Experience Soul Personality Integration

This article is a continuation of my ongoing series on Soul Consciousness, blended with my ongoing series on Love, and the Angels.

This blending of my Soul with the Angels occurs as a simultaneous act of invocation and evocation. In so doing I open my life to the fulfillment and furtherance of a great plan that is held in the mind of God. You can do the same by reading this next affirmational section aloud.

SOUL INTEGRATION AFFIRMATION

I acknowledge that the Saints, the Hierarchy and those who have served humanity to bring about the manifestation of this Divine Plan, guide and direct me as I put aside my personal will.

As I remain aligned and surrender to Divine Will, I realize that my joy, my bliss, and my fulfillment are found in that surrender.

Each and every time that I can harness even the smallest glimpse of Divine Will, I learn to Love, and I am continuously strengthened and supported by whatever resources I need.

Today, I call upon my Spiritual Inner Plane Guides, my Angels, and the Christ, to provide help and assistance in my life that I may fulfill my life destiny and purpose to manifest God’s Will for my Highest Good and the Highest Good of All.

I surrender to and invoke the wisdom of my Soul as I place my Soul in control. I do this to learn the lessons of Love and to teach others the transforming empowerment of Love.

As I sacrifice my little will and align my life and purpose with Divine Will, I assert and affirm that: “Purpose Itself Am I.”

To manifest this awareness in my physical reality: “Two Minds Unite.”

The Light of the Soul Descends — Soul Light Descending

And to let “The Highest Light Control.”

To do this, I must “See the Greatest Light.”

As this Soul Light descends, it permeates my entire body as I ponder these words of power.

Love is my lantern! Through Love, I can align in full faith and confidence knowing that Divine Will and Wisdom has a purpose and plan that is beyond what I can see from the vision of my individuated self. As I surrender to that Divine Will and Wisdom, I can relax and release all of the mundane needs that have burdened my life.

Through my open connection to my Soul, the Heavenly Hosts are available to provide the healing that those I encounter in my life so desperately need. Through my surrender to Divine Will for the Highest Good of All, I am assured that I will do no harm through the unintended consequences of my personal ego or desire nature.

To walk this path of dual consciousness and awareness requires vigilance.

This walk in life with a human body, buffeted with needs and desires is a new kind of human being, a new kind of Soul consciousness that is just emerging in the human experience. To let your Soul be in control, while still walking in the world of sorrows is a whole new kind of experience in human life.

The human personality, id, and ego sometimes are not easily surrendered to Divine Will. Human glamor’s and illusions spill forth despite best efforts to remain aware of the promptings of your Soul and the guidance that Love provides.

This journey requires Love, and Love changes everything.

Each and every time you can remain open to Divine Love and aligned with and surrendered to Divine Will, you are taking a giant step forward in human evolution.

Each and every time you put your Soul in control you are fulfilling your destiny as the spark of Divine Light that you were created to be.

When you put your Soul in control, you automatically align with Love. You activate your co-creator potential that came from the Creator with the Breath of Life.

When you walk through life as the powerful and amazing being that you truly are, you are thinning the veil between heaven and earth.

You are demonstrating the consciousness of Love. The Angels come to you to support and comfort you.

Your whole perspective changes when you are integrating your Soul with your personality. Harmlessness becomes effortless.

Kindness and compassion flow from your heart as you are moved by the sorrow and suffering of others. You are aware of a unity of Spirit that makes clear your Oneness with all of Life.

SOUL-PERSONALITY INTEGRATION

The resistance you have to surrender and integrate your personality with your Soul is what makes you human. Although simple, it is far from easy to surrender to Divine Love and Divine Will.

The longing you have to be able to remain in a state of Love and aligned with Divine Will speaks to the Presence of your Soul. The nature of your Soul is Love. It is with Love you can open to the wonder and wisdom of your Soul. Ponder on this.

Let my soul smile through my heart
and my heart smile through my eyes.
– Paramahansa Yogananda

The integration of your Soul with your personality is the result of lifetimes of lessons of love and karma. The surrender of personal Will to Divine Will is a lesson learned long ago on the angelic realm and much easier when the illusions, glamor’s, and desires of the world of matter are not factors.

