Constriction vs Expansion of our intuition/guidance system

Spiritual & Metaphysical Matters
1

I’ve been telling everyone willing to hear that the best we can do is listen to our guidance system, which mostly communicates with us via our sense of intuition.

I believe here we all are aware of the effectiveness of following our intuition.

I was pondering this with more depth and it occurred to me that our intuition can only work within the confines of whatever beliefs we have already bought into. Simply because we are sovereign and our free will is paramount to our guidance.

So for instance, we can easily constrict our intuition very much if we integrate enough fear-based information into our own personal framework. Enough of this might even make it so that our guidance can no longer share our inner Truth with us. There is no space, framework or semantic left for it to operate within and manifest acceptable pointers towards our Truth.

This could mean that preliminary work might be needed in some cases before our intuition has the space required to truly guide us properly.

From this, an advice emerges. We would do well from time to time to take some time to revisit all the greater aspects of what we believe to be true and seek the root of each belief, then observe if it had come from a less than loving perspective/message. Where we feel that might be the case, then explore if there are alternative (more loving) perspectives being offered. Maybe even choose to create our own.

I know that for myself, this is painful work. To release what I had bought into which might not have been based on the most loving choice/perspective. It feels like losing a part of ourselves. Yet this is how we truly create new opportunities for self-evolution.

Thank you for allowing me to bring this into awareness. I felt it was worthwhile to do so at this time.

Please, give precise single real world example which would illustrate guidance system, intuition, belief, sovereignty, free will, personal framework and how they interplay and leads to your conclusion about painful work.

Currently, without an example this is empty-labels for those who are not familiar with the concepts and usable only for those who know the concepts you use.

Thank you.

Preface: All of the following is my opinion only and are in big parts generalizations. Also, most of my current opinions/beliefs are based on Confederation philosophy. I am very much pray to what this thread is talking about. In other words, I am constricted by my current beliefs. Nonetheless, here we go. :slight_smile:

We are born into this world with a mostly clean slate. We do not remember previous experiences, where we are, why we are here or what here is.

We then begin to be exposed to stimuli/catalysts that assails our senses. We are offered the beliefs of our parents, teachers, society, etc… From those viewpoints we will be choosing what to include as parts of our own personal beliefs.

Some viewpoints/beliefs comes attached with constrictions that will restrict the new beliefs that we will allow ourselves to chose from if we ever become aware of the existence of those alternate viewpoints that goes against these constrictions.

A segment of those constricted viewpoints are what could be termed fear-based material/message/information. Integrating such beliefs would prevent us from integrating a point of view that resides within that spectrum of fear we integrated.

The helpers that are with us while incarnated: the Infinite Creator, our personal guides, our higher self, etc. That part of us will not speak to us from a point a view that we fear or use concepts that we clearly rejected.

In the Law of One, sovereignty is de facto since it comes from there being no one else to share power with. We create our own story.

Now, we can try to dabble in real world examples.

An example of a fear-based belief is what I have called the prison hypothesis. It is a point of view offered to explain reincarnation. Where the Earth is a prison which is set up to forever enforce souls to reincarnate.

This is a popular belief at the moment. Integrating this belief will make us forego the point of view where the Earth is a school for example. Or the viewpoint of Earth being a game that joyful souls choose to play knowing exactly what they are getting into before every incarnation.

Let’s assume that our core Truth is that we are always free and nothing can ever imprison the whole soul since at some level our agreement is needed for any type of imprisonment we could experience. This is not compatible with the soul trap/prison hypothesis.

How would our guidance system point us towards this Truth while we are holding on the belief of the soul trap? They have not much wiggle room by respect for our free will.

I think that the experience of Christian Sundberg which he generously shares with us can be used as basis for more discussions on this subject.

I love this and thank you for putting a fine point on it. It’s certainly useful advice you’ve given me in the past and it makes complete sense. If serving and evolving relies solely on our conscious assets, we are really screwed. For me, channeling is a formal way of relating to deeper resources, but I think we need to discover less exotic, more everyday ways of doing this.

