Experiencing God From Within

“God is in the heart and soul of every being. And when you open within yourself the secret temple in your heart, then with the all-knowing intuition of the soul you shall read the book of life.” Paramahansa Yogananda (1)

What does this mean? You have to go within to fully actualize who you are. You are vastly more than the localized body and life you live day to day. You are connected to the non-local energy of All That Is, all the time, whether you know it or not. If you want to fully reap those benefits, you have to go to Silence within and listen to the still small voice of God which is delivered through the intuition of your soul, your eternal self.

Yogananda continues, “Then and only then will you contact the living God. Without this feeling in your heart, there will be no answer to your prayers. You may attract what your positive actions and good karma permit you to have; but to receive a conscious response from God, you must first attain Divine attunement with God.” (2)

Divine attunement with God refers to actively going into Silence with the express purpose of making conscious contact with the energy of God/Divine Source. As you discover imbalances within, you clear them and come into greater attunement with Divine Source. You have to want to have a personal exchange with Divine Source to have that manifest. Attunement means coming into balance, into the same frequency as God. This only happens in the quiet conscious seeking of Divine Source.

You may be afraid of what you will feel or be told about your faults if you expand your personal relationship with the living God. The truth is that you are so loved, way beyond the ability of your imagination to comprehend this. You are first and foremost here to develop a two-way relationship with All That Is. You are here to heal that which is not who you truly are; your fears, your anger, your unforgiveness, and your self-criticism.

You are here to seek peace and joy within. You can’t do this anywhere else. You can’t do this when you leave your body or when you take a different form from your human body. You have to find this path to the living God while in a human body. That is the reason you are in body. When you find this path to God, you can create the life, relationships, peace, and loving wholeness you are seeking. You get as many chances as you need to do this.

Begin now and expand the time you currently allot to experiencing connection with God. Every moment you allot to connect with Divine Source comes back to you one hundredfold. (Mark 10:30, King James Version)

Conscious Seeking of God

1. Find a place where you will not be disturbed

2. Open Sacred Space (even if you are unsure about what that fully means just yet)

3. State your intention for being with Divine Source/God/All That Is/The Oneness

4. State your hesitations, your concerns, your troubles, your hopes

5. Be quiet, listen and be present

6. Give thanks silently or through writing to All That Is about what you are learning

7. Return frequently to experience clearer direction and connection with the energy of God, that energy within you and surrounding you throughout the Universe

Remember you are already hard-wired to Divine Source! You are simply amplifying that connection. There is no one right way to do this. There is only the way you learn to make space in your life for a living connection with God.

Forgiveness is Profound Love

I have been watching Kurt Seyit and Sura, a Turkish/Russian love story beginning in Russia during the Russian revolution and moving to Istanbul. It is magnificent and heartbreaking based on a true story. I have been wondering why I have been so engaged with this series. In silence today, I realized that it is because the main characters get caught up in their inability to forgive themselves and each other. This is the tragedy of their lives. There is enough self-recrimination and numerous missed opportunities to set down the past that literally wrings their souls and apparently mine as well. I found myself literally yelling at the television with total frustration at both the main characters. They simply had to forgive themselves and each other and move on, as deep hopeful love awaited them.

Forgiveness is profound love. If you do not forgive yourself, you cannot forgive or truly love others. You can play at this forgiveness for as long as it takes but unattended forgiveness remains a thorn in your soul. Where are you carrying unforgiveness? Do not let it remain and fester. It has the power to completely destroy your sense of peace and your ability to truly love others. It has the power to make you feel vulnerable and unsafe. You may feel that if you move on in your outer life that the old unforgiveness will disappear. This is not the way it works. You have to name the unforgiveness you still carry towards yourself and towards others before you can truly command it out of your energy field. You can be free of old unforgiveness but you must make that happen.

