A Word on Sin
Lowering mass consciousness, earthbound energies, and healing the trauma of sin. A metaphysical perspective on manipulation and loss of personal power. You are infinitely worthy of unconditional love.
‘I am not worthy to receive you, only say the word and I shall be healed’.
This is one of the most damaging lines I know.
Why?
Because I work with earthbound energies every day.
Taken from Matthew 8:8, “The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof…”
How has the centurion’s disbelief in his own worth become a line repeated in mass for centuries, consolidating human fears of unworthiness for generations?
A dip into the metaphysical
Unworthiness is one of the single most important earthly wounds we are here to heal while in human form.
We are not born with ‘unworthiness’ – as any parent can tell you when they behold the divine energy that is a child.
Consider how deeply rooted in our culture it has become through some of the notions we accept:
some are more deserving than others
only certain ages and stages in life are deemed ‘beautiful’
only by doing for others, will they love us and we will be accepted or have value
through our achievements and good deeds we can prove that we are ‘enough’
only good boys and girls go to heaven
The religious notion that we are inherently flawed is one of the major contributors to self-discontent and the belief in lack of self-worth.
This is not to say there are not many enlightening messages in the bible or whichever religious text you prefer, however, there is a clear dichotomy between the message of Christ for example, and the way it has been interpreted by religion. We can look at a couple of examples to understand why the message has been subverted.
Exclusion and Manipulation
So how is it that we have created and participated in a world where religion is used to bind?
Nowhere did Christ reference that one person was more important than another. Yes, he fearlessly admonished those who did not respect their fellow-humans, but he did not seek to exclude or shun anyone from the message of love – neither women, minorities, nor lepers.
Consider the manipulation wielded in the name of religion through fear of sin and eternal damnation, used to subvert the population. The base emotion of ‘fear’ belongs to every human. It is part of the illusion of the physical and when allowed to roam rampantly through our being and rule our conscious minds, we are very susceptible to more of the same. In this way our world has been shaped through gain at the cost of another -
conflict, violence and war for power and control
women accepting a lesser role (for we are 50% of the population, are we not?)
persecution of minorities
unequal distribution of resources
deceit
the ravaging of Mother Earth
the lowering of Mass Consciousness
Power of Control
We are in the physical to reclaim our personal power. When we are ready, we can choose to break through the illusion and remember we are one with all.
Christ Consciousness is the understanding that all are one energy.
We can’t separate energy from energy, right?
When we apply science to our being, we find that we are fundamentally energy – atoms comprising of energetic particles, arranged in a variety of ways to form matter There is no known way we can divide one energy from the other. The energy in the container touches the energy in the contents, or the energy in the air we breathe touches the energy that makes up our bodies.
All are one.
Energy is not ‘good’ or ‘bad’ – it just is
And so are we neither ‘good’ nor ‘bad’.
All exist as part of duality – male/female, light/dark, healed/unhealed. In this way we come to the awareness of our shadow self and are invited to offer unconditional love to every version of ourselves.
As part of All that Is/Source/God/Allah/Divine Intelligence we also know that we are inherently love and here for the purpose of joy. Anything that is not love, is not who we are but the debris we have collected along the way.
These wounds, the debris, do not define who we are but are merely invitations from our Higher Self to remember and heal that which we are not. And if we don’t’ get the message the first time, it (our Higher Self, our fragment of Divine Source) sends another situational message to create discomfort as an attempt to get our attention.
So then what role does recrimination and shame have? Consider what happens when we admonish or shun the learner… eventually they learn to hide their ‘mistakes’ wrapped up in a belief of perfection as a defence against criticism, or they simply stop trying. We wouldn’t berate a child for learning to tie their shoe laces in their own timing and nor should we hamper our learning with self-criticism. If it takes 10 times or 110 times, we learn eventually and in our right timing.
Infinitely worthy
Jesus spoke of the inherent worth of every individual, denouncing the religious deceit that humans were separated from God. In contrast, he denied he was a saviour, and that heaven was within us. He urged people to wake up and save themselves.
Metaphysically we understand ‘God’ or Source is within us all –we are fragments of Source energy in a body, living out our Divine plan in the physical. As co-creators of our experiences to learn, grow, and evolve we are powerful. Powerful beings, with inherent authority to live through our experiences and to awaken to the infinite and limitless beings that we are.
Earthbound - the consequence of unhealed beliefs
A life lived in fear of sin is not the only consequence of holding the limiting belief of unworthiness. The final cost of allowing ourselves to fall victim to the belief in sin is the confusion that it creates when we leave the physical body. Energies that become earthbound are often the energies of individuals who look back toward Earth with regret, shame and guilt, seeking relief through the forgiveness of others. Having forgotten the Divine energy within, they continue to look outward. Effectively creating an energetic ‘purgatory’ – they become stuck between the realms of the physical and Christ Consciousness - or earthbound.
And how long does ‘purgatory’ last? As long as we believe in it and our unworthiness.
As a spiritual healer, when we locate these lost souls, we help them to understand the manipulation and flawed thinking behind teachings of sin and unworthiness. As they are reminded to look within and remember their own Divine energy, we can then guide them to return to Source. The more entrenched in the misguided notions of unworthiness the soul in human form was, the more convincing is required. Once acheived, we often ‘see’ the lost soul ascending, recognising those who loved them who have gone before, welcoming them home.
We are here to heal the trauma of sin
Choose not to pass on the burdens of guilt and judgment to our children. Look to the light within and revere the incredible being we each are, working through many experiences for a rich and wonder-filled physical life.
All in Divine right timing.
All is well.
