From Dragon Mystery School
We need to talk again about the presence of illusions in your lives. It is necessary for you to become conscious of these illusions that influence your decisions if you are to be free.
We wish to speak specifically about those illusions that are basic and counterproductive to your spiritual growth and independence.
A recent event that was covered by TV and print in the U.S., involved several illusions. People paid a large sum of money to attend a workshop. During the workshop, some of the participants failed to listen to their own bodily wisdom and suffered dire consequences because they gave their own decision making ability and common sense to another. Why is it that you cannot trust yourselves? Why do you mute and ignore your own inner wisdom? Why do you believe that money, degrees and popularity give expertise and wisdom about what works for you in your life? Why do you give control to others who assure you that they know what is best for you? Throughout history some of these assumptions have resulted in death and slavery.
How do you give yourselves permission to question these illusions and begin believing in yourself and your own inner vision? The first step is to get to know yourself and what your values are. This requires quiet time and self-examination. Take the next few weeks and ask yourselves: what are my values, who do I trust more than myself and in what areas and why do I trust them? (For example, you trust doctors without question, but they make mistakes too. Where is your line between trusting the doctor and trusting yourself and your inner guidance?)
You cannot really trust yourselves until you know who you are, what is important to you, and what you are willing to do to achieve your goals. You cannot really trust yourselves until you listen to your deep inner reactions and feelings. This takes time and effort. You have allowed your inner wisdom to be devalued, and your inner voice to be silenced.
It is easy to distrust yourselves when the culture tells you that authority figures are more reliable than your own inner knowing. You also have been told that if something is valuable it must be expensive. So you tend to judge truth and meaning according to outer "tags" like cost, titles, popularity, and salesmanship. This is an illusion, these outer "tags" do no measure truth. They merely measure the current state of your culture.
This is the time to allow and encourage your inner wisdom to be heard and acted upon in your life, because this time is about empowering yourselves to experience the God in you. |
