Day 88 The Charismatic Power of The Way

When you begin to understand that everything here is the Essence of Creator and that you too are the Essence of Creator you will begin to experience a unity with all of creation both manifest and non- manifest. And in this unity that you can grow to experience, you will find you are freed from labeling, greedy passions, and “shoulds”. This opens the Way. Things begin to happen to you. You do not will them to happen, you allow the Essence of Creator to affect you and of course it will affect you in positive ways. You can become empty of ego and align in the Oneness of Creator.
When you are empty of ego you can then wander freely, with the coming and going, become fluid, become your spiritual self. You will then attain Te which is power and virtue.
Make a place inside yourself for your spirit to reside, to live, and it will come of its own will and take up residence within you.
Cease acting through the ego and begin to act through the Spirit. Let Creator instruct your every action.
Force brings the opposite of what you intend. Just allow, accept and receive.
Throw away good and evil, judgment, and stop thinking so much! Follow no path and you will attain the perfect path of Creator.
The Shaman has an internal quality called nei shang that moves her in and out of the world of time and space. She embraces the WAY, a fertile chase full of the Original Energy, the Esssence of Creator called yuan chi. She has a powerful beneficial influence on her surrounding, the charismatic power of the Way, The Path of Creator.
I have much more that I so very much want to teach you but I can only teach you what you can understand today.

Day 68 Stuffing Emotions or Using Emotions

There is a difference between stuffing your emotions and controlling your emotions. Stuffing means not recognizing them, not allowing yourself to express how you feel emotionally, feeling that by showing your emotions you are doing something wrong. I think that stuffing is not balance.

Emotions are tools like screwdrivers. The best use for them is to bring happiness joy and love to those around us and thereby attain these things for ourselves and also to propel your intentions forward into manifestation. Now if you hide all your screwdrivers, how can you use them to build that patio? So it is good to see your screwdrivers, to learn what they are, how they work, what they are for and how to use them properly. It takes a bit of practice to learn how to use a screwdriver properly. Sure you can throw it at a wall but that won't do much good. And that is what we do with our emotions. We throw them around and even at each other without realizing that they are actually tools!

Too many people walk through life these days with one driving thought, "how does this make me feel?" They let how they emotionally feel make all their decisions and judgments for them. That is like a baby crying for its bottle! We have so many other ways to determine our decisions and judgments for us. We have life experience, our own beliefs, our own goals and goodness to choose with. Emotions are just screwdrivers. It would be like saying, "what does my screwdriver tell me to do now". ! LOL!

If I gave a screwdriver to every person walking around being led by their emotions we would see everyone talking to a screwdriver constantly! LOL!

So yes, emotions are valuable, as tools! We should learn about them, experience them, learn to use them wisely. Emotions are also part of our sensory equipment. I use my emotions to alert me to negative or positive energetic fields. I have stood in "places of emergence" and just felt what I felt just to feel it. It taught me something more about that place than if I had stuffed my emotions and not used them in that place.

Emotions are tools. We can easily use them for our own good and the good of others. Why didn't anyone teach you this? Good question!

Day 44 Finding One's Path

A call to Shamanism is a haunting thing. Some people who are called to Shamanism study actually suffer physical maladies which are words from Spirit to prod one to the path they belong on. The other side of the picture is a force that tries to prevent one from finding one's path. In everything there are two poles. It is a universal law. So you feel the tug to learn your path and also the tug to be too busy to learn.

I have found that for those students that try to maintain both things there is no peace. Being too busy indicates that you are hiding from your path. And the usual way we hide from our path is to be busy trying to help others on their paths. But living our lives for others does nothing for our own path. We can follow our husbands and children on their paths and we often do. But what of our own path, what of our purpose for being here? Was it really to follow our kids and mates around? Do you know that they will follow their paths with you or without you? Sure they appreciate you making it easier for them, but if it were not you, they could still manage or would find someone else to do it. And following your path is really something you do for yourself and you do alone. It is the path to home, to peace, to fulfillment. Many women seek fulfillment in helping their families but there is only a small amount of fulfillment there and as we get older and see our own path being neglected we become less and less fulfilled.

So you have to decide for yourself if you are ready to walk your own path. And it doesn't mean not being there for your family but rather taking steps to walk your own path. This course will lead you to that path. And as you study and practice, your path will become lit and you will know it. If you are meant to be a healer you will see the the way to do that. If you are meant to practice Shamanism you will be led to do that. The purpose of your life will become clear and then it will be your decision to walk that path or slink back onto the path of someone else. Some students are not ready to walk their own path. But at least in this ongoing, online course I offer to anyone willing to look, they see their path clearly and can make that decision deliberately. Some students have never seen their path and when they find it they embrace it wholeheartedly and become healers, happy, whole and fulfilled.