Humanities next significant step forward is to master this dual perspective, this dual consciousness, and then bring it into the world. This is an important step forward in the consciousness of humanity. Is is the evolution of a new kind of human being. One who is in relationship and communion with the Divine.

Imagine, for a moment if you will, just how this world would be different if Love were in control. Imagine, if governments and societies followed the Law of Love. Imagine, if the guidelines for the laws were crafted and passed with the principle of the Highest Good of All.

That would undoubtedly usher in a “Heaven on Earth.” That would fulfill the prophecies of old of “Peace on Earth,” a time when the lion could lie down with the lamb. These prophecies and dreams have fueled all world religions because they are the plan in the mind of the Creator that humanity was created to fulfill.

It takes only a moment of both self-awareness and life awareness to see how far humanity is from manifesting that vision that has been foretold. It is by learning to Love, by bringing you Soul into control and by surrendering your personal Will to Divine Will that the best chance for humanity manifests.

Many of the solutions to life’s challenges are simple. That does not make them easy. Free Will is an essential part of the human experience. The personality, the “lower self” must make the conscious choice to surrender to Divine Will. Without that conscious choice, the choice to choose Love, the choice to put your Soul in control and work with the Angels and the realm of Spirit to harness the world of matter, real enlightenment cannot happen.

By the very word, enlightenment requires bringing Light into the substance of matter. This is the destiny of humanity.

The merging of your Soul, with your completely human body, emotions, personality, and mind is what I have called the “Greatest Merger and Acquisition” ever.

It was to fulfill this blending of Spirit and Matter, Light and Dark, personal Will surrendered to Divine Will, that the human adventure was created. It was to bring Divine Love into manifestation in this world of matter that the struggle of life exists.

Matter, by its very nature, is devoid of Love. Only through humanity learning to Love and surrendering to Love can this dual consciousness of Soul and Personality through the denseness of matter be infused by Love, and the denseness of matter be inspired by Light.

This is the fuel of miracles and the purpose of life. Not just to learn how to Love, but to let Love so fully into your life that the very atomic matter of your being, your heart, lets your mind merge with your Soul, whose nature is Love.

Your human adventure offers you the opportunity to learn and grow until Love is clearly the answer. Surrendering to Love is your path to joy. When surrendering to Love becomes your personal Free Will you automatically align with Divine Will.

When you choose Love,
you are allowing your personality access to
the transforming power of your Soul.
– Genevieve Gerard

Today, I invite you to choose Love and reach for your Soul Consciousness. By making that choice, you have activated your Free Will on a path that brings you into alignment with the teachings and wisdom of your Soul.

When you choose Love, you become an agent of Divine Will here on planet Earth. Each time you choose to give Love, you are winning a victory. Each time you win, access to your Soul consciousness becomes cumulatively easier. Your Soul becomes ever more in control until the Soul, in control, can bring to Light the Love that underlies the happening of the times. Soul personality integration is the destiny and fulfillment of humanity.

Namaste,

Genevieve

The Blessing of Love on All That You Do!

When You Love You Transcend Mere Emotion

Genevieve Gerard

When You Love, You Transcend Mere Emotion

This article is part of my ongoing Series on Love.

Love can heal your life.

Love can transform your life.

And in many ways, love is the most powerful and profound thing that you do in your life adventure.

This refers to the power of Love which is both transformative, and by its very nature takes you into what is Divine. To love is a bond that is eternal and timeless. Love is unlimited by time and not confined by space.

Love is so powerful and profound that it transcends even the tyranny of death. The reason that love has all of this magical and mystical power is that it is much more than an emotion.

It is easy to fail to understand love in the midst of media and movies dramatic fantasies of what it means to love. A lot of misinformation about love is the fuel for stories that are not about love at all, but rather are demonstrations of need and desire. The cycle of attachment, need and desire are all too often described as love. This failure in society to understand the real power of love makes it more challenging to recognize love when you do experience it.

Perhaps, the best way to clarify what love is is to consider that love is much more than emotion. Although when you love someone, you may feel many emotions, these emotions only serve to open your heart and your mind to let you learn how to love.

