Change The Way You Believe, And The Change Will Be Unbelievable"

If something is alive then you are connected to it.
You are connected to every living thing on this planet and any other planet in the Universe.
It does not make any sense for you to hate any living thing because you would only be hating a piece of yourself. Love everything and you will feel the love of everything in return. Use you body for love and love will lead you. Stop listening to what everyone else is saying is possible because they do not know what is possible for you - they barely know what is possible for them.

Your body was made for exploring, so go explore every part of the Earth that is humanly possible. Explore other people; explore yourself. Don't waste a moment. Don't spend your life making plans for someday. Set your ideas in motion right now, because that is all you really have anyway.

Don't believe for one second that you do not have the resources, because you do. Think of all of the things you bought that you paid too much for that you really didn't need. You can do it. Refocus your finances for the passions of your life.

Stop blocking yourself right this moment. You are the only reason your life is the way it is, and if you are not happy with it, then only you can change it.

Change the way you believe, and the change will be unbelievable...

The Church Marquee

I passed by a church marquee today that read: God Hates Disobedience. Obey Now or Suffer the Consequences.

So now God is hateful? Just what kind of god do these people worship?

Tell me this - God can continually create everything you see, and that which you cannot see, including your eternal self - and yet people believe that God requires obedience. What purpose would this serve for God? And then there are consequences?

What you do not know is that the Soul is always obedient to the Source of Life, so no requirement is necessary. This Spiritual obedience is autonomic because the Soul's Awareness is already One with All That Is. For example: your arm obeys the mind because it is connected to the mind and does not have the ability to work separately from its Source - not because your arm fears retribution from your mind.

How narcissistic must these church goers believe God to be? I think people have displaced their own vanity into an image of God. Man has created God in its own image.

God uses your humanity to express and receive expression, but God does not control or limit your awareness and God does not require you to be obedient or suffer the consequences. You know this doctrine is false because consequences are 100% fear based, and God never ever emanates from a realm of fear.

Why Haven't You Won The Lottery?

People often disagree with me because they are convinced the soul is just a benign entity that God controls, and their human mind is the master. They will say, “Oh yeah, well, I want the lottery. Why haven’t I won? I play religiously. I watched the movie, The Secret, and did everything it said.”

That is when I say:
If the actual you, which is a soul, wished to experience the winning of the lottery, the soul would direct its body to the exact store, on the exact day, and at the exact moment the winning combination of numbers is to be printed. This is easy for the soul to do because it can already see the completed reality that the winning lottery numbers already exist within.

(The Soul does not need your Human eyes in order to "see" how the choices, or paths chosen will work out. )

You cannot concentrate on winning the lottery and make it happen for you. Concentration has nothing to do with it. The human mind may have seen that the lottery is offering money, and based on all of the data previously logged by the brain, such as bills, vacationing in paradise, or the envy of other people’s riches, the brain will postulate the lottery as the logical choice to solve all of those scenarios. The brain has been trained to believe, and operate off of, the notion that money is the solution. So the brain knows that to acquire that money, it has to play the game by buying a ticket.

But after months and maybe years of playing and not winning, the brain cannot figure out why the money hasn’t come, and then frustration sets in along with a basic contempt for being able to create other things that it believes will remedy whatever situation is at hand.

What the brain does not know, is that the soul is in charge of making decisions; and the soul may not be seeking the type of reality that comes along with receiving lottery money. All the human brain sees are dollar signs. But the soul can see all of the things that particular reality has to offer, all the way to its completion.
Perhaps the lottery comes with relatives popping out of the woodwork to harass you for money. Maybe people call you up that you don’t even know to try and take money from you. Someone may wish to harm you for the money. Or perhaps the Soul simply does not wish to experience wealth in that way. There could be many other unwanted events tied to the lottery reality that the soul has no interest in experiencing. But all of those reasons are missing from the human mind’s database, and therefore, cannot formulate a proper understanding as to why the lottery money has not arrived.

This creates frustration and people usually just give up. Since you cannot see if the lottery is on the path or part of the choice of reality you have chosen, simply play the game with an absolute feeling of calmness and then let it be. Make sure you play the game out of the enjoyment of entertainment; let the mystery of winning excite you, not frustrate you. Do not feel like you need the win to feel complete. Be in peace.

The Conscious Mind Connection

 The subconscious is where our root or sponsoring thoughts are kept; the part of you that is set in its way and refuses to change. The conscious mind pulls the data from the subconscious mind and then, based on different factors, determines what the truth of any given situation is. This truth can change as the situation changes. The conscious part of your mind is where the rigid rules are kept on what is acceptable and what is not.

