Talking to your Spirit, 11. January, Jack

Most people in the world believe that human beings have got some kind of soul or spirit. A kind of divine connection or at least the possibility to have it. During thousands of years religions have taught man to pray to God. Or to practice certain rituals. Or to meditate to create this divine contact.

The current time seems to have increased the interest for this matter. This means that the numbers of people inside or outside religions who are spiritually active actually are increasing. The Mayan Calendar predicts a kind of breakthrough for human consciousness in the increasing spiritual interest seems to fit into that.

The open question has always been: How can I be sure that I am really talking to my spirit. How can I be sure that it is not something that I just make up myself? And that is really good question I think.

I personally believe in a spirit – I actually talk to it and it talks to me, so I don’t need further evidence for that. It is the best advisor that I have ever had.

It seems to me, that human beings have got a spirit – a kind of guardian angel – and that spirit is connected to the person. It is like and wise parent to us and suggest us what to do. It also answers our questions – if we ask any. Some people would maybe call it our personal divine coach or advisor. The spirit is also very powerful and able to fulfil the dreams you have – like the spirit in Aladins Lamp.

So let us take a look at how we may have things organized to have a better understanding of how we can make it work even better.

In our daily life we experience that we have a body. We use the body to take actions and experience things. We go to work and on vacation. We fall in love and marry and get kids. Some of us compete to become the best in whatever interest we have and some of us just want to participate in numerous events. And along the way we experience feelings. Feelings of joy, happiness, laughter but also feelings of grief, anger and rejection. All this is part of what we call life. We need the body to experience the feelings. And we need the feelings to know that we are actually alive.

The body is run by the minds. We have a conscious mind and an unconscious mind.

The conscious mind is the logical mind. It collects information all the time by using the senses.

The mind compares this information with what the unconscious mind has stored already and by doing that it knows how to react. So the conscious mind creates meaning in our life by making all the decisions – we can call it the decision maker.

The unconscious mind is more a kind of computer and has stored the memory of all the events we have experienced in our life and what meaning we created from those events. So whenever a similar event occurs the unconscious mind has a suggestion of how to respond just by looking into the past and compare it to a similar event. It is as an auto-pilot for us and is able to run our unconscious reactions and the body without we think about. And example could be driving a car.

I guess that you can drive a car for hours without even to think about what you are doing. You just have your unconscious auto-pilot do the job.

Inside the minds we communicate all the time. We do internal self talk, hear sounds, see pictures and have feelings. We can call all this for internal communication. The mind actually makes a lot of “noise” inside us all the time.

This means that if you would like to communicate with your spirit – you need to quiet this noise down, so you can receive the signal. Many people use meditation or the like to get into a state where it is possible. And later on when we have trained for some time we may be able to communicate spontaneously with the spirit and benefit from that.

This is what I will be talking about in Copenhagen, Oslo, Stavanger, Stockholm and Gothenburg in February during my talks.
