When I say you guys rock, I really mean it.
Humanity is extremely powerful, individually and collectively. There are tales (documented or otherwise) from all over the world, of people doing incredible, mind-blowing things. Hermits in remote places, monks, record-breakers, small tribes… They walk across hot coals, punch through concrete or wood and so on. How do these people seem to manage these seemingly superhuman feats? Well, if you were to speak to any of them, a common thread may show itself: they each have very little pride and ego.
They don’t use their abilities simply to show off or for personal gain unless they can see that it helps others and the greater good. Often they also teach that we can all perform the feats they do as well. My brother just got back from an invitation from teachers at a temple in China to study Tai Chi Chuan with them. He also has an invitation to Japan to study Aikido on the horizon. There is love for students to come & learn amazing things. The thing is, a good portion of the population really lets themselves be held back/down by pride and ego, and since that is the main block to acquiring these skills, it’s important to transcend that first; sort of like learning to crawl before we walk, or walk before we run. Now, some people would have you believe that this process takes years of study or hard work, but actually one can transcend all these issues and crap in an instant (I’m a good example of this
), as well as embrace a new way or form of personal power.
So if we say someone is cold, alone in a storm, and they wished to not feel miserable/uncomfortable, or they wish to manage their core temperature, or they want to manifest some miracle… this can actually be done! I’d recommend not becoming super-picky about how things happen – if a person can truly put aside ego, judgement & fear, and be open to learning, then all of a sudden maybe the wind dies, or maybe your hand goes numb. or maybe a car pulls up & offers you a ride. Anything can happpen and actually will if one is truly open to it. Still, everyone has their own path and time and focus, and of everyone who reads this only a certain portion will get it. They may understand it from the point of view of "The Secret" and "Law Of Attraction", they may get it through Christian Faith in miracles, or from a "We Are All One" connectedness, or even through a quantum physics understanding of the "Observer Effect" ,whatever the case, it was fun writing it.
Feel free to rock (cuz you guys rock) some feedback in the comments section.
