Speaking the truth to yourself feels good

Dear Folks,

A friend sent me the following quote from Steve Beckrow:

“Beloved ones, to be in the Frequency of Love you do not have to prove yourself or work on yourself or be something that you are not as yet. You are Love and you express that Truth when you simply align with the Frequency of Divine Will and Cosmic Light. There is nothing to learn or achieve ….you simply allow the Light to flow through you as you become the “Eye of God.” Divine Intelligence experiences itself as Love through You! It is simple when you allow this Flow and this alignment!”

I would like to comment on this quote and invite you to consider how you can tap into the beneficial reality of what this quote is trying to impart… while not falling prey to its limiting beliefs. In my opinion, it illustrates both a beautiful desire to share love (thank you Steven!) and a distortion of the truth. And while I deeply appreciate the intention, my job right now is to discuss frequency, tuning and resonance in a way that helps any interested party in accurately embodying this vast metaphor so we can grow, heal ourselves, and surrender to being filled with Cosmic Love and Light. Ya dig?

In my opinion, the simplest most core way to express what it is that the human race does that is dysfunctional (i.e. that leads to pain rather than the freedom to love) is that we deny our feeling nature. Whether it’s our attitudes about sex, our myths (Adam and Eve getting kicked outta the garden), our values (it’s what you think is real, not what you feel), our collective training (suck it up, stick your head in the sand, feeling is wrong, shameful and bad).

The version of the I Ching I love to work with (Carol K. Anthony and Hanna Moog’s, see earlier post re Resources) was a revelation for me, because of it’s deep grasp of this issue. Being someone who is healing myself from forty years of denying my emotional and bodily feelings, I know the potency of how painful this can be. I also know the blessing of how releasing it is to finally awaken to accepting, being OK with, and letting flow my feelings. Byron Katie’s work, the Forum, somatics, and many other approaches are great treasures, in that they teach us how what we think is… well, what we think. And that’s OK. But it’s not necessarily what’s real, and just because we think it doesn’t mean we have to run it through our emotional bodies without discernment.

Understand how it works: you think something, then you judge it as not OK, then of course, you must suppress it. You must resist what you’re feeling. (Because once a feeling is labeled as “bad” who in the world would ever choose to feel it—to feel bad?) And, once you are busy resisting it, your focus (your attention, your attitude) is LOST to that resistance. You have little or not attention left over to perceive Light and Love. Cut off from what you are feeling, from your feeling nature, and you cut off from reality, from your authentic wholeness. That is a very painful condition, and it is THE human foible of all times. (It’s not about thinking positively; it’s about focusing on Light and Love, and ALL that entail!)

New-paradigm awareness is all about fusion. It’s about allowing oneness with the All. That means ALL energies, folks. What you are thinking, what you are feeling, what’s really happening, what do you wish were happening, even what’s happening in an alternate reality (we won’t get into that now, OK?). Old-paradigm awareness is all about conflict. It’s OK to feel this/it’s not OK to feel that… Endless suffering and continual pain are the inevitable result. Which do you choose now?

As the I Ching sez: mind connected to feeling nature (to its nature, to the body) results in remembering the feel of Cosmic Love. This is precisely what Open Focus imparts. Feeling space IS feeling conscious Love. Same thing. It’s feeling it all—the ground of being—and the space from which it comes, is and returns to. However, mind disconnected from feeling nature, by default, equals mind connected to ego (mind HAS to connect to something to be activated, just like a tuning fork must touch wood to be heard). So, it’s either mind connected to feeling nature or to ego. Notice which choice most people make; notice which choice is reflected in the world at large in every single system that human beings have created. Notice which choice is leading us into destruction, because it is, indeed, an ultimate act of self-destruction. (When we focus on the ego, the Self, is under attack, because that’s what the ego thinks it must to do to keep us safe.) Notice what happens the very instant you choose to connect mind to its feeling nature. (Breath opens up, you feel grounded, mind relaxes, attention expands to include present-moment joy, etc.)

