Finding Love
Love and light are the biggest forces in the planet. If you look beneath the physical form, you’ll always see a light body, which responds to love. Love comes in two forms—human and spiritual. With human love, there is the experience of ups and downs, highs and lows, and a series of swings of polarity, which relate to the personality.
With universal love, it is unconditional. You receive as much as you can absorb. The duality of the human condition may make it feel as though it occurs differently at various times, but this relates more to the intricacy of moods, beliefs, and placement of consciousness. The experience of receiving unconditional, universal love is often known as “being” in the Garden, the original inception of human consciousness, which lacks duality and brings wholeness.
Regardless, the experience of universal love lifts your consciousness above human concerns; it provides solutions and insights. The light itself acts as a barrier to the realm of lower consciousness and the thoughts of others. Unconditional love also clears and mitigates memories.
Every child comes into the world with a “cloud of glory” (Wordsworth.) They see life through new, clean eyes without glasses of experience. Part of the spiritual quest is re-discovering the inner self, which continues to seek this palace of loveliness.
The Human Experience
Oddly, spiritual epiphanies and experiences teach about the placement of the mind and emotions with negativity. Part of the spiritual journey involves rewriting this patterns and seeing life with a more positive perspective.
The object of the lens of the focus of the mind always expands. It moves to the forefront and compels the attention of the mind. If everyone focused on love, happiness, and fulfillment for one hour each day, the world would change quite wonderfully. In the meanwhile, it’s helpful to focus on the goodness in life and the incredible realm of possibility in the next few years as more human beings join together in higher consciousness.
The Translation
Meditation and spiritual practices are the best forms of communion for feeling the spiritual self. From this placement of consciousness, insights and information are given. Light is provided for the spiritual journey. Gestalt realizations flash, and it’s possible to feel the right direction for the next step.
With relationships, it’s important to remember how everyone is programmed negatively. Everyone holds expectations, beliefs, and habits, which impede relationships. It’s possible to ask the universe for truth, which underlies conflicts. (Many people simply want or need energy. Some conflicts are tests, involving our boundaries, and some people leave when a person’s spiritual energy soars. These are facts, which can teach a great deal.)
By rewriting inner programming, it’s possible to change a great deal. The practice of sending light to a person’s higher self, seeing a conflict as resolved, or asking for insights can change relationships. There is a human tendency for repetition. By recognizing the pattern of repeating conflict in the mind and ending it, this opens a door for new interaction. (Take time to notice how patterns repeat.)
It’s also possible to pull energy back from a conflict or upset. Everyone colors events with energy. By pulling it back into the self (or refusing to identify with the other person’s energy), the conflict often fades. Refusing to identify with lower emotions and seeking a solution can often move difficulties into a place of love.
Love is a higher frequency, which doesn’t feel the conflicts described above. Loving the self means having boundaries, taking steps to change things, and learning to use the inner voice. It’s a process, which involves finding the inner truth and expressing it in “real” life. It’s also possible to visualize and experience a desire and create it.
Loving the self is one of the greatest challenges of spiritual work. It’s a razor’s edge because it’s necessary to see personal weaknesses to change the course of life. It’s also necessary to love all of the self—the good and bad, weak and strong, and dark and light—because all of these things are aspects of the entire being.
Simple Exercises for Change (and more Love)
The Body
Loving your body is important. It’s as important as diet, exercise, or routines. It’s quite different to exercise or eat well from the point of view of loving the self. It’s much more positive than routines to change the body out of “dislike.” As you move into love, you’ll discover beliefs about yourself. More importantly, you’ll effortlessly make changes if you stay with the meditations and inner work.
1) In meditation, visualize yourself on your best days. How do you look? What do you wear? How does your body feel? What do you like about you? Hold the picture and imagine you look and feel this way NOW. You can hold the feeling if you have difficulty with the image.
2) Whenever you look into the mirror, project pink light to any part of yourself that you don’t like. That’s right. Stop sending negative energy.
3) Hold the following image often. See yourself becoming younger or whatever you want to become. Imagine wearing looser pants, having larger muscles, or feeling more fit. Imagine a healthy, happy feeling. Change anything you don’t like by seeing a smaller waist, smoother skin or thicker hair. Catch your thoughts and change them. Return to love.
Relationships
Everyone describes the happiest parts of life as times of giving and receiving love in a balanced way. Love helps in seeing the beauty in the world.
1) With relationships, focus on the feeling you want to experience. It’s helpful to recall happy memories or people who appreciate you. If you could receive love in any form, how would you describe the feeling?
2) Focus on the feeling until it becomes very “real.” Create images around the feeling.
3) Focus on the feeling and images whenever you want to experience love. (Send love or pink light to any feelings or thoughts, which go in the opposite direction.)
Often, we focus on the feeling of “not” having a specific quality or how others make us badly. Unknowingly, we attract more of what we don’t want. It’s helpful to think about pink light in the heart space and the universe’s capacity to give infinitely. Also, it’s better to think about receiving what we do want as a sensation with specific experiences.
Prosperity
Every manifestation is different, but they all involve visualization and inviting new feelings into your life. It’s helpful to practice this in “levels” or small steps.
1) Take your present income up to a higher level in visualization. Choose a believable increase and imagine experiencing this improvement in your life.
2) Review your new purchases, a greater level of comfort, and independence. Revisit this image often and replace the old images with the new ones.
3) Intensely feel the sensation of relief and happiness. See your newfound prosperity provide time to relaxation and spiritual interests.
Loving the self involves seeing life differently. It revolves around feeling energy, changing habitual and lower imagery, and creating a life more in keeping with the inner self. It is also about learning to substitute the powerful, soft feeling of love for negativity. It is how everyone joins together to create a world on a higher vibration.
