If you find yourself in spiritual pain, know this; It is not real. The pain you feel is the illusion of separation from That Which Creates. Being separate from the divine flow is impossible. You are exactly who are you are supposed to be in this moment. And, in this moment, if you feel the need to improve or the need to experience greater closeness to the divine, you will do what it takes to achieve. That doing is happening even if you feel like you are going backwards. Feeling like you are moving backwards or sideways or in the wrong direction is an illusion too.
The human spirit, given a long-term view, is only growing. It can do no other thing.
The only reason you are in pain, is because you choose to be. Irritating isn't it?
You are not consciously choosing the pain. It is very real to you. Your soul has created that illusion in order to teach you how to see so many other things as the illusions they are.
Within you, is perfection. Stop fighting it. Let it unfold.

Doing the Wrong Thing
Sometimes when you do the wrong* thing, it is because you are afraid of whom your are capable of being.
Sometimes when you do the right* thing, it is to demonstrate to others who you think you are.
When you are in the proper place, you do things because you are expressing everything you are in that moment**.
* The wrong thing can be ethical, moral or simply against who you are. The right thing can be ethically, morally, or in alignment with who you can be or will be or should be.
** Well no matter what this is true. All you can ever do is fully express who you are. In this case, I am referring to your full Being as the spiritual experience of personal self-gnosis.

Peace
Once in a while, I still read the blogs. I see the opinions offered forth and feel...nothing.
Years ago, the discussion meant a lot to me. Now, not so much.
Now, the only things such things reveal is the place of the writer. There is nothing wrong with that.
Years ago, someone's place mattered a great deal to me. Now, not so much.
The only thing that matters is my own place. Know Thyself, the oracle says.
Knowing yourself brings you to such a place of comfort that the prior need to argue a point is unfathomable.
Simply doing what one is supposed to do is all that matters.

The Proper Expression of the Soul
The errors we make are educational because every action expresses the will of the soul. Errors are born by the personality misapplying that will or as I sometimes call it, soul talents. If one is making a consistent error, correction begins with the question, what am I trying to do? For instance, after a religious argument realize that you are not trying to belittle a man for his beliefs. You are trying to correct his path. What are you trying to do in correcting his path? Help him live in alignment with God. That is only three steps: Belittling; correcting; aligning.
Start there. How can I help a man live in alignment with God? Step one, listen to him now. Listen intently to his understanding of God. Watch closely his actions. See what moves him away from that understanding. Softly speak to him of that which moves him away. Guide him back to his own understanding. Not yours.
From there, he may grow into a deeper understanding as he chooses. Your job is done. Someone else may help him go deeper.
Of course, this is just an example. It isn't even mine but it is someone's. Draw an analogy in your life for whatever your issue is. Find your soul-talents and begin to learn to apply them.
Correct expression is utilizing those soul talents with the proper sense of timing.
Proper expression of your soul begets love in all forms. You see the wide variety of ways people love both you and each other. You will even feel a humble self-love.
Love is the Law; Love under Will.

An Important Note on Secrecy
Occultists will tell you to stay silent, keep your secrets, keep THEIR secrets. Whisper whisper nod nod.
They have their reasons. I won't decry them here.
There is a problem with doing occult things and then keeping them to yourself. You get stuck in your head, get stagnant, deluded, paranoid or inflated.
I have broken this rule of secrecy repeatedly and I am doing quite will thank you very much.
Obey at your own risk.
