Health, Well-Being And The Light
Initiation And The Clouds of Illusion
In The Power Before Thought I explored a little of how we can understand health and well being. I do not want to focus on that material here, other than to bring up one significant point. Health is not the absence of disease, although it is often referred to this way. Rather, it is the presence of LOVE. Now if that sounds too simple and possibly too “New Age-y”, hang in there for just a moment and think. After all, that’s what thoughts are for. Right?
Any one who has explored consciousness, entered the inner realms, and delved deep into the infinite expanse of their own Being realizes one thing. The physical body is an illusion. A very real one, none- the-less, when it is all you can identify with. However, it is one that “departs” from each of us at some point in our life. We call this detachment or departure – from all things physical, emotional and mental – “death”. The masters of the inner world have a saying, “Death is Initiation and Initiation is Death.” Something has to die or depart our conscious association with it to allow something new to birth.
The physical body is a dense body of coalesced Light. It is accommodating of and subservient to higher vibrational bodies such as the emotional and mental bodies. These higher “Light” bodies direct the physical body to accommodate patterns and impulses from higher realms. Now, if we know who we are, at a spiritual level, then we also know that spirit directs in accord with an even higher luminous Light. That Luminous Light will pass thought the “filters” of spirit and soul into the physical. We often call these filters “karma”.
In other words, the physical body is a condensed light body, directly structured and created by the Divine Light. That Light passes through filters, or patterns, that deflect, refract or project it into very specific manifest ways of being. That is to say, it activates codes of our being – or DNA. Remember, that this is all DNA is – a light code. And DNA is the great karmic enforcer. Until, that is, we realize that all we have to do to overcome karma is to confront it and allow the Light to dispense the shadows that it casts. More on that another day… Today let’s stay focussed!
So, back to health and well being. No matter what is being experienced in life, it is all a play of Divine Light. Now, if the Light is Pure, unsullied, and untouched, then the Being that you are is simply a radiant body of Light. Radiant and pure. Anything that deflects, detracts or otherwise colours or shadows this Light is acting as a lesson bearer, karmic dispenser, or shadow giver; for opportunities of self-reflection and initiation. You see, whatever blocks the Light is actually blocking Pure Love. Block Pure Love and then you will find that the soul is not completely at ease with itself. It is seeking harmony. When this takes place we will travel the world high and low to find a resolution to that which threatens our well being, or even life itself. For we seek to avoid death at all turns – which is natural. Yet the death of disease is love. Love is the great initiator. It brings Light.
Moments Frozen In Time
When I initially wrote this, I was en-route to Sedona, AZ for a weekend class. I was actually crammed into a small United Airlines airbus. (Discussions on United and airlines in general could take up a whole new blog, but suffice it to say there is not a lot of light here!) It was packed. I was fortunate to be in the forward section of the cabin which gave me the opportunity to look back at my fellow travellers. And to sense what was going on in their minds. There are many ways to do this, but one sure fire way is on takeoff. I do not even need to look at them to know what’s going on.
No matter who a person is, even the most seasoned flyer, one still deals with mortality during takeoff. No time has this been more evident than on the flights I made on the morning after TWA Flight 800 exploded in a ball of fire off of Long Island, New York, or the first flight out of Sydney, Australia to JFK after 911. A pin could have dropped and you would have heard it. It is moments like this when people confront their mortality. They lock into a field effect of fear and collectively process the energy of confronting that fear.
For my part, it brings on an enormous amount of yawning. Yes, yawning. I will yawn countless times from push back to climb out. Why yawns and why me? Well its not just me. Literally anyone (you included) who works in the realm of spirit as an instrument of healing, too bring through more Light, becomes literally a magnet to fear, especially fear of confronting the initiation or death. You see, death brings with it none other than love. And no matter what people may say, the greatest fear of all is that of confronting LOVE in its fullness. Not conditioned love, or even agape. No, real Source Point Love.
For this love to come through, the infinite tiredness of hanging on to old ways and means of being must be processed. People literally – at the level of spirit – release enormous energy or fear during moments such as these. They do the same during any takeoff, but on those particular days mentioned above, people were already locked into the “What if it were me?”
Darkness is Simply The Absence of Light
So, let’s close where we started. Disease is an absence of Pure Love. Since you are a body of Light, any shadow that prevents the Light from pouring through is itself offering an opportunity for self-reflection and the removal of the disease. It is at this point that we have infinite options: Allopathic, Homeopathic; Reiki energy, etc. All options present themselves. The most important of all, though, is our willingness to confront the illness for what it offers. Love. Look deep. It may be a past life event which you would have no idea about. That does not matter. It is the deep ownership of the shadow, the illness, and all that it could mean in all and any life, that empowers the doors of spirit to open wide and the healing Light to pour in.
OK. So, drifting back to that flight, I recall when we had still two hours to go. People mindlessly sitting around me exploring Inflight magazines; snoring with their mouths open; blankly staring out at the same cloud pattern that is always present at 35,000 feet. Maybe even the pilot too… Who knows? What is going on in their minds? What are they thinking of at 35,000 feet? What are you thinking of here and now? Where are the shadows in your life? Remember, darkness has no existence in and of itself. It is merely an absence of light. The solution then, wake up the pilot from his slumber and open the blind to let the sun shine on your heart and soul.
See you soon,