When you love, you transcend mere emotion and move into an awareness that is more vast and significant than just feeling.
– Genevieve Gerard

Ultimately, love is where you co-exist as a miraculous creation. As a human being, you are a multifaceted and complex being. You have a body but are more than your body. You have emotions, but you are more than what you can feel. You have a mind, but your mind is greater than what you think. And most significantly you are a Soul.

Love is the great synthesizer because Love unifies you into the full mystical expression of your unified self. Love reveals the miracle of a complex being who is simultaneously both physical and Divine.

Love is a great teacher that is so marvelous and powerful that it teaches you to transcend your dual nature as a human being (a physical and material being) who is concurrently imbued with a spark of Divine Light.

Love is the place where you can bridge your eternal self with your mortal physical self. That makes love the most formidable experience in your life’s adventure.

That also makes it possible to merge into your understanding of love a great deal that is not love. This merging and projection is part of why many fear to love. They associate love only with the emotions of “falling in love.” The falling in love experience can be an opportunity to open yourself fully to love. In that experience, your Soul merges with another. That is a blending of being that enables you to celebrate a unity of heart, mind, and Soul.

Although marvelous, loving someone is often threatening and frightening to the separated individualize identity of the self. Sadly, when you are given the opportunity to love it is painful if you cling to your isolated self and project your needs and desires upon the one who is the object of your love. You may then bring away from the experience of trying and failing to love, the erroneous conclusion that “love hurts.”

If you are mature enough and wise enough, you may realize that it was your needs, desires, and attachments that hurt. I ask you to consider this statement and ponder upon what is different about love and your needs and attachments?

Even if you were only able to experience the spiritual transcendence of actually physical emotional for a few moments, consider, in retrospect, that the experience of transcending your needs and desires can be an enlightening one.

Consider, if you will, what you experienced when you let yourself move beyond yourself into the bliss of a unity of Souls. Even if that merger was not destined for your whole lifetime, in that brief transition from there is a powerful life lesson that can teach you about love.

Consider that in those moments that you were able to transcend your sense of isolation and better understand what love is. When you have loved beyond the emotions that led you to touch love, it can be helpful to learn some things about your human anatomy and your spiritual anatomy.

Within this understanding is the awareness of why learning to love is such an influential part of the human experience.

Love is the crowning grace of humanity, the holiest right of the soul, the golden link which binds us to duty and truth, the redeeming principle that chiefly reconciles the heart to life, and is prophetic of eternal good.
– Petrarch

With love, when you love beyond emotion into the very essence of what it means to love you are blending and merging two very different worlds. You, as a human being are a temporal material being. You are born into a material body. Your five senses guide you. You have a physical body that has very specific needs. Among these is: food to eat, shelter from the elements, and water to drink. Along with these requirements are a lot of desires. See my Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs in my “Ways to Relieve Stress” blog post.

A most significant part of your human experience is also emotions. Many of these are vast and drive your life. Your emotions are a dynamic part of your anatomy. Fear, shortage, loss are all powerful motivators. Beyond your physical senses, emotions are one of the most influential parts of your human experience.

Your mind and ability to engage in thought also join this human experience as a controlling aspect of the human experience. What you think, and the very content of your thoughts is a dynamic creative force in your life. Read my “Keys to Harnessing Your Thoughts” blog post for more insights.

These three parts of yourself are then integrated and merged into your personality. Your personality is the integrative force that enables these seemingly diverse parts of your being to function.

This integration of your body, emotions, and mind under the direction of your personality are a vital part of the wholeness of your being.

Your personality is then available to further merge and integrate with the non-material aspects of your consciousness, your Soul. It is with this dynamic and transformative step in your consciousness that the essence of love is finally revealed, not limited to your emotions and thoughts or expectations but in the miracle of the blending of Souls.

It is when, with your personality and physical emotional and mental parts of your nature you are finally able to move outside of the material world and move into the eternal, transcendent and transforming aspects of love, that everything can open and change.

When you love someone, you bridge from the world and limitations of matter into that which is Soul, Eternal, and Divine. You can then leave behind the restrictions and limitations of the material world and open yourself to that which is timeless, and endless.

Love is so much more than emotion; for when you love you transcend the temporal and enter into the eternal.

