Have you heard the expression, yudda, yudda, yudda and they do their hands like someone is talking? Well maybe, just maybe the Hebrew Letter Yod is where this comes from. We are being asked with Yod to look at what is important, or what are our priorities. When this little punch of a letter shows up it can ask us to be looking at some really strong questions, like, "Is this really that important to me."
During my meditation today I was being asked to be still. At first I thought this was because the cats were jumping around and I was wanting to get up from meditation. But I soon discovered as I sat there quietly that I was literally being asked to be quiet and still. I realized through this little action that I had spent so much of my life just being busy. It really didn't matter what I was busy at as long as I was busy.
So I looked deep within to see where this belief came from. I remembered my mother always being busy, but also telling us all the time the things that needed to get done around the house and called me lazy if I didn't do them. Of course we can carry this into our jobs, our relationships and this belief on to our children.
As I thought about this history in how this belief got started I quickly discovered that none of it was real. The only thing that was real was this moment in time and that I continued to hold on to that belief in order to have it affect me right now. You see if all there is is the present moment then what is all that other stuff behind us? Nothing more than the thoughts that we put together in order to have the experience we are having right now.
Many of us love living in the past of what has happened to us. It validates that we have the right to feel and believe what we do. Oh, no...I can't do that I remember the last time that happened. Oh no, I can't go back to school because I remember when I was 12 I just couldn't make the grade. All of these statements are more than non truths. You don't know that you won't make it this time, but if you keep up that kind of attraction in your life then guess what,you'll get more of the same results.
You see your history is but an illusion. Just as the meteor shower is able to show us that things happen that can light up our night sky, or we can keep them invisible to us. What is invisible? The reality that you keep locked away within you own minds.
We can look at things now in order to see what illusions we agreed to participate in, but wouldn't it be wonderful if we were able just to listen to our heart and say, "nope, or yes" to what is necessary to help us grow today? Well you can and here's how. As soon as you find yourself going through you brain filing cabinet, immediately close it and ask yourself, "How do I feel about this?" and allow your body to guide you. You see the body doesn't lie, only the mind can imagine all kinds of crap.
Someone said, yes but when I think about that it makes me feel scared. Well of course it does you "think" about it. Then they say, well how can I know what I feel if I don't think about it? Well you see that is the pickle now isn't it? As soon as you find yourself thinking about the situation first and then feeling it's backwards. But when you find yourself feeling it and then thinking about it then you're on to something. Now if it doesn't make you feel any particular way until you thought about it then you allowed your thoughts to take control..
There are so many people out there saying, "Yes, but I can control my thoughts." Really? How's that making you feel where you are right now to do that? Many tell me not good. Then you are not in control of your thoughts, but still projecting. You see anytime we are projecting that's going to come back to us on a vibrational level. So if you are thinking thoughts that are disconnected you from truth then you are going to receive more feelings that are letting you know you are getting further and further and further away from Source.
The person that has been given information about something important in their life will play with this in their mind for months before acting on it. When it comes time to act on it it's not what they pictured. Then they say, "Oh, I need to go back and do that again. I didn't do something right." Well, you're right! You were living that lie out in your mind and God is letting you know that that play is over. On to a new role.
Life isn't about figuring out every step we are going to make. The real power in life, as Yod is showing us, is how to handle our true power by just being present. Allowing life to flow around and in us. Our little hands are powerful but until we learn to be humble with what is that power will remain hidden within God.
We all can join hands with God, but it's when we think that our hand can do a better job than what He's doing that we miss the boat and sink the hand back into the bottom of the abyss.
Belief Statement: During a meditation I was told this rash is not poison ivy and I felt relieved. I don't know exactly what it is but I know that it's lasting a long time. I gain impatience while losing focus.
Spirit Statement: While meditating I heal with relief knowing exactly that time exist while flowing with focus.
Okay, so look at your life today and count 10 things that you are thankful for, 10 things that you appreciate right now, and 10 things that you are going to do today.
Love, V
