The way I see it... I'm right and your wrong

My way is the only way

The concept of Triumphalism has gotten me meditating a lot on the power of connection and understanding for one another, even if we don't agree. If you are unfamiliar with the term, click on the link above to see Wikipedia's definition. Basically, it means someone thinks the way they worship and believe is the only right way and should triumph over all others. This could hold true for Nationalists as well. Basically, you are putting yourself and your group ahead of everyone else in importance.

I often see my clients having a strong need to believe in just one thing and assign their attention to one direction. Without this, they may feel like they are floundering or aimless in their pursuits. But in my work, no matter where you are at, what you believe in, or how you go about celebrating your spirituality is your business. I work with where you are at, without judgment (as often as humanly possible.) As I teach in my energy awareness class, neutrality as an act of presence is key to accessing that higher self and dimensions.

Your access to that higher self is yours and your alone. You may get together in a church and agree on some fundamentals, but what that person next to you actually thinks and believes, is very unique to them and all about their relationship with themself.

Some may consider this way of thinking a bit flimsy in morality or dedication. But on the contrary, you can be even more dedicated to your own connection and self-worth. You can be very dedicated to helping others find their connection and self-worth, in their own way. Feeling supported by something bigger than yourself is very important to feeling capable of living a life feeling fulfilled. The Light Council Project has been making it very clear that the more you know yourself, the more you can know the divine and the divine in others.

"I am good only because you are bad."

Whatever you believe about yourself and others, will always turn out to be true. Choose those thoughts wisely.

Sometimes when I see people judge another, I see they are doing it out of a place of self rejection. They are trying to prove to themselves their own worth or that what they are doing is good. They look around for validation of what they believe or were told to believe and alienate themselves from all other concepts. This allows them to diminish their internal doubt and quiet that “are you sure you are right?” question in their mind.

The Casts in Your Play

Spend a minute contemplating with me. Are you competing with someone or something else for importance? Are you running around saying "I am better than you?” Everyone around you is a mirror to your frequency. Sometimes we have too much support to stay stuck and our stories get reinforced in our minds. Sometimes there is someone asking you to think differently. Someone challenging you to reflect on your own values and life and to possibly do things differently. Everyone around you plays a role in how you are manifesting your beliefs and your life.

Notice where you are victimizing yourself because other people don't believe in what you believe in and "gosh darn it, they should!" Notice where you are leaking your power to the people around you who don’t agree to shape the world the way you think they should.

Don’t be Diminished by Those Around

Start by not diminishing others around you. Even if they are engaging in shame, blame, and judgment as a way to motivate you to do the same, don’t play. Go beyond those techniques of manipulation and control and start lifting yourself and others up.

If you struggle to do this, that is okay. Start somewhere. Notice that just setting the intention to drop the need to be right all of the time, shifts your relationships and your life.
