HEALING TRAUMA – THE CURSE OF MEMORY

Now, many of my Blog Readers, because they are human, because they are learning Lessons, they experience emotional injuries. These learning experiences occur in the younger years, primarily, but obviously one may experience the negative emotions throughout life. The habitual re-creation of negative emotion within consciousness creates these emotional injuries we speak of in the new Blog Series. These injuries may be seen within the Emotional Body of the individual, in the dream state, or in other altered states of awareness, such as in Trance, during prayer, during the Guided Visualization, and so on. It is therefore, to the altered states that we go, as explorers, as Scientists of Consciousness, to discern the specifics of your own emotional injuries.

These events from the past protect themselves. They hide from your view, in a sense, for the content is often so negative, as in shameful, you see, that the ego/intellect cannot handle it. This material is continually forced back into the subconscious, or the underworld, if you prefer, by your conscious mind. Over the years there may be brief attempts by the Soul Self to reveal to the conscious mind these emotional injuries, yet they are most often denied, “repressed,” as we say. This continual denial of these secret volatile elements of consciousness serves to give this information more explosive power. This dark side of the human consciousness is thus relegated to the Unknown Reality, where it festers over time.

Now the brief interludes of perception in which this material is accessed by the conscious mind may be appropriately called “flashbacks,” using the term from our english vernacular. In a flash, in an instant, the images, thought, emotion and other data is served to the present conscious mind for appreciation, for healing, you might say. These breakthroughs into consciousness you might call “the curse of memory,” for they do arrive unbidden by the human experiencing them. So in an attempt to re-define these experiences and thus heal them, we may begin to call the Healing Signals of memory. They are indeed signals from the interior of consciousness as to what MUST be addressed. Let us have an example here to illustrate what we mean.

DEPRESSION

The depressed person ritually creates negative value, the fuel for negative, unconsciously-produced realities. In so doing, they incur a muted sense of satisfaction. They have Issues, you see. They are feeling as though they are fulfilling their roles as a depressed person by creating the depressed state. But imagine that they are now receiving guidance from an awakening human. They are changing their thoughts, emotions, imagery, and finding that this accent on the positive has results in the physical world. They are producing positive value and it is becoming habitual. Soon they are free from depression. Indeed, soon they are ecstatically co-creating their Personal Reality through their Higher Centers of Awareness.

HEALTH

Symptoms = Signals

As you address what you feel are probable Issues that you would like to resolve with regards to your health, please think in terms of Signals from the Emotional Body rather than the very loaded term symptoms. Conduct the Reading the Emotional Body Exercise from earlier in the Blog Series. Ask your Inner Self what might receive are often literal descriptions of the Issue or perhaps symbolic representations. These readings contain the necessary information for healing and transforming the Issue. Use your own judgement and Inner Senses assessments as you diagnose and treat your malady. Additionally, we have given you hundreds of pages of material on healing in our new Blog Series. I refer you there for more specific information.

WHAT IS YOUR HEART’S DESIRE

First it is a good idea to determine what you will be creating. In this simple exercise we will explore which of the realms of human experience you would like to improve with your Ritual practices. Now there are the obvious choices for exploration that include the domains of health, wealth, spiritual understanding, and so on. The Techniques and Strategies that we offer you in this Blog Series may be successfully applied to any reality improvement projects you may devise. As we go through the following material, please keep in mind what we have given you thus far. These are simply some generaly directions on how to go about creating your own Regimens.

INTENTIONAL CREATION

Now in their most simplified form, the Regimens entail Embodying the Precepts after you have personalized them, and, if you are the spiritual sort, after you have invoked your Higher Centers Awareness. You might describe the Regimens as a type of “test drive.” You are taking your new reality out for a ride to see if you enjoy the effects. If you like what you see, what you are making, continue the Embodiment. Soon it will become a positive habit, replacing the mundane or negative realities you were working on.

