If it has been understood that everything comes from a mental plane other than the physical plane or the world, then many of the illnesses that people suffer from originate from there. Many call them psycho-somatic but what is being indicated is that basically the illnesses are mental, except for some fate situation such as birth cases or something generated in your life in an event that fulfills a purpose in your life. Evidently, understanding the the practical reality of our world today, the occurrence of diseases is the common scenario, but it should not be normal.
This is why a metaphysical understanding is necessary. As will be seen, respecting the incidence of biology in its context, we will not refer to a mind relating it to the brain, because this mind is located at another level. Effectively the body and any organ would respond and give signals as reflexes or projection in this world.
For a better understanding, it is important to slightly revise certain aspects and concepts that place us beyond our simple senses. An analogy with a video game may be helpful or something similar. And I believe that the following information may be useful, understanding the clarification that has been made about contexts or frames of reference, the one that presents us with the practical reality does not have to be lost at all.
Imagine that from the Universe of Unity, or from a certain aspect of the original Mind, a curious idea led to dreaming a world of illusions where the mind thought it was separated into many minds. Such a fractionation seemed innumerable even if it was only a mental game of separation that has never taken place in what is One. This approach is inspired by “A Course In Miracles” and it would be important to refer to what it says if you take that course.
To come to consider the idea of “Consciousness”, “Unconscious” or an “I” would be at a different level from Unity which only recognizes what Is without place to opposites, shadows or the like, perhaps it would be at a doorstep. In ultimate reality you don’t have to be aware of the other or anything else, simply “God Is”. However, referring to Consciousness is a step in the direction that is required for an understanding of this world and your truth.
The following concepts are only ideas that apply to the level of presentation of this universe which can be considered as a projection of an aspect of the original Mind. The universe of duality, multiplicity, separation, of signs, of the phenomena, of entities, of forms or of vibration, could suppose degrees, dimensions, densities and several thresholds between them, not so that of the Unity of the Spirit.
If the observable universe is a dream, then it would have to be understood that it never had a beginning nor does it have an end in itself, nor is it infinite. It seems that this universe is not a dream from which you can wake up so easily, apparently is deep and lightens when you realize that in the end is not consistent enough, so you start listening to your guide and you train your mind, it is as if you knew that when the transition came you can use it as a sleep alarm clock. You are still in the dream and you could even make better use of it and laugh.
Let’s say that the script starts from the separation and is a script of separation. Therefore, The Inner Guide presents us with another system of thought and a different way of reading the script, perhaps in some cases we could rewrite it, for example, with the practice of metaphysical forgiveness. The script is behind the Universal Laws, cosmic mechanisms, what we call time, the issue with vital energy or vibration, evolution in this universe, social issues, natural disasters, destiny, life lessons from the individual, personality types (e.g. the one presented by the enneagram), etc.
If someone thinks in a timeline or linear fashion, as we usually do, that timeline has had and has a script. And if someone thinks that there can be a number of possibilities, a would-have or certain potential futures, that is still part of a script. Even if someone thinks of parallel universes or past lives, even if these follow their own script or version, it would still be part of a larger script, that is, a script from some other mind level. It is like in a role-playing game where the character seems to be free to move around in a scenario and decisions are made, in fact, it is experienced in that way. However, there is a range of possibilities, levels and objectives, or a plan designed for the game, and you can enjoy the game.
Sometimes that script seems adverse or with aspects of fear, not at all loving. Due to the confusion of separation and a certain veil, we forget that we are part of the character and we also participate in some way in the writing of the script. To change it or to have another reading, making way in the middle of the character who feels he experiences it, is not only a challenge, it is the invitation to rediscover your right, your innocence and your ultimate truth. From that perspective you can heal the past, avoid unnecessary futures, or the prolonged proposal of evolution. The illusion of time can be used for the benefit of the Spirit, since time ultimately does not exist and its great universe cannot and must not be sustained.
For now, let’s say it’s the one that seems to make decisions in the world or tends to highly influence them. However, if you understand that you are neither a body nor the personality, then you could identify with the mind that actually makes the decisions.
It can be said that there is an internal and genuine part of us where the definitive decisions are made, I understand that Dr. Kenneth Wapnik has wanted to represent and refer to that aspect of the mind called the decision maker.
The person also tends to identify with the body. As a role-playing game the character has its avatar. The personality is formed at a time in your life, about this you can review information such as the enneagram of the personality, bearing in mind that this does not define you, since you could clarify the voice of intuition that is your voice. The personality is the one that an individual usually identifies with but it corresponds more to a false me. Although this may sound somewhat uncomfortable, in effect if you have identified with it from there its incidence in your way of acting in the world.
