Sandra Rogers & 11 points on anger & hate

In a book called, Lessons from the Light, Sandra Rogers shares insights about her physical life as well as how near death experiences (NDE) transformed her from the inside out.

Regardless of whether you have a view about NDEs, to keep an open mind serves you.  Real life experience teaches you negative energy obscures and separates you from positive energy.  Everyone has choices to think, feel and recharge.  Ponder what you gain from these 11 points on anger and hate;

1) Anger is love's energy misused.

2) When we hate others, we hate ourselves. They are two sides of the same coin.

3) An act of hostility, like a ripple on a pond, radiates out from the giver until eternity.

4) Holding a grudge produces negative energy.  It not only hurts the one you hold a grudge against, it also hurts you and others.

5) As long as you are a child of rage, you will not find the power to know your potential as a child of God.

6) When you feel tempted by the emotion of anger-retreat.  Anger is not the opposite of love, indifference is.  Anger is the expression of free will, often manifest as a result of feeling controlled and feeling the need to assert our willpower over others.

7) In focusing on sex, do so in Love, never in anger.  Sex is a gift from God to be given as an expression of Love.  Some choose to use sex selfishly, in anger as a weapon, believing it is giving them power and control.

8) When you see someone full of hatred or anger, treat them with love so that you can be an example they may later reflect.

9) Bigotry is self-hate.

10) Vengeance brings only trouble.

11) When you teach fear, you create hatred and anger.

In essence, the most profound revelation you can have is that everything is pointing to the love you either allow yourself to see or resist and selectively overlook.  Awaken to see.

"Hatred is a disguised form of love. You can only hate someone whom you really wish to love, because if you were totally indifferent to that person, you could not even get up enough energy to hate him."  - Sri Chinmoy

7 Things to learn from other people's challenges

Human beings have a tendency to get wrapped up in other people's situations. You may do this for different reasons. It may relate to a lack of mental discipline, pure curiosity, your nature as a energy giver, or any variety of other reasons. You may or may not dream of being in someone else's situation.  Consider 7 things to learn from other people's challenges;

1) You always do enough. When you know someone who is not well, or who is facing other challenges, it is tempting to fall into the trap of feeling you could always be doing more to help than you already are. This is a test for you to learn about overcoming helplessness.

2) Love & support are always valuable. Regardless of how someone around you is reacting to their own circumstances, your presence, thoughts and actions can provide different forms of support and encouragement. Whether or not acknowledged, positive energy is doing good and contributing to an invisible healing process. Sending kind thoughts also has a beneficial effect.

3) Your judgment can be transformed. Part of you may wonder  or whysomeone continues to behave in ways that are self-destructive or otherwise, perpetuates their problems. Such external observation reveals your own inner judge.  This reveals how you absorb negative energy and distract attention away from yourself. The inner judge is a self-created illusion. You can shift focus and use this energy to learn more about yourself.

4) Awareness is relative. Human beings have different levels of self-awareness. What you sense about someone else is not necessarily what they see or understand. Perception is shaped by experience. It often seems easier to notice faults in others or their difficulties than to acknowledge your reactions reveal useful messages about yourself.

5) Saving someone is not your job. It is common for altruistic human beings to desire to save someone from further misery, distress or suffering. At the same time, as someone repeatedly talks of problems without being willing to explore why they exist, this signals the person is not ready to consciously recognize the real issues or take responsibility for them.

6) Co-dependence offers a learning curve. Co-dependence is the idea that your behaviour enables someone to continue living in self-denial about destructive thoughts and behaviour. You cannot change a person, but you can change how you react to them. If you sense someone is doing something that is not good for them, you have choices as to whether or not you turn a blind eye, whether you help them feed a habit or refuse to take responsibility.

7) Nothing you assume as important actually is. Human beings get preoccupied with situations that evoke emotions. The situations themselves are irrelevant. Every person creates situations they need in order to step outside their comfort zone. You exist to teach yourself you are not meant to control everything or always get your way. Life is not meant to be constantly predictable, explained or understood. You are learning more about energy flow, attuning to love and the essence of surrender.

