The Desteni of Living – My Utmost Potential: DAY 1

The Desteni of Living – My Utmost Potential: DAY 1

The Principle of Realising and Living my Utmost Potential

In this post, I am discussing what ‘Realising and Living my Utmost Potential’ practically means – through showing how I have (and still do) live and realise this Principle.

The wording of this Principle is very specific, for you first have to REALISE your utmost potential before you are able to LIVE it. Then, we also have to look what ‘your Utmost Potential’ practically entails – with ‘practically’ I mean: how exactly do you visibly live and apply your utmost potential in everyday life to contribute your life experience as well as that of others.

We’re going to start with defining ‘Utmost Potential’.

I have found within my personal process / life experience – that I so often underestimated myself to the extent where I couldn’t fathom me having any ‘potential’, where I in a time within my life believed that “this is all I will ever be” / “I will never reach / attain anything ‘more’” – you know, that experience within yourself of just “settling for less”.

I have mostly found what hampered my seeing / realising any potential within myself – primarily came from approaching challenges in my life and immediately reacting to them in a way of “I can’t do this” / “I won’t be able to this” / “I’m going to disappoint everyone”. So, without even trying – I sell myself short, leading to giving up and so keeping myself in my self-proclaimed limitation / ‘settling for less’ inner and out experience. This is where and how in such moments – I never allowed myself to see what I am capable of, what potential I do have and what not.

STEP 1: Recognizing you have Potential

The process of realising and living your utmost potential – starts with the first step of RECOGNIZING you have potential! This is why, for some, when looking at the words ‘utmost potential’ – you kind of ‘hit a blank’ within yourself: it’s because you haven’t yet established within yourself the fact that you do have potential in the first place.

By this I mean the following: I have met a person in my life that gave me a lot of responsibility. No one before this had ever given me responsibility / considered giving me responsibility because of how I behaved in my life: I was generally viewed as undependable and irresponsible. Obviously, the responsibility of this was solely on me – yet, I used to take it very personally and often blamed others; refusing to see the fact that it was in my actions that I was showing myself and others what, who and how I was accepting and allowing myself to be. It took one person to – instead of ONLY looking at my actions, still recognize the fact that I do have potential: it was just that I myself didn’t yet realise it / see it. Because this individual had in their life walked a similar path – initially seeing no potential in themselves, to realising that even when they were in the toughest of times within themselves / their lives where all seemed lost: they still had potential – this allowed this individual to show others how self-potential still exists, it’s always here, you only need to recognize it by being shown and then foster it within yourself.

This is the important point within it all: we don’t often realise the extent to which we can become self absorbed in our Mind, such as for example what I had found with becoming the belief that I wouldn’t amount to anything in my life, which caused me to not even recognize the fact that I do still have potential – even when all seemed lost within myself / my life. This is why and how, with the support and assistance of those who were able to / already have stepped out of such absorption / beliefs in the Mind – you can assist and support yourself to realise the potential for potential to be fostered within you and so lived.

As I have been shown the potential of my potential – and from the showing, lived and applied myself to change myself, I will through walking my process in this blog, show you the potential of your potential. But, as with all things – I can only SHOW you the way: you have to walk it.

We’ll continue more in posts to come

The Desteni of Living - My Declaration of Principle: DAY 0

The Desteni of Living - My Declaration of Principle: DAY 0

Here are my living principles that I am in the process of living – where I commit myself to assist and support myself to endeavour becoming, being and living these principles until my within and without (who I am within and how I live without) is equal and one - the same - and where I commit myself to live my utmost potential, even beyond this life into the next.

I will walk each Principle in individual posts to come, explaining each one in detail together with practical examples of how living each Principle changed me in assisting and supporting my life and living experience in this world.

1.       Realising and living my utmost potential

2.       Living by the principle of what is best for all – guiding me in thought, word and deed to always in all ways direct problems to the best possible outcome for all

3.       Living by the principle of self honesty – to ensure I am pure in thought, word and deed: that my within and without is equal and one. Who I am within is who I am without and vice-versa

4.       Self Purification through Writing, Self Forgiveness and Self Application – the action of realising I am responsible for my own thoughts, words and deeds, to forgive myself for transgressions and change myself to ensure I take responsibility for who, what and how I am and through this know that I can trust myself to always be honest with me and so others

5.       Living the principle of Self Responsibility – realising only I am responsible for what I accept and allow inside of me, my relationships and my outside world and so with this responsibility: only I have the power and ability to change that which I see is compromising who I am, what I live and how this affects others

6.       Realising that who I am in thought, word and deed affects not only myself – but others as well and so with Self Responsibility in thought, word and deed – I take responsibility for myself and so my relationships to be Self Aware in every moment  and live in such a way that is best for me and so others as well

