I am wondering to what extent this holds true. I have seen it in my personal case for empath narcissist dynamic, gender dynamic, and at work. What baffles me is attacks from entities and being susceptible to implants, evil eyes etc? Is there a world where with enough consciousness modification, no protection field would be necessary?
Is there a boundary to this principle? Personal responsibility vs something is wrong with the system? Can we will ourselves out of experiencing war, partition etc?
“What we are” is an abstract concept.
On a divine level, we are complete — everything exists within us.
But as consciousness descends and our personality and incarnation take form, this is no longer the case.
Here we are deeply influenced by many factors: our lineage, the egregores around us, and even the people we interact with daily.
For example, I used to love going to restaurants with friends because I truly don’t enjoy cooking. But at some point I became more sensitive and realized that when people eat — whether outside or within their family — the subconscious is much more open and receptive. In that state, we can absorb beliefs from the environment and from the people around us.
Now I almost always eat only with people very close to me, and only those with whom I have harmonious relationships. If I’m with someone with whom there is tension or unresolved issues, I only drink water.
That’s how deeply our environment influences our decisions, emotions, and thoughts.
So how can we take greater ownership of our lives?
Through directing our attention and doing conscious inner work.
Our mornings should begin with clear intentions for the day — what we want to experience and create. We need to continuously plan our lives, write down what we desire, and clarify our direction. By doing so, we activate the realities and patterns that lead us toward what we want.
You can imagine that throughout the day — throughout life — we have a control panel with 100 buttons in front of us, and we are required to press some of them. Each choice leads to a different reality. If we refuse to choose and avoid taking responsibility, random buttons will be pressed for us — and the results may not be what we like.
Would you like to share more about what’s troubling you, so we can be more helpful?
This was more a philosophical enquiry, to see where to draw lines in terms of thinking. I see there are people who are in war torn countries and I wonder how much of that experience is in their control.
Historically why did colonized countries experience colonization? This is personal since I come from a colonized nation and know the havoc it wreaked on my country and how much resources were depleted. Collective Karma? It really irks me when descendants of colonizers disrespect and defame the colonized and appear holier than thou. Vengeance does arise in mind, yet I try to remember the bigger picture. And the Justice field is really helpful in this regard. Not my will, but Thy will be done.
Closer to myself present day, I go out and experience violence in a certain neighborhood but not in another that might be adjacent, how much of it is due to me and how much just due to accident or something else.
I am also curious about this. When people say that we “attract the same things,” I wonder how far that idea actually goes. Does experiencing illness, infectious diseases, conditions, accidents, or disasters also happen because of an individual’s fault, or because of unresolved problems from their earlier life?
50/50 — there are illnesses, discomforts, and sufferings that exist, for example, because a person lacks certain vitamins and minerals, has an unhealthy lifestyle — such as lack of sunlight, poor hydration, eating dirty food full of toxins. These are things that can cause illnesses. Strong stress as well, fears. If a person does not respect their body, does not give it rest, and overworks themselves.
But there are also others that come from our family lineage, and more rarely from our karma. And unfortunately, nowadays there are already some that come from frequencies emitted by various towers in cities.
