I recently finished reading The Celestine Prophecy written by James Redfield. The insights in
this book read all to true for me. At one part of the book the author talks
about the struggle for power that humans can have. Redfield said that you can
leave a conversation and you either feel elated and strong or weak and
powerless. I find this true and it is
due to an energy exchange that is happening. If people cut themselves off from
the eternal source of energy that comes from being open and appreciative of the
beauty all around us at all times then the only other way to recharge is to
steal others energy.
I have found that
dealing with my injury I have become extremely sensitive to people’s words and
to the energy they emit. There was one time when a stranger was talking aggressively
to me and I just started crying. I gave into this person’s drama. He was
playing an intimidator role and I automatically fell into the poor me role.
When in response I should bring his actions to consciousness. I am learning to
open myself up to the endless supply of energy. It has been a journey these
last few years but I have always had sports as a way to top myself up with
energy. Sports are based on a struggle for power, who is the top dog? There is
the desire to control and dominate each other in order to “win the game” and I
have taken this mentality into everything I do. I placed way too much
importance and sourced too much of my confidence from my physical capacity. It
has been frustrating but perhaps a blessing in disguise to learn how to love
myself unconditionally. Love that has no reason, love that has no parametres
and love that exists because I am open this endless supply of earth’s beauty!
Redfield then began talking about romantic relationships.
During these romantic relationships people can gain addictions to each other
however this is not a recipe for a relationship of longevity. If two people are
one half circle on their own they will come together and basically form one
whole person. The energy that is exchanged between them is large at the
beginning and there is what I know of as the “honeymoon” phase. But his
honeymoon phase comes to an end because the energy that is just going back and
forth between the couple dissipates. However during this time of addiction to
one another each person has shut themselves off from receiving the earth’s
supply of energy. Now the couple falls into noticeable patterns of the struggle
for power. To avoid addiction to one another people should only come together
when on their own they are a full circle; they have unconditional love for
themselves. Then when two full circles come together they form a sort of super
being; two beings that vibrate separately on their own and when together there
is limitless energy being circulated.
I know that is a cliché line, “to love one oneself
unconditionally before loving another person” but it is in good reason that we
hear this so often. Even if the lovers are to come to an end there is that
eternal love vibrating within to allow one to always feel whole!
