Resistence is truly futile!

     It is amazing how resistant you can be without realizing it. Yesterday I woke up in a mood of anxiety, worry about the future, fear of failure to name a few of the emotions I was having thinking about my trip and there lies the problem. I was over thinking, analyzing and trying to force things to happen instead of allowing things to unfold. This was good though cause I was able to stand back and be the observer and not let the emotion overtake me. I used the Sedona Method to clear and let go of the negative emotions I was experiencing. After my mind felt clear and I was able to now let things flow to me and they did!

      I am planning to go to New York for the start of my journey. I left messages on several Rideshare boards intending to find a ride and to share gas expenses which would be roughly thirty dollars on a vehicle that gets decent gas mileage. I have also put in several Couchsurfing request for overnight stays with CS hosts. As of yesterday everything had turned flat. I was not finding a ride or a place to stay. I was getting frustrated and started to let emotion take over me until I decided not to let it! After clearing and letting go, my wife told me to check Greyhound. Now she told me to do this a few times before but I dismissed it because I was sure I would be getting a Rideshare ride. I checked Greyhound and lo and behold they had an amazing ticket price of fifteen dollars from Boston to NY! Allowing works great when you actually allow!

     I have had a problem with my phone charging which was stressing me a bit too. I believed it to be the charger not the battery. I looked into a new charger and it was thirty to forty dollars. I mentioned to a friend that I needed one and they said they would see if they still had one that would fit my phone. Lo and behold they did! So after letting go of my worry about the phone the universe provided freely.

     Time to get personal. I have been struggling financially all my life. Mostly because of beliefs inherited from my upbringing. Secondly I was more interested in the inner workings of life and understanding the whys of things. Why people behave the way they do? Why we are so destructive and loving at the same time? I grew a hatred towards money too because of the way it is used as a form of slavery and weaponry. I decided to let go of all my beliefs about money and just accept that it is only a form of abundance and exchange. I decided I would open myself up to all forms of abundance equally, not putting money on a higher plane then hospitality or service of any kind.

      Running low on food and food stamps being held up due to my wife's commission based employment, my wife ask me to check out the food pantry. I didn't resist and just went to check it out. I brought my youngest son Bray who is turning one this December. When I got there the people were very helpful and friendly and happy to interact with Bray. Due to the loving kindness we received four bags full of groceries, baby diapers, laundry soap and a fifty dollar gift card for even more food!

      You never know what can happen when you allow life to come to you instead of forcing your will upon it. Relax, intend and enjoy the experience! You'll live longer, happier and more prosperous!

You are a Creator

     You are a creator. Right now you are a creator in training or rather a creator that has forgotten itself in order to experience being creation instead of creator. The paradox is that you never can stop being a creator. You create your reality whether your conscious of it or not. You decided to forget in order in experience and slow down the process of creation, to be one with it, to know it from a walking in it's shoes perspective. To experience the known by becoming an unknown creation. All creation is new otherwise the word creation makes no sense. All that is infinitely possible exist in creation. Nothing exist outside of existence itself because there is no explanation or experience in nonexistence. Nonexistence has no experience and therefore cannot be explained. You can't explain nothing cause there is nothing to explain.

      That said everything that will, has and now exist, exist now and is eternal! All possibility exist now. If you exist now then you always will whether that be consciously or not. Now is the only real time. The more you can adjust yourself to the time of now the more you will actually be alive and truly living! When your mind is in the past or the future it is not in the now. If your not in the now your truly not awake and alive, no but your asleep or virtually dead. If your mind is on the future then that is where you are living and that has not happened yet and you have no way of knowing it's outcome or how you will get from here to there since you are not even here but trying to be there already. If your mind is in the past then that is where you are living and that has already happened and cannot be changed in the past but only in the present. The past and the future exist now. They can only be changed now. You cannot change the future in the future or the past in the past accept in your mind and being in the now.

Christ teachings of living now.

