We live in a challenging time, and the
battle-cry is RESIST!
even sometimes from the pulpit, from
spiritual folks...
But, Jesus said: “resist not
evil”
Why would he say that?
Clearly, we should not allow
unproductive behavior, hurtful words and actions... right?
Well, Let's unpack this a bit.
1) Resistance is a powerful
anti-blessing
Physically:
Resistance is a nature human reaction
to what we do not like, to what we judge to be wrong. It is a
behavior, and it is also a body-energy.
Spiritually:
Resistance is friction in our space, it acts like tar – holding
US and Them in place.
As a soul-reader/healer, I see Resistance
as the same color as Hate, Hopelessness, Despair, Punishment, and
Anti-God energy.
2) Resistance is Futile
Resistance drives us in the wrong
direction:
we go toward where we put our attention
what we put our attention on grows
“what you resist not only persists,
but will grow in size.”
- Carl Jung, depth psychologist
“He who fights with monsters should
be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long
into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee.”
- Friedrich
Wilhelm Nietzsche in “Beyond Good and Evil”
3) Resistance keeps us from playing our
own game.
4) Resistance and its counterpart
Attachment, keep us from being Clear, unhooked
physically, in electricity - If a
material has a high resistance, it means electricity will struggle to
get through it. The more the electricity has to struggle, the more
energy is
wasted.
Spiritually, energetically - Wherever
we resist in our own space, it makes us vulnerable - its stuck and
collects ouchies
matthew 7
1“Do
not judge so that you will not be judged.
2“For
in the way you judge, you will be judged;
and by your standard of
measure, it will be measured to you.
3“Why
do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye,
but do not
notice the log that is in your own eye?
4“Or
how can you say to your brother,
‘Let me take the speck out of your
eye,’
and behold, the log is in your own eye?
5“You
hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will
see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
5) Resistance distracts us from doing
what actually works – Acceptance, and then Action not Reaction
If we want to make a positive
difference, we must Be with what IS.
In improv – playful yes is the only
useful response, from there we can lead
“We cannot change anything unless we
accept it.”
- Carl Jung, depth psychologist
"You never change things by fighting the
existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes
the existing model obsolete".
- Buckminster Fuller
No Problem can be solved by the same
level of consciousness that created it
– unknown (but not Einstein)
.
Jesus goes WAY beyond being Clear – non-Resistance
all the way to “love your enemies”
Talk about Being Love, playing your
own game:
In the middle of being arrested,
First:
playing your own game: we do not
play the same games as those we disagree with – we play a different game, from a different consciousness:
"
one of those
who were with Jesus reached and drew out his sword,
and struck the
slave of the high priest and cut off his ear.
Then Jesus said to him,
“Put your sword back into its place;
for all those who take up the
sword shall perish by the sword.”
"
- Mat 26:51-51
Second:
Being Love:
“
And He touched
his ear and healed him.
”
- Luke 22:51

(some notes from an advanced class around resistance, in case anything serves you)
What is Resistance:
Resistance is an energy.
It's a body
energy, you feel it in your body.
It comes with the territory of
having a body.
It's the energy of not liking what IS: what is
happening, what someone is doing, something about yourself or another
person; something about the situation. It's the energy of digging in
your feet and going "grrrr, grrrr, grrr."
Reactive
When you are in resistance, you lose
your power.
When you resist something, you give up your seniority to
it.
When you lose your power and your seniority, you cannot change
whatever it is you are resisting.
You are STUCK. You can't move
forward, you can't move backward.
When you see that you are in
resistance to someone, you really are in resistance to yourself.
The
first step is to ask yourself:
"What is the matching picture
here that I don't want to see in myself."
If you can't see it in
your own space, then you project it onto someone else.
I'm sure
you've seen OTHER people do this.
"I will never be like my Dad!"
using the same tone of voice that his father uses.
This is why we read other people -- to
blow our matching pictures.
Sometimes it is easier to see the picture
lit up in someone else than in yourself.
Then you find that picture
in your space and blow it.
You know you've blown the picture when you
feel neutral
-- you aren't in resistance anymore.
You've gotten your
power and seniority back.
You can breathe again!
Sometimes it is "Who does this
person remind me of?"
Someone who wasn't very nice to me?
When you are in resistance,
you cannot
hear or have any valuable information that the person, or the
situation, might have for you.
You're just stuck saying, "No,
no, no, no, no!"

Body of Glass
Body-of-Glass is the art of
non-resistance and removing the pictures that collect as energy in
our space.
You become what you resist because when you are
resisting something, you are putting your energy into the picture of
whatever it is you are resisting.
By putting energy into the picture,
you are validating it and making it more "real"
(manifesting it).
We get rid of our pictures by exploding roses.
But
you’re not going to explode every picture you have,
especially
since we have trillions of pictures of life experiences we have had.
The older you get the more pictures you have, the more things you have done.
You don’t have to explode all the pictures to be in
a body of glass,
you just have to explode the resistance.
You can
still have the picture but you clean off and explode the resistance
to it.
This tool is called a body of glass
because the energy can pass right through, like a beam of light.
The resistance in your space acts like dirty spots on glass that hold
on to energy as it tries to pass through.
We don’t turn into
glass, we become “no resistance”.
There is always a
picture, doorway, or an agreement to allowing someone else’s energy
in your space.
You do not have to de-energize all your pictures and
thoughts in order to be immune to collecting energy from others.
You can instead become a Body of Glass in which you have zero
resistance.
We create and use a rose to collect up resistance
in our auras and remove it.
Then we experience being a body of
glass to invalidation, competition, and anger.
Be a Body of
Glass before any reading.
Create a rose and pull out all the
resistance energy in your aura.
Do this whenever you know there is a
lot of attention being placed on you;
whenever you are going to teach
or give a talk and know there are some people that don’t like you
or what you have to say.
Most psychics have not been trained to
let competition go so it is a good idea to become a body of glass to
let their energy pass through.
Also, it is a good idea to stay in
amusement, smile, and laugh.
You do this and become a body of glass
and your energy will stay high and there will not be such an energy
drain.
Also, you will have more clients than if you are not so serious
and if you don't let resistance stick to you.
Be sure you ground, run
energy, become a body of glass, and get in amusement and get up at
the end of the day and feel better.
Bring in a golden sun.
