Thinking love, not feeling it

[kristina]

To me, the term Love comes with embedded misunderstanding, much like the term God.  The word itself is a closed concept and places an expectation that is is something to given, taken, and even achieved.  Emotional love, the serotonin drenched brain state is not the point.  Those chemicals come and go naturally.  Placing the expectation on yourself that they be present in maximum quantities at all times is unrealistic and will leave you feeling like a failure when your brain takes a much needed rest.

Acceptance and understanding is the point.  Can you accept what/who you are experiencing and understand that it TOO is a manifestation of the Infinite Creator?   Can you do this for yourself?  If you can work into your perception the acceptance and understanding that everything in your awareness is the point, then you will find your being in a present state of love.  

I think the real job for us here in 3D is acceptance because our faculty for understanding is severely limited.  For me, I can say I understand my perceptions, but I really think I'm saying I accept them as part of the creation and the Law of One.

A few quotes:

Ra, in 5.2 says "Each acceptance smoothes part of the many distortions that the faculty you call judgment engenders."

Ra 46.9 "Acceptance is the key to positively polarized use of catalyst."

Tao 10 says 'Can you bear heaven's children in all that you do and are?"  I love that one.

This is love.  For me, anyway.

 Emotional love, the serotonin drenched brain state is not the point.  Those chemicals come and go naturally.

This is part of the chemical body and the way I understand it to be, this is part of the experience until you discover something much deeper. I feel this chemical and energy exchange when I around my best friend and lover. It is a part of the experience.

Placing the expectation on yourself that they be present in maximum quantities at all times is unrealistic and will leave you feeling like a failure when your brain takes a much needed rest.

I think feeling like a failure is also part of the experience and it can be part of our journey especially once we have awakened as this seems to be in your response a type of catalyst. The body is the product of the mind.

64.20 ▶ Questioner: In the healing exercises, when you say examine the sensations of the body, do you mean those sensations available to the body via the five senses or in relation to the natural functions of the body such as touching, loving, sexual sharing, and company, or are you speaking of something else altogether?

Ra: I am Ra. The questioner may perceive its body complex at this moment. It is experiencing sensations. Most of these sensations or in this case, nearly all of them, are transient and without interest. However, the body is the creature of the mind. Certain sensations carry importance due to the charge or power which is felt by the mind upon the experience of this sensation.

For instance, at this space/time nexus one sensation is carrying a powerful charge and may be examined. This is the sensation of what you call the distortion towards discomfort due to the cramped position of the body complex during this working. In balancing you would then explore this sensation. Why is this sensation powerful? Because it was chosen in order that the entity might be of service to others in energizing this contact.

Each sensation that leaves the aftertaste of meaning upon the mind, that leaves the taste within the memory shall be examined. These are the sensations of which we speak.

93.11 ▶ Questioner: I would like, if possible, an example of the activity we call Catalyst of the Mind in a particular individual undergoing this process. Could Ra give an example of that?

Ra: I am Ra. All that assaults your senses is catalyst. We, in speaking to this support group through this instrument, offer catalyst. The configurations of each in the group of body offer catalyst through comfort/discomfort. In fact all that is unprocessed that has come before the notice of a mind/body/spirit complex is catalyst.

*the senses of the yellow ray, chemical body. This would include the chemical serotonin. Serotonin would provide an opportunity for a sexual energy exchange, or further work done in the red, orange, green or indigo ray depending on how balanced the entity is.
I do not look at these experiences as negative or silly per se as this is part of our experience as a human being. It also can indicate where growth can take place. And always, it can indicate how asleep an other self or self is. This is a great tool and the chemical body, in my opinion, is a spiritual tool as it provides opportunity for spiritual growth.
