Is Crisis Necessary To Effect Change?

What I have observed  in my 72 years of physical embodiment is that we seem to be very reluctant to change at all unless we are presented with a crisis ,and  even then  many of us wait until the crisis becomes critical or life threatening before we actually take any action ,why  is this? Do you think.
I had a number of crisis events in my earlier life and did absolutely nothing about them until my doctor told me I had three months to live ,then  I really listened and sought help with my addiction problem and asked for help.
That was over forty years ago now and I am fit and well thanks to a recovery program I have been in all these years and also to the Higher Self the God within us all ,the  Divine Architect of the universe.
I started meditating in 1975 and have  been involved it it daily all these years, and a what I have discovered from within us is contact with the higher self (soul) that divine spirit within us all, conscious contact and inspiration with the intuition fired up (in-tuition)= learning from within ,contacting  cosmic consciousness and an expansion of awareness ,perception  ,and a deeper
understanding of our physical expression upon this Earth plane
All of us have the ability to do this,all it needs is focussing,persistence and patience,to start by looking within us,and asking the questions,who am I really? What is my purpose here? if we persist in these questions the answers will come to us,we just need to sit quietly look within focus on our breathing, still the way word   thoughts  (it can be done in we persist) and listen to that still small voice from within,that is our higher selves contacting us telling us we are Souls with bodies,and NOT bodies with Souls,there is a BIG difference.

We Are Much More Than We Can Ever Imagine.

What I have discovered in the past forty years or so is that we are all eternal beings ,living  countless
lives and gathering experiences along the way.
We are basically energy ,living  ,intelligent, energy ,expressed in a three fold pattern of physical,
mental ,and  spiritual energy, the physical body is just energy of a lower frequency than that of the mental and spiritual ,we have in fact  several bodies of expression the physical being the lowest vibration or frequency the soul or higher self is the highest.
By looking within and stilling the ever chattering mind we find stillness and peace ,within  this stillness and peace we can listen  to the silence and in so doing our conscious awareness and perception will begin to expand and we will begin to tune into that "still small voice within".

Soul Searching and Sharing Experiences.

Hello and welcome to you all out there in  bloggerland these blogs of mine are not  fancy and I have nothing to sell ,I  find it hard to navigate around the computer and understand all the computer terms and jargon,all I can offer here on my blog is to share with anyone who bothers to read it my experiences of over forty years of soul searching inquiry meditation and reading many books regarding finding your true self and enlightenment.
I want to share what I have discovered and hope its useful to anyone who reads it ,and  perhaps identifies with some of the insights gathered within.
I want to help all who read this to come to believe that gaining contact with your higher self is a normal and natural thing to do (because it is what we really are,"souls with bodies")
It just takes a prolonged willingness and persistence,patience and a firm belief that it will manifest itself to you as it is your heritage and  birthright  to align yourself to the higher being within you.

Expressing the Higher self (Soul)

Little did I know or ever imagine that when I began meditating forty years ago it would lead me to make conscious contact with my higher self (soul).
It evolved over a number of years,beginning with intuition seemingly to "come on line" I began to notice increased sensitivity and as though I was being tuned into a particular frequency and this sounded like a high pitched noise in my ears ,as  though I was being guided by an invisible energy.
Intuition means, "to be taught from within "and  I have come to realize the truth of this, I began by posing questions to myself in meditation like "who am I really ?"and  I began to get answers to all my questions ,I  was amazed at this and was eager to learn more.

Within is expansion Without is Constriction

From the moment a baby is born it is actively encouraged to look without, hanging mobiles over the babies head and swirling them around ,look, look you say keep focussing on this pretty thing.
Many of us then spend the rest of our lives forever looking outwards,focussing on our gadgets and mobile phones ,thinking  that all the while all life answers can be found without ,we  can look in the yellow pages, maybe we can find peace of mind and serenity there.
If we are ever to gain a foothold on reality and purpose of Being we need to look within ourselves for the answer to life's riddle
This of course takes time ,but  at least we have made a start ,for  me it began with meditation and all I was really looking for back there forty years ago was some peace of mind ,being  able to relax  ,and  hopefully find out who I really was ,well  I have discovered so much more, our consciousness,
and perception expand, so does our awareness ,we  begin to tune into higher energy frequencies
and our intuition is active and we start learning from within.

The Soul-ution to finding our Heritage.

We are much more than we physically show to the everyday world, yet many of us are completely unaware of this reality, simply put we are all three fold beings, physical ,mental ,and spiritual  we seem to understand the first two fold expressions but the third expression the spiritual seems to baffle most of us ,it  certainly baffled  me for a long while.
When I first started out in meditation all I thought I wanted to do was to still this chattering brain and find some inner peace and relaxation
Over the years I have found out so much more ,I  discovered that basically we are all energy units ,living energy and we are expressed within many levels the physical being the lowest and lesser frequency.
I discovered that we are souls with physical bodies ,and  not bodies with souls ,the  soul is primal the body is just a vehicle to allow the soul expression in this dense physical realm.
Through meditation we can connect with our higher self ,the  soul and then receive intuition ,learning  from within.
The many questions that arise from within us are all answered here,from within lies true knowledge and wisdom.

soul realization: inclusiveness is the nature of the soul,exclusiven...

soul realization: inclusiveness is the nature of the soul,exclusiven...: We are spirit (intelligent energy) with a physical body, and not a body with a spirit ,there  is a big difference here ,spirit  is the prima...

inclusiveness is the nature of the soul,exclusiveness is the nature of the EGO.

We are spirit (intelligent energy) with a physical body, and not a body with a spirit ,there  is a big difference here ,spirit  is the primal matrix ,the  physical body is secondary and is actually just a vehicle  for the soul to express itself in this dense physical plane, at death the vehicle is exited and the soul (the REAL you) moves on to other adventures.
We need to look within to find our true self and awaken and expand our consciousness ,where  we become more insightful and sensitive to higher energies.
Meditation and Yoga are excellent ways to do this, I have been in regular meditation for the past forty years and have made modest inroads into cosmic consciousness and soul awareness.
We each have a Divine monitor within us it is usually called the conscience or higher self, this is the still small voice that whispers to us at certain times when we need help.

We are expressed in a LIE which =Living-intelligent-Energy.

Who are we? What are we? These are questions mankind has been asking for thousands of years
and there are answers to this most important question ,if we know where to look.
There are of course many books that will say that man is immortal and has a soul and a light body ,however, I have been involved with meditation for the past 40 years and have found this truth
which is vouchsafed within us, if we take the time and effort to look within and find out who we really are.
What I have found over these past four decades is that we are basically and fundamentally Energy,
Living Intelligent Energy ,and  that we are "souls with a physical body ,and   Not bodies with a soul.
Our physical bodies are just a vehicle to allow the Higher self (soul) expression on this physical plane
when we die we just "exit the vehicle" and move into another plane of expression, sometimes called
the Astral plane,which is just another level of expression on a higher frequency than the denser physical plane.

awaken the higher self (soul)

About 40 years ago I came across a old story of an angel flying over a big city teeming with life ,and the angel said, behold the city of the dead! This sentence sent me on a quest to find out what it meant, and 40 years later I am beginning to understand what that angel meant.
We are "souls with bodies" and Not bodies with souls ,there  is a profound difference.
