Experiencing Yourself as Source Love

Experiencing Yourself as Source Love

By Vydia Frazier

Posted on July 29, 2023





If you’ve been on a spiritual path for any length of time, it’s really old hat to come across the idea that love is the answer to all problems … or, we should feel love, not fear … or, enough love will heal all wounds.

When you hear this kind of statement, you probably just kind of nod, acknowledging yeah, you know this – it’s a great thing to remember.

And then, the idea kind of vaporizes, and you’re back to trying to find a new way to feel better about yourself or more positive about life. Or, you’re busy attempting to get the latest news about what’s happening in the world – anything to distract you from the niggling dissatisfaction you have in your mind and gut about your life.

Why is this?

What We Sometimes Miss

Perhaps, although these kinds of teachings about love can really be helpful at times, and they do point the way to greater awakening to who we are as spiritual Beings, they somehow miss the mark.

They only point to understanding that we need to change our emotions toward people and life, and do things that are more loving. In simply focusing on love in this way, we may be missing a much deeper truth about Love – and about the reality of who we are. We may be missing that who we actually ARE is Love, Itself.

And sure, this idea floats around out there also. It’s nothing new. But have you ever actually focused on what it’s pointing to – and experienced the reality of it? Have you ever let go of all thoughts about love, all you think you know about it – and simply felt into the reality of it within yourself? And discovered that, yes, you have a body, you have thoughts and emotions, and even a sense of who you are as a spiritual Being – but at the very core of your beingness, you simply are Love?

Trying to Fill the Empty Void Inside

Again, this idea is probably familiar to you – and you may have experienced it from time to time. And yet, somehow the experiencing of this reality likely comes and goes.

Perhaps, to your surprise, even after you’ve had a profound experience of yourself as Love, you find you’re back into feeling a subtle sense of emptiness inside, like something is missing. And, maybe at times, as if there is an unfillable void within you, an unfathomable yearning for love. You are again somehow looking outside yourself for someone or something to fill it.

If you’re honest, even if you have a romantic partner or spouse in your life who is truly loving toward you, someone who really gets you and gives you many reasons to assure you they love you – you realize in your private moments that this feeling of a void doesn’t really go away.

Or maybe you have friends or family who truly love you. You can feel their love and be very grateful for it; and yet it too doesn’t always seem to fully land inside you. It somehow doesn’t fill that empty, painful void. Perhaps, when you’ve just experienced something really loving they’ve done or said to you, for a while, you feel fully loved. But, somehow it never really lasts. You discover there’s still something missing inside.

The Emotion of Love is Different from Source Love

And this, of course, is because you’re attempting to fill that void with something from outside of yourself.

And, you’re also trying to fill it with the emotion of love – when what you’re really craving is something much more profound and powerful: the kind of love that is the very essence of Source. Both of these energies are known as “love”, but they are actually very different.

When you can really understand this – and learn to fully experience yourself as the loving Essence of Source, itself – you realize you don’t need to feel loved by anyone. You can certainly appreciate and treasure the love you might receive from others, but there’s no longer a sense of need of this for you to feel lovable, valuable, important, and special. The void within you is filled with your own knowing of yourself as Source – a force of Loving Presence that completely fills you.

In fact, you can realize that this void is the true source of your dissatisfaction with your life, as a whole — that you mistakenly believe the lack of certain things or circumstances is the problem. But, once you really feel a strong sense of oneness with Source Love, with All That Is, you find you are suddenly free of so many problems and issues that plague you. You feel whole, loving and at peace.

Experiencing Source Love

You might be able to experience this Loving Presence within you surprisingly easily. Just take a few moments to tune in to yourself, and focus on feeling into the very core of who you are.

Shift your awareness past your thoughts, past your emotions and even your body sensations, and put your attention on your Heart center in the middle of your chest. Feel what’s there, quietly present and alive.

At first, it might be just a flash of a knowing, a brief sense of joy, a bright light – or an electricity that begins flowing through your body. There’s a feeling of power with it, a wholeness … a living, dynamic energy of Love that can begin to flood your entire being. And then there might appear a profound understanding, a knowing that this Living Source Love is who you are.

If you can experience this, even for a few moments, it can have a profound effect on you. You might shift into an altered state, as a powerful current of warmth begins flowing through you. As you breathe in and out, you may feel a smile forming on your lips. You fall into a sea of bliss. It’s an experience you won’t want to forget.

And yet, you probably will. Your mind, your emotions and distracting external events grab your awareness once again, and you’re back into experiencing that you’re simply a limited human form with thoughts and emotions and problems to solve.

Our Weakened Connection to Source

This is not unusual. As profound as this knowing of yourself as Source Love might be to experience, it’s somehow easy to forget.

What it points to is a condition humanity has suffered from for eons of time – a type of weakening of our connection to Source, of our knowing that who we actually are is a spark of the very Essence of Love we have issued forth from.

We somehow have to keep trying to be in touch with this truth; we have to keep meditating, praying, and doing other spiritual practices to keep remembering and experiencing that we are Source.

There are many stories as to why this state of being humanity suffers from exists. Some teachings indicate that it’s essentially humanity’s fault, an inherent weakness that needs to be corrected and remedied. Others say it’s a condition that was created by certain unfriendly forces to keep humanity weak – but that this control is now crumbling.

Yet it doesn’t matter what you believe. In the end, until a full transition into the Fifth Dimension occurs, you still have to somehow continue doing whatever you can to keep experiencing your knowing that you are Source, you are that infinite presence of Love.

