Awakening Your Intuitive Knowing, Part IX

This is Part IX of a ten part blog. Part I begins on 10/15/07. In order to better understand what follows, it would be best to read the previous parts.

It became crystal clear to me at that point that “the sound of one hand clapping” is the sound/feeling of total oneness with the object of your attention. This is the sound of oneness, of “one hand clapping.” And this is what intuition is all about

It is about becoming one with the object of your attention. No longer is there a sense of separation or duality, but there is now “a becoming one with” and, therefore, a “knowing.” No, it is not with you mind that you know, but with your heart! Actually the etymology of the word intuition is “to see or go within,”

So when you want to read or connect for someone or with something, you become one with them/it. When you want to connect or be with yourself, you become one with your Self. No, not you ego or mind self, but your Higher or God/Goddess Self. It is from there that you really know. It is from there that real connection occurs. This is the place of the Embrace, of Love.

Otherwise you are caught up in an emotion we call love, but please understand that Love is not an emotion. It is a state of being. Love is not a dependent state of being. It is an independent state of being. Love is not attached state of being. It is a detached state of being. Love is a state of being that comes from the Heart and not from the head. It is a state of being that comes from the Soul and not from the ego.

What in heaven’s name is he talking about? One of the biggest problems people have when they are working with others in a healing capacity or even just in a relationship with another is something called co-dependency. What is he mumbling about here?

If you want to intuitively read another person, you really have to be very careful about what you are doing and how and why you are doing it. When you are with another individual either in a relationship, in a healing setting or in a reading setting, be it whether they are asking for your feedback or whether you are just “tuning in” in order to sense what is going on, regardless, you must be there for them as an objective mirror and nothing else. You are not there to be their authority.

As well, you are not there to prove or validate yourself, that is, to prove ,b>to yourself or to them that you can “read”--that is purely ego “stuff.” And if you are doing it for this reason, be assured that you will have your energies sapped.

Also you are not there to heal them. They have to choose to heal. So often, when we do this kind of work, we want to heal the person. We not only want to prove to them that we are good, but, also, that we are a gifted healer. That is all ego! Let go of this way of thinking; it will get you nowhere. It will only drain you!
