Every experience is drawn to you by your energy. You’re responsible for all of it.

You can work with each issue you’re resisting one at a time, or you can work on the issue of resistance in the first place and remain open under all circumstances.

Just surrender and let go of worrying about it all. Everything else takes care of itself. God’s got your back.

Would like to know one thing.
Many of us are troubled by a certain circumstance reoccuring in our lives repeatedly over and over.
I would like to know that
whether through emotional healing is it just that maybe the circumstance may keep repeating over and over as it used to be but somehow u now become just unaffected totally by it?
OR
is it that through healing one completely transcends the corresponding circumstance and life now sees to it that the circumstance does not reoccur in your life since it serves no purpose at all?
Some are born in a pesimestic family where people neither themselves do have any peace of mind and try their level best to make this state of mind contagious to all around them.
Is all that one needs to do is change the way one feel about them so that the corresponding circumstances thrown by them on one would end or is it that their way of behaviour with one would continue to be the same and all that would happen is that one would be unaffected by whatever goes on.

You have a spelling error that confused me at first. It’s under the section “Letting Go of Negative…”

Literally dissolve all the accumulated emotion that sounds various thoughts, circumstances, and activities.

Did you mean “surrounds various thoughts…”???

I freakin’ LOVE your work!

Not to open a whole can of worms here, but it seems like that’s what “Jihad” was originally referring to: the personal internal struggle with the monkey mind within.

Yet the teachings on the ego got misunderstood to be used by the ego to further its own desires and now we have terrorists.

Thank you for pointing out that it’s an internal experience that’s transcended through the light of understanding. As has been said many times, all suffering is due to ignorance.

Cheers!

It really is a different way of living when all of your problems are dealt with internally. I think that this way of doing things is a much more direct way of learning than the second one you mention where you survive and stumble across the answer.

Interestingly I still view it as a internal war (and wouldn’t have called my blog warrior development if I didn’t believe so) but of a different type. I see it like a guard during peace times. Constant awareness is crucial and rooting out corruption a daily task. Defeating the enemy that lurks in the darkness by shining the light of understanding upon them.

A different kind of warrior

You’re also bang on with people being in love with their struggle. “No pain, no gain,” as if life MUST be a struggle or else it’s not worthwhile.

The karma issue is silly. Rise up to a higher level of consciousness and you’ll take care of all your karma. Bam. Done. It’s not like you can magically gloss over your karma.

The hard way is definitely an option, but it’s not the only way. Excellent comment.

I reflected on this issue a lot, and I came to the same conclusion. I basicly think that its simply a belief that you have to learn lessons…I see no point in it.
If one sees life simply as some kind of “holodeck” that can be used to experience various situations, and not as a school, life becomes a lot more fun, and lots of the issues fall away naturally. Often its a very limiting belief that there is something that needs to be learned. Often (for example in the case of anxiety) it’s just memories of past experiences, who scared you back then, becaue you had no better way of coping with them. Nothing more. It seems to me that the *only* thing that can be learned about anxiety is that it is an illusion. Releasing an issue simply showes that it doesnt really have a grip onto you, unless you beleif in it. So I guess the lesson is learned even when someone simply releases the issue.

And the whole karma debate is pretty funny too. People whine about “tricking” or “avoiding” your karma, but maybe it’s their karma to find easier ways of solving their issues?

In the end I guess, most people simply fell in love with the struggle of beeing a “spiritual warrior”…There is some kind of weird romance in having a hard time, strungling hard, and finally beeing the lone hero who won against all odds.

So to sum it up, most people just love the hard way because it brings a greater sense of accomplishment (to the ego) to do it the hard way
