i love new age movement and all the one up man ship and bullying. All the spiritual one up manship that I have been subjected to has really helped me burn my bad karma from when I was an a-hole in a previous life.

I’m amazed that people are still looking outside themselves for answers.

The store clerk has no authority to tell another person whether or not they are “ready” to buy a stone. That is the individual’s perogative.

I believe that if we all clean up our own backyards, then we will soon have a nice neighbourhood.

We all are connected to Source, or the Field, or Universe, or whatever you choose to call it, so there is no need to consult others about what works for ourselves. We can strengthen the connection with our Inner Be-ings.

As my guides have said: “Do not take what others say to heart, they do not know for you.”

We are our own authorities.

As a practitioner of the Emotional Freedom Techniques I have to be free of ego and being connected to the outcome of sessions with clients. I see, every day, “healers” who have their own agendas. It might be “healing” someone or adding cash to their own bottom line.
One might think the agenda of healing someone is altruistic until you realize that the client is the healer and the practitioner is only a facilitator.
So, you say, what has this to do with the topic at hand? There is a growing group of people in this spiritual movement who are cashing in for selfish reasons. We can feel/be/express anger at those people or send them love, gratitude (for the message we get from them) and forgiveness. This elevates, not only them, but all of us. “We are always on a journey and we never get it wrong. If we live by that philosophy there is no need for anger of self or others.
Keep up the good work Lynne, I am interested in the results.

Hello.
I hope this will help you, your son, and others, Susan. I am a Consumer Researcher and Compassion Scientist. Through research, I have found that the less similar we are, for ex. demographically, the less likely our communications and getting along will be successful. The more similar we are, the more likely our communications and socializing will be successful.

Through experiments, I have learned that when people of difference (most of us are physically and mentally different) first offer their compassion or compassionate intent to others, they are more likely to successfully communicate and get along. When compassion is created, I am able to measure new and incremental love in receivers and givers; that results in enhancing love’s correlates like happiness, less stress, health, immunity, optimism, creativity, productivity, and longevity.

Creating compassion and compassionate intent changes our context from the objective of things, egos, and our differences, to the subjective, where everyone is the same through our connection of love, unity.

Thank you so much Lynne. I feel that the new thought movement is a powerful vehicle for “oneness” that will help catapult us beyond the ego based need for “oneupsmanship,” and that we need to let go of the ego to get there. The best example I have seen of no need for ego is Eckhart Tolle. He had to go through hell to get there, and perhaps if we learn from him and from you, we all don’t have to do the same. There is plenty of health, plenty of money, plenty of time, plenty of everything when we are not looking through the scarcity glasses, and realize that mother earth and the universe can and will support us in our every need every day. We can learn from each and every experience, we can craft what we desire from the endless supply of energy out there, and having what we want takes nothing away from anyone else. There is no need for greed, put downs, judgments…we are all exactly where we are because that is where we need to be for now.

Hi I sat for two minutes thinking should i put a comment…….. what will be the purpose…. do I have the time…….. so I just listened to what I call my soul sense. Yes write……… I opened this email because of the word bullying and then spirituality………. why oh because my journey has been connected to this particular field since the birth of my twins….. one is an academic flyer all a’s the other struggles with outstanding effort. Bullied at every turn in every school attended. beaten bitten called every foul name possible his last school where we are just working through to get GCSE’s the head boy, deput head and other seniors set up website for him……..his heroes for a short moment in time became something else for the website was for aFxxxxxx Retard and the result was truamatic as my children were still sore from two unexpected deaths their father and their grandpa. So you may all be thinking what has this got to do with anything. well reading all the emails/blogs so far everyone seems to share a common connection PASSION. For me it reminds me of how difficult it is for all of us to share ideas and communicate our critical comments with positive energy I am always failing but one just keeps on trying. I think perhaps the answer lays in the intention of our communications its starting point. Watching and experiencing the pain of one of my sons tell me he knows he is different and how sad he feel that he cant make true friends at school just spears me on with my vso work within the uk educational system. For over 10 years as a solo working mum I have sponsered this work out of my own funds and my current project although the same will have to be funded by others in the end if it is to have the optimum impact to empower enable the children in the uk. So perhaps the money /business issues are like everything a question of balance. I have to say that I too have found the repeat emails come across as on ongoing pitch but then perhaps that is what is needed and it has indeed caused quite a stir and connected a lot of people. I dont have a website yet but watch out for INaSENSE and I TOO WILL BE banging the drum because I care so passionately so forgive me in advance in the meantime best wishes to all those I read I learnt from each one.

Oh Gosh! I do apologize for the lecture. It was not my intention to give one. What I was trying to put across is that we are all powerful. When a healing occurs, I do not think that I was the one who “did it”. No, I am always in awe of how wonderful and magnificent the client is whose journey this is. I am purely facilitating the process… My apologies to Jamie for perhaps creating the “burden” of her healing… Again, not at all my meaning or intention. Healing takes place in many forms and not necessarily the way in which we expect. I guess I was trying to respond to:”Your kind of healing (the one with the financial enumeration) simply does not work and I can attest to that personally by having my savings depleted and still my illness lingers.” and:”I have found that “snake-oil” salesmen and charlatans abound in this genre and that they are serving themselves more than they are serving others.” – I felt the need to respond as this was directed straight at me. I obviously didn’t do very well in my response to elicit the comment:”You might not have the ’superhuman’ ability to heal yourself alone and what a burden that lays on you….”
Thank you for that comment. Again, mirrors and mirrors…..
Thank you to for forums like this. Fascinating to read all the different opinions….
