Real Happiness Vs.The Mirage of Happiness

 Since centuries, human beings have been trying to find a route to happiness by methods which are externally focused. We have been seeking to succeed in the external world, hoping we would find happiness with our efforts but usually, we get disillusioned because our vision of happiness turns out to be a mirage. 

A mirage in a desert is an illusory picture of water. It gives travelers in the desert an indication that an oasis is nearby. 

Similarly, our success gives us hope that happiness is nearby, but in life, we keep finding mirages, not real water. The oasis of happiness seems to move further away inspite of passing one exam after another to meet the demands of traditional success. But, following success or power or fame does not automatically lead to happiness.

As a human race, we have focused on technologically developing the tools of happiness, but we have not yet found how to develop happiness, per se. It is as if we are desperately trying to catch our nose from behind the head when it can be caught easily from the front. 

From our soul’s perspective, we are taking unnecessarily challenging roads to happiness by seeking external success, money and power while grossly ignoring our soul needs of evolution. 

Yet, empirical evidence proves that these traditional routes to success have failed in leading us into a happy world. 

In spite of the technological kingdoms that our industrialists have created, we face the same jealousies, fears, betrayals and traumas as people did thousands of years back, for example, when Cleopatra was alive. 

Kingdoms have largely been replaced by democracies and battlefields by boardrooms but the manipulative power games continue. 

We seek to be successful managers, teachers or doctors without caring about whether the paths of success we pursue help us feel more content or compromised, within ourselves, as souls! 

In the rat race to succeed, happiness is usually left far behind as we choose to be like rats running after cheese than peace, forgetting that we have evolved above being just animals.

As long as we stay limited to thinking that buying external objects of comfort and security would ensure our happiness, we would somewhere fail to evolve above our animal ancestors who were purely focused on the external gratification of their bodily needs.

Due to the empirical evidence available, we can’t blindly follow the methods of pursuing happiness which have been founded by our ancestors, because our history does not prove that humanity has led an emotionally successful existence. Instead of finding peace, health or happiness, with our comfort levels rising on the physical plane;our levels of stress, tension, loneliness, diseases and depressions have risen, over the centuries. 

It may seem daunting to change our conventional methods of thinking. Yet, the established route of finding happiness, focuses more on the negative, than on the positive, aspects of life. But, this focus on the negative aspect of life, i.e., on what is missing in comparison with another, virtually, reverses the process of reaching happiness, individually, or as a whole.

A shift of basic thinking towards focusing more on the positive aspects of life, than the negative, becomes necessary to reverse the damage on human thought which a war torn history, has already caused.

Human thought is influenced by habit and tradition. If we focus on the energy or feelings underlying our thoughts, we would realize that we have been thinking the same way over centuries , and repeatedly manifesting the same emotional experiences, though the external form of our world has changed. 

Thus, swords were replaced by guns and horses by motorbikes but the underlying intentions still remain the same. 

Our traditional role models have been war heroes who killed others to survive themselves. It may be noted here that on a practical plane, our role models are not our Gods. That is because we worship Gods but we do not try to be them. We place Gods on a pedestal of superiority, miracles and sacrifice and we ask them for blessings and gifts; while we try to be like our mortal war heroes who acquired fame, power and money in their competitive pursuits.

But, there is no account of whether these warriors became happier by appropriating greater wealth or fame in external terms. Or whether the wars they fought helped people become more emotionally equipped to fight their internal traumas and evolve as souls? 

The money which came from wars was usually used in fighting more wars, than in upliftment of human consciousness towards better management of survival needs.

Emotional betterment was left to chance as we looked for happiness outside the mind. Is it possible to be unhappy, sad or craving for love within and find happiness outside by eating or 

drinking? Can just pleasing the body make us happy when we are life-force creative particles in our essence? If being animal like was satisfying , why would we need to evolve towards creating happiness, as souls in a physical experience ?

The ever increasing restlessness in societies, the rise in domestic violence, criminal tendencies, alcohol and drug addictions, medical 

bills and incurable diseases , prove that escaping the needs of soul evolution does not help. But, we are conditioned into believing that 

the soul does not exist, and that only earning money, fame or power matters in creating happiness.

Charles Darwin proposed the theory of Survival of the fittest for animals but human beings still operate on that principle, by habit,

because they feel they have to win by being above others in terms of money, which essentially represents food and shelter. 

