Hello, this is Cynthia Sue Larson with realityshifters.com and the DreamVision7
radio network. Today I'd like to talk with you about listening to
intuition and feeling intrinsic goodness. The relevance of this has to do with
the often unconscious bias that we give and the preference we tend to give in
Western civilization to logical, rational decision-making, and the idea that things
that we measure--ideas that can be proven true or false, because they're factual,
verifiable--we give a lot of preference to that. We tend to think that would be
the mature thing to do; that would be the rational thing to do. The issue with that
is that often, when we focus on those measurables, we tend to lose sight of
everything that has meaning, purpose, and value, that typically is not measurable.
So, when you think about what you're living for in life, and you write a list
of those things down, pay attention to which ones are really measurable things
that someone else could agree exactly whether you have reached that point or
not--or if they're un-measurable. Chances are pretty good that the things worth
living for are entirely unmeasurable. So that's the idea here. Then, moving
into intuition, to figure out, well how do we get back in touch with intuition, if
we've lost that? If somehow within our day-to-day lives we've become so focused
on getting done the to-do list, and accomplishing the things that we know we
have to do to get them completed. That's where we need to take a look at this
sacred gift of intuition, and recognize that it's okay to put your life in
charge--to put that intuitive decision-making process in charge of
your life, and let the rational mind be a faithful servant to the intuitive.
I know that's a big leap, so you can just think about it today, just to give it
some consideration. Some of you that are already on an intuitive path, are
aware probably, that being in Nature is quite good for developing intuition.
Listening to your dreams is quite good for developing intuition. And meditating
is extraordinarily good for developing intuition. Once you start developing your
intuition, some people immediately are confronted with what feels like external
fears, and so a whole new world of concern is sometimes opening up at that
point. And that's also to be expected. Because what's happening is you peel off
those layers of the onion within yourself, as you're finding very hidden,
some subconscious concerns and issues within yourself, that you might be
projecting onto the world without realizing you're doing it. This is where
it really matters to start taking some time to connect with this sense of
intrinsic goodness; to feel that in your life. To feel everything that
you're truly grateful for is a blessing, and that all of these blessings are
intrinsically already there. They are something that you don't have to strive
for: to be on this beautiful earth; to be part of this beautiful world. That so
many of the things that you care the most about: the people, the animals, the
plants in your life that you care so much about--these are truly gifts from
Divine Source. And the more you recognize what else you are grateful for,
it's possible that you can go into a very profound state of divine ecstatic
bliss and reverence, just from going deeper and deeper and deeper into this
gratitude, and it's boundless. There's truly a sense of infinite
eternal wonder, splendor, mystery there. And it to me, it's the source of true joy,
rather than some sort of ephemeral joy based on surface appearance,
or any of those measurables. And so this then becomes to me the key to truly
developing intuition, and living a meaningful life. So things you can do to
develop this sense of profound connection and reverence, is again: you
can be in Nature; I think that's a wonderful way to make that connection.
Just imagine that such a thing as divine essential goodness--intrinsic goodness--
exists within you, within me, within Nature, within all of us. Until next
time, this is Cynthia Sue Larson with realityshifters.com and the DreamVision7
