The greatest thing we can do in this life is to transcend our Egotistical Programmed Mind and to realize what we Truly are as a Divine Spiritual Being!
The problem is; that many of us have been programmed to believe that what we do is who we are.
For me, this programming was took place in the early 2000’s when I listened to New Zealand Pastor; Ray Comfort’s – The Way of The Master – Basic Training Program, which was promoted by television personality; Kirk Cameron.
Ray Comfort’s teaching was basically whatever you do, is proof of who you are! For example; He’d say; “If you lie, that makes you a liar, if you cheat, that makes you a cheater, if you steal that makes you a thief, if you murder that makes you a murderer, etc., therefore you are a sinner and you need a savior!” It sounded logical and I’m sure thousands of people bought into it like I did.
Not only did we buy this logic, hook – line and sinker, our evangelical churches perpetuated this ideology! Week after week for decades we heard, repent of your sin’s or you’ll burn in hell.
The travesty of this, is that if we are believing we are sinners, then we are believing everyone is a sinner, especially our children and we will treat them as such. Now we have a generation that constantly struggles with not feeling good enough, insecure, fearful and angry. We’ve spent our lives from this judgmental programming – judging and being judged, but desperately desiring to unconditionally love one another!
Well I have good news for you; What you do, is NOT WHO YOU ARE!
Deconstruction Process
To understand and transcend Religious Trauma is to first go through a deconstruction process, where we let go of this Egotistical Programming by doing some Inner Healing and come to realize that Jesus’ message was Our Oneness With The Divine! For me; The Divine, A Course In Miracles, and The Teachers of God Foundation guided me through this process.
Once we know our oneness with The Divine, we understand why Jesus said; “You are gods and be perfect as I am perfect!”
As the programmed mind is healed, we begin to reconstruct our beliefs in Christ that; we are Divine Spiritual Beings having a dream that we are human. As Jesus’ says in A Course In Miracles; “The Bible mentions that a deep sleep fell upon Adam and nowhere is there any reference to his waking up!” This is also why the Bible says; “we are seated in Heavenly places.”
The vast array of human experiences in this special dream, have created a two part Egotistical Programmed Mind; The Fearful Victim and Angry Protector.
Until we go through the awakening process, we all unconsciously follow this Egotistical Guidance, which caused us to make poor choices or what Christians would call sin. These poor choices or errors are not WHO we are, they’re what we did in a dream, because we were following the wrong guidance.
We are on a journey of awakening to what we Truly are in The Divine. This is accomplished by living in awareness of our True Identity, the Egotistical Programmed Mind and pausing when we are thrown out of peace, while asking ourself; WHO is thinking and having these feelings; Our True Self or The Ego?
Welcome to freedom my friend, as the truth about what you Truly are, is setting you free!
