We All Get Daily “Do-Overs” (and Why there are no ethics as Consciousness) ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
I’m working with several people on reconciling their pasts. They are knee deep in shame and struggle over things they’ve done. The main focus is to shine a light on their side of the street, so they can move forward with no regrets.
A realization I had today is that we have these different themes running through our lives, different story threads, different recurring energy patterns. When we engage unconsciously, these patterns seem to run us. We do things we may later consider unconscionable when when shine the light of Consciousness on it all.
It’s not useful to berate ourselves or want to punish ourselves to past misdeeds. It just solidifies the pattern we want to unravel. Sometimes there are definite actions we can take to help us release the past. But sometimes we might have already rectified the situations and we haven’t recognized it.
Mind you, Consciousness is infinitely neutral about all of this. When our bodies die, what remains is our greater Consciousness, and there’s none of this leftover residual energy that we’ve made up stories about from a personality level interpretation.
We don’t go to hell, we aren’t trapped in purgatory, our immortal souls are not destroyed by the misdeeds committed while in form. It’s all just absorbed into Consciousness, like falling into an ocean of Love.
It’s hard to comprehend while in form, because this is a world where things are black and white, good and bad, right and wrong. So we will interpret the afterlife with these same assumptions.
When we’re entangled in form, these ethics are all very real. Outside of form, they don’t exist.
That doesn’t mean that it’s ok to run around killing people or ripping them off while you’re in body. Not because it’s bad, but because you’re engaging in unconscious behavior patterns. When you’re operating as Consciousness, you have no interest in playing that way in form.
So how do we reconcile the actions of the past, when we were operating as our body personality egoic patterns, from this new awareness as Consciousness?
It’s simple (as everything as Consciousness is simple). Each day we get a “Daily Do-Over”. We get to be different. Every day is a new reality. Kind of like the movie “Groundhog Day”, except the story moves onward.
We get to be new every morning. We don’t have to behave the way we used to, we don’t have to react to things the way we used to. And even if we are engaging with situations and people from our pasts, we don’t have to be the way that’s projected at us (because there are all sorts of stories out there as well.
As Consciousness, we’re inventing this moment to moment. If past situations arise in the present, they’re opportunities to be different. Each time you are different with past patterns, the energy dissipates until it’s gone completely.
Each time we respond as Consciousness, we embody our greater self more into form, we’re more empowered, clear and confident. And our lives reorganize is miraculous ways.
Try this for the next week and see what happens!
