And in the spiritual reality it turns out that all aspects of a person, such as the font, the body, the tendencies, defects and aspirations have to do with what happened just before. In previous lives. Even the flow of events, meetings and places in which we pass through has to do in a meaningful and not random way with a more or less remote past.
Everything in this life is designed in order to mature forces that were not strong enough in lives previous to our innermost being, to our ego that wears from time to time different bodies and personalities to make a valuable growth experience.
And so we can consider that the trends, the positive impulses in our hearts and minds should send us in the direction of growth of our qualities, the spiritual qualities: strength, ability of wanting something good and achieving it, planning and creative thinking, the motivation of the heart needed to make with love something that does not concern only us, but the others, other creatures and the Earth. Everything in this life conspires to send us exactly in some of these directions in order to acquire forces through the experiences that are in front of us. Carefully directed by the loving Beings that guide us.
And it is nice to discover that the external obstacles of life, as well as physical and mental defects, anxieties, fears, angers and insecurities, together with certain events that seem negative, are nothing more than loads prepared so that having difficulties to think, feel or do certain things, we put more forces ... forces that develop as new ones where before we had not any of them ...
If we do not let others annihilate us, we can finally consider together our deepest aspirations and the obstacles that we have to achieve them, and understand the correct formula of growth in this life.
And then we could think about the inner obstacles, mental or physical, or external ones as opportunities to exercise and create more spiritual forces. That we would not have matured and involved if not solicited by certain negative physical, internal or external factors.
This is the sense of pain and obstacles: leading us to unleash forces that we did not have, both in this life and in previous lives. And that in those lives have produced problems, pain, sometimes disasters, which now return to us in different forms because we mature the forces of thought and reflection, awareness, love and compassion, will of realization ... that we did not have before.
And everything happens according to the mysterious, wise and wonderful mechanism of karma. That each time from different locations gives us back the chance to do again, producing our own strength, what in the past we were not able to do.
And then if we look at those faults we do not like of us, those fears and those anxieties or insecurities that trouble us, or those life events that seem unlucky ... we can finally begin to consider them positively as precious and precise growth opportunities. And exercise powers, acting as our spirit, that still need to grow. And we will accept better, to use them to the maximum in a positive way, those characteristics and those opportunities that only want us to become more loving, more aware and more operational in a good and creative direction.
There is nothing wrong with us and what happens to us ... you just have to try not to get annihilated by what appears negative and use it with confidence, to make it the best experience possible. At most of our forces. While taking into account the fact that we are sometimes taken to the limit of our current forces, but that nothing more than what we can do is required.
Around us there is always some invisible but attentive guide that collects our efforts to help transform them into new positive faculties of our spirit.
Tiring? For sure, but only by working hard we’ll see real new forces grow and become better. Where there is no stress, fatigue, or conscious will, there is no growth.
We come to this beautiful Earth just to attend these fields of growth of our spiritual qualities. And these are just brief "working holiday" ... In fact, we are citizens of heaven, a dimension in which these hardships, these defects, these problems simply are not needed any more.
But where we can live more fully and effectively thanks to the faculty that we acquired coming once in a while to mature strength and quality on Earth.
But from time to time even the smallest lives on Earth are less hard, because every time we come back in the blue planet we do it by bringing back the positive effects of our work ... and from life to life we are always better, more loving, more creative, more aware of it.
Well ... let’s believe! It's all right ... let’s take the opportunities, even the painful ones, as something precious and we will have the effects benefits for us and for others!
Courage.