      Then he said to his disciples: “On this account I say to YOU, Quit being anxious about YOUR souls as to what YOU will eat or about YOUR bodies as to what YOU will wear. For the soul is worth more than food and the body than clothing. Mark well that the ravens neither sow seed nor reap, and they have neither barn nor storehouse, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more worth are YOU than birds? Who of YOU by being anxious can add a cubit to his life span? If, therefore, YOU cannot do the least thing, why be anxious about the remaining things? Mark well how the lilies grow; they neither toil nor spin; but I tell YOU, Not even Sol´o·mon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these. If, now, God thus clothes the vegetation in the field that today exists and tomorrow is cast into an oven, how much rather will he clothe YOU, YOU with little faith! So quit seeking what YOU might eat and what YOU might drink, and quit being in anxious suspense; for all these are the things the nations of the world are eagerly pursuing, but YOUR Father knows YOU need these things. Nevertheless, seek continually his kingdom, and these things will be added to YOU.

      “Keep on, then, seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these [other] things will be added to YOU.

     The Pharisees asked Jesus, `When will the kingdom of God come?' He answered them, `You cannot see the kingdom of God when it comes.
People will not be able to say, "Look, here it is!" or "There it is! That is because the kingdom of God is inside you.'


      Then he said to another: “Be my follower.” The man said: “Permit me first to leave and bury my father.” But he said to him: “Let the dead bury their dead, but you go away and declare abroad the kingdom of God.”  And still another said: “I will follow you, Lord; but first permit me to say good-bye to those in my household.”  Jesus said to him: “No man that has put his hand to a plow and looks at the things behind is well fitted for the kingdom of God.”

      By continually seeking the kingdom which is inside us all, that creative power to create our reality as we wish, we can gain the freedom of a fully conscious being. When you tap into that power completely there is no more pain, fear, distress or disturbance there is only love, joy, peace, contentment and excitement for life, you become alive, truly alive! All negative emotion is destructive to life, entropy. Positive emotion is life extending, expansive, eternal.

      Unlock your creative power by understanding who you are and why you are here. Learn to live in the now by clearing out all negative emotion connected to the past and future. By trusting in what is now presently going on in your reality and why it is there, for it is there to teach you about who you are and what you want to experience and learn here in physical reality. To be present is to be able to step back and observe yourself objectively and understand why you are experiencing life the way you do. To take total responsibility for your outside reality cause you created it from your inside reality through your thoughts and feelings. When you understand that you create everything you experience by attracting it to you through the vibration that you are projecting out then you will understand the real power you have to change it at will!

      As with anything it takes some effort and dedication. It does not have to be hard. It will only be as hard as you make it. It will depend on how much resistance your ego will put up. The more you let go and allow life to flow to you instead of chasing after it the more you will experience the true bliss of life itself.

Is working hard the only way to obtain money?

Slavery comes in many forms some so sly that most are not conscious enough to be aware of it even though it stares them in the face daily! How many times have you heard the phrase "Just work hard and you will get what you want in life" or Just work hard and       fill in the blank. Why is everything so hard? Is there not people that go through life with relatively no stress and live care free? Oh yeah we are not supposed to like those people who have their act together and whom life has falling into alignment for them. I forgot we are suppose to be jealous and resentful of them and waste our vital energy stewing over it while we work hard.

There are plenty of people in this world who don't work hard and have plenty of money. The belief that I must work hard for money is complete bologna. I have been working hard trying to making money all my life giving my energy to the pursuit of that which gives no happiness! I have finally decided to let all my beliefs about money go. Money is nothing but a resource which people have put way to much emphasis on which in turn has brought about much pain.

Nothing in itself is bad, only that which is attached to it by belief, thought and feeling in other words consciousness. A knife can be used to butter bread or to kill depending on the wielder of it. The knife itself is nothing until consciousness is put into it. At that point it becomes alive, a useful tool in which to do good or evil. Money is no different.

