So I'm sitting here with Anne and she's got a spiritual question. Okay, Can you shine a light on the issue of resistances? Why do we have resistances and how do I deal with them? Resistances to what? If I feel I want to do something and then I feel I better not do it. To feel some rub inside. Right, So it actually could be a bit of fear. That's often what happens when we have an urge to do something and then we think of all the reasons why we can't. It's actually fear operating and actually fear is the foundation of many of our resistances. So, You know, A child is born very, Very loving, Right? And so the child then experiences the parents and how much of their true nature they are allowing. The child will feel how defended they are and then the child will follow that. Okay, Yeah. The child says, Well, This is what's expected. So the child will leave their connection to their true nature and take on the ways of the family. Okay, So most of us grow up with defenses to our true nature and the thing is that how we respond to our caregivers is colored entirely by previous lives. We come in with the issue. Okay. And we actually choose our parents to re-imprint us with the same issue. Okay, So is it to learn to overcome resistances like in sports? You have to have resistance in your muscles to let them grow or? Or you mean do resistance training? Yeah, Yeah. Is this the spiritual meaning of resistance, To train ourselves? To overcome. To overcome something? To overcome, Yeah. And then supposing a person has a great deal of resistance and they successfully learn how to surrender to their true nature and they overcome those resistances, Then their true nature is propelled in exactly the same proportion as the energy it took to overcome the resistance. Do you understand? So somebody, A gift will be bigger if the person overcame great resistance in order to give their gift. Okay. Okay? So, So yeah, I mean the more resistant a family is and if that child grows beyond that into somebody who's freed the love inside, The power of their gift to their society will be increased. Do you see? So like it's a very hard training? It's a very hard training. For how you resolve or something? Yes, Just like the athlete's training in a way. Exactly, The same principle. Okay. Like there is no gain without pain. But we, You know, As soon as possible quickly get beyond the pain and learn how to surrender and to choose. So you don't, So you can grow beyond the pain. So this is a bit different from the athlete training. Right. So, Oh, Except the athletes, They find the best ones are the ones that use their imagination. Oh, Oh right. So they don't do physical training seven days a week that use, That will imagine, Imagine themselves, You know, I don't know, Running a mile in three minutes. And that brings out the best athletes. Okay, This is a good reminder that we can use this. In the spiritual training. So you use your imagination to imagine yourself becoming free of resistance. What would that feel like in your body if you were really aligned with your soul and you weren't carrying a lot of fear, If you were, You know, Going forward in trust? Exactly. Good, Good questions. Yeah, So, But you said something about surrender, To overcome the resistances, Not to work on overcoming them. Oh yeah, Don't work on overcoming them. Imagine them. You can imagine overcoming them. Whatever we fight gets bigger, So if you fight for the resistances, It gets bigger. So it's like an athlete, Say a long distance athlete, Who's, You know, Running a marathon and they get tired halfway through so they start praying. They start praying really hard. Same principle. So pray, Pray for surrender, Pray to understand, Pray to be the person you're born to be. I'll tell you, Your soul could overcome anything. You see, When you pray, You call on your soul and your soul is eternal and invincible and it will gradually overcome, Actually it will gradually teach you how to overcome these circumstances. Overcome resistance in yourself or overcome difficulties in your experience and really, The more resistance we're carrying, The more difficulties we will have in our experience often. And when those resistances are coming up to be cleared, We can have very intense experiences and we can become very unhappy. But if you pray, You're making a pathway through and out of being a victim. Oh, We're never victims. We can always pray and follow the information and guidance that comes. That's a great question, Anna. So, Yeah, I'm just checking inside myself to not being a victim means there are two ways to go. I can fight against the resistances or I can pray. So I feel myself in situations of resistance. Where you feel resistance in yourself. Yes, Yeah, Yeah. So I. . . Okay. So just first of all, Be with it. Notice your discomfort here. Here I am again. You know, Say somebody's being rude to me or mean to me or I'm feeling slighted, I can feel my body hurts coming again. So I would go, Okay, So this relates to my childhood. This is, You know, My issue of saying not being treated well during my childhood. So here it is again. And I would, You know, First of all, Be with it. Be aware of it. Okay, This is. . . Okay. And then if you know, If you're aware of what the difficulty is, You can handle it in the most graceful way possible. You could just, You know, Politely be with the person and then leave as soon as possible. You know, Why would you have a fuss with a person if you know the issues, Your own resistance, Right? Right, Yeah. So, Yeah, To be with it. Just be with it and witness it and you could pray in that moment. Right, Okay. And then you're going conscious on it. You're not getting caught in your ego. You're becoming conscious. You're staying conscious. Okay. And it's a gradual unraveling of the ego and the ego beliefs. And the ego gets smaller and smaller and smaller. And these things, Like say being treated badly, Happen less and less and less. And people will respect you more. It doesn't matter what your job is. If you are in your true soul energy, You get instant respect from people. Just instant. And they will listen to what you say and they will remember it for years afterwards. Wow, That's pretty cool. Thanks for asking those questions. Thank you.

Thank you so much! This has helped me greatly! 🙏🏽❤️

I pray, but I don’t always know what to pray for. So this talk was helpful in remembering that none of my issues are about the other person. So I know now I can pray for the sense to contain my emotions until I can get clear of whatever is aiding in going back into a childhood experience.
I think lately I have been focusing mostly on gratitude and being thankful and abundant. I take everything as it comes these days because if I don’t I get overwhelmed by all the things I want to do and that is a lot.
Everything use to have priority in my life, except me. So adding awareness and discernment to surrender to the things that are my ego will be a good addition to remember.
Thank you!
