“When you experience your subconsciousness coming up, all of the darkness, all of the fixations, everything that you’ve put together since you were little, as that comes up you just very quietly within add a tiny little bit of warmth. It’s your warmth. It’s your warm okayness within, your warm openness and softness. The fixations on their own in the midst of a climate change of warmth aren’t going to hold. Your internal climate change is going to permeate all your form.”
“The potential of reality is far far greater than the present configuration of reality. It’s awareness that opens it, by awareness being mastered by what is greater than reality.”
There’s a longing to live the love we know from a fully open heart, and there are the whispers from the ‘lawyer’ within who has other ideas. How should we respond? John describes how, without the ‘lawyer,’ we are like liquid gold in a life that is everlasting.
What to do when wonderful awakening experiences fade away, and resistance, fear and suffering return to our experience? John reminds us that we know something much deeper within, which is different than our self. Suffering is in the self, it comes from what is familiar. There is no suffering in knowing, in being in what knowing is in our heart; and there is no suffering in the purity of liking. Liking knowing the deep within removes the suffering. It’s easy, natural, direct and immediate.
The questioner feels connected to her heart when she is being silent, but when she speaks she feels disconnected. How to speak from the heart? John explains how we are able to open our hearts in the midst of our life, regardless of the experience in our selves. We are able to not close even when there’s pain or discomfort. If we are okay with the cost of that, our selves will change, grow, develop, and purify.
The blocks are what you’ve put in place in your movie life to protect you from your real unseen life. The blocks are made of your role being made important in the movie. Your reason for being in the movie is not about the movie role. It’s about you being present as a being in that movie role. The benefit isn’t for the role, it isn’t for the movie; it’s for you as a being.
We have many energy centres in our bodies. These energy gates are doorways to our being and to deeper levels of existence. The energy that trickles through them is what gives meaning to our life.
