Divine Adjustment
Accident, mishap and physical illness are energetic adjustments, intended to guide energy of awareness toward alignment with the essence of infinite, all-encompassing Love (Truth).
The need for these forms of adjustment can be largely circumvented by the one who heeds their more subtle forms of inner guidance. (Note: Some extreme forms of adjustment may have been chosen by you as part of your life plan)
Specifically, guidance into alignment with Truth is always being offered in the form of feeling. However, mental conditioning is such that ego leads awareness to avoid uncomfortable or painful feeling with layers of mental occupation, until more extreme forms of guidance (accident, mishap, illness) are made inevitable.
Mental occupation is marked by activity that distracts your awareness from the feeling at hand. It could be in the form of thoughts about how things will be better when you are through what’s happening now, or the compulsion to engage in activity for the purpose of passing time.
When mental occupation is noticed, you can stop doing, and start breathing deeply, just being with the feeling and noticing the thoughts that come with that feeling.
In this way, you become aware of what thoughts the feeling is bringing up. From that awareness, you can decide whether uncomfortable or painful feeling thoughts are still necessary according to what meaning you give to them.
Do this with devotion to the Truth that every thought is born in delusion, and no meaning will be given to the thoughts as they come up. In this way, you dismantle the structure of fear that gives credence to the underlying belief, and that belief loses it’s magnetic affixation to your energy of awareness.
As more thoughts that provide structure for fearful belief move out of the way, you can see more and more clearly the direction in which your energy of awareness is being ‘asked’ to shift; and to the degree that you follow that subtle voice, there is no need for more extreme forms of guidance.
Of course, if you experience extreme suffering, it serves you to remember that you have received a Divine adjustment, and that there is a purpose for that suffering. Continue to breathe through the thoughts about pain, victimhood, blame and resentment (forms of fear) in the same manner, and seize this opportunity for deep healing to occur.
Fearless Love
The love that you feel for anyone in your perception is emotional - energy that is constantly in flux between polar opposites of conditional love and fear. Emotion is the feeling response to what’s being imagined, and every feeling is entirely dependent upon the imagined comparison to its polar opposite.
In this way, the more you believe your emotional love to be real, the more you are magnetizing fear for your experience.
Specifically, by believing in the truth of feeling, the belief that ‘separation is truth’ is also activated on a subtle level. Belief in separation creates a tension in the mind that makes love feel extreme (anxious), and extreme feeling is an indication that its opposite polarity has been activated, and is now being attracted for your experience.
Your true identity is Love that transcends imagination - it remains consistent irrespective of what is perceived. Simply by remembering, during moments of extreme emotion, that you create your own feeling, and that your ability to create is not dependent upon the 'other' - you allow beliefs in separation to be dissolved.
As beliefs are dissolved, fragments of self also dissolve, and a state of wholeness arises from within. From the perspective of wholeness, emotional love (and all feeling) is still experienced, but now with a depth that knows no fear.
You Are Never Wrong
You have never been wrong, and there is no reality to what you call a mistake. You may be aware that there are some things in your memory that you would like to have done differently, but judging your self as wrong for having done them can only create suffering for you.
Because the subconscious mind is programmed to seek pleasure and avoid pain, what you have deemed wrong about your self must be repressed in order for you to feel happy. Specifically, in response to an impression of judgment that causes you emotional pain, the mind creates a division using calculation and reason to protect you from feeling the emotion associated with that judgment.
In this regard, it benefits you to be present within every emotion, and to notice the thoughts associated with your emotions. Doing this with the remembrance that your thoughts are not your own (and that you choose whether to believe them) will allow you to transcend the trappings of victimhood and experience more pleasurable states of mind (“realities”).
You actually have no control over your behavior as it is compulsive based on all thought that has gone before. If you would like to behave differently than you did in memory, you have only to Be different by shifting your energy of awareness to a lighter (less judgmental) vibration.
Judging and then trying to control your self only creates internal struggle and further frustration every time the repressed aspect of self re-emerges. But appreciation for all things exactly as they have been created (including all that you have ever done) allows your self to easily learn necessary lessons of Love, and enjoy this lifetime more deeply.
