Emotions Part #2

Sadness is an emotion that is at large in the world today.
Thousands of people suffer from sadness on a daily basis.
If sadness is just another emotion, why doesn't out 'Emotion Fog' (See Emotional Energy post) run out as fast? What is depression?

Depression isn't just intense sadness. It is something built up inside someone. It started out as just plan emotion, but maybe an event triggered it and it became worse? What was that event?

Once you find out what even caused the sadness to become depression, you can start to destroy it.
Events are a massive force that shape us, even the smallest event can spur us onward, change our lives, change another person's life, do great things or even bad things to us.

I'll explain some events that may trigger depression:

How to Deal with a Bad Relationship: I have never been in a relationship, so many people wouldn't want to hear my advice on this subject. But I know how I want to be treated in a relationship, and how I would treat my partner, plus, I have had reincarnations before, so I can get the basic idea.

A good relationship can come to an end, either the Universe pulled us apart or we just couldn't do it anymore. Either way, the relationship is over. Dealing with this would seem devastating, depending on how intense of a relationship it was. But meditating in the middle of nature can help greatly here. Not only will you find out that something still loves you, you will also discover that the earth itself wants your affection.

Any breakup should be dealt with gently. Don't put yourself back out there if you aren't ready. Don't go looking for someone who reminds you of the person you broke up with, even if that guy/girl was the nicest person you have ever met. Look for someone completely new if you are ready.
Also, if it gets worse for you, don't feel bad about talking to someone. Get out there and release those negative energies that are inside your heart. Get them out there, find out that you are special and that there is always someone that loves you.


Losing your Best Friend: Personally, I have felt this. There was one friend who we spent time with pretty much every day in the summer, and as often as we could during the school year. Then one week he just didn't call or show up anywhere. He changed schools and stopped being friends with us. It sucked. For months my brother and I didn't have anyone else (aside from our family) to hang out with.
If this has happened to you, don't worry. Like what with happened with me, there is always someone. It was around this time that I grew super close with my grandparents. Not only were they my family, they also became my best friends. It may seem lame, but they were both pretty cool people.
Even if that person isn't your age, it doesn't mean that they can't be a friend of yours (people in different situations should be cautious though).
When you lose a best friend, get back out there and look for another friend. You would be surprised at just who wanted your attention. New friends are just waiting to be discovered. Keep looking.


Losing those who are no longer with us: People die, it's just that simple. It sounds harsh, but in reality, death is a beautiful thing, even if the person suffered first. When we die, we move on to another place. This new place is beautiful and full of great things. It is full of happiness and no one hurts there. Some call it Heaven, but it doesn't need a name. It just simply is beautiful.

Though it is hard losing someone, you need to remember the good times you spent with them. Picture them when they were healthy and happy. Picture you favorite times with them, keep their love alive by remembering them by how they were, not how they ended up. Still love them, honor them, burn a candle on their birthday just to honor them. Anything positive. Cry if you need to, but you need to create positive emotions when you think of them.

In the days leading up to my grandmother's passing, I gave her a quartz crystal from my collection. I didn't know why, I just felt the urge to give it to her. When she passed, I got this crystal back. I kept it on my shelf for a while, until I was able to go to my favorite spot up north. I went there with my Grandma once, and she said it was beautiful. She loved how the water sounded and she just really liked the place.
When I was there, I found a place where I was alone and I said my good-bye to her. I told her that I loved her. I put all the sadness I felt into the crystal and I threw it out into the waves. Since then, I haven't felt any sadness about her death. Every time I think of her, it is a happy memory.


More soon!

P.S. It helps to talk to Mother God. She understands the emotional side of things and is there and will comfort you. If you need to vent, she is there for you.

Namaste!

Emotional Energy

All throughout our lives, we experience emotions. It doesn't matter how much people want to deny it, we all feel them. But what exactly do we do with them?

First off, I want to talk about happiness.

Happiness is an emotion that almost everyone can enjoy. We smile more, we can sleep better, our bodies can function better and most people enjoy being around happy people.
But when we are happy, bad news doesn't seem to have that much of an affect on us.
But why does this 'Happy Spree' end? If we are nearly invincible to bad news, why do we stop being happy?

