I am inspired

What is spirituality? Hmmm… I guess it is synonymous with true humility when you finally realize that you are a guest in this life, and that you require impeccable manners concerning gratitude and forgiveness. Grace is a truly misunderstood word, but when you consider how lucky you are to be alive and count your blessings, then I guess the things that are missing are to teach us and move us forward with healthy desire, rather than staying in bed and pulling the doona cover over our heads. We have a compelling future waiting for us… Be inspired. We are all destined for greatness, if only we would believe it. YOU ARE DESTINED FOR GREATNESS – FEARLESS LOVE -

Change

Change is the only constant in life and those who accept and embrace this are the master surfers who ride the waves of life. Those who cannot accept this are the ones that usually end up getting dumped. Learn to live your life from the unfolding of what comes from within, and you will find life exactly as it is, and thus the key to your own mastership. Embrace the changes as all newness is growth. Each fall is an opportunity to reset your compass and head in a more authentic direction. -FEARLESS LOVE-

Trust

Wherever there is a lack of trust there is fear, wherever there is fear there is a lack of love. When one doesn’t trust it is because as some level that person is also untrustworthy. Trust is one of the highest forms of love. To be truly trusting of God, yourself and others takes enormous courage. We are basically driven by desires, agendas and outcomes that cause us to modify our values, beliefs and boundaries to get what we want.

If only we could realize we are all one, all connected and that if we held our actions to the highest good of all concerned then we would raise the consciousness of this planet over night.

Words are poor descriptors of what is really going on as they are only a secondary representation of experience. So regardless of our intentions, and what we say it is what we do that forges the outcomes in history, including personal history.

Behavior is the highest form of communication and the meaning of our communication is the response we get.

I find to trust life completely always gives me the pathway to move forward on. Without authenticity someone cannot approach the portal of trust because through the open doorway of trust an eternity, destiny and purpose is lived and revealed. Fear holds so many of us back and therefore gives people a counterfeit experience of life.

Compromise, cop out and lack luster existence is the outcome of those who live in fear.

Trust, yourself, trust others, trust life. All the precautions, contracts, safeguards, insurances, hedges, hesitations, jealousies, fears, protections and fortresses have never worked in the history of mankind. The floods have still come, the thieves have still showed up, the unfaithful will always be there.

Learn to live your life from within, and thus you will find life exactly as it is, and thus the key to your own mastership. If you seek purity in your heart and want the highest good for all concerned then trust is a road that is worth walking on.

I include one of my favorite requests of life here for those whom may want to ponder trust at a deeper level.

“Dear Heavenly Father, life spirit, universal power, (whatever floats your boat),

I ask of you in humility please, take from me everything that is not mine by divine right, everything that is not true, false or unreal. Take from me all that does not belong, serve or edify, let it return to its rightful owner or go on to those whom are rightful and or deserving of it. i mean this on every level, physical, financial, mental, spiritual and emotional. Strip me bare leave nothing untouched.

Prune me like a rose until I stand naked with nothing left, and let the new shoots sprout. Bring to me all that is true, pure and mine by divine right. There is naught else but relationship, all else is a by product of that and a means to that end. I live for right relationship and trust. Let me have the gift of trust that this will be so in my life and I will truly be the presence of love and trust in your eyes.”

Where there is no trust there is no Harmony. This is my request of life…..

Responsibility

Responsibility, is an unusual word, RESPONSE-ABILITY. Most people attribute either blame or denial rather than seeing where they have played a part in a particular outcome. Blame and denial are reactions, and not responses.

When we react, the harmonious beneficial outcome is delayed or destroyed. When we respond the outcome has a far greater chance of manifesting harmoniously and quickly. It is what we think, speak and do, plus the choices we make, that places us where we are and makes us who and what we are. Choices and decision forge destiny.

Basically for me I view a particular duality which is one of many as People who are either Responsible or Not Responsible. What I have noticed is that where people are successful, do what they say they are going to do and get great outcomes seem responsible. They are those whom impress me, and seem to cope overcoming many obstacles, make many contributions and effect life in positive way. It seems that happiness, prosperity, contribution, positive influence all hovers around those who say I AM RESPONSIBLE.

Those whom I have observed having the short straw in life, those whom I see suffer, lose out, get the raw end of the deal, have lack lustre lives and are not successful are always crying “it is not my fault.” These people seem to be of the group that bemoan I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. I have noticed that wherever responsibility is proclaimed and embraced things, seem to go better. Better outcomes, better relationships, more solutions, more success, happiness and prosperity. Greater things take place in the lives of those whom accept responsibility.

Where ever I see the denial and rejection of responsibility and personal responsibility I see helplessness, hopelessness, and a trail of broken promises, lack of personal will power, huge debt and burden upon the individual and the lives that he or she influences. This distinction of the difference between pain and pleasure does not seem to be common knowledge.

It shows up time and time again in my coaching, counselling, training and consulting. Wherever Responsibility is present, things move forward and upward, wherever responsibility is not, things move backwards, stand still or downwards. These words have been the turning point in my own life and for many of the people I have had the pleasure to influence. It is my hope that these few words, create the desire to ponder and meditate on the import of the word RESPONSIBILITY.

