Making Yourself Fit

In this particular instance, I am referring to making yourself fit on the mental and spiritual level. Injuries, imbalances and limitation on any level prevent us from being the jewel we really are. Guilt is one of the worse culprits. It is always wise to inspect your life and see where you are at the moment and where you are going. I frequently mention the negative programming we have endured must be deprogrammed from the fetus to the third year of life. The fetus feels the emotions of the parents. There is also trauma as a result of our being hypnotized and conditioned in the brain and emotions through destructive experiences. I used to offer Rebirthing sessions and the participants came face to face with their hidden
pain. So, what else can we do about our inner wounds?

Scientology asks their members to subject themselves to sweat baths five hours at a time for two weeks or more. Rebirthing also suggests water therapy. Everyone does not have the luxury of spending hours in water. Memory is in the brain, the muscles and the connective tissue in the bone marrow. It seems to be recorded on the cellular level. Negative memory is likened to a spell. I remember reading information Rev. Hannah Kroeger wrote twenty one years ago stating that programmed people need a formula of herbs called Birthright. It contains blue vervain, rosemary and calamus root. She suggested drinking one cup two times a day for fourteen days. The formula brings out amazing results. We have to make ourselves free from what binds us.

We help make our self fit by loosening constrictions that hold us back. The rips in our personal aura need to be healed. Any type of violence makes deep scars in the psyche of a person, particularly children. Almost everyone has a phobia that usually stems from injuries and neglect of the spiritual body. What happens in most people is that the inner self closes down when a terrible incident is experienced.
I have witnessed through laying hands on others and calling on a Higher Power to intervene, the hypnotic shell can be shattered from inside. This also works beautifully in absentee healing when the patient is ready and willing to cooperate. What occurs is a breakthrough to a higher level of energy, which is light. With the person's cooperation and acceptance, it becomes a spiritual rebirth. Frequently, a spiritual healing will begin a mental/physical healing. There are many forms of help.

Take Control of Your Thinking

How are your New Year resolutions holding up? Deciding to say a daily mantra, meditate, exercise or be brave and begin a cleansing diet all will help regenerate, inspire and get the results you desire. To create a disciplined mind, learn to concentrate. Early in life I trained my thoughts by staring at a blank wall for long periods of time. The focus was to strengthen awareness of my own spiritual identity. I also love to learn new things but learning is not thinking necessarily. It fills the brain with data, which is needed to develop the power of thought. I would spend time focusing on an idea and translating it in order to use it in daily life. When I would focus on the blank wall, visions and messages, which are ideas coming from a higher energy, would usually occur.

I look upon this type of thinking as soul thinking. It is a means to increase one's light, energy and healing. The power of focused thought is translated into a higher activity of mind. We can heal ourselves and others through the power of directed thought. If we can change our diet and exercise habits, why not change our thinking? When we become deep thinkers and actually understand what we are thinking about, our thoughts become a powerhouse. An inner realization happens as a result of our taking control. Whether your thinking process is logical or a form of inner realization, both methods eventually lead to a destination where you begin to know your true Self.

We succeed when we sustain a faith in our choice, plan and focus. Failure occurs when we start thinking that there is no time for exercise, meditation or any of the other helpful tools that strengthen the mind and heart. So, when you really think about this subject, it has to do with strengthening the will, changing habits, putting yourself in a training mode and believing you can do something worthwhile that will definitely help overcome obstacles. Stop asking yourself if you have time to do something or feel good enough to do it. If you knew it was right when you had the original thought, just go ahead and take control by using your will. By the way, do not allow anyone to meddle with your will or you try and undermine someone else's will. It is the power of will which pushes us ahead.

Are You Experiencing Unbalance?

It is common for someone in pain to want the pain removed. We can undo the knots which tie us to certain conditions when we discover the cause. Cause is usually created through our neglect or ignorance of spiritual as well as physical matters. It is a matter of opinion as to which is worse...physical or spiritual cause. A few spiritual causes are emotional instability, old guilt, mental congestion, low sense of self-worth, trauma to the mind and feeling nature and entity attachments. Physical causes are more obvious. Eating foods, drinks and other products that we know are not good for our body or mind is a big influence. Trauma of any kind, congestion, chemical and environmental poisons, infection are some of the reasons that come quickly to mind.

