Love and Power: this drives everything we do. How we get the true love and power from within
(knowingness of who we are and Universal Principles) vs. the illusion of love and power by
looking outside ourselves determines our experience of life. When we look outside ourselves (the
External Eternal Quest) for love and power we make an object (another person, money, guns,
political power, or career status) our source. Because the object is in the physical world it is by
its nature always changing and shifting, in many cases beyond our control. This is like building
your foundation on a house of cards, or on the weather. Most any disturbance can bring down the
house of cards, and the weather is always changing and practically impossible to control to
match our desires and expectations. The Universe will always drive us towards the Truth, to look
within for our love and power anchored by eternal principles. Pain and suffering is the Universe's
way of guiding and directing us to the right path when we 'miss the mark' by believing in a lie.
There are immutable laws that the Universe operates under. Understanding these laws will allow
us to live in harmony with the Universe and experience true joy and peace.
Definitions
Emotions: physiological state as represented by the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS).
Emotions generally arise spontaneously rather than through conscious effort. This is the
emotional energy that is trapped / stuck in the body physiology. Emotions are automatic
reactions to our environment and internal thoughts that reflect a measure of our self love and
power based on who we’re BEing. They can also be considered a measure of how much we
resonate with someone or something.
Feelings: internal subjective experience / state used to describe the emotions. The cortex
attempts to describe the emotion subjectively, much like the cortex attempts to integrate the
information from the eyes and ears to create a subjective experience of the environment.
Love: attachments are indications of our desire to love more fully, especially attachments to
people we hold dear. When we are attached we love conditionally, we love because of how we
feel physiologically. Soul love is unconditional and through soul love we love because of the
beauty and value of the other person.
Emotions
Emotions come up when we are charged. In other words, emotions are a measure of our self love
and power. When we perceive that our personal power and love change, we have an emotional
reaction. Emotions are information that tell us something about ourselves (i.e., our beliefs about
ourselves and our environment) in response to what we are experiencing either from an internal
or external stimuli. An example of an internal stimuli is a painful memory of the past, or
imagining something fearful in the future (i.e., worry). An example of an external stimuli is
someone you care about rejects you or hurts you physically such that one feels powerless.
The emotional charge comes from an underlying belief of who we are and / or what we believe
about our environment. The underlying belief system projects out from us to our environment
and colors our perception of our environment (see figure of R2D2 projecting the image from its
head). Here are some examples of belief systems: 'No one loves me'; 'I'm inadequate to handle
my life'; 'There's not enough'; 'I'm not enough'; 'I am powerful'; 'I am important'; etc. Belief
systems are beliefs about ourselves and our environment / world. Belief systems about our
environment / world are generally referred to as paradigms. Belief systems may be based on a lie
/ an illusion, or a truth. If we have a belief that 'I'm not enough', then naturally we will react with
a negative emotion that relates to our powerlessness. The emotion then drives us to take a certain
action, generally to compensate for the feeling of powerlessness and inadequacy. For example, if
I feel powerless inside, then I may get very angry or afraid, and I'll either run away or fight back,
or it may lead to an elaborate plan to build up material objects that give me the illusion of safety
and power, such as guns or money. Belief systems essentially form our conclusions no matter
what the situation may be. So we form our conclusions for a situation (the same conclusion
depending on which belief system is triggered), then we look for evidence (using the THINK
mechanism) to support the conclusion. So no matter what is going on, we will pick out whatever
we can find to support that conclusion. Having justified our conclusion with the THINK
mechanism, we then react to our environment consistent with our conclusion, which then has a
reaction from our environment consistent with our conclusion, which then further supports our
conclusion, which bolsters our justification for our conclusion. So we get into a vicious cycle
that strengthens the conclusion and therefore the belief system further. This is the cycle: Belief
System forms the Conclusion; we then gather evidence to support the conclusion and justify it;
we then react based on that conclusion having justified it; then our environment reacts
accordingly to counter our reaction, which then supports my conclusion; which then leads to
more evidence, etc., etc. down the spiral as shown in the diagram below.
