Ascension Through Duality

I guess I should explain what I meant by titling my blog as such...

We are and have been in a cycle of ascension for many years now.  We are moving out of this current density of the third dimension (3D) to the next, lighter more refined density.  In order to do that, we must overcome our sense of duality and learn to perceive things as they are.  Let's just say, that is the task/choice when coming here.  I chose to do it this way.  I don't believe it is completely necessary for everyone to have to do this.  Everyone is going to ascend, one way or another. Some will do it without their bodies and some with.  I chose to take my body with me.  There are people that will argue this with me; however, based on the sources I have been following for years, I know this is possible.

So for me, it is going through duality and seeing it for what it is; a tool of perception.  I have overcome it.  I have become the observer of myself and all around me.  I got control of "The Judge" in me (one of the archetypes of the ego) and now its job, instead of overreaching in calling everything good or bad, right or wrong, I use it only for myself; to DISCERN whether something is going to work for ME or not.  That is the proper use of this archetype.  The observer sees from a neutral perspective; not attaching "right" or "wrong" to anything.  Discernment is  exaggerated when it becomes "judgment".

I remember the exact moment that this happened for me.  It was Thanksgiving Day in 2012 and I was living with my BF and her partner.   They lived in a house owned by the Unitarian Universalists; a non-denominational religious group and they took care of the house and lived in it.  They had church services there every Sunday.  My BF was hosting Thanksgiving Day at the house that year.  I had to go outside for a walk because I don't do well in groups generally speaking anyway and I was tired of the meaningless conversations and awkwardness of being there.  

 

I was walking down the road, smoking some pot and it suddenly "hit" me that I could just keep walking, never go back and everything would be fine!  What an eye opener that was!  Much later on, I figured out that my attachment to ANYTHING or ONE had dissolved!  I discovered this over a few days because I just had no "cares" about stuff!  I discovered I could still MAKE attachments, but I could also dissolve them rather quickly.

 

Not only are we going through duality from one "level" to another but we are also going through the experience of duality to transcend it. 😊👏💓

 

UPDATE:  As I re-read this, I see that it's not really clear what I'm talking about with regard to the walk I took and feeling like I could just keep going and it would all be OK. The attachment to seeing things as "right" or "wrong", "good" or "bad" had dissolved and that's what I became aware of.  That's what was UNDERNEATH this knowing that I would be OK (everything would work out for me if I never went back) because there was no longer a duality... everything as it is, IS JUST FINE and perfect the way it is.  It was the feeling of certainty and the knowing that solidified my trust that the Universe would support me because I was no longer "labeling" things from a state of duality.  In that sense, I would no longer see my experience as "good" or "bad".  It makes it easier to glide through the experience and glean from it what I needed to without resistance.  It's in our resistance to what we judge as "bad" that keeps us in a lower vibrational state of being.  We're unable to see that everything that we experience is there for a reason... sometimes we need to let go of what is not serving us even when we can't recognize that and the Universe will sometimes "take away" something (and we resist) only to leave us open to receiving something "better" or of a higher vibration and our resistance keeps us from receiving.  

I hope that helps! 

More on the Ascension

Ascension means to rise above.  For us it means the end of duality.  On August 1, 2004. I distinctly got the impression that humanity was given a choice.  It was time to get off the fence and choose the path of light or path of dark.  There is no "wrong" choice.  At the time I did not realize that this choice had come from our planet Earth.  For it is the Earth that has decided to ascend.  Being as we live here, and we are her caregivers, we must make the choice to either ascend or stay in the physical realm.  It really comes down to what you're ready for.

I know I'm ready to leave the physical realm.  Our process of ascension will take us from the third dimension to the fifth.  The Fifth dimension is where everything manifests from.  As soon as you decide you want something, it is there in the fifth dimension.  We must learn how to use the Laws of Creation consciously as part of the Ascension process.  We were not meant to stay in the loop of reincarnation for ever!  There are powers that be that have slowed our evolution on purpose.  I will not get into that right now, as that is a " conspiracy theory".  The Ascension process is simple.  Just do your best to raise your vibration or frequency and keep it high.  Some of the things I have done and to do are: eat organic food; as much raw food as possible, cleanse my body using a negative ion foot bath, avoid people with a negative mindsets and "control freaks", spend time in nature, continually work on improving myself, avoid sugar, listen to music and stop watching TV.  I recently got rid of my TV.  TVs, especially the older ones, emit positive ions and negative frequencies, neither of which are good for you.

