Seeing from a higher perspective.
In the 1970’s there was a gospel pop song, which became #2 on the billboard charts, it was by Gene MacLellan and called “Put Your Hand in the Hand”. I heard that song this morning in my head and was reminded of a particular line in the song that goes, “Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently”. It reminded me of a quote from Dr. Wayne Dyer that goes, ” When you change the way you look at things. The things you look at change.” They don’t actually change, it is your perception of them which is changing.
“The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.”
— Carl Jung, Aion (1951)
We all have learned thoughts, beliefs, opinions, judgments about how to act and think, which guide our life. Some call it the inner parent and others the shadow self. We all have said or done things, or even had thoughts that we immediately or later say, why did I think, do or say that. It makes us feel guilty. In order to be the good child/person, we believe we are, we put it away in a box, and it becomes as a shadow.
However, occassionally we will see this same action or words manifesting through another and it repels us. We find ourselves, either retaliating, getting angry or avoiding this person because we are judging them and their actions as incorrect behavior. Yet, within us we know we have done the same thing, if we only acknowledge it ,and that is why it bothers us so much. A part of us says, “So that is how others saw me” and we stuff that image even lower into the box of shadows. On the other hand, we can address it, release and transform the energy.
That is the point when you look at youself and you can see others differently. You will have begun the process of seeing your actions and their actions from a higher perspective. Once we are able to transform and release these old patterns of behavior, the way we look at that same action or words coming from another, we will now view with compassion for the pain within them which brought this forth. Once it no longer bothers us, we are free. For when we see another who is angry, judgmental, lashing out at others, physically or verbally, we no longer react from a place of learned behavior, but we can allow them their emotions, while introducing compassionate energy that will dissipate the emotional reactions and actions, for one cannot carry on a disagreement or argument if no one wants to argue.
Yes, I know this doesn’t apply to war or physical violence and abuse actions. For this I will share a writing by Carl Sandburg, in 1936
The little girl saw her first troop parade and asked,
“What are those?”
“Soldiers.”
“What are soldiers?”
“They are for war. They fight and each tries to kill as many of the other side as he can.”
The girl held still and studied.
“Do you know … I know something?”
“Yes, what is it you know?”
“Sometime they’ll give a war and nobody will come.”
This was later changed in the 1960, era of peace and love, to “What if they gave a war and nobody came.”
Physical and emotional violence and abuse come from many differing sources. Mental and physical abuse and imbalances they have or have experienced in their lives, which leave one unable to control their impulses without medication or forced restraint Perhaps, they have suffered the same in their early childhood and it has become a learned behavior which is acceptable to them. I know it is more complicated and many factors come into the problems, but this is an essence.
Abuse, violence and war are a need for control and power for ones who either feel powerless or they believe they are entitled to hold power and control over others due to their learned rules of what is ethical.
We cannot change another person, we can only look at ourselves and our issues and face them, release them and transform them. When we are no longer adding to the extreme energies of pain and control in the world, we can begin to send love and the violet flame to transform the energies around the world in order to provide breathing space for others to look at what they are doing. We can ask that the Hosts and myriads of Light Beings come in and bring transformational energies into the world to help relieve the pain and suffering caused by unbalanced thoughts, emotions and actions if ones choose to accept their help.
Many think of Archangel Michael as a soldier who kills those who don’t do what God says. In actuality, He is the bringer of DIVINE TRUTH. The sword he carries is the sword of TRUTH. When we are surrounded in TRUTH and LOVE, not shall stand before us in order to harm us.
Once I was taken in meditation by Archangel Michael to a planet in another star system of our Universe. Archangel Michael has been with me all my life. As we stood upon the planet he asked me if I remembered being there with him before. I looked around and suddenly I had a memory of walking with him, and we were radiating Love, Light, Compassion and carrying the Swords of Truth. We did not fight a single being, we simply sent forth these divine energies and spoke the Truth to others. Sharing compassion and help as ones were open, we allowed the Violet Fire of transformation to heal the planet and set the people free. Then a point came where they could do this for themselves and they transformed and freed their world.
