There is a new series on television right now called "Reven8e". At first glance I thought this was going to be a stupid show, however I have discovered the deeper, hidden meaning behind the plot.
Many of us have experienced our "rights", meaning that we are right in acting, reacting or thinking the way we do simple because the other person has wronged us or has "done" something to us. First, no one.....absolutely no one ever does anything to us that we do not allow to happen to us. If we think that something has been done to us without our allowing it then we have surrendered not only our power but our mind as well. It is within those thoughts that we can wake ourselves up and ask ourselves and see for ourselves where we've surrendered our mind.
The trick of the ego is to make you believe that this is really happening to you. The grace of the spirit is to awaken you gently from the dream/drama. But it feels so good doesn't it? I mean doesn't it feel to good to yell at people, to tell people what you think "they've" done wrong and doesn't it feel good to "know" you are right and they are "wrong" and doesn't it feel good to be mad at someone? Well if you say no it doesn't then why do you keep doing it?
We have all felt at one time or another the anger, hate or greed of another. We have all felt that a person was controlling, rude, arrogant, or ignorant and that we wanted to prove to everyone else how uncontrolled, nice, humble, and knowledgeable we were or are. And yet we hang on to these feelings simply because it makes us feel good, right? Well if it doesn't then why do you do it?
You see, you do everything with some form of hidden agenda or subconscious thought. If you knew for real what was going on then you wouldn't be so quick to be rude, arrogant, or ignorant yourself. ANYTIME THAT WE FEEL WE HAVE SOMETHING TO PROVE TO ANOTHER PERSON WE ARE HIDING FROM THE SUBCONSCIOUSNESS THAT IS CREATING THAT FEELING.
Whenever we have something to prove then we are avoiding our own lesson. Just like the friend that wants to prove how controlling you are is simply setting him/herself up to embrace their creation even more. It is never about controlling others outside of yourself but rather giving your own subconscious mind the direction that it so badly seeks. You see, the ego knows this and wants you to believe that what is outside of you happened first and then you felt it. But in reality it happened within you first and now you are consciously aware of that feeling. Nothing happens to us externally that isn't created within the subconscious mind first.
Can other people's subconscious mind affect you? Only if you have surrendered your own will and have given up on your own subconscious mind. Because it's not that they can do anything to you, but rather the subconscious mind is trying to show you how quickly it can attract anything you desire into your world. If you do not give it direction it is more than happy to show you the chaos within.
But what is happening when we give it direction by saying this is what I want now give it to me, but it never comes? While watching "Reven8e" I discovered that what we want sometimes has its own hidden agenda and it's not until the hidden agenda of why we would want is exposed that all things start falling into place. We have to be real and investigate ourselves of "why do I need or want that". You see if we want something because we feel lack in our lives then the subconscious mind will only attract more lack into our lives. If we want or desire something because we don't want another to have it, then we are creating lack for ourselves, not the other person. You see, what you hold from your sister or brother is what you hold from yourself. HUM!!! Pretty interesting isn't it?
Revenge IS always sweet because it's by realizing what you want for another that you learn where you are hiding your own FREEDOM!!!! The bigger the problem you are going after the bigger the subconscious belief that is attached to it. The bigger the problem you seek to solve, the bigger the subconscious power is used to keep it in hiding.
I used to know these people that would claim that dark forces were robbing us of our power, they were right, but these dark forces are created within. These same people used to think that we were being taken over by aliens, again they were right because anything that is not from Source is alien to us. They believed that they could "X" out the negative forces of other people simply by placing crystals in a particular area, again they were right.....it's about putting all these things in place for ourselves first, never the other way around.
Revenge.....sweet revenge.....who do you hate? Who do you want destroyed? Who has done you wrong? Who's life are you hoping will not turn out? Who's life are you so consumed over that it's all you think about? Here is where you have hidden your power. It is within the walls of your own mind that you have created an illusion to separate yourself and make yourself alien to Source.
Being true to yourself means being able to reflect on any situation in your life and taking the risk of being "true". Being true doesn't mean doing what others may feel is the "right thing" to do sometimes. That said, when we do what is true for us God is there with open arms. You cannot pretend to be powerful, you cannot pretend to be united with Source, and you sure as heck can't pretend to know what is deep within your own subconscious mind as long as you are trying to prove other people wrong.
If the taste of revenge is out to get blood from another and that when you speak their name you can feel your own hate and disgust for this person, then honey you need to wake up because you are sound asleep. There is no one else out there.