Love is a miracle that blesses our life. It remains as a living, moving, expanding and contracting life lesson that teaches you how to live in the dual existence as a physical being who lives a span of years and then must return to the dust of matter to consciously blend with the part of your Self that is eternal.

It is when you open your heart and your mind to love that you can transcend the limitations of your human experience and enjoy the world of your Soul which is limitless, endless and beyond both time and space.

Love serves both worlds as a bridge from the finite to the infinite. Love never ends. To touch the eternal with the temporal physical world which does someday end is to have the opportunity to dance into eternity. That you can experience this by learning to love is a miracle.

When you learn to love another no matter which of the many and diverse forms that love offers during your life’s adventure you can create then you form a bond that is eternal and amazing.

Celebrate this miracle of love as many times and in as many ways as you can!

Learning to love is the greatest part of the human experience.
– Genevieve Gerard

Love is the one part of your human material existence that bridges to your spiritual and eternal aspect of yourself.

It teaches you to live in the dual awareness of the physical with the profound awareness of your Soul.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Are You Awakening to the Light?

Genevieve Gerard

Are You Awakening to the Light?

The word awakening is used a great deal among the consciousness community to describe an emerging awareness that is evolving in the world today.

It is for our time in the evolution of humanity the word most often used to describe increased awareness of the spiritual part of yourself, your Higher Self, or Soul.

The word awakening has, in modern times, come to replace the word
enlightenment or illumination. Although the process of awakening, without a doubt, leads to ever increasing enlightened awareness, there is within the concept of awakening some underlying assumptions that I think it would enhance the process of awakening to consider.

The subtle and yet powerful difference in the use of the word awakening instead of the word enlightenment has within it the implication that what you are beginning to understand and what is emerging ever more into your consciousness is more a process of remembering. It implies an acknowledgment of what you already know, more than a process of learning or discovering something new.

If you consider that an integral part of who and what you are is a spiritual being having a physical human experience this all makes perfect sense.

Awakening implies that you are emerging from a dream or illusion, realizing what is real. That concept has within it a myriad of assumptions that are worthy of exploring. Most significant is: what are you awakening to and what are you awakening from?

It seems that the concept of awakening has captured the imagination of many who are reaching for spiritual enlightenment because it gives a hint to a deeper awareness that rings true in the human heart.

As I stated, the idea of awakening implies acknowledging and understanding something that was always known to you.

I like the idea of awakening because it affirms the wisdom of your eternal self (your Higher Self, your Soul) is communicating and revealing a deep truth to your personality self.

The concept that you are a temporal and material being, concurrently with your awareness of your nature as an eternal being is the beginning to the adventure of awakening .
– Genevieve Gerard

Your Dual Nature

Since the dawn of time, the dual nature of the human experience as a physical, emotional, mental being and personality has co-existed in the human consciousness with an internal awareness of the Self as an eternal Soul. This is one of the major aspects of enlightenment. The understanding that I am a material and physical being whose body will ultimately return to dust lies mysteriously beside the deep inner truth of your spiritual Self as an eternal being.

Everything we know is taught to us by God
as He casts His light over the world.
– Saint Augustine

That we are concurrently a physical and material being, while also the eternal spark of Divine Light is amazing. This awareness of the Self as both mortal and eternal has puzzled philosophers and spiritual leaders throughout the ages.

When I ponder these deep mysteries in the exciting context of the current revelations and awareness, I realize that it is love that teaches humanity about the eternal nature of the Soul. And, that seems appropriate because the nature of your Soul is love.

Ultimately, love is an eternal connection. In the deepest recesses of the human heart, beyond full comprehension is the awareness that love never ends. This is one of the most powerful and profound mysteries of the human life adventure.

It is by learning to love that we begin to comprehend this merging of our human awareness with the light of our Soul’s awareness. It is this merged being that is awakening to consciousness and expression in this dynamic time in human evolution.

The nature of God as love and the nature of the Soul as love combined with the understanding of love creates a state of being that is boundless. This leads our awareness into such mysteries as eternity and the eternal NOW.

The Divine nature of love takes the understanding of what it is to love out of the realm of limitations of matter then expands that experience into the awareness of love as an energetic force that is unlimited by either space or time, that is not confined by matter and therefore not limited by matter.