7.       Living the Principle of Self Awareness – to be aware, to see, to recognize my own thoughts and Mind, to be self honest to the extent where I can take responsibility for when I see my thoughts / Mind is not what is best for me / others and commit to immediately take responsibility and change for myself and so for others

8.       With taking responsibility for myself, becoming aware of myself – take responsibility and become aware of others in my life, to assist and support them as I am assisting and supporting myself – to give as you would like to receive and do the extra bit every day to see where I can contribute to other’s lives and so my own

9.       Living the principle of self trust – as I commit myself to remain constant in my living of self honesty, self responsibility and self awareness, I stand as an unbending trust that I always in all ways know who I am no matter what I face and that in this I know, as proven in the constancy of my living that I will always honour and stand by what is best for all and so best for me

10.    Making Love Visible – through me not accepting/allowing anything less than my utmost potential, I support those in my life to reach their utmost potential, to love them as I have shown love to myself by gifting to me my utmost potential, the best life/living experience and show others as I have shown myself what it means to LIVE

11.    No one can save you, save yourself – the realisation that the tools and principles of Desteni is the guide, but I must walk the path myself. We are here to assist and support each other in this process from Consciousness to Awareness/LIFE and what it means to live – but the process itself, where you are alone with yourself in your own Mind: is walked alone

12.    Not waiting for anything or anyone to take responsibility for me and this world – but that I realise I have created who and how I am in this moment, therefore I have the responsibility to change who and how I am and so the realisation that we as a collective created how and what this world is today and so it is the responsibility of the collective to change how and what this world is today

13.    Honouring the life in each person, animal – everything from the great to the small of earth, that we expand our awareness and responsibility to creating the best possible life for everyone and everything and so ourselves

14.    Relationships as Agreements: individuals coming together using agreements as a platform to one-on-one expand, grow and develop as individuals in life and living to support/assist each other unconditionally to reach their utmost potential where the agreement is a coming together of individuals understanding what it means to stand as equals and to stand as one

15.    Sex as Self Expression – where sex is an united expression between individuals in honour, respect, consideration and regard of each other as equals, two physical bodies uniting in equality and oneness – a merging of two equals as one physically.

16.    Realising that by the virtue of me being in this world – my responsibility does not only extend to my own Mind / my own Life, but to the minds and lives of everything and everyone of this earth and so my commitment is to extend this awareness to all of humanity to work together and live together to make this world heaven on earth for ourselves and the generations to come

17.    I must in my thoughts, words and deeds – but most importantly in my living actions, become a living example for others in my world that is noticeable and visible when it comes to the potential of a person to change themselves and so change their world. So that more people can realise how we can change this world, by standing united in our self change within the principle of what is best for all to bring heaven to earth

18.    I am the change I want to see in me and my world – to bring heaven to earth is to bring into being, into living the LIVING PROOF of a PRACTICAL HEAVEN that can be seen and heard in our actions and words. We are the Living Heaven that must come into creation in this living world.

19.    Through purifying my thoughts, words and deeds – my inner becomes my outer, so I bring into creation me as heaven into earth, realising it is not enough to ‘see the change / be the change’ – for change to become REAL it must be a constant, consistent living of me through the words I speak and the actions I live visible and noticeable to all in every moment of breath

20.    Realising that my physical body is my temple – my physical body is the living flesh through which and in which I will bring into being and create / manifest heaven on earth as me in my thoughts, words and deeds and so I honour, respect and regard – nurture and support my physical body as I would nurture and support me as equals: my body is me

21.    We are the change in ourselves and this world we have been waiting for: and so I commit to dedicate myself and my life for each one as all to realise this, as nothing will change if we don’t change in all that we are, within and without

22.    The realisation that for me to be able to change myself in thought, word and deed to the most effective living being that I can be and become – I first have to ‘know thyself’ and so commit myself to investigate, introspect and understand how I became who I am today, to prepare the road before me into self creation of a responsible, aware, self honest and trustworthy person for myself and so for all

23.    The realisation that for me to be able to contribute to change in this world – I have to get to ‘know thyself’ as this world and so commit myself to research, investigate and introspect the inner and outer workings of this world and align the systems of today to present and give the best possible life for all on Earth

The Rise of Emotion and the Fall of Self

The Rise of Emotion and the Fall of Self

Quantum Time and Physical Space-Time Equilibrium (continued)

Who I am as Patience (continued)

I will continue more in the next post explaining / sharing the process of how emotional reactions / response-patterns change / transform to self-expression; and how this process of walking from the Quantum Time dimensions of Consciousness into and as the equilibrium of Space and Time in the Physical – assist and support with understanding what it means to Live Patience.

