Beyond Traditional goal setting part II
Posted by: | CommentsSometimes, people make the mistake of thinking that they are following their highest joy. When they are really not following it at all. It goes like this. Joe has a dream to be rich and successful, so he thinks how to make this happen. He concludes that he has to get some education and obtain a MBA from there he will look for a high-paid job and climbing the ladder of hierarchy to the top.
He believes that if he does that with joy he will eventually work effortlessly.
While a positive state of joy can help to accomplish a lot of things our Joe isn’t really following the principle of following his highest joy.
IDEA 1 – Thinking about “HOW” and “WHAT” will give you X is not following your highest joy.
STEP 1 – If there no limitations or consequences, what would perfect average day look like?
Answer this question and pay attention to the essence, the energy behind what your answer for instance in my case. I could say….
I’m creating some cool yoga videos (which I do at Yogahd.TV )
then I create some cool audios or blog post (which I do )
I have a walk at the beach (which I do everyday)
So the essence is teaching in a relaxed environment and enjoy a sense of freedom. When you know the essence it is easy to follow your highest joy because what truly feel joyful will give you the essence of what you want.
In my case, joyful ideas that bring me the essence of what I want, keep popping up in my mind. I write this and then bang “oh, why not re-read what Swami Rama said about breathing and go to the top of the hills make some cool pranayama videos for youtube! ” The idea contains exactly the essence of what I want “teaching in a relaxed environment and enjoy a sense of freedom” and take into account my own ability and natural talent for videos making.

How to channel your higher self’s wisdom
Posted by: | CommentsIt is very nice to listen to channeled material such as Bashar, Seth, Abraham-Hicks and many others. However, it is even more interesting to be your own channel. You can channel, your higher self very accurately. It is not as complicated as you may think.
I was myself skeptical but, after I tried it, I have to admit, it works well. Let me explain you, how you can channel your higher self. You will have to relax. You can use any relaxation methods as long as you do not fall asleep, it is perfect.
When you are in a relaxed state of mind, ask your guides to come to you. If you need to, you can imagine a guide. Personally, I go without any particular visualization, I’m fine that way.
Ask your questions or the solution to an issue. Usually, the answer will come as your own inner dialogue, so pay attention to your inner dialogue. Your inner dialogue in most case will be the primary channel for an answer. Some people, you will not receive an answer right away but later, they will be guided by a synchronicity to a book, a place, a person or an event that will give an important clue to the answer.
Asking: “How I would do it, if I knew how to do it ” is a very good thing to say when you are in a relaxed trance state. It really helps to unlock your creativity and connect with your higher wisdom. The more you do this exercise the more you get in alignment with your higher-self. It is an excellent and easy method for spiritual development and to solve problems rapidly.
Book: Parallel Universes of the Self
Posted by: | Comments“Parallel Universes of The Self” by Frederick E. Dodson is a book about manifesting (called Reality Creation in the book) and LOA – Law of attraction (called Law of correspondence in the book). I read many positive reviews on Amazon.com and I know people who own the book. But so far, I heard of just one person who successfully used the mean technique of the book called “PURE”.
It demands two basic skills the ability to go in deep relaxation and the ability to stay focused in the relaxation state. The book teaches the later in of its chapter called “Attention and Reality”. I know a guy who is very good at this, he used the same protocol as in the PURE technique. He wanted to be a master in “advanced conversational hypnosis”. He went into deep relaxation and connected with one of his probable self who already has the skill and he accepted to be that self. A few days later, after let it go, he found himself naturally using the skill of conversational hypnosis like it it was always in his nature thus completely skipping the learning stage.
The theory for this to be possible goes like this, if you can think of doing, having or owning something then in some probable realities you are that person, as all possibilities and probabilities exist simultaneously. There is no such thing as movement, the illusion of movement is created by shifting into realities. We shift into realities all the time in every moment. we do not notice the shifts because we adjust our vibrations to shift into realities that are so similar that almost no difference is observed.
back to the book, it is packed with complementary techniques to “PURE” and with alternatives techniques. I have to confess that I haven’t used much of the abundant material of the book at this time. I like the daily intention technique which is one of the most recommended one by the author. I like to learn by reading other people experiences. Frederick Dodson gave a few examples of his manifestations. He talks about the importance of “acting it out”, behave as if you have what you want to create and I liked the example he gave about this in his story “The Hollywood Experiment”.
If you like “The Secret” then you will like this book also, I believe there is something for every readers.
Life is crap …at least for some people
Posted by: | CommentsI met a couple of interesting people lately, through observing them, I learned some important lessons. I will not use their real name, I’m calling them Gareth and Judith.
Gareth told me that he is pretty much fearless, he also laments that he is unhappy because of the absence of a romantic interest in his life. He said that he tried to “pick up” women in bars but he didn’t work for him. I suggested that he would have more chance if he could approach some girls in bus, train, park or library or some stores.
He said he can’t approach in bus because he doesn’t feel safe. But, how comes he is fearless and he can’t approach a girl, there is a quite bit of denial with him, you can’t chant being fearless, if you are afraid to approach a stranger. Now, Gareth sees his “shiness” as a part of himself, he can’t think of him without it, this explains the cause of the denial because ,he has developed his own idea of being fearless and it is based on what he is himself, he can’t think beyond that.
People cannot be grander than their thoughts.
Judith told me that she is a child abuse survivor, she constantly uses her past as an excuse for the life, she has now, I told her, that to change her life , she has to change her thoughts but she answered that she cannot change her thoughts because she has been abused in the past. I tried to explain to her that she has a messy life because she is focused on creating one, she replied that she knows then I asked her, why she doesn’t stop it ? Then she answered that she has been abused in the past.
I gave her baby first step exercise to help her change, I told her to write on paper, what she wants for her life, I said that I couldn’t continue the discussion if she doesn’t do the exercise I can’t spend time with someone contented with the status quo. She said she can’t do the exercise because she has been abused in the past and she said the help of a professional psychotherapist could be better, I agreed. I haven’t heard from her since.

