Having no negativity

In realizing how to live and come from what is deeper than the accustomed self, having a living Master is so helpful.  I learn so much from John - from his transmission, his teaching and at times from his more direct and personal guidance, where he points out where I am not moving in agreement with what I Know.  Loving the little bit that we know the truth of within can become the living nectar that sustains us all day long in the midst of life's ups and downs - that subtle tiny little bit is everything.  Unseen yes, but Known and able to grow and blossom with our quieted agreement and surrender to it - in which giving nothing to negativity is so key.  During Friday's meeting John said:

"Deeply surrender

to using no negative phrasing

inside your life and out."

The above statement was in response to the questioner asking for some help to come from the heart.  John then went on to say how the self has feelings of like and dislike and, in no longer validating the feelings of dislike, giving such feelings no voice or movement.  Whilst saying what you do like  often and easily puts you into your heart, giving voice or movement to negativity is you taking your self to heart and not what you know that is deeper within.  When the questioner spoke to John of having no negativity, he said:

"Not even on the inside.

If you say it on the inside

you'll say it on the outside -

so you give it no voice and no movement."

John spoke that any time that you have a negative feeling, it's your cue to drop deeply within into surrender:

"The deep surrender

to being quieted within

when any negative feeling comes up

puts you into what you really are."

*

"Be quieted within instead of being right."

Being quieted within when negativity arises steers us, as awareness, into what is deeper and cleaner within, allowing us to love the little; to be True ...

Until next time,

Love,
