Discerning Truth: Overcoming Fear in Your Spiritual Path

Here we see a person covering their eyes and not wanting to look at their reflection in the mirror for they are afraid of what they might see. Yet, we can see behind them in the mirror the reflection of who they truly are is a Being of Light. If only they had the courage to take off the blinders and look.

You will often find a theme repeated upon this blog because it is important to keep searching and looking at certain aspects of our lives and spiritual growth. In this time on Earth we see DIVINE TRUTH is an illusive commodity. Truth from a relative perspective is running rampant. The majority of people that speak on a topic believe that what they say or share is truth. However, it is relative to their level of wisdom, love, compassion and understanding of the Divine. It is shadowed by their beliefs, learned concepts, societal standards and what they are seeking to gain, their ego concepts.

There are some who simply lie because that is their means of gaining what they want and controlling others. They have no conscience about it and they care not who is hurt in the process as long as they obtain what they want.

However, the decision as to what to believe lies within US individually. It would be nice if like long ago everyone could read the thoughts, energies and intentions of others, and all lived aligned to their Higher Self and in Unity. Then we would not when someone was not being truthful for the highest good of all but for personal benefit. Unfortunately, that is not the case , ‘yet’ upon the Earth. So we must learn to discern what feels right for us. Perhaps, what feels right for you does not feel right for me, but that is because we are on individual paths to enlightenment and so we must learn to allow the other their perspective.

There are blurred lines, we cannot know until we have reached enlightenment. Did this person or myself choose to be a vessel whereby another person is able to learn a lesson or clear karma. Before we entered did we contract to be hurt, or to hurt another in order for this to be accomplished. As I said until we are aligned with the Oneness and Enlightened we can only walk the path one step at a time, living by what we believe to be right and true at this point in our lives and journey.

However, it is also for us to continue to grow and change. We are here to learn, to clear the old and align to the highest possible point of Being that we can in this life. In order to do this we must be willing to let go of any truth or belief that limits us from changing and growing. We must learn to discern the truths shared by others as to if they are of benefit for our growth. Usually, I find that if it is good, I easily align to it and feel calm, peaceful and almost embraced by the energy. When it is not a truth for me, I feel uneasy, restless and want to move away.

Now there are times when their truth may be a higher truth and challenging my limited beliefs so that I may transform and release them. That is where the time of stillness to go within and align so that I can ask for guidance is of importance. The answer for each of us lies within. What may be a Higher Truth might be something for which we are not ready at this moment in time. Don’t reject it as something you have decided you will never accept in your life. Simply put it away and ask that if it is of your highest good that you be shown. That what is limiting your acceptance and belief be released and transformed. Ask also that if this is not of the highest good for you , that you be given a sign and that peace return to you. Then simply let it go until you feel or hear the answer. It will come or the thought will leave you until the time is right.

Fear is the greatest block to Higher Truth and can trap us into believing the truth of another that is not for our highest good. Yet, sometimes something that creates fear within us is asking us to step into the unknown realms and to trust our inner guidance that all will be well. I was reminded of three things as I write this first that the acorn is filled with promise. It might seem like just a seed that can be cast aside, but within it lies the promise of a mighty oak tree. When it is planted in fertile soil, given water to soften the shell and the warmth of the sun to crack open the shell, it will begin to sprout its roots and stem to punch through the earth and start its journey upward.

The oak in Druidic tradition is a symbol of Truth, strength and protection. It also symbolized power, endurance, justice and brought many spiritual, medicinal and physical uses to the people.

Then there is the Sword of Truth which is what Archangel Michael Carries it is not a sword of killing or destruction. When one receives and holds the Sword of Truth it helps you to see the truth in life and to not judge what you are show. As you visualize holding it upright when you speak or hear truth it will shine brightly if it is in the presence of untruth its light will dim.

The third to look at was the mirror, which reflects back to us that which is that which is truthful even if it is not exactly what we wish to see or hear. People can be mirrors to show us what is pure and truthful within us or that which is of the ego and shadow. It is what we see in others that is reflecting back to us that which is within us.

In this time of change, we will see much truth and untruth as the veils of illusion begin to fall. Be prepared to hold your sword and seek it’s guidance as to how to align and what is truth. Clear that within you that is reflected back by others which you do not embrace or feel is truth, light, love and compassion. Also, know that you are a sprouting acorn climbing higher and higher to be the powerful Being of Light that you truly are inside.

Remember truth is relative, be ready to grow and understand higher Truth. Higher Truth is eternal, it is part of the Creational Laws of existence. Know you are growing, learning and changing. Continue on your path, seek your inner alignment and know you are loved always.

Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door will be opened. Ask and the TRUTH will be given.

Namaste

Reflection-Clarity

Understanding reflection allows us to find clarity.

