What We Have Foregotten
3
What we have forgotten: Reading a quote this morning I was thinking on what the real meaning of it all is about. "All the wonders you seek are within yourself." ~Sir Thomas Browne”. So many of us in the holistic/healing and even those that do not claim to do any spiritual work, we have all for some reason decided that our happiness and power comes from the appreciation, respect, and love of others. We have cemented our eternal happiness on the appreciation we receive from outside sources.
I hear so much from people in the healing community about the idea of universal consciousness, connection from others and how we must work hard for peace and the connection of many people. The thing is when we do feel peace and when we feel love. Where do we feel it. We do not feel it on the outside we feel it pouring from inside. In the heart, the belly, the mind. Why would you foster a response that is felt within? If we could all move ourselves to the realization that the feeling originates and is felt within the body and mind and hold it there we would be in a better space.
How does this correlate to healing practices and self awareness? I had a teacher a long time ago that told me that before you go to any type of healing work with someone fill yourself with love, fill yourself with healing energy and get your client to do the same thing. That is stronger than anything you can do for the client. When we are in chronic state of self hate or putting others ahead of ourselves we cause our bodies stress. When the body is under stress, it raises the bodies pH balance. As this happens inflammation in side of the body becomes rampant. When this happens over a prolonged period of time, the body starts to manifest many forms of dis-ease. Inflammation in the body is a result of the immune system and if we take a moment what are some of the most prevent dis-eases in the world today? Autoimmune!!
Making sure that your care for anyone, anything is never higher than yourself is the goal of anyone. Imagine that you have a candle inside of your being. This is your light. If at any moment someone or something is taking away from your light, adding to your light, or even keeping your light going then you are out of balance. You are an individual and the way to tap into universal consciousness is by feeling it inside of you with no external stimulation. Getting to the moment of bliss by yourself. If all people did that they would feel the connection and sense of peace that all people are looking for outside of themselves. Blessings to you all.
