Spirit
It is spirit that animates matter. In other words it is your
Being or your Atman which ultimately animates your body.
That spirit that animates your body is an endless source of
energy. It streams through you giving you life. It is not matter. It is energy
that can not get sick, turn sour, get old, atrophy, become corrupt etc. etc.
We can trust that that force of life will always be there
animating our body and our consciousness.
Just look at your hands and feel the warmth, the life streaming
out of the palm of your hands. This is that life, that vitality and energy of
life streaming though us.
That is our gift of life coming to us from somewhere by
virtue of some factor, and when it is its time it will leave (death). But right
now it is there radiating splendidly.
Holds Us Up and Fights to survive
That force of life is there always to hold us up. That is its
nature, it is natural for it to be like a spring, like a fountain of life
giving water, always flowing upwards. This is its nature and it will always be like
that, we can trust in that.
The ego is there and what it does, is block that flowing
upwards of life, that holds up our body and psychology. It also acts to drag down our body and psychology, making us feel unwell and darkening our thoughts
and feelings, imprisoning them in narrow jail cells.
Relax
If we are to relax and just know that it is the egos of fear,
anxiety, self-compassion that pull down and block that bubbling of
life in us, that also animates our body and consciousness, then we can take a new
step. Which is a step of trust.
We allow those egos space and manifestation in us, because we
don’t fully trust in that bubbling of life force and consciousness. We think it
won’t be there, or it is not the answer or it is not good enough or will not protect
and help us in difficult times etc. Though it never leaves us, it is the only
thing that can really help us, it is what allows us positive emotion and it is
what by helping us also protects us.
Trust
Trust that force of life in you, trust that it will help you
and protect you and allow you the energy and intelligence to solve your
difficulties and give you the strength to perservete through them.
As master Samael says, the flesh is weak but the spirit is
strong. It is this life force that is strong and it is the body that falters.
End (2394).