Today, the word responsibility is practically being shouted at all of us. If you have not taken responsibility for your own balance of body, mind and soul, don't plan on any one else doing it for you. Prevention of illness on any level is totally up to us. It is never too late. It is helpful to start the day with a mantra or communion that will create a positive attitude. Today being Wednesday, I will give you a Wednesday suggestion from the Essene Tree of Life morning communions. Repeat this mantra as long as it feels right for you: Angel of the Sun, enter my solar center (plexus) and give the fire of life to my whole body. (Solar Rays)
What you are doing in essence is asking for more of God's Light to enter your body.

Do you ever think about how our body is a miracle in itself? Every day it smoothly does it work if we do not interfere with negative thoughts and actions. I discuss this throughout my latest book, Be-Embracing the Mystery. For the different functions of the body to keep running, we are expected to maintain mental and spiritual health. Most of us ignore the warning signs. For instance, negative thought forms can actually change the body from a state of health to disease and the reverse holds true with positive thought forms. You probably have heard this truth hundreds of times but do you remember to apply what you have heard? The pituitary gland with hypothalamus is the connector between intellect-emotion and body functions. It is your switch and must be kept balanced. Use your mind and its understanding to heal yourself.

Stop neglecting the possibilities of the mind. Discipline your mind to remember to actively use the Creative Energy within. Neglecting either the mind or spirit creates unbalance in the physical body. There are inexpensive tools that will help obtain spiritual balance. Try singing, humming, reciting an inspirational poem or message, walking, loving nature and learning to laugh at your self and at little things in life. The best tool you already have is will power. Use it to change your present situation. Listen to your heart and it will give you direction. Don't wait until next week or month. Analyze your situation thoroughly and use your understanding to create balance in mind and body. Translate your hopes and desires to meet the needs of your life. With the new changes coming, it is up to us to allow ourselves to be happy and finish the job we came here to do.

Change

Whether you believe in angels or not, they are definitely among us. The energy has shifted and everyone of us will be affected according to our consciousness and determination. Today, many of us are occupied with viewing an amazing event take place in Washington.D.C. Humanity is watching and so are those from the subtle planes and other worlds of Light who care. This afternoon, I am going to do something different. There is a Dr. Kilstein who offers a Finger Healing technique for every type of situation. The following quote is his finger healing technique suggestion that will help you comfortably handle change.

"Like his slogan, President Obama is promising to bring "Change." Change can be scary. We fear the unknown when we can't predict what's coming next. But all changes, whether personal, national, or otherwise, have the potential to bring good things. So when a big change happens in your life, it always helps to think about all the good things this change will bring. Here's a great finger healing for Change, to help you look forward to and welcome change:

Sit comfortably with your back straight but not stiff. Fold your fingers into fists, with your fingertips pressing on the upper pads of the hands. Press the backs of your hands together at the knuckles. Extend your thumbs and touch them at the tips. Hold your hands in front of your navel, with your thumbs pointing slightly upward toward your heart. Breathe long, deep, and slow. Hold this position for three minutes, while concentrating on the energy in your hands. And remember, when change comes (and it will), be prepared for it by using your finger healing technique. As a matter of fact, if you are looking for things to change...If you want to be happier, wealthier, or find love...Or you're stuck in a rough patch and want to pick yourself up, why not test drive this suggestion today?

Fear of the Unknown

The other day I was watching a neighbor walking in extreme pain. Her husband was doing his best to help her climb the stairs to their third floor condo. It turns out that somehow she had injured her one kneecap three weeks previously. Tests showed nothing. I decided to call her and offer my services. In this case, it meant a free healing touch session to relieve the pain and remove the source of the pain. The woman actually became alarmed and never had heard of what I referred to as energy work. I told her that in religious terms the offer could be called laying on of hands. She had never heard of energy work and the idea of laying on of my hands to the affected area really shook her composure. She had been in excruciating pain for three weeks and still turned me down. To her credit, the woman said to let her think about it. Well, the neighbor never called me back. It makes you wonder about fear and its origin.

Offering to help someone whether you know them or not is offering unconditional love without any strings attached. It is as if a good part of the world's population is ruled by a universal hypnotism of what they should and should not do. In my understanding, universal mesmerism or hypnotism is a belief that one is separated from God. Too many people continue to believe that suffering must continue and refuse to be open to alternative methods that will shift them towards wholeness. If so, I could say this woman and others like her are victims to a false universal belief. We cannot force understanding or acceptance on another.

