Freeing Ourselves From Memories

Yes, it's true it takes great effort to let go of old, painful memories. Memories that grew so old inside, that we've become them; the way old trees are shaped and conditioned by the rains, the winds, the sun and the soil.

We are not free if these memories continue to play at the background, although the events that were associated with them were long gone. Memories from a moment ago, memories from last Sunday, memories from childhood, ancestors memories, past life memories - we have a huge cauldron of memories, stirring and bubbling, and playing in our unconscious, which then creates the reality we live in. Oh! How unconscious we are of the dramas inside us!

For me, I make efforts to clear them. I free them through Ho'oponopono, a Hawaiian technique created by Morrnah Simeona, and famously taught by Dr Hew Len and Dr Joe Vitale. Ho'oponopono means "to make right" or "to rectify an error". It's a process of forgiveness, repentance, and transformation that uses these 4 simple phrases:

I'm Sorry.
Please Forgive Me.
I Love You.
Thank You.

I repeat these 4 lines (sometimes, together with other Ho'oponopono clearing tools), until I know that the memories are released, and that I've entered the Zero or Emptiness state described by Dr Hew Len. When I am at Zero, I am one with Divinity; I am at the place of Origin. At Zero, I am free of memories. My cells know it, my mind knows it, and my spirit knows it.

During these times of great change, where a new Planet Earth is being birthed, the old history of humanity must be released. We, collectively, must make the effort to free ourselves from these old, dysfunctional memories. This great effort starts with every individual as each of us are responsible for our experience, and for creating a new world for ourselves.

It's time. We are being called.

I'm Sorry.
Please Forgive Me.
I Love You.
Thank You.

Peace begins with me.

Believe In Yourself

When I shared the image above in my Facebook timeline, a friend asked, "Did the Buddha said this?" I answered, "I don't know. It's not mentioned here."

But I do know who said something similar to me years ago. I was just starting out with my work, and had a lot of self doubts whether I could do it. I shared my doubts with a friend.

"Would my other friends believe in me?
Would they think I am crazy?
Would people put their trust in me that I can help them?
Can I actually do this as a living?
Will I make enough?
Etc, etc, etc."

My friend listened to me jabbering away, and then quietly said, "Even if the whole world do not believe in you, you must believe in yourself."

My dear friend put me right back on track, that day, many years ago. And, I am glad to say, I believe in myself enough to continue doing the work that I love.

So, if you're caught in the stream of self doubts thoughts, just remember the quote above. Or, this message from the mermaid:

Then, let go of those worries and struggles.

"Once you believe in yourself, put your mind and body in a peaceful place, then allow the Universe to work in a perfect way it knows how's
- Dr Wayne Dyer

Believe in Yourself. Trust. Allow.

And so it is.
