Spiritual Development

Dr. of Spiritual Development Course Essay
By Jason Stone

 I sort of have a knack for being in the right place at the right time when it comes to meeting someone in need, spiritually that is. Several of those times although I knew in my heart what I wanted to tell that person, there seemed to be a wall between my heart and my mouth and I just couldn’t seem to find the right words.  This course helped me tremendously find what I was missing.

 This course hit the proverbial nail on the head with the section on Clarity and my personal favorite was the section about the “Power of Now”. The power of now was very insightful to me. Being pagan I have been involved in many different meditation courses, read many different mind quieting books, and done several “shielding” techniques which are really nothing than blocking yourself from all negativity, all frantic thoughts, or one may say finding clarity and finding the power of now.  I work a very stressful job as a Security Officer in a School. Many times I come up on stressful events where I have put myself in the power of now and found clarity without even knowing that is what I was really doing. The power of now is so obviously true. I mean after all you can’t change the past, and you can’t see the future so the only thing you can really address is the present, so why not give every drop of attention you have to it. I very much enjoyed this course. I am looking forward to continuing my education through the ULC. Thank you to all.

Lesson 16 Past Life Regression Revision

1) Do some of your own research and:

a) List the benefits of Past Life Regression
(13)
  • Clearing of karmic debt.
  • Relieve repressed emotions, past hurts and trauma, and to be able to change your reaction to these past circumstances by being able to view them from a safe place where a larger pattern or lesson may become clear.
  • Recognition of and integration of blocked memories and emotions into present life circumstance.
  • Integration the Higher and Lower Selves.
  • Ignite a sense of personal responsibility created by your core values.
  • Recognition of latent or innate talents and core personal beliefs.
  • Reveal the meaning and purpose of present life
  • Develop power, control, choice, confidence in our actions.
  • Develop a sense of focus, concentration, and visualization.
  • Control or eliminate and understand the basis for personal and cultural pain, guilt, anxiety, fears and stress.
  • Gain more control and understanding of your present life circumstance
  • Understanding the actions of those who are close to you or who are acquaintances from a larger perspective and/or pattern
  • Recognizing your illness patterns and life choices more clearly and perhaps earlier in the process.
  • Become beings of action rather than reaction.


B) What are the dangers associated with Past Life Regression?
(9)
  • The client could release suppressed emotions while the he or she does not, yet, have the necessary tools to deal with the emotions.
  • They may be horrified to find out what kind of evil deeds they performed in previous life or they may prefer to become the person they were in a previous life and never fully integrate past with present in a real way.
  • They may be horrified to find out what kind of evil deeds they performed in previous life or they may prefer to become the person they were in a previous life and never fully integrate past with present in a real way.
  • The person could be thrown into a “spiritual emergency” or feelings of “loosing their reality” when dormant psychic powers become activated overnight or when the client realizes innate powers that have been with them since they were born.
  • The Client, if not properly cleared, grounded, and shut down, after a regression could have their energy system and emotional body bogged down and blocked by the experiences of their regression.
  • People with mental illness could become further unbalanced.
  • If the person has more than enough in the way of current problems, there is no point in going back to look for more.
  • If there is a history of mental illness in the family that is lying dormant, it could become activated after being regressed.
  • People with a history of heart disease or stroke, should not be regressed.

Spirit Quest

Greetings!

I used to use affirmations every day, especially in more difficult times in my life. At first, I really wondered if the affirmations were of any value at all: it seemed almost "silly". But then, almost imperceptibly, I began to look forward to the affirmations and I found that slowly but surely, they were manifesting themselves in my life - I began to believe them! Moreover, the affirmations made me feel good physically and good about myself.

Affirmations are a powerful tool to use in everyday life. Often times, especially in the mundane, work-a-day world, we find ourselves under-appreciated or invalidated by those around us. Affirmations allow us to feel good from the person that really matters most in this case - ourselves!