Because of the twisted emphasis on money we cannot fix this economy even though we are the economy! People are the economy! People have let corporations and government take it over for their own greedy wants while we work hard for little to nothing in return. We can take it back by finding ways of exchange and helping each other without money as money is corrupted by bad conscious input or change the way we think and feel about money so it will be a positive resource for all not just a few.

The belief that you must work hard for money is a fallacy. There are plenty of people who work a lot but enjoy what they are doing so it does not seem like hard work to them. Hard work usually means it is something you have to do to pay your bills and survive. Yeah that is called slavery. Economic slavery to be exact! The only reason you believe you must work hard for money is because you believe you must work hard for money. Have the belief that you don't have to work hard for money and you won't! I am not saying it is easy to change that belief but you can change it! How? By not believing it! Trust in yourself and your ability to find enjoyable work that does not feel like slavery and you will find it.

If you trust in the belief that money only comes through hard work then that is exactly what you will experience. I know I have experienced it a lot! I choose now not to experience it anymore but to believe in myself and my ability to bring into manifestation money without slavery. Not only money but ALL abundance! Please stay tuned to this blog as I go on my journey and put these things to the test. Live the experience with me. See it work!

One dollar donation

I received my first donated dollar from a friend of a friend who I was visiting with this week. This person is an alcoholic that is fighting to get his life back together. He realizes that he is the cause of his own problems and desires to change. Alcoholism is a tough battle for those who struggle with it. I have several friends and acquaintances that contend with this addiction.

When I told him about my journey and the purpose of it he reached in his pocket and gave me the only dollar he had to his name. He insisted I take it and I gladly accepted it! I said that I would not spend this dollar but keep it with me as a good luck charm knowing that he appreciated what I was doing and gave all that he had. To me this is a valuable contribution because of the spirit behind the giving. I know he will conquer his alcoholism. He is a very smart guy, a gifted mechanic and has many talents. Many blessings to him!

Dealing with Emotions

     I am going to really put myself out there during this trip and NOW as I prepare for my journey. I have been feeling real upbeat and positive about things until today. Today the pain body is having it's way a bit, not completely cause I am standing back as the observer and watching how it unfolds and builds to a crescendo trying to take over me.  

     Eckhart Tolle's book The Power of Now is such a great book! If you have not read it I highly suggest it! I will be discussing it quite a bit throughout this blog. When I talk about the pain body I am referring to his concept which in the simplest terms means that all our emotional pain becomes a entity in itself trying to possess us and drain our energy. Any negative emotion is energy draining and can be felt in the body. The key to having control is to become a observer of the emotion you are experiencing thus separating yourself from it because ultimately it is not you. It is only an experience you are having and since it is only a experience then you have the power to disconnect from it. 


     The problem we have is we believe our emotions are us! So they take control of us instead of us taking control of them. Remember, you are in charge! You can choose to be in any emotional state that you wish. I am sure that you would choose love, joy, happiness or any positive emotion over any negative IF you could control your emotional state and become king over your own kingdom within you. There are several processes and methods I will be using to accomplish this during my journey. 


     Three things that I noticed already that work well is believing that you are not your emotion but that your emotion is just an indicator of how far or how close you are to your true self. Your true self is peaceful, blissful, content and in complete control. There is no fear in love as they say so fear would be the furthest from your true self that one could get. All negative emotion is pain and suffering, mentally, emotionally and physically in the body as sickness, disease and finally death. None of these things exist in love. 


     They say God is love. I say God is existence itself and that God chooses to be love cause love IS the best feeling that IS. Thus God chooses to be only love. If you don't believe in a almighty God that is okay too since you will still choose love over any other emotion cause that is what every living things strives to obtain in completeness. Even the most evilest being strives for it. It chooses the darkness to discover the light cause life is light and light is love and there is no escaping it! The darkness has no chance!


     Back to my emotional state today. I have been feeling anxiety today caused by my outside reality that I haven't quite let go of yet while I am cleansing my inside reality. As Christ said "Cleanse first the inside of the cup then the outside will also become clean". It is easy to do that which we are use to doing. The repetitive patterns of the past that keep knocking on the door saying "don't forget about me"! Feelings of lack, unworthiness, failure, frustration and anger etc. I feel like taking out my mighty sword of the spirit and slaying them all! But that would be exactly what they want. They want to stir up negative energy. Instead I will give them none of it! I will observe and laugh as I watch the circus show knowing it is not me, no now I am in control!