You are never wrong, and you are never right either – You are simply Divine.

Experienced yet Innocent
Your story is unique to you, but like you, everyone in the world has judged themselves as being a victim at some point in their life. That self judgment, created through your perception of your experience, formed a belief that you need to be in control - which attached to your awareness through emotion (energy in motion).
Unpleasant emotional energy consumes a portion of your limited awareness as egoic mind endeavors to protect you from the feeling by controlling the specifics of your life. However, ego only knows your own beliefs, thus it consumes much of your precious energy trying to figure Life out from a very limited resource of information.
Every time you perceive that something went “wrong”, which causes you to experience uncomfortable or painful emotion, more judgments are created about the egoic "need" to protect you from people, circumstances and even yourself. In this way, it's natural to feel a greater need for control as you continue to accumulate life experience.
Just imagine if you could return to the innocence you were born with while still having the benefit of your experience for the adjustment of your perception. You can! And it starts with awareness of your perceived need to control anything, deep breath - and letting it go.
As you look for them, you will begin to see the self judgments that caused you to develop the perception that you "need" anything or that things "should" be different - and as you see, you are healed.

Emotion Exposes Limiting Beliefs
Whether we are focused on the present moment or any other point in time or space, we are commanding creation through the energetic vibration of every conscious and subconscious thought that we project.
Emotion allows us to determine whether our current point of focus is projecting for anything that we want to manifest. Our present feeling indicates how our projected manifestation will feel based on the beliefs we currently follow.
Our present manifestation and corresponding emotion is always perfect based on all thought that has come before. Most of that thought has been involuntary as we have simply believed the thoughts presented by the mind, and they became our truth.
To create new momentum requires new beliefs, which can be created through consistent attention to our feelings and deliberate redirection of our thought patterns. If we are feeling anything other than blissful, we are attuned to self limiting beliefs in the mind.
With attention, we can identify those beliefs and offer thoughts that feel better. There is no limit to how good our thoughts can feel because whatever we sincerely believe is our truth.
When we follow our thoughts into a feeling place we don't like, the point where we redirect our thoughts sets a precedent for our emotional low point with respect to the subject point of focus. This makes it easier to turn the tide the next time we find ourselves riding the same or similar thought wave.
As we continue this practice, we can create new belief patterns and then release them as we systematically raise our emotional set point higher.
Every moment is a new beginning, and we can only begin from our current feeling place by offering thoughts that we can believe in the present moment. How far we progress in this lifetime depends on how patient and compassionate we are with ourselves.
Specifically, belief patterns are hard wired biologically, and breaking free from them requires cooperation from our ego. If we judge or condemn ourselves for not attaining what we think we should, we create resistance which impedes our progress.
The feelings we project are the same feelings we are attracting. Everything in our experience is a lesson, and depending on how we perceive what has already been created, we project for what comes next.
When in an uncomfortable or painful emotion, breathe deeply and remember that you are not limited to the limitations of mind. Simply appreciate the lesson and allow it to guide your progression toward the experience of your Divine essence.
Transformation and Discomfort
We wear patterns of emotional dissonance like shrouds that resist the Light of our consciousness and distort our perception of reality. This emotional "baggage" becomes part of our personality, and when we release it, we give birth to a new concept of self.
There is bound to be some discomfort and sorrow with this kind of transformation, but the reward, if we persevere, is a deeper understanding of Self - which means more clarity, creativity and Joy.
Independent Thought Shifts Collective Consciousness
Collective consciousness is the belief patterns projected by all people in a shared environment . From within our homes, neighborhoods and places of work to our cities, countries and even the entire world - individual human thought is largely dictated by the mental habits that prevail within that environment.
Like always attracts like, and onto itself it is drawn. This is a fundamental law of the Universe. Even though opposite poles attract, they must have a resonant vibration, otherwise they will repel each other.
The thought patterns that each individual has projected from this and all previous lifetimes determines the environment in which they find themselves now. This is because humans are attracted to other humans by virtue of mental energy - the coalescence of which determines collective consciousness for a particular environment - and collective consciousness dictates our default perception of shared environments.