In this dual awareness, the mysteries of a new way of being and a new way of living are revealed. A concept such as accession becomes possible as you consider it is the consciousness and perspective that ascend as you incorporate your awareness of your Soul into your mind, into your emotions, and into your body and let it merge with your personality, ultimately merging into the wholeness of your being. Ponder on this.

This integration of your Soul and eternal spark of light with your body, mind, and emotions through integrating your Soul with your personality is an integral part of the consciousness of awakening.

This integration of the world of spirit with the world of what is physical and temporary is a significant shift in awareness.

This change in perception is a shift in human consciousness that changes everything. Functioning as a physical, emotional, and mental being that is also spiritual and eternal is a consciousness shift that expands your life journey.

That you can dually live in the eternal awareness of your consciousness as a Soul, while still functioning and responding as a personality, is a crucial part of the awakening process.

Meditation Is the Portal To Awareness

Meditation is the portal that can help you awaken to this dual awareness. Through meditation, you can begin to ignite the Light of your Soul and bring it ever increasingly into your awareness.

Connecting with your Soul through meditation opens you to the wisdom of your Soul which can be used to guide difficult life decisions. It can also connect you to the Source of Divine Love in life transforming and powerful ways.

That is the real spiritual awakening, when something emerges from within you that is deeper than who you thought you were. So, the person is still there, but one could almost say that something more powerful shines through the person.
– Eckhart Tolle

Awakening and incorporating your Soul (your Higher Self), with the life lessons that challenge your days, opens you to being a new kind of human being that is coming into being in this new age of evolution. Humanity is just now at the beginning of this new way of being.

The process of awakening is a dual process of being and becoming. Living in the Light of the Soul while also living as a Soul infused personality is a different approach to life. It is a new adventure for humanity.

After eons of human evolutions, this emerging Aquarian Age and the spiritual awakening that people are experiencing across the globe gives new hope.

I encourage and invite you to open your heart and your mind to the transformative touch of your Soul that guides you to this new spiritual awakening so you can live a more inspired, joyful and fulfilling life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Understanding Our Dual Nature

Genevieve Gerard

Understanding Our Dual Nature

This article is part of my ongoing series on Soul Awareness.

The experience of being human is an amazing blend of seemingly contradictory factors.

Let us take a moment to consider the diverse parts of the human being that must be integrated every day of our lives. Understanding this better may help you understand the different aspects of your human nature that are often challenging.

A dear spiritual friend of mine calls this duality, but I feel that term may not capture the full depth and breadth of the dynamics of what it means to be a human being in incarnation, especially at this exciting time in human evolution.

Since the dawn of creation, when human beings first drew in the breath of life, we as human beings have been a unique creation. We are told in the scriptures, that man was created in the image of God, the relationship between the part of ourselves that is the animal man and the part of ourselves that is Divine created in the image of the creator, has been a source of many questions. It is that concept on which I wish to expand.

Let us take a minute to consider the meaning of the dual nature of man. This is a subject that I have long pondered and studied. Within the understanding of that dual nature are many factors that are important to consider.

Divine Observations

The most ancient religions across the planet, even when they differ dramatically in dogma seem to have observed certain essential truths. One of these truths is that a human being has within them something that is both Divine and eternal.

This truth is acknowledged by the ancient greeting “Namaste.” The meaning of the ancient Sanskrit phrase Namaste is that you honor and recognize this Divinity in another. This recognition happens in a deep pre-conscious part of your being. It is both a deep truth and a profound mystery about the human condition.

There are some things that help to consider this dual nature of your being. Some of these are common sense observations of reality. Others are more abstract. Yet, even the most abstract of these seem to be a part of your collective understanding, and archetypal awareness of what it means to be a human being, a unique and amazing blending of what is material and what is spiritual.

As you delve into this mystery, there are many beliefs that may have been taught to you throughout all of our life that come into play. When we talk about these issues, these beliefs can be a great support in your understanding or a great hindrance because what I am saying is being judged to match up with the dogma of those beliefs.

What Resonates For You As The Truth

As I write to you today I try, to my best ability, to discuss and explain these issues in a way that have a practical implication upon your life, the decisions you make and how to best take advantage of this miracle of life with which you have been blessed. As you read this, I am going to ask you to calm your mind and open your heart. I am going to ask you to consider these words from a place deep within you that resonates and is recognized by you when you hear the truth.

