PRISON VS. FREEDOM

Limitations engrained in your character can be used either as a personal prison or as a road to personal freedom.
The Ego's unconscious response to its personal weaknesses is to be ashamed of them, to feel guilty and to wish to hide them away from itself and the world. However, since they are fact they do not disappear by such behaviour but are remaining an unconscious, because they are being repressed, part of the self. And because there are power-obsessed individuals living in this world who need others to rule over and to employ in the realization of their egotistical schemes, in feeling unconsciously guilty you are becoming an unwilling victim to their domineering influence. In addition, this has the unwanted effect of deepening your already existing sense of guilt and your fear of consciously facing your personal weaknesses. Accordingly, you are feeling bound and unable to live freely.
Whereas if you are aware of your personal shortcomings and willing to deal with them consciously they are transformed into opportunities for personal growth and expansion. This simply requires your acceptance of their existence, the willingness to take personal responsibility for their current presence in your character and the sincere wish to work towards perfecting yourself.

Time and place, having thus lost their substance for you, will become a reality which no longer hinders your Spirit's progress in this world of matter. Living in the eternal Now and having realized the power lying therein, you have become its master. Divine Love, Light and Truth only exist in here-now. Therfore, identification with your thoughts...

LOVE THE DARKNESS

Without darkness light cannot be perceived as light. And regarding Nature, without Winter there would be no Summer, without rain and sunshine no growth. When it the periods of darkness outside are growing longer as the year is approaching the winter solstice, do not complain but rather take the opportunity to look for the light shining inside of you. And to practise your vision of the etheric light that is surrounding living things and beings - even in darkness. The "dark" season of the solar year, when the nights are longer than the days, is the time for internal growth, development of the inner vision of (Divine) light. If you do not follow this natural shift of energy of your own accord, personal conditionings are becoming felt as over-powering and you are experiencing depression/ stress/mood-swings/frustration etc. Take Mother Nature for your ideal. She is showing us that Autumn time is the time to let go of external things and to withdraw into yourself and to increasi...