     Just writing this gives me tremendous power to transform all these negative emotions in to positive power. I become the black hole that consumes all negative energy only to produce positive life on the other side. A black hole consumes only that which is no longer useful, negative and destructive to life. Otherwise it would let it be. It is the recycle bin of life.  I'm talking metaphorically not scientifically. 


     The best thing you can doing when in a negative state of mind is take action! Become the observer and disconnect from the emotion in anyway you can. Then try letting go of the emotion using the Sedona Method. Then use Ho'oponopono to heal from the experience. The Ho'oponopono mantra is "I love you, I'm sorry, forgive me, thank you. My own assessment of these phrases is that I love you means just that. You are saying that you love yourself and the thing or person that brought about the experience, thus showing love and projecting love upon you and the whole experience. I'm sorry means that you apologize for the negative experience YOU created. Forgive me means that you ask to be forgiving for creating such a negative experience. You give yourself permission to be forgiven. Thank you means you are grateful for the experience and that you learned much by it. All this is a process of letting go and forgiving yourself for creating such negativity. I found that persistent use of this concept has helped me to stay in control by allowing, forgiving, loving and appreciating all that life brings. 

     How powerful is Ho'oponopono? Dr Ihaleakala Hew Len healed a whole ward of seriously mentally ill people with absolutely no contact with the patients. All he did was look at their files and while repeating over and over again the Ho'oponopono mantra until they were all healed and walked out of the hospital own their own accord!


     Until tomorrow -I LOVE YOU-I AM SORRY-FORGIVE ME-THANK YOU!

Forward

     I am embarking on a unique adventure called The Journey of Trust. The journey is about trusting your intention and intuition, knowing it to be so, not doubting and seeing the results and consequences. We are all at this moment trusting in something to be true according to are beliefs and definitions of those beliefs. You have probably heard of the Law of Attraction. If you haven't no worries cause it has always been around, it has been explained by masters such as Buddha and Christ. Christ said the measure you measure out will come back to you. Actually he even said it would be more than what you have given out. The law is simply. What you project from your inside (your mind & heart) by thought and feeling, you will receive back though your outside reality. Physical reality is a mirror of who you are projecting to be.

     My trip will have a threefold purpose. One will be to prove that the law of attraction is true by trusting in what I am putting out from my mind and heart knowing that it is a universal law that cannot be broken. You cannot look into a mirror with a frown and expect back a smile. You must first smile then the mirror will smile back. Your reality is no different. Based on this anyone who donates to my journey will receive back three times or more what they gave to help me accomplish my journey. 

     The second is to clear myself of all negative thoughts and emotions that could hinder me in my journey. By doing so I will have pure intent and as my journey goes on I will only gain in personal strength and power. I'll be using two methods of clearing. The Sedona Method which was created by Lester Levenson. A man on his death bed who came back to a full, happy, healthy life after using a process to clear his mind of all negative thought and emotion. The second method I'll be using is called Ho'oponopono a Hawaiian practice of healing. I'll be using and explaining these methods throughout my journey. You'll get to see the results first hand.

     The third is to be free in every way. Financially, emotionally, spiritually and any another way or experience you can think of.

     My journey will start December first and will last for a minimum of three months. I will be doing a daily blog with pictures, video and writing about my experience. This will become a book when I am done but it will be free to read online until my journey is over. Anyone who donates to my journey will be mentioned on my site or may received advertising as an exchange for services. I ACCEPT ALL FORMS OF DONATION! It does not have to be money. You can provide me with a meal, a place to stay, or anything that will help me to reach my destination and goals. There will be a PayPal button on the site for monetary donations.