When we find ourselves upset, angry or irritated by the words or actions of another it is because they are reflecting back to us an energy that still exists within us and needs to be cleared. You may say, “Wait a minute. What about people who are judgmental or prejudice? I am not either of those.” In the fact that you are judging another to be judgmental means that energy is still within you in some form. You may not have the exact same beliefs, words or actions but there is some form of energy blockage within you. Every blockage of energy within us is an anchor that keeps us from being free.

If not then their energies would not cause a reaction in you, and instead you would begin to bring in energies of release, healing and transformation into the situation to help them and others who have the same energy. You would have understanding and compassion for them as a part of God with experiences and beliefs which are still affecting them in their thoughts and actions. 

For instance, someone may see a homeless person and speak of them as lazy, or drug addicts, disgusting or mentally unbalanced. Why, perhaps as they grew up they were taught that our worth is based on how hard we work, how much money we make and the things we own. Someone who has fallen upon hard times or had life altering experiences which has created this life situation is beyond their learned understanding. The person who judges them, may also fear that if they don’t work hard enough they could be in that situation. That just being them is not good enough. 

So you have judged them for their lack of understanding or fear reaction which had caused them to judge another. When we are clear of this energy of judgment,or whatever the energy of the situation may be, we can hear or see their reaction and we have understanding and compassion for them as well as the ones about whom they are speaking and reacting. We have no blockages and so their fear, anger or reaction flows through us instead of triggering us. Instead we think of how we can help in this situation to release and transform the energies and be of service. 

Remember that all that exists is part of the Creator Source and so all is linked together and part of each other. What we do, say or feel about another we are doing unto ourselves or a part of ourselves and Creator Source. What we can clear from ourselves, releasing and transforming, we clear from mass consciousness. This is making it easier and setting a pattern for others to release and transform. All life is linked upon Earth within the Creational Matrix of Earth. Through our thoughts and beliefs we create our perceived existence. When we clear something within ourselves it takes that energy out of mass consciousness making it easier for others to be free.

Updated comment: I would like to add a few thoughts that Jesus wanted to say in regard to this. He reminded me of a concept he spoke of in “Love without End” by Glenda Green. He called it ‘innocent perception’. It is what children do naturally, they look at a person or situation or even a landscape before them and they see it without preconceived ideas of how it should be or creating a story about why it is as it appears. They simply see and accept. Animals do this also. I am not trying to compare children to animals, just the concept of innocent perception comes with ‘innocence’ of non beliefs and learned concepts of an idealized way of being or doing. When we let go of the blocked energies, beliefs and patterns of taught idealized behavior which is acceptable, we come down to realizing all is exactly as it needs to be in that moment in time. Each person is learning and experiencing exactly what they need to grow. So why should we use healing prayers for them. Because the energies on earth are so dense, that they have difficulty breaking through to even contemplate another way of seeing, believing and doing. If we can clear some of the dense energies in the mass consciousness, they can perhaps have an AHA moment. If not now then later. When we clear anything for ourselves or within the grids of the planet, we make a difference in what is available for ones to access.

We are seeing them exactly as they are without judging, just observing. We see an energy that can be cleared to help others and we work with it. We are reminded to daily attempt to see things with innocent perception. We can begin by affirm and strengthen the positive energies within us through gratitude (thank you)and to release the negative energies through forgiveness (I’m Sorry, Please forgive me) and practice love, compassion and understanding for all life. For we would all do better if we knew how to do better. and that is why the prayers and calling in of the violet flame can make it easier for other to release the patterns and blockaged that hold them back.

The ho’oponopono healing prayer of reconciliation and is a good process to understand and use in this situation. It goes –

I’m Sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you.

I want to explain a bit what each part means to me so that you can understand it more fully. Then in a situation where you see you might be able to help release energies you can simply say these words to yourself, and understand the meaning.

I’m sorry – is about understanding in our oneness that we can hurt another part of ourselves and Creator Source. In so doing and we need to clear these energies for us and the others involved to be free. I’m sorry that a part of me has hurt another part of myself. 

Please forgive me -In asking for forgiveness for ourselves and others for the energies, beliefs and actions which have or are occurring, we allow for the process of forgiveness and release to begin for all. For we are part of the Creator experiencing and expanding as are all others and what we do for ourselves we do for all.

Thank you – is knowing that as we are all one, when we are sorry and ask for forgiveness in the whole, the Source always loves us and we are always forgiven. We can be thankful also for the learning experiencing and a chance to be of service.

I love you – Love of the Creator, ourselves and all others. Love is the essence of being and existence. I know that as we gain wisdom we would not knowingly do or say anything to hurt another. It is only in our confusion or lack of clarity and understanding that we do so. When one feels love they are released and transformed. In loving them we send love from our heart to their heart and help them to be uplifted.

Thus ,in understanding what the prayer means in a situation you can begin to say the words and know within you automatically the meaning. Helping to transform and release not just the immediate situation, but the energy within mass consciousness for everyone trapped by this control mechanism. 

You become the change you wish to see in the world with clarity.
