Going Through The Opening

August 28, 2009Going through the OpeningContracting before ExpandingSometimes our lives contract before they expand. We may be working hard on ourselves spiritually, doing good in the world, following our dreams, and wondering why we are still facing constrictions of all kinds—financial, emotional, physical. Perhaps we even feel as if we’ve lost our spirituality and are stuck in a dark room with no windows. We may be confused and discouraged by what appears to be a lack of progress. But sometimes this is the way things work. Like a caterpillar that confines itself to a tiny cocoon before it grows wings and flies, we are experiencing the darkness before the dawn.When things feel tight, it’s easy to panic or want to act in some way to ease the feeling of constriction. We might also spin our wheels mentally, trying to understand why things are the way they are. However, there is nothing we need to do at this time other than to be patient and persevering. We can cling to the awareness that we are processing the shift from one stage to another, and the more we surrender to the experience, the more quickly we will move through the tightness into the opening on the other side. Just like a baby making its way down the birth canal, we may feel squeezed and pushed and very uncomfortable, but if we remember that we are on our way to being born into a new reality, we will find the strength to carry on.Even as we endure the contractions, we can find peace within ourselves if we remember to trust the universe. We can look to the natural world for inspiration as we see that all beings surrender to the process of being born. In that surrender, and in the center of our own hearts, is a willingness to trust in the unknown as we make our way through the opening.The Daily Om

"Since Vlada seems to trust the medical orthodoxy so much I wonder how many mRNA shots he took...?? It certainly tolls on him...And maybe the assumption that not only ourselves, here, but even the medical specialists, (such as Professor Robert…"

"Well, as we already know, with regards so many matters of public interest, officialdom rarely shares any good news with us...and that applies to all nations, as it's in the nature of a limited consciousness, in office, to suppress any liberating…"

"Ok Vlada, you beg to differ with what we know to be true.. Great that’s up to you. What an achievement.

More importantly, AE was right and the more people that knew about this coverup, the more lives that could have been saved.."

"No, I did not say that at all Vlada, so at least get it right before you shoot accusations. You’ve confused me with another comment:
Drekx said: ‘I hope you value the health of clients..??’"