     There is nothing greater than self discovery. There is no better feeling in existence then to know and understand existence itself. It is a freedom that nobody can describe, it is one that each must discover on their own by examining themselves and understanding themselves. Stay tuned this should get interesting!

Peace and Blessings!
Charles

Doubting

     I am going to talk about doubt as the first emotion that needs to be eradicated from my brain! We love to self sabotage, doubting ourselves, doubting others and simply doubting the natural process of life. Doubt will be one obstacle that will pop up it's ugly little head every time you believe in something new. Whether that be in a goal you are trying to accomplish or a feeling your trying to over come your persistent negative thoughts will always arise when they are threatened. If you are trying to believe in a new concept the old concept does not want to be forgotten so it fights for it's life and right to be. It will lie to you and make you believe that IT IS YOU that it is part of who you are and therefore cannot get rid of it. It will try to convince you that you cannot live without it.

     Well how do you fight such resistance to change? You don't! You must accept that feeling for what it is, just a feeling. It is not you. No feeling is you, it is only a experience you are having. You are simply existence itself and existence can choose to experience anything it wishes. It is the zero point of being. The IAM. When you say I am this or that then you are saying that you are that thing or this thing.You are identifying your being with that thing. If you say I am sick. Then you are saying that you are sickness. You are identifying sickness as who you are but it is not who you are. Nothing outside of you ( you as in your beingness) is you. You only choose to identify yourself by these things outside of you. If you do not like what you are identifying yourself with then you can choose to identify yourself by something else or nothing at all.

Change is a process that takes dedication to the process. Everything you experience is a result of your thinking and feeling. A thought has absolutely no power unless it is fueled by emotion. When there is no emotional attachment the thought fades away. Thus the process for changing your life is to be aware of your emotional state and to be aware of the thought that is attached to the emotional state. If you are feeling angry then ask your self why am I feeling angry. Asking this question helps to bring up the thoughts that lead to the feeling. There may be several thoughts tied together that brought about the feeling of anger. You must address and bring up each one connected with the emotion of anger you are having presently. I say presently because you want ONLY to work on emotion that you are now feeling.

     We want to stay in the present. We don't want to go to the past or the future. If the feeling is connected with the past then accept that fact but deal with it in the present. Cause there is only the present moment. If you are thinking about the past then you are not in the present. Same if you are thinking of the future. If you are in the past or the future with your thoughts and feelings then you are not living. You are dead to the moment. Only what you are thinking, feeling, doing right now matters cause there is only now. If you are not living now then you are truly dead.

     There is no difference between the zombies of horror movies and those who live in the past and future. They are both the living dead. They look alive but really they are dead. They keeping search for brains to feed there lack of being. The reason they have no brains is cause they are stuck in the past or the future and thus have no brains in the now.

     I often think of the seemingly harsh words of Christ and their meaning. Christ asked a man to follow him and the man replied that he needed to first bury his Father then he would follow him. Christ said to him "Let the dead bury the dead." The typical reaction to this is disbelief in these very words. They cannot believe Christ as a loving man would be so harsh as to not allow this man the time to bury his Father properly before following him but when you understand it from a higher level you can understand why he said such seemingly harsh words.

Christ was present and he was not going to be there forever anyone who was to follow him had to act NOW! His father was already dead and there was nothing he could do to change that. The people at his funeral will all be mourning and grieving thus living in the past and maybe even thinking of the future when there would see the person again. The whole process is not one of the present moment. Anyone who was to follow the Christ has to be in the now cause that is where he dwells. All Masters live in the now present moment cause they no that is all there is. Time and space is only a experience we are having in this 3D reality. The only way to free yourself and become enlightened is to live in the now.

     There are several methods that can help you to live in the now. I will be using several different ones in my journey and sharing my experiences with all you who are tuning in to my journey. I'll be leaving in 16 days. I thnak you for all your generous donations! A place to stay for the night, a meal and a shower, a ride somewhere, a pleasant, enjoyable, conversation, money and more.

     I guarantee that whatever you give you will receive back threefold or more!

Blessings to you!
Charles
