From the book "Gods About Us", Max Rempel
When you formulate a new goal for the present moment, you gain the possibility of being rid of those obstacles that hinder you both in the material and in the spiritual world. This concerns obsolete relationships with people, obsolete obligations, obsolete fears, the soul's traumas in the past, grievances, and even the memory of the past. That burden of the past which hinders change can and must be archived, consigned to the archive, parted with lovingly and delicately. Say to your memories: thank you for the inner experience I have acquired; I forgive everyone, I forgive myself first of all; now I choose to move on. I bless my old soul-traumas, my inner experience, and I put them away on the far shelf of my memory, into the archive! Into the archive!
The secret of youth is to carry within oneself no burden of old soul-traumas.
As a rule, what prevents a person from tuning to the wavelength of reception are old fears.
Thus in the coffee-shop example the unlucky people were afraid to communicate with the other patrons because in the past people had hurt them, and now the unlucky fear contact and regard people with suspicion. They do not believe that anything good can happen to them just like that. That is, "to each is given according to his faith."
Bashar teaches: the safest thing is to be always in motion, always changing.
A moving target is harder to hit. Note what the typical Jewish professions have in common. Cobbler, tailor, baker, jeweler, merchant, doctor, lawyer. The point is that for thousands of years the Jews had no state of their own and no land of their own, and so grew accustomed to moving on when cities and states expelled them. Therefore the typical Jewish professions are such that they allow one to pull up stakes at any moment. For safety lies in motion.
Thus it is easy to see that the obstacle to development in life and to the receiving of good fortune is, as a rule, old fears. Therefore, in using the law of attraction (of good fortune by thought), it is important not only to determine what you want and to tune yourself to the wavelength of reception, but also to reexamine, in detail, thoroughly, and constantly, your convictions, your limitations, and your relationships with the world, with things, with ideas and events. With definitions of what is good and what is bad. It is important to renounce old delusions, convictions that no longer bring benefit. This is a purely logical work of reassessing one's principles and predilections. No one holds us to our word. In choosing new goals, we must change and develop, and our predilections and preferences must change too. This is normal and right.
Obsolete, mistaken convictions only hinder spiritual development. This is most obvious in years of change - that is, in our time. Because now the world is changing most powerfully, and correspondingly the worldview of all humanity is changing. The worldview that worked for hundreds of years no longer corresponds to the renewed reality. Since our civilization is rising to a new level, a new worldview is required too. This book is on the whole intended to outline in general terms the structure of a new worldview and the paths of transition from the old worldview to the new. The new worldview is like a medicine that must be swallowed - it is the necessary medicine for survival and for recovery. This book is intended to grease and sweeten the pill. But each person must swallow the pill himself. That is, the inner work of rethinking old convictions, predilections, and principles each must do for himself.
Such a reevaluation of values took place in the time of perestroika, and now we stand on the threshold of, in the process of, a new perestroika, this time a global one, affecting above all the consciousness of all humanity - the understanding of global humanity as a single organism and mind. This is a perestroika not only of the global economy, but above all of our relationship to the spiritual world, a reunion with spirituality, a restoration of contact with our individual souls and the collective soul. This is a great and radical step, and the choice, as always, is ours - each one of ours - and it is also our collective decision, a collective manifestation of free will.
The ice has broken. Your move! Do not take yourself too seriously. Relax and try to get as much enjoyment as possible. Smile! Living is far easier playfully! Your move!
