The Golden Spiral
Chapter Thirty Four
When does my Healing start in my Life?
Human Archetypes and their effects in Life
[A tribute to two of the greatest among healers and writers Caroline Myss and Gary Zukav]
When I first read the various books by these two great authors, I was much fascinated by the way these two treated the human basic issues such as archetypes, core and internalized versus externalized powers. Inspired by these two authors, I chose to pick up a few lines of their work and elaborate in my own understanding and put forth these ideas along with my other ideas like "Prejudices of Self" in Chapter Thirty Five.
Whenever a friend or an acquaintance came to me, seeking any answers for their current or past life issues or even about where there future is designed to happen and in which form it would unfold for each of them, I chose to show them what they really needed to know, being as direct as possible. I don't put forth my ideas to them in a crude way or in an impolite way, but sometimes the words themselves strike them as if they reached the wrong person, at a time, when actually they need to be with only themselves.
(My
one year old Arjun, trying to click the remote control using a very old
fashioned Nokia Mobile phone handset. Was he seeing some UFO in
the background somewhere in the park?)
That is actually the main purpose of writing this chapter. To provide the person an insight that would make one look deeper into oneself and ponder, work through issues and associate them with human archetypes or power centers within.
But even before one reads further on this I would like to state here :-
I understand all your pains and have great sympathy and wish you could overcome the sense of (a weird) "Attachment to pain". Most of our friends , suffer from this sort of an attitude. We all get emotionally attached to our "Co-created pains" with the laws of nature helping us rigidify these painful experiences to a point where from we don't want to shed them. This process is called 'Shedding all facades"
For a moment, drop all Fears, Drop all attachments including the need to find a solution through astrological means. (I know I am talking about something, that may confuse you, further, but don't be.) Your healing doesn't really start until you drop the attachments to your Co-created 'Fears' and 'Results' there of. When you first looked at the 'Court dates' (Commonly for frauds you have done, or haven't but accused or indicted in / about, or breaks in relationships, divorces, monetary issues etc) from way back, you saw these things manifest, but you got stuck looking at the menace of going to prison maybe. If you had looked harder enough, farther down the corridor, you would have seen 'Help would also follow, after you face what was in store for you"
How to tackle these?
Take a hard look at yourself, don't draw others into your own drama, like your parents are not your creation. Nor are you of theirs. You chose this journey all by yourself. The Soul chooses its own journey. There are certain Archetypal personalities we all live. Outlined below are some of them, I am writing these in my forthcoming book to be called "The Golden Spiral" part of that is on the website.
Archetype # 1: Self Saboteur: - Those personality issues of self, that create this mode of thought process, constantly putting ourselves into trouble with our reality versus illusion strife. This is an inner most strife of a special kind. Our thoughts create our own set of realities and illusions. When we align too much with realities our own created illusions start to challenge us seriously, they pull us away from certain realities.
On the other hand-- when we align too much with illusions (Which most creative artist do fall for, as it includes their terrific ability to co-create a drama for self and others become their dramatists as well, they draw others into their personal life drama. After a while, it bothers the other characters to the extent that they want nothing more of you.
Archetype # 2:- Rescuer Archetype :- Most of us want to "Help" others be rescued from their 'falls into the pit" by not even thinking that we are bringing upon ourselves these falls, by constantly being in that energy and surrounded by fallacies of our own, that we can "Rescue the other". There is no other, all we see in others is a reflection of our own denials in ourselves.
The next is very important for most of you who feel that these words resonate with you. Never carry this one inside of you if you do.
Archetype # 3 Inner-Child Molested Archetype :- Always feel, my parents did not treat me equally with my other co born siblings. This has to be dealt with much compassion and love. Release all thoughts about your bro/ sis that Bother you. This way you will not end up co-creating your realities full of hatred. Here we live in the constant field of negativity created by our thoughts on "I was molested emotionally as a child, I was abused then, now I want to be the abuser" Release such deeper feelings. We have multi-layered realities. these emotional aberrations go and rigidify on our seventh level inside ourselves.
They seldom appear to others whoa re even in close contact with you. Sometimes even your own spouse might mistake your inability to express love fully and freely, due to this "Inner Child Molested Archetype" if you were not in this life, maybe you were...but you have lived many lives before. We carry these from many layers of existence.
Archetype # 4: Prostitute Archetype :- This is a personality issue, where in we think, we own the body, so we can do anything with that. We can abuse it or burn it or love it. Our body is our 'Temple', treat it with care and with no abuse. Allow it to express itself to you, the Core. Don't think that I don't have compassion for you, this is not an act of dispassionate feelings, but it reveals the realities versus illusion, intention versus flow, energy versus consciousness conflicts within ourselves.
Identify your root cause of troubles. As Patanjali rightly said, "If any thought bothers you, go to its root cause, bring it out and then don't remain attached to it, release it smoothly, so that it doesn't bother you anymore. Don't form a relationship with "That which bothers you" I am sure you will come out of your troubles, with diligence and study your inner issues assiduously, don't be doubtful about your fears and 'Walk deeper into your fears and walk steadily and hold on to nobody else than your own intuition" Unlearn what all you have been programmed to act in a situation like this. Drop your conditioned mind. Stop being a poor-me-victimized person, try to dream Bigger always and see how things change around you. If you don't dream bigger, you would remain a small person in life.
Stay supple, don't be convinced by anything you witness, as both Suffering and happiness are temporary by nature. "All that is spiritual and material emanate from my Being, ME" says Krishna in Bhagawad Geeta. Resolve to that statement fully. Stand in your own love, treat each of these experiences as a gift, stand taller by constantly standing in the act of "Gratitude" for everybody who brought you these unique experiences, that way you will Embrace all and not have difficulty to release what ISN'T yours anyway. But if you continue to live in dependence, then you ruin your own creativity.
I hope my words make sense to you. These are not high fundamental writings at all. these are Core issues I have dealt with myself in my life as I progressed. Just imagine where I was and where I am today. All self made, co created Always remember that you too have a beautiful family. you can do it. that is the only thing you have to get attached to, "I can Do it" and I will Do it
Peace
