RE: Untangling New Age 'Spiritual' Confusion: "What You Resist Persists"
"It will persist because we let it persist"
Exactly. The only Truth lies within onself. When we follow external beliefs we'll eventually play victim and blame others for our misery. "I didn't want that in the first place" is the common mindset then. Everything is happening against us, not for us. Yet nothing can ever happen to us unless we give our consent. "Acceptance creates Harmony", as it goes.
I too agree on the escapism of negativity within spiritual communities. In fact, meditating for me has never been something to avoid negativity. Instead, meditating brought forth inner fears and deeply buried emotions so that they could finally be released. Here again, Acceptance was key. I would wake up in the middle of the night and literally feel how my body released density and my body became lighter.
The escapism from negativity is a temporary result of heightened sensitivity to simply give that signal: stop listening to others, YOU have to know what is true for you and what not.
Great article! Keep it up ;)
Well, not really... you can get assaulted, raped, or stuff stolen, and you didn't give consent... :/
As difficult as it might seem to understand, our Soul wants these experiences for the learning to raise its vibration. Balancing lifetimes, when were in the perpetrator role one life, we'll experience the victim role in another. All contributing to our Soul's learning. But again, these concepts are quite intricate, and we'll resonate or not.
Thanks for your comment! :)
