TRUST YOURSELF

This is crucial, particularly if you find yourself in a vulnerable position, if you are suffering, if you are looking for healing, if you are looking for things to help your personal growth and particularly if you are looking for paths to help your spiritual growth.

You need to trust your guts and think with your head. You are your guru, only you are. Nobody else knows what is right and good and true for you, and nobody has your truth and your answers. You choose your values and code of conduct and stick to that, no matter how other people criticize you.

I have been extremely fortunate to meet two quite extraordinary techniques, Release Technique and Sedona Method, from the teaching of a quite extraordinary person, Lester Levenson. They are a path of healing and personal and spiritual growth. And from them one discovers the spiritual truth by oneself, simply by quieting the mind.

You see, to find healing, personal growth and spiritual growth, all you need to do is let go of the ego/mind, that is the same as saying programs. Programs are beliefs, emotions, thoughts, wantings. When you let them go you find peace, the mind quiets down and at the same time you connect with the ever present sea of wisdom and you find YOUR OWN ANWERS. You do not need to substitute a belief with a new one, wisdom will emerge by itself if you just allow it.

Please do take good care of yourself and think with your head.

Quote from I Ching

“It is only when we have
the courage to face things
exactly as they are
without any self-deception
or illusion
that a light will develop
out of events
by which the path to success
may be recognized”
–I Ching

Excerpt from “A New Earth” by Eckhart Tolle

“So when you are alert and contemplate a flower, crystal, or bird without naming it mentally, it becomes a window for you into the formless. There is an inner opening, however slight, into the realm of spirit. This is why these three “en-lightened” life-forms have played such an important part in the evolution of human consciousness since ancient times; why, for example, the jewel in the lotus flower is a central symbol of Buddhism and a white bird, the dove, signifies the Holy Spirit in Christianity. They have been preparing the ground for a more profound shift in planetary consciousness that is destined to take place in the human species. This is the spiritual awakening that we are beginning to witness now.” - Excerpt from “A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose” by Eckhart Tolle

Inspiration - “This Being Human …”

The Guest House

This being human is a guest house.

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness

Some momentary awareness comes

As an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!

Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,

Who violently sweep your house

empty of its furniture,

still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be clearing you out

For some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,

Meet them at the door laughing,

And invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,

Because each has been sent

As a guide from beyond.

- Rumi

Love Is The Answer

Are you aware of the consciousness of your country?

Your consciousness creates your reality.

Your consciousness is your beliefs, thoughts, emotions, have tos, etc. mainly subconscious. Now, your country highly influences your consciousness and it could be that it is causing your unhappiness, if you have not freed from it.

Let’s do an example. I am Italian and one set of beliefs from the Italian culture is to ‘tolerate’ in the negative sense, which means to put up with situations, people, that are causing you pain and suffering, to put up with abuse, to put up with crap. One ’should’ look at the positive in another person even if it is abusive, even if it has nothing to do with love. It has to do with sacrifice, and carrying ‘one’s cross’. It also means not going for one’s dream, not following one’s heart, not risking, not being the best one can be, not living the life one would truly want in their heart. It means playing down and stay where one is. This set of beliefs causes fear, anger and frustration to people. People act with the best of intentions, not being aware of the suffering this set of beliefs causes. Do you see how much suffering this set of beliefs can cause people if they are not aware and freed from it?

What about your culture? Begin becoming aware of which beliefs are not helpful to you, for your happiness, and let them go.

Sometimes when people realize that the belief system of their culture is causing them suffering, they become rebel. That is not the way and that does not work.

What you need to do is free from them and become what you are. Follow your inner compass, your values and code of conduct and your heart.

Thank you.

Do you want to change the world?

Then you need to embrace it, embrace it all.

Everything you see in the world, what you like and what you do not like, what you resist and maybe want to change, it is in you.
Everything that has happened and is happening in your life, it is in you.
Every problem with people, it is in you.
Every quality you see in people, qualities you like and qualities you do not like, they are all in you.
Everything that other people have done or are doing to you, it is in you.
Everything you do not like in yourself, things you have done or you haven’t done, every negative feelings or thoughts, it is of course in you.

It is certainly not who you are, but they are part of you and unless you embrace it, you embrace it all, and love it fully and completely and let it go, you will not heal yourself, you will not heal the world.

As you heal yourself, you bring about healing in the world.

“Moment of Surrender”

Perhaps first you can enjoy this video … http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3B-oHx2uWQ - yes, I am a big fan of the U2!

We are living in critical times, and all the negativity is coming up in order for humanity to heal and evolve. Have you chosen the Light yet? Sometimes we need to choose the Light again and again, and when we do, somehow our reality is immediately transfigured. We know we are going to be helped.

Sciences are now becoming closer and closer with spirituality, with something that some call Consciousness, something that pervades everything and everyone, that is beyond ‘reality’, that is the Source of all Life, of which you are part of, and something more …

When we let go and let God, when we surrender to God maybe because we cannot manage any more, we find peace.

“Do not let people grind you down …”

This is from a song of the U2, actually they use a little stronger word …

This means do not listen to people who criticize you, who tries to put you down just because they do not feel good about themselves or simply have different beliefs.

You need to free from all the conditioning, conditioning which can come from culture, religion, upbringing, peers, society, television, etc.

You need to find the freedom to be yourself because you are the way you are, because you are magnificent just because you are the way you are. Yes, there may be faults or things to heal, but we do not heal ourselves by putting ourselves down, by beating ourselves up. Do we ever heal a wound by beating it up with a stick? Certainly not.

Also, the people who criticize you in your life, you have attracted them to you maybe because you feel bad about yourself, maybe because you feel you cannot choose the people in your life, maybe because you resist them, or else. We create our reality, it is in you, and so you need to let go within yourself that which created that situation and choose what you want instead, and love them.

And love yourself, and love yourself some more, and a little more …