I am going to ask you today to read my words and only judge them by what resonates for you as the truth. If anything that I write, today or ever does not live up to that standard, I request that you dismiss it. I am a human being on the same path to being more enlightened in my awareness as you and every other human being who walks the earth.

Nothing I have ever said or will ever say should be given greater authority than the truth.
– Genevieve Gerard

Inner Sense of Truth and Knowing

Amazingly, each of us has within us a deep sense of truth when we are open to receive it. The common phrase, “that has the ring of truth to it” describes this experience of considering the truth in what you are hearing or reading. There is a phrase I have often considered and pondered on along my own path, “no religion is higher than the truth.” Therefore, it is to this inner sense of truth and knowing that I direct you as we explore this fully human and Divine aspect of your human nature.

As we consider these truths, I also ask you to consider how these truths relate to the practical daily decisions you make in your life. In my own meditations lately, when I connect to my Soul, my own spark of Divine Light to grow and understand my life and my work, I have been pondering upon a phrase, “practical spirituality.” Indeed, if being spiritual has a purpose in life it must be to help us live life more abundantly and more joyfully.

The more that I have come to know and understand the spiritual part of my being, the more solutions I have found to the multifaceted and myriad of life’s challenges. Meditation has been the portal through which I make contact with the Divine spark in me, my Soul, and it is through the vast and unconditional love that is available to me when I touch my Soul, that I am granted both understanding and wisdom to solve life’s problems.

I have, to the very best of my ability, tried to capture these solutions to share with you in my guided meditations and my writings. From my own very human challenges in life and from my many years helping others resolve life challenges I have created many meditations. My husband jokes that my epitaph will be “I have a meditation for that.” It is my experience that my relationship with my Soul is both immensely practical and life-enhancing.

It is from the perspective of my own awareness of my dual nature as a Soul or Spiritual being that I must integrate the needs of my body, my emotions, my thought with the directing of my Soul. I shall strive to describe the practical applications of that dual perspective to you now.

Understanding Your Dual Nature

You Have a Physical Body

In order to have this discussion, it is important that we consider what you know to be the seeming diverse parts of your human nature. First, you know you have a physical body. That part of your human nature and your human experience is the source for many delights. The five senses of the physical body are a source for a great deal of enjoyment. It is a precious gift from the Creator. It is a bountiful blessing.

If you apply that recommended filter of truth to the preceding statement about your body, I am sure it will pass the test. There are those in the name of spiritual teaching who have taught you to deny the blessings of the body, with thoughts of shame and guilt. Nevertheless, I ask you to consider with gratitude and celebration the miracle that your body is. Open yourself to enjoy and appreciate that amazing part of the wholeness of yourself.

As it is true that the physical part of your human experience is wonderful and glorious; it is also true that you are more than a physical body. Life, your life, is multilayered and multifaceted. Yet, from your awareness of your physical nature, you know that the desires and the pleasures of the flesh can easily get out of balance and out of control.

Amazingly, it is your Higher Self, your Soul, which can help you keep your physical desires in balance. The Soul, or as addiction treatment refers to it, a Higher Power, is often the key to overcoming excess and addiction to the desires and pleasures of the flesh. This is for many a first step in calling upon their dual nature in a practical and life-changing manner. It is by calling on the Higher Self, your own personal Higher Power, that you can gain mastery and start a process of integration.

In the Ageless Wisdom, this process is referred to as an important step in human evolution, that of bringing the Soul into dominance over the physical desires and urges.

You have a body, but you are more than your body. This is powerfully demonstrated when you use the influence and strength of your Soul to transcend out of balance physical desires to move forward in your life. This is an example of calling upon the advantages of being a dual being, material and spiritual.

You Have Emotions

Likewise, you have emotions. This is one of the true challenges of our human experience. Just as dealing with the desires of the flesh can create untold challenges in the human adventure, so too can the experience of emotions present an ongoing challenge. The wildly erratic nature of emotions, from anger to joy, from hate to love, make having emotions, and especially not letting your emotions be in control in your life, a major focus of the practical application of spirituality.