The personality can be transcended by strengthening the awareness or knowledge of unity, you do not have to pretend to suppress it on the level of the world, just distinguish your essence. For this reason, you do not need to become an expert in reflecting on it, unless that is part of your occupation in this world, it would be better to focus from your essence where you can remember that you are unity, so to give the transition you would be with the awareness to get out of the dream, leaving this universe in the hands of the Inner Guide. It is true that with personality you do the best you can, there will be someone who does not immute about that, but if you consider that it represents you just remember that in the essence is not you.
This information is not always handled and you do not necessarily find parallels, perhaps because it corresponds to a mental-emotional symbol in the world. Basically the child is associated with an emotional aspect, it connects with the heart in a customary symbolic sense, where emotions originate from love or fear in the context of the experience. It is that child before your puberty (12 years old or younger) who takes care of your survival, associates you with this experience, being susceptible to the impulsive has openness to pleasure and desire, is wonderful and lets flow inspiration and creativity, is influenced by personality. When you observe how your mood changes in the face of something, you could identify that child self that is still there, in some it is very evident from the perspective of another. If we are talking about mental healing being possible, for practical purposes it may be necessary to consider how that child feels.
In UCDM, in lesson 182 of the exercise text, we find, for example, that it speaks of a child who is longing for heaven and connected to the highest, recognizing that he is a stranger to the world and its innocence. Instead of being seen as a mechanism to support the experience of the world, this Child is shown very connected to heaven, in my words, as that Christ-like aspect (perhaps inner child but in capital letters and at another level).
In a primary context, it would be the first part that decides to separate itself from the unified of God by finding itself in the dream or game of this universe. Being an ambiguous term can be resembled in this respect to Higher Mind or Soul in capital letters. Then, considering the universe of duality or separation, an accumulation of experiences known as akashic registers would take place. As for the individual soul, it knows where you’re going in the world of duality and validates your life lessons, so it is also updated or built with the experiences.
In some cases or moments, the soul does not always seem to be resolved, finding some contribution in the current experience. Perhaps it can be seen as the player of the game, although this could be relative if one considers the frame of reference of separation. After all, its context is located in this universe since it does not represent perfect unity without forms or opposites, nor entities. Who likes technology or organization can understand that it behaves like a historical archive about your experiences. At some point I have referred to this soul as essence, mind, or a focal point of divinity which is considered in the illusory world to be experienced as something individual.
Being in the unit. It is everything now. It already has everything. The Spirit of filiation, which expands at the Source. If you suppose as many would be speaking then at a different level of unity or still subject to a collective unconscious, as a synonym of primary soul. Since there are already many who use this concept, not as perfect unity, it would have to be made clear that in that order it would still be within the dream or the Consciousness.
Referring to a rather supreme point, it is true that when the soul is not resolved, or you yourself in the middle of the world, you find here the most resolute aspect. If you visualize it in an abstract way it escapes the analogy of the game, perhaps if it is applied to a dream, it would correspond to the dreamer, but the exercise of having an idea or talking about the Higher Self has nothing to do with experiencing it because in essence you are yourself, this is just an appreciation trying to understand it.
For example, if it is said that you are the drop of seawater and the sea itself at the same time, it could illustrate something of this universe but in the end you are not a sea that shakes and calms down, so you would not be that sea. It could be that what seems to happen is a memory of a dream that has already been dreamed, an universe that has already disappeared, you are just rectifying or recounting some things about it, such as a therapy to heal a trauma on a different plane, that with respect to the dream is the real one. This is why we can say: “God is, nothing more”.
If you consider that Life has its own wisdom, then you have observed and perhaps validated that you have a Guide or Therapist per Excellence. We can visualize it in Unity as that Voice that speaks to us beyond the dream. If a distinction is made with the Higher Mind it would be to refer to a straight Mind that is also not of this world but is not submerged in the world, therefore it influences and orients as a reliable therapist. Many times I have mentioned it as the Interior Guide, although these are simply expressions from a symbolic language that we need as we go through this experience. I have heard, from dear friends, the term “Your Inner Angel” that might ultimately refer to the same thing.
This Guide does not see separation but unity, but understands that this is how you experience it for an instant. The term “separation” is used as an idea that would not take place from the perspective of unity, and is reflected in the world of signs in different ways, degrees, frequencies, duality, division, polarity, gender, diversity, race, characters, etc. Separation is the basis of the thought system of this universe, many call it “ego”, but that term turns out to be ambiguous if it is applied only to one individual, when it is being indicated that it is beyond the individual being the one who projects them multiplied, adding fear and guilt as opposed to love and innocence.
