Dealing with Reality

Here’s a nice article. I shall translate it to English later…

　　希腊神话里，爱神丘比特身上背了两支箭，一支金箭，一支铅箭。传说被金箭射中的人就会滋生爱苗，情爱如痴，被铅箭射中的人就反目成仇，恨之入骨。
　　一般人总是希望永远不要被铅箭射中，而且希望天天被金箭射中。可叹的是，丘比特总是双箭连发，当一个人为金箭沉迷的时候，第二支箭马上就射来了。
　　但是人有所不知，金箭与铅箭不是背在丘比特身上，而是背负在我们自己心上。我们热爱一个人的时候，其心如金，闪闪生辉，所到之处鸟语花香皆如春天；我们怨恨人的候,其心如铅，灰败沉重，所到之地冰雪封冻，一如严冬。
　　其实我们每个人都背负着金箭与铅箭。
　　爱神，就是我们自己。

Today I would like to share a very good article written by an indigo child.

Dear World,

There are so many things I would like to explain to you, so many wonders, so many incredible and exciting things. They are all one thing really, one truth, that is so simple, but needs so much traveling to get to before anyone who has forgotten it can understand it fully.

Firstly, no matter what you believe, there is one thing that unites all peoples, and that is this: the filling and beautiful feeling, the existence of love in each persons heart. It is there in everyone, everything, every person and object and idea and feeling. It is the basis of everything. It is the base substance, out of which everything else exists.

If it is not love, it is not there, it is an illusion of the ego, the mind.
This is the great truth, the wonder of life.

Secondly, how you experience reality, that intricate and subtle thing you call real, is your personal creation. You have made it of your love, it is yours wholly and fully, and will always be yours. So, in effect, you are existing inside yourself, or what you think of as your mind. In this way, everything is a reflection of an aspect of yourself, and you recognize it as this also. This means that there is no polarity, no right or wrong, only is, and it is you. Do not judge what it, do not label it, this creates separation.

In that everything is you, so you are everything.

This is a part of what is meant by ‘all is one’.

Everyone else is a part of you, and so you are a part of everyone else. The meaning of love is the recognition that that person is another facet of yourself, and you are a reflection of a part of them. In this way, love can be learnt of all things, and non-things. Fear is the separation of these parts, and the un-acceptance ‘that’ that is a part of what you think of as yourself. But to join these parts, painful as it may seem, is easy and fulfilling.

To fully love something you do not like or understand, that is to make it a part of yourself again, to un-break yourself. So reach out, be that thing, find it’s reflection in your heart, resonate with it and love it, accept it for being there. And you will be whole again.

This is the great secret that is no secret, it is so simple, so real, you can do it today, right now. Accept it, do not fight it. Love truly is all that is, and you are love.

As I have said on my matrix post,
emotions are directly related to our reality.

Emotions exist in the form of energy.
There are many different emotions with certain frequency.
They ripple through the matrix and affect the reality around us.

Higher emotions like love, compassion and gratitude have high frequency and are energetic
(those of you who do love meditation for a prolonged time can feel the strong vibration)
and Lower emotions like hatred, sadness and fear are at the lower end of the spectrum and they keep you low in energy.

Emotions are not something weak or negligible.
When you always feel lower emotions,
or when you choose to accept that the reality is pessimistic,
you will encounter events that are not good
or you will encounter people who are negative.
It is like the law of attraction in life.

Emotions have butterfly effect in reality.
They seem to be negligible but a small swing of emotion affects the people and events around you.
If you read Zen stories,
you will know that emotions play a big role in putting you in certain state and event in life.

You can observe the people around you.
Those who get angry all the time
or those people who always feel negatively and criticize others negatively
They encounter many negative events,
as if life does not run smoothly and reality bites.
Observe how they live their lives and how satisfying they are with their realities.

Embrace higher emotions,
or at least feel good in life.
Laughter helps to charge you up and happiness will make you stay healthy.
Stay happy and make other people feel good.

I would like to recommend you to read this book
Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman.

This book discusses about emotions .
It provides useful tips on how to deal with negative emotions.

For example
it says that to deal with anger,
you have to observe yourself and realise that you are angry
and choose to do other activities instead of attaching to it.

I hope you will gain a lot of useful information from this book.

The world seems to be imperfect
It is because many people are ignorant and they make “bad” choices in life.

Many people choose to attach to lower emotions like hatred, greed and sadness.
Not many people choose to embrace higher emotions like love, compassion and gratitude consistently.

To help in improving humanity,
the best thing you can do is being a good example.

Practise what you preach,
choose to think wisely
choose to feel positively
choose to talk and act properly
and choose to treat others well.

