The purpose of the Spirit Affinity is the promotion of spiritual awakening and optimal health among adults regardless of religious affiliation or background. The Spirit Affinity is centered on the concept that human spirituality is a form of sensuality~the use of all of the senses (not just the basic 5) to experience both worlds seen and unseen. Sensuality encompasses both the natural and the supernatural elements vital for the balance between body, mind, and spirit.
At some point during my adult years, I looked back on my life and realized I was a fraud. My physical world was drastically out of alignment with my spiritual one. It was similar to cooking an elaborate meal while starving, but not being able to consume it. I grew up in a very strict Christian setting dominated by Southern Baptist doctrines. Church every Sunday, choir, usher board, trustee board, Sunday school, morning service, evening service... the environment was filled with bible-toting scripture-quoting tongue-speaking hallelujah shouting folks! Fortunately, I was exposed to many people of integrity and positive influences that instilled in me priceless values. My parents emphasized education until it was drilled into my psyche. On the flip side, I was fed a lot of half-truths, partial truths, and altered truths by so-called well-meaning people. Ignorance, closed-mindedness, pride, & arrogance are likely some of the causative factors. Therefore, I impersonated what a Christian should look and act like based on deficient information. There was no valid connection between the worldly me and my higher self. I impersonated what a Christian should look and act like, but I had no real relationship with my Creator. I prayed to a God I was told to pray to quoting the prayers I was taught to quote. Like a soldier taking orders from his commanding officer: You do as you are told and trained to do whether you are feeling it or not!
Out of Nowhere
I am not sure what event triggered my self-realization, yet it was life-transforming. The process is nowhere near complete rendering an ongoing journey. A crucial part of my being that was sleep woke up and jolted me to the core. Sadly, many people live their whole lives and depart without recognizing that crucial element. My recognition of that element catapulted my mind to a higher wave length. There was a burst of clarity illuminating my understanding of almost everything.
One major area of enlightenment is human sensuality--the mother of physical intimacy. The religious forums that dominate the media treat it like it is nonexistent (unless a scandal hits the news) or something to shun from discussion. In contrast, sensuality should be celebrated and promoted within a God-ordained context. Consequently, inner eyes open, new ideas blossom, paradigms shift, and higher consciousness ensues.
Spiritual enlightenment brings about intelligence and inner peace. It is not about being a Biblical scholar or expert on religious topics because I am neither--far from it! I started this blog not just to disperse information, but to gain knowledge and expand my horizons. It is truly about making a connection with God who leads us to connecting with deeper aspects of ourselves. Those deeper aspects make up the true self...not our careers, bank accounts, personal possessions, or physical bodies.
Our Eclectic Universe
The physical universe is evidence that the Creator loves diversity. A child of the universe, planet Earth, clearly follows suit with its potpourri of life forms. Within the same life form is remarkable variation ( different species of fish, plants, human racial groups, etc). Does it not stand to reason diversity is expressed on every level of existence/consciousness? It does not matter if you are Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, etc. because you are a different expression of the same universe. Different cloths of fabric are required to construct the quilt. I discovered that all religions contribute knowledge and perspectives that are necessary to complete life's masterpiece. It seems as if everyone has a piece to the puzzle of the universe that may never be fully explained on this realm.
The paths we choose to take to self-realization are possible through the gift from God called freewill. I have discovered there are far more similarities than differences between the major philosophies that lend more support of each other than contradiction. Besides, I dare to count the numerous contradictions that exist just within the Christian faith. Historical and present events demonstrate other religions are plagued with the same multiple interpretations/variations. At one time, the news was flooded with horror stories of conflicts between the Sunni and Shiite Muslims...there is only one Quran is there not??? No one, no science, no religion has escaped the divisiveness of multiple perspectives. Conflicting interpretations give birth to confusion, disbelief, and disillusionment.
One will be greatly distracted if not focused on their own inner voice. It's the God inside of you and me. Ultimately, that is the key: Hearing your own inner voice because once that occurs everything else falls into place.
Enlightenment (Documentary)
Still Waiting For That Breakthrough
Doing all the right stuff, but still no results.
Susan has been fasting and praying for a financial blessing for numerous years. It has been her primary focus and dominates her thoughts. She is a Christian, reads her Bible daily, and faithfully attends church every week. Sunday after Sunday, her pastor shouts, "Hang on, your breakthrough is coming!!!" However, years later, it still has not happened and Susan is losing faith.
Kevin is battling a health condition that he has suffered for most of his life. In spite of his ongoing health issues, he maintains a positive outlook. He studies Eastern based spiritualism and believes the power of his mind creates his reality. As a result, he routinely practices a variety of techniques that promote higher consciousness and healing. After an extended period of time, Kevin is losing patience because his health problems seemingly are not improving.
