So, you've been on the spiritual path a good while now, and
feeling pretty OK with your
progress. You've read the books,
attended the whole life expos, and generally processed & integrated your assets off. In your quest of becoming you have
opened your heart, learned gratitude and forgiveness; all while wrestling with
your ego for control of your life. Because you know what it's about, you just
say you're a work in progress.
It certainly hasn't been easy getting to this point, and all
indications are it's about to get a good deal more difficult in the days ahead. These are halcyon days we're living through,
lots going on that demands our attention; maintaining ourselves is more
important than ever now...and maybe you even sense that too. Have you noticed recently that some hard
lessons & bad memories have returned
from whatever void you banished them to?
In recent months have you suddenly been overwhelmed by these
negative memories & emotions from the
past; when you weren't even thinking on the subject to begin with? Most likely you haven't done anything to
trigger such a release, so you sure as hell don't expect them when they
hit. Have the ugly brothers regret,
remorse & resentment been
trying to move back into your subconscious?
Been wondering to yourself lately why so many of these
gremlins have returned so long after you healed that wound and balanced that energy? What is going on here? Knowing you did things right the first
time, you cannot understand why these ghosts have come back to haunt you at
this critical time. I call them ghosts
because that is kinda what they are; heavy negative residue left over from
"the old days" before you got your chakras and aura back into
good shape.
These negative echoes from the past can get you
doubting yourself and second guessing everything you believe spiritually, and
they seldom travel alone. Part of what's
causing all this disharmony is "separation anxiety" from 3D reality
structures. Everything we've ever known & counted upon has gone away, never to
return: and it grows more distant with each new horror or nightmare we bear
unwilling witness to. Seeing what we're
being dragged down into makes us second guess a few other things as well; and such
are the things that give rise to the ghosts from healings past.
Are there other contributing factors, you bet! Although healed, those old trauma's left
behind a souvenir in the form of scar tissue; which influences this melancholy release
of these old memories...emotional scar tissue: leaves evidence of itself behind
the same as physical tissue does; you just can't see it! Because we cannot see it and aren't
expecting it, this emotional scarring can trip us up & throw us off balance quite easily, and we almost never see
it coming.
So, it really isn't so much the pain from the past that's
surfacing, but more like shadow of the memory of it. It's kinda like trying to bury an old useless
tire that just won't stay buried.* As far
as I'm aware there is no way to restore this old emotional scar tissue to like
new condition. I think maybe the
best way to deal with these things when they surface, is to gently acknowledge
them; thank 'em, bless 'em then put 'em to some good use ... as
trail markers of your spiritual journey, to look back at how far you've come,
and the obstacles you had to overcome.
This whole process can be even harder if those in your
immediate inner circle do not share your spiritual values, or have only
recently been jarred from slumber by the great awakening; in either
case, they have their own pressing problems to deal with. I understand that very often spiritual & metaphysically inclined folks are drawn
together but this isn't always the case.
Additionally, there are many others who are alone by their own choice,
for whatever reasons. Solo travelers on
the spiritual sojourn.
Good childhood memories are also to be expected to
surface right along with the ones we'd rather forget...and for similar
reasons. Part of us senses that things
are never going to be the way they once were, its like we're saying goodbye for
the last time. This whole process of good &
bad memories flooding into the consciousness can even make one think they're
about to die because its like seeing your life flash before your eyes.
Hearts, Minds
& Dreams
We see a lot these days about raising our vibration...part
of which is cutting away dead weight that drags us down. Like the hot air balloon, we cannot rise
until enough dead weight is cut loose. Fifteen
years ago when I was active within the human potential movement, I dragged a
computer with me everywhere I was booked.
This contained several of the day's leading biofeedback software
programs including the Aura video station, and an amazing program from Heart
Math; called the Freeze Framer.
The main feature of this software
was a biofeedback game where you could fly and control a hot air balloon using only
your mind! Spooky cool stuff.
If you were all rigidly focused on flying the balloon
successfully; the thing wouldn't budge.