Let go of attachment towards negativity and avoid things that are unhealthy

By being a “good” person,
you are changing the world starting from yourself.
People around you are connected to you so it is important to show them good examples of livelihood.
The reality will gradually improve.

It won’t help to attack negativity with negativity because negativity will bring more damage.
Choosing positively is the healthy way to improve situations.

To help humanity,
The best thing you can do is being a good example.

Certain music promotes higher emotions like love and gratitude.
It makes you feel very good and positive.

It is good to listen to positive music but do not attach to them.

I have found some nice music links
You can download the music by clicking them below.

Men, Women

Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Taoists etc.

Caucasians, Asians, Africans, Latins, Native Americans etc.

These are the separation in humanity.
Each group of people expresses that they are right or they are better than others.

Comparing, Competing, Fighting, Going to war and killing etc.

Choose to let go the attachment towards the differences.
We are all humans.
We are all living beings with life and free will.
We do not need to treat people conditionally.

Higher emotions (love, compassion, gratitude) lead to unity.
Lower emotions (hatred, greed, envy, pride) lead to separation.

Pursuing something boldly or taking risk in doing something is courageous.
Letting go requires courage too.

One can do anything to gain something
but is (s)he willing to let go (her) his possession?

Not many people have the courage to let go.
They fear loosing something valuable in life.
They do not really realise that nothing stays constant in life, as things and events are just illusions and they do not stay with us forever.

Money, fame, friends, lives etc.

Choose to overcome such fear and let go the attachment.

Only people who can conquer themselves have the courage of letting go.

Courage does not always come with might.
It can be very gentle.
It is the courage of letting go.

We are living with other people in life.
We are connected in some ways so it is important to have a healthy flow in our social network.

If possible avoid hurling negativity at anybody around you.
Somehow the negativity will come back to you and it is unhealthy for everyone.

One way of making your life healthy and positive is to make other people feel good.
Give polite compliments, wish people when you meet them and make them laugh.
In return you live in positive environtment.
You will eventually reap what you sow.

Life is wonderful when people around you feel wonderful

There are two poles of emotions.

The lower spectrum of emotions consists of “bad” emotions like anger, hatred, greed, lust and fear.

The higher spectrum of emotions consists of “good” emotions like love, compassion and gratitude.

Emotions are important in our lives because they are our inner states that will attract certain realities and outcome.

Choose not to let negative events bring you to negative emotion.
If you are experiencing negative emotion,
choose to let it go by not attaching to it and embrace the higher spectrum.

By embracing the higher spectrum consistently,
you will find that life is meaningful and not stagnant.
It promotes the flow of life and attracts positive outcome to you.

If you feel that life is stagnant and meaningless,
simply choose to let go the state you are experiencing
by not attaching to negativity
and choose to embrace the higher spectrum.
Smiling helps as it is a physical mean of choosing the higher spectrum.

People who embrace the higher spectrum will have the flow in life and live meaningfully.

Your thought and Emotion affects your life greatly.

People always have the perception that thought and emotion is something “inside” us
Most probably it is because they have inner physical sensation when they feel or think of something.
There is no saying that our consciousness is “inside” our bodies.
Our consciousness can be enveloping the physical body instead of residing “inside” it
or perhaps the consciousness is timeless and spaceless and it perceives through the physical body.
If that is the case, our thought and emotional process is affecting not just ourselves, but also our surrounding, as there is “connection” between our inner world and outer reality.

We are like souls with bodies, not bodies with souls.

What we think and feel attracts similar realities,
which will lead to similar outcome.

Thinking and feeling is actually making choices because we actually choose to think and feel.
Many people do not realise it as they have accepted that feeling and thought is something naturally fixed and not their choice. It is not true.
By making choices, even subtle choices of feeling and thinking,
you are choosing and attracting reality in life.

So be careful of what you choose to think and feel.
Choose to avoid negative thinking and emotion when they arise.
Attaching to this negativity will only cause you to be trapped in the loop of life where negative events will repeat themselves endlessly.
Therefore it is important to let go of the attachment towards negativity.

Avoid attaching to negativity (hatred, sadness, anger, greed).
One has the free will to choose to embrace the higher spectrum (love, gratitude).
Choose to have love and compassion and think healthily
and you will find that your life events are positive.

Being in a state is about being ( choose to be )
not doing.

For example,
You just be happy, you don’t do happiness or become happy.
You just simply be happy in the now.

To be in a state like happiness,
you just choose to be happy.
Smiling helps to bring you to that state.

Even if you are not feeling well,
you can fake it till you make it
( faking is a way of choosing using imagination )

so just let things go,
relax, smile and be happy .
