Inner Pioneers

The Inner Pioneers, by Fred Burke


The Inner Pioneers: We ask questions from the inside out!

s*** happens.
There is no one to blame.
Apologies, forgiveness, and taking personal responsibility
are transformational acts of love!

How am I somehow creating what's happening in my life and world?
How are we co-creating all of this?
How can we help each other to take personal responsibility?
Emphasis on I, but always remembering/considering you and especially We.

These are our big questions.
We welcome all answers.
We do not accept any answer as the Truth with a capital T, yet we welcome your truth and all answers as a part of the truth.

Who am I?
Who are you?
Who are we?
Why do we exist?
Why did the One divide and separate itself?
Why existence as opposed to nothingness?
What are we creating? Why?
Who are we being? Why?

Three key questions:
How am I creating this? (self)
How are you creating this? (other)
How are we co-creating this? (collective)

There are consequences for all of our actions.
All actions are consequential.

We create our energetic experience of reality through however we interpret what happens in each moment. We can change our reality by supporting each other to develop more empowering interpretations and take greater personal responsibility (ability to respond).

The deeper question than "how" is "why."

Rather than provide answers, we prefer to help people frame the questions.

Learning how to be and create as unique individuals in a collective.
Transforming our collective myths and stories.
Going where my consciousness has never gone before.
Helping each other to take personal responsibility for whatever is happening.
Taking personal responsibility to depths I've never plumbed before.

Let's be real with each other.
What's deeper than that?

We can create love. We can generate love within us where there was none before.
Everyone wants to be loved.
Clear, loving intentions can transform our lives and world.

Suppressing emotion creates energetic pockets which eventually will find expression in some way. Intense suppression can lead to major unexpected challenges in the future. Maybe our collective suppression of the shadow plays a huge part in the unfolding of the drama here on planet Earth. When we both individually collectively choose to acknowledge the shadow, and then learn to engage and even dance with it, life transforms.

Don't forget the importance of venting, of allowing full, authentic expression to our emotions in a way that honors all involved. It is generally most empowering not to focus our emotion when venting directly at the individual who was the trigger for our emotions. Encourage getting back to the raw emotion without directing it at anyone.

After fully experiencing the emotion, consider playing with the idea of exchanging "I'm so upset/angry at you for ..." with "I'm so upset/angry at me for ... ", all the while realizing that on the deepest levels, there is no one to blame. And remember that apologies, forgiveness, and taking personal responsibility are transformational acts of love.

What's working for me? For you? For us?
What's not working for me? For you? For us?
Form many questions out of these.

The Inner Pioneers: Where Titans Tread and Fairies Flitter Together

Experiencing and exploring life and the universe as a gigantic hologram.
It's all a game of mirrors. We are mirrors of God unfolding.

I did some major suppressing a long time ago. I did not cry. And then I found myself crying for no reason, only to realize that it was because I didn't back then. It's pointless to lie to yourself.

[airwaves]

Why do people find it so hard to accept unconditional love? Just like was said in your wanderer story thread, they lash out, as if your bringing destruction upon them. I know these answers, but it feels good to ask the questions all the same.

Agreed, Airwaves, Agreed!

Ayadew: I surpressed stuff as well. At the time it was not safe to feel or process... and then finally it was time to empty. I went to a week long sweatlodge ceremony and spent the next 3 weeks crying almost continuously... I barely held it together to work and care for my child. That was 8 years ago. I am still unearthing crap to let go. It is an ongoing process and one that also I do for Humanity and the Earth as part of my soul contract.

Agreed it is pointless to lie to the Self yet we still do. So a way to empty is to ask the right questions and release.

A theory: A person cannot accept more love than they are capable of giving out.

fairyfarmgirl: Feeling great, doesn't it? Crying is one of the fundamentals of being human, yet we are fed the idea to look down upon it. It is the physical response of all release. It is as it should be.

I think for myself--- having a complete meltdown and release was scary because one is vulnerable and unaware of their surroundings during a release like that which I am speaking of... and the natives are often hostile... it is my job to remain embodied... so I often had to wait until a time where I was relatively safe. The people running the sweatlodge though were very very uncomfortable with such a release and transmutation... they felt that I was being too open letting all of my emotions hang out for all to see and interpreted this as an attention seeking type of action. It was painful to be in a space that implied support but really was more about the ego trappings of spirituality.

