Day 130 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - You Are Aware of Wars

Lesson 130: You Are Aware of Wars...

You are aware of wars, of torture, suffering, rage. In heart of compassion, you see these differently. Instead of being in fear, instead of living in fear, you see them as states of low vibration, low frequency.
— Sara Wiseman

We have the ability to take these lower vibration situations and fill it with higher states. We can do this from the goodness of our hearts and that does come from the passage of compassion. If we  were faced with the challenges of living in a war torn country, wouldn’t our hearts go to those suffering from the effects of it? Even though situations may seem dire, don’t we always try and spread hope?

I’d like to think we aren’t about saving ourselves but seeing another in need and doing our darndest to help them. I feel like I need to help homeless people when I pass them on the street and that’s just a pull I feel. I saw a girl faint at a concert the other day and my gut feeling was to help her. I think when we have this compassion, it opens us to be more instinctive to helping one another. It’s in these bad situations, when we become more resilient for the sake of others. Sometimes we just need to be strong for the other person.

Today we were supposed to think of a situation where suffering was truly “rampant” and for us to hold a higher vibration for the situation. I can’t really think of a personal situation. I can only think of my mother suffering through her divorce but she has made peace with the situation, so there is no need for me to hold a vibration. I don’t think my friends and family are suffering now, so all I can think of is all the animals that are abused in the world, whether that’s on a farm, in a slaughterhouse or they just have abusive owners and hold vibration for them now. Animals have feelings too, and sometimes we are not deserving of their gentle natured, innocent souls.

Lesson 130: As Within, So Without

Following on with the theme of interconnectedness, everything we perceive would indicate a part of our hand in that particular thing or situation. We create our own environments but in turn create everyone’s environments. I see it as the butterfly effect. In the lesson, it’s mentioned that “famine and feast, pestilence and prosperity, illness and health, war and peace” all are shaped by collective consciousness. It just proves that we all have the power to enact change where devastation or a less fortunate circumstance is present. Today we are to think about if our intentions have manifested more powerfully since beginning this course.

I think my intentions are much the same from the beginning. I have set an intention to learn, clear, release and work towards being a person that actual has impact on others. I do these things slowly but I wouldn’t say they are more powerful than before. I still strive for these things even though I am growing. I think all the lessons learned along the way is definitely shaping me to be better as a person, though I don’t think I am more powerful. I think more knowledgeable for sure, but I think I still need to harness the power within that knowledge in order for it to spread. I took the slow and steady pace to test my patience. There are times when I lose the ability to hold patience, though I don’t think learning fast has benefits when it comes to spirituality. I am being surprised every other day with what I learn, and whom I meet. I’m kind of just chill about things. If I want to make a big impact, I think I need to absorb all that I can in order to make a lasting impact also. I want what I learn to hold substance and people remember that I’m relatable. Everything I do, is to one day expand the collective consciousness, in my own way and no bullshit telling people what to do. I just give my opinion and hope it resonates. And, that’s how I hope to always be. I wouldn’t want people to follow me, I’d rather shape their own opinions based on words I’ve said. Standing together is more impactful that leading people. But, that’s just me.
