Coping With Change

 We are hearing from many people that their lives are at a crossroads, confusion and complexity with their core beliefs are being tested. Everything is up. How best to respond?

 Hilarion: Although, there are many approaches, obviously some way of simplification is helpful. One of the questions we have posed tonight, if it all worked out perfectly, if the relationship, the money, if the opportunity for things to give you more sense of peace could be found, how would that feel and to give yourself that experience by other means. By giving yourself a sense of peace or connection and then the deeper question: what do you want more than that? More than money? More than that relationship? That peace? As you answer this and look more deeply at it you may find that the answer is right there and that these things that show up in life are distracting but are not an essential core of your being. 

After all, the simple test, what do you take with you when you pass from this world? This can often be applied to these various things at the same time as this these things show up for one very specific purpose. They keep you in a state of interaction with other people and with other things in your life. Such may not be the best use of your energy, there may be other ways you can apply that energy to be in a state of deeper bliss, contact, communication, energy exchange healing or assistance with other people. But, at least those things will keep you somewhat in the loop, as the expression goes. But, as you get that and learn about it, you may begin to recognize that unconsciously the confusion which is to some extent self imposed. “I have to do this - if I don't I’ll...” you think about that for a while and you may even find those answers laughable.

Losing your house does not necessarily mean losing your life, losing your life does not necessarily mean losing your soul, losing your soul does not necessarily mean losing your contact with God. But, as you begin to play with those energies and step back from them, you may then begin to realize that a large portion of what keeps the confusion going, keeps the crisis attitude going, keeps the crossroad going which is the deeper underlying energy of the emotion itself; the fear, the desire to make it different; the unwillingness to accept it as it is. The way in which you can see that it is either peace or crossroads.

When you begin to understand that, you may begin to recognize that there is an answer to it. It comes at a very physical level in the very idea of what is created in the connection to other people and in the awareness of what is going on. Can you find pleasure? Can you find in the solutions to this, a sense in your own body of it being good, helpful, useful, lovable? Can you allow that love, that health for yourself even as you are working through these various problems?

Sometimes the opportunity to find a solution to a problem is only found if you let go of the problem. If you find deeper inside yourself a consciousness, an awareness, a love. This is not always easy to impose when the emotions are so engaged. So, sometimes it is necessary to release, not to shut down the emotions but to cry, to rage, to move the energy and then to find that place of peace, of stillness for a moment inside. 

As this is coupled with a sense of pleasure around solutions and ways in which you can see the energy helpful. As it moves through you to pay a bill, as it engages the consciousness of someone else in a relationship, as you work out the issues or understanding, as it connects you into various choices that you have. Then you begin to get things on track, because it is that emotion underneath it all. That is usually worked with unconsciously, but whether worked with consciously or unconsciously, it feeds those situations, repeatedly drawing aspects of distraction, difficulty, crisis, crossroads and complexity. 

Sometimes that is very helpful. It keeps you engaged, it keeps you from being bored. It keeps you from watching television or engaging in dangerous sports or doing drugs. But, many times, people are so addicted to that old way they don't even realize it. That is the unconscious part.

In addition to the attributes that we have mentioned today, in looking more consciously and deeply at what you really want us to look at is the emotion that you are feeding to these situations. See where this can be shifted by releasing the energies that are the difficult ones and finding instead the ones connected to the pleasure energy, the love energy, the helpful energy that is a part of the solution for the energies of the aspects of the money situation, the family situation, the relationship situation.
