Masters of the Spirit World

QUESTION: Masters is every human being born as pure light? Or do some come in as dark humans/souls? I understand that souls come in from light unconditional love without memory to complete their journey, so while they are in a womb and then born do they remain pure light? When entering this earth plane of duality at what point can and do the human and/or soul begin to pick up the dark energies of earth? I have run across many mean children. ~Christina, USA

ANSWER: Negativity exists only on Earth. When a soul is preparing to come into a body for a human experience, it chooses all the circumstances surrounding its human life such as sex, location, propensities for the family, etc., so it prepares the staging for its chosen lessons. If a soul wishes to experience all aspects of negativity, it could have the energy waiting for it at birth.

The soul itself is unconditionally loving energy, so all negativity must come from the physical outside and be attached after entry into the Earth plane, possibly even in the womb or immediately after birth. It is very rare for it to occur in that fashion, but it is possible. Normally, having set up to become enmeshed in negativity, a soul will be born to parents who are negativity lovers themselves.

After birth, the human experience starts with the soul creating a belief system by which it will live. The human who is in an atmosphere of hatred or negativity accepts that that is the way things are, and their beliefs become shrouded in all things negative, including meanness, hatred, disrespect, and betrayal.

Once the beliefs are set, they shape the personality of even a tiny child. Until the person reaches an age at which they are aware of the difference between positive and negative energy – if they ever reach that state – they act based on their beliefs. This is what you have observed. The soul is still unconditionally loving, but the human façade is pure negativity, and it can occur at any age.

In the human society, negativity is the default setting for humanity. Everyone listens to their ego and wants to be better than, richer than, more powerful than everyone else. It is only those studying a spiritual path who recognize the fruitlessness of a negative lifestyle and strive for a positive loving existence. Give the children a chance to see if they can do away with their parents’ beliefs and find goodness.

QUESTION: Masters, the idea that we assume physical bodies in order to understand emotions and other human characteristics on earth makes sense and resonates as true to me. What isn’t clear is, is it enough to experience these things, when it seems impossible to resolve them in your heart, mind, soul? It seems I have experienced more than my share of negativity in this lifetime and try as I might, I still cannot just let things roll off. They often devastate me. ~Ruby, USA

ANSWER: Understanding, resolving, and integrating these difficult situations is the reason you come to Earth. The soul “gets it” because it started the whole process. The heart is dealing with the physically emotional aspects of the lesson. And the mind is dealing with the repercussions of the lesson as it tries to delineate the learning factors from the ego-driven compulsions of the body as dictated by society.

Without the negativity, souls have no reason to come. Their purpose is to discover who they are as a soul and to see if they can figure out what is negative and how to shed that for the positive opposite. Once a lesson is recognized, that is just the first step. The next one is to make the choice of how you are going to integrate it into your life: embrace or repel.

If you see the test but refuse or don’t bother to work through the steps of finding out why you chose it to be there, it will be impossible to resolve. Judging the “goodness” or “badness” of the event holds you in the ego-based, societal judgment realm. Instead, if you “evaluate” what it means by its presence in your life, you can make the decision how to treat it and it no longer keeps poking you to react.

The “bothering” part of learning is the edge between seeing the lesson and learning the lesson. All lessons come into awareness through the process of producing doubts and fears in your life. If you understand why you chose a particular lesson, you can eradicate its hold and it no longer has any effect upon you.

Letting things roll off you is a sign that the desired lesson has been comprehended. Still feel a pinch? You have more to learn from the situation. Most of the time a continued connection to the lesson involves a belief that has been given you by society – e.g., “That meant I was betrayed or taken advantage of and I need to get revenge.”

Congratulating yourself for getting past the sense of being used by another and into the knowledge that you chose to experience these things, and no one else is to blame, will let you release any lingering emotions. If they devastate you, it is because you are allowing them to do so. Just let it go.

QUESTION: Masters I have found difficulty in friendships and romantic relationships. I enjoy socializing but over the years have been met with so many disappointments from those I have trusted and/or loved. I find myself resisting making friends, opening up to my lover, accepting that these people want to be in my life. I believe that these encounters are trying to teach me something, but I just can’t seem to shake my fears related to the many negative past experiences. Part of me has started to wonder if I’m meant to be alone, while another part of me thinks that’s just my ego talking to keep me safe from pain. What could be the cause of this? ~Kaley Marie, USA

ANSWER: You are very rigid in your expectations concerning anything that comes into your life, particularly when it deals with relationships of any kind. You have a need to be in control, so in new situations, even meeting and sharing interests with someone you have never met, you are hesitant because they are the great unknown. After an affair has begun, you then want to hide behind your walls so as not to be vulnerable to their analysis and potential criticism.

You lack self-confidence and self-worth. You don’t believe you are good enough or in the right position to be loved, and you have no idea about self-love or even romantic love. Love is an acceptance of who the other person is – not what you want them to be.

To be fulfilling, a relationship must be open and sharing so you can find a mutually satisfying bond. With your current emotional deficits, you are unable to comply. To reach a state where you can experience love, you first have to rid yourself of limiting beliefs. You need to develop a confidence that who you are is perfect for someone out there.

All souls are wonderful, loving, magnificent people if they allow themselves to be. Whenever one of your fears or doubts pops up, stop what you are doing and chase it down. Why is it there? Where does it come from? Why have I allowed it to take charge of me? Answering these questions will banish the restrictions and open a new world of possibility. Accept that you are an unconditionally loving soul with no constraints.