There is no doubt that coping with and managing the desires of the flesh is an important part of life. We have all seen the disastrous results of lives where desire and pleasure were allowed to be out of balance in life decisions. Likewise, the rampant expressions of the volatility of emotions do not lead to a happy or fulfilling life. This is the conclusion of a thinking man.

You Have A Thinking Mind

Truly, the mind is an equally powerful part of the wholeness of your being. Through the power of your mind, you are able to understand that you, in your human experience are more than a body. And, by observing life you know that you are more than the sum total of your rollercoaster emotions.

Your mind and most importantly the content of your thoughts is essential to understanding what I call your spiritual anatomy. How these diverse parts of the human nature of physical, emotional and mental combine and work together is truly amazing. The integration and blending of these concurrently diverse forces of the self is the function of the personality.

You Are A Soul

Although the personality does a great job of striving to balance the parts of the self, the real dynamic power of one’s dual nature resides in the Soul. The Soul, that spark of Divine Light that is so rarely even considered in many people’s daily life, is where the real magic of the human experience resides. However, as we consider the magnificent multifaceted parts of “being” a human being it is important to understand the different nature of the Soul from your personality.

The Ageless Wisdom teaches that the Soul, your Soul, is available to help you live the full breadth and the full joy of your life. This is a power you can engage and activate in ways that help you conquer the challenges of the desires of the flesh.

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
– Swami Vivekananda

The Soul offers the support to transcend fears and one’s more unpleasant and painful emotions. Your Soul provides the ignition to the mind to serve in a co-creator relationship with the Divine. With the empowering of your thoughts through the spiritual principles of the Law of Attraction and the energetic dynamics that “energy follows thought,” you can create your life. Ponder on this.

We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
– Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Although your personality does an ok job of integrating your body and your emotions with your mind, your personality is not your Soul. Your Soul, which is a spark of Divine Light, is a part of the Creative force and eternal and evolving essence of life itself.

Your Soul, rather than your personality, can do a much more enlightened job of integrating the human nature of your body, mind, and emotions.

To touch your Soul, to open your heart and your mind to that resplendent radiance and glory is life-transforming and can take place every day. Making this distinction is important in understanding your dual nature as a human being.

As you develop, learn, and grow as a spiritual being on your quest for more enlightened awareness, it is the touch and transforming power of your Soul that will make the greatest difference.
– Genevieve Gerard

Soul-Infused Personality

Along the path of spiritual evolution, the integration of the body, the emotions and the mind with your Soul are significant achievements. The integration of each of these parts of the self with the Soul is the forerunner to integrating your personality with your Soul.

To incorporate the consciousness of your Soul with your personality, you must focus your awareness beyond your individual self, into your oneness with all of life. Throughout the day, allow your Soul to overshadow your personality and influence every action you take. This will make a powerful and profound difference in how you experience even the most mundane things in the world.

It is in the integration of your very human nature with your spiritual nature that the real majesty of being a physical being and a Soul comes into its full glory.

It is in this step in the evolution of a human being and a Soul that the full miracle of merging the physical with the spiritual can be demonstrated.

Check out any of my guided activity-based awareness meditations to have an experience of this.

I invite and encourage you to experience the many ways that your human nature can benefit from the greater perspective of your Soul’s wisdom and vast unconditional love.

This merging and integration with your Soul (and the ultimate understanding of your dual nature) is the most rewarding and exciting adventure you can undertake. I welcome your comments on understanding your dual nature below.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Live A Balanced Life

Genevieve Gerard

Live A Balanced Life

In your life experience, learning balance is important.

You must learn to balance work with play. You must learn to balance your selfish desires with charity. You must strive to balance your joys and your sorrows. Even when something is good and enjoyable we can realize that too much is not good because it takes us out of balance.

But more important is another step to living a balanced life.

Balance is important in so many subtle aspects of our life that we seem to gravitate toward it unconsciously. There are aspects of the concept of balance that serve as primary lessons for the spiritual demonstrations that are a part of our evolving consciousness.

A part of our growth and maturation as a conscious being and a spiritual being requires learning to use each distinctive part of our being in harmony and balance with the other parts of our being. The lessons that come about from harnessing the desires and impulses of our physical nature and our body are not only important psychological lessons but also important as spiritual lessons.