Picture emotions like a colorful fog. Any color. This fog is floating inside a clear glass jar. There is a small spout at the top of this jar, which empties the fog out into the world. Every time you laugh (or do something else that makes you happy) a little bit of this fog goes out of the spout and is lost in the world. 

When the fog runs out, there is no emotion left.

Being human, we never go without emotions. When our 'emotional fog' runs out, our mind either makes more of the same kind or a new emotion.

Bottling up our emotions are a bad thing. This is why people who hold onto their anger physically change. Some people can gain weight, lose weight, become bitter or even get sick. 

One would think that keeping happiness bottle up would do the opposite as anger, right? Most likely not. Emotions are not meant to be kept hidden. 

Releasing our emotions is very important. I'll give an example.

Releasing Anger makes it easier for people to calm down. Crying, screaming or even hitting things helps us get rid of that. After a good long cry, most humans tend to calm down and relax. 

Screaming does the same thing. It is a massive release of tension.

Don't think so? Why do you think people scream or raise their voices when they are angry?

Also, hitting things can do the same as above, but it has more of a risk. One should never hit something that can feel pain or discomfort. You should never hit things that could injure you either.

But people have punching bags that they take their anger out on. It seems to work too.

If we are to Release Our Emotions, why are we Taught to Keep Them to Ourselves?

Change. People have forgotten our spirituality, and also our control over our emotions. American civilization doesn't recognize anger as something good. Instead of trying to overcome something natural is very hard. Embracing it is easier. 

Embracing Anger? Why Would Anyone Do This?

Don't picture 'Embracing your Anger' as turning to the Dark Side, picture it like you are able to embrace it, control it and master it. The sooner you master it, the sooner you can learn from it.

Why are Emotions so Important?

Emotions make us what we are. Though it is true that we are not the only species that have emotions, we do have the potential to master them. Mastering your emotions can get you another step closer to being more at one with yourself.

What Exactly is God

People all have different views on God. Even in a specific religion, they can have multiple views on what a 'god' is, and some don't believe it.

Those who are skeptic of God, stay with me. 

God is viewed as many different things, a Warrior, a pacifist, a tyrant, a hippie, an old man, a young man, a woman, a dragon, a child, a beast, a two-headed giant, a flying creature, the list goes on and on.

But (if you are skeptic of God, just pretend for a moment) if God is one 'being' why do people see him differently? Or why do people think that there are more than one god? (like the Greeks did).

In my point of view, God is a being of pure consciousness and energy. Picture a cloud of white or gold mist that covers the Universe. Obviously, a deity with no form is powerful enough to change his shape, so he does.

I also believe that the Universe runs on 'Male and Female' energy (there is nothing sexist about these energies). Om-Father (God) is the male polarity and the Mother Goddess (Azna) is the female polarity. Yin and Yang was a prime example of this energy.

Now, if you missed my previous posts, I'll give you a brief understanding of Male and Female Energies.

Male: Male energy is focused, determined and doesn't leave room for creativity. It is 'By-the-Book'

Female: Female Energy is creative, free thinking and artistic. This energy rarely follows the directions because it dampens one's creativity.

Note: Male and Female energy is inside both genders. If a man is incredibly right-brained (where the female energy resided) it doesn't make him 'girly' or anything like that. It isn't what makes the gender, it is an energy.

If a man feels more creative or a woman feels more by-the-book, don't worry about it. Embrace it.

Why do People View God as Female, but not as Mother God?

Sadly, this is mostly because of the great war on genders. Yes, there are some people who claim to have seen God as a woman, this is because of two reasons. 

1. God came to them in a form that they would be more at peace with.

2. Mother God came to them, but didn't tell them that she was Mother God (because they may not have asked)

Yes, part of God's energy is female, and the other half is male. Life/spirit can not be without both polarities.

What Exactly do the Male and Female Energies have to do with Physical Genders?

Very little. A man being incredibly right brained (or female energetic) doesn't make him homosexual, it makes him right brained. There is nothing to be ashamed of if you are more 'opposite gender energy' because it has very little to do with it.

