Session 18 - Expanding Oneself


Welcome to session 18

AIM: To expand the awareness of who we truly are

ACTION: Open up our mind to the possibility of a greater us by bringing into our awareness the choice of all that we are not.

Probably this is the first time for you to hear the concept "We are all that we are as much as we are all that we are not" Which gives birth to the statement: I AM THAT I AM.
However if we take the time to quiet our mind for just a moment and question this concept, we could find that in some strange way it makes sense in some part inside of us.

Parting from the Spiritual teachings that we are more that we are consciously aware of and the fact that at the beginning of this life we've chosen to forget who we truly are to be able to re-create a new experience from cero; It then becomes our call to search for all that we are in order to feel happy and complete... This is what is known as our basic right for liberty and the pursuit of happiness. However our mind as part of this relative dimension of birth and death does not accept this concept too easily hence our inability to see beyond the vail of illusion we call 'life'.
Nevertheless once our spirit is awaken and the need for something greater is so strong that we cannot hide from it anymore, we start our journey inwards to the final realization that we are so much more than just a body and that inside of each of us exists the opposite of everything we believe we are. We find the Ying-Yang of creation and by understanding this concept we expand our awareness of what we believe we are. Still though, only a tiny portion of all that we truly are.

EXERCISE:
Practice this exercise which consists in recognizing all that we believe we are NOT.

Step 1: make a list of words that you think described you best. Ask family and friends for an accurate description or if you run out of words ideas.

Step 2: Search the opposite for each of the words of your description. (google recommended)

Step 3: Say out-loud the newly found words starting with the statement: I AM. Repeat them until you feel them as part of you. Until the statement sounds truthful.

i.e.
My description: I am generous.
The opposite of generous = selfish & stingy
New statement: I AM SELFISH & STINGY

It may sound like a lie, like is not you.... no one likes to be told that we're selfish or stingy, however we're not making judgement of the statement as good or bad... we're only exercising the possibility of a bigger, greater you... If we can not see and accept our dark side we are simply condemned by our own conditionings and judgements to live only half our potential. This doesn't mean we are turning to the dark side and becoming evil. This means that we accept all our grandiosity as souls and equal part of God. Choosing to experience only light is our choice, but in the know that also we hold the secret for darkness.

In simple words this exercise will give us the ability to feel Compassion for all those who walk in darkness, all those who many call 'evil' will no longer be separate from us and therefore punished for their wrong doing. Instead we will embrace them and show them love, guidance and understanding. We will identify with everyone as ONE.

Once you can say out loud our new statement, accepting this NEW choice you will blessed by the possibility of expansion. This is a fact in the order of the Universe, however you will always have the right to choose.

Questions:
-Will you expand or will you contract?
-Will you learn to fly or will you stay behind?
-Now that you know, what would you do with this power?


Remember to enjoy the process

WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER, GUARANTEED!
