Pride...

I am proud of my accomplishments. I have worked very hard to get to where I am now. It is not only OK, it is good to be proud of myself. As I write this I hear, see and feel that the greater majority of the thoughts and feelings I have surrounding the concept of Pride are negative and self-defeating. Whereas legitimately feeling proud of myself boosts me up, the negative connotations undermine any good in it. There is a big difference between being Proud and being Prideful or Boastful.

I am proud of me!!!

Being better than you were...

When you let go of your fear and doubt, and choose to embrace all the good about you that has been brought to your attention by those you trust, then you will be able to undertake anything you desire with energy and determination.

Be guided by your True Self, that part of you that is eternal and good and one with God. See all around you all the levels of existence, from the lowest, darkest vibration to the highest and brightest. At different moments in time, or even in a single day, you will find your self a vibrating at any one of all the available levels.

Your task is to be clear enough to know where you are andto have Love in your heart about this. Then, if you do not care for where you are, consciously direct your energies to a better level of vibrational existence. There are many tools and techniques for accomplishing this, find the ones that work for you in the moment.

The more you practice changing yourself from a lower state to a higher one, the less often you will find yourself where you don't want to be. This is a retraining or reprogramming of yourself toward Self Enlightenment. It is something only you can do for yourself, and only if you choose to.

update

I am posting my writings on the dates they were written. This means you may have to go back to the beginning to see where the new stuff is put in, mostly since March 2006.

It feels important to me to have them in date order, because of the growth progression I have experienced over the last year.

Some of the things I've posted are my thoughts. Some of them are things I feel I've channeled, guidance, whatever... I post them, because there is a very small possibility that something that I've received or something that I have thought might help someone.

My purpose in life is to empower others. I do this by just being who I am, by discovering just who that is. I also do that through RoHun Therapy, which is Spiritual Psychotherapy, picking up where Carl Jung left off...

Namaste.

Reach out and touch someone...

Come out and touch those who may need to be touched just now. They are sad and lonely within themselves and don't know yet how to be otherwise. For yourself, be gentle -- there is time yet and you must move immediate concerns from your mind to be able to move forward. The things of the world must not and cannot be ignored, God can only help those who will do their part on the physical plane. It is energetic help and from a global perspective. There is no personal direction of the minutiae of your lives by God, and yet the influence of your connection to God is felt in every tiny crevice of your life. God is everything and everything is God -- leave nothing out!

Meditation...

In my heart I hold the key that opens the inner room, the sanctuary of my Soul, the arena for its learning...

Amidst the dust and solitude,
profound wisdom I do seek,
not knowing how to question
or say what it is I need.
Not knowing how to listen
effectively, at will,
nor interpret very clearly
what I do receive.
Self-doubt and doubt of "the ethers"
colors my belief.
Science-mind is willing
to listen to the reasons,
but still desires some evidence or proof.
Desires I said, much softer than requires
and thus a clear straight step
toward the sanctuary of belief.
One foot before the other,
one moment here in time,
one thought of self in others,
choosing not to remain blind
to all that has been given,
all that has been shown,
to lend credulity to my rhythms,
allowing me to know.
The truth of my existence
is not often seen nor heard,
by me and never by others
who are part of the major
unknowing, unhearing "herd".
I step apart, and lonely,
walk my separate trail,
into the mountains
above the clouds
and onward through the veil.

Long time, no post...

I hit a few snags last year and although I still wrote, I didn't Blog my thoughts... I have quite a few items to add and will try to get everything up to date very soon...

Life can throw some curves on the road ahead, but once you figure out how to use the steering mechanism, the trip becomes more of a pleasure than a doubt filled uncertainty about where you are headed.

Hugs, Love, Light and Laughter to you!

The whisper in my ear...

Hello, Dear One. You have made much progress recently. To truly own your own creative power and know the truth about being a victim is very great indeed. Once you know this truth, truly know it, you feel the joy of your True Self, do you not? When you walk the world among others who do not know, you carry the energy of this joyful awareness with you and without uttering a single word, you will deliver the message that everyone loves to hear -- "You are loved and joy is real and attainable RIGHT NOW!

This act of Being, just walking through your life, consciously placing each step with Joy and Awareness, will be the Light that attracts those who seek. The more you grow in awareness and acceptance of your own Divine Being, the brighter will be your radiance in the world of the mundane. The clearer your Light is as you walk, the clearer will be those drawn to that Light.

Be certain, Dear One, that you are constantly alert for any indication that you are heading to the deep places where you do NOT create "of the light". As you create and flow and walk in and with Light, you find yourself surrounded by seekers like yourself, seeking assistance. These are the ones you are to help Heal and to Teach. These are the ones through which you will fulfill your divine purpose here on Earth. We love you and honor you all. Namaste.