When others say or do something they are actually projecting who they’re BEing. A cycle starts
when you project your stuff (negative BEing) onto someone else or others. The other person may
get triggered by your reaction and react back. That back and forth reaction is what creates a
vicious cycle where each projection is building upon itself as shown in the cycle above. The
cycle ends when you stop projecting and take resonsibility for who you're BEing. You can both
dissipate the charge and clear the belief system by expressing your story. The story is your
perception, projection that you're adding to the situation. When you're emotionally charged, that
charge is coming from an emotional charge that was triggered by a belief system. In a
relationship situation, the most effective way to clear a charge is to express your story to the
other person, i.e., communication. What is your story, what are you perceiving / projecting to the
situation? Once you know what you're projecting, then you can clear the false belief system and
act from truth.
Emotions may be positive or negative. Positive emotions may arise from false belief systems,
just as with negative emotions. Positive emotions may come up when our expectations about an
external outcome are met. For example, I win the lottery, which may momentarily provide a
positive emotion if I'm attached to money as my source of power. Most people suppress negative
emotions, because they judge the emotion as 'BAD' (i.e., I shouldn't feel this way). Suppressing
may involve drugs that alter behavior, trying to think only 'positive' thoughts, seeking activities
that distract us from facing the emotion, and even suicide for extreme depression cases. Instead
of suppressing our emotions we need to embrace them as the gifts they are to help us heal the
false belief systems that created them by aligning to the Truth of who we are and to Universal
Principles. False belief systems about the self are sometimes called our dark / shadow side. We
don't want to suppress that side of us. We want to integrate it and expose it to the Light of Truth.
When we finally expose our shadow side to the Truth it no longer drives and controls our
behavior. Instead we use the shadow side as information to help discern illusion from Truth,
identify others who want to cause us harm, and be compassionate to others who may be
experiencing their own shadow side. We integrate the light of truth with the dark. Our goal is to
become whole, not 'perfect' human beings.
By experiencing the lows we can experience the highs (Law of Polarity). Being open to receiving
means that we are open to experiencing both the positive and negative experiences in life. This is
what it means to be whole. We also are given the gift of compassion when we have experienced
our low points. Without experiencing the depths of our sorrow we cannot be compassionate to
Emotions drive what we THINK and DO and how we RELATE to others. Emotions, whether
positive or negative, cloud our ability to process information properly and blocks access to our
higher wisdom and guidance. When one is in an emotional reaction one operates in their
animalistic nature or automatic self / subconscious belief systems. Our actions / choices we make
then determine our results in life as every choice has a consequence. We have free choice to
express ourselves in any way we choose. However, the consequences of that choice are reserved
for Universal Law. We cannot choose the consequences, we can only choose our actions. A
choice based on a negative emotion will generally lead to greater pain and suffering. Insanity is
doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Getting to the depths and
costs of false belief systems and the insanity of our suffering by choosing to live in an illusion /
false belief system helps us to become free of it and open to change. To change our results in life
(fulfilling relationships, fulfilling our true mission and purpose, experiencing abundance) we
need to address the root belief systems because that is what drives the emotions and the entire
causal sequence of behavior.
Belief Systems
We have both a conscious (from 1 to 5 percent of our total mind) and an subconscious mind
(from 95 to 99 percent). The subconscious runs the show 95 to 99 percent of the time. The
subconscious mind acts on beliefs stored over a lifetime. Many of those beliefs you may have
accepted without thinking. Or you may have absorbed them when you were too young to
exercise choice. Beliefs are thought patterns of who we are and our environment. Beliefs
determine behavior (BE -> DO); energy follows thought. We call these groups of beliefs, belief
systems as they generally work as a whole to define who we are and our environment. Belief
systems of who we are are called IDentities (we need an IDentity / Ego / Personality in order to
operate in the physical plane). Belief systems about our environment are called paradigms. Belief
systems are like cups that holds / forms / shapes the energy. Belief systems themselves are not a
problem. The problems arise when we think our belief systems are the "truth" when in fact, they
are a bunch of lies and illusions. In many cases, people defend with their lives their beliefs.
