The belief in problems

One of the biggest mistakes we make is when we listen to our divided mind, and believe in lack or in need. Living as if we were separated frightens us and makes us think that things can happen to us regardless of our own will. We feed our desire associated with the belief in lack, which makes us feel divided, and anxious.

We come to imagine that in our life we can lack the most elementary, we believe in scarcity, in that there is not enough for everyone, and this makes us accumulate things in anticipation of future evils.

Furthermore, we do not realize that we ourselves constantly create our reality, that our small Universe is the faithful reflection of our mental state and that everything that surrounds us is a mental projection.

We attract to our lives a series of people and circumstances that create us problems, and we think that they are the problem, and we are the victims.

“Only you can deprive yourself of something. Do not resist this fact, for it is truly the beginning of enlightenment. Remember also that the denial of this simple fact takes many forms, and that you must learn to recognize them and to oppose them without exception and firmly. This is a crucial step in the process of awakening.”

The initial phases of this commitment are often quite painful, because by not blaming what is outside, there is a marked tendency to house it inside. At the beginning it is difficult to realize that this is exactly the same, since there is no difference between what is inside and what is outside.

We have to make this point very clear in the process of awakening that we can not be aware of something if we refuse to accept that it is possible. We live in the reality in which we believe to live in and, therefore, we fabricate it. We can deny that this is true, but we can not avoid that so it is.

The mind creates continuously. It does not stop, it is always occupied in trifles, in small things to keep us busy and, in this way, distract us, so that we are not realizing that we are always thinking about the same thing,

turning over any issue, believing that only we can find the solution. This is how a mind is living, that believes to be separate, and therein lies the source of all problems. Stories repeat themselves because we give the same solutions to the same problems in an endless circle.

Every problem is the expression of a divided and separate mind, it is the manifestation that something external can cause us harm and suffering.

“What makes you happy causes the ego pain, and as long as you have doubts about what you are, you will continue to confuse happiness with pain.”

As long as we continue to think that this confusion is possible, situations for living that belief will be presented in our lives.

“A problem can manifest itself in many ways, and this is what it will do as long as the problem persists. There is no use in trying to solve it in a special way. It will be presented again and again until it has been definitively resolved and will no longer arise in any way. Only then will you be free of it.”

The only problem, the basis of all problems, is the belief in the separation of the Source from which we come. This error makes us believe that it is possible for someone to win and for someone to lose. If so, the separation from God would be real and, indeed, He would be cruel. Let us heal this perception and let us suffer no more. Let‘s give this perception to the Spirit of God and let Him remind us who our Source is, to which we are always united.

Every problem is an error. It is an injustice against the Son of God, and, therefore it is not true.

“You are in an impossible situation only because you think and believe it is possible to be in such a situation.”

“The Spirit of God will give you the answer for each specific problem as long as you believe that the problems are specific. The answer is both one and many as long as you continue to believe that who is One is many.”

Abundance will manifest itself in our lives when we feel and understand that we have everything, because we are part of God and God wants us to have everything.