The unconscious insecurity continues from the animal mind that for one to live, another has to die – be it physically, financially or emotionally. That is the basis of competitive thinking.

Yet, being competitive has not led the human race towards higher levels of happiness, peace or ethereal positivity. To be happy, from within, as souls, we need to discover our humaneness as distinct from animal instincts.

Creation of Reality From The Soul's Perspective

  This blog is an excerpt from the book - Creation Of Happiness: The Energy War, a soul's perspective by Shiva Swati, chapter one

Try to restart with the understanding that all beings are, essentially, souls in human bodies so that you know how to create the reality you want and not create the reality which you do not want...

The reality of life, as viewed from the perspective of our soul is bound to be different than when viewed from the perspective of the body because our soul lives eternally. The soul views time in a continuum, unlike our rational mind that is governed by limitations of the body which dies overtime. Hence, it creates suffering to learn how to manifest a life that is in the future, better, wiser and more balanced.

The soul realizes that if one body dies, it can reincarnate in another body and continue on its journey of evolution. So, it allows itself to make mistakes and suffer the outcome.

A physical body is like a house , the soul chooses to inhabit for the period of a life-time. It is said that souls pass through different life-times as clouds pass through skies. Each life experience helps the soul evolve to a higher dimension of happiness if it can correct its mistakes and overcome suffering.

In human bodies of different kinds, colours, creeds and genres, the soul plans a variety of experiences which help evolution in unique ways.

 

One life, for the soul, is just like one step in its ladder of evolution. The difficulties which seem fatal when viewed from the vision of limited time and space of one life-time, appear as challenges to be overcome when viewed from the perspective of our eternal soul.

 

 

 

 

Understanding the working of this alternate reality, that is, reality,as viewed from the perspective of the soul, is particularly useful when everything in life appears to be going wrong, when one does not understand why life is taking the turns that it is, and when the WHY ME syndrome takes over - often, deluding reasoning.

 

When we view our life-time as part of a journey and not as a one-time experience, then we can view difficulties as road blocks, driving through which enhances our expertise. Overcoming difficulties helps in soul evolution.

 

Realizing happiness in life for the soul is like winning an Energy War between negative energies which block our happiness by making us focus on fear and competition and the opposing positive energies within us. As souls, we seek to express our inner pure self freely, so that we can experience joy and laughter while going through the walks of life. But, usually we lose the war when we live feeling stressed and die feeling diseased.

 

The soul continues on the same journey of challenges till it can radiate its light fully i.e. till it realizes happiness in the path chosen, even if the process takes several life-times.

 

So, if we make choices which make us feel pangs of emptiness often, where we keep questioning why we do what we do but keep feeling obliged to remain bound by a system of organization in order to meet our financial or traditional commitments; then, we need to be aware that if our body dies feeling compromised in any area of life, we would reincarnate with similar problematic circumstances. Death will not solve problems.

 

Our soul would not die with the body and the thought we die with would remain with us in the next body till we can transcend it. The energy which makes us feel negative never dies. Only the physical matter dies.

The energy remains and tries to free itself from feeling bound or compromised again, in whichever area of life it dies feeling negative.

 

Hence, as souls, we keep repeating experiences, which make us feel incomplete, underutilized and helpless till we can transcend the difficulties, as obstacles to be overcome, find what happiness means to our individual sensibilities and realize it.

 

Our soul seeks to win the Energy War it finds itself entangled in the ups and downs of life, by defeating the negative energies which prevent it from feeling happy or content from within.

 

The soul has to succeed in feeling happy, successful and joyous in order to evolve to a higher positive frequency; and usually the war is more within the self than external since how worthy or powerful, we feel internally affects how we make our choices and compromises externally.

Energy Circuits Repeat Feelings

 Your general established pattern of working, and your belief or disbelief in your 

own abilities, affects your ability to receive information and process it to manifest 

positive or negative health vibrations, at each moment of your life.

Energy flows in your body in automated circuits which run in tune with an internal 

song. In other words, your mind repeats the same feelings as a tune of words over 

and over again. Your emotional frequency is determined by this fixed mind-set 

and you keep feeling the same way, repetitively even when your external life 

changes its course; till you can redirect the automated energy flow in your body 

through changing your mind-set tuning frequency.