Most of us do not yet realize the power we have to affect our shared environments because we are conditioned to believe that the reality we know is created by "others", and that change must be preceded by undue suffering, struggle or even war. Whether there are arguments in our homes, gossip in our workplace, dishonesty in our government, or hunger in our world - the human ego seeks to lay blame on something, someone, or some group of people that appears to be outside of the Self.
But no one is separate from the whole, and each individual is the same energy that has contributed to the creation of all belief patterns in the shared mind that manifest in our individual and shared reality. If we find ourselves or anyone else suffering, it's because we have believed in our own limitation and/or we have judged those we perceive as "others".
This does not mean that anything is our fault. The human mind is born in limitation because limitation is the basis of a material reality, and we are not held liable or judged by anyone but ourselves.
However, everything is our responsibility in that the ego commands the creative force to manifest according what we have projected, and we have the ability to project that which can create the change we seek. Only by accepting responsibility, embracing our uncomfortable feelings, and forgiving ourselves for projecting the thought patterns that have created conflict, can we effectively shift (instead of reinforce) the beliefs being projected by collective consciousness.
Applying the Practice
When we notice anything we do not like, we can transmute our uncomfortable emotional energy to calm deliberate energy - and create new momentum for ourselves with the following process:
- Take a moment to realize that what we are perceiving is a reflection of what we have projected
- Direct our awareness to the feeling that realization creates in the body
- Breathe deeply into the uncomfortable feeling while forgiving ourselves for having projected it
- Once we feel the uncomfortable feeling shift to calm excitement, offer thoughts that match what we want to create
Similarly, when we notice anything we do like, we can use the resultant happy emotion to focus our creative energy to attract more of what we prefer with the following process:
- Take a moment to realize that what we are perceiving is a reflection of what we have projected
- Direct our awareness to the feeling that realization creates in the body
- Breathe deeply into that feeling while thanking the creative force (which is the broader aspect of ourselves) for the manifestation
- Offer thoughts of appreciation for what we are receiving instead of worry or dread over the experience coming to an end in a future that does not exist
Perhaps the best place to test and develop this practice is within the home or workplace because we can easily evaluate and refine our ability on a smaller scale. For example, if we perceive a family member, boss, client or coworker as angry - for the final step of this process we can offer thoughts that change our perception of them to being jovial, kind, romantic or whatever we most prefer.
What to Expect
As we consistently and deliberately shift our mental energy, we will begin to notice that the people and behavior we are attracting starts to shift. On a subconscious level, our new perspective invites everyone who experiences our energy to shift their thought patterns into alignment with what we are projecting.
As our new perspective becomes more believable in our perception, our energy is becoming very different. Thus, the people we have previously associated with can only continue to be attracted to us if their energy continues to resonate with ours by virtue of the belief patterns they are choosing to follow.
In this way, unhappy relationships and situations will easily fall away in favor of those that resonate with our new perspective. During these transitions, fear can permeate our thoughts, and it can be very tempting to return to our old belief patterns in order to maintain the status quo. This is because the ego is programmed to fear what it does not know.
However, if we persevere we will reap all the benefits of our efforts by creating a more Joyful reality for ourselves, while contributing to the creation of a more Joyful reality for the entire world. While our own energy is a small contribution to global consciousness, every person who experiences us is also changed on an energetic level, and as the new patterns of belief are supported by more individuals, our once unorthodox perception of reality will become a mental habit that Earth's present inhabitants and future generations are drawn toward.
Celebrate your independence by making a commitment to offer independent thought no matter what else is happening, and be the one to start a new momentum for yourself and for our shared reality.

Lose (or Gain) Weight with Self Love
Diets are about struggle and deprivation. We subscribe to them because we falsely believe that we must sacrifice in order to attain a healthy physique.
Whenever we resist anything, it manifests more in our experience. This means that as long as we are focused on losing weight, we are attracting weight gain. We may be able to force our bodies into submission for a time (or even entire lifetimes), but struggle around weight and food will continue to be our experience unless we redirect the vibration that we are projecting.