When they believe in lie they are stuck, energy cannot flow and we are powerless. There can be
no power unless we are connected to Truth. Belief systems are hidden from our conscious mind.
This is why the emotions are so important. The belief system is the root cause of the emotion.
From this perspective we should embrace our emotions, since they are the gateway to who we
are BEing, which is the first step in transforming our belief systems, and through that
transforming our lives. By identifying the emotion from a neutral, non-judgmental space, we can
dig out the root belief system that created it.
We cannot think our way out of the emotion, as our emotions drive our thinking. We must feel
our emotions fully to get to the depth of the belief system driving the emotion. For example,
before we can forgive, we need to allow ourselves to really feel the pain of the experience. If we
don’t fully acknowledge our emotions, we will continue to carry them subconsciously and they
will drain our energy. By honoring our emotions / pain, we release them, and can access our
deeper belief systems so they can be healed. Once we have the false belief system identified it no
We create our belief systems from past experiences, genetic inheritance, programming by our
parents, programming by society (school, friends, television), in the womb through the emotions
experienced by the mother during pregnancy (see Dutch famine of 1944), to name a few. This
creation is done subconsciously as we are not aware of what we are doing. We unconsciously
accept what we see and experience from our senses and adopt it as a truth, even though many
times our senses deceive us. In other words, we conform to our surroundings because it is more
comfortable for us, we don't know any better, and when we're young we're completely dependent
upon our "tribe" and others around us for physical survival. So we conform and take on others
beliefs and judgments about who we are and paradigms about our environment. As we conform
to one belief we are more likely to align to linked beliefs of our "tribe" to minimize cognitive
dissonance. And over time, we assimilate into the mass consciousness as we take on more and
more beliefs and minimize cognitive dissonance. Cognitive Dissonance: once I take on one belief
as truth, then all subordinate beliefs align to that higher order belief. If the root belief system is
false / an illusion, then all other subordinate beliefs will be false. A powerful example of how
this is done can be found in how elephants are taught to be submissive at a young age and
propagates well into adulthood: Captors tie a young elephant to a tree with a length of rope
around his leg. No matter how hard he struggles to free himself, he cannot, and so he eventually
gives up. Then, as a massively powerful adult, by simply feeling the rope tied around his leg
although it is no longer attached to a tree, he believes he cannot escape and remains a captive.
He no longer realizes his own intrinsic power to improve his life by changing his perception. Yet
another example is the childhood tale of Lambert the Sheepish Lion. A story of a lion who was
raised by sheep and thought he was a sheep, so was cowardly and afraid of the wolf. When in
fact, he was the most powerful creature in the jungle and can easily devour the wolfs. Another
great example is the experiment with monkeys described in the following link:
http://sites.google.com/site/essenceprinciples/Home/universal-principles-introduction/universal-
principles/paradigms/belief-systems-monkeys
Below is a diagram of how belief systems of individuals (IDentities) are the foundation of the
mass consciousness, which creates the objective world around us. The only way to change our
environment is to first change ourselves and through our example we can impact other people
and over time change mass consciousness. "We must BE the change we wish to see in the
world."