Keeping Focused on Your Connection to Source

Fortunately, at some point, you will no longer have to do this. A constant knowing will be with you; the empty void will be gone.

You will no longer be seeking a sense of being loved from other people. You will know yourself to BE Love – and you will experience yourself as whole and complete.

But meanwhile, if you can just take the time each day to focus on your Heart, be still, and experience the truth of who you are — pure Source Love — this knowing will take hold more and more.

You’ll feel lighter, more at peace, and more optimistic about your life.

With the 5D energies now flooding into the Earth, you’ll find that it truly is getting easier and easier to achieve this.

The Path of Receiving Love

The Path of Receiving Love

Hakann trough A. S.

Posted on March 12, 2023

 

 

My dearest brothers and sisters,
 
This is Hakann speaking. I greet you in peace and love.
 
I have previously shared two spiritual paths that I think would benefit everyone, namely: breathe deeply and slowly at least three times a day. If necessary, put up a note to remind yourself to breathe deeply and slowly. And also: observe your thoughts and emotions as they come up, without trying to change or judge or suppress them. Both of these things don’t need to take more than a minute a day, although of course you can make more time for them than that.
 
Last week I shared another spiritual path that I think will be great for some people, but not necessarily for everyone. That was the path of Kriya Yoga.
 
Today I will share another spiritual path that I think will be great for some people, but not everyone needs it and not everyone will be in a position to walk it.
 
This path is: find some relatively emotionally safe person who knows you pretty well. Every day mutually share with each other how your day was and how you felt during the day. And very regularly, either every day or just very regularly, share with each other what you think that other person did great or what you admire about them or what you think their positive qualities are. If you can, try to be specific, because that way the compliments and affection “lands” better. So for example, “you did this thing very well today, good job, I’m proud of you” or “you’re really kind, I love that about you” is preferable to just an overall “you did great today” or “I love you.”
 
Of course, only share things that you authentically feel. If you cannot think of anything nice to say about the other person, then well, probably think a bit harder of what qualities they do have. They likely have a bunch of good qualities, otherwise why are you interacting with them?
 
To some of you, this will just sound like a healthy romantic relationship. And sure, it can be (or you can do this with a platonic friend). But a lot of times, after the initial relationship phase people stop regularly expressing appreciation towards each other and giving each other compliments on a regular basis. Some of you would benefit from doing that a bit more, because while rationally you may know the other appreciates you, emotionally many of you can still benefit from the affection.
 
The reason why I am suggesting this is that most Earth humans haven’t received enough love as children. In many cases, this is the root cause of emotional pain in people.
 
People’s lack of received love as a child can also lead to people blindly believing that the government is a benevolent parental entity that takes care of them, despite all evidence to the contrary, simply because people are so very desperate for a benevolent parental entity that takes care of them.
 
This is also why we think it is very cruel and unfortunate that lots of parents train their children as they train dogs: show them love if they behave in ways the parent likes, be critical or somewhat harsh if they behave in ways the parent dislikes. Children deserve unconditional love and support, and you can make children aware that certain actions have undesirable consequences without withdrawing your love from them.
 
The primary solution to the problem of people not having received enough love as children is, them getting more openly expressed love from other people today. Sure, self-love also helps and is also important, but humans are a social species — getting love from other people is a fundamental need that people have. Self-love is important but it can’t fully replace that.
 
You’re not weak or flawed for needing love and affection from others. More people than not would benefit from regularly receiving love or affection. It’s not that if you want to regularly hear that someone cares about you, that there’s something wrong with you.
 
Perhaps this path of receiving love can help you and the other person receive the love that you may not have sufficiently had. In turn, that can be very healing and it can enable you to become your best self.
 
As you may guess, the daily compliments are primarily about both of you feeling seen and loved and nourished, and not primarily about cognitively learning something about yourself. So it’s no problem if one thing gets said multiple times.
 
If you think this is a bit artificial to do: humans (including children) are supposed to be telepathic and very empathic and thus they are supposed to be able to literally feel the love from the people around them, every single day. On a typical day (or cycle), I literally feel love from my wife, from my children, from my friends and I feel respect and affection from the people I work with and direct. And they also feel the same from me. So we Pleiadians may not verbally tell each other regularly that we love each other unconditionally and appreciate each other, but we do telepathically feel that during our entire lives, even back when we were still in our mother’s womb. And yes, this contributes very much to our emotional well-being.
 
I understand that right now telepathy is blocked in most Earth humans, so a replacement for now is just verbally telling each other what you appreciate about them and what they did well and what their good qualities are. If you do have access to telepathy or strong empathy, you can also just sit down and look at each other and literally feel each other’s love or appreciation, without words. That can also be a healing practice.
 
That said, while I think this can be a great and very healing practice for many of you, I understand that unfortunately not everyone has a relatively emotionally safe person to do this with. And also, some Earth humans did receive the love they need and don’t particularly need this practice. That said, don’t be too quick to say that you don’t need this, because some people who think they don’t need this in fact could benefit from it.
 
If you want to find a pen pal, either to do this practice with or just in general, you can leave an email address in the comment section and invite people to write to you. I suggest making a new email address for this purpose.
 
I hope this was helpful. I know the situation on Earth is very harsh and tough for many of you. You have my utmost respect for being able to keep going and also keeping a good heart in all the darkness.
 
Your star brother,
 
Hakann