Relationships

So many people enter into relationships unconsciously not realizing the implications of being connected to someone without either one or both not having the relevant skill sets to make each other happy. The first challenge comes when one or both parties have no reference structure of how to make themselves or each other happy by being nice. Being nice is not as easy as it sounds because once someone enters the inner circle of the other person they begin to experience the inner world of shared turmoil and upset.

Harmony is a learned skill and for most people the only learning or reference structure is what they saw in their parents or guardians whilst growing up, or fictitious soap operas. Boundaries and intentionality to treat each other with dignity and respect are not taught in schools, their are no courses for young people in “Relationship 101″. It is usually after a lot of trial and error and pain that by hard lessons people seem to either soften where needed or put in Boundaries where needed.

I have included a short video on my site http://frederickkrasey.com/relationship/ This is a blue print of values and beliefs that tend towards harmony and love. I offer it here as a resource that people who lack training on how to live in peace with others may find useful. It is my intention to create as many resources for people to expand their consciousness and alleviate suffering caused by ignorance.

It is not the relationship that is ever the problem, it is the way we are RELATING that depicts the outcomes. If we respond instead of react we will experience far more harmonious outcomes. We create all of our woes and joys, we are the authors of our highest aspirations and our lowest debasing thoughts and activities.

Take time to reflect on the contents of this beautiful poem by Walter Rinder – Spectrum of Love and you will find new neural pathways of behavior and relatedness. This coupled with other resources and information on the causes of limiting beliefs and behavior that doesn’t edify will be a pathway to more intimacy and longevity of friendship. It is my hope that this inspires your love to greater heights.

Authenticity

In the world of desired recognition so many live a life of cut and paste, or plagiarism, no real contribution from the heart or soul only a mish-mash of fragmented understanding stolen to be used to enhance the ego and promote falsity.

So many people now claim to be experts in a field that they have not spent the appropriate time in love devotion and surrender. Article writers, promoters, ghost writers, publicists all raise the profile of those seeking to be identified as credible and the masters of a particular subject or even worst still; use the work and intellect of others to appear an authority or master of some area of expertise where they have no skill or mastery. Inauthenticity is a disease of the real.

It builds a labyrinth of deceit and confusion. One authentic gesture, expression or act contributes to the whole, all the rest is regurgitated mental and emotional vomit, detracting from raising consciousness and awareness.

An authentic life is art, poetry music and a contribution. An inauthentic life is a shame and a waste leading many into a wild goose chase with no real outcome or victory. Think about it. So much to do, so little time.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is one of the master-keys to life.
So many people live a life of self degradation and suffering which is brought on by ignorance.
All unforgiveness stems from the lack of taking responsibility.
In our lives we are not always to blame for things, however we are responsible at some level for all that our life encompasses.
We attract situations into our lives and are reciprocally the inverse relationship of other peoples circumstances and situations.

We play a divine dance and partner with each other in all the played out joys and sorrows in one another’s lives.

The main ingredient for the suffering and hurt we cause one another is pure ignorance as each one of us play a turn as the perpetrator and the victim. It seems that an endless cycle continues until one decides not to play the game.

The only exit from the game is unconditional love through true forgiveness.
If one chooses not to forgive then one has decided literally to play with him or her self.

Open, closed or arrested

William James, (late 1800,s) deemed the father of psychology has been credited with many sayings however two that stick in my mind are.

“Most people live a life of quiet desperation” and the other one is

“What we see out  there as normalcy is actually a state of arrested development”.

What does this mean? it is simple.

Open means teachable, one who considers possibility and has the power to rise above paradox to see the many perspectives of world view and/or the solutions to conflict.

Closed is easy, it is one who thinks he knows everything, or doesn’t want to know and cherishes ignorance and is also adverse to being taught or helped to see anything other than their own world view.

Now arrested is something else. It is when either state is possible and a good way to describe it is like when you are watching a movie and someone has pressed the pause button. Many people are stuck like this and it is not until you press that button do you find out whether or not they are closed or open, sometimes the person responds and becomes open and sometimes they have the button fused closed.

Knowing what state you are in and the people you interact with improves communication. This produces greater possibilities of more valuable use of your energy and improves the quality of relatedness with others. The more people realize that these options of ways of being exist the more chance there is to transform our way of being-ness and expand in consciousness. We are entering a period in history where openness is needed more than ever before.

My thoughts

The two main things I see lacking in the world today is wisdom and maturity. These two sides of the same coin and the widespread ignorance of humanity is the causation of all woe.

It would be wonderful if the people in this world would be open and teachable however so many people are stuck in their closed or arrested states.

This site is dedicated to raising consciousness and awareness.

It is not eastern, or religious it is simple experiential knowledge that hopefully helps others find their way through the miasma of confusion where selfishness and stupidity rob so many of health, wealth and happiness.

This is simply a site devoted to love and gratitude for a life that I am truly blessed for.