False belief systems that have had many years of programming and have been ingrained in our
subconscious mind for many years take some time to dissipate the energy. Once you become
aware of the false belief system you will notice more often where you are being out of alignment
with truth. That will bring out your negative emotions even more. This is a gift as the negative
emotion needs to be experienced fully to dissipate the energy of the false belief system and
create SPACE for the new belief system to take hold. You can express these negative emotions
in a non-judgmental way in a journal knowing that this is just part of the process. Journaling our
emotions and experiences helps us build awareness of our subconscious patterns and belief
systems. With awareness we gain power over what was hidden, and can then move forward by
making a different choice, integrating a new belief system. In addition, a very powerful and
effective way to dissipate emotions and expand your comfort zone is to do the thing that scares
you or that is beyond your comfort zone. Doing what it is you fear will expand your comfort
zone and dissipate any emotional energy that has been trapped in the physiology based on the
false belief system. You can do it gradually or all at once depending on how comfortable you
feel. In any case, the idea is the same: to dissipate the emotional energy trapped in the
physiology so we make space to integrate the new belief system. In addition, once you allow
yourself to FEEL the emotion fully it's like taking a load off your back. You realize 'that wasn't
so bad'. You feel free and relieved to have gone through that. The energy is release and
completes its cycle. Now you are free to think clearly and move forward in alignment with
Universal Principles.
False belief systems are belief systems that are based on illusion / lies that go against natural law
and the natural order; i.e., artificial systems (such as believing in scarcity, believing we are just a
physical being only with no spiritual component). False belief systems narrow your field of
consciousness which leads to rigidity, denial, resistance, defensiveness, control, and not open to
You cannot get the guidance from Universe unless you have cleared the false belief systems and
replaced them with truth. Truth connects us to the flow. Without Truth there is no connection and
we are powerless. One cannot be open to receiving unless they know who they are in their True
Self. Knowingness of who we are opens the door to be led and guided in synchronicity with
Universal Energy flow. That requires that one have cleared their emotional charges and
integrated truth into their belief systems.
It is not what we experience that says something about ourselves, but how we experience. It is
not what happens but how we respond or react to what happens that reveals who we believe we
are. Do you think, feel or act in ways which show that you are the soul in charge of your life, or a
victim of life’s challenges?
The water that makes up so much of our bodies is like ocean water. The salt crystals in this water
vibrate at ever-changing frequencies. Our hearts are the emotional centers of our bodies, and they
put out frequencies that are 10 times the power of the frequencies of our brains.
When we are happy, we vibrate at a higher frequency than when we are angry or sad. Our
emotions change the chemical composition of the water in our systems. That's why happy tears
taste different than tears of sadness.
Many people live life backwards thinking that changing the external environment will
automatically lead to abundance, love, power, freedom, etc. That is an illusion, a manifestation
of the EEQ. No system or institution can confer true freedom, love, or power. That must come
from within. To prove this you need only look at our government. Looking to the government to
solve our problems without first going within to heal the illusion that keeps us powerless,
generally leads to greater problems and pain and suffering long-term. The government can't
rescue people. The people must empower themselves first and use the government as a vehicle to
bring people together for creating structures to empower the people. "We can't solve problems by
using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein.
Nothing and no one can make us a victim. We do it to ourselves when we allow external
circumstances to hold power over us. Although we have no control over what happens to us, we
ALWAYS have a choice in how we respond. We hold our power when we accept complete
responsibility for our thoughts, feelings and actions.
The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.
Wisdom and stress are inversely proportional. Wisdom and stress do not go together. As such
believing in illusion leads to greater stress, which leads to lower wisdom. Greater stress also
leads to greater disharmony in the body. In fact, when we experience stress our cells will shrink,
stop the growth process, and instead go into protective mode and eventually decay and die. So
stress stops growth. Here's the casual sequence:
Environment -> Perception (based on False Belief Systems) -> Greater Stress -> Lower Wisdom;
Physiology goes into 'Protective Mode' which leads to disease state and decay.

• If BE and THINK are both aligned to TRUTH then there is flow and ease. Then THINK
is a servant of SPIRIT since a TRUTH BE is SPIRIT.
• If BE is based on false belief systems and identities, the FEEL will create emotions /
charges that the THINK will react to and compensate by trying to control the external as
that is all it knows. There will be conflict and pain and suffering.