The subconscious does not judge, or make right or wrong assertions. It simply submits to what is being asked of it. It is the storage of all the raw data you have ever received in your life. The subconscious is the area of thought that accepts everything it is given; it never forgets anything. It is the place where your dreams manifest. The subconscious plays out the information as it exists; that is why dreams can often make little or no sense. Because it isn’t playing the data the way that it “believes” it should be played. The subconscious acts like a compact disc, playing out all that it contains.

Then, in the morning, the conscious mind may not remember the dream, remember only a portion of the dream, or the dream quickly fades after waking. Sometimes, if you try to describe the dream to someone, it will make absolutely no sense and seem to have no apparent sequence of events; just random snapshots of the dream. That is because the conscious mind has not yet set up any specific rules for the replaying of that particular data from the subconscious. The rules for replaying data exist in the conscious where a logical sequence is applied – if possible.

But then, there are the dreams that you can remember. They tell a story. You can remember them vividly. There are sequential happenings and purposes. That is because the conscious mind has already set up pre-existing rules and guidelines for the data that is in the subconscious regarding those details. Perhaps it was from the news and it was a deeply profound story or tragedy. Or maybe an event that is weighing heavily on your mind for a prolonged period of time, so the conscious mind has time to build a set of acceptable and reject-able rules to follow.

Once this secret is realized by the conscious mind, you can then begin to understand the dreams (data) that you are receiving. You must learn and train yourself not to operate apart from your subconscious, but in synchronicity with it. It will be at that juncture that the messages from your spirit, which are always processed through the subconscious, will become clear in your conscious life.

Your spirit passes its messages through the subconscious because that is the one area of your human mind that will accept everything it receives without judgment or ruling. Only the conscious mind would ever object.

I can tell you something and make it sound believable, even presenting some “false facts” and, having nothing else to compare the data to, your conscious mind will believe it. It will have made a “decision” of acceptability based on the pre-existing rules it already has. And until your conscious mind is given a new set of rules to judge by, it will continue to believe that specific way.

But the secret is: a bridge must be built between the subconscious and conscious mind so that your spirit can communicate more clearly through your sub area to your alert area. This is the best way of tossing out the old rules and programming your mind has created, and letting the Soul guide you instead. The Soul does not provide rules with its messages because it does not need them; your Spirit provides only the truth, and if you follow the truth of Spirit, you will never need rules again because the source of information is faultless.

Love Is On The Way...

No matter what someone has done to you along the way. No matter what ideologies and fears of sex have been laid inside of your subconscious. And no matter what pictures you’ve drawn of yourself in your own mind about how you think the other sexual beings of the world see you. You are beautiful. You are sexy. Your curves are sensual and your muscles are definitive.

There is someone out there in the world that is exactly like you and needs the same thing you do. But how will you find this person, you may ask? I tell you this with all of the assurance in the heavens:
If you seek love, it shall find you. There is not one single force in the Universe stronger than love. The only thing you need to do to draw love into your life is to become the embodiment of love. That is to say, you have to know that you are pure love, and everything else that exists in your life is just for decoration. Don’t you know that you are already known throughout the Universe? Every Spirit that has ever existed knows that you are here. 

You would have already drawn the love you seek into your life, but the Universe is a passive creating force; the word force does not mean that it pushes its way into being. All the Universe knows how to do is create, but it never forces itself onto anything. If there is the slightest resistance, the creative flow simply flows in the least resistive direction.

So, if you are resisting the natural flow of creation in any way, creation will simply go around your resistance and you will miss out. The example of this would be for you to step into a moving stream and watch the water easily redirect itself around your foot and leg. The water does not even attempt for a moment to force its way through you. The creative flow of love is the same way. As long as you have a wall up in your mind, you will be averted. But when you remove your walls, the flow of love will head straight for you, like removing your foot from the water so that the stream can resume its natural course. So be ready, and hang on with all of your might.

Fear and Illness Are Best Friends

There are a lot of fears running through the idea of getting sick, injured, dying or losing someone in the family to one of those aspects. Thinking of illness or anything opposite of well being on a continual basis can literally destroy your body; this is because the mind is hard-wired from birth to put function to the information that is going through it. The mind comes pre-programmed by DNA to run and control particular parts of the body. The primary area is called the Limbic System (or Emotion Nervous System).

Let us focus in on the area of the brain known as the hypothalamus. It is one of the busiest parts of the brain. It balances the body and is responsible for regulating hunger, thirst, pain level responses, pleasure, sexual satisfaction, anger, aggressive behavior and plenty more. These areas had to come “installed from the factory” so to speak, so that the body could function rudimentarily as soon as it was born.

