Respond to adversity with love

Imagine you connect with someone who says he feels he approaches the end of his rope.  He shares with you that nothing is going right, that he is not getting what he wants and that his health is failing.  This person may be emotional, self-critical and focused on what he does not control.  This could also be you. What are you invited to learn?  How can you respond to adversity with love? Sense these five things;

1) Listen with your being.  See blessings wherever you are.

2) Feel every thought and emotion then, detach.  Know they are not you & do not control you unless you let them.

3) Love and accept everyone & everything unconditionally.

4) Recognize the impermanence of everything.

5)  Focus on your awareness of a situation & open to attract the thoughts that will reveal answers. Tap into universal wisdom consciousness.  Use what it offes without becoming slave to it.

See through the fear

Ask yourself what you sense when you hear the word, 'safe.'  What does it entail? Perhaps you imagine the feeling that the heart is totally fulfilled and all is well. Perhaps the mind suggests this is a mental understanding that you are free from danger or threat.  Somewhere, in the deepest part of oneself, unwavering security is.   

Consider what enables you to feel free from worry and what forces or situations trigger it. Notice common threads or patterns. What prevents you from experiencing an unwavering sense of security? What if mind is the start and end of fear? How does it resonate to begin to see though your own self-constructed illusions?

"Whomever can see through all fear will always be safe." -Tao Te Ching

20 clues the third eye is opening

You may hear about the existence of a third eye. It is common to ask how to know this opens or how to awaken the third eye. 

The ego mind tells you obstacles exist and you must remove them. As you begin to see through your conditioned beliefs, awareness of something beyond them grows. The impression it is opening is a letting go of limited perceptions.  This is about awakening to the true nature of existence. To deepen levels of consciousness is to recognize the third eye is always open.  

The third eye is also known as the sixth chakra or pineal gland.  As you release levels of resistance and fear, your sense of life expands, notice the chakras and their energy, and attune more closely to layers of what is real.  You begin to see through the ego mind's translation of energy and grow aware of pure love energy.  Consider clues to suggest innersight exists now;

1) Your begin to recognize the nature of the space-time mirror that creates duality (At the core, you are the energy of Spirit translated into a linear time stream)

2) You access deeper clarity, deeper insight into life events

3) You know without a doubt what is real and unreal

4) You know you are never alone (oversoul is ever-present)

5) You see more levels of the game of physicality (12 dimensions)

6) You are aware everything is energy vibration or rhythm

7) You know you are Source energy and are aware of immortality

8) You feel things that are not physically discernable

9) You access heightened sensitivity

10) You feel your only purpose is to discover who you are

11) You sense pulsating light waves

12) You no longer see pure blackness when you close eyelids

13) You grow increasingly fearless (not foolhardy)

14) Your meditation experience expands to sense light energy

15) You perceive light moving & expanding through the body

16) Your perspective reverts to that of a detached witness

17) You talk less, listen more and realize you know nothing

18) You notice consciousness expand & seeking identity loses importance

19) Competitive & negative emotion no longer control you

20) You begin to feel oneness or inter-connectedness to all things

Share your own sense of what is unfolding within.  What does it feel like to have perceived boundaries and difference to be falling away? Is this the revelation that the divine eye is open and increasingly unobstructed?