• However, if the THINK is aligned to TRUTH, then the THINK can retrain the BE to the
TRUTH belief systems. This takes patience and perseverance and awareness.
It has been well documented how a person's beliefs will impact their health and the symptoms
they display. If a person truly believes they are ill, then their body will manifest the symptoms
that correlate with that belief. One well documented example of this situation afflicts most
medical students commonly called medical student's disease, wherein they perceive themselves
or others to be experiencing the symptoms of the disease(s) they are studying. The condition is
associated with the fear of contracting the disease in question. This not only afflicts medical
students, but also the public at large who read information online and immediately believe they
must have such and such disease. The belief alone manifests the symptoms and over time the
Stress Response Hormones: Adrenaline (or Epinephrine) and Glucocorticoids. These stress
hormones start a cascade reaction that prepares the body for the fight / flight mechanism that is
part of the sympathetic nervous system. This reaction is not necessarily the issue as it is designed
to support the body for survival when a real physical threat is identified. The problem is when
the threat is purely imaginary, an illusion. The real problem is when the illusion that triggers this
reaction is chronic and long term such as worry over an imaginary future that doesn't exist in
reality. Under chronic exposure to these stress hormones by an illusionary threat, the body
experiences significant health issues as it marinates in these toxic chemicals, including:
physiological changes such as blocked arteries, decayed telomeres, toxic fat build up, weakened
immune response to disease; and various psychological issues such as learning and memory loss,
sleeping disorders, depression, a dulled ability to experience pleasure, easier / quicker to anger,
OCD. All this from a reaction to a false belief system.
When your belief systems are aligned to Truth you experience less stress, greater expansion, a
widening of the field of consciousness, and an openness to receiving. When BElief systems are
aligned to illusion, then you experience greater stress. Why? Because we are natural systems and
we live in a natural world. If we go against nature we are going against ourselves, and are
ultimately hurting ourselves. By aligning our belief systems with natural law we work with
nature, rather than against it, and therefore become one with the whole; we integrate the micro
with the macro.
Stimulus -> BE = Truth -> Response -> Consequence = Joy, Peace, Harmony, Abundance
OR
Stimulus -> BE = Illusion -> Response -> Consequence = Pain & Suffering
Therefore, Belief Systems are cause of everything in our lives as shown in the diagram below.
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself
that you have built against it.”

• I Am Statements: these relate to the knowingness of who we are, and as such, directly
correlate to the Female Principle. The I Am beliefs are the most critical to work on, since
the Female is what receives. If a person cannot receive, then there can be no opening to
receive the Universal Principle.
• Paradigms: these are beliefs of the world / universe 'outside' of us. For example, 'there is
scarcity in the world' is a common false belief. Paradigms therefore correlate to the Male
Principle of the Universal Principles. See article on how science is biased based on the
beliefs of the observer:
http://www.thunderbolts.info/tpod/2010/arch10/100413science.htm.
Truth Belief Systems are always directed toward an expansion of the field of consciousness, such
that there is a more Universal understanding and connection, 'I Am that I Am'. When we expand
our field of consciousness we are able to see things from the perspective of the whole, more
universal, rather than the individual, disconnected self.

Steps to Identify False Belief Systems and Integrate New Truth Based Belief Systems
• Step 1: understand the causal sequence diagram to understand what drives all of human behavior.
• Step 2: journal when you have a lack power, freedom and full self-expression. Get to the root of the belief
system and feel the emotions. See the above text for greater understanding.
o Journaling is perhaps the most important part of this process. To help you get started just start
telling a story of what you're experiencing and feeling. Write about your fears, worries, worst case
scenarios. Understand the truth of what your experiencing and the illusion that you're reacting to.
• Step 3: write the new belief system using the description below. Write about "Who Am I?" Write a
statement of the truth of who you are as a cosmic being. Write about the Universal Principles that shed light
upon the illusion you wrote about. Universal Principles replace the false belief systems about our world and
other people.
