Mummy Puppy

Akins was a good boy. Akins served his master for the entirety of Akin's life. Akins was a friend, a mentor, and family to his master. His master only saw Akins as a friend and loyal companion, but Akins had a couple gifts that was gifted by the gods at his birth. The first was not known by anyone, not even to Akin. The second gift was Akins ability to be aware of that within others that they themselves cannot see. Akin saw the King sitting in wait within the lowly peasant boy who he called master. Akin saw a true leader and a true King and Akins knew that his companion was a great master. Not a master such as an imprisoner or a dictator but a master of something greater. A master of something unknown to most, a master of something unperceived by the senses. A master of the unknown mystical arts. A Shaman in waiting and a Sorcerer in hiding. 

Akins spent every minute that he could by his master's side. Akins would always come running anytime the master was being attacked by a dark spell and shield him from the attack. Akins would attack his master with kisses in order to wash away all the darkness and let the mystical light shine out from his master's heart center. Akins was no match for all the dragons that would always seem to come around to attack his master, but he would never fail to kiss the cuts and bruises away. Akins never wavered in his conviction of his master's true identity. Akins only ever saw the King sitting on his thrown. 

The time had come for Akins, the same as it comes for all. Akins needed to enter the spirit realm, his job was done, he had served his purpose, or so he had thought. Akins never feared this day, Akins never thought about it. To Akins, leaving his body meant nothing, for Akins knew he was really just the spirit within. The body was simply for giving kisses and Love, that is all. Akins master was strong now, his master had finally seen who he is, he had finally seen the king within of himself. Akin had one last lesson to teach his master with his body as he was leaving it behind. Akins was so steadfast in his Love for his master that not even death of the body could keep him away from his master.

Akin's master didn't believe in the spirit world, Akins master thought that when the body died, that was the end. Lights out. Akins master didn't believe in the afterlife even though he had gone to the underworld and met Thoth. Akins master still didn't believe in the spirit world even after meeting Anubis twice. Akins master couldn't see that he was a great wizard of light and mystery even though he had an effect on everyone he came into contact with. Akins master didn't allow himself to believe because he Loved the body of Akins and he Loved all the kisses. Akins master thought he would miss Akins when he left his body behind. Akins master was with him when Akin slipped out of his body. Akins master couldn't let go, he didn't know how. Akins master begged and pleaded with the gods to let Akin stay.

Akins simply licked his master with his spirit body, and it was then that his master was able to let go of his physical body. Akins master cried for three days and three nights. Akins was mummified and placed into his master's tomb in wait for his master's body. Akins master could still feel Akin's kisses when he was being attacked by dark enchantments. Akins master could still feel Akin every night laying between his legs as he sleeps. Akin leaving his body taught his master that the body is just a seed into the spirit realm. Akins master told Akin to go explore the world and that he was fine without him, yet Akins refused. Even in death of the body, Akins still won't leave, loyal to his convictions through every transition of the spirit. 

Akins truly lived up to his first gift of which he wasn't even aware of. His first gift was his name which means Brave. Akins was brave in the face of attack. Akins was brave to see the King inside the peasant boy and to never back down in that conviction. Akins was brave in his passing into the spirit realm. Akins greatest gift was teaching his master to be brave. Little does Akin know that his master considers him the master.

How To Trust God

Question: 
I know I need to trust God, but I find it very difficult. I am the type of person that likes to have evidence and needs things to make sense logically in order to be able to understand them. I want to trust God, but I simply don't know how to. Can you please help me? How can I learn to trust God?

Answer:
In order to attain a full understanding of this question we need to break it down into smaller parts. How do you know you need to trust God? Is it a feeling inside of you of unknown origin or did someone tell you that you need to trust God? If it is because someone told you that you need to trust God, that may or may not be true to you. Don't believe anyone who tells you that you need to do something, no one can possibly know what path you are meant to take but for yourself. Hold on to what allows your peace to flow, let go of all that hinders your peace.

If it is a feeling inside of you of unknown origin, that is God's way of telling you that you are not trusting in God at the present moment. The feeling of doubt is there because you aren't trusting God. We see and feel what we are looking to see or feel. If we watch a scary movie, we look for fear and we find it. When we are trying to trust God, we see and feel doubt. The doubt is due to the concept we have created within our mind that says we are separate from God and can somehow be abandoned by God and therefore we don't Trust God. Since we see doubt, we see doubt's dualistic nature which is trying to trust God. We try to trust God because we doubt God, and we doubt God because we try to trust God. Bit of a catch 22.

Luckily there is a solution, the is an answer to how to trust God. It is very simple, at first it may not seem logical but if you allow yourself to meditate on the solution, you will see with all logic and wisdom that it makes sense and that it can and does work. The answer is to stop trying to trust God. You cannot trust God when you are trying to trust God, that is not logical in of itself. Think of a person you trust completely, could be past, present, or even fictional. Since you trust that person, you do not need to try to trust them. You just do. You trust someone because they have shown you time and time again that you can trust them. You have no reason to try to trust them, since they are always giving trust. Trusting God is the same thing. You already trust God, you just forgot which is ok, God having created us is very aware of our short-term memory.