I love you ayadew. I think that you just hit the nail on the head for a situation I happen to be swimming through(so many catalysts at once grrrrrrr). Should I maybe send them less love? Would they not lash out once more thinking that I no longer feel for them? Is this supposed to be a thread for spiritual questions, or is that every thread @ b4? Lol

I know what you mean. Every time I have had one, a release, I have been told that I just looking for attention, and to get over it. People tend to see massive amounts of love and service as twisted ways of seeking attention as well.

fairyfarmgirl: I see, forgive me for making assumptions. We all experience things differently, and I understand that it can be felt as a very vulnerable state. Indeed, I have got the impression that spirituality from ego is common. Your wiccan-group in your wanderer-thread only mirrored my experience too well... and thus I've decided to stay quite solitary in my spiritual practice.

airwaves: Thank you for being you. Do as you see fit, if they do not appreciate your love, then it could be a good idea to simply let them be and accept them for who they are at this time. You can feel for them without making any physical expression of this, which is perhaps what they feel as annoying.

This thread is now what we've made of it, but the text fairyfarmgirl posted was great.

[airwaves]

Word....... Sometimes I get caught up in seeing what effect my love may be having, instead of just being satisfied that I did good and that they are happy with it no matter how silent they may be. This is also probably quite annoying. lolololol And another great truth occurs on b4. It is amazing to see that I can be so loving yet such a butt head at the same time, lol. Thank you sir!

nice words i fully resonate with

Ayadew:

For many years I considered myself a solitary natural witch... in the wiccan community when I would show up for something... they called me (and in a hissing voice I might add) a "kitchen witch." LOL at the time I was quite offended but now I find it quite funny! LOL Anyone who partakes of the foods I make come away feeling like they have never had anything so good as what they have eaten. They ask for my recipes and I give them out freely... but no one can make it quite like fairy. LOL I always instruct them to think good thoughts whilst cooking... but not many are schooled in morphogenectic fields.
Solitary practice has been a gold mine of experience for me and it was as it was necessary to be... if I had tried to blend in and became indoctrinated in their "wiccan bs" I would not have expanded into awareness as I have done. It was very challenging though to go at it alone, though.

[ayadew]

Challenging truly. But you have only yourself to depend on, no outside authoritative source that says that you're wrong or right. This I find immensely empowering once you find something that resonates deeply. It is the only path for me.
Lol hissing voices! very amusing when you write it like that, it's great you find it funny too!
I will remember your cooking advise!

[fairyfarmgirl]

If you truly wish to learn more about morphogenetic fields check out the work of Dr. Emoto. Of course I learned about the morphogenetic fields long before I learned of Dr. Emoto. It is basic spell work/intention/prayer/herbalism...

I once met a plant shaman who told me a secret. The secret is any plant will do anything that you ask it to if you phrase your asking correctly and with the correct energy and prayers and offerings. He of course was teaching me the art of morphogenetic fields... it is all the same energy and outcome--- just different methods of generating the field of energy that links with the plant/mineral/water/animal/EARTH/GAIA.

Thank you for posting this piece, FFG.

We can change our reality by supporting each other to develop more empowering interpretations and take greater personal responsibility (ability to respond).... Transforming our collective myths and stories.

Amen! That's why I'm on this forum.

Encourage getting back to the raw emotion without directing it at anyone.

My belief is that it always come down to a feeling of being abandoned by an uncaring God, left adrift, helpless and alone, in a world one can't make any less painful. I believe this is the fundamental raw feeling that underlies every other type of hurt.

Understanding that intellectually is far different than being free of that hurt. I imagine that true freedom from that underlying pain may be a long term journey for me, an extended process.

After fully experiencing the emotion, consider playing with the idea of exchanging "I'm so upset/angry at you for ..." with "I'm so upset/angry at me for ... "

If the original feeling has fully been expressed and loved, and this can be done in a spirit of playful exploration with joyous curiosity, it could be a helpful tool. However, it seems to me to be as risky as handling radioactive material. For one thing, it could be used as a tactic to get someone to shut up already about how they feel. For another, it could be used as a tactic to try to blame the victim and justify the abuser. These common misuses of the idea, as a weapon of power against someone who hurts, make me very wary about it.

Not sure if I'm treading or flittering today.

I've encountered that betrayal myself. It is a sad and painful thing to be attacked and hurt by those who held themselves out as gentle, loving healers.

My, I would love to get to visit for dinner some time.

Is this supposed to be a thread for spiritual questions, or is that every thread @ b4?

If "spiritual" means "having to do with the Creator," and all of us and every moment are the expression of the Creator, then what question could possibly not be spiritual?

---

I once met a plant shaman who told me a secret....

That's a very interesting secret! It seems to me that means that first and second density are ready to love us according to whatever we expect will be their love.

Guys, I love the discussion of love.

[fairyfarmgirl]

Questioner, I agree the piece is not perfect as written by Fred Burke... it does have value though... In a space of personal safety... I have found that if I ask myself why I am making myself feel such and such that the answers that I give mySelf lead to greater understanding of Self and others. It empowers me to act with greater Love toward others and my Self.

Love--
