For quite a spell, I have been writing about my woes. A shift of focus may shift the energy.

“Earth, Spirit Living” : “Among other things, gratitude opens our heart, senses and creativity to the good that we ask for.”

I celebrate the fact that my potted plants have been taking turns to add color to our small garden with their flowers. I am happy enough with the lush growth of leaves but flowers are a bonus.

The money plants in my bedroom used to be BONSAIS but now are tall and wild. They not only give me oxygen but they are a great help in checking my Monkey Mind. It is as though they recite the Ho’oponopono prayer along with me, the Spanish version: “Lo siento. Perdon. Gracias. Te amo.

Daily, several times each day the Facebook posts of Dr Lipton put m in the right frame of mind. Neale Walsch talks to my soul. Gary Zukov reminds me to be a multisensory individual and to go to my higher self. Mike Dooley presents daily a different perspective from those who write in his “Thoughts Become Things” blog.

With Shamanism and Ho’oponopono the reality I desire is attainable!

Bente Hansen: “You are a spirit being having a human experience and are here to learn who you really are and what your purpose.”

“The only way to truly begin to gain this insight is to listen to your inner voice.”

This goes with my belief that I chose to enter into this life to explore what it mean to be made to the image and likeness of God.

Only I can do this for myself.

“No one else knows exactly what is most appropriate for you”. (Bente Hansen)

“Someone else can only say what he or she thinks best. That judgment is based on their EXPERIENCES and PERCEPTIONS which are not necessarily in harmony with your
highest good.”

The above from Hansen explains why I believe I am my best doctor.

“When you possess genuine SELF-CONFIDENCE [it is] empowering and generates feelings of strength and wellness.”

The above explains why I have chosen to be guided by the 7 Principles of “Urban Shaman”.

“You have a specific purpose or path in this life. Living your life according to the expectations and demands of others will not assist you to achieve this.”

“When giving priority to the needs of others while neglecting your own, you are actually giving a message that you are not important.”

“This yet again, is another aspect of the limiting belief around lack of self-worth.”
(Something sustained by the RELIGIOUS virtues of FALSE HUMILITY!)

“This message is felt within your energy field as your energy is continually directed toward supplying the needs of other people.”

“You are literally giving your energy away in order to sustain their needs or desires
thereby depleting your own reservoir.”

“It is only when there is awareness of your purpose and you align your life accordingly that you are able to achieve real meaning, passion, and joy in all aspects of life.”

The above should calm religious objectors afraid that one who loves himself will be selfish and/or proud!

“When experiencing this state, it becomes easy to have more compassion, understanding and acceptance of others and their unique powers.”

“You come to value their special spirit without DENEGRADING or DEVALUING yours in any way”.
(Quotes are from Bente Hansen)

Using Gary Zukov’s “multisensory” human concept, I enjoyed rather than feel frustrated by yet again waking up in the wee hour of the morning. I celebrated the various subtle movements inside my body. I suspect I had adhesions and twisting of muscles/organs as an aftermath of my 2012 mild stroke.

With each very deep breath from the pit of my stomach and with accompanying jaw movements, I thanked my body (a la Urban Shaman) for becoming healthy.

I recalled Zukov’s interview in the Alps by Lilou Mace. “It is written” according to Paolo Coello as reported by Zukov. YOUR HIGHEST POTENTIAL. I believe that when I chose to enter into this life (not banished I was given all I would need to explore what it is to be made to the image and likeness of God.

Instead of a personal contract with God, I now believe in the HIGHEST POTENTIAL concept. I was corrected by a Facebook User. God does not have terms and conditions.
So, I have changed my contract belief!

The multisensory human concept of Zukov along with the Lilou Mace interview in the Alps have expanded my consciousness. Indeed ALL POWER COMES FROM WITHIN. Principle #6 of Urban Shaman. I am both a body and a soul and the faster I treat my body lovingly, the faster I will heal and pursue my purpose for coming into this life effectively.

For all my intensive Ho’oponopono work of more than a year, I realize I am still stuck in my Biblical “DOMINION” phase. Control is still my major Program/memory. All my management courses and my administrative experiences have not helped me to flow.

Control was a very important component in my worldview from childhood through my working years. Anticipatory planning was the enabling tool. Day-in-day-out I was on red alert.

I thank God hat our only daughter defied control through her unique charming ways. It was as though she was already aware of her divinity. It was a blessing that she left home for college. Her early travels must have helped her. I am consoled that she has repeatedly declared her gratitude for our loving parenting.

Thanks to my husband’s sharing about Dr Serafin Talisayon. I have moved from spirituality to consciousness work. I understand “CONSCIOUSNESS” is a neutral term; it does not send shivers to those who are staunch religion-based devotees.

Coincidentally (There are no coincidences, I know) somebody from Facebook recently corrected me. I commented on a post by Neale Walsch about my personal contract with God. But the Facebook user pointed out that God does not terms nor conditions.

My personal contract with God may be considered a “pet theory” in the paradigm of Dr Talisayon. It has been working for me. However, I can change. According to Principle # 7 of “Urban Shaman” there is always another way of doing things.

I dream that I will be liberated from the programs that prevent me from going about my adventure into this earth with ease and grace. I dream that Ho’oponopono will so connect me with God that I can focus on my divinity.

I want to be cleared of my productivity worldview. Martha Beck describes this worldview such: “All of us have been taught to make things happen in the physical world…it takes…working, working,working, working, working.”

“Then it helps if we work harder.”

I want to be liberated from the economy of salvation belief. I want to unlearn the concept of travailing: suffering so that God can bless others.

I am sure God is kinder and wiser than Esther Hicks and the Law of Attraction. I am sure God knows more than Joe Vitale. I believe God will inspire me what to do.

Joe Vitale observed: “People don’t get what they say so much as what they feel. Most people who pray don’t believe they will be heard or they will be helped. Most people pray from a place of desperation which means they will get more of what hey are feeling:more desperation.”

I want to introduce a new program into my consciousness. The new program consists of using the Ho’oponopono not as a clever trick to avoid suffering nor as a psychological technique. I want to learn from “Freeing the Soul from Fear” which teaches that everything has to be viewed as soul work not merely as therapy.