I have found that there is a hint of impatience existent – every time I accept and allow myself to go into an emotional reaction. Where I do not take a moment to breathe and slowly look at a moment / conversation with another, but IMMEDIATELY in a quantum moment activate any and every kind of thought / emotional reaction within me. Thus, we’re going to have a look at where and how within your day-to-day life – you can start practising the living of Patience in relation to yourself, a moment and another.

For this post, I would suggest a practical application process for yourself to observe how Impatience is actually existent in every and any moment you go into an emotional reaction (I’ll eventually get to the positive feeling, but most will be able to prominently relate to emotional reactions / energy experiences). Observe yourself in moments where you become emotional – whether anxiety, irritation, resistance, frustration, anger etc. What you’ll notice happens is that your solar plexus and chest area becomes tight, your upper-body becomes tense as this overwhelming energy rises up within you. It’s interesting how with emotional energy – because it is so intense / overwhelming, it creates this illusion of “rising” on an unconscious-level – which also contributes to why we sometimes use emotion in situations / conversations, it presents the illusion of self “rising to the occasion” / “having power to speak up / speak your mind”. Thus, this is another dimension in relation to emotion that I would suggest introspecting: the illusion that emotion presents to you in the mind and body as to having more ‘power’ / ‘strength’ to be able to take on the situation / person, like the emotional energy “backs you up” in a way; showing that you cannot stand alone, by yourself and your own words – but need emotional energy to ‘stand with you’. Additionally within this to see, realise and understand that it’s not about ‘speaking your MIND’ – speaking your mind, especially when in emotional reaction – is speaking reactions, it is then not you, your awareness speaking. (I will continue expanding on the difference between speaking your mind and speaking as self in posts to come)

So, with physically experiencing the emotion rising up within you and you rising with it further / deeper into the Mind – you will notice that you in that moment REALLY focus ONLY on how you feel, what you are thinking; so a complete separation manifests between you, the moment / situation in reality and then the other person. This then leads one to start ‘speaking your Mind’ and only perpetuates conflict / friction in your world / reality in relation to a situation / another person.

Therefore, for this post – what I would like you to observe for yourself are these two things:

ONE: how the physical body responds to the emotion coming up as it rises within you and TWO: how you internally only focus on your own thoughts and emotions in that moment, as though the thoughts and emotions are a lot more emphasized / standing out and clear  - really ‘highlighted’, so much so that you cannot take your attention off of it and it really captivates you and so captures you into/as the Mind, instead of being here with breath, yourself, the body and the moment in reality to be able to understand the situation and come up with a practical solution.

Why is it important to be able to observe this / become of aware of how we respond to thoughts and emotions and what is its relationship to Impatience? See: because Consciousness exist in ‘quantum time’ – it with emotion, for example, moves you SO FAST into the Mind and then brings up a lot of thoughts VERY fast, so you will also become aware of how fast and how many thoughts will come up in your Mind in the moment of an emotional reaction. This is to ensure you remain distracted from you, breath and the physical body – to not see the reality of the situation / moment / yourself and the other person – but keep on paying attention to your own thoughts and emotions. So, what happens within this – is: you come to believe in your own thoughts and reactions about a situation / person, instead of remaining calm and stable, moving in space-time breathing with the physical body and directly looking at the situation / person with awareness / commonsense and an outcome for a solution. It is really, really, really fascinating how one’s perspective of a situation / other person changes – with taking responsibility and forgiving your own thoughts and emotions, calming down and being stable and then instead looking at the situation, yourself and the other person with stability and clarity.

This is where Impatience plays a major role – we have not yet lived / applied the PATIENCE with OURSELVES, to not move so FAST and IMMEDIATE into the quantum time dimensions of emotional energy / consciousness, to just take a moment for ourselves, sort out our own thoughts / reactions and then look at the moment with such clarity and perspective.

One of the main things to understand when it comes to emotional reactions and then the thoughts / backchats that follows is that: whatever comes up in your mind – does not define the situation, nor the other person, but in fact reflects things to you that you have not directed / sorted out inside yourself. Therefore, before directing situations / people within it – take responsibility for yourself / your own mind, clear yourself and drop the veil of consciousness. Then, take a moment – that moment where you breathe and you’re sure you are clear and then take responsibility for the moment / the other person by LOOKING at how you are going to direct the situation / person into and as a practical solution.

In the next post, we’re going to have a look at how all the points come together, from Impatience to LIVING Patience with self, to how the quantum time dimensions of the mind and the space-time continuum of the physical come-together to assist and support in this process of looking at things / seeing direct; instead of shifting into impatience and so the quantum time of the Mind/Consciousness that manifest the necessary separation from yourself and physical reality to perpetuate consequence / compromise instead of bringing your world to solutions and direction.
