Things I learned at "Orienteering" class

To continue our discussion from the other day about putting my canoe in the water, here are some other important things I have learned through researching energetics.  Readers Digest version;
1/ We are spirits having a human experience.
2/ As spirits we are all powerful. But using it all doesn’t serve our
               growth/journey.
3/  It is our nature (birthright) to be abundant in wealth, health, joy,
               peace & love.
4/  Source energy is LOVE unconditional. 
5/  Each person has their own journey, do not interfere.
6/  Live in the moment.
7 / Ego (human consciousness) is resistant to surrendering control 
                  of your life to your spirit.
8/  Stop judging ,
          “A thing be neither good nor bad but that we think it so”. Seneca.
9/  Everything is connected (mind, body, spirit) in the individual
                  and in the quantum/universe.
10/Think with your heart (your higher consciousness speaks here).
11/Live in a state of gratitude and allowing (acceptance). 

 To elaborate a bit on the above points:  
1/ We are SPIRIT (conscious energy) having a physical experience (like Nicholas Cage’s character in City of Angels). Just a light being driving
around what amounts to a carbon based car and like cars when one wears out we replace it. Hence the reincarnation thingy.

2/ Our spirit-self is an expression of source/god energy and therefore is as powerful a creator as source. Yes that is ALL powerful.  Fortunately (unlike humankind) spiritual power comes exponentially with wisdom. That is why I described manifestation like dancing up a spiral staircase, the more powerful / skilled you become the more your priorities change.

3/ Some people come into their awakening suddenly, through a near death experience or another “Road to Damascus” type encounter.  For most of us including myself it is a journey, one step at a time picking up “ah ha” moments along the way. This knowledge is very old from multiple sources, times, people and cultures.  

4/ This divine ultimate power which is in all things, through all things
and of all things
is LOVE. Not the ego driven human love; but unconditional, pure acceptance simply because you are spirit. Once you start living as spirit first you are receiving and disseminating that energy all the time. Remember energy is always in movement or flowing. Human love is also good, it is one of the things we came here to experience. Once you start living in that awareness, nothing troubles you anymore. 

5/  No you cannot be ALL powerful in human form. If that is what you wanted your spirit would not have chosen the human experience. This is the surrender part. We are on a journey and each step on the road brings us closer to awareness (awakening). Accept that each person (including you) is doing the best they can in any given moment. 

6/ We can learn from the past (even past lives)… We can prepare for the future but the only time we can live in is NOW. Live each moment like it is the only moment you have.  

7/ For most people the human –self (toddler) is running the show. As we awaken we become more aware of our spirit-self (teenagers-adult) and allow that part of us to be more in charge. Like taking a toy away from a 2 year old your human-self is going to fight you for control. So you may have to transfer power a bit at a time. 

8/ Stop judging, others, yourself, situations, outcomes, and whatever... just allow it to be or become and enjoy what that unfolding brings to you. Judgment comes from the ego (human-self) and is not is authentic to living from spirit.    

9/ The connectedness of all things means that our physical health is affected by our energetic flow (or lack thereof) as well as our  psychological state and the organics of our body and environment.  All of these things have to be considered in becoming our healthiest, happiest most abundant selves.

10/ All the wisdom and knowledge of the universe(s) is available to us through source consciousness (energy). Your intuition is in direct contact with that higher /divine knowing. These are the grown-up in the household of our lives. But the toddler (ego) in charge is going to try to distract you with tantrums to keep from hearing what the grown-ups are saying. Always follow your intuition (heart knowing/ gut) over logic. Don’t try to anticipate or control the outcomes just trust that all is as it should be.

11/ Be grateful in every moment for what is present and good, don’t carry the pain of the last moment into this moment. Will that pain still be there when I open to the next moment? Probably but we will attend to that moment when it gets here. In this moment, what do I have to be grateful for? The sun on my skin, air in my lungs, a child’s laugh or cry. So just for this moment I take a break from feeling pain and choose to feel gratitude.

This has gone on quite long and only scratches the surface of what I have learned on my journey to energetic power. Thanks for listening and now that we have the location of the north star I am excited to see where my canoe will take me. 

Have a joyous day.