I seemed to have gotten side tracked a bit, but not in actuality. All that we see in the world which bothers us is because there is something within us to which we need to look, balance and transform. Otherwise , we would see all the world with the eyes of innocent perception, meaning that all we see and experience in this world is a lesson to be learned for ourselves or another. Often we have come to play the protagonist, agreeing to do so, in order that others can be set free from their judgments and imbalances.
All that exists is part of the Creator which is love, some call this essence adamantine particles. What happened with Archangel Michael was not about loving those who we were the protagonists upon that planet, but to be the Essence of Creation, Love and Being One with the Source of Love the Creator. When Jesus told people to Love their enemies he did not mean they should become weak or passive, but to learn to become who we truly are a part of the Creator, who is the Essence of Creation, Love. Love is not about desires and pleasures, it is about the Essence of Creation, becoming one with it and then the energy of Creation is at your command.
You could turn around a storm by Being the Essence of Love, which would bring you into Unity with the Essence of the Storm and then command it. There is a story in one of the Volumes of “The Life and Teachings of the Masters of the Fart East”, I believe it is volume 3. The essence of the story is that Jesus was at a monastery in a town studying and teaching, during his missing years. Suddenly the town’s people became upset and were running in fear. When he asked what was wrong he was told that the hordes (mongol forces) were coming to loot and destroy the village. Jesus told the people not to fear and he walked to the edge of the cliff where the horde were coming through a pass to climb to the village. When he saw them he raised his hand and the horses bolted, throwing off the riders who fled in fear. He was radiating the essence of Divine Love, no horrible energy of destruction, but when their duality of anger came upon the essence of love, it was like an inpenatrable wall they could not cross.
This brings me back to the words of the young girl, “Sometime they’ll give a war and no one will come.” I read a remark about this quote where someone said that we had to go to war to prevent it from coming to us. Why. because we live in a world of duality and we believe that without guns and instruments of destruction and warriors to fight we will all be killed, so let us kill them first. The truth is that as long as you believe that, you remain powerless and that is your truth.
The moment you step into love, and unity with the Essence and Creator, you can command the elements for you are one with them. You are protected and you have no need to fear another, for they cannot harm you.
“The only thing we have to fear, is fear istself. ” Franklin D Roosevelt
Fear is learned behavior which keeps us limited by our beliefs. When we “LET GO” and Let the Divine within us manifest, we have nothing to fear. We have no need to get mad, to judge another, to abuse or kill for we understand that if they knew better they would not do that which they are doing.
Thus we first must change our perceptions, release and transform our shadows. We do not need fear to face them for they are a part of you that has tried to keep you safe in a dualistic world as best they could. Know you simply need to love them and help those thoughts and beliefs to let go of a need to fear and control. Then as you perceive these traits in others you will come to understand, ‘There but for the Grace of the Creator was I”. Then be love and thankful for now I AM One with the Essence of all LIfe.
Divine Grace is the divine influence which when we turn within for our guidance and direction instead of without, grace operates to transform us, guide us, sanctify our impulses to be more loving and gives us strength to face all challenges with Loving understanding from a higher perspective.
The other part of ourselves that created the shadow is the inner parent or authority figure. All that we believe, our fears and judgments are learned and instilled within us by our parents and authority figures to whom we gave that right to tell us how to think, act and believe. We need to look at those aspects and to take back authority for ourselves and our intent and initative of actions. This restores this authority and initiative to the I AM essence of the Creator who is within us and whom we truly are not the physical body and rational mind. They are merely the tools through which we entered to operate in this world, and are meant to serve the direction and authority of our soul, our I AM Presence, that which is the Essence of Love and Unity with all Life.
So all that we experience is a reflection on the outer of that which exists within us. When we no longer wish to experience the same old thing it is time to look within at ourselves, and begin the process of releasing the past and loving the Essence of who we truly are.
“As a person loves, so they are. As a person believes so they become.”
