Sometimes when we meet with others or we're in a crowd,
We can feel a discomfort,
A feeling of like as if we're picking up on their emotional garbage and we can feel quite defensive and sometimes we try to do self-protection things,
Even imaginary ones,
Putting kind of a wall around us to protect ourselves and you know the danger of doing these kind of things is unwittingly it can strengthen your ego.
You know your best protection is love,
The love that you're made out of,
The love that everything's made out of.
We know everything's energy,
Made out of energy,
Well it's unconditional love but we're so alienated we don't realize it.
But if you focus on the love and you know be as kind and loving as you as you can and you know if you feel that you're picking up energies from people,
Understand that you can only pick up what you yourself are running.
See if you're really pure of heart and you're really vibrating at a high level,
You don't have to protect yourself because nothing sticks to you because you don't have it.
You don't have,
You're not carrying the fear and the rage so nothing sticks to you.
So that's really the cure.
If you,
You know,
If you want to be able to meet with other people or go on the subway without feeling somehow emotionally contaminated,
Then connect up with the love within you.
Focus on the Creator.
Allow your own impurities to dissolve in a higher understanding.
See as we climb the mountain of spiritual growth,
We climb out of fear and rage and self-pity and resentment and we start to see very kind of clearly and dispassionately that each one of us is a struggling human being just doing our best with whatever patterning we got as young children and beyond that other lives.
And everybody's just doing their best here and you know if we were gentler and kinder to each other then you know the world would be a much happier place and somebody's got to start it.
You know we all want other people to do it,
You know,
But it's by being the change you want to see.
So the next time you feel,
You know,
You're in a crowd or you're with people and you're feeling,
You know,
That you're getting loaded up,
Just remember that you can only be loaded up if you're carrying the same thing.
It can only stick to you if you've got the same thing and just,
You know,
Start saying a mantra to yourself or start a prayer,
You know,
Do whatever you can to just calm yourself.
But,
You know,
Try not to blame others too much or yourself because blame is lame with a B in front of it and it might feel powerful to do but it's not.
It's very kind of an impoverished thing to do and you're the point of power.
Yeah,
Okay.
Bless your hearts.
It's very brave of all of us to be here at this time but love,
You know,
The love in our hearts is actually invincible.
Yeah,
Okay.
Bless your hearts.
