Subtle spiritual communication, friendship and admiration.
Does communication exist on different levels?
Well there are many forms of communication, some of which are very familiar to us because they are commonly used. Others people may have lost touch with. Once we have progressed from childhood most communication is sent and received on a physical level, using energy. If a person thinks they are a mind, they will naturally communicate from the mind. If they have decided they are the body, they will communicate from the body. Either way, the communication occurs on a physical level from mind to mind, body to body, or a combination of the two.
This mind or body communication consists of energy, therefore it has mass, and like everything else in the physical universe, has a density. Whether it is a very light energy like joy or enthusiasm, or a heavier communication containing anger or grief, it is still physical in content. This kind of communication is common – we are dealing with it every day – and at some point most people start believing that they are the mind or the body, rather than they have a mind and body. This is the beginning of many communication difficulties.
But there is a much lighter, more effective way to communicate.
What is that?
The most subtle and effective level is spiritual communication. I don’t mean someone talking about spirituality from their mind; that’s communicating about spirituality. I mean communicating from the natural spiritual viewpoint – detached from the physical. At this point we get into the lighter spiritual perceptions, and this is when communication gets very exciting.
The basic purpose of communication is to exchange realities. If your communication to me contains a more effective or spiritually higher viewpoint than I am currently using, and if you are able to present it to me in a way that I can understand and embrace, then through this creative exchange, my reality will expand to include yours. My reality has literally grown to encompass your reality. This is the intention of creative communication. It is a wonderful tool for the expansion of personal reality and consciousness.
When we communicate from the spiritual, rather than from the physical, we exchange realities in this lighter way - from spirit to spirit. This lighter level does not cause the same kind of resistance because it has less mass. Communicating spiritually is like the difference between talking versus yelling through a megaphone. After awhile, if people are using too much mass or force in their communication, we tune out.
When someone communicates spiritually, there is nothing to resist. Fewer people tend to communicate on these lighter levels, not because they are unable to, but because they have forgotten the natural lighter skills they had when they were younger – because they have forgotten they are a spirit. Through effective meditation they can again become aware of themselves spiritually and these areas of more subtle communication open up once more.
How do people regain this ability?
The problem often is that people try to communicate spiritually from their mind or body. This is just not possible. In order to communicate to another person spiritually, firstly you need to be aware of yourself as a spirit. Otherwise it’s like trying to make a telephone call without picking up the phone. First you have to pick up the phone (locate yourself spiritually) then you have to dial the number (locate another person as a spirit, not their mind, rather, the part of them that is still, without thought or energy) then you are ready to communicate. You have to get thought out of the way to do this. Then you will start to become aware of mental image pictures on a very subtle level. This is how we communicate as spirits. This is how children tell their parents what they need before they can speak, it is the natural ability we were all born with. An ability we can regain through meditation.
How can we improve our ability to communicate spiritually?
Simply by becoming aware of yourself as a spirit, and you will do that by detaching from what is not spiritual. Energy Conversion Meditation helps you do just that. Now were talking about detaching from the physical universe aren’t we, because as spirits we are cause over the physical. In reality you are spiritually separate from the physical world. By decision you can at any time withdraw your line from the physical, rendering yourself at that point aware and detached.
So are you saying that by communicating to a person on that more subtle spiritual level, you can help the person detach from the physical?
Yes, you are helping them out of the negatives, you are rekindling a desire to know again, and this motivates change. Because when they have that borrowed elevation of viewpoint, more causative and outside of any mind which says ‘you can’t’, they can make a spiritual postulate which is very light: It’s a decision made by the spirit. Once somebody makes a spiritual postulate that they will change, they will achieve the change, possibly immediately. It is just a matter of time before they do.
If you are aware of yourself as a spirit you have the ability to create that awareness with anyone you communicate to. Because whether they are conscious of it or not, they know they are a spirit. So, to the degree you have detached from your mind, you can help people you are communicating to, to detach from their minds. At that point they are free from the negatives in life, because all problems concern the physical.
And that is the game you play with people?
Yes, helping people to increase their awareness of what they are, and who they are being, is what I am interested in. Helping the mind or the body is one thing, but getting into communication with and helping the spirit is a wonderful game. Once a person gets in good shape spiritually, the mind and body come into line.
Why do people lose the passion for positive change?
A person loses the inspiration to create change when the human spirit has lost hope of a fine life. When it has been so inundated with the concept that there is no room in life for love, joy and magic that it becomes hopeless. Handling the basic things in life like putting food on the table can become their only focus. If we are not careful, basic survival skills can become our major importance. Then our spiritual evolution or the enhanced survival of the human spirit is ignored. Once we have survival of the body in hand, we can get on with the lighter games. This is a ‘luxury’ some people never afford themselves.
What to you is friendship?
Spiritually it’s bonding – to bond with another spirit and the human spirit as well. Then there is no room for anything else, no room for confusion, uncertainty. No space for negative viewpoints, thoughts or emotions that are anti-human or anti-life. This bonding is an acknowledgement of what we are here for and what our game is about. When we bond we find our common purpose and can mutually create it.
That is what people would like friendship to be. When we have bonded, we don’t have conflict with each other, we are both going in the same direction. This is real friendship. True friendship is unity of purpose on a higher level. And that’s more powerful than just the life of this body, or the life of the next 5 years. Not just life when you are young and handsome and beautiful, no it’s life itself. You have bonded in the game of life. That is bonding of the spirit and it is very strong because it is not based on a physical agreement.
Why is admiration so important?
Admiration is a form of validating what you consider is positive in another person. And that which you put your attention on, grows. If you can locate and have admiration for the qualities in a person which are thoughtful, caring and sufficiently detached from negativity that they can maintain a viewpoint of freedom from pain and suffering in their life, that will help them to maintain and expand that viewpoint. We tend to admire the game a person plays rather than the person themselves. After all it is what you do, rather than who you are that dictates your contribution to the bigger game in life.
