Perceptual Dependence

by Rev. Gina Lucia, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

Are we conditioned to believe “the systems way” is the only way it can be done? A perceived dependency on an external hierarchal system?

Are we being challenged now to go beyond the dream spell into a deeper, spiritual awakening towards a profound collective entrainment guided by an Innate Wisdom, accessible to us all? Are we ready to align ourselves with the sovereignty of our holy existence? 

We cannot have illusions and truth at the same time. Let us remember… we are in God’s Kingdom.

“Your guest has come. You asked Him, and He came. You did not hear Him enter, for you did not wholly welcome Him. And yet His gifts came with Him. He has laid them at your feet, and asks you now that you will look on them and take them for your own. He needs your help in giving them to all who walk apart, believing they are separate and alone.”

A change in such conditioning can find a natural rhythm of ease if journeyed with your Guide, an Inner Wisdom; ALWAYS just right there. 

“Let us be still an instant, and forget all things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception that we hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. That every image held of everyone be loosened from our minds and swept away.” (T-31.I.12:1-4)

Where does this leave us?

“Before you answer, pause to think of this:
The answer that I give my brother is what I am asking for. And what I learn of him is what I learned about myself.”

Then let us wait an instant and be still, forgetting everything we thought we heard; remembering how much we do not know. This brother neither leads nor follows us, but walks beside us on the selfsame road. He is like us, as near or far away from what we want as we will let him be. We make no gains he does not make with us, and we fall back if he does not advance. Take not his hand in anger but in love, for in his progress do you count your own. And we go separately along the way unless you keep him safely by your side.” (T-31.II.6:1-9)

We are all in this together, collectively awakening to truth. What an amazing time to witness this great awakening. The boundaries of the mind are expanding to a higher understanding of our purpose, our visit here, in and on this earthly plane. With all the change going on in the physical world no wonder we are feeling pushed, pressured, in a hurry to do one of the many actions from a perceptual dependency. The ego’s hierarchal dictate.

The truth is closing in. In separateness our communication fails. The Holy Spirit’s goal gives one interpretation parallel in meaning to us and our brother’s. We have one Interpreter. Through His symbols, lessons to choose continue in choosing Love, understanding forgiveness, and lead us back to each other in the One Mind of God, where we all reside. May we all find the universal language to communicate effectively. Reality is changeless. There is no miracle we cannot have when we desire healing. May we all attain to look into our brothers eyes and behold within ourselves what we see. Take it to the Holy Spirit for interpretation. 

“An ancient hate is passing from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all fear. Look back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you have ever wanted in your heart. Give up the world!” (T-30.V.9:1-4)

As we continue on our journey may we lean in a little longer, soften just a little more. As the awakening deepens, may we recognize the fulfillment of our deepest potential with less effort and a lessened sense of “self,” as we collectively awaken to our divine sovereignty.

Above all else a willingness to put God first prepares a spiritually fertile foundation where clarity, love, peace, joy, communion and compassion are co-creators in our relationship to all things. 

“Nothing but the laws of God has ever been, and nothing but His Will will ever be. You were created by His laws and by His Will, and the manner of your creation established you a creator.” (T-10.IV.5:5-6)