Something new, different thoughts, need to be introduced into her mind that will stop world beliefs from clinging to her consciousness. She and others need to hear and accept that the nature of their being is God. Every part of us is the nature of God. What do we do when we try to bring out the good in a plant, animal or child for instance? We love and bless it. When I help people with healing, I know with certainty that I am dealing with the individuals misapprehension of reality. The human mind and its belief in two powers is the culprit. The secret of healing is recognizing a higher Energy, which is the Divine, God, Holy Spirit or whatever name you call the One Creator. God is an experience and not a word. This woman really could use an experience of grace. Grace would change her life. Hypnotism ceases when we enter the stillness and finally understand what is real.

Super Beings

The doctrine that God can be incarnated in human form is found in most of the principal historic expositions--in Hinduism, in Mahayana Buddhism, in Christianity and in the Mohammedanism of the Sufis. I will share a quote from the Bhagavad Gita.
"When goodness grows weak, when evil increases, I make myself a body. In every Age I come back to deliver the holy, to destroy the sin of the sinner, to establish righteousness. He who knows the nature of My task and My holy birth is not reborn. When He leaves this body: He comes to Me. Flying from fear, from lust and anger, He hides in Me, His refuge and safety. Burnt clean in the blaze of My being. In Me, many find home". Yes, we can! Every human being can become an Avatar. He or she needs to be shown the way and helped by divine grace. The Godhead assumes the form of an ordinary human being, who has through effort and instruction, love, willingness and patience earned a one-pointed awareness...enlightenment.

I interpret this quote to mean that one Avatar, super being, will make an appearance upon the stage of history when enough of the collective consciousness is ready for another boost. Usually, these beings are channels of grace and divine power who through example encourage us to adopt the process where we allow our hearts to unfold and our minds expand. In other words, to learn to love one another, which is a spiritual love and to love ourselves. Before a human can be Christlike and identify with the Father-Mother God Ideal, we must begin to imitate what we believe in. Enlightenment and understanding and living our spiritual identity is a requirement in our eventual state of mind called super beings. When not enlightened, Buddhas, Christs and other names that refer to Masters of matter and the little self are no other than ordinary beings. When there is enlightenment, ordinary beings transform into Buddhas. This is our earth assignment.

Most of us have admired super men and women since we were children. As adults this could be why so many of the hero and heroine television shows, movies and books are so popular. It would be fantastic to be able to help and save people. As a child, I loved Wonder Woman. Last year, I went on the Internet found and purchased my own red long sleeved Wonder Woman tee shirt. A blazing picture of the heroine sits smack on my chest. I have never worn the shirt out in public but I smilingly know that the special shirt is sitting on the shelf in my closet. Why not be a hero or heroine? We are all made of light, beauty and inner power. Scripture repeatedly reminds us that the supra normal is our real identity.

The New Man

The scriptures say of human beings that there is an outward man and along with him an inner man. Within us all is the other person, the inner man, whom the Scripture calls the new man, the heavenly man, the young person, the friend, the aristocrat. The seed of God is in us. To quote from Eckhart you will read that the seed of God is in us. "Given an intelligent and hardworking farmer, it will thrive and grow up to God, whose seed it is; and accordingly its fruits will be God-nature. Pear seeds grow into pear trees, nut seeds into nut trees, and God seed into God."

Human beings have free will and we are at liberty to identify with whatever pleases us. This amazing ability to choose our interests creates who we believe we are. The average person may act one way all their life but when a serious illness personally happens to him, he behaves very different. He could have lived a life of fear and then when he realizes he is dying become serene and God centered. For some people, it is easier to behave selflessly in a time of crisis that when life appears normal. The difference between a saint for instance and a typical human is that the saint is one who knows that very moment of our human life is a moment of crisis.

Now, why would that be? It has to do with personal choice. Every day challenges or opportunities present themselves to us. How we respond determines whether we are moving closer to darkness, which is ignorance or opening to radiant light and life. The goal of human life is to finally arrive at a state of consciousness where there are no longer any God-eclipsing obstacles between what we think and believe we are and the Divine Reality. The aim is to be constantly and consciously aware of our spiritual identity and purpose as a lover of God regardless of what is going on around us or directed at us. To understand the words I write and live them is a form of spiritual training that eventually leads us to transcend the human personality and state of ourselves that we are not a man or woman and answer instead, we are a Buddha, Christ or whatever exalted title you prefer to use to describe your state of being as an awakened and new man. This may sound preposterous to some who read this. Get used to it. It is truth.
