Tips for Gentle Healing Year 2 – Day 233 – 2nd Titus 1-3

October 18, 2021

NTI Titus is a section filled with pithy statements that help us review NTI’s recent teachings. Here’s how I recommend reading NTI Titus:

  1. As you read NTI Titus, write down any statements that stand out to you as especially important or meaningful.
  2. After you have finished reading, go back and contemplate the statements you wrote down.
  3. Write what comes to you as you contemplate those statements. If you are guided into deeper journaling, follow that prompt.

It’s likely you will have a very insightful experience with NTI Titus if you contemplate it as I’ve recommended. Don’t feel like you have to contemplate every sentence in NTI Titus. Ask inner wisdom to help you know which sentences/paragraphs are for you.

Note: The next tip will be available tomorrow morning after 3:50am ET at this link.

Thoughts of Awakening # 233

Asking “What am I?”
bypasses the mind
and its question of “Who am I?”

“Who” implies identity.
“What” remains open.

When asking “What am I?”
remember also to answer definitions with
“I do not know who I am.”

In the absence of identity,
truth can emerge.
In the absence of identity,
“I” can be known.

Tip for Gentle Healing Year 2 – Day 232 – 2 Timothy 3 & 4

October 17, 2021

Let’s review how the creative principle works. When we place believing attention (faith) on thought, emotion or perception, the energy of that thought, emotion or perception is reprocessed into a new experience with the same energy. We could say that we “pray” for a particular experience by putting faith (believing attention) in that energy. For most people, experience is a repeating loop, because each time a particular energy comes into experience, they believe it. This loop has been expressed this way:

What I think, I see.
What I see, I experience.
What I experience, I think.

You can free yourself from this loop. You can:

  1. Use discernment to let go of untrue thought. (Ref: NTI Ephesians 4)
  2. Remember that the current perception comes from past believing, and choose to experience it differently now. (Ref: NTI Ephesians 5)
  3. Experience an emotion with pure awareness instead of believing a story about it.

Today’s reading teaches the third option in the previous list.

Today’s reading says:

Let’s remember that the world is only a prop made by the mind in order to generate the experience the mind has already decided to have.

When did the mind decide to have a particular experience?

It decided to have a particular experience when it gave believing attention to a previous experience with the same energy. As today’s reading says:

The world is a prop, but the mind (believing attention) wrote the play.

The prop is magnificent as a prop, because consciousness is brilliant and free to create any experience it desires. The world is extremely effective at bringing up emotional experiences for us to experience. However, if we want to be free of the loop of experience, the way to experience experience is to experience it fully with pure awareness instead of with believing attention.

Pure awareness is a prayer for pure awareness.

Believing attention is a prayer for experience that is different from truth.

This is true, because your way of being  is creative spirit.

Beware of the temptation to blame someone or something else for your way of being. Blame can only come from believing the story or perception, and believing attention keeps one in the loop of experience.

To “heal” is to become free of the artificial loop of experience. “Healing the mind” returns one’s attention to pure awareness instead of outward believing attention.

It’s also true that pure awareness has no fear in it, so whenever we are afraid of our thoughts or feelings, we are looking at those thoughts or feelings with believing attention. Whenever we notice that we are afraid of our own experience, it’s time to drop into the heart and shift into pure awareness.

How can you do that?

Remember your spiritual aspiration.

Your spiritual aspiration is like a compass that always points to the heart. By placing your mind with your spiritual aspiration, you move attention from belief in the world to the heart’s motive. By placing attention with the heart’s motive, you move into the heart. From the position of the heart, attention can be guided by the heart, which enables you to experience an experience with pure awareness instead of believing attention.

Thoughts of Awakening # 232

Who you think you are
is an obstacle,
because who you think you are
also includes a definition
of how you must be
if you are to be worthy,
and how circumstances must be
if you are to be happy.

Who you think you are
demands that you control
and that you be controlled.
There can be no freedom in this.

See who you think you are.
See the setup that this thought is.
Release the idea that limits and controls.
Accept unbounded freedom as truth.

Reminder: Shall We Dance? Replay hosted by Rev. Regina Dawn Akers

October 14, 2021

Rev. Regina Dawn Akers hosted the Movie Discussion Group for Shall We Dance in March 2020. Regina has requested that we revisit Shall We Dance by replaying the discussion followed by a new discussion.

Join us for the Shall We Dance
Replay
& Discussion on Sunday, October 24
7:30 pm ET: 2020 Audio Replay
8:30 pm ET: Group Discussion after the Replay

Shall We Dance is the movie Regina was guided to see the day she received her initial calling from Holy Spirit. Why would Holy Spirit send Regina to see this movie just as her path of following guidance was about to unfold? Join us for the replay of the  Movie Discussion Group and discover that answer for yourself.

Please plan to watch or rewatch the movie prior to joining us for the replay.

Use the Shall We Dance Playsheet to help you contemplate the movie.

Film Synopsis: John Clark is a man with a wonderful job, a charming wife and a loving family, who nevertheless feels that something is missing as he makes his way every day through the city. Each evening on his commute home, John sees a beautiful woman, staring with a lost expression through the window of a dance studio. Haunted by her gaze, John impulsively jumps off the train one night, and signs up for dance lessons, hoping to meet her. At first, it seems like a mistake. But, as his lessons continue, John falls in love with dancing. Keeping his new obsession from his family and co-workers, John feverishly trains for Chicago’s biggest dance competition.
