Are People Ready for Inner Strength?

January 1, 2024 General Insights No Comments

Not necessarily, but since Inner Strength belongs, of course, to each human being, it’s always present to help coping with itself. Needed is the proper support for vertical communication ― with oneself, basically.

Please read about Inner Strength.

Psychosomatic symptoms – or what underlies them – may be a sorry, dysfunctional way of trying to cope with underlying patterns.

These underlying patterns may be pretty energetic. Coming into direct contact with them may be challenging, for instance, when taking out the symptom as such without proper attention to its meaningfulness ― as in chronic ‘symptomatic therapy’ using pain-killers.

One feels that sometimes as a floating stress or even a (paradoxical, if you think about it) inner resistance, which can be viewed as the result of not being ready for Inner Strength.

Never break inner resistance.

It’s present with a purpose. That doesn’t mean it must stay present indefinitely. Since it hinders growth one way or another, it’s better to envision a positive direction in which the symptom or the resistance is increasingly less needed.

Dissolving it is a much better aim than breaking it. Even better is to let it dissolve itself at its manner and pace. Inviting it to do so is the aim of adequately conducted auto-suggestion.

Even so, one can open a lovely door and enter a challenging space.

This is a warning always to remain cautious when dealing with depth. Above all, Inner Strength is to be treated with proper respect. Whether any individual can handle it is not evidently straightforward. Unforeseen reactions are possible when striding through one’s inner mindscape.

This said, try not to be overly anxious.

Not striding through one’s inner mindscape at all can make things increasingly more challenging. Thus, being overly anxious frequently leads to more anxiety in a self-perpetuating pattern.

Look at it as a mental whirlpool phenomenon. The danger is near, yet staying out of it is relatively straightforward if you know how. It’s not so difficult, but you really have to know how, somehow. You might need guidance. Otherwise, being anxious can become somewhat like an energy that draws you further inside the whirlpool. Moreover, it can heighten the expectation of encountering anxiety again and again.

You see the challenge.

Possible dangers are of several kinds.

First, there may be a deep-down feeling guilty for not using one’s strength. Is one thereby oneself the cause of some adverse condition in body or mind?

Then, there is the possible but paradoxical feeling of ‘losing’ control ― that actually has never been there.

Also, the fear might pop up that one may die without having been truly alive — having forsaken Inner Strength for comfort’s sake.

But most of all

Most of all – though seldom consciously acknowledged – there is the danger of feeling powerful — really powerful and really free. It’s like meeting your soul for the very first time.

The burning bush is everywhere.

Thus, the main upside of Inner Strength is that it gives you the choice to become ever more Compassionate towards others and yourself.

Yes, people are ready for Inner Strength.

Moreover, they deserve it. For too long have they been deprived of it by each other, by groups, by impersonal mechanisms — for reasons mostly of anxiety/aggression and status/greed.

Of course, nobody’s guilty. Yet people’s Inner Strength has been downgraded this way for millennia. It’s time to get emancipated.

A turning point through A.I.?

With A.I. means, the downgrading can swing further than ever before.

On the other hand, the same brings an immense opportunity to validate Inner Strength toward a future of Compassionate super-A.I. and Compassionate humans.

An endeavor to enable this is, as you may know, the Lisa project.
