How sometimes we get in our own way too often
As spirituality starts to become a word trend, it is crucial to have the power of discernment to see and recognize what is real from what is fake and fraudulent. Too many people follow trends just to fit in without properly meeting themselves first.
Why? Because it is easy to blend. Because it is easy to skip the important steps when we perceive that nobody is looking. Well, someone’s always watching. The universe is always watching. You cannot lie about or pretend an energy signature or a frequency.
Perhaps you may be able to bypass for a short period of time. But it cannot last longer than that. You cannot hold that energy and frequency for the long term. Eventually, the truth will be seen, will be exposed. No matter what. Because truth transcends.
So be mindful of those who use spirituality as a camouflage to open doors they have yet to be permitted in. That they have yet to meet these rites of passage. The soul has yet to unlock the higher parts of self.
On a smaller scale, we may use spiritual language to cloak and bypass the inner work and shadow work necessary. We use this language to avoid the truth of ourselves.
In the spiritual community, you may hear people say, “If it’s meant to be, it will be.” But some may use that phrase to bypass the work necessary to manifest what they seek or to camouflage what they want to keep hidden—what is really going on underneath.
To understand spirituality and to understand universal law, you must first understand you are the co-creator. You are creating your own reality, your own universe with the universe. People misunderstand and misinterpret “attracting their desires” and “manifesting” as meaning thinking it, wishing it, and doing nothing to have it.
All these phrases people toss around—“I don’t chase, I attract,” or “If it’s meant to be, it’ll be”—can be used to spiritually bypass the work, and lead to a streak of laziness. Yet people wonder why their desires do not come in.
Because you are literally avoiding doing the work to reap what you desire. You are skipping important steps. When I say work, this is in terms of energy, which can look like many different things depending on what you are seeking to manifest.
The question you should ask yourself is, “Am I putting forth any energy toward what I am desiring?”
You must make effort and put energy toward your desires. That’s when the universe will meet you halfway. To only wish and do nothing is not manifesting, it is not attracting, no matter how much you tell yourself that.
In doing so, you are actually disabling your manifestation. You must put forth energy and effort for your manifestation to build with the universe. Sometimes that effort is working on embodiment—embodying that energy, embodying the person that receives what you seek. That takes internal effort—inner work—to achieve that.
And to be clear embodiment is not copying. You cannot copy someone and bypass that as embodiment. Essence and energy cannot be duplicated, replicated, or copy. You must harness your own power and energy to match the energy you seek to align to.
What is currently blocking you from what you seek to manifest? What energy, effort, or next steps shall you put forth to meet that manifestation? To close the gap as much as possible with the universe as a co-creator.
Once you close the gap as much as possible, and did your part—the work necessary toward your manifestation—only then can you say, “If it’s meant to be, it shall be.”
This is when you have put forth your intention fully into the universe, and it’s time for the universe to take the lead in the manifestation. This is your point of surrender. To allow the natural energy to flow. To allow the universe to work its magic.
After all these points are covered, only then can you truly say, “If it’s meant to be, it shall be.”