The hypothalamus does not come pre-programmed with illness, worries of illness, stress, panic, fear or self-loathing. Of course, the hypothalamus can regulate those things once they are added as a thought program by an outside source; but those principles are not inherent. With that in mind, you can see that the brain gives the body the precise instructions and tools it needs to survive and thrive. Only outside sources give the body what it needs to fail. The body will do exactly what the brain tells it to do. The brain will command only what it knows, as the body will carry out what is commanded of it. 

Once the mind learns of fear, the hypothalamus will try to regulate it into the body as a function to perform; except the body was not ever intended to regulate fear. But it tries the best that it can, and since the body is a vessel that is able to evolve somewhat, it does a pretty good job. However, the body will usually interpret the various levels of fear with various levels of physical responses. Remember that fear comes in all shapes and sizes; such as anxiety, stress, panic or others. Fear can cause hives, shingles, rashes, forgetfulness or many other physical conditions. Just a note, the hippocampus (where short term memory is processed into long term memory), is super close in proximity to the hypothalamus. It isn’t unreasonable to believe one could affect the other.

 

Look at the hypothalamus a little more deeply:

The hypothalamus receives inputs from a number of sources.

1.  From the vagus nerve, it gets information about blood pressure and the distension of the gut (that is, how full your stomach is).

2.  From the reticular formation in the brainstem, it gets information about skin temperature. 

3.  From the optic nerve, it gets information about light and darkness. 

4.  From unusual neurons lining the ventricles, it gets information about the contents of the cerebrospinal fluid, including toxins that lead to vomiting. 

5.  And from the other parts of the limbic system and the olfactory (smell) nerves, it gets information that helps regulate eating and sexuality. 

The hypothalamus also has some receptors of its own, that provide information about ion balance and temperature of the blood.  

Now this is not a biology lesson, but as you can see, these indigenous platforms in the brain control nearly everything you experience every moment of your life. So if you make any modifications to the cellular memory of the brain, which is where these DNA programs are stored, the brain will naturally include the new additions in its daily routine because the brain believes the new ideas are supposed to be there.

AND HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART:

The Body WILL Respond.

The body doesn’t recognize the difference between a good thought implant or a bad one. The body just executes the impulse from the brain that is sent to it. You see, in the beginning of your life, the mental programming was benign. You did not arrive on Earth with anything in your mind that works against you. These things are added later. If a baby was isolated and given only what it needed to survive, the brain would stay at its most basic, survival level until the end of its life. The brain would, in fact, shut down other areas of itself that were never stimulated. Thus, illustrating further that the brain does not produce new thoughts of its own volition; it cannot. It was never designed to. It receives and commands.

  

That is why thinking about, or inundating yourself with hostile, troubling, confusing, or fearful thoughts will only lead to undesirable outcomes from within the body. Cancer is the result of a body trying its best to formulate a response to what it has been given from the brain. The body was not designed to produce an outcome for fear on a long term basis, so cancer is often what arrives from the continual input of fear or its sub-parts. 

Keep in mind that cancer does not manifest overnight. Your brain is presented with fear over a length of time – sometimes a lifetime; so the brain in return gives it to the body as a function to perform, all the while, the hypothalamus is constantly attempting to return the body to homeostasis; that is a default state of balance.

Cancer cells are fought off by the body every day and the body is a champ at fighting; but even the body can wear down because chances are, if you are treating your brain in such a terrible way, you are probably treating your body in a similar way.

Along with feeding your mind the best possible thoughts, you must also feed your body the best possible foods so that it can have precisely what it needs to keep your body in balance. Just as bad thoughts confuse the mind, bad foods confuse the body’s natural state of balance.

To say it simply:

Cancer is a body-wide state of confusion.

A Little Conscious Training ...

How hard would it be to face a foreclosure on your home? Your spouse is worried sick about what will happen while you try to shield your children from what is really going on. How stressing is it to not bring in enough money to get caught up, because your job falls short or you are unemployed? 

It seems impossible to close your eyes and feel absolutely at peace about the entire calamity, doesn't it. And once you've engaged the roller-coaster of emotion that comes with those circumstances, and ridden that wave for months, it feels impossible to simply shut down the emotional peril and believe everything will be just fine somehow.

Perhaps you feel you just can't sit around and be at peace while your life falls apart.

But how far have you gotten living the way I have just described? Do you feel like your mind cannot stand one more piece of bad news? Can you literally feel the cancer cells of worry germinating somewhere within your body? Has worrying added one single support beam to the already crumbling structure of your existence?

The same can be said about any other conceivable circumstance; wrecking your car, the death of a loved one, or even just feeling depressed and not knowing why. These things well up inside of you without a remedy because your mind does not know how to process things as they really are. It may not have been given data on how to respond to these types of outcomes, so the brain remedies them as crises and becomes confused and panicked. 

REMEMBER: The mind only Knows what it has accepted as Truth.

