When you are just about to burst into a negative reaction over what someone else is doing –stop just for a moment –and think about all the times you have done that very same thing.
It’s time to set aside the strife and step into a higher frequency.
The frequency of the heart –love –sends out its messages regardless of what it encounters. Could you do that? Could you open up your heart center and let it expand in all directions –when you feel tempted to judge; condemn; or close up in fear? That’s the challenge – will we accept it?
PS it’s not about rejecting any part of ourselves, but integrating it into a whole – allowing awareness of all – allowing love and forgiveness to melt it all into a coherent whole – and moving into a resonance of love –expanding –joyful –overcoming –‘love’. Love seeks all.
Every now and then I’ll get an insight which seems to be from the perspective of a Spirit of Rebellion. If nothing else, it certainly is a creative speculation.
As a snake sheds its skin sometimes the old skin can stick around annoyingly before it finally drops off, freeing the snake to go slithering around happily once again. I am not comparing us to snakes but find it a fitting analogy as to how our past hurts/memories can stick around us, making our road to enlightenment seem, at times, impossible. [Memories can also work the other way around, by keeping us trapped in joyful aspects of our pasts; the snare works both ways.]
Contemplation of my own “bad” memories inspired a communication between a ‘voice of reason’ and a ‘spirit of strife’…
While ‘memories’might be dealt with, as suggested above, what about ‘current issues’ – or, our reactions to these current issues – which create our ‘future memories’?
Realizing how a spirit of strife, relating to a certain unresolved situation, keeps interfering with my own spiritual growth, I asked myself the following question:
How do I release myself from this strife…how do I release myself?
(Intuitive / ‘voice of reason’ response)…
By stopping the ‘reactions’.
Trapped in strife reactions – like trapped in a machine with no ‘stop’ button in sight – trapped in regret and fear – not knowing ‘how’ it will play out – fearing the worst. The burden of heartache for having gotten into this situation in the first place; grief for the loss of innocence – the open wound which will not heal, coz I keep ripping off the skin.
Such sadness – such regret – such a snowballing effect – collecting more and more grief as it goes on – ‘STOP’ – melt this ball in the warm light of Awareness –
See no evil.
Hear no evil.
(then).. Speak no evil.
Forgive yourself (myself)
Forgive ‘him’/’her’/’them’…’me’…
‘For’…the mercy I show others, is the mercy I shall receive.
Amen
(Closing thought):
Awareness that you are trapped in this vicious cycle is the first step to releasing it. Understanding the triggers and ‘seeing’ that it is an automatic pattern of repeat…same thing happening over and over again…UNTIL, the driver ‘wakes up’ and notices he (or she) is travelling in a direction he doesn’t really want to go, and chooses a different one.

A diary entry contemplating fear, evil, and our Earthly predicament, turned into a (possible) soul communication between a voice of reason and, a spirit of evil…
Joy of forgiving; no longer needing to hold onto the ‘reason’…the ‘strife’. No longer needing to hold onto…or…finally able to forgive self… through compassion?
“Strife is fun!” (a voice says). Living in the creation ‘we’ created – playing too long in it – forgetting where we come from, or really belong… Where do I/we really belong? (In the heart of my mother’s bosom?)… Where do we really belong? …Right here: where we have always been (?!)
Is there really disharmony in the universe ‘because’ of us?
Is there really disharmony in the universe because of us?
There is strife and unrest.
Is this strife and unrest ‘bad’ or ’wrong’?
Nothing is wrong. Everything is right as it should be…considering all it has been.
Everything Is Everything It Is. Everything Is what It Is…’is’ … ‘si’ (‘Yes’)… Everything is valid…validated.
For the mistaken belief that we separated ourselves from our God. The fear of the unknown – unknowable
What unknown?
The unknown within – deep within
Within what?
Your heart, mind and soul
What is my heart, mind, and soul?
God – portion of God – the pro-claimer of your speech – the (magicians) mustard – the life force remedy
What is life force?
(The unbearable lightness of being)
Unbearable?
Cannot be stopped…
Infinity… (voice now being sucked through a vacuum…trailing…echoing…)
(a DEFIANT SPIRIT OF EVIL resumes ‘conversation’…)
Not ‘knowing’…not having the upper hand on this ‘LIFE’ – drives us INSANE. We must know…we must be ‘God’…we must rule. Those fools who proclaim to have a God we cannot see – we are the ones who must … who must …. (voice trails off)
…We have no one else to rely upon. Why should we believe in a God who does not come down to us – who lets us live in this strife – who allows it to be this way? Do you see my dilemma?
You have no faith in something you cannot see. You have no faith in something which allows the world to be as it is…you have no patience for those in the waiting…
…Your creation is a machine with a mind of its own…Your creation of tit-for-tat. Your creation…
‘My’ creation!? ‘God’ created this! (spoken vilely)
You are God.
(SILENT…STUNTED…PERPLEXED)…“I” am God?
You are God… God’s microcosm. You are an infinitely small GIANT – You are a one subdivided WHOLE. You created your reality. Yes, You.
(self questioning now)…Why was I so blind?
Blinded by unknowing.
Why didn’t I know? …(getting agitated again)
You forgot.
Why did I forget?
You chose a direction which took you furthest away from the point of your being (soul)… sol.
Why did I do that?
Because you could – you took a chance – you went out to play with the creation you had made – and now, the creation has you captive.
Is that really such a ‘bad’ thing?
It depletes your soul – weakens your connection to your sol. And now you are stuck in PATTERNS OF REPEAT (like OCD) Weak…Fearful…Afraid.
What will it take to get out of this (mess) state?
Being unafraid – Let yourself ‘play’ in this light – as dark as it seems – let yourself experience ALL it has to offer you – knowing it is a creation of your soul – something you are ‘imagining’ is happening…all the while knowing from where you come and to where you will return. ‘Where’? Infinite Love and Awareness. Unafraid…you will unravel…uncoil yourself from this “game” of your awareness…and return once again to infinite state of your being. Just Being…bathed in the warm light of knowing – understanding exactly That Which You Are.

Fallen Angel. [Image source]An impulse of reason led to an understanding that ‘we’ are (possibly) the “fallen ones” trying to raise ourselves out of our own quandary. This awareness opened up a somewhat abstract dialogue/soul communication of sorts, between a ‘voice of reason’ and a ‘spirit of evil’…

Soul Communication – October 9, 2017
We are trapped ‘in’ the light…
We are not ‘the’ light.
We are AWARENESS.
We are the “fallen ones”…
I am the fallen one.
I am trapped in the thought I cannot escape.
I am trapped in the thought I cannot escape!
I am trapped in athought I cannot escape.
What thought are you trapped in? (a voice of reason responds)
I had this exhilarating realization one recent morning while making my bed and stricken with fear and uncertainty about end of the world prophecies; natural disasters; terrible news events all going on in the world, and feeling helpless and vulnerable to all of it. In the midst of this fear I suddenly decided to not see it as a scary thing happening ‘to’ us (which keeps us bound in fear), but rather, to see it neither as “good” nor ‘bad’/”evil”, but simply as an expressionofALL THAT IS.
As a result of this insight, I came up with the above affirmation which, if needed, could be used as an strengthening affirmation (in the event of an ascension/rapture process...’if ‘one were to occur)!