• Step 4: use the "Integrating New Belief System and Responding from Truth" diagram to integrate the new
belief system.
• Repeat step 4 continuously to integrate the new belief system.
Communication falls under RESPONSE in the causal sequence diagram above. In life we deal
with people. In fact, 99% of all our issues will generally involve people. So how we
communicate becomes very crucial. Communicating with others is also a release to dissipate the
charge in the emotions. Verbal communication is a giving and receiving from an authentic,
neutral, non-judgmental place. Journaling is great for bringing up awareness of a false belief
system, but once you have the awareness you don't need to journal. You just need to express it in
words to the person triggering you as an outlet to release the emotional charge, and clear the
misperception and pattern. Journaling will not do that as effectively since you're not clearing the
charge with another. In general, you will not need to journal anything that comes up if you're
able to clear the charge with the person who triggered it. By communicating with the person who
triggered the charge you will have the ability to resolve any perceptions issues and come to a
solution that works for everyone. Once you clear the charge, the journaling is not necessary.
A good way to remember this is to recall the "What's Your Story?" line. Essentially, what are
you projecting? If you communicate this to another person you will not only dissipate the charge,
but also address any false belief system that may be getting triggered. This way you clear the
misperception and pattern so it doesn't come up again.
The past, present and future are all in the present now. Energy only exists in the present moment.
Therefore you cannot change the past events or control what will happen in the future. You can
only address your perception of the past experience and release and stuck emotional energy
about it. Your memory is like a computer hard drive; it can be erased and rewritten with a
completely new experience. How you address past experiences is to recreate the past events and
perceive those events from a higher perspective, a more conscious and expansive perspective
with true love and power. What was your perception of those past events? What was the belief
system that had you interpret that event with pain and suffering? Now reinterpret those events
from the perspective of true love and power, applying the Universal Principles. Feel the joy, the
love that comes from that new experience, forgive yourself and others from that place of true
This can be clearly viewed in the causal sequence diagram. If it's coming from the 'THINK', then
it's simply a strategy to cover up an inadequacy in the underlying belief system. So you must
uncover it through the emotions. This is why we emphasized the importance of journaling your
emotions or talking to an emotional life coach (someone you trust) to get to the 'I AM' statements
and story behind your emotions. This journaling process generally leads to an 'Ah Ha!' moment
where you know you have hit on the key belief system and mechanism that you have been
operating under all these years. This is not a THINKING process. This is a FEELING process.
It's not easy to FEEL your emotions because it's sometimes painful. Not only that, but our
THINKING mechanism / ego resists (denies, justifies why not, suppresses the emotions,
escaping your life, and any other mechanism to avoid doing this) this at all costs. In fact, the
more we resist the emotion the more power we feed it. What you resist persists. Instead of
resisting this part of who we are, we need to accept and love ourselves without judgment, to
become whole. Until we accept and love ourselves fully and unconditionally (both the positive
and negative aspects of who we are) we will be fragmented and in conflict with ourselves. An
open, loving heart means we are open to both the positive and negative experiences of life
without judgment. When we know who we are and love ourselves this comes naturally. This
openness is required to receive the principles we are meant to learn from the experience. Our
objective here is not be to "perfect". Our objective is to be whole. That means accepting and
loving ALL of who we are, the dark side and the light.
