Mental Wellbeing - What is the point of life?
Mental Wellbeing - What is the point of life?
A big question
Many of us question what is the point of life at various points in our existence, especially when our own life is threatened or a loved one dies. This intrinsic question, if unanswered, has the power to unseat our mental wellbeing. In this blog, I will give you the answer I believe to be true to ground your mental and spiritual wellbeing.
Death is au revoir
I’ve always believed in reincarnation, finding it fascinating and plausible. However, it wasn’t until my own grief journey and a friend gave me Journey of Souls by Michael Newton, to read that I found an explanation I could go with.
His book is a collection of case studies from past lives regressions, so anecdotal evidence of reincarnation in practice. That really helped to comfort me by reminding me that we're all on our own paths and will be reunited with loved ones once we're finished.
Death is really 'au revoir' and not goodbye, we only lose each other for a bit and certainly not forever!
Past life connection
As is always the case, it was a happy coincidence for the author to uncover this truth. He inadvertently stumbled upon his clients’ past lives when using hypnotherapy to treat their trauma in this life and became fascinated with the connection betwixt the two.
Our life's purpose
In a nutshell, we all come from the 'source', which is conscious energy. We're at varying levels of awareness around this truth, basic awareness only kicks in after five lives have been lived. Our earthly purpose is to learn lessons we pre-agreed before birth, in order to progress our overall knowledge and understanding so we can evolve into ultimately becoming the source. This takes many many life times but you can tell whose more evolved by the vibes they give off, compassionate, peaceful, powerful, loving…it’s their aura.
Aura colours
Aura's, comes in only a few colours, ranging from new soul white or grey, then white mixed with a little of any of the primary colours to intermediate yellow, which darkens and converts to light blue, which darkens and turns into purple.
By the time, which can take thousands of life times and years, we've achieved a blue aura we stop reincarnating and become metaphysical creators of the natural world and form the higher consciousness, aka source or the divine.
New species
Ever wondered why we’re constantly uncovering new species of life? Well now you know why…
What is an aura
Auras are the force fields of energy, certain beings can see emanating from us, the frequency we vibrate at...The form of light we radiate being proportional to the power of our knowledge and perception...We're just like stars!
The rich are young souls
Interestingly, the youngest souls are the ones which have accumulated the most material wealth and power. That feels better doesn’it?! But isn’t it ironic that we judge success in Today's world upon material gain…A further sign of our misaligned direction.
How can this be?
Well, it's impossible to get super rich or powerful without fucking over a lot of people on the way up. And really rich people then find themselves stuck in a vicious circle of trying to protect and maintain their wealth to the cost of everything and everybody else...working 24/7, being ridiculously tight fisted, ripping others off and believing they're superior and more entitled than everyone else.
Humble = old soul
The humblest of people tend to be the most spiritually advanced, feeling compassion towards other people and the planet, driven to more meaningful ways of contributing to the whole not caught up in self-serving. They understand that we are all connected and not really the individuals we like to think we are.
We're are one
I call those who recognise this connection between us all and dedicate their lives to contributing to the preservation and enrichment of life for the greater good, witches. Witches are motivated by the happiness gained from making a positive difference beyond all else.
You don't need possessions to be wealthy
So next time your made to feel envy by the constant barrage of media messages telling you you need all this plastic crap to feel worthy, remind yourself that you really don't need to succumb to these subliminal messages sent by some fear-filled rich person trying to maintain their wealth.
A good heart is all you need
In the words of Feragal Sharkey, a good heart is all you need. Having a new set of mugs will not bring you anywhere near the same level of joy as making a cup of tea for someone else will do. Or taking a moment to immerse yourself in the natural world in all its glory and wonder. And, if that promotion at work comes at the price of someone else's head, don't do it, a clear conscious is worth more than all the gold in the World.
Forest bathing
In Japan they have Forest Bathing, Shinrin Yoku, complete with scientific proof for the numerous healing benefits to be had from spending time with trees. I don’t need scientific proof for the amazing health benefits I receive from spending time in the woods, I feel it on every level.
Trauma gives deep growth
Another lovely message I got from this book was that apart from choosing our lessons, parents, siblings and friends, we pre-agree our departure and the style of it. The point of it to further deepen the learning of those left behind.
Revolution in thinking
Thus, meaning that no matter how horrendous or premature someone's death is, they knew about it and were complicit in it. That's quite something isn't it, a revolution in thinking. And apparently, if you miscarry, I’ve had 3 failed pregnancies, it's often the same soul/s that comes through. It's all about deepening our understanding and learning. And I really believe that.
The price of life on earth
The good news is that Earth is the harshest place for life, the spirit world is far more delightful and caring. We're attracted to the challenge of a life on earth because of the physical beauty of it, it maybe harsh and sometimes brutal but it is also incomparably beautiful.
The end leads to a more informed beginning
When each of our lives on this planet ends, we return to the spirit world to be healed, processing our learning and mistakes, in order to be restored to life again with the purpose to evolve.
Final word
I hope the truth in my words has resonated deeply within your soul and brought you mental wellbeing and the answer to the point of life. We don’t have to share the same faith, most faiths share common truths, they’re just different pathways to the same destination. I recommend Michael Newton’s book but there are many others with the same title, why? Because we’re all one and share the same knowledge.
