Personal Importance and personal power

Copy of At the Arch One of the objectives of Toltec wisdom is to change our point of creation from our mind to our spirit. In order to do that we must decrease our personal importance while increasing our personal power. They are inversely proportionate – the more you have of one the less you have of the other.

As an exercise begin to notice whether you are in personal importance or personal power. Developing discernment is very important part of your process if you really want to achieve personal freedom.

So, as you move through your day ask yourself often: Am I coming from a place of love, personal power or from a place of fear, personal importance?

Just observe, avoid judging yourself for where you are.

Personal Importance

Another aspect of living a life in domination is the concept of personal importance. When you are in personal importance you are always judging yourself and others. Your esteem comes from external sources and is very transitory. You aren’t free to make choices; you are a victim of your thoughts and beliefs.

In a state of personal importance, you have no real power, because you are disconnected from your essence and the universe. Any sense of power you have is an illusion. Personal importance tells you that you’re right and others are wrong while it also tells you that you’re wrong and others are right. In this state, the mitote of the mind is in full gear. Because personal importance is part of the illusion that we are separate, it lies.

As long as you are in personal importance, it is almost impossible to find a sense of peace. You are seeing the world as place of struggle and divisiveness.

Personal Power

When you are operating from personal power, you are living from your heart or your spiritual center. You are making your choices consciously and making them based on love instead of fear.

Being in personal power, you view the universe from the perspective of dominion. You know you are part of that creative energy, part of the Creator, or as some people call it, God. Because you are connected to your source, you truly do have the power to effect change; you are part of the truth rather than the illusion. You know that you are responsible for the results of your decisions, and that you can use outcomes that you don’t like as an opportunity to learn and grow. As you build your personal power, you increase your ability to access the divine and your vision of reality becomes clearer. You begin to see things as they truly are.

So, what do you want?

That is such a simple question, the way we answer it affects our life profoundly and yet so many people I work with have difficulty with it. Generally when I ask people what they want I get a litany of what they don’t want.

Toltec wisdom reminds us of the power of our words. Ancient Hawaiian spirituality is based on the power of words. The Hawaiian language has fewer letters and had fewer words. They knew the power contained in each sound, in each word and in our intent. That is why they always lived aloha, they lived from love.

The law of attraction was a way of life for the Hawaiians, the Toltec and the ancient ones. Harnessing awareness, transformation and intent is a powerful way to consciously use the law of attraction.

When people explore the question of what they want using the three masteries, I suggest that rather than get specific, they get in touch with what a certain thing would bring into their life. If they want a relationship what would change if they had one? Often times people reply by saying they would feel loved, secure, nurtured and safe. I suggest they begin by generating those feelings on a regular basis and rather than focusing on the relationship set their intent to feel loved, safe, secure and nurtured.

Setting your intent will assist you in creating what you do want as well as seeing how you stop yourself from having it. Use your awareness to notice what you focus on most of the time. Chances are if you don’t have enough money you focus on not having more often than the feeling of abundance.

I can guarantee if you focus energetically on what you DO want, more often than on what you don’t want you will have it. Bottom line, whatever is in your life was invited into your life by your filter system and what isn’t in your life isn’t there because it isn’t consistent with your beliefs, agreements and assumptions.

A great exercise is to carry around a small pad and note whenever you have a thought or feeling about what you don’t want, Write it down with the intent of changing that feeling and then think about how it will feel when you have what you do want. Maybe even create a word picture of how you would feel living the life of your dreams and place it in the back of your pad. Read it every time you make a note of a contrary thought.