Both Judith and Gareth can’t go beyond their comfort zone, they see themselves one way and it seems that it is impossible for them to project any further. The frustration they feel, the unhappiness and the search for a form of solution, is their “true” self trying to encourage change where the personality is content with the status quo, the difference between the “true” self and the personality causes the frustration, one part of the being want to evolve when another part want to remain the same.

Connecting with the self to explore probabilities and possibilities
Posted by: | CommentsI had difficulty to fall asleep last night I was so energized by the meditation I did yesterday I couldn’t fall asleep.
Also the other day, I wrote about a nap and I had a very vivid dream, it was so vivid that when I woke up I was disoriented, I wondered where I was, I wondered where is the guy I was talking to in the dream, I was receiving some instruction… then I realized I was in my apartment not in the dream location.
Now, I found out what this is all about, I guess it demands some background information to understand but here it is, during the sleep we connect with more of the self that we really are within our psyche we evaluate probabilities and possibilities to create our experiences in waking life. This incident I had is just that I was able to quickly shift from my “dream” self to my waking self and retain the memory of it.
In a book by Robert Perterson “Out-of-Body Experiences: How to Have Them and What to Expect
”. He wrote about this aswell:
My first OBE, with the split-consciousness, showed me that parts of the psyche can be very active during sleep. But I never considered myself an astral social worker by night. That is, until the morning of Tuesday, September 1, 1981, when I had my 46th OBE.
Sometime after midnight, I unexpectedly woke up out of my body. When I awoke, I was standing next to my bed, in the middle of my bedroom. I was a bit surprised, but before I could gather my wits about me, I was “put under” by my subconscious. It felt as if I were knocked out by a professional anesthesiologist.
A while later, I woke up out of my body a second time. Again, I was standing in the middle of my
bedroom. This experience was also cut short when I was “put under” by my subconscious.
It seemed an hour or so passed. Then, just like my first OBE, I slowly started to become more conscious and I was aware of having multiple consciousness. My awareness increased until I was fully conscious, but this time my conscious self was an observer. I was allowed to watch with astral vision, but I wasn’t in control. Another part of me was running the show, doing some very serious work, and knew all the tools of the trade. What I saw was astounding. Read More→