Magical, mystical being...

You are a mystic. Your thoughts run deep and intertwiningly. When one touches the deep stillness within and the quiet joy of knowing the Higher Self, one IS. cab this is the I AM, the essence of Oneness, available to all.

You are a Mystic and may not have this knowledge available for conscious use... yet. Those moments when you touch it, sense it, feel it, those are the moments in which you, without any doubt, watch those around you respond. They respond in wonderful, helpful ways, do they not? The one who goes out of their way to offer you support or assistance, is responding to this radiation from you. This draws out their own connection with that which is greater than themselves, and they offer something to you from that place. A smile, a word, a hand... pay attention to where and who you are in that moment and perpetuate that sense within yourself. It will grow strong enough to stand on its own, without effort on your part.

This is where you will be strongest. This is where the Law of Attraction will serve you best. From this place of energetic wholeness and balance you can bring to you all that you wish in your physical life as well as to your spiritual existence on the planet.

Here, not only will others join you, but also, we can come through more clearly to guide you and teach you what you need to know. Here there is peaceful abandon to that which is Truth, and bringing forth manifestations of joyous experience. Namaste

Supportive words of guidance...

Hello, Dear One. We are so happy about your realizations and healing that we have not adequate expressions for our joy. You are one with us now. You're "channel" as you call it, has never been as clear as at this moment. We have excitement for our journey with you now that you have awakened to your true Self.

As you walk through your life from here, we can and will speak your every step with you. When you see something you may not fully understand, listen and we will tell you what we can about it. When you are required to use language for communication, listen and we will give you the words. When you are approaching the seductive old beliefs, listen and we will tell you what is true. We will show you the light in a situation, whether it be through humor, understanding or just Love.

As you listen more and more to us, you will find all trouble disappears almost before it even begins and all you will have before you is a glorious vision of what is true now and at every instant of your existence. Yes, you ARE all that and more! Some of this is outside your vibrational ability just now. Here's where your faith, your believe in the things of the light will hold you up above the darkness which would pull you back "down" vibrationally, so you can manifest all you could wish for.

Not without a challenge in your heart do you come to this place, but you shall burst forth from the challenge as you have done so already. This challenge will feel so small as a bite from the tiniest of creatures because you are standing tall in the strength and power of the reality which is who you really are and why you are really in existence on the planet at this time and place.

You are light, and now you know that others have not this awareness, nor can you give it to them, just let them feel you in this state and love them where they are with understanding and forgiveness. That does not mean except what they do in their state as right or good, it just is.

And you, having let go all attachment to the rules can and will be a beacon to those in the darkness who long for some light. Namaste.

A poem...

In a quiet moment
my heart expands of its own
embracing all that I am
or ever will be.
In that moment, I know
and feel the desire
to step upon the ways
of energy and travel far
amid all the other souls
to whom I am connected
as if we are all one entity.
Inter-dependent and whole
yet able to learn independently
of one another, while sharing
our burdens, lightning our load.
Touching one another gently
in the space of no time or place
on the level of our awakened Selves.
In connection to God, like mist
above a pond, both are water
and will eventually join, but for a while
they have different states.

World Issues...

Sometimes there is a need in the world for that which does not suit you, but which many others need, such as religious rules. Spiritual growth and connection directly with God is not an easy goal for many, especially Americans. The American culture, although originating with religious freedom, has become very controlling since then. There is so much neurotic believe around God and what God is, that it often has little room for a personal experience of God.

People are convinced they must deny and bury anything within themselves that is not prescribed in the rules of their chosen religion. Some who would behave in ways that violate or harm others may need to do this, but the average human living in America, the United States, does not. What they need is to feel safe enough to begin to explore God and what that means now, in this time, not 2000 years ago.

There is much fear-mongering in this culture, and it is used for everything from selling aspirin to promoting, or more often trying to tear down, politicians and their parties. Fear and sex are used to sell quite often, although there is a new model will slowly emerging.

This new model uses humor, and quite often an aspect of spirit or spirituality to reach people.
Now Yoga, Alternative Healing, Meditation and the like, are part of the majority vocabulary in some way. Awareness of things that science cannot prove as real is blossoming in the average American psyche.

People will often say they believe in things they don't voice. They don't voice it, especially when it may be a little different, fearing suppression or rejection. They may even deny they have the belief and strive even harder to adhere to the tenets of their religion. So those who step out and wish to express God in their lives and God's love, understanding, forgiveness and peace as their way of experiencing the world, are brave. To step out in tolerance, acceptance and joy is going against the grain in many areas of the country. All who can do this and bring that much more light into the world, enough to cause transformation.

Keep up the good work! Namaste.

Inside Out...