In fact, the very first statement that we start with is a statement of loving ourselves
unconditionally (the Feminine Principle). Self love is the start of our growth. Therefore, focus
your very first statement on the feminine component of self-love. When we love ourselves we
need not look outside ourselves for love and approval, and we are now open to receiving the
higher principles of life. The opposite of self love is looking to the external for love and
approval. This manifest as fear of rejection (shyness, not speaking up to say our part, playing
small), feeling inadequate, superiority and inferiority, incapable, selling out and going along with
what others feel is best for you, not questioning authority, putting others down to feel relatively
better, defending yourself and actions to get others approval, trying to convince others that you're
The emotions must be felt to release the energy that is trapped in our physiology. Without feeling
the emotion, it's energy cannot be dissipated and therefore, cannot be healed. (Example of this is
Louise Hay having manifested cancer in the uterus even after attempting to program many
positive statements into her subconscious. She was the queen of positive statements, but never
dealt with her emotions. The emotions still had energy and were creating toxicity in her body,
which manifested the cancer. She finally had to FEEL the painful experiences and emotions that
she had supressed for so long, and forgive the ones who hurt her before she can be healed of her
cancer. See http://www.lightconnection.us/Archive/dec06/dec06_article5.htm for full story.)
In addition, behind the painful feelings is the reality of who you're BEing. Once you uncover the
BEing false belief systems, it no longer has power over you. When it's hidden it has power over
you, but when you uncover it, you are aware of it and it no longer has power over you. You now
have choice and can choose a new belief system. From that point forward you can begin to write
a belief system statement using the guidelines below and reprogram your BEing in alignment to
higher truths. That is how you gain true POWER and FREEDOM to be your true, authentic self
in any and all situations.
I want to reemphasize this one last time: without getting to the emotions to uncover the root
false belief system, then any statement will merely be 'lipstick on a pig'.
Q: - "Is it correct when praying to think of God as an impersonal force or energy, everywhere
present; or as an intelligent listening mind, which is aware of every individual on earth and who
intimately knows everyone's needs and how to meet them?"
A: - "Both. For HE is also the energies in the finite moving in material manifestation. He is also
the Infinite, with the awareness. And thus as ye attune thy own consciousness, thy own
awareness, the unfoldment of the presence within beareth witness with the presence without."
Cayce (1158-14)
• In order to get love I must give first and be of service; i.e, I must be in a life of service
where I give to others in order to be accepted and loved by others. Another way of saying
this is that my level of love is based on how much other people love me.
• Scarcity / Deprivation: there's not enough, I am not enough. I am inadequate and
incapable of handling my life. There's not enough resources, money, etc., so I must use
force, control, and manipulation to get what I need to survive.
• Working hard to get somewhere: I have to have this in order to feel this way (i.e., feel at
peace).
• Duality, separation: People that are different and don't believe what I believe are to be
feared and controlled. I judge and try to change and control others because they do not
see the world as I do.
• "I'm a physical being with no spiritual component, just like any animal. After I die, that's
it." You are what you believe. This is a limiting belief system that leads to separation and
disconnection with the infinite. In reality we can consider ourselves one continuous life if
we consider ourselves a continuum of cell division from conception to conception in the
integration of male and female. A new life represents the DNA telomeres being reset,
which resets the biological clock to continue for another life span. So, from this
perspective we are truly an infinite physical being. The only thing that changes is our
IDentity dies. But our IDentity dies anyway as part of the growth process and evolution
while our physical bodies are alive. If we relate to ourselves as an IDentity, then we
really do die. However, if we relate to ourselves as an infinite, cosmic being, then we
never die, we just evolve.
• Unworthy: not open to receiving; instead we sabotage any good opportunity in our life
such as push away people who truly love us. Difficulty in receiving gifts and nurturing
ourselves.
• I need to be special and better than everyone else in order for people to love and approve
of me.
• I must be perfect and not make any mistakes. Otherwise, I'm unworthy and inadequate.
DETACHMENT - Practice the art of detached observation. Let go of automatic defenses and
patterns.
DISCERNMENT - Seek to discern the lower from the higher. What is self-serving and what is
soul-inspired? Discernment carries no judgment. There are no goods and bads. Remain as a
detached witness.
DHARMA - This is an East Indian word meaning "living your unique purpose." How do you
find meaning and fulfillment in ways that are natural to you? How do you best serve and
contribute to the world?
