Trying to Understand

[Get Boldened]

I feel this is the proper forum because this thread deals with adapting to more wholistic outlooks in life. More like shedding off or deprogramming from the outlook adapted by most people.

Astrojewels taught about how to connect with the higher self. She said to have trust. That inspired me on a new series of outlook. I just wanted some answer to my problems or at least more healthy spiritual outlooks and I wrote:

As you said, I could be my best aid or worse eneny. I think most learning in life is about realizing all sides of yourself. It is when you do, that you could make the conscious choice to empower yourself in the times of depression. It is when you do, that you could choose to react properly in situations. Part of realizing all sides of yourself, is learning to have courage, to trust in your higher self, and using "empowering" other than "disempowering" which consists of whining, pity, etc etc... It is that reason why we suffer to learn spiritual lessons.

That will be the second crucial spiritual lesson that is the motherload of all spiritual lessons. I will post the rest up.

Your task here is to repair any damages from past live times, past experiences, and karmic debt by learning the three crucial lessons: Conduct Emotions, Complete Self, and Freedom.

Conduct emotions is being an emotional and responsible being. You express emotions properly and feel love.

Complete self is realizing when you could release emotions, have courage, and not whine. That is, you could empower yourself when you might be disempowered. Remember that you could be your worse enemy or your best friend. Who wants you to grow? -YOU.
Complete self is also trusting you can empower yourself, and trusting in your higher self dropping you hints and courage to solve past damages. White light from your body to above you helps encourage this connection logically and emotionally.

Freedom is: {Appreciate freedom and opportunities - it makes you a Free Being.}
 {Appreciate love and compassion -it frees you from disempowering impulses.}
 {Share this in your deeds - it frees you from an animal environment}

I watched Fight Club and understood the narrator created an imaginary role model that eventually took over his life. It was everything he wanted to be but felt he couldn't. It would take over his body and forgets what happened. It would appear in front of him but he's talking to himself. The imaginary character became a real being towards the last scenes when the security camera showed it dragging and throwing the narrator character. He must had fed so much attention to the imaginary character that he became possessed by it and sometimes it could physically throw him around. But what really ended the possession was another selfless act over another one. It is from this review that I figured this out because I couldn't explain how his imaginary friend could physically throw him and be recorded from a security camera screen. The review cross-examines Fight Club and a book, Hostage to the Devil to explain the Narrator character's trascendental love, empathy, and altruistic acts from the scenes and the last scene that ultimately freed him from the possession (and the invisible being):

Martin calls this type of possession “familiarization,” in which the spirit seeks to “come and live with” the subject as a separate presence before fully inhabiting the person’s mind. This is precisely the relationship between Tyler and Narrator in Fight Club, and the latter finds himself unable to part with or even silence his strange mentor, despite Tyler’s demeaning and destructive behavior.

It's from transcendental love, empathy, and altruistic acts that you appreciate freedom. It's when you are FREED that dark forces cannot touch you.

I always wondered why most spiritualists preached altruism, love, and kind words. I now understand why after reading that appreciation of your own freedom, permanently frees a person from demonic possession (a priest can only do so much). When you appreciate freedom, opportunities, show love, and show empathy, you are freeing yourself from more disempowering impulses like lust, negativity (the human brain actually has a power section that encourages whining, negativity, etc), and so forth. This also explains why when someone believes his life is full of opportunities and positivity unfolding, that the Universe would reward that person with blessings, good sychronicities, and for-his-highest-good opportunities that he wouldn't think about.