Just notice what goes on inside: the little thoughts that pass through, nearly unnoticed, but for the somewhat slimy trail they leave behind. AND how they seem to churn up a dust cloud of feelings you didn’t know you had. Your reactions are nearly uncontrollable and instantaneous.

Then you notice what is going on inside and realize your reactions are yours to define as are your thoughts. Oh, it may not FEEL like it, especially when the thought and reactions feel a little negative and un-serving. But, once this particular light begins to power up in your psyche, the awarenesses will be clearer and you will be more open to change as the light shines on what is really in there and you gain understanding and clarity around your own processes.

Once this begins to happen, there is no holding you back. Go forth with Love and the loving flashlight of God, into the depths of your unconscious and there shine the Light on all the old, slimy things that hide there. You may be surprised at just how easy this task turns out to be, once you take the first step without fear and in trust that you are beloved of God.

This vehicle of yours will be shed one day and you will reunite with God and all you have learned will be shown and shared and honored and Loved. Knowing that, how could any of us regard ourselves and our processes with anything less? You don’t even need to do anything if you choose not to.

You are loved unconditionally, you are the only one who judges you, you know. You will say “but so & so down the street, at work, at home, pelts me with judgments all the time!” We say, change your perspective. If you weren’t judging you first and hardest, you would not be so affected by someone else projecting their own self-judgment onto you, now would you?

All is one, therefore loving yourself first is essential and creates ripples out into the world, creating change. Loving yourself first is essential to loving anyone else. Try it, you’ll like it! Namaste

Weather Report...

Each day is a challenge, you know. A challenge to walk straight and tall whatever the "weather" is around you. The emotional "weather" you step into wherever you go affects you. Just how it affects you is up to you. Hold your understanding close before your mind with each step. Feel your own self-love, compassion and understanding and others will feel 'something' when you come around. If you ever have a doubt around this, take a moment to consciously remember and connect to it. Then you can step back into the 'fray' in a strong and confident way. The more you do this, the less the "world" will affect your moods. Namaste

Response-ability

There are many who get so caught up in the terror of life, who are so afraid to live, who feel they can't make changes in their life, that they decide to leave life. These are the ones you cannot help, except to give them loving energy and hope they can accept and feel it. The archetype of the Tormented Young Man or Woman is rife, in the society of the West particularly. Their angst seems unrelieve-able, and indeed it is because they are so caught up in the storm and don't understand there is no help to be found outside themselves. This combined with their unwillingness or inability to take responsibility for their own condition makes their life something to be despised and thwarted, by them, at every turn. The Understanding or belief that you ARE in control of what goes on within you is not something the average person, cut off from Source, can grasp.

Only when connection with The Source, Universal Oneness, God, something Greater Than Self, whatever you would call it, is known, only then can responsibility for your inner self be taken. For without this connection, there are no assurances, no energy, and no support for the awakening of a person.

Awakening the ones ignorant of the light within themselves, is a gentle, passive process which may or may not flower in their life. Never have attachment of what someone else is manifesting in their life, even when it affects yours. The only thing in your control is you, your responses and reactions and how you manifest your own life. Manifest ways in which you will be protected from the fallout from another's life choices by, say, an umbrella of Love. Then carry this umbrella of Love everywhere with you... Maybe galoshes of Love as well! This energetic protective 'clothing' will work wonders for you. Just imagine that anything that comes your way energetically that does not serve you, is reflected in a loving way back to the sender and transmuted so that it will serve them for their highest good.

Sometimes you believe that "for my highest good" could mean something "bad" and that you should just accept this. Do you realize that if you BELIEVE this, then this is what will happen? Why not change your belief to "...highest good..." equals joyful experiences?

There are so many deeply embedded negative beliefs that it will take conscious effort to turn yourself around. However, it CAN be done and is a very real and close possibility in your life. So get on with it. Begin loving your life and all the people in it, granting understanding for where you and others are in this moment and forgiveness for any 'fallout' from yourself or others.

You have the power, accept it, work with it, change your perspective, and the puzzle will come together on its own.

Namaste

Monday Morning Guidance

There are times when life seems to drag along with the weight of responsibilities hanging on. This feeling will be paramount and overwhelming and can engender a kind of panic over how to do it all. You can't do it all. Unless, that is, you are grounded spiritually. Over time, you will notice, if you have a daily dharma, things will seem to flow more effortlessly that you imagined they would. A solid foundation built by feeding your spirit a little or a lot every day gives power to your strengths and abilities. You are then able to approach your life and responsibilities from a standpoint of strength and confidence. In this strength and confidence you will find ways to be and do and how to determine what NOT to be and do.

