The spiritual journey can seem confusing until you realize that all you have to do really is listen to your heart.
And that will bring you out of confusion.
You know,
In our hearts,
The polarity there is love and fear.
And it's through our hearts that we can access the higher levels of our intelligence,
Our true nature.
Because the love that comes through us is our true nature showing itself.
And the more you've faced your fear,
The more the love of your true nature can just flow.
I mean,
Flow into your body and heal it.
Unless,
You know,
You've got some karma you're clearing and you have to,
You know,
Have a permanent illness or disability.
But short of that,
If you learn how to bring love in to your body,
Yes,
You learn how to merge with your true self.
You grow beyond the limitations of the physical world.
You start tapping into the miraculous.
You know,
I was giving a talk yesterday or a couple of days ago,
And I talked about when I was giving this workshop on,
You know,
Doing this ancient Hawaiian dance.
And we were doing it 14 hours a day and my cook left.
So I had to do the cooking.
I wasn't a great cook.
But indeed,
With this energy pouring through me and serving this higher ideal,
You know,
The food tasted surprisingly good and was plated really attractively.
And it wasn't my usual repertoire to be able to do this.
It was a real bumping up.
And I got it because I was letting the love through.
And then,
You know,
It turned into a big clearing because on top of this,
Running this workshop,
Doing the cooking and everything,
I got bronchitis.
And it had been my childhood go-to illness,
You know,
And I come from an English background.
So well,
English and Scottish.
So anyway,
In the English side,
You know,
There's a distrust,
You know,
There's no accident.
They had a lot of trouble with TB in England.
The lungs,
You know,
If you take a deep,
How much can you trust to take a deep breath?
Really,
It comes down to.
Anyway,
I got this bronchitis,
I was coughing away.
But I still had this incredible energy when I was able just to continue the workshop to the end.
And I never got bronchitis again.
It was as if I moved right through that complex that my ego had,
You know.
And this is really why I do this work because it's like surfing.
It's like surfing this love.
And then the healing comes back to me as a byproduct.
So I mean,
In a way,
It's the most selfish thing I could do,
Because it's like I benefit.
But it is the joy of sharing it.
What's come through,
You know,
A lot of years and just a tremendous desire just to share it and so people,
Others can get it quicker than I got it,
You know.
It's kind of like a parent who comes from a poor home and they want their kids to have a better start than they did.
It's the same principle.
I want you to have a better start than I did about this journey.
But you know,
Again,
Tapping into the true nature,
It's accessible through our hearts.
It's the thing I found in myself and in the people I work with.
It's the thing we want the most,
But we're the scaredest of.
So again,
You see the polarities,
Love and fear.
I mean,
How much fear can we face in the service of love,
You know?
It's sort of like a mom who the child's in trouble and the mom,
I remember in the,
You know,
The old days when I was growing up and Reader's Digest had all these stories of these moms who,
When the child got pinned under a car,
She lifted the car off them single-handedly.
And you could say,
Sure,
Okay,
That's adrenaline.
It's giving you the extra.
And for you could say it's the power of love because she might not have been able to do that for somebody who wasn't her child just because the bonding to the child is so intense,
Especially when they're little.
So it sort of pulls out all stops.
Yeah,
So the more we can let ourselves love and lots of us are walking around with broken hearts and a kind of a melancholy that comes with this.
But rather than sort of being lost in this confusion or melancholy,
Maybe we could just kind of knock on the door of your heart.
I mean,
Focus on your heart.
I mean,
Think about your heart,
Even your physical heart during the day,
You know,
With the desire to,
You know,
Allow your true self in more.
And I'll tell you,
It's knock and the door shall open,
Seek and ye shall find.
And the other thing is,
The more love in your heart,
The more your relationships with,
You know,
Yourself,
But all other people,
They just become much,
Much,
Much easier and more more pleasant.
You know,
Carl Jung talked about the sacred marriage,
The marriage of the innocent male and female within,
And that creates a blossoming of the personality.
So,
You know,
A person who is blossomed is capable of a very magical kind of love relationship with a partner,
You know,
And if we're navigating in fear,
You know,
We haven't cleared our fear,
It will show up in our relationships with our partners.
People feel the gap of where we're not understood or,
You know,
Somebody's mean to the other or,
In fact,
We could be in the situation where we're letting somebody be mean to us because we're so desperate to be loved by someone that will stay in like a marriage that's not rewarding and maybe even where we're getting not treated well just because we're so asleep to the truth within us and we're scared of it.
And you know,
If you're in a situation like that,
If you do wake up,
You can actually heal the relationship.
The relationship can be healed,
But you need to start with loving yourself and getting down to the truth of yourself and standing with it,
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Remember,
You're an immortal soul in human form and we're all bumbling,
But it is possible to merge with your true nature and,
You know,
Become an awakened being and when you do that,
You do so much good and you're happy.
You really are,
You're just happy.
So just knock on the door of your own heart,
You know?
Start turning and listening.
I mean,
You know,
I was thinking about the,
You know,
This thing about the genders we've got going,
The transgender thing,
And I was thinking,
You know,
Maybe it's just coming from the deeper,
Deeper reason is that,
You know,
Women have a male inside them and the men have a female inside them and we just need permission to be both.
The woman needs permission to be able to,
You know,
Have her male side in working order and the guys need their feminine side on deck,
You know,
To give them a higher emotional IQ,
You know,
Which would make their lives much more rewarding.
And maybe just because of the history of humanity,
All the centuries of the strict sort of gender roles,
That instead of just turning inward and allowing our male side for the women or the female side for the men,
We're making a big fuss about this transgender thing.
And we're involving institutions,
The hospitals,
The justice system and everything.
And it's like,
Maybe we're just scared of our hearts,
You know?
That's what I think.
I think we're just scared of our hearts,
So we're making a fuss.
You know,
Every woman can have her male side helping to love and support her female nature and bring it forward into blossoming.
And every guy can have his feminine side,
You know,
Whispering to him,
Giving him guidance,
Helping him,
You know,
Become a fully balanced person.
Okay.
You know,
All my love and blessings to you.
It's a ride being a human being.
I know,
I know.
I know my own challenges.
Okay.
Bless your hearts.
