The FORGOTTEN Key to Releasing Resistance

You’ve heard for a while now that resistance is the root of all suffering and that when you resist the challenges in your life, be it your health, your relationships, your finances or something else, that very resistance is what makes those challenges ten times harder, makes you suffer more, and even worsens the conditions you are in. They end up as symptoms in your body and mental and emotional despair.

You hear that you are supposed to just go with the flow, stop fighting for survival and let life happen to you, come what may. Be in trust. Just be…. and you’ll no longer suffer.

If you can get there, that’s great. But trying to get there in order to change something is in a way also resisting what is. So how do you really let go and let life live itself fully without trying to control it? How do you make sense of all the ups and downs and ride this rollercoaster of life with your hands up in the air?

In our attempts to release resistance, we often forget the most powerful instrument of awakening we have at our disposal… and that is our heart.

THE EYES OF LOVE

Today I’d like to present a shift in perspective that will completely change your reality as you experience it, and that is to see everything through the eyes of love. You don’t need a reason to feel love in your heart for all things. You don’t need to love any person or thing in particular. You exist in an ocean of love in and around you, and as an infinite soul you have a direct connection to an infinite supply of love from the Source field… through your heart.

When you’re able to take a step back and see all the highs and the lows of life through the eyes of love, your resistance to life just dissolves into the bright light of your heart’s pure radiance. When you do this, not only does your resistance dissolve, but you shine more and more of your own soul’s light through your heart, out into your field, allowing your body to heal itself, bringing your mental and emotional worlds into balance, and touching the very edges of the universe with the infinite power of your sacred heart.

When you can see your pain through the eyes of your heart and learn to love it, you start to see what your pain is truly made of… it’s made of light. It’s the light of divine Source consciousness under pressure to just appear dark. Darkness and pain have their place in the universe. They play specific roles: They limit us and squeeze us to see what we’re made of. They create contrast. They motivate us to create change. They drive us to innovate and find new ways to improve our lives and our world. Duality is not going away. Can you love it simply because it exists? Can you find the light in your pain and love it?

FLIP ON THE SWITCH

If you’re open to reframing how you look at the world to start to see everything through the eyes of love, contemplate the patterns of suffering in your life. Trace the thread of learning and expansion that you’ve gone through over the years, including past lives if you’re aware of them, and experiment with… seeing all the ups and downs, all the darkness and light, all the laughter and tears, through the eyes of your heart. Love it all just because it exists. Feel the spaciousness and limitlessness of your love.

You don’t need a reason or a person or an object to love. Just decide to flip on the switch, open your heart with all the bravery that entails, and love everything you see. Love every part of yourself and everything you’ve been through. Know that there was a reason why your soul chose to go through everything you did, and that it was a decision based in love. When you can look at even your darkest moments with an understanding born of love, you instantly shift all of the energies and traumas around it – your awareness alone is enough to create change, because you’re finally no longer wanting to change it! You love it just as it is, and you’ll forget you ever had resistance.

And be prepared that when you start to live your life in love, everything that’s not love will come up one by one to be seen and integrated into the light of your loving awareness. Your body may go through a purge to let go of the resistance it was carrying. Let it clean itself out. It may look like a bit of an illness for a while, but it will pass.

Everything in your life that’s not love will also come up to processed and released. Problems will come up. Traumas will show themselves. And you take each as it comes, loving it and dissolving it into light. Welcoming its wisdom. Life may test you for a little while too to see if you’ve really changed. But you practice staying in love and that too will pass.

You’ll still live your life, do what you need to survive and thrive, say NO to things you don’t want in your life and strive to improve your world. You’ll go through ups and downs and you’ll feel pain. But when you look back, you’ll love every minute of it with the tenderness of compassion and appreciation for the divine light that shone through even the darkest moments.

I know it sounds kind of impossible, and yes, I know what kind of world we live in. But in the end, why else would Source choose to have these very intense adventures as all of us in the first place? Because everything already is made of love. Everything is loved by the universe for no other reason than that it exists. You are love in human form. You don’t need a reason to love. At any moment, you can decide to flip on the switch, open your heart, and see every moment as precious, as fleetingly beautiful, and an expression of divine love.

Remember I’ve got a free community and a lot of resources for you to support your journey of discovering your true nature as love. If you’d like to meditate with us live, or just feel some companionship from like-minded souls, you can find us HERE.

Go forth and be the love that you are today.

Namaste, my friend.