Back to the quote…
Of course he’s right in his basic concept: You are Love and you express that Truth when you simply align with the Frequency of Divine Will and Cosmic Light. There is nothing to learn or achieve ….you simply allow the Light to flow through you as you become the “Eye of God.”
That's my whole point about asking for resonance rather than to "raise your vibration"  … which is a mind-divorced-from body concept about what you think you are not, but should be. Whereas resonance is what you already ARE, and by asking for this, you bring your awakened consciousness into harmony with the truth of who you are. And then, PING!, you are resonant (whole, perfect, living love).

However, to my perception there is not "the" frequency of love. There is a SYMPHONY of frequencies—All frequencies, to be exact—and that, when we come into harmony with ourselves and the Cosmos, we can hear, see and feel as love.

Now, I know that some of you may thinking I'm nit-picking, and so be it. But frankly, I think that if people say or especially write things and use words, like “frequency”, it is their responsibility to use them correctly. You and I both know the power of words. And I personally LOVE that we have an entire Cosmos full of all frequencies, from 0 Hz to infinite Hz (cycles per second).

Time for a quick review of what frequency is, from a (somewhat) technical point of view: A frequency is a sound wave (vibration) that can be measured in Hz or cycles per second. As such, every possible speed of cycles exists, from the very, very low to the very, very high (i.e. nuclear fission and beyond). Low frequencies are no more bad than high ones are good; they just are what they are. In some situations, one if more appropriate than another. To label low freqs as bad and high ones as good is code for saying that the body is bad and the mind (or spirit) is good. Not true. It’s ALL good; it’s all just what it is. How would you like for the “raise your vibes” police to come into your house and rip out the lower octaves of your piano, you know… for your security and well-being? To ground is to flow in low vibrations—yummy, healing. To be stuck in “fight or flight” mode is to cram your brainwaves into an ultra-high vibe state. Still want to raise them some more, huh? Ask for resonance, for it all and take what you get and love it for what it is. That’s self-healing via you’re your Frequency-Tuning Resonance for real.

To suggest that there is ONE PARTICULAR frequency that is Love is old-paradigm speak. It leads directly into trying, endless seeking (better find that one frequency or you're outta the loop, sucker!), and disconnecting from the All (Oh, I don't want those other non-love freqs anywhere near me, bleech). It leads to denying our bodies, and thus lack of grounding (which results in even more pain and suffering). If something is true, if something is worth believing, it’s worth running it through your emotions and body!

And the only thing that’s true is that you were put here on earth to embody loving it all,  being it all… just because it's All here, and we are it All. And if you are gonna use the term “frequency” than understand what it is, just the way you wouldn't blather on about an isotope or skew-risk options charts unless you knew what the heck they were! Language is a direct arrow into our thinking brains. (i.e. thoughts ARE specific frequencies). What we think is how we feel. How we feel creates the quality of energy we give forth into the Cosmos. And that, my friends, determines the quality of energy we receive back. So use words to mean what they really do mean, and you've got instant alignment with what you really do choose. Use words in old-paradigm ways and you are contributing to keeping the conflict going, within yourself and others. Again, your choice.

To conclude: in healing my body, there is ONLY ONE THING that actually heals me. It’s surrendering to the resonance of my being. When my focus, predominately, is attuned to this resonance—when I am the living embodiment of my Frequency-Tuning Resonance—then I feel wonderfully alive, relaxed, flexible and clear. Resonance, by definition, is all frequencies in their uniquely perfect expression of the moment, embodied in its present form. In your case, that means your body. So, as Steven says: stop seeking and start finding it all right here, right now. Grounding, centering in and receiving your resonance is the natural result of mind connected to its feeling nature. It is the one way we can KNOW truth, rather than just think about it (or wish and hope something is true).

Embraced by the All,
Laurel