HOLDING ON AND LETTING GO

Again, this perspective we epouse is not the experiencing of the free flowing moment, the moment of no-attachment. Rather it is a FULL moment of understanding, Courage and transformation. An example: In this full moment I am describing, as you empower it with your Intent, you are engaged in quite the opposite behaviors as are most of your colleagues in physical reality. You are not stumbling forward in the Common Trance, the state of consciousness that supports consumerism and blind obedience to authority. You ARE, in fact, claiming, or perhaps re-claiming the sacred perspective honors the integrity and authority of the individual. Within this state of consciousness you are inner-directed and naturally abide by the suggestions of your greater creative personality. Do you understand this important difference?

Now it is true that I am giving you something more to do than simply fantasize about what breakfast cereal you might buy. Indeed, these practices supplant and spontaneously replace en masses the negative ruminations, self-limiting images and emotional content that tie you to the creation of mundane and negative realities. Choose the appropriate Dynamic according to circumstances.

ATTACHMENT

These exercises may appear to be somewhat daunting to the Blog Reader. Yes, I am asking you to think about your moment-to-moment reality. I am suggesting that you keep certain principles in mind as you do. It may seem to be a lot of work to some, particularly to those who have been taught that the way awaken is to NOT focus on the current moment, but to, in a sense, “float” along without attachment. Yet, I believe that my systems also allows for a letting-go, a going with the flow in the moment. This occurs simultaneously with the engagement of these other Dynamics, these perspectives. You could almost say that it is in the theorized midpoint of these Dynamics that the release is experienced.

Between Remembering and Embodying, for example, there is an opportunity for release, for experiencing the flow of manifestation. It is in fact this release into the flow of Reality Creation that sustains all of these Dynamics of consciousness manifestation that we have identified. You might call this release, this surrender to the flow, as the experiencing of the Moment Point or the Point of Power that I have described to you in my Blogs. The current moment is all you have, dear Blog Reader. Surrender into this moment and feel your power.

PERSONALIZING THE DYNAMICS

These Resonance Dynamics yield greater positive effects when the Practitioner personalizes them with their own criteria, just as with the other Essential Metaphors. The process of adapting these potential states of consciousness to your own Journey of Awakening is exactly the same. For example: Suppose you are experimenting with the concept of Learning and Finishing-Up, the first Resonance Dynamic we cover, and perhaps the most important one generally for the student. You are “trying on” this Essential Metaphor to see if you can make some improvements in your life. In other words, whenever you have a full moment of clarity in your waking existence and you remember that you are on a Journey of Awakening, you Embody this Dynamic. So in this momentary awakening you might consider honestly the Lessons of your existence as you understand them.

Remember, your Lessons are easily available to you through asking your friends and family, “What is your opinion of me? What do you think I am here to learn?” Their honest assessments of you are the beginning of your awakening to the True Self. If you have done self-explorations and you know a bit about your Lessons from that investigation, go with that material. The point is, in this full moment of understanding in your waking world, you are asking yourself this question: “What can I do now in this moment to become more aware of my Lessons, and to, in some way, begin or continue to deal with them for the highest good of all?”

The second component, here, that of Finishing-Up, is a little more complex to negotiate. It entails having an awareness and appreciation for your eventual Transition, your own physical death. Having an ongoing appreciation for your Transition into the non-physical world has great value for you. This state of consciousness holds a quickening of perception, so that you are continually reminding yourself of what is important in your life, and what you must do during your time on the planet. This is not morbid thinking or gallows humor. Paradoxically there is often discovered through this perspective true ecstasy and enjoyment of life. Again, this is not negative thinking but a positive awareness for the truth of your existence.

RUMINATION REPLACEMENT

Now negative ruminations are the creative material for negative realities, as you know. Your Wondering assessments and other Techniques work to replace these negative ruminations with affirmative ruminations. These become the basis for the creation of positive realities. Your consciousness pulls from this material what it needs to create your heart’s desire.

You could say that the Practitioner moves from dissonance or resonance with a small “r,” that may also be described as static, lower frequencies, the Worst Case Scenario, unconscious creation… to Resonance, a state that is marked by congruence, higher frequencies, the Best Case Scenario, conscious creation, and so on.
