The search for the Grail
Love and Self Love
The
grail is the mythical golden cup that the Christ supposedly drank from
at the last supper, and is reputed to heal all the ills of the world.
Our personal Grail is the gold
that we find within, that can change our lives from being passive, and
unsatisfied to active and content! No more or no less than that!!!
To connect with our personal
Grail, we have to first stop seeing the world in the narrow way that we
do, and secondly, begin to realise what we really are, and our
relationship to the world as it is now, in the past and in the future.
We are eternal beings of light!
Our time in each incarnation is
just a drop in the ocean compared to our full spiritual lives, once we
can believe this and really believe it..... we begin to expand our
consciousness, and to become more at ease with the world as it is!
MEETING OUR HIGHER SELF!
Our first task is to connect
with higher self, and to be comfortable with this.
LISTEN ! To what the little
voice inside is saying to you! Ask when you are in doubt about
something, believe that part of you, the Higher Self, has all the
knowledge of the universe at its disposal, so ask, and listen !!!!
Despite whatever we call them, we come into any
incarnation equipped with our own helpers (Angels & Spirit Guides)
Considering Love.
Consider
love, what do we say? “I love you because your mine!
This form of love is simply an extension of the ego!
In this case our idea of love is an image in our head, we love the
person because the image is perfect for us, it is in fact, in a way a
projected image of all that we ourselves wish to be, whether male or
female!
If however we are betrayed by the person that we have
this wonderful, loving image of, we begin to feel rage, and can quickly
become hard hearted, even to the extent of hating the betrayer!
This is
possession rather than love.
To some extent we all carry images in our head of the
person that we wish to love, only when we find a match for the image, do
we “Fall in Love”, this is how attachment begins!
This sort of love is seeking a mirror for itself, and
in nine out of ten cases will eventually fail.
To fully love without attachment, we first must learn
self-love, and then Spiritual love, when we can be at ease with
ourselves and with our past, then we are open to real love.
EXERCISE.
Imagine a handsome man or woman, one who fills all
your requirements, and who would be the perfect person for you, (this
may be someone that you know, or are with, or it may not.)
Close your eyes and see them. (wait for moment)
Then very gradually take them thro’ the ages, from
whatever age you are seeing them at now, see the face getting older, the
back becoming bent, perhaps they have a stick to walk with, or are even
in a wheelchair,
How do you feel about them now? Could you still love
them the same?
Only when you can love the beloved in all ages and
situations is it real love without attachment.
How ever closely bonded you are with your loved one,
always “allow the winds of heaven to blow between you” this is
detachment!
ONCE WE STOP SEEING LOVE AS AN EMOTION, AND ACCEPT IT
AS A UNIVERSAL FORCE are we able to experience universal love and
contentment at its fullest! DISCUSS!
FINDING THE HIGHER PURPOSE.
Reincarnation—rebirth—The
home of Souls—Soul Groups—lessons
Question— Do you believe in Reincarnation?
From the wealth of evidence that we have from Past
Life Therapists it seems that there IS life for the Soul after bodily
death, and that the system (barring the idea of Hell) is very similar to
the one preached for many thousands of years by the major religions.
During hypnosis, people have been re-gressed to their most recent
deaths, and back to “Home” for the soul, thro many conversations with
these subjects it seems that we do return many many times to earth, in
situations of our choosing to learn or re-learn lessons, and that when
we “die” we are met by our Guide,-Angel– and friends/family who have
passed on before us, who are there to ease the passage and to show us
where we need to be.
Soul Groups.
We do have spiritual families and frequently are
re-born with members of the group, especially as close relations. This
is why we recognise them as soon as we see them in this life, the eyes
give the game away! So we are never alone, we all have our peer group so
to speak, with us!
SOMETIMES THE SOULS CLOSEST TO US WILL TEACH US OUR
MOST DIFFICULT LESSON!
If then we are safe with our beloved group of Souls,
why should we fear death?
We have only to recognise and believe what in fact
all the major religions have been telling us about life after death,
(which is now being confirmed by past life therapists) to feel confident
and happy about our own death and subsequent reappraisal and rebirth. We
should prepare for death (a natural one) in the same way as we prepare
for any other event in our lives. Sudden or violent death can never be
prepared for, but there is always our guides and helpers to ease us into
the light.
THE CASE AGAINST JUDGEMENT OF PAST EVENTS.
As a learning soul we must forgive ourselves for
things in the past, and simply accept them as lessons that are perhaps
more difficult than others to learn. To dwell on them in a negative way
will simply hold us up in our progress!
If we take these matters on board, we begin to
realise that what is of most important to us, is how we evolve and find
joy and contentment within. This is the key to our spiritual
development, and the sign that we are progressing in our search for our
own Grail and enlightenment!
I mmortality
can be lived in the midst of mortality.
Time and the timeless are not
opposites. Because it embraces everything, the timeless has no opposite.
At the level of the ego, we struggle to solve
our problems. Spirit sees that the struggle
is the problem.
Every aspect of yourself is immortal, even the parts
you judge most harshly!