In order to manifest our perfect body easily, it helps to visualize ourselves at our ideal weight, and feel the sensation of being there whenever thoughts about the body cross the mind. This releases tension around the subject of weight and transforms our normally self limiting beliefs about losing or gaining weight to beliefs that promote healthy weight.
Regularly releasing tension is essential for achieving optimal weight because thoughts about struggle or sacrifice create mental tension which causes us to hold on to excess emotional and physical baggage. Many times, that baggage is manifested as the body's holding of excess body weight.
However, in the case of those who have difficulty gaining weight - their emotional/physical baggage is such that it prevents the nervous system from transmitting the signals necessary for digestion and utilization of nutrients. Some peoples' emotional states swing so drastically that they shift between being overweight and underweight many times throughout their lives.
Unless we regularly practice releasing tension, weight issues continue to accumulate as we accumulate tension in response to our life experience. This is why weight issues tend to be exacerbated as we age.
Any diet that feels like struggle is bound to create more struggle around the issue of weight. Only from the feeling of physical well being do we become a vibratory match for the our ideal, healthy weight and overall vitality.
When we already feel like we are at our ideal weight, our eating and activity habits naturally move into alignment with that feeling. There is no deprivation here. We simply eat what we like and engage in the physical activities we enjoy. But without the added feelings of guilt, resentment, etc., we want what feels good on every level - body, mind and being.
Use your mental energy to align yourself with the beautiful and carefree physique that has always been yours, and heal your weight issues with the power of Self Love.

Thought Creates all Punishment and Blessings
The Being that transcends the human level of awareness includes all human consciousness, is not limited by any concept of mind, and it certainly does not punish any part of itself. While there are many levels of consciousness in existence, every level is intricately connected to all others, and every conscious being is an integral part of the single Self that is existence.
In the same way that humans rely on cellular awareness for sensory feedback, the part of Self that is “above” human awareness, and even the great Being that is the whole of existence relies on the sensory feedback that humans transmit via our brain wave vibration. Because humans sense the material world through the workings of mind, we apply thought to everything that we sense in our material reality.
Every human thought causes the brain to emanate specific vibratory patterns that inform the transcendent part of Self as to what is being asked for our material experience. Whatever we focus upon is created for us by the part of our consciousness which cannot be experienced through our thought-based awareness.
Specifically, with every thought there is a focal point, and that point of focus is what we are requesting to experience more - whether we really want it or not. Because our brains are programmed to receive information from the mind (see Mind: The False Master), we tend to unconsciously focus in a manner that requests the transcendent realm of Self to deliver what we might consider “punishment”.
Through our conditioning over many lifetimes, we have come to believe that by using the cleverness of the human mind we can avoid punishment. In fact, we have come up with rules and laws that are based on the belief that if we follow a certain code of conduct, we will not be punished.
But in reality, we create our own punishment, not through our acts, but through our thoughts. Only our thoughts, through brain wave vibration, have the power to command creation and draw like circumstances, people and events into our experience.
Fortunately we humans are able to receive messages from our non-human Self via emotion. While we communicate messages with the unseen part of us via thought vibration, we receive messages from our higher consciousness in the form of emotion which can be felt in the body.
This makes it quite simple to determine whether our thoughts are asking for something pleasing because if we would not like what we are creating, we receive a message of discomfort in the form of feeling. Because we continue having thoughts that evoke extreme emotion over time, we develop a “shadow self” which is the cause of physical and mental tension, discomfort, pain and disease.
The individual human shadow consists of memorized sensory stimuli which has a vibratory link to specific thought patterns in the mind. Since every thought pattern evokes a specific emotional response, even if the present circumstance is in no way related, we may find ourselves in an emotional state.
The shadow causes our emotions to remain hidden within the layers of mind because we are not willing to look upon any part of Self that is viewed by the ego as detrimental to the self image. Since we are largely identified with the mind, we tend to believe the validity of this egocentric fear, and we protect the self image instead of facing the feelings that keep creating our punishment.