Your mind is working off of the limited data that it has been using for years. Your mind, because of training, actually does not understand that the world it perceives is nothing more than an abstract reaction to what we have put into it. It does not know how to process world events in an abstract way. When cornered, or without sufficient data, the mind will process worldly events in your life as a direct attack, and go into fight or flight mode. That is, it struggles, hastily recalling anything it can from its past deliberations on how to solve the problem at hand. When all on-board resources are exhausted, the mind fatigues, and sometimes gives up.

But listen to this:

There will come a time during your crisis that you will realize that you simply are unable to produce the effect desired to make your life better. You will feel like an empty gas tank, running on fumes. This result is not because you are unqualified, or not intelligent enough to do it. It is not because you didn't work hard enough, or that you wronged someone in a previous life, and are now reaping bad karma. It is because you have taken life too personally, and as a result, skewed your perception of it.

Let me ask you this. Have you ever played a video game with multiple levels, only to get near the completion and fail? Did you become agitated, angry or frustrated because you have to start the level all over again, until at some point, a friend who has already played the game and won had to help you pass the level?
Your friend has already understood how to process the events and circumstances of the game that are being thrown their way. Well, life is like that – once you teach your conscious mind how to react to what comes its way, life will feel like it is no big deal. Everything will seem achievable, even in the midst of turmoil.

Understand that everything that has happened in your life was completely constructed by you. The things you've accumulated and the towers you've built are just inanimate objects. They are made of millions of pieces of wood, brick, steel or plastic. These things have no opinions. They have no ideas. They do not become angry or happy. They Do Not Have Minds. They are not out to get you. Your diamonds do not care if you toss them into the garbage, and your house will not be aware if you rip it to the ground.

These things seem obvious, but when life is falling down, visions become blurry. To shrink these monstrous problems back down to size, you must believe that your home, job, possessions and status mean absolutely nothing. You have to treat everything that is collapsing onto your head as an "easy come, easy go" situation. Yes, it all has to mean that little to you. Do not let your ego tell you that you've worked hard for all you have and that you are going to hold onto to it with all of the strength you can muster.

"How can I get to this point?" you may ask. I shall tell you. If you wish to place your mind in this frame of thinking quickly, imagine that you are only a few minutes from your death. That's right. Pretend that I just told you that you will die in the next five minutes. With this new knowledge, picture the things that really mean the most to you. Is it truly your house? Your car? The money you wish you had? Your prestige in the community?

You know you cannot take anything from your current life with you into the coffin, or the crematory. You will absolutely go your last mile with exactly what you arrived with - yourself. So why hold on so dearly to anything you’ve acquired? Are you leaving it all to your children? Are you attempting to create a legacy so you can be remembered?

Believe me, those who care enough to remember you, will. Your children will be their own adults and make their own way because they came to this physical world through you to experience their own choices. Your family is not unable to acquire their own things, so what are you doing?

I promise that if you lose all of your possessions, you will not die. If all that you think you are vanished before your very eyes, you will survive. That alone tells you that the things that are tearing your mind and heart apart right now are harmless artifacts. They are only as overwhelming as you allow them to be, because they have no power of their own. 

The secret is - you must find a way to let these things go. You must decide that they are worthless and suddenly you will not mind if they are absent from your life. You must absolutely be one hundred percent okay with having nothing; but in the process of not needing anything, you will find even more. This is not just a great perception, it is true. Teach your conscious mind that you do not care about possessions. Make your brain understand that you do not love material items, and that you were thinking of starting fresh anyway. Until you can walk away from the disaster that you created, and accept that you created it, you will be trapped under it.

“It isn’t my fault the economy failed,” you say. But it is your fault that you went to work in a field that was affected by the failing economy. No one forced you at gun point to work in that marketplace. Every choice you have made has put you here. The issue isn’t whether you could have foreseen an economic fluster in the beginning of your career. The issue is can you accept responsibility for all of the choices, for all of your life, from the very beginning that led to the outcomes you see before you now? You could have chosen something else all those years ago, and been virtually immune to Wall Street’s impositions.

Here is what you do now:

If recovering what you have built thus far is unrecoverable, let it go. It is important to understand that letting it go, and being okay with that decision, will open up new doors. When you let it go, and do not want to have a panic heart-attack, you must believe that everything will benefit you somehow. You may be blind to what is around the corner for you and your family, but when you feel as peaceful about the unknowing as you did when you thought you knew everything, you will have unleashed your power.

Do not allow your mind to feed on doubts. Remember that your mind is working with what it does not know, so it will naturally be doubtful. Your peace of mind has to come from another place – your Soul. Tell yourself that everything you need will arrive – be at peace with telling yourself that – and then mentally let it go.

Take in a deep breath. You are almost there.
