a style of God-as-boss who is authoritarian and a benevolent tyrant. Rejection of this model does not mean that you are an atheist, but rather a believer in the true meaning of divinity.
You are not required to feel inferior, to view yourself as a sinner and to prostrate yourself before idols and dogma in order to believe in God. Study St. Paul in the New Testament where he says, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God.” This is the kind of trust you must adopt in order to know your divine self.
• Trusting does not mean you never experience life’s valleys. There will be peaks and valleys as long as you live on this physical plane. There is no happiness without the opposite experience of unhappiness. Opposites are the way it is in the physical plane. Expect that this is also your reality.
Do not abandon trust when your ego thinks things should be different than they are. It is better to embrace trust when darkness is present, knowing that light will follow. Begin to look for the lesson in the darkness rather than cursing it. Trust allows you simply to observe the dark and unhappy times rather than identifying totally with those aspects of life. From this perspective you are not at the mercy of your ego energy, insisting that everything must be perfect, and that when things are not, you have reasons to give up your trust in the divine.
The valleys are merely the way of the physical plane, but they are not who you are. You are part of the unseen wisdom that created this entire physical plane and you can trust in it uncategorically.
• There is timeless wisdom in this old idea of trust. Any person can sense that problems are within, but the spiritually trusting person realizes that the solution is also within.
When you trust in yourself, you are not looking for solutions to your life problems in someone or something outside yourself. Instead, you remain in a state of trusting. Then, in a trustworthy manner, you can proceed to attract the energy to you that provides the solution.
• Take your most serious problems and turn them over to God. Say something like the following: “I have not been able to resolve these issues in my life and I have used every technique I know. I would like to show my trust in the divine force by simply turning them over to your divine hands. As I do this I know that the divine force that is you, God, is also me, and I trust that this action will lead to a resolution of these problems.”
I can assure you that this method puts you into direct contact with a higher power than can ever be found in a bottle, a bank statement, a contrary partner, an illness or anything on the earth plane that you believe is external or separate from you. I left all of the addictions of my life behind me with the simple words “I’ve tried everything else, now I am trusting God.”
It was not as though something outside myself was now doing it for me. I simply trusted that force, and it began showing up in my daily abstinence program. I trusted in the eternal wisdom and I also trusted in myself to receive that wisdom and apply it. This same process has been the source of all of the manifesting that has occurred and continues to transpire in my daily life.
• The presence of complete trust is evident in your life when what you think, feel and do are all balanced and in harmony. The presence of a distinction between your thoughts and your emotional state as well as your behavior tends to move you away from the trusting attitude I am encouraging you to adopt as you practice this second principle of manifestation.
Examine your thoughts carefully. See if those thoughts are totally congruent with your actions. To say “I believe in a healthy body” and to practice eating in unhealthy ways dissolves trust in yourself. Congruent thought, emotions and behavior are strong indicators of your self-trust. And keep in mind that when you trust in yourself, you are trusting in God at the same time.
When you are incongruent with your thoughts, you are showing a lack of trust in the divinity that is your essence. Be honest about any incongruency. Identify it and trust in your ability to transcend it, and the energy that you need for this transformation will be attracted to you. But if you hang onto the incongruency, thinking one thing but behaving in disingenuous ways, you will sabotage your ability to trust in yourself and in the infinite wisdom as well.
As you practice surrendering, acknowledge your fundamental richness rather than bemoaning the imagined poverty of your being. When you practice spiritual trust you are surrendering your ego, and all of its hallucinatory beliefs, to a higher power. You are just letting go and knowing that divine guidance is always with you.
• Begin a meditation practice of contemplating the supreme principle that is beyond the pettiness of this world. Yes, it is in this world, but it is not blemished by this world. The mind needs and craves serenity. Meditation is not merely making the mind think that it is meditating. Meditation is, literally, the embodiment of truth and trust. It is in the purification of the mind that liberation reveals itself.
The practice of meditation is a powerful tool in my life. As a writer, I sometimes write for hours and everything flows magically. Then a time comes when there are no more words. I want to write and nothing happens. No matter how hard I want to write, there is no writing taking place.
At these moments I have learned to leave the typewriter and to sit quietly, closing my eyes and surrendering. I don’t know what I surrender to, but I simply let go and attempt to purify my mind. Then, after some time of simply surrendering meditatively, I seem to tap into something that is a source of inspiration, and I write page after page with no idea where it is coming from. This process of closing my eyes and becoming serene gives me the ability to tap into that source of inspiration. And the word “inspiration” comes from “in spirit.”
This is trust. This is grace. It is knowing that I can literally confront myself in a spirit of serenity and that what I seek will be attracted to me. This is the energy of manifesting, and it comes most frequently when the mind is quiet. It is the quiet mind that comes in contact with the truth.
When we meditate, we come into contact with the part of us that is truth. The surrendering process helps us to use this truth in our daily pursuits. It is the same with trust. Surrender to it through your quiet moments of serenity and you will know the truth of this principle.