What is going on???
Ancient wisdom teaches us the law of attraction: We draw to us what we focus on. Our emotions, thoughts, and words are manifested into physical reality. All of us have daily experiences supporting mind over matter. In contrast, many individuals complain that they have prayed, wished for, and concentrated on something fervently for an extended time, yet, it still has not manifested. As a result, they lose faith and hope, become bitter, and question their spiritual beliefs.
"Everything we do echoes into eternity."
Marcus Aurelius
The Universal Law of Cause and Effect aka Karma: Everything we do in the natural realm sends energy throughout the supernatural realm that returns back to us. The principle of reaping what you sow has been taught since the earliest civilizations by notable philosophers, major religions, and is supported by quantum physics.
Positive Versus Negative
The Universal Law of Polarity: The universe is energy that exists on 2 opposite poles. Simply stated, everything that exists has an opposite version...high frequency versus low frequency. Everything, including our emotions and thoughts will gravitate toward one pole or the other. The universe is a conscious entity striving to maintain balance between opposing forces.
Mind Elevation
The Universal Law of Perpetual Transmutation: Higher frequency energy overpowers lower frequency energy. Isn't that great news? Higher frequency energy vibrates at a faster rate. Elevating our consciousness to increase vibrations is the key to anything we desire in life. The techniques to achieve high frequency or Christ consciousness may vary based on spiritual beliefs, but all accomplish the same goal. Jesus Christ of the New Testament Bible is a perfect example of mastering perpetual transmutation.
Yin and Yang
The Universal Law of Gender: Everything that exists has both masculine and feminine traits. Masculine and feminine is not limited to the sexual differences in animals. It represents all opposite properties that complement each other within the same entity, such as light and darkness. There must be a balance and harmony for positive things to manifest.
Just like us, the universe strives to create ideal circumstances for its existence. The interplay of the universal laws in cosmic balance is the reason for every situation. There is no religion or belief system that can escape that reality.
The following are plausible and scientific based explanations of why your breakthrough still has not arrived:
You are not adequately prepared for what you are wishing for. Manifesting a reality you are not ready for disrupts balance. The circumstances in your life may not support or accommodate your desires. Your higher self is not restricted by time and already knows the future. It is lining up your ducks in a row to create the ideal yin/yang situation. It may take time to set the necessary things in place.
You are not in the right season. The spirit realm does not operate within time, but in seasons according to the universal law of rhythms. There are patterns and cycles in nature that must be honored. You might be praying for something that should occur at a different phase in your journey. The higher energy will be shifting in your life to create balance. When the appropriate season rolls around everything will fall into place.
The Butterfly Effect: What happens to the singular resonates throughout the collective experience. The universal law of divine oneness governs this process. Like a chain reaction, the events within the life of an individual impacts every other life on the planet and beyond. In the same manner that the individual may not be prepared, the collective may not be ready either. There must be a coordination of circumstances set into place...harmony.
Your focus is not in alignment with your life's mission. Your life naturally gravitates toward alignment with your higher purpose. Creating a reality contrary to that will disrupt the yin/yang. In this situation, it is best to let nature takes its course. Until you discover your life's mission, you will concentrate on the wrong things. However, when you know what you came here to do, your feelings and thoughts will be in harmony with your higher self.
The reality created by previous consciousness has not completed it course. What we are presently experiencing is the result of karma from previous states of energy. Our current emotions, thoughts, and actions must surpass the threshold of the previous ones. That may take awhile depending on the power of your consciousness. According to the universal law of perpetual transmutation, raising our vibrations will facilitate manifestation.
Curses, spells, and black magic zapping your power. Scary stuff! Whether you believe in it or not, it is actively practiced around the world. The general purpose of curses and spells is to manipulate the reality of other people. Scientifically, it is very low vibration energy being directed at a person. That energy is spiritual in nature designed to override the recipient's mental powers. Raising the vibrations of one's consciousness will repel the lower vibrations based on the law of perpetual transmutation.
All of creation operates within the boundaries of divine purpose and cosmic laws. Once we understand how those rules apply to our existence, there will be no limits on what we can achieve! The mystery schools of ancient times knew this information in detail and it was considered sacred. If someone has been waiting a long time for something and doing all the right things, please continue to do so. Be patient and keep the positive energy flowing. Your situation will rearrange itself accordingly for your maximum benefit within the boundaries of the universal frontier.
“Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.” Bashar
What strategies can a person use to remain focused, patient, and motivated during long waiting periods? How does one's spiritual beliefs impact the specific rituals practiced in achieving his or her goals? If you practice a particular religion, how does it compare and contrast with the scientific explanation on how our reality is manifested? If you are an atheist, how does your view on reality manifestation compare and contrast with spiritual views?