God is constantly showing us that we can trust him, it is only when we are trying to trust God, we make invisible God's show of trustworthiness. Do not try to trust God, it is already there, you just forgot. Every time you try to trust God, you reinforce the belief that you don't. Next time you think or feel that you need to trust God, simply say to yourself (either quietly or our loud) 

 "I trust God, this is just a past belief working its way up and out of me. I need do nothing."

Get in the practice of doing that when you feel that need or urge arise. Commit to it and try your best, nothing more is ever needed than what your best is in any given moment. It will not take very long at all before you start seeing God pouring his trustworthiness down all around you and you will wonder how you could've ever thought that you didn't trust God. You will quite literally laugh out loud when you see the absurdity that we humans go through with our doubt. Peace and Love!

Change Your Present

In the discussion Change Your Past, we discussed how to use your present self in order to heal your past self, whether it be a trauma or simply a time when you weren't validated or didn't feel heard or understood. You can use the same method to change who you are now using your future self. Simply imagine yourself as who you want to be and already being that person in the future. Start acting as that future self would act when you become that future person. If you want to quit a habit or addiction, imagine your future self where you are free from that vice and act in a manner that is fitting with the future self who is free from whatever habit or vice you are trying to break.. It will take some time for the old habit to fall away as you create the new habit of your future self. 

Present you is too weak to be able to quit, which is why you haven't done it yet. Simply step into the role of your future self who is strong enough and use the energy that the future self gives you. Look at all the things present you has accomplished that past you never thought possible. Future you looks back at present while you never doubting and never questioning your ability and strength. It is the fact that the future self has the strength to not have that habit that proves present you has already quit.

This post is not to tell you to quit anything or change anything about yourself. You are perfect the way you are, and Thank You For Being You. This post is for those who think they need to change something about themselves. The journey that only goes in a circle that ends up right back where it began. Peace and Love!

Self-Validation

I feel ( *insert emotion* )

I don’t need to change this emotion or stop this emotion

I do not need to figure out where it came from or why it is here, that is not my job

I did not do anything wrong to cause this emotion

This emotion does not need to be fixed, therefor there is no one or no thing to blame

This emotion is healthy and normal

There is nothing wrong with me for feeling this emotion

This current emotion is here for a reason, and it will flow on its own when I am not in the way

Everything is ok

I need do nothing

Just Stop

I want to be happy, so I have to... just stop. My husband is cheating on me, so I have to... just stop. I'm all alone, so I could... just stop. I want to be rich, so I should invest... just stop. I'm depressed, so my Dr. says I have to... just stop. There are wars going on all over the world, so we should all... just stop. I want to be an enlightened being, so I have to... just stop. I just can't stand him, so I should... just stop. 

Are we getting the point? What exactly have you ever successfully accomplished in your entire life? Did you ask for the cancer to show up? Did you have any control over whether or not it was cured? Did you make your spouse cheat on you or did they do that on their own? Do you truly believe that working hard makes you rich? Rich people get rich by stepping on other people. Rich people get rich by being born into riches. Rich people get rich by luck. It's all a lie so you will keep working to make them richer.

Can you control the fact that you are alone right now? People just seem to randomly seem to show up in our lives whether we want them there or not. Did you grow your body at a molecular level from a baby to an adult or did that just happen naturally? When your depressed, does anything you do ever seem to help? Certain things help for a short time, like medication and exercise but the depression seems to decide when it comes and go, and we seem to be at its mercy.

What exactly can you do? What exactly is under your control? Nothing. You are a spirit watching the physical virtual reality of life play out. You are simply a character within the game of life who has gotten so deep into its character that you believe you are the character. We spend all of our time thinking about our character and how to make it better. How to make our character rich, smart, strong, popular, healthy, and so on. In truth the character isn't real, it is simply a character in the dream called life. Humans are in a collective dream of physical virtual reality.

Notice how you can feel pain, pleasure, fear, anger, joy, and Love in your night dreams when your character is recharging. The mind within the character creates the sensations as if they were real and you feel them as if they were happening and yet when you wake to your day, you find no harm had come upon you. The waking world is a collective dream where humans believe it to be their reality, too terrified to wake up from the dream, most can't or won't admit it is a dream. Humans fight their pretend wars in order to remain in the dream. Humans "take the lives" of themselves and others in order to prove the dream to be real. Death as humans know it, is simply waking up from the dream of physical reality. The dream of the character vanishes.

Humans create their own misery and suffering by trying to control the character that they have been assigned to watch by becoming identified with the character. Some humans realize they are in a dream and spend years attempting to wake the character up from the dream, not realizing they are still identified with the character. What can humans do? Just watch. Humans get to watch the movie of life play out. Humans have the choice (free will) to just watch the character and enjoy the show or become identified with the character and make a mess of themselves trying to do something. Humans know they can't reach into a television and become a character on the screen, yet they believe that they became the character on earth.

Earth is one of the most coveted places around by all beings. Earth is where spirit gets to go watch life play out in all its glory and majesty. Going from spirit to physical can be confusing and humans confuse themselves with the character in the movie. When spirit watches as life plays out instead of being identified with the character, life and everything in it becomes indescribable. Wars mean nothing, death has never existed, no one can do anything wrong, and when it's all over, we wake up to the spirit. Peace and Love!