However when you learned to relax into the moment, and yourself, you'd find a sort of sweet spot where the
balloon on the monitor would actually begin responding by lifting off. The trick is to identify that sweet spot and
then freeze frame it; locking it in.
As the ten minute entrainment program continues, the player must of course navigate
some obstacles before reaching the finish line.
No joystick required! A kind of
relaxed concentration is needed to fly the balloon - or it will come crashing
down quite abruptly. The same exact
thing applies to everyday spiritual life, you might get lucky with
autopilot for a while; but a lack of conscious intent will ground you sooner
rather than later.
Biofeedback is a marvelous way to actually show folks how
energy follows thought, and I believe knowing that little gem is more important
right now today than ever before. This
is primarily what we're talking about when discussing raising our spiritual
energies, and maintaining them at the highest level possible,
comfortably. Focus your thoughts,
intentions and dreams on where you wish to be, not mired down in
where you've been. It's why balloons
don't come with rear view mirrors.
Those who are now getting a crash course via the great
awakening will undoubtedly have more than just scar tissue to deal with; likely
as not many of you still have a lot of "sandbags" weighing you down, preventing
your balloon of higher frequency from rising.
If this sounds familiar; I don't wanna seem rude, but it's time to cut
some dead weight if you don't want to stay here. Those who find their life still has too many
toxic people & relationships must
find the courage to just say no more, and cut them loose. Haven't you already tried everything
else? How about all those painful
emotional memories you can't help but revisit over and over again, you know;
the ones that can never be resolved or healed - why can't you just thank them,
bless them and let them go? Holding on
doesn't require strength, but letting go does!
You never
change the world the same way twice
We need to be distancing ourselves from the everyday
tyrannical little things which demand so much attention. They are imposters and energy vampires. Speak truth to power by boycotting all
business who support Black Friday and the ridiculous idea that corporations are
people. Corporations are not
people. Only people
are people! You'll
never raise your spiritual frequency by sucking down the exhaust fumes
emanating from lame stream media's tailpipe!
It looks & feels
like the powers that be are about to rip the lid off at Ferguson just any time
now, after letting the unholy stew boil over for long enough for maximum
damage. Ignore it, boycott the news,
don't give it your energy. We must
starve the fear loop of our attention, and energy - look away, raise your
vibration above it like a balloon flying above the storm.
As long as we continue to give our money and silent tacit
approval to those who we hate because they're poisoning the planet, the
longer they will continue their evil machinations. How exactly, does the logic of this escape so
many minds while so many others are freed from it thru conscious intent.
Just decide to live a better way. Then Act!
By constantly giving your attention to all of the over-hyped
horrific media blood sport and bracing for yet another Black Friday assault,
you are just adding more and more sandbags to your basket and preventing your
lift off to higher realms. Once you're
un-tethered and your energy begins to steadily rise, those once mighty issues
look like tiny dots from 3000 feet up. The more dead weight you can drop, the faster
things happen and before you know it, you have a whole new perspective on
nearly everything, and you're living life like there's no yesterday.
There is no looking
back!

Now this article is really hitting home! This is just what I need right now, along with the Sun & Moon both going into Sagittarius at once for the new moon Sat. It is so important to have as much fun as possible at life, (but sometimes things get so dark.)
ReplyDeleteI used to think one of U2's song lyrics were "Love is a 'Balloon (s/b Bloom), shoots up from the stoney ground." It came on my commute once by radio, just as a Balloon was rising up from the ground on the horizon (Rte 91 in Vermont/NH a beautiful drive) Synchronicity to me is an expression of spiritual, or universal love. That just made my heart burst with joy. I ran home after work that day and journaled on it...
Great visual imagery, " It looks & feels like the powers that be are about to rip the lid off at Ferguson just any time now, ... How exactly, does the logic of this escape so many minds while so many others are freed from it thru conscious intent." Excellent self-protection.
Hi Moonbeam~
DeleteThe Heyoka is at home in the dark; yet lives in the light, riding the cusp between both worlds.
Do you think Pirsig is a (non-Lakota) Heyoka?
