My understanding is that you are observed in real time by your higher self and it has absolute control in the end over everything you perceive. So the Ra material shouldnt, in reality, be a single material but should in reality be perceived as thousands of different books. If i am correct about how Ra channels then the "ra material" itself adjusts in real time around the reader because it is accepted as being "non logical" it has the same logic system as hallusinogens. "if you accept that it might not be real then you are not attached to its permanent form and allow for you rhigher self to "adjust" it when it feels you need something, a fuzzy memory is a blessing that way. makes you feel like you're following one ideology when in reality its quite different" It works by not forcing you if you believe something to change your opinion, but adjusting the details to the sides of your view step by step as you start to forget things so as to create the impression of one continuous storyline. Therefore, dont be surprised if continued interest in Ra material and the likes produces increasing degrees of communication ending in a revalation by your higher self in person going "oh hi, i've been waiting for you to get to this point, what do we do now that we have this power and a individual personality and a infinite field?" Dunno, hope that viewpoint helps you understand something new! =) RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Richard - 08-23-2012 I don't think spirituality, prayer and meditation are meant to solve our problems. I think they are meant to balance you, to encourage you and give you an inner peace that allows to physically and mentally deal successfully with the catalyst at hand. Given the roadblocks that seem to be coming your way with regards to X-ray type jobs. Kind of makes you wonder if the universe wants you to turn elsewhere. Starting completely over isn't easy. But its doable and if you're successful, you'll wonder why you waited so damn long.

As Ra states: Quote:19.13 RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Jeremy - 08-23-2012 (08-23-2012, 05:00 AM)Parsons Wrote:(08-21-2012, 01:14 PM)Xradfl Wrote: Sometimes I swear these chanellings are arranged in an exact order of my needs this has happened countless times where I'm dealing with a particular issue and the first channeling I read, specifically deals with my issue. Yea I found the info via the hidden_hand info a couple months ago then made my way to Ra then the mountain of channelings outside of the Ra channelings. As soon as I started reading, I took off like a rocket when it came to reading as much as possible. I read at least 5 chanellings a day and generall more. I just can't get enough of it RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Diana - 08-23-2012 My recommendation is to stop reading, stop analyzing, forget about why, and do. Not because those things don't matter, but because of putting energy into forward motion. If thoughts create reality, then all the thoughts must be on creating what you want (as much as possible), rather than on what you don't want (why is everything as it is?). I would expand my horizons a little. Explore possibilities. If you look outside the parameters of your job, it might shift the energy, too. Maybe you start writing an informational book about being an x-ray tech. Maybe you check into more schooling to become a doctor. Anything at all. You may not do any of it, but action is the key here. RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Patrick - 08-23-2012 "...indeed it is the only activity worth doing: to learn/teach or teach/learn..." ~ Ra 1.9 "...However, our very being is hopefully a poignant example of both the necessity and the near-hopelessness of attempting to teach..." ~ Ra 1.9 So my friend, spending all your time learning seems like a good idea. ![]() RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Spaced - 08-23-2012 (08-23-2012, 01:48 PM)Patrick Wrote: "...indeed it is the only activity worth doing: to learn/teach or teach/learn..." ~ Ra 1.9 It is my experience that by spending all your spare time learning then you will naturally assume the role of teacher in any interactions with other-selves. I think the key is to find the individual point of balance between seeking internally and interacting with the world at large where you can accomplish both at once. RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - AnthroHeart - 08-23-2012 I spend the large majority of my free time on this forum. Hence I am learning a lot. It can get pretty diverse even here.

This has long been my suspicion as well, that the material is adjusted by your higher self to reflect your thoughts at the 'time'. Either that or the material was planned out like 20 years in advance for the 3D person to read the channeling session and notice that a recent thought was confirmed by the Ra/Q'uo material.

I get by with what's on this forum and the quotes that people post. That's interesting that the right material comes along when you're ready for it. A lot of times, the right quote will as has been mentioned earlier.

Communication actually starts more directly from the spirit, then more indirectly to mind, then more indirectly still from mind to body. Basically, subtle to less subtle. Here we have the faculty of intuitive perception to connect with spirit, and when that is ignored we have the unconscious emotional feedback at the lower level of mind and body. So if you're working with emotions, you are working within a much more transient, self-distorted framework of your 'personality shell'. This personal complexity and distortion is necessarily an abstraction layer from communication with higher self. As well as it should be to make things safe enough until there is sufficient acceptance. If you think emotions are a perception, or that they are the intuitive faculty, then this would not be what I was saying or meant. I'm using the term "emotions" in a Jungian, psychological context (as with "intuition"). BTW, "lower emotions" can also be due to positive belief structures so gotta balance that one out. Remember, emotions are an unconscious reaction. The more "pure" one is, the more balanced, or less distorted. So things with personal emotive-charge content tend to diminish, becoming more and more subtle as one evolves. This is how it should be, as unconscious reactions would obviously be reduced with more consciousness. What does increase with that "purity", is the capacity for conscious feeling (again in the Jungian sense). http://tap3x.net/ENSEMBLE/mpage3c.html Feeling, intuition and emotion are often confused, possibly due to their common time/space (interiors / from periphery of wholeness) natures. intuition would actually be that perception you're looking for, while feeling would be the active evaluation of something.

Can you explain what you mean by positive belief structures causing lower emotions (that is to say, negative emotions)? It has been my experience, that positive belief structures do the exact opposite of causing negative emotion. Perhaps an example, so I can better understand?

