Better Reading And Spiritual Practices | SpiritNav

Better Reading and Spiritual Practices. If you want something better to read than this blog I can suggest at least two books that are infinitely more helpful. The concepts in both these books overlap: their point is to let go of illusions. Illusions are ideas about reality that are untrue which we mistake for truth. Because they are based in fear, they create fear and misery and confusion. The books approach this task of releasing illusions from different angles. Hawkins’ “ Letting Go. When I first read ...

RELATIONSHIPS | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/category/relationships
It is just as futile to expect people, ourselves included, to always behave in a way that we consider most convenient to our own passing whimsies. We may resent others for not cooperating with our imagined needs. For all this resentment, mostly our beliefs about what we need are in fact the opposite of what is actually needed. Nothing is in fact needed other that what is. Things are fine as they are. The idea that you can harm me is untrue. Whether things go our way or they don’t, we are fine. ...Even ki...

HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/category/higher-self
That Frozen movie last year (number five box office earning film of all time) had that song Let It Go. This year we have Ryan Adams singing Let Go. Even Taylor Swift is a Blank Space. The subject of not holding on seems currently on point for little and big babies alike. I guess with all the shit overwhelming and bombarding us right now, all the empty opinions and trite imperatives, we have no choice but to let go and let go and let go or drown fast. For help, read Letting Go by Dr David Hawkins. Time br...

ART OF WORK | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/category/art-of-work
Three years ago I wrote a post called: Why I Prefer Astrology To Therapy. I learnt to read charts growing up from my father. I thought that astrology was just a fun hobby, like any other personality typing system. I didn’t take it seriously, just like I didn’t take any of the things I truly loved very seriously. It wasn’t until I found a series of brilliant astrologers and paid them to read my chart in depth, however, that I started to give astrology the respect and attention if warranted. A big part of ...

Death By Obligations | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/2014/12/11/death-by-obligations
So much of our energy and life is consumed by what we think we have to do, and who we think we have to be. The ideal varies from person to person. Obligations comes from the level of thought and reason. They may appear rational, but they are not. They are reactions to unconscious fears and the compulsion to control what cannot be controlled. When we devote ourselves to conforming to ideals, we waste all our energy on conforming to an illusion. That is exhausting. No longer having to be anyone or anything...

Life Is What We Are | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/2014/12/06/we-get-what-we-are
Life is what we are. The world around us reminds us of who we are inside. As we interact with the world, we only see what we are. We can only be made depressed by the evening news if we have sadness and despair within. We can only be made furious by a friend if we have fury to give away. Ideas only stick with us if they connect to what is inside. They slip away, unnoticed and discarded, if they don’t connect to us in any way. We can take responsibility for our experience of life by seeking to release the...

The Bliss Of Being | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/2014/12/07/the-bliss-of-being
The bliss of being. The more we experience the bliss of being, the more all other things become progressively lacklustre. We become bored with what had formerly excited us. People, places and objects that thrilled us and annoyed us become things we scarcely notice. We let go of the sense that our judgments are truth. We can spend our whole lives moving from distraction to distraction. Escape and avoidance underpin much of our economy. Entertainment, consumption, work and liquor would be of far le...Seeki...

I’m Only Sleeping | SpiritNav
http://www.spiritnav.com/2014/12/28/im-sleeping
I’m only sleeping. 8220;As a person constantly surrenders, physical and psychosomatic disorders improve and frequently disappear altogether.” – Dr David Hawkins, Letting Go. Sleeping is lovely, yes, but even more lovely when you know you’re dreaming. There seems to be a link between believing that falsehoods are true and being insane. That seems obvious. And yet we are all so very insane because we don’t know we’re dreaming. What we perceive is mostly fantasy. 8220;Can you really know that is true?
