a part of the God Energy, and as such are all of great value, even those who have chosen to temporarily be a part of the darker or negative energy patterns on earth.

Another thing you can do is something I got from Louise Hay’s work when I was recovering from cancer. This is very simple but effective. Look closely into a mirror when you are alone. Look deeply into your eyes and say with feeling, “I love you.” This may sound silly at first and you may feel awkward, but just relax into it. Try to really get into the feeling of it as if you were talking to someone you really care about. You will be surprised at the depth of reaction.

Another thing you might try is: “I have a place in this world. I can take as much energy as I need.” I have included this into my own meditations because I had found that there are deep issues involving my unconscious feelings that I must only take as little as possible space in the world. Part of this is involved with self-worth, so I include it, but everyone will have some kind of other issues stemming from problems with self-worth, from finances to relationships to health.

Another way to release the self from unwanted blockages easily is to do it while you sleep. Kwan Yin says that just before you go to bed, close your eyes and ask the Masters to help you release any blockages involving self-worth during the night while you are resting. You may feel very differently the next day. Then again, you may feel just a sense of ease or peace that you have not experienced recently. Know that it is working.

Remember that we are the authors and architects of our lives, and that what we feel in the moment will determine the next sequence of events for us in the future. Know that you are connected to the Source and that you carry this energy with you always. Now is the time to realize your greatness. Now is the time for you to shine your God-given light and see it reflect back to you all good things that your heart desires.

The Secret Power of Faith

Filed under Life, Motivation, Spirituality

“Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.”
-Helen Keller

The power of your Faith is effective only when you are willing to risk whatever the situation demands of you and in whatever you attempt to do. Whether it’s freedom from illness, finding material wealth, and experiencing life itself, without a certain amount of risk, your faith is inactive. You are not testing its secret power.

Whenever you are really clear about something you wish to do and know why you wish it to happen, you must then put all of the power of your faith behind your actions to make it happen. Any action you attempt to do must come from your strongest desire and purpose.

How do discoverers, scientists, inventors of new products, and so-called geniuses perfect their achievements? By trusting in a faith that is active, they use it to achieve their dreams. Any new discovery or achievement is the result of faith in action; the secret power that comes from within. It is available to you and everyone who accesses it and uses it.

You may fail to realize your dreams when you separate mental power from personal action. To keep your thoughts and actions strong, you only need to keep focusing on your faith and make sure your emotions are in sync with your dreams. Think about what you like to happen rather then what you don’t wish to happen. This is easy: pay close attention to the way you feel. Your feelings will always take you to where your thoughts are focused.

Get in the habit of making your thinking strong enough so that your attention is on things you desire and on what feels right for you. The opportunity that comes from these clear thoughts will lead you to the necessary action that takes you in the direction you need to go. When your faith is strong enough, you can relax and let it take over. You will create and attract all that is miraculous in your life.

Develop and practice your faith by focusing on a safe, successful outcome for anything you attempt to do. Recognize what your limits are and what may be beyond your reach. If you are thinking about developing a new business, a new product, service, or idea seek help with the areas you lack knowledge and/or skill to do. A strong, passionate belief in your worthiness to succeed is the secret power of faith that will make it happen.

Look until you find that secret power within you. Then after each successful achievement your faith gets stronger. Each achievement inspires you to look for more ways to succeed. You are better prepared to take greater risks. And when you find your secret power you will discover your true self. This gives you the opportunity and motivation to make use of every experience in your life.

So, when you build that better mousetrap, write the next bestseller, or invent the next internet software program, the world will beat a path to your door, recognize you no matter who you are. You will collect the rewards for declaring your faith. Go, do and be full of the power of your faith.