An important thing to remember is to use your feelings to determine what is good for you and what is not.  When it comes to music, how does it make you feel?  Does it make you feel alive, happy and uplifted?  Or does it make you feel anxious and depressed?  Duality is about experiencing more of who you are through contrast; good, bad, right, wrong, black, white etc. etc.  We cannot determine what is good or bad, right or wrong for someone else.  We can only do it for ourselves.  That is why our justice system does not work.  We should just let karma do its job!  Of course there are areas of "agreement" that we all have.  Our justice system is loosely based on that.  Anyway, I don't want to get into all of that.  That is not what I'm here to discuss.  The point is to create a world that works and is the best for all concerned in the only way to do that is to become aware of the Laws of Creation and to use them intentionally.  And just so you know, we are always using the Laws of Creation, just not intentionally.  They are Universal Laws that are always working!  It's just like gravity.  It has always been there, and it didn't just start working because Newton discovered it!   This is no different.  Remember, the world used to be flat.  That's enough for now, I will continue tomorrow.

In love and light, Riox

My purpose

So I have come to realize that it's not so much my purpose to teach ascension as it is to teach the Laws of Creation. I was reminded not to long ago that I should only teach what I have experience with. 

 I have experience with using the Laws of Creation consciously. That is how I got to Hawaii. I will still talk about Ascension, but learning the Laws of Creation is very important right now, if one is to ascend. Actually, the Laws of Creation and ascension go hand-in-hand. 

So lets start at the beginning. First and foremost, we are Creators. We are all higher dimensional beings who have chosen to drop down into the lower vibrations of the physical dimension to experience more of who we are through the experience of duality or contrast. Few of us, if any remember planning out this lifetime that we are now in. We mapped out all of the experiences that we wanted to have ahead of time, leaving room for free choice. We also chose helpers or guides to accompany us on this lifetime's adventure. Then we also chose to forget what we mapped out and what we wanted to experience because what would be the point of remembering? Living in this 3-D. Physical dimension is solely for the purpose of experiencing more of who we really are from experience of duality. Most of us accomplish that by making choices in ignorance of the Laws of Creation. In other words, we make a mistake by choosing something that we don't want. And in that experience of choosing and realizing that it's something that we don't want, we are meant to turn around and look in the other direction and say,"Oh, what I want must be in the other direction." More often than not, instead of looking in the other direction for what we want, we get mired in our problem of having something that we don't want. I myself am guilty of that!  

I will do my best to educate you about the Laws of Creation from my own experience. So let me tell you how I got to Hawaii. It actually started back when I first started working for the chiropractor Daniel Knowles. Right before I started working for the Knowles, I was working at a gas station. I knew it was a temporary job, but it wasn't until I started receiving chiropractic care and going to the office that I decided I wanted to work for Danny and Richelle. 

The energy, going into the office, was so lovely that I wanted to work there. I started Care in August of 2007, and by middle of December that year I was working for them. That was really my first experience of using The Laws of Creation, but it wasn't a good enough example that I could do it again. I needed to learn more information about the Laws of Creation. 

The source I found to be the best for me to learn about the Laws of Creation came from Abraham channeled by Esther Hicks, written by Jerry Hicks. Some how I get on an e-mail list for Jennifer McLean. she is one of many spiritual teachers that has information to share. She did an interview series called Healing with the Masters. I didn't get to listen to them all, but some of them are very good. She also passed on a link to enter an essay contest to win a house in Hawaii. I entered the contest. For $101, you can write a 101 word essay to enter to win the House. after entering the contest, I was also invited to enter to win a free weekend at their "Castle". The castle is a bed-and-breakfast where Sherry and her husband John live. John is the man who built the house they are giving way and who also built the castle. 

Unfortunately, they ran out of money to finish building the castle. The outside is done, but the rooms need to be finished. Anyway, if you invite others to enter to win, and they use your e-mail address as a referral, you get entered again. Well Jennifer had e-mailed this to her entire e-mail list, so she won the free weekend! So Jennifer decided to offer a workshop while she was in Hawaii. When I got the first e-mail telling me about it I pretty much ignored it. My first thought was, "Well, I probably can't afford the cost of her workshop and how the hell would I get to Hawaii?" 

I pretty much forgot about the workshop. So couple of weeks went by, and I got another e-mail. This one read, "last chance to hang out with me in Hawaii." For some reason, I paid more attention to this one and I opened it up. And when I found out she was only charging $87 for her workshop I got real excited! I started thinking how great it would be to go to Hawaii for a few days. Her workshop was a one-day intensive on removing blocks to abundance. It was pretty much what I had been asking my guidance for help with. 

I knew that if I was going to get there, I had to use the Laws of Creation consciously. I paid attention to the excitement that I felt about going to Hawaii. At the time, I was unaware that I was going to have to make a choice between going to Hawaii and going to see my daughter for her high school graduation. I just knew that I had to get to Hawaii. I wasn't sure why, but once I was there, I knew that it was time for me to start teaching. I had two weeks from the time that decided to go to Hawaii, until I left. I knew from reading Abraham's books that I needed to let go of the "how". 