Most people have no idea that unforgiveness literally sets up house in your body. It affects your energy level, your immune system, your resilience, your overall health, your self perceptions, and your total well being. It is a powerful negative presence within. There is a type of blocked energy that I call spell energy that can remain in one’s soul for lifetimes. Spell energy refers to energy that has been in your field for a spell of time in the past and though the circumstances around that energy may have changed, it remains energetically present in your energy field though perhaps not in your present awareness. Seek this unforgiveness out wherever it resides.

One more confounding truth is that unforgiveness can reside at the unconscious and supra-conscious (soul) levels for lifetimes. Therefore, if you do begin to clear for unforgiveness, use the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol that will prompt you to call for healing at all levels of consciousness and through all lifetimes. One of the major reasons you get pricked again and again with unforgiveness is that you need to clear this for once and for all in your energy field to be free of attracting it again to yourself. If you need to forgive yourself or another, your soul will place you in repeated situations where unforgiveness unfolds until you get that you have to heal this within yourself.

You are on a journey to peace whether you accept this or not. That is basically what we are doing here, trying to become more peaceful inside. Holding onto unforgiveness is not peaceful. It needs to go. Command all unforgiveness of self out of your field if you have the slightest hint of its presence within. If you suspect you carry this and do not know what it is about, enter into Silence and ask to be shown or guided to the unforgiveness you still carry.

I had some unresolved issues with a brother for years. I did not know it was unforgiveness. I asked about the imbalance in our relationship and was shown some deeply unkind things I had done to him as a child, totally forgotten by me. Those mean acts and their consequences were still within me and I had not forgiven myself for that treatment of my brother. When I did finally do the forgiveness work for me, I saw it expand to forgive his actions towards me, as well. Our relationship in present day totally changed. This journey awaits all of us but the seeking has to begin with you.

When you do decide to check in on unforgiveness, and figure out where that energy might be, use the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol to help you include all the various strands that might accompany that unforgiveness for you. The Force is with you but you have to actualize it in your life for it to flourish.

Self-Worth and Self-Compassion Healing

At the root of many of life’s imbalances lies an imbalance around self-worth. I have seen people with self-worth trauma energy who could not manifest healthy relationships, could not sleep, could not find a fulfilling job, could not stop drinking or using drugs, whose bodies constantly hurt, who could not lose weight, who were chronically depressed, and who could not stop beating themselves up daily over just about everything. Self-worth trauma energy is elusive, hard to diagnose, difficult to recognize in oneself, and challenging to heal. Despite its pervasive impact, it is not something most of us want to confront. See Loving of Self for more on this general topic.

You may know you have low self-esteem, chronic imbalances or are not fulfilling your dreams. Odds are, though, that you hardly ever connect these observations with self-worth trauma energy. Self-worth trauma energy is most often buried in the subconscious, unconscious, and supra-conscious (soul) levels. You may be unaware of its presence or impact on you.

The absence of compassion for self can be seen when you constantly push yourself or always need to do more to feel effective and worthy of admiration. Self-compassion trauma energy is present when you judge, berate, or criticize yourself in your mind or in public. This trauma energy is also present when you cannot forgive yourself wholly for past actions, words, or deeds or when you negatively evaluate your body, personality, likability, or appearance.

My son recently observed that the best way to address self-worth trauma energy is through compassion for self. To be able to do this, both self-worth and self-compassion trauma energies need to clear from your energy field to make space for healing. After these trauma energies have cleared, both self-worth renewal energy and compassion for self also need to be called into your energy field.

Next, you need to consider whether or not self-worth and self-compassion trauma energies might both be gene-induced from your hereditary lines. Are these familial patterns you have seen in parents, grandparents, cousins, or aunt and uncles? If so, the presence of these issues may well be genetic in nature.

Lack of self-worth and compassion for self can also come from any type of abuse, violence, or life trauma energy such as loss of a parent or sibling. Additionally, if a life trauma occurred before you were seven, you may have no awareness of it. If you grew up in a household of folks constantly pushing themselves, compassion for self may have rarely ever been experienced. Any of these traumas may be unknown to you at the conscious level.

