Releasing the Victim Mentality and Reorganizing Around Love

Kuan Yin’s Intuitive Learning Game for Change

Kuan Yin Simplicity Game

The key to remaining positive in very negative times is to remember the bottom line – that you are a being of love. Sometimes we forget and allow the prevailing patterns of fear or hatred to influence us. One of the main ways that this happens is through confusion.

Did you know that a person who is stuck in confusion is probably under the influence of karmic patterns of abuse? Some of them are about individual karma, however, most of these patterns are collective. In other words, we are all affected by them in one way or another. The game below is made up of Intuitive Learning Circles and is intended to help you disentangle yourself from some of those collective ties. Simply go through the game by answering pertinent questions that will activate your heart wisdom and give you a new perspective.


Shifting Negative Collective Patterns Into Positive Relationships

The question that Kuan Yin would like you to consider as you play the game is:

“In what aspect of my life am I experiencing confusion or fear?”

Use the answer that comes to you as the basis for the game so that you can disengage from the confusion and release your fears very quickly. If there is more than one situation causing you to be angry or fearful, go ahead and play the game again specifically for each situation.

The best way to stop abuse and the victim mentality is to stop feeding it, and that is exactly what this game will help you to do.

How to Play:

Simply look at the images and circles below while you ponder the statements or questions that go with them. Looking at the symbols will help you to go within and access new energy and clarity. What you do with the information you come up with is up to you!

1. To begin, look at this symbol and repeat to yourself several times:

“I am ready, willing and able to shift my perception from negative to positive.”

2. While looking at this circle, think of an aspect of your life that is troubling you. Ask your heart:

“What doesn’t seem right about my current relationship with other people?” or “When is it that I feel abused?”

3. Notice how this situation agitates you. Breathe a few times and allow this circle to calm you down and help you to see more clearly.

4. Use this circle to really tune into your heart. You can do this by focusing your attention on your actual, physical heart. Once you feel a connection, ask for help from your Soul resources.

5. Use this symbol to help you dissolve any feelings of agitation, anger, or fear that you might be feeling right now. You can imagine those negative feelings as black smoke that dissipates into a clear blue sky.

6. What are you afraid might happen? Make a list so that you can get it out of your mind and see it on a piece of paper. Be sure to take your time with this.

7. Imagine that you are in a room where everyone is fighting and throwing curses at each other. Use this symbol to dissolve the scene in your mind completely.

8. Do you have any feelings that you are at fault at all? Is there a part of you that thinks that other people want to hurt you?

9. If so, imagine that you are in a courtroom, complete with judge, jury and executioner. Use this symbol to completely dissolve the scene.

10. Do you feel as though someone or something is manipulating you or trying to make you do something that you don’t want to do?

11. If so, isn’t it time that you stopped buying into the fear? Use this symbol to dissolve any conscious or unconscious contract you may have to buy into fear, anger and abuse. Imagine there is a whole stack of them and that they are simply being reduced to ashes by fire.

12. Finally, make a firm decision that you are done with this abuse. With this symbol, clearly see the door that leads to this confusing and painful place closing forever.

Congratulations! Now that the door has been closed, take some time to rest and nurture yourself. Take a walk or spend time in nature. Be prepared to allow yourself to receive the blessings that come from leaving the past behind.

Sacred Cow Tipping – The Hidden Cost of War

Large Sacred CowCreating a Tipping Point for Economic Prosperity

There are many good reasons why people have difficulty changing direction and some of them have to do with our Sacred Cows.

The majority of these unconscious agreements are held in place by trauma.

By far, the biggest cause of trauma is war and the members of the old guard that perpetuate it. That’s why today’s Sacred Cows are:

“Treat people like commodities; use them up and then throw them away.”

And

“Only weak people experience post-traumatic stress.”

What is Post Traumatic Stress?

Warlike Energies

Personally, I have suffered from many of the symptoms of post traumatic stress for most of my life:

  • Feeling fear about the future
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Frequent boughts of insomnia or nightmares
  • Feelings of guilt or helplessness
  • Uncontrollable crying
  • Flashbacks
  • Shock and overwhelm.

As a child, I had a horrible time getting along with others and school was a major struggle. I grew up with constant panic attacks and seemed to get myself in trouble no matter what I did.

It wasn’t until my mid-thirties that I realized my behavior was not due to just being a bad person as I was often told. I had reasons for my apparent lack of control, and they were good ones. My father was a navigator in the Army Air Corps during World War II and the Korean War and had participated in countless bombing missions. When he came home, the U. S. Military gave him a couple of weeks R&R in the Carribean – no counseling and no opportunity to decompress from the horrors of war.

Needless to say, he was not ready to return and take up the role of “Father Knows Best”, the popular TV show of the time. He was moody, given to rages, migraines and had no patience for small children. I lived my preschool years in absolute fear of him and as a young adult, I rebelled and went out of my way to hurt him. It wasn’t until I was 44 and he was dying of cancer that I understood where the violence had come from; what had happened to our family and what was really responsible for it.

Before he passed away, my father shared his deep regret and guilt about killing so many people. The pain and remorse that he had been holding in was eating up his body and palpable on his face as he recounted wartime experiences that both humbled and horrified me at the same time.

I literally watched him go yellow and break out into a cold sweat while he detoxed a drug the military had given him in place of quinine as a “treatment” for malaria. Evidently the drug did nothing whatsoever to protect him or the thousands of other soldiers who took it from malaria, it was only intended to keep them on their feet no matter what. No wonder he turned into a workaholic and could never relax. The mass use of that drug may explain a lot about the health problems of many men of his generation – heart attacks, stoicism, emotional inaccessability, workaholism, alcolholism, not to mention cancer.

In his death, my father taught me something very important about post traumatic stress. He had spent his whole life running away from it, yet when he realized his time was running out, he began to accept what had happened and how frightened he had been. By providing him with a safe and loving place to talk, he was able to let it go emotionally, spiritually and physically. I know that by the time he passed away, he had made his peace with me and more importantly, with himself.

With him as an inspiration, I sought after a form of treatment that might be instrumental in breaking the cycle of war, abuse, learning disabilities and chronic health problems, and that is how the circles we use in our Tipping game came to be.

This set of Sacred Cows will not tip on their own. Please join me in playing this game.

Tips for Preventing Post-traumatic Stress #1

Friday, August 3rd, 2007

The best way to deal with long-term symptoms of post-traumatic stress is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Obviously, one never knows when something traumatic might occur or where, however, there are ways of handling the situation once it has happened that can significantly reduce a person’s susceptibility to long-term feelings of hopelessness and alienation.

If you or someone you know has just been through a traumatic event, the best time to take steps to prevent PTSD is as soon as possible.

1. Combine encouragement with time to process the event.

The importance of combining positive input while realistically processing what has happened is an interesting balance. The key here is to “talk about it, but don’t dwell on it.” That way the patterns of shock, fear and hopelessness are dispelled before they get a chance to become habitual.

Formula # 2 in Soul Oriented Solutions offers one way to help those who have been overwhelmed by recent events by going through a process that will help to calm them down and focus in on what would genuinely help them.