Since this was the first time that I was consciously using the Laws of Creation, I was a little bit nervous. I also knew that any doubts or fear that I had would stop my manifestation in its tracks. So I did my best to think of how wonderful it would be to be in Hawaii. And I hung on to that feeling. I told everybody I knew that I was going to Hawaii with one exception. I did not tell one person, specifically that I know of, that I was going because I knew she would immediately questioned how I was getting there. What money? Isn't that expensive? I didn't want to have to explain myself to someone who doesn't understand the Laws of Creation what I was doing to get there.  Basically, what I did was: I kept my energy high by thinking about how wonderful it would be to be there and maintaining that good feeling that I had. I did something every day to move myself in the direction of going to Hawaii. I would go online and check air fare prices, or I would talk to a friend, who traveled a lot to get their advice about buying tickets. I did different things, small actions every day, that helped me manifest my trip to Hawaii. 

The one instance I can recall where I tried to make something happen was when I rented my car before I bought my airline ticket. I ended up paying more at the end, because I did not have an accurate time of when to pick up and drop off my car. During the two weeks before I left for Hawaii, I saw the doors opened for me to go on this trip. My trip had to fit within my budget. After searching online for a place to stay, I remember telling a friend that I was having a difficult time finding a place to stay that was fitting within my budget. He gave me the name of a friend that he knew in Hawaii, and his phone number. He did not tell me where I was calling. It turned out he gave me the number of a place called Pangaia on the Big Island. They are a raw, sustainable community very near the eastern most point of big Island. I called them and told them my situation. They offered me a tent for $20 a night. I was very happy with that! $20 a night would fit within my budget, and I was willing to camp while I was there. 

In communicating with them, they offered me an upgrade. I could have the guest hut for little bit more. I wrote back saying that I would be happy with the tent for $20 a night. And that I would wait until I got there to see if I could afford more. When I got there, they had all the agreed as a group to let me have the guest hut since it wasn't being used for the same $20 a night I would've paid for the tent. I was ecstatic! I realized in the moment that the universe had provided me with better than I could dreamed of myself! That is what happens when we allow the universe to provide what we have asked for, without worrying about how. 

Basically, I followed the principals of the Laws of Creation CONSCIOUSLY. We have all followed the principals but usually UNCONSCIOUSLY. 

(December 2020)  I ended up staying there for 3 months until the land sold... it turned into a 5.5 year stay!  