But our self image is only the false sense of Self that has been created for presentation of Self, as it is individually focused, in the material world. Emotions are in no way a representation of the true Self. Unresolved emotion is simply baggage that the human aspect of Self accumulates from having a life experience, and by becoming aware of them - we can release them from our psyche.
In order to turn punishment into blessings, we must be alert to the messages being received via feeling, and to the simultaneous thought pattern that we are transmitting. Once any feeling and associated thoughts have been identified, the emotion loses some or all of its vibratory charge in the present moment.
From there, we can redirect the thoughts around the subject point of focus to something that is more pleasing or less tense. This is not lying to yourself because your reality is only a manifestation of what you believe, and changing your beliefs to create a Joyful feeling is the whole purpose of the human experience.
Provided that we practice awareness without judgment or any other thought that would evoke more uncomfortable emotion, over time we will expose and release more of the emotions that are hidden in our psyche. Not only does this practice get easier with repetition, but over time the emotions become less powerful.
Make it a point to relax and be aware of yourself, breathe deeply and turn fear into inspiration so that you can keep releasing accumulated emotions and be the beneficiary of blessings today and every day.
Joy Equals Success
In the illusion of separation we have developed the idea that we are in competition with each other, and that our success is measured by how well we achieve as compared with one another. In order to determine how we fit in with the world, we contrast things like our own wealth, level of education, status, rank, assets, age, beauty etc. against other people in our experience.
Following this mindset, we feel proud and happy when we perceive ourselves as winning or having gotten the upper hand against another person or group of people; while the perception that we have lost, are losing, or that we are "less than" anyone causes emotional discomfort and even pain. In business transactions, many of us feel gratified if we believe we have received the better end of a bargain - even if that means taking unfair advantage of another person.
Because we have lost sight of our true power, many of us seek to manipulate people or situations as necessary to avoid losing at all costs. But the more we strive to win, the more we create discord between our vibratory offering and the source of all blessings and abundance.
Specifically, while we may create the perception that we are winners because we have gained a material advantage, in this way we also deepen the mental conditioning that our value is dependent on our ability to be more, do more or get more than other people. This validates our egocentric feeling of separation from everything else, which causes mental tension and fear around the possibility of losing.
Because we expend most of our mental energy on our endeavors to “get ahead”, our vibratory offering serves to disconnect us from the part of Self that is the source of total WellBeing. As we continue from the feeling of separation and fear, we tend to rely mostly upon our basic human will to compete as our life's radar - which makes our sense of well being dependent on whether we win or lose.
When our feelings are dependent on how things turn out, we create conflict and dis-ease in our bodies and in the world. The more we do to gain control over people and circumstances, the more illness we create for ourselves through our attachment to outcomes, and for the world by the way we project ourselves into it.
Even if we accumulate massive wealth or achieve the highest esteem amongst our colleagues, we cannot be fulfilled until we have attained Joy that is not dependent on circumstance or accomplishment.
As we seek the emotions of proud/happy/worthy through circumstance, we are only receptive to whatever keeps us alternating between these emotions and their opposites. But when we seek the Self that is pure Joy, we begin to evolve to a level of awareness that allows our lives to flow more easily, peacefully and Joyfully.
Only our true Self knows what in the world will lead us to the peace of mind that comes from experiencing the Joy within ourselves. Everything we do with our bodies and minds is only for the material exercise through which we can find this treasure, and feeling attached to any of it can only detract from the Joyful experience we were born to create.
By shifting our focus from competition to compassion throughout our daily lives - even in business and interpersonal dealings, we gradually begin to open up to the possibilities that transcend the reasonable mind. As we expand our receptivity, we can finally experience the Joy of Being - just as we are.
While our perception of peoples' behavior and circumstance may shake that Joy temporarily, every experience leads to a deeper understanding of Self and to an expanded awareness of the Joy that is our essence.
We are neither winners nor losers, but each of us is the pure energy that creates our experience in this time-space reality. To the extent that we create Joy, we are experiencing truth - and that equals success.