Therefore, you need a systematic way to address all these issues. If you have the slightest inkling that you may carry these issues, here is an approach for healing these issues and all their symptoms. Keep at it until you get the desired results. All spiritual work needs to be done in Sacred Space.

Self-Worth and Self-Compassion Healing Protocol Steps, (Steps 3 and 4 of the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol).

Use the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol (6SSHP) for this work unless you have advanced to using the Divine Healing Protocol.* Repeat the 6SSHP for each work section given below. This wording is for Steps 3 and 4 of the 6SSHP . Fill in the other steps from the 6SSHP as you do the healing. You may need a few days to complete this series of work.

For each of the steps below, speak the “call” aloud with conviction. No previous experience is needed here for success!

Genetic rebalancing

I call for the turning off of all genes( specific number if available) contributing to gene-induced self-worth trauma energy and all symptoms and I call for the turning on of all genes ( specific number if available**) needed to support self-worth development. Extend this to my entire genetic line.

Extend this to my entire genetic line.

Self-worth and Self-compassion trauma clearing

I call for the clearing of violence trauma energy and all symptoms including self-worth and self-compassion trauma energy
I call for the clearing of life trauma energy and all symptoms including self-worth and self-compassion trauma energy

Call in self-worth and self-compassion

I call in the energies of self-worth and self-compassion to flow into my physical, energetic and auric fields bringing positive changes for my body, mind, and soul on a continuous basis until these energies fully manifest.

*Use each step of the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol. If you are fully competent with the Six-Step Healing Protocol, you can use the shorter process of the “Divine Healing Protocol” instead of using the full Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol. For more, see: Is There a Shortcut to the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol?

** Those using pendulums in Sacred Space or those with auditory or sensory knowing may get specific numbers.

Using Your Spiritual Power

The vast majority of humans barely use spiritual power at all. This may be because you don’t know you have it, or how to use it or because you don’t believe you are “authorized” to call forth your spiritual power, being the “small human” you imagine yourself to be. One of the many gifts and blessings Saint Germain gave the world is a way to decree and activate your spiritual power. His series of teachings, published by Saint Germain Press containing over 30 green books, is a complete lifetime course in how to actualize your spiritual power. We are going to look at one specific way to call forth your fuller spiritual power, the power of decree.

Of course, decrees can be said without any heart energy present and they will accomplish little. However, with determination and heart-felt energy, decrees as well as prayers and mantras become powerful commands of spiritual power. Your heart’s desire for change for the good activates that energy in this dimension. Decrees are effective because every person is created from Divine Love and Energy. This energy is in all human beings.

You may not be feeling Divine Love in the daily process of your life. Nevertheless, when you decree for good, you are moving beyond your mind’s limitations about who you are and embracing your eternal, all powerful, all knowing self to which every person is connected even while in body.

For most humans, there is little awareness of this energy, making it very unlikely that you have ever commanded any spiritual power for the good while in body. Never mind, it works even if your mind doesn’t get it! You don’t have to know how this will happen or when, the decree is enough to change the energy around you in profound ways. A decree is a command from you for good to come forth in its full power, in this dimension, in the present moment.

More fully activating your spiritual power often begins when you realize that you are the keeper of your own Light. You can grow it or ignore it. If you are interested in growing you spiritual power, you might ask, “How do I call forth my spiritual power into my daily human life?” The following decrees and commands are from the “I AM” Decree Booklets of the Saint Germain Press and are one way to activate your spiritual power.

These commands given from Saint Germain enable you to speak to your highest self and to Divine Presence. Change your thinking from being separate from God to being One with All That Is as you envision the greatest power on earth waking up and actualizing in your daily life. Repeat these out loud, three times, each time you focus on them.

We have the power to stop our dwelling on appearances which results in our feeling fearful.