The Ageless Wisdom speaks of these lessons of consciousness in terms of calling upon our Soul to give us dominion over the desires of the flesh. Likewise, the insight and perspective of the Soul is called upon to enable us to conquer the dragons of our fears and calm the troubled water of being overly emotional.

Balance is the most important of all qualities. We don’t want a little bit of rapid growth and then to stagnate. We want continual growth, continual development, which implies balance, always.
– Dr. Frederick Lenz (Zen Master Rama)

In a higher turn of the spiral, the wisdom of the Soul is invoked to bring the mental body into balance and alignment with the impressions of the Soul. In each of these important developmental tasks on the spiritual journey, integration is significant. In each of these significant milestones, the evolution of our human consciousness and understanding of the scope of the human experience is demonstrated.

This process of integration continues as a theme in variation through our many lifetimes as we explore the vast array of possibilities in life. You may or may not believe in the continuity of consciousness that is known as reincarnation. If you consider that a possibility, within the context of our evolving and growing into the fullness our dual nature as fully human and our sense that we are in some way connected with that which is Divine in life, as a hypothesis many unanswerable questions seem to find an explanation.

To consider that our nature and the fullness of our being includes a physical body which we must not let run amok in life seems pretty clear. We have all seen the disastrous results of unchecked lusts, gluttony, and laziness. These temptations along the spiritual path are well established and they are even listed in the seven deadly sins.

To expand your thinking to include the challenges of the other parts of your nature, wrath, greed, pride and envy you can see that bringing your emotions back from uncontrollable expression is also an important part of living an integrated life. Likewise, learning to harness the impressions of the mind beyond just the capacity of thought into the more spiritual application of wisdom is a task that often requires courage and conviction. To bring the needs and desires of our physical body into balance and bring our mind and emotions to equilibrium are all vital to have a truly successful life experience.

Integration of these often conflicting urges and influences is the work of the personality. The better integrated, the more balanced and cooperative these dynamism’s are the happier and I believe the more successful and fulfilled an individual is. We can see the truth of this by observing our fellow man.

The Final Step In The Process Of Balance

A less obvious factor in our comprehension, because it is less tangible to our human expression, is the final step in this process of balance and amalgamation. This is the dynamic that becomes available with the integration of our Soul into the wholeness of life experience. It is, however, only when we embark upon this final quest of human consciousness that we can begin to fully understand and express the mystery of our creation as being fully human and at the same time in union with the Divine. That mankind has known itself to be of this dual nature as both human and Divine is reflected in the ancient greeting of “Namaste,” a Sanskrit phrase that means “the Divinity in me recognizes and honors the Divinity that is in you.”

Initiations Into Different Stages of Consciousness

The developmental tasks along the spiritual journey have been explained in the Ageless Wisdom in the terms of initiations into different stages of consciousness simply expressed as:

The first initiation, Soul dominion over the physical body;
The second initiation, Soul domination of the emotional body;
The third initiation, Soul domination over the mental body.

In this integrative process the personality is also integrated with the Soul as the sum total of our body, emotions and mind.

This step in our spiritual evolution of integrating and fusing our Soul with our personality is the culmination of so many life lessons and spiritual lessons that it is rare to find. It is a stage in consciousness to which you can aspire and open yourself to in meditation. There are, in the Mantram taught in the Ageless Wisdom, specific opportunities to open your heart, your mind and your Soul to this experience.

One of my very favorites, the Mantram of the Soul, comes from the works of Alice A. Bailey, Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. II. p. 123.

Affirming, asserting and invoking this blending of light and fusion of your Soul with the personality brings about a shift in your life experience and consciousness. These, in turn, bring about a new way of being and facilitate the expression of the new kind of human being who is evolving into the world. It is with the development of this new type of human being, that you can imagine the changes and transformation the world will need to undergo if the long-predicted golden New Age will come to fruition.

This step in your consciousness and expression of your dual nature, fully human and Divine, is a giant step for mankind that has been eons in the making. This expression of your role as a co-creator of life in harmonic cooperation with the Divine promises new possibilities and potentialities as you venture through this experience we call life.

Namaste,

Genevieve
