Making Ripples

Ever feel trapped in a job or personal situation that did not turn out as promised?

You agreed to run the family business or to form a relationship and here you are, a few years down the road doing everything you can to keep things going and it is not working out at all. Try as you might, you cannot seem to bring yourself to terminate this relationship even though it is obvious to you and everyone else that the situation is toxic to your mental and physical health.

Why, oh why, you ask yourself, can’t I break free from this awful situation. It feels like it is killing me, but I can’t seem to escape! In fact, you are unable to even think of starting anew. You are so trapped by your own decisions that escape is unthinkable.

You need help, but people have already given you good advice which for some reason you cannot follow because it feels wrong somehow. The main reason you are trapped in this situation is that you made an agreement and do not know how to get out of it. You need to learn how to break agreements that no longer have value and you probably cannot do that by yourself unless you can apply the remedy for this unfortunate situation.

To change or end this situation you are in, you need to carefully recall the decision you made to begin the relationship or to assume your current responsibility. This agreement is what is binding you to this situation and it exists because you are a person with integrity. You were presented with an opportunity and you promised to carry out the actions that were required for the responsibility you assumed. Depending on the opportunity, you promised to love, honor, and obey, or to serve with distinction in some organization or relationship, based on some understanding of what you would receive in return.

The reason the current situation is unworkable is that the exchange that was promised is no longer there. The longer you persist in your current situation, the worse the exchange becomes. You are suffering mental and possibly physical anguish, and you see no way to achieve relief.

If you can recall and review the agreement you made to begin this relationship, you should also be able to recall the exchange you agreed to. What you will probably discover is that some other influence entered the scene and caused the exchange to be modified. Personal relationships break down when other people affect the relationship or one of the people involved undergoes a personality change due to events that are out of your control. 

Business relationships break down for many of the same reasons. Someone competes for your position or the management team undergoes personnel or personality changes. In either event, your original agreement is nullified, even if you do not agree, and your best bet is to sever the relationship and find a new position.

Once you see that your original agreement is no longer valid or workable, you will experience no barriers in finding a new situation that fits your current needs. All of your energies will be directed toward getting results in a new area of your life. You will also find that you have no lingering regrets if you have fully examined your earlier agreements and have understood the reasons you made those agreements.

To handle a past mistake or wrong decision, it is necessary to see all of the reasons you made the mistake or decision. You will stop beating yourself up for things that did not work out if you understand this truth in its purity:

Every action you have ever made, whether excellent or disastrous, made sense at the time or there was no other course of action that seemed possible.

Once you realize this truth, you can stop feeling guilty for things that have gone wrong. If you can also spot any confusion that existed at the time, you will find you can release all attention from this incident.

Some people will be able to change their lives just from the information I have provided here. If you find that this is an area that is too heavily charged to view, I suggest you find a counselor who can give you the support needed to resolve this kind of situation.

Your thoughts affect people, plants, and pets.

If you were truly aware of the effects you create with your thoughts, you would be a lot kinder just for your own well-being, if not for enhanced survival. I know that most people, even those who read my articles, do not realize that thoughts can stunt growth and even kill in some cases. After all, science does not believe in curses and witchcraft and barely understands the ability of a spiritual being, so after years of indoctrination why should you believe that your thoughts could affect another person or animal in a harmful way?

Why, you might as well believe that we are immortal beings who once had godlike abilities and through misuse of those abilities had crippled ourselves to the point where we no longer believe we are spirits and we die when our bodies die. After all, Science believes we have descended from apes and that life began when lightning struck the right combination of chemicals on this planet. They have studies and peer-reviewed papers to support that claim!

I am here to give you some semblance of hope that you are not just a shambling upright hominid, but are an immortal spirit with abilities far beyond anything you may have read about. When you learn to read the Akashic records, you will see activities that indicate we are at the tail end of a dwindling spiral of existence from godlike powers to barely being able to face the world without a morning coffee.

If you can do some simple exercises to see how your thoughts affect others, you might be able to grasp the idea that there are ways to rehabilitate your powers and you can discover the ways on your own. Your first step is to discover that other people’s thoughts can affect you and the second step is to discover that your thoughts alone can affect others.

Step One – Discovering other people’s thoughts

Have you ever worked in a hostile environment? One in which others did not bother talking to you but they looked at you with hateful intent? Did that give you confidence and a sense of well-being or did it make you cringe and shrink back into yourself?

Have you ever had to endure evil or lustful thoughts from family members? How did those make you feel? Especially when you could not mention them for fear of being punished. Those destructive thoughts from others are so common that we tend to suppress our memories of them.

On the other hand, can you remember a time when someone admired you without saying a word? How about a time when someone looked at you with loving thoughts? How did those make you feel?

These are just a few examples of the power of thoughts. They affect us every day and science does not have a clue what they are except to say that they are probably electrical flows in the brain. Thoughts are part of the spiritual realm, but they create results in the physical realm.

Step Two – Discovering the power of your thoughts

I have total certainty on this having seen thoughts make things grow and in other instances wither and die. I have also seen the damage that psychic assault can cause on a person as repairing that damage has occupied the majority of my counseling efforts.

I would like you to become certain that your thought can materially affect the lives of other beings in your vicinity whether they are in human bodies, plant bodies, or animal bodies. Let’s start by silently admiring someone and see how they respond. I would start with someone you know as admiring a stranger can produce unwanted reactions. Anyone who has casually admired an attractive member of the opposite sex, even from a distance, has experienced the shock of having them turn and look at you accusingly. They can feel your admiration, and unless they are in the business of selling their services on the street, they will not be impressed.