Why did the Ancients Have More Gods?

Well, I can't speak for every culture, but the Greeks (remember, this isn't proven, but I chose to believe it) had their gods, Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Aries, Apollo, Aphrodite, etc, were all real beings. Remember an earlier post about the Nephilim? Well this is them. They came to earth and were immortal (humans are not immortal) they were very strong, giants, and some had control over elements (lightning, the oceans...). This is clearly a non human race.

There is more to come, but as for right now, Namaste!

Season #2 Start Up and 1,000 views!

Hello again everyone!

I know I didn't make it clear when I left, but I decided to take a break. It was a really rough time in my life and I was struggling with some inner energies. I had to get myself back in order before I could begin...teaching (if you will) again.

But now with everything cleared up, I am back!


Also, in this day-and-age of technology, having 1,000 people view your blog isn't much to some...but to me it is amazing! It was a good inspiration for me to get back in the saddle again. Thank you to everyone!

Now I have a few plans, but I decided to start the 'season' out with a Topic on God Energy.

Namaste

Question Week...again

I was going to talk about another topic today, but I've had these questions that I've wanted to answer. Besides, it's been a busy month lately. I haven't had much time to plan topics.

Here we go, Question 1.

1. Why Should We Believe in a God?

You don't have to believe in anything. You charted your life, so if you didn't want to come into life believing in a deity, don't feel like you need to search for one. Just take what life gives you.

In Christianity, I was taught that people who didn't believe in God, went to hell.

Then I got to thinking "What about the Indians? They didn't know about the 'Christian' God, they were never taught. Then when the 'White man' came, they didn't want to believe in their God, because some of the White Men were cruel.

So...according to Christians, there are no Indians in Heaven?

I didn't like that.

2. Where is the Soul located in the body?

This question can not be truly answered, but many people believe that it is located in the Pineal Gland (right beneath your forehead) or through the eyes "The eyes are the window to a person's soul," sort of thing. But you are your soul. So where ever you are, that is where your soul is.

3. Is God Real?

I believe so. You don't need proof to have faith, but you do need proof to satisfy other people's thinking.

but if someone is worried about you believing in God and not about you as a person, they are not worth hanging around.

Religion was created by people who believe that they have had an experience with 'God'. Don't follow a religion if you don't need to do so. Look into the history of the beliefs, don't follow anything blindly.

4. If Life is About Happiness, why is there Negativity in the World?

Unfortunately, Free-Will gives us the right to be unhappy, as well as being happy. If you haven't found happiness in you life, begin to meditate on what makes you happy.

5. If we Chart all of our Choices in Life, why would anyone Choose to Starve, or be born into a Terrible Life?

Maybe they chose it, maybe they didn't. But there are many people alive today that are not sharing the goodness of the Universe. As a result, there are countries of starving people and people without access to many good things.

Saying "Good bye" verses Saying "See you Later"

When people die, pretty much 80% of people believe that they will get to see their loved ones again, in some sort of afterlife or another. When possible, they gather around the dying person to say their goodbyes and their final words with them. But why exactly do we do this?

Just recently, I had to say my parting words with a close loved one who had passed away. Pretty much my entire immediate family was there to say goodbye. While saying goodbye is good closure for everyone, I thought it best to only say "See you later".

Why? I'll explain:

I didn't say goodbye because it was too hard, but in my mind, saying 'goodbye' makes one think that you may not see them again. While saying "See you later" means just that. My grandmother passed on, but I know I'll see her again, I know I will. I'm sad to have seen her go, especially in the way that she went, but I'm not sad because I don't think I'll ever see her again, I'm sad because I'll have to wait a long time before I do.

Like my friend explained: "When someone dies, they don't really go away. They just go on vacation for a little bit. They go on ahead to make sure everyone will be happy there when the rest of us arrive. Some get the grill fired up, others start making the drinks."

Update

Hey everyone,

I'm still here and writing when I can, but my family has hit a real rough patch recently.
I should be back on schedule this Sunday though.

Hold in there!
