I talked with The One Source today about how to best help smooth the journey of ascension this week.  After doing much clearing and healing, there was still a layer of irritation, and it wouldn’t resolve.  I was told that was the rub that would make us grow stronger, and that I wasn’t allowed to influence it because that amount of rub was necessary.  I was told to help you learn to be strong, instead of trying to eliminate the rub.

How does that which irritates our spirit and soul make us grow stronger?  Well, it is simply much easier to be spiritually in our integrity when everything is going our way!  When we work hard to be good people, we expect others to treat us well and be good people too!  So when that isn’t the case we become angry, hurt and fearful.  A lot of us are feeling that way since the election, because many people are not behaving nicely.  This is a powerful opportunity for us to gain enough strength of soul to stay in trust, unconditional love and integrity so the Higher Power can be present through, us no matter what happens around us.

Just as many of those who elected our president had been sitting on their resentments, anger and judgment, during the PC days, so have many of us who are spiritually inclined have been sitting on ours.  We did that because we wanted to be spiritual, not negative.  But we all have reactions from our old world self, and all of those need to be healed and ascended, not repressed.  As others have begun expressing their formerly repressed negativity, it brings our own repressed negativity up also.  This is good, although it certainly isn’t what we like.  If things remain buried, and beneath our conscious awareness, they can’t heal and ascend.  Enlightenment means bringing light into the darkness, and this is our opportunity to do that, if we choose to do so.

How do we grow our truth, instead of succumbing to our lower nature when it shows up like this?  What is needed is to love what is hateful within ourselves and within others.  But how do we do that?  This type of miraculous feat of unconditional love, comes from our Higher Selves and the One Source.  It comes because we lay down our agendas and judgments, and especially our fears.  We surrender them into the care of our Higher Selves and The One.  Then welcoming unconditional love to flow from spirit, we can ask to receive it as healing and forgiveness for ourselves and for those we find less than loveable.

Working with this process myself, I have observed how unconditional love flows with equal strength toward all of us who are willing to receive, regardless of our behavior.  It is humbling to realize that unconditional love holds no one as more worthy than another.  This awareness helps stimulate the lesson we are trying to learn at this time.  Judging negativity, stimulates negativity.  Loving everyone unconditionally, facilitates healing and strengthens the truth within all.

This doesn’t mean sitting back meekly and never standing up for what is true.  But when we first do the inner work of love and healing, our outer actions and choices become truly enlightened, instead of self-righteous and provocative, engendering reactions from others.  The life of Nelson Mandela clearly illustrates this process.  I believe he is the great teacher of our generation.  His biography – Long Walk to Freedom is almost a textbook on this process of gaining enlightenment and becoming a vehicle for The Higher Power of unconditional love.

We have all been trained in the human experience to seek love by being pleasing, and many of us have learned that love received in that way is full of conditions.  As long as you are pleasing me, I will love you.  Unconditional love is available to us always, without conditions.  But it is often hard for us to recognize and receive that.  When we do, it changes us in fundamental ways, lifting us into increasing enlightenment.

None of us can fully  ascend to our truth when we are judging or hating others or any part of ourselves.  When we observe these qualities arising within us, we may find their root in fear and separation from the One.  This becomes an opportunity to recognize that part of us needs to be healed; and what a gift that is!  We are all a part of the One, and it is through that One Source that all the craziness of the old world will be integrated into the wholeness of life in the right ways.  Anything that is held separate from that unity, holds all of us back.  Through our trust in the true nature of all life, through our unity with the Source, we are able to bring the world to the next higher place in our ascension.  We do this in moments when we find ourselves experiencing lower nature in ourselves or in others.  Each time is an opportunity to increase our self-mastery and ascend further.

There are many things happening in our country and our world which are scary.  A meditation in response to that could be:

The Essence of Truth of God is within me, within all people and all circumstances

I, all people and all circumstances are within the Essence of Truth of God

(God is a convenient word for the One Source – use One Source if you prefer those words. Essence of Truth means the clearest, truest focus available to us at this time, beyond and above any religious concepts and limitations.)

Thank you for doing your part to help all of us ascend!  Thanks also for sharing this post if it pleases you to do so through emailing the link I sent you to others, or via the link below for social media.
