Listening and letting go
QUESTION: Masters, for as long as I remember, my spiritual progression has been my main focus in my life. Even as a child. While I am able to acknowledge my own self-absorption, I try to be equally self-aware to offset any damage it may cause. There are several different perspectives of reality that I experience on a daily basis, and I am finding it impossible to find my Own Path. How do I know which parts of myself to listen to and which to let go of? How does one let go? ~Amanda, US
ANSWER: You have described beautifully for everyone what it is like to be living in a human body, which is animated by a soul and influenced by all the duality of the third dimension with input from fifth-dimensional soul-essence aspects. A spiritual growth pattern entails taking all the judgmental parts of human life and setting aside the negative while implementing the positive in all activities.
Self-absorption is ego, which is governed by rating, grading, and judging everything in your life. Spiritually, ego is removed along with all judgment, and the acceptance that there is no right or wrong rules. Your path toward awareness is giving power to judgment on some occasions and honoring acceptance on others. Since these two configurations are opposite, your reality bounces from one to the other depending on the behavior you are following.
The records for creating judgment are stored in your brain, having been deposited there by what you have heard, read about, or seen of the beliefs of society. The ability to know there is no right or wrong – only experiences – comes from the feelings in your spiritual energy that arise out of your previous experiences and soul knowledge, which is individual to each soul.
You call to yourself the situations that will enable you to learn the lessons you have chosen, and you are always in the right place when you are there. You have complete freedom of choice, which allows you to always decide how you wish to deal with your life.
The physical thoughts you have come from those others who contributed to your memories, and your feelings come from your own experiences. If you wish to be spiritual, follow your feelings and be in the present, observing what you have called to yourself.
“Letting go” implies you are clinging to something that already exists, which means it has to have come from the past. You can’t change the past, so be concerned only with the moment. Observe, feel, and act in response to what is around you as if you are seeing it for the first time.
