Raw Honesty May Deepen the Bliss Into Actualization and Full Embodiment

tania....i like and agree with the essence of what you are saying. one of my teachers refers to a "brutal" honesty with oneself. to me it is about being aware of everything and allowing everything.....

I really liked this post and I agree with a lot of what you are saying here.  My beloved teacher always says, "Is this true for you?" and to ALWAYS be "Brutally Honest with Yourself, and if you are unable, find a trusted friend to be brutally honest with you."   For me, it is all about acceptance and allowing things to naturally to flow; not forcing anything. Namaste and I agree, we are all in this together; One Heart beat!

Oh wow. Does this hit the nail on the head!?!? This is where I am presently. Trying to learn how to Live In Truth. An awesome undertaking. This article also reminded me of something you posted last month from The Arcturian Group through Marilyn Raffaele:

''It is not the intellectual knowledge of truth that makes the changes, for that is but the first step.  It is the practice–the pondering, reflecting, living of truth until it becomes your state of consciousness.  That is the work dear ones, the practice and living of truth in each and every moment. With time this will  become very easy because it will have integrated into your being and will be the “new you”. This is why things do not yet appear to be changing, for there is work yet to be done before it can manifest, but it is coming dear ones, you are creating a new world with your awakening.
 
''Do not spend a lot of time listening to the news or reading about  negative manifestations in the  world, for this allows appearances entrance into your consciousness and unless you have evolved beyond being affected, simply adds your energy to them.  Be aware of world events, but do not enmesh yourself in them, translating world appearances instead into truth.  For example;  when becoming aware of current war and conflicts, say to yourself; “Yes I see this chaos, but I know the truth is that there is no law to support this, that it is the manifestation of the belief in duality and separation. Every person involved is a Divine expression but they do not know it and therefore are seeking peace and love in the only way that they are aware of at this time according to their belief system.”  Send light and the violet flame to these people and places without placing any directions on it as to what it is to do.''

It also reminded me of one of the best pictorial examples of our dilemma. The once comfortable and dependable ways of seeing the world just won't do anymore. But it's hard to change habits unless you recognize you have them:

And finally, there was this: ''I get the sense of some new structures being built upon old and weak foundations...''

That statement reminded me of a parable my father, who was a Christian minister, used to tell of Jesus admonishing his disciples not to ''put new wine into old skins.''

That line seems very apropos at the moment!

Namaste!