STOP! You have no power. (speaking to the fear, rage, etc.) Get out of my world, I will have no more of this Human Nonsense. Beloved Mighty I AM Presence, dissolve, consume, annihilate this fear of darkness (fill in with your issue) within me and lift me out of this.

We have the power to call forth presence, power, and reinforcements of the Divine Love and Light right into our being.

BELOVED I AM PRESENCE! Give me Divine Order through Divine Love and Justice in my mind, in my home, my affairs and my world. I place myself and my affairs lovingly in the hands of the Divine Father/Mother with childlike faith. That which is for my highest good shall come to me.

We have the power and the right to call forth the Sacred Flame to clear and consume all our humanly developed feelings and thoughts that are draining us of our peace of being.

BELOVED MIGHTY I AM PRESENCE! Pass your Violet Consuming Flame through my mental and feeling world, my mental and emotional bodies, and sweep out, dissolve, and consume all imperfection! Pour Your Mighty Current of Energy through me, filling my mind and body with Your Mighty Health, Strength, Energy, and Buoyancy, everywhere forever!

After you come to a stopping point with these decrees, take time to close your eyes and rest in the healing energy of Divine Presence. Saying these decrees brings powerful healing vibrations for needed shifts within your own energy field.

Note: When your calls feel unanswered: Either you are not using the Violet Consuming Flame to keep dissolving your own unbalanced human accumulations, or your emotions and feelings are not in alignment with what you are trying to address. These are the only two things that can produce any failure in the application of this Law. The Law never fails, but you can obstruct your way by allowing either of these two conditions to exist. ( I AM Decree Booklets, Book One pg. 142.)

Healing Me

Interested in an easy way to clear stuck energy to help yourself heal? Read on!

You are exactly where you are to be no matter what is going on for you or not happening for you. If, however, you are in a place you do not want to be for any reason, there are options that can aid you in working more quickly through the undesirable times. The question that is the most helpful when circumstances are not to your liking is, “What do I need to release so these feelings can change?” For any unpleasant situation, there is something we can release to improve our response to the unpleasantries.

Perhaps you are living with chronic pain. You may feel you have tried everything. You may feel angry, defeated, debilitated, afraid of never being free of pain again, or feel profoundly sad or sorry about the things you love and can no longer do. You may be living a greatly reduced scope of life while trying to live with daily pain.

You may be living with a child who refuses to apply himself to his studies. You as the parent might have carried the energy of worry, feeling defeated, blame, anger, fear for your son, impatience, or sadness around his lost options. There may be major consequences for him that are also worrisome for you such as his having to attend summer school, beginning to see himself as incapable and not very smart, not getting into college or a program for further study, or his dealing with classmates making plans for after graduation.

All worries and feelings you have regardless of the specifics can be taken into a Sacred Space for clearing from your energy field. This can happen within a few minutes after you determine what specific blocked energies you are carrying. No therapy sessions are needed, no continuing to bury your feelings is needed, and no obsessing about the future is needed. If you want to effectively address some imbalance challenging you, go straight to my free tutorial for easy step-by-step instructions and an audio introduction from me to get you started.

After you do your own clearing, you can also use the tutorial to work with others being impacted by the circumstances. For example, you can clear for a friend’s fear of flying, or a spouse’s misgivings about upcoming retirement. You can even clear for your own responses to another’s challenges facing them such as your worry, fear or impatience with their process.

Usually, the major issues keeping people from doing this work have to do with their thinking too small about available options. It is easy to assume there is nothing you can do to make the situation better. Through my work with thousands of people, I know that clearing the blocked energy you have about any undesirable situation makes the situation better. This process of naming and clearing imbalances yourself is open to every person in human body.

Take a chance and gift yourself with 15 minutes for three days to work through a challenging dilemma you are facing. Sign up for this free tutorial now. It’s a quick start to using the Six-Step Spiritual Healing Protocol. Anyone can do this! Try it and then let me know your experience.
