Embrace your latest learning opportunity

 Many people believe they have lived before, that is, their soul has lived and died in other physical bodies.  You may even believe your past lives influence your present life.  Do you believe you have earned your current circumstances with previous behaviour?  Do you intuit karmic credits and deficits that shape you? What can you discern from your soul?

If you sense time isn't linear or chronological, you may choose to view it as a spiral or infinite.  If so, you may sense it surrounds you with everything happening simultaneously.  You begin to understand how different kinds of information can be accessed and reviewed where you are.  Learning then takes exciting twists and turns. 

Some people believe karma is created and influenced with each action.  It isn't necessarily a punishment for things you did in this life or others.  What if you could alter the nature of your karma by regressing back and healing or resolving things? You would then sense value in each reflection. If you were to delve into what seem to be your past lives, this may offer you proof of reincarnation. Is it time to test yourself or, open your mind wider?

Exploring your views may trigger dreams that begin to unlock past life memories.  Objects and symbols that stand out in dreams can also begin to uncover clues related to past identities.  Would you be willing to learn  more about who you are?

One test for identifying Tibetan lamas in young children is they should pick their own 'belongings' among different items.  If they do not hesitate to choose the right objects, they are recognized as a 'tulku' or reincarnated lama. The current Dalai lama is the 14th in his particular line.  He was identified using this and a series of traditional tests.

To go everywhere, choose to stay where you are

Events unfold with their own force.  Travellers are who they are because of what they take in and how they step back to see themselves.  They define meaning in each situation.  They also evolve to sense the invisible matrix that connects all events in time. 

Are you the sort of traveller who goes with the flow? adapts and rolls with the punches? Or, do you tend to want to interfere, to control whatever makes the most sense to you in the moment?  You can go everywhere and still choose to stay grounded where you are.

If you believe in infinity, you believe you can go anywhere, do anything.  You may be drawn to unlimited possibilities and you may also sense a fear of going there.  You may have no interest whatsoever in reminiscing about your past, but your mind power generates realms and recollections that reorient you, wherever you choose to go.

Detachment is a companion.  It permits you to review experiences you had overlooked or disregarded.  Was it real?  Did the rush of energy and feelings shake you to the depths of your innermost foundations? A part of your psyche and soul each take the upper hand.

Who sees you as you are?

Human beings dream of being seen or accepted as they are.  As you come to feel whole and complete inside, your perspective of the world shifts. Do you see me as I am?  Do you see yourself as you are?  How do you know or confirm it? What does that feel like? 

Few people choose to look into themselves or through the eyes of people directly.  You are conditioend to think this is a scary thing.  Why is this? Could it be that when you look directly, you see through external appearances.   What prompts you to turn away?

Eyes are described as windows into the soul.  You look into somebody's eyes and see reflections of your true self.  That is, what you desire to see and anything you would prefer to overlook or forget.  Unconditional love and acceptance are often traded away.

When you see yourself as you are, you reconnect with your soul, with everything and everyone. Should this worry you?  Of course not! Then, why do so many people resist taking responsibility for how they feel? For their core choices, decisions and creations?

People often prefer to push away or ignore who they are.  They wish find what appears missing. They think what they need is a person or relationship to feel more complete. be honest with yourself. If you find you know yourself deep down, if you see things as they are. how would your life actually change? What do you really have to fear?

Whatever your answer, to selectively forget the truth has some appeal. People go to great lengths to test endurance, faith, resiliance, relationships, to expand perception, and more. Discover what happens as you stop hiding from yourself, and true abilities. Discover the implications of raising awareness of your core connection with soul.

"The common eye sees only the outside of things, and judges by that, but the seeing eye pierces through and reads the heart and the soul, finding there capacities which the outside didn't indicate or promise, and which the other kind couldn't detect." - Mark Twain, Joan of Arc

Build your level of internal resources

The more you choose to evolve inside your physical body, the more your vibrational frequency will intensify.  Enlightenment is not a state of mind so much as a state of being and awareness.  You experience different initiations or, 'eureka' moments where your growing insight enables you to sense differently.  What are you preparing for next?

Each person you draw toward you, is a teacher.  You are constantly building your level of internal resources and self-understanding.  Through each person's patterning, you are invited to discern key things about yourself.  Its up to you to purify your ego and intent. 

How you value yourself tells you how you sense your lower levels of consciousness, your 'I am.'  You can learn to recognize and shift distortions that do not serve you.  Pettiness and contradictions result from transcendental conflict.  As you start to discern negative feelings, you are in the process of clearing, purifying to reach new levels of integrity. 

As you evolve to feel your energy, you also grow to see the energy and its impact on your life.  It takes on different forms so you can raise your awareness and continue learning. 

Guide yourself to resolve self-judgement.  Its all about your rationale for your behaviour.  Do you live life vicariously with thoughts of what it should be?  Will your most memorable moments stand the test of time because they aren't about you, even if you were there?

How do you "see" what happens?

Realize that you are in fact, your own oracle.  As you learn to see inside yourself, you begin to understand that your emotions and actions follow your beliefs, even if it takes time for you to discern physical results.  Change your thoughts and you change your life.

For example, a man told me a story from his life that redefined how he saw himself and his future.  He relayed how one early morning, he was abruptly stopped from going to work by  authorities.  They came to his home, seized property based on suspicion of a crime, and took him off for questioning.  He was released soon after, but the equipment was retained for an extended period until it could be well- examined by "specialists."

During an uncertain waiting period, where his fate hung in the balance, this man's self-doubt intensified. He began to view himself as victim of an uncompassionate society.  His sense of precarious circumstances caused him to question the state of his mind and life, why his sense of stability or happiness often seemed to be thwarted, and how realistic his dreams of personal and professional success really were.  Then, he changed his beliefs.

This story reminds me of the self-questioning on guilt and innocence in The Trial by Franz Kafka.  In that novel, Joseph K. realizes his fate is sealed after a cathedral priest tells him, he must accept things as they are; he cannot fight them. What is important is not whether everything the court says is true; what is important is the action is necessary.

Like this protagonist, we are each invited to discern what our conditions bring to the surface.  You may ask yourself why certain experiences don't seem of your own making.  And then, you realize you have everything to do with lessons brought to your attention.

You may have lost a sense of responsibility for your conscious thought.  Were you taught it doesn't form your life?  As long as you hold a particular conscious belief about yourself,  you'll experience this reality.  Yet, you are not at the mercy of how you thought before.  How you perceive yourself can change.  To change the physical effect, you must change the original self-belief.  To fear new beliefs won't materialize negates their purpose.
