Saul Audio Blog for Tuesday February 26th
The Tsunami of Love continues to strengthen and intensify as more and
more of you set and hold the intention daily to be only loving,
whatever arises. You all incarnated to do just this, and you
are doing it, and it
is having a most wondrous effect.
Do not doubt the efficacy of your intentions!
Without them the awakening would be moving a lot less rapidly, so your
intentions truly are a most essential aspect of humanity’s collective
awakening. When you come into awareness of what you have achieved you
will be amazed, and filled with untold joy. In fact, you will have
become fully awake, you will have returned to your natural and most holy
state, that of
knowing that you
are One with and inseparable from God.
Separation is what You chose to experience when You invented the game
that allows You to seemingly be separate, alone, abandoned, and utterly
disconnected from Source. So much so that You became unaware that
there was a Source from which you were separated, and so you believed
yourself to be asmall, separate, and insignificant being in an
environment full of others, also separate and alone like yourself. And
being apparently separate, and therefore unloved, unwanted, and
unappreciated caused you, and still causes you, enormous pain and
suffering. You seek relief in relationships, but those with whom you
seek relationships are also experiencing separation and abandonment, and
so they are seeking from you what you are seeking from them. What you
seek is Love, and Love is what you are, but you have totally lost
awareness of this, forgotten that It is what you are – although It is
within you – and that you and Love can never be separated.
Not knowing this, unable to remember this or be aware of it, you seek
what is eternally within you elsewhere, where it can never be found.
It is like the story of someone searching for something at night on the
ground in the vicinity of a streetlamp. A passerby asks the searcher if
he lost what he is looking for near where he is seeking it. To which
the searcher replies “No.” The passerby then asks him why he is
searching there, to which the searcher responds “because the light is
better here.” And, within the dream or illusory world, where you are
experiencing life as a human, the light does appear to be much brighter
and there appear to be many wise or helpful ones who can assist you in
your search. Whereas, when you go within, because of the veil or cloak
of separation you have drawn between yourself and Yourself, it seems to
be a very dark and empty place in which most of what you experience are
nightmares of guilt, shame, and worthlessness, as your ego judges the
empty space in those terms because there are no “delightful
distractions” – other people – telling it how wonderful it is. Those
can only be found outside yourself where, if you have achieved or
obtained some worldly recognition, you will find appreciation and
acceptance . . . temporarily.
Praise and acceptance from without is always temporary, because, as
time flows by, others forget or resent your achievements, and withdraw
their acceptance and appreciation, and then you have to start your
search all over again.
However, if you will go within and sit patiently, in a state in which
you have quietened your mind, allowing the “alluring and almost
irresistible outside distractions” of the outside world to fall away,
you will increasingly find yourselves at peace and in a state of
self-acceptance. Realization or awareness will dawn that you are who
you are, that you cannot, and in fact do not want to change that, you
just want to alleviate or dispel those nightmares of personal
unacceptability, which you also see reflected back to you at times from
others. By spending time quietly within you will come to a state of
self-acceptance and peace which cannot be found in the world outside,
where you are almost continuously experiencing and engaging in judgment
and blame with and of others who are also fleeing their sense of shame,
unworthiness, or unacceptability. And those senses are, of course,
invalid because you were created unchangeably perfect by God, and
therefore remain so.
As unawakened humans, living in and experiencing the dream/nightmare
of life in form, that does not seem to be the case. In this state your
egos apparently rule supreme, and the stronger they appear to be the
more they seem to achieve materially in worldly success. And yet you
are all aware of
many who have fallen from grace, and who are no
longer celebrated or appreciated but are instead despised. The more you
seek outside yourselves for what lies only within, the more extreme
will be your eventual disappointment.
Living in the world of form you are constantly presented with its
apparent reality, and with all the issues and problems of that state.
Life seems to be a constant and ongoing struggle for survival and
approval, but even those who have achieved fame and fortune still seek
further approval, because egos have insatiable appetites that can never
be satisfied.
And of course, you do need to keep reminding yourselves that you are
not your egos. You are divine beings, created perfect like unto God, and forever unchanging.
Your ego is like a self apart from yourself, the part that
experiences fear and anxiety, and it is always attempting to alleviate
it. When the ego is experiencing fear or anxiety it is constantly
judging, self or others, to assess if some words or actions need be used
to express to others its brilliance or to protect it from attack, and
in that state it is always expecting to be attacked. It is therefore
very much on the alert, watching out for threats to its safety, and this
is a very stressful and energy draining way to live.
However, when you are totally focused on an activity, hobby, or
pastime (which could be just thinking creatively, without actual
physical action) that you enjoy doing and in which you know you are
competent, your ego is relaxed and non-judgmental. This is very similar
to being in a meditative or contemplative state. That is why
meditation and contemplation are so beneficial. In that relaxed state
of self-acceptance the ego is silent, enabling you to hear the Voice for
God which is always with you, able and most willing to offer you the
help and guidance you need to maintain a sense of self-acceptance at all
times.
Self-acceptance is essential for your well-being. It is your natural
state, in which you have no need to seek approval from anyone, and in
which you are able, and intend, to be only loving whatever arises. In
that state you recognize that if someone attacks you it is a very clear
indication that that person is suffering and is engaging with you out of
a sense of fear or inadequacy. Then, from your place of peace, you are
able to silently offer compassion and love – the healing energy that
will flow through you abundantly if you just allow it. Whereas your ego
will judge and condemn anyone who attacks, thus encouraging conflict
instead of peace, because it loves drama and attention of
any kind.
Daily periods spent quietly alone, free from the distractions with
which your busy human lives are forever presenting you, are absolutely
essential for your well-being, especially now, as all the issues that
have been ignored or denied by the human collective arise into your
awareness – seemingly threatening your sanity and safety – and that need
to be released. That is all that is needed – RELEASE. To spend lots
of time attempting to uncover the reason for them, their source, is
unnecessary and distracting. Just acknowledge whatever arises, thank it
for coming into your awareness so that it can be released, and then
release it lovingly, knowing that its purpose, which is now completed,
has been part of your awakening process.
As you release these issues, some of which may cause painful memories
to arise, forgive them and forgive those who apparently caused them,
including yourselves. Life as a human brings to you a series of
lessons, some of which you see and learn, some of which you ignore or
refuse, while others do not enter your awareness at all. They are all
steps on your path Home, your awakening to awareness of your oneness
with God, and therefore with all sentient life. They are not intended
to fill you with guilt or shame as you remember actions taken or words
spoken that were not loving, those were all part of the
game of
separation. Yes, they seemed very real, some of them still do – and
they were often very painful. However, you no longer have any need of
them because you have
all chosen – even though you may presently
be unaware of this – to awaken from the game, the dream, into Reality,
Oneness, Love. Here there is no judgment, guilt, blame, or requirement
for restitution, there is only complete and utterly unconditional
acceptance of each one of you, by
every other, as you recognize one another as the One beloved Child of God.
Just to remind you:
There is only Love. Love is Real, and there is
nothing
beyond the infinite field of creation that is Love, because It includes
and embraces everything, and of course there is no beyond. You are
loved way beyond your ability – as humans – to imagine or envision.
Therefore relax in the certainty of your absolute and eternal
perfection, worthiness, and lovableness and know that you will
know that you are one with, and eternally inseparable from Source, therefore rejoice and celebrate.
With so very much love, Saul.