Perhaps someone would argue that The Therapist treats A Being who, in the face of confusion, sees himself as multiple characters. I have called the individual perspective the focal point of divinity, that divine aspect, essence or mind. From this individual perspective, there would also be a correction that might be experienced as an integration, but the Terpeuta par Excelencia knows that no separation has ever taken place since there is only Unity. Thus, any integration may be a mechanism in the universe we know but it would also be part of the illusion, only some illusions are necessary for the purpose of Spirit. In the end it is a matter of dissipating the memories of a dream that therefore had no incidence on the Real, never altered the plane of the original Mind or Source itself.
“A Course In Miracles” symbolically uses the term Holy Spirit to approach and illustrate this aspect of Unity whose mind is straight and gives us the vision of His system of thought. Although this therapist understands, uses or interprets a world of signs, only recognizes as true what Is in Unity, the Real. And I believe that He invites us to look at things in a different way, from His Vision, to His system of thinking about this world and your truth.
It is possible that you may come to validate in your life that some pain or suffering in the body, being a reflection of emotions, resistances or burdens of guilt unconscious, may disappear at some point. Until now I have not devoted myself to studying biology, but I have identified that some illnesses may be related to a recurrent trauma or situation, and it is something that can be analyzed by the person without condemnatory judgment. When you change your way of seeing things in certain situations you will see that you suddenly improve and heal.
To say this lightly or without a context to apply it to a particular person might be foolish and disrespectful, considering that there may be cases of fate such as some biological agents that require validation with a professional. Otherwise, it would be enough to forgive you, accept or let go, that is what I seek to convey and nothing else since I have not devoted myself to delve into issues that do not feel that correspond to me today, only that I notice considerable aspects and there will be who deals as a therapist or doctor.
We can consider also what is called the placebo effect, which consists of giving something that supposedly helps the person when it is neutral or has nothing to do with a medicine that treats the disease. In this case the medications may still be necessary, it is not a question of confusing the mental levels with the physical, although the causes are at the mental level can influence the power of the faith you apply to it to heal. However, it is the mind that has that power and a therapist with this approach recognizes this and knows that the patient has the power to heal himself. Participating in the unit, it gives credit to the patient’s mind to access the power to heal itself. Perhaps the patient believes in a Higher Self or God and can be used as a symbol for a moment, but the good therapist recognizes the patient’s truth for himself, even if that patient does not perceive it at this level, from the unity that connection can be found.
Of course, this type of therapist can also be considered a healer, but he cannot heal those who close the door to their inner truth or miracle. On the other hand, it is common in the world to find unhealed healers and they are often unaware of the metaphysical approach, that the patient is ultimately his or her own doctor and can choose the cure.
We have already spoken about metaphysical forgiveness, corresponding to a different plane than the physical one, it would be understood here as acquiring a certain consciousness where you are freeing yourself from guilt and the emotions generated by these, which surely have taken place due to an erroneous perception, so it requires a correction in the way of seeing things or simply forgive the situation or forgive you. On some occasions when I have evidenced the need for emotional adjustment, I may remember to talk to my inner child, as well as using some technique.
However, for the forgiveness mentioned above there is a Guide at that other level in whom you can trust what is given to forgiveness to heal at the level of causes. Since there is an identity problem at the cosmic level and it has been forgotten that in essence we participate in Oneness, we do not know for sure what is being corrected at that level.
The liberation from illness is similar to the liberation from guilt, in that sense it must be accepted that the body is insignificant and that illness has nothing to do with the body. Somewhere in the mind the decision has been made to be sick. Regarding illness and guilt, the course says: “both are one and the same thing”.
Leaving aside any expectation of healing, especially diseases, or miracles of intention at the level of form, it is possible to open a miracle that corresponds to a change of mentality, where everyone can testify through their own journey gradually appreciating that you can be a carrier of miracles in your life reflected on occasions in those around you.
Since it is important that everyone does their part or individual process, and although it is not for everyone, I have tried to prepare an opening context to A Course in Miracles (ACIM), and it is precisely a course that is taken without being an imposition, so I see no need to talk about its details, I only make you an invitation if something awakens in you for you to take the course yourself.
This is how we came to the end of this journey. I hope that the frame of reference raised for issues such as mind, karma, reincarnation, beliefs, desires, effort, duality, resistance, sickness, the world, love, among others, have a new way of seeing themselves that clarifies some understanding in what corresponds to your life and encourages you, if need be, to exercise your mind with greater openness. I thank you for having accompanied me to this point and I wish you Light and the best in your own undertaking of inner self-discovery.