Find blessings everywhere

Blessings are found where you choose. Thinking and feeling are choices. To recognize this is extremely empowering. Whenever conditioned impulse is negative, its useful to learn to shift focus to the positive. Remind yourself of benefits in the moment to reframe and dissolve negative energy;

Illness. Mental and physical suffering help draw attention to choices that do not serve you. As you grow more aware of what you do and why, you can choose to take more responsibility for your life. As you shift thoughts, feelings, and habits, your views of healthy and unhealthy evolve and facilitate healing.

Emotion. Discomfort alters the natural flow of energy.  This reveals a valuable gauge to reorient purpose and direction. Negative energy draws attention to different energy effects you control within. Emotion creates energy waves or vibration fluctuations.  They complicate things unnecessarily or act as signposts to suggest you alter behaviour.  Each stage offers opportuntities for deeper learning.

Attachment.  Each situation that arises can be viewed as a help or a hindrance to self-growth.  A material focus invites you to rediscover the power and perspective to be regained through detachment. The human mind oscillates between examples of duality like good and bad until you transcend judgment.

Disorder. To sense conflict with the ego mind means you realize this is not the real you.  Raising self-awareness sets up conditions that enable you to do what is required to create balance and order. As you redefine what it means to be ‘in sync’ or in harmony with soul, this stimulates creative energy.

Selfishness. This is an opportunity to explore the notion of selflessness and facets of altruism. To believe the non-ego state of being is associated with inner peace encourages exploring that path. To recognize what you are not doing may serve as the actual stimulus to do it.

Difficult people.  Anything you view as a problem actually mirrors things you deny or reject inside. Perceived enemies or troublemakers exist to draw your attention to parts of yourself that require work. As you choose to love and forgive individuals who seem to disrupt your life, you begin to realize that if it was not for them, you would remain in a coma about what matters.  

Nightmares. Heightened states of awareness exist at unconscious and deeper levels. The body and mind employ strategies to bring thoughts and feelings to the surface when a soul is ready to evolve.  Your most influential guides engage energy at superconscious and subatomic levels.  The illusion of time progression is created in physcial worlds so souls evolve to gauge their own spiritual awareness.

5 Ways to expand consciousness

Consciousness is a concept human beings initially define only in human terms. You may struggle to grasp that beliefs have potential to bridge not only degrees of awareness about physical forms, but also layers of knowledge about energy vibrations in formless dimensions you may not yet discern or accept as real. Consider 5 ways to expand consciousness;

1) Remember you arrive without ego. Physical existence is a soul exercise to learn who you are. At birth, you mentally bury lessons learned during past incarnations. Integrity or, the desire to be honest, drives the core of every soul. Yet, the voice of ego obscures truth and alters perception. One has infinite opportunities to create and resolve misunderstandings. As you adapt in mind, you effect collective intelligence.

2) Uncover truth by acting responsibly. As a human being raises awareness, inner soul comes to identify layers of self-deception. One is equipped to work through fear and obstacles falsely imagined. They anchor you artificially where you think you are. Going with the flow of energy means not interfering with the natural unfolding of creative power within oneself.

3) Discern meaning of fragmented self. A human being is never completely separate from the Source of core energy. At birth, a percentage of energy transfers to your physical form. At transition (apparent death), energy shifts to re-join the balance of energy you left behind. Energy awaiting your return has multiple, ongoing roles you attune to or sense when ready.

4) Perceive time and space as relative. Each soul fragments from a singular energy Source that divides to enable different levels of existence and expansion. Each soul fragment has equal intelligence and capacity to detach and recombine. Yet, the complex nature of soul memory and knowledge differ at conscious, subconscious and other conscious levels. Knowledge is accessible as one is ready to accept and apply progressive degrees of truth.

5) Grow more conscious of parallel dimensions. Diverse levels of soul training reveal possibilities of learning things like bi-location in one realm and conscious splitting of energy into others. This brings to light reality of multiple, simultaneous incarnations. Its possible to separate one's soul energy to guide souls in physical worlds and also to function on other planes. To transcend negative energy empowers unimaginable, simultaneous functions that human beings are not all psychologically ready to accept.

7 Points of universal reflection

1) Energy is not created or destroyed, but can be reworked.

2) Growth arises through coping skills and understanding.

3) To dissolve fear and reframe risk readjusts karmic patterns.

4) Power and wisdom are rediscovered in perceived transitions.

5) The light a soul radiates is proportional to energy vibration.

6) Consciousness enables one to heal others and the self.

7) Attuning to the speed of energy particles shifts awareness.