Since, there is no universally accepted definition for feeling, emotion, and intuition, naturally there will be differences in peoples viewpoints. My lens is definitely not a Jungian one. There are some things I can agree with however. As one becomes more balanced, more in tune with the macrocosm, one becomes more conscious. Control over ones thoughts, or focus of consciousness, increases. Since emotions are reactions based on thoughts, control of these increase by default. As a result, there are less contradictions, or distortions, within the balanced being. The emotional state becomes one of complete joy, love, happiness, acceptance, or appreciation. These words all approach, yet fall short, of the permanent state of consciousness we all exist in, but is hidden from our conscious minds by our egoic distortions. The line between intuition, and emotions is very fine. You can't really separate them in my opinion. From my perspective, intuition is a natural byproduct of the interconnectedness of all things. Since, ultimately, outside the illusion of separation, we are all One, we automatically have access to all things unconsciously. We all have access to a sort of omniscience. The reliability of that omniscience is in direct proportion to the clarity of our minds -- a factor of how distorted or imbalanced we are. How distorted we are, is registered, at least partly, by our emotional state. The more distorted you are, less love/light you partake in consciously. Someone at inner peace, feeling love in their hearts, and existing in a state of joy will have a more comprehensive and accurate access to intuition, then someone who lives in a state of emotional disharmony. From my viewpoint, this would be indicative they had eliminated a great deal of the distortions within their consciousness. All distortions are the result of misaligned thought. Though there are differences in our perspectives, I can appreciate, in my own way, where you are coming from. Oftentimes people use different words to describe the same fundamental mechanism, but even so, one can still see the essential mechanism at work in the exchange of seemingly different descriptions.

I find feeling to be a reaction to thought, emotion to be an expression of the feeling or thought, and intuition to be the energy that comes through the crown. As that energy can come from both polarities intuition can be wrong IMO. Or rather manipulated. Of course, we have to have made the choice to accept those positive/negative boundaries in the first place, relying on our feelings, emotions, and beliefs.

The plan of your Higher Self changes with each moment and choice that you make right now. The plan is best tailored to fit your choices and is, ironically, the plan that you are creating for yourself right now. This is because of the simultaneous existence of you in all points of time existing in an eternal present.

Consciousness and awareness are essentially identical as I'm using the term. (08-24-2012, 01:52 AM)anagogy Wrote: The line between intuition, and emotions is very fine. You can't really separate them in my opinion.Ultimately the conscious and unconscious are blended along with the psychological faculties used to perceive and to determine. That's the dialectical monism dynamic. But practically speaking, here, we choose one frame of reference to make the other distinct to consciousness. With intuition we perceive where something is going and from whence it came - without resorting rational analysis. With emotion we have feedback from our unconscious when it has been somehow impressed and made active outside of our awareness.

Since, ultimately, outside the illusion of separation, we are all One, we automatically have access to all things unconsciously.This is just another way of saying time/space perspective. time/space is from all to part, where the intuiting individual would be 'anchored' in time/space (and applying that perception to space/time). That 'all' is all there is. And since we are only pontentially all there is, the perspective is necessarily related to and drawing from the unconscious (i.e. the deep mind). How that intuited perception finds its way to conscious use (in teach/learning) will be totally dependent on the development of one's rational world view.

Obviously, a primary mechanism exists, but it is ineffable. I think we can be descriptive with utility when referring to the mechanisms which are derived from that one source. And I think a lot of that work has already been done by Jung and others who have developed insight from studying themselves and others using a psychological perspective. RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Jeremy - 08-24-2012 So wow what a week. I think it was on tuesday when I wrote about my frustations. I then meditated tried to meditate but was overcome with sorrow and frustration. I simply gave up. Gave up on finding another job within x-ray, gave up on the girl, gave up on ever getting out of this. I tried meditating a little more but it just wouldn't work. I then got up and on my way to work, I was filled with this ridiculous sense of ambition and determination. I went to work, explained to my boss how I was drowning. She then gave me an extra 30 minutes per day plus bumped me up to a 72 hour employee instead of 64 hour which gives me more PDO along with the added hours. Plus she gave me a bunch of shifts that needed to be covered over the next few months instead of giving them to the part time people Found that once I can get my ex off of my insurance after the divorce is filed, I'll save about $170/month so I'm bugging the hell out of her to file. Mailed off child support modifcation request to see if I can either make them make her work since she's voluntarily not working or lower my payments to give her more motivation since it's killing me financially I adjusted my exemption status from 0 back to 1 as I had to keep it at 0 for tax purposes due to having to file single next time due to my impending divorce. Finished Continuing credits needed to renew my xray license then I renewed it Finished a bunch of work related education courses Took the basic life support renewal class While taking the renewal class, I get a call from the hospital position I gave up on. He asked if I could make it in today but I was stuck in the class then had to be at work. He then asked if I was free this weekend so I said definitely. He's gonna come in tomorrow at 9am to interview so I'm pretty stoked considering he's coming in on his day off just to interview me! RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Spaced - 08-24-2012 Sounds like things are starting to turn around for you Xradfl. Ganbare! RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Jeremy - 08-24-2012 Yea I was simply in such a funk after years of being spat on tbh after dealing with everything in regards to my wife's addictions/depression that I just wasn't expecting good things to happen anymore. Once I turned that point of view around, meditated and actively sought guidance and help, it really was quite a change. Sure most of it was my doing since I made the choice to pull myself by proverbial boot straps but I can't help but believe that the meditating really did help RE: Having complete faith in higher selfs plan vs personal ambition - Jeremy - 08-25-2012 Well I got the job! It was the most laid back and surreal interview I have ever had. Now I'm just relaxing during a gala at Cassadega's spiritualist camp to further these psotive feelings. Quite a place full of various mediums, psychics, along with stores with books, crystals, etc. Thanks everyone for the great words of inspiration.