For example, deprivation is a common traditionally conditioned mind program. We 

are programmed to feel deprived by our parents or teachers or peers from 

childhood, by a general mass conditioned mind training which insists that focus 

remains on the missing aspects of life. e.g., my grandmother and mother felt that 

money was always short in our childhood. That same song kept playing in my ears 

throughout adult life and I kept feeling money is short whether I lived in India or 

abroad, was unmarried, married or divorced, went to school, college or worked, 

had children or taught children, watched television or attended workshops for self-

healing. The same background tune created all my life experiences such that 

money remained short even when earnings improved because expenses rose 

simultaneously. It took me years to understand that this tune was subconsciously 

governing my internal feelings and my choices of response.

Happiness is determined by feelings which are the body’s internal response to 

external situations. You feel sad if you are used to feeling sad in a given situation 

even if there is no need of feeling sad given the change in context over life. For 

example, if a child is slapped by an adult, he would feel sad as he is be-littled and 

too small to respond. But, if an adult is slapped by another adult, the adult does not 

need to feel suppressed by physical abuse. The automatic internal response of 

feeling suppressed by a slap or verbal abuse can be redirected to a more self-

empowering, rational response with awareness.

For example, with self-confidence, the adult can walk away in anger by assuming 

that the abuser is a devolved soul or ignore the abuser as a negative, irrelevant 

entity or slap back to revert back energy exchange or give advice on being peaceful 

or meditate in a positive vibration when alone, to transmute the negative energy 

received into positive. (Meditation neutralizes negative energy inside you such that 

your own positive frequency rises and you move away from people who make you 

sad by choosing detachment, automatically.)

But, due to an automated energy circuit in the emotional mind, you are not aware 

of the changing external environment within your subconscious mind. The 

subconscious mind only records energy changes and cannot distinguish between 

past, present and future. The child’s reality remains the same for the subconscious 

mind unless the adult reprograms himself/herself with the awareness that time has changed through hypnotherapy.

Energy Healing, Past Life Regression THerapy & Spirit REleasement Therapy

 

Energy healing through past life regression therapy and spirit release therapy help significantly in healing the soul and empowering us from within.

Past life therapy or spirit release may or may not have an immediate impact on healing but our soul vibrations become more positive.  Sometimes, miracle healing does occur in cases where karmic debt is over and the soul is ready to forgive itself and move on to being happy and healthy. People get cured of spondylitis, arthritis, asthma, diabetes, hormonal disorders, menstrual problems, infertility issues, relationship traumas etc. Energy healing also helps in divorce cases by reducing the harassment or alimony demanded.  Even if miracle healing or catharsis do not happen, the soul’s vibrations evolve as it understands its past mistakes and releases traumatic energy stored in the subconscious mind.

When our soul vibrations are positive, we feel happiness at a subconscious level. Hence, we need to choose to address the negative feelings from the core energy focus. It becomes imperative to address the root cause which created our negative traditional beliefs about how life should be. Unless the root cause is subconsciously, understood and healed, the problem may keep recurring at the external level of feelings, and creating stress.

Just as we go to a doctor to heal physical sickness and take precautions, we need to go to therapists or use meditation to heal our mind from a negative energy focus. The negative emotional focus is as much a sickness for the soul as a physical disease is for the body. The mental wound needs to be cleansed and healed.

Suppressing the hurt, fear or anger is like leaving a physical wound unattended. Our soul energy remains wounded. The memory of the negative incident keeps hurting us. Each time, we recall it, we release negative hormones in our body. We need to stop focusing on past negatives be it through self-therapy or going to a practitioner who can help us release the negative energy, from the source of its origin.

In the course of healing ourselves from indulging in negative thoughts, we need to develop flexibility in our own mind. We need to keep asking ourselves – ‘What can I do to feel positive here?’ We need to be aware of sudden solutions which flash across our mind. We also need to take action and exercise the solution given by our intuition even if the exercise appears meaningless in the beginning. Just a change in thinking to redefining happiness, is sometimes all that is needed to be happy and healthy. Taking action follows a change in thinking.

If we can do something about not feeling negative, we have to choose to act upon it; rather than procrastinating. We have to make efforts to get out of addictive over-eating habits, laziness, inertia, following rituals in fear of tradition or perpetuating fear of the unknown. Staying in a negative situation because of fear of failure in a new trial is like not wanting to exercise to let go of fat.

We also need to be aware that we may be focusing on staying unhappy because of fear of happiness. The fear of happiness leaving us, may be greater than happiness coming in because of past broken expectations, but we have to overcome our own negativity and reach out to take action.