There’s some astrological dynamic of introversion vs. extroversion or introverts vs. extroverts. Introverts might be introspective, and extroverts might be outrospective, if that’s a word. I think as it goes, if there’s planets sprinkled around the birth chart, upper semicircle placements might promote extroversion and lower semicircle placements may promote introversion.

Anyhow, as a person grows to accept themselves to just be as they are, then sometimes the patterns in these charts sometimes reflect character traits, like introversion and extroversion. Of course an introvert can act like and extrovert, or vice versus - but it take more work to be something you’re not than to simply be who you are. In other words, there may generally be no recipes that work for everyone, but infinite recipes that work well for infinite creators.

Yes, it can be quite shallow or quite deep, same as how we may engage with “real life.”

Maybe. How do you view everyday catalyst? Do you allow it to take you beyond your beliefs or not? It often happens to me, for one, that either internal or external catalyst takes me beyond the bounds of the beliefs of my personal understanding and beliefs. Myself, I don’t find that odd.

I could try to look it up if you would like, but I recall Confederation sources saying that our inner guidance, because it is part of us, does not have the same restrictions that an extrinsic entity has in terms of free will concerns.

One can certainly take that route, but I wonder if specific beliefs–generally speaking–are the real limiting factor. As Ra says, it comes down to identity, and I would suggest that how one experiences identity is a more central matter. Just my reflection.

4.20 Ra: I am Ra. The Law of One, though beyond the limitations of name, as you call vibratory sound complexes, may be approximated by stating that all things are one, that there is no polarity, no right or wrong, no disharmony, but only identity. All is one, and that one is love/light, light/love, the Infinite Creator.

Of deeper interest, perhaps, is the deeper identity.

54.15 Ra: […] Each energy may be activated without the beauty that is possible through the disciplines and appreciations of personal energies or what you might call the deeper personality or soul identity.

Just life happening to us basically.

Sure, if you mean that slap in the face that we sometimes provide ourselves?

One form we hear about are NDEs. Those self are just not the same after their NDE.

I guess this highlights that the whole self, if it really wishes, can shake up the beliefs of the little self.

I am not quite seeing the difference in between our identity and our beliefs. But I’ll certainly explore this. It sounds like a fruitful path to trod.

Are NDEs then the identity reasserting itself with that beliefs shake-up?

One of the main points about identity is that we all receive input from the physical senses, from our emotions, thoughts, from a 1st chakra sensibility, 2nd, 3rd and so forth, but how do we assign importance to these various streams of information? That is, which ones do we identify with most closely? With survival? With our mental constructs? With the wisdom of our our heart?

People who have an NDE, as you say, very often come back and restructure what they value or identify with or put forward as most important in their lives. That is kind of the process spiritual evolution, right? We begin 3D by identifying with our illusion-oriented needs and end it by identifying with our need to work with 4D light and love. Our identity shifts from someone to whom life happens to someone who is keen to share Divine Love.

All of that still sounds to me like our identity is our current set of beliefs. I guess that this particular identity is the identity of the character we are playing here.

And the identity you are speaking of is the one that you quoted. The soul identity or the deeper personality.

Or is there no real difference in between these types of identity in your opinion? Because if there is no difference, then of course my first posts in this thread no longer holds water. :slight_smile:

On that front, I have been pondering whether we bring back some forms of beliefs after an incarnation. That might shed some light on how STS can remain STS even when no longer veiled.

Uh, yeah, sort of. It’s about how much of our experience we take in and own up to. The quality of our honesty determines the scope of what we allow ourselves to believe.

From what I’ve read, the inner self is something that is created by the personality and the soul as both grow together. The personality opens to and grows into spiritual awareness, and the soul learns to move into 3D to be of service.

My understanding there is that, to them, STS just seems like the most sensible approach to the challenges of Creation. It seems more efficient, given their skill set. What they experience on either side of the veil tends to confirm their bias.