For those who are skeptical - try it and give it time. Believe and be amazed - you can be even more than you are today! :)

Yours in the Way,

JP

Metaphysics

Universal Life Church
Setting Spiritual Goal's

Moving in and out of love that is something we as human's need to work on, it's not impossible that we can fix any problem even this. People in that time of life has to turn to God for his leadership and guidance. Now one of my goals has come to be and that is to do a funeral for a friend who was a young man 37 years old in body in mind maybe 5 at best, I thought that I couldn't do it but, we can do anything through Christ if we only trust and believe in his teaching. Now that brings me to the thing at hand which is my word. To me a man is only as good as his word and that was the way it was before I am talking about years past. Now today there is too much going the wrong way and seems like no one care's anymore or is it just me that feels that way?

Forgiveness

What if we can't forgive others do we think that God should forgive us any way. I don't believe it works like that with God in his word, and his guidance, for us and forgiveness is for the one that is asking as it should be for the one he is asking to forgiveness. That is to say Christ is forgiveness so are we better than him? I think not. Let us be more like Christ and less like the world we are in, but we shouldn't be part of that world.

Grounding and center of the Head

This is a funny thing to be doing, but it does work if we learn to just think about what we are doing and why we are doing it. To think is a short word for meditation, but simple people like me have simple minds that is me. Now I would say that I have learn a lot from the few lesson's than I thought I would so that make's me one step closer to my main goal that is to be a help to my pastor, my friend and my brother and maybe not in that order. Now for the grounding part we could and do have a lot of fun with it, but that is how I think it should be.

I have made a few changes in this time and some are good for helping me learn that when we start to feel the thing's our world puts in our way. We can stop and go to that chair in the middle of that room at any time and any place if or when we need to. I know that it work's real good. When I go to that chair to meditate or as I said before to think about any problem like the way our country has been and still doing to us. This thing with the oil today, I think we need to meditate on this and see if we can help and what has happened to our country this is my thoughts.

Meditation Golden Sun

I have a shop that I clean all the time, but it stays in a mess and I don't let it make my day a mess I agree that all Neutral Energy and Positive Energy comes from God and Negative Energy from the world as this lesson say's. The world as we know it now is different than it was when I was small as I grew so did my small town, now it is not a small town any more. I can only hope that it grows spiritually and not bringing the crime like the bigger town. I spend more time trying to get the thing's as it was when I was small out of the way and try to grow as my small town grows I stop to look back at some of the things that was growing some are not good for us I hope that we know the difference I pray that it gets better and we know our country would come back to God before it is too late. Now the energy that I replaced is the negative energy with positive energy and not just that I put my faith in my Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST, if right or wrong can't help that. One thing that I have not used as to now, but this is something that I need to say if you have a problem you can't fix, give it to the Lord. He is the one that made us, so how can he not be the better to fix us that is my question? The protection rose is a way of getting rid of negative thing that are not good for us, but if these thing aren't faced it can make a mess of one's life. We need to take care of that problem as soon as possible. Now to neglect anything that can become a problem is a good way of letting it become a down fall to us. The protection rose is also a good way of getting it taken care of by getting rid of negativity is to create a rose of protection and take it and blow it up.  If you need to create as many as you need. I get more out of mine though by using this Rose of Protection and my Meditation. I know that to think about something to a point of knowing how to make it work. Now to make it to strengthen the effectiveness of our tool's by imagining large amounts of details. Using the mind's eye or the third person wouldn't that be about the something? Give yourself time to think about the other's that is in the center of your head then you can invite them to leave.

Good people create good thing's creating is about bring new thing's into the world that was not there before. Creating is good. Women create babies, women create and that is a good thing. Destroying has a negative concept to it. Hurricanes destroy, tornadoes destroy. Destroying is as needed to life as creating is, what if there was no destruction? What would the world look like I can't imagine what house's would be like if we create and not destroy? On the positive side nobody would ever get divorced. If you want to buy new clothes you have to make room in your closet for them or in time space would go away, get the picture? Creating and destroying something can do two thing. First thing it does is to bring what you have created into present time. This means that as we become more capable we are bringing our tool's with us. Second thing that creating and destroying does is to move energy. The last time you were angry and you could not let it go , it may have been something big or small, but you just could not let it go, most of these thing was stuck energy. One kind of energy is called Earth Energy, this is the energy that comes from the plant. I am sure that the earth is, and has its own energy. As for it being and having a consciousness or an awareness well I don't know too much to say about that.