Some things that had once been so important now seem unnecessary and only add superfluous work to your life. These things have no real value in themselves for your life, they only hold you in the past and retard your forward motion. Sometimes they will be physical things, sometimes habits and behaviors, but always they will be hereafter unsatisfying for you. One example is wine. This habit has been a part of your life for a long time and has attached to it the memory of escape and release from daily stress. You notice it is not working anymore, don't you? Having a glass with dinner is fine, in fact anytime you have it is fine. Except -- you are noticing how you feel - how you are unable to be wholly present with something you want to accomplish, aren't you?

It is just like when you gave up the other substance so long ago because you knew you wouldn't progress under its influence. Same with alcohol, your body cannot tolerate it as well anymore, not that it ever really did. You are advancing energetically and spiritually and your body has to go with you on this journey. Be aware of what compromises its well being and pay attention and do something about it, or stop doing whatever it is.

Be strong, decisive and determined about this and you WILL receive great benefit. Namaste

Sometimes overwhelm is all I see...

I am in the process of letting go of material attachment -- those parts of me that are afraid of the unknown. I mean, without material attachment, what is there? Those deep parts of me are frantic to keep me in attachment and dancing so fast there won't be time to do the spiritual practices that would allow me to move on. I must be patient with myself, see the bigger picture, where my progress is ever forward, slow but steady and sure. I must take a step back and look at it all from the bigger perspective. Then I will see how far I've come and be able to relax into the process without pushing or pulling.

It's an Amazing Life!

I was thinking about the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" and all its implications for me...

The movie of my life would be "It's an Amazing Life" because when I play the movie in my head, I shake my head. There have been some truly dreadful periods to get through and I did indeed survive and grow.

The best part is how synchronistic my life has been. Whenever I truly needed something or someone, it or they showed up in my life. I have never had to go hungry or sleep outdoors (except on camping trips) and I have always had Love, even when I didn't know it. I have many gifts and I am able to share them.

So many teachers are out there for us these days, when we are ready we just need reach out our hand and pluck one from the bookshelf or the CD rack. I love audiobooks and just finished listening to Richard Gere read the latest from His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Double Bonus! I highly recommend it to all and sundry, it is wonderful and enlightening. It is "The Universe in a Single Atom : The Convergence of Science and Spirituality""
and you can get it here.

Other teachers who are also highly entertaining and therefore easy to listen to or read: Wayne Dyer, Carolyn Myss, Deepak Chopra.

Namaste to you, RoHun

A conversation...

Query: I'm feeling a bit inadequate just now, will you please talk to me?

This is what every good therapist will go through, it will stop some, but many keep going through to the other side of these limitations and issues, as will you. We watch you and are excited about your work. We will not always allow you to sit in this feeling, but for now, you must explore the limits of it and all the ways that its can bring you or others to a complete halt. However, you cannot do this for long, you are our star pupil at the moment. You feel a dedication to the work like few others. You believe in yourself when you are working, there are no doubts then, we know.

You must decide how you order your life, yes, but you have time. Remember, the idea of Triune (body, mind, spirit) balance? We gave that to you and you received the energy of it on all levels. So... there are a lot of habits you have that limit your care of yourself. Care for Self is imperative for you to be strong enough to care for others. And also so you can follow through on your work as it is now laid out before you. You know what to do and how to do it, yet you will resist, why? You cannot just float through your days following your inner child's whims and wishes. Yet you continue to feel as if loving and caring for your body and spirit is something imposed upon you by someone outside yourself.

Take responsibility for your health on all levels and then you will be able to guide others in their own self-care. You help them now, but when you break through this resistance, you will be able to do so much more than you ever imagined.

Take care and always and know that we will help you all we can, but you have to do the bulk of it yourself, for your Self. Namaste.

Random Thoughts...

This is a picture of my friend and I at her Mom's wedding--->

I have been having the experience of being off from work because of an injury... There are a lot of things I have come to understand during this time... Some days I am so tired of the 'push' toward anything metaphysical that I just want to lay down and watch movies and not have to think about anything! It is sometimes a wearying struggle within myself to get to the point of acceptance of myself and my experiences in the world... I can whine all I want to whomever would listen and believe it or not, some will... I remind myself to chose carefully the cheese to go with my whine {smile}... I do not feel weak or alone or despairing or anything really at all negative, I am just tired of the push at the moment... toward clinical certification, toward Doctorate work, toward enlightenment...toward making my body stronger... It is also a fairly dreary day, the kind when it is really nice to curl up with my cat and my knitting and just 'be' for a while, with nowhere to go and nothing to do... Maybe later, right now I must go write up more session evals for my certification, which although I am very excited about getting, I am also 'over' how much work it is! Love & Light, RoHun

Maintained daily meditations, you will notice habits changing so let them change. You have a new way to be now, that includes your Triune balance -- Body, Mind and Spirit -- so do something for each part, every day! Note how you are giving and receiving in each area.