Duality

Yesterday, I went to the movies with a friend. We saw 2 movies. The first was "The Last Mimzy" which I highly recommend and the second was "Reign Over Me". At the end of "Reign Over Me", my friend and I started discussing what we liked and what we didn't like about the movie. Without ruining the movie for anyone and to make a long story short, Adam Sandler's character, Charlie, was a victim of losing his family. He remained a victim because the fear of facing his pain kept him from moving through the grieving process and he remained stuck in anger. I want to make something perfectly clear here. I am not perfect and I have been a victim. What I am about to say, I say from experience and I don't pretend to have ALL the answers. There are many reasons why people become victims but it is not necessary to remain a victim. EVERYTHING IS A CHOICE. Charlie remained a victim until he chose to admit he needed help. That's very hard for a lot of people to do-admit they need help. It's OK to need help. We are not here to do everything ourselves. It is a blessing to have people around us who are willing and able to help us when we need it. The key is to not become dependent on help from the outside. It is the choice we make to become responsible(able to respond to our own needs)that frees us from victim hood. Living in fear of what we are told might happen or what the consequences will be if we tell on someone are what keep us in victim consciousness. Any kind of fear will do that. People live with some kind of fear everyday. It can be very simple as being afraid of running out of gas or something as profound and being told that we would be killed if we tell someone that we have been raped. Taking responsibility is the key to ending victim consciousness. OK, this is going to be a little hard to swallow and this is what my friend and I argued about. Choices made out of fear are what put us on the path to victim consciousness. It the housewife who gets beaten by her husband everyday because she is afraid to leave him. Her fear is that she won't be able to take care of herself or what will happen to him or a myriad of other things. It doesn't matter what the excuse is, it's a choice made in fear. It isn't until she makes the choice out of love for herself to take responsibility for the choices that she has made that have put her in this position, that she will create a new consciousness for herself. No, she did not choose to be a victim directly. No one says, "I want to be a victim". It's done unconsciously out of fear. There is always some kind of awareness that is present that opens the door for people to change their minds. To choose NOT to be a victim anymore. Choices made in love are the ones that propel us down the path of responsibility and empowerment. It's a choice made in love of oneself. Here's one of my experiences of being a victim. A few years ago, a friend and I got into an argument about him smoking pot. He was on probation and passing his UA's by taping a bag of someone else's pee onto his body and then using that for the cup. I did not agree with what he was doing and I told him that I wasn't going to help him do it anymore. I also at the point, wanted him out of my house because I couldn't stand living with him anymore. I told him I wanted him to leave and he refused. He told me I was the one who would have to move. I threatened to expose him to his probation officer and tell her everything that he had been doing. I knew exactly what I was doing but what I didn't count on was how he would react.   I ended up on the floor of the kitchen with him banging my head against the floor. This happened on a Thursday. On Friday, he apologized to me but I understood that I could not let this happen again. (This is not the first time something like this had happened and it had gotten worse every time). For the next 3 days, I talked with trusted friends and family about what to do, knowing that if I went to the police, he would go to jail. On Monday morning, I made the choice to tell the police about our altercation. I did this out of love for both of us. In love of myself because I would not accept being victimized and in love of him because I recognized and understood his fears that caused him to make the choice to hurt me. I also recognized his inability to channel his anger appropriately that allowed him to "snap" and do what he did. He is not normally this way and I know that. I know that the choice I made to threaten him with his probation officer was in fear of him continuing to live with us or having to move myself and is why I became a victim of his anger. I also know that his choice to hurt me was made in fear of what the consequences would be if I said anything is what made him a victim of the judicial system. It took us over a year to get through that and I immediately took responsibility for what I had done that sent him to jail. He was not so willing to accept responsibility for what he did. I told him, everything is a choice. You either make a choice out of fear, which will ultimately lead you down the path of victimization or you make the choice out of love and follow the path of responsibility (having the ability to respond to your own needs). Eventually his did accept his responsibility for his half of our altercation. But this person has always had a problem accepting responsibility for anything. He does not understand that accepting responsibility is empowering. He understands it as having to work and he doesn't like to work. Being responsible means being able to respond to your own needs and owning what is yours. Since that time, he has had some anger management classes which he was not given a choice to comply with and he admits it helped him. He is also living back here with us but he is actually helping with the rent and things around the house. I know that another situation like that will not ever happen again. Not only because he has new tools to work with in managing his anger but because I was offered a weekend self defense course that I took. I made the choice in love of myself that I did not want to remain a victim to take responsibility for my own defense and learn how to defend myself. It was very empowering indeed! I am no longer afraid that someone will be able to take advantage of me because I have new knowledge of how to take care of myself and I know how to use it! Knowledge by itself in not power, applied knowledge is power. And it's not about having power over someone else. That is an illusion. No one has power over you unless you allow them to. All you have to do is respond with NO! It occurs to me that someone could say that I made the choice to take the self defense class out of fear of being hurt again. This is where it can be confusing to people. The are only two choices. One choice will empower you, the other will empower someone else. The one made in love will empower you, the one made in fear will empower someone else who may victimize you in the future. My choice was made in love of myself to empower me and refuse to be a victim. Had I not made the choice to do that, I would have made no choice and maybe allowed someone to victimize me in the future. Choosing not to do something is still a choice. That is often the case for most people and the underlying fear is moving out of the comfort zone they have created for themselves. So, here we are again on the same but different path to try once again to accept each other as we are and to live in harmony with each other. Something changed because it's working. It still don't have the desire to have a romantic relationship with him for other reasons (mostly his lack of responsibility) but I am able to accept him the way he is and we compromise on the housework and rent. He also knows that him living here is just temporary until he can get his feet under him. I don't toot my own horn but I am very happy with the changes that I see in my life and his. It is something to be proud of when you can look at the past and see where you have been and then look at where you are now and realize that changes that have taken place for the better! I am realizing some other recent wonderful changes in my life also but that is another blog. So this is some simple advice, when you have a choice, think about where your thoughts are coming from. Are they coming from fear or love? It isn't always easy to recognize. Our egos have a way of making us think that what we decide is from love. You must think about the consequences of either choice. Which one will empower you and which one will cause you to be a victim. Being a victim can come from a simple choice. So can empowerment. And remember choosing to do nothing is still a choice and more than likely is the one that will NOT empower YOU. I love all of you and it is my wish that people bring more consciousness to their choices. It's only a few seconds of contemplation between being a victim or not. This is an add: We are the creators of our lives. Things don't happen to us. They happen because of the (un)conscious choices we have made. This is hard for most people to accept when they don't get what they want because they don't see how their (un)conscious choice was made in fear. By bringing more awareness to your choices, you are responding to yourself and consequently, you will more likely make a choice from love. It is the Law of Attraction at work. What you think about, you bring about. It is irrefutable. The time is now to respond to yourself, love yourself and do what is best for YOU! Getting out of your comfort zone will not kill you, it will show you a different path, one that will ultimately empower you. Everyday you wait is another day lived in some kind of fear. Do not wait for something to come from the outside! You have the power within you to create what it is you want most, NOW. IN LOVE, Riox