If you casually admire a person you already care for, you will generally get a positive response. They will brighten up as though you have delivered a compliment. If you continue to admire them without stopping, they will probably get uncomfortable. This should make it real to you that admiration and the thoughts you send with it are being received by the other person.

On the other hand, if you see someone you despise and look at them with disgust or annoyance, you may see them flinch or return an angry thought of their own. If this is a coworker or someone you have to spend time with, you will make them uncomfortable and will be uncomfortable yourself.

If you take a little time and confirm that your thoughts affect others, you can begin to get an idea that thinking the right thoughts can make your life easier and can gain you support from people who can advance your career and brighten your life.

Taking responsibility for your thoughts and the thoughts you direct at others will put you at cause over your life in ways you cannot imagine until you practice this until you master it. I take this up in my spiritual counseling but you can develop the necessary skills yourself starting from reading this article.

You are not alone in your self-inflicted deafness.

Surrounded By Spirits And Deaf To Their Requests

In order to communicate with someone, you need to consider that they are listening and have something worthwhile to say. If you continue to think of spirits as “things” rather than sentient beings without bodies, you will not begin to understand what they are trying to communicate to you. You will never realize the frustration they feel when you continue to ignore them. You will also fail to see their disgust and indifference when you attempt to give them commands as if they were an Alexa-powered robot.

If you can think of spirits as dead relatives or ghosts of possibly famous people, you are beginning to think of them in a useful way. They are immortal, just as you are, and they have all sorts of useful memories and skills. If you talk with them in a friendly and caring way, you can learn what they know and put it to use for your own benefit.

There are many people who benefit from the advice they are given by friendly spirits. There are child prodigies in every country who display adult skills before they begin school. Some of these prodigies are old spirits reincarnated in new bodies, but others are able to draw upon the skills of multiple spirits like composer Alma Deutscher who has been composing music since she was 6 years old.

I discovered spirits many years ago, but I had always thought of them as things rather than as people without bodies. As time went on and I began to hear their voices in my head and began to see images from their lives, they became quite real to me. I learned to pick up their intentions and their concerns and it became obvious that they were able to influence us and to take control of us at times. On the other hand, they were able to give me advice and warnings at times which made life a far richer experience.

In 2010, I established a spiritual counseling practice and a technology for rescuing these spirits from incidents that captured their attention and caused them to remain hypnotized. Since these spirits are immortal, these beings would remain hypnotized for extremely long periods of time.

Once I recognized these spirits as beings like myself, I was able to ask them intelligent questions and recognize the answers they gave me in return. As soon as I began to communicate with some of these spirits, the others in my vicinity started asking questions and giving me opinions until my entire personal space was in an uproar. During the nights after my first solo sessions speaking to spirits, I had hundreds of spiritual beings demanding to be heard. They had spent uncounted years hanging around me with no way to communicate and once I learned how to communicate with them, they had many things they wanted to share with me.

All I had to do was check frequently during the day to see whether anyone was feeling unacknowledged and let them know I really got that and would make sure they were acknowledged in the future. So, “spiritual deafness” occurs when your spirits go out of communication with you. They shut up and will not communicate to you and you feel “deaf” spiritually.

I found out that my spirits were usually trying to help me. In fact, many spirits are trying to help the person who owns and manages the body and they are generally not acknowledged for their efforts. When they are not acknowledged for their efforts to help, they go out of communication and will not respond when you want their help.

When I learned to communicate with spirits, I started asking them, “Has anyone been unacknowledged?” and I would get these huge responses. I would even get strong emotions and rowdy remarks from the spirits in my space. I started hearing profanity from my spiritual companions for the very first time. It was a hoot! Once my spirits found that I was listening to them and cared about them, the communication turned on like a fire hose.

It may take you several readings of the above to get the idea that spirits are immortal living beings, just like you. They respond to caring communication. They respond positively to admiration, acknowledgment, and recognition of their existence as living beings.

When I take a client in session for the first time, I will ask the spirit questions and have the client tell me what he is picking up from the spirit in response to my questions. In the beginning, the client is often hesitant and has to guess at what he is perceiving but he will quickly gain confidence as I corroborate what the spirit is saying. I can perceive the spirit and what he is communicating so I know if the client is receiving the spiritual communication correctly. In this way, the client starts perceiving and understanding spiritual communication from the very first session. Quite often, the client will doubt his ability after the session but after a few more sessions and he begins to spot the spirits who are making him doubt his ability.

I should have mentioned that most of the spirits surrounding you are stuck in painful incidents which means they are not at their best. If you think of them as crash survivors you will have a sense that they are not operating at full capacity. If you use caring communication with them and ask reasonable questions you will find out why they are with you and what they are trying to accomplish. If you allow them to tell you what is bothering them, you will find they will generally come up to present time and they can become very useful to you as guides and advisors.

I have recently discovered that putting spirits to work will make them happy because they prefer to be productive. If you are doing creative things, you will find no end of helpful spirits to advise you and suggest alternate solutions for problems you are trying to solve. If you learn to manage your spiritual companions, you will find that life becomes almost effortless and much more amusing.

I strongly suggest that you discover your spirits and their capabilities by communicating with them and by asking questions politely. Reading about other people’s discoveries can be quite interesting but your discoveries are the ones that are important as they will give you unshakable certainty.
