Integrating Spirituality & Darkness

Having the spiritual world completely separate from our physical existence makes no sense at all. We have the physical, the emotional and the mental components, and then it’s like we put the spiritual way up there and it makes absolutely no sense! Spirituality should be an enhancement of the physical world, not a detractor. We are physical beings but we are also spiritual beings, we have a spiritual component to us and that spiritual component can actually enhance and empower our life here. Our psychic senses give us knowledge and insight into the world around us, it allows us to perceive threats, it allows us to pick up on dangers, it also allows us to receive information and get help in areas that we need it. Our ability to be in tune with our spiritual side is a huge asset because our spiritual body sees the world in layers that we can’t even imagine and it can help guide us and direct us through those layers and help us avoid having tragedy and downfall, it can guide us through the safest path to getting what we want, so it’s very empowering…

When you actually flow with your spiritual side, your spiritual side will be an enhancement of your physical side, it will never take away from your life here, it will never be a distraction and it will never stop you from actually living. You will be able to experience the fruits and the bounty of this world and you will be able to enjoy your time here. Spirituality is a part of this world – we’ve just been absolutely cut off from it, we’re basically conditioned from the time that we were a child to separate the spirit, to see the spirit as fantasy out there… Truly happy people have integrated their spiritual side into them, it’s a part of them and they move through life as a physical and a spiritual being. That is one of the foundational aspects of a successful life, is being able to walk fully integrated in spirit and in body, utilizing both of them to attain and manifest what you want and desire. We shouldn’t be living in horror and misery and poverty, we should be utilizing our gifts and embracing everything that we are, including our spiritual self, because, quite often, the spiritual side of us is our best side, it’s our creative side, it’s our genius – the side that society rejects and doesn’t want to acknowledge, that gets locked away and then we don’t bring it out, we go through life living a mundane existence, never realizing our potential and never claiming the power that’s inside of us!!!

Your spiritual side is powerful, your psychic gifts and your ability to shift and change the energies around you allows you to manifest and it allows you to create the life that you desire. If you want to walk a fulfilled life, you need to integrate your spiritual side, you can’t be cut off from that!! So many people are cut off from who they are!! When you’re cut off from your spiritual side, you’re cut off from your truth, you’re cut off from that unique spark that makes you who you are – this is why we see so many people walking through the world almost as if they’re just going through the motions of life, they’re not living, they’re just existing, they’re on autopilot…

Spirituality grounds you, it brings you back to the present and it forces you to take a look at your life: is this really what you want? Is this really where you’re going? When you are fully integrated, when you are a conduit of spiritual energies, you are inspired, creativity flows through you, your path opens up to you, the world opens up to you, opportunity flows to you, you find your path, you find your purpose, you find your calling that comes from connecting with the spiritual side!

It’s sad, because, in a lot of western cultures, we’ve actually separated the two and we’ve shunned spirituality in a way, we’ve been told it’s irrelevant, it’s not important, it’s fantasy, it’s fake, all that stuff you experience is just your imagination – no, that is the side of yourself which allows you to connect the world, which allows you to navigate through the world. That’s your instinct, that’s your intuition, that’s your ability to gain insight and knowledge! Your spiritual side can connect to various wells of information that download into you. You can learn so much from just tapping into your spirit and going with it! Your spiritual side can guide you to the resources and to the information that you need to really take charge of your life and really take hold of it! Your empowerment comes from being integrated with your spiritual side! When you are integrated with your spiritual side and you have that connection, then you are strong, you are confident and you are capable of moving forward.

And I see a lot of fake spirituality that actually promotes mind control. When we separate somebody from their spirit, we actually can control them, we can dictate to them what it is that they should do or think, we can guide them, shift them and bend them to our will so that we can spray around our own delusion and projections… And yes, sadly, the world is filled with guru-type figures who never took any amount of time to actually look into their shadow, to actually apply focus to their mind in order to truly see what monsters lurk in there…

This is where true, dedicated, committed inner work comes in. This is where we should allow the understanding that, yes, at some level, we are weak, manipulative, narcissistic pathetic bastards!!! That’s where we explore the fact that we all fall into darkness …Inner work allows us to discover the lost aspects of ourselves, that’s where we discover our truth and that’s where we discover who we are. The journey of inner work is one of empowerment and self-discovery. We need to look into the darkness because darkness is where we can be reborn as our true selves. We see the ways in which our unique psyche tries to rebel against being ripped apart from our spirit…

So many people walk through life completely blind to their truth, completely blind to who they are at their core, forced to live basically an identity that’s not theirs… they’re forced to basically conform to the will of their unconscious darkness. Inner work is where we discover that darkness is not the end of the world, that darkness can actually be the most empowering thing in the world, because when you walk through your darkness, when you understand your darkness, when you can walk with your darkness as a friend, as an ally, then together you are strong, you are unified as a holistic being who will not play its darkness unconsciously onto the world. Dedicated inner work can teach us that no, we might be far, far away from being a being of pure light, that we have real monsters inside of us that are ruling our life. When we look with clarity at ourselves, at our demons inside, at our mental illness, at our emotional haze, those will cease to control us. They will cease to BE us and then we will be integrated, we will be whole, we will be holistic, we will be able to master both the aspects of light and the aspects of darkness within us and the world around!

When you have mastered your own darkness, you are not controllable, you are powerful! When you understand all the aspects of your subconscious mind, you cannot be twisted and manipulated by your deluded mind’s control or your physical urges, you cannot be bent by your sick emotional patterns… When you have a strong mind, when you have a strong body, when you have control over your emotions and you are fuelled by the essence of spirit, you are WHOLE! HAPPY! JOYFUL! INSPIRED! ALIVE!!!

Through my own inner work and my own encounter with my darkness, I understood that there’s so many different layers to each of us, and each one of us is unique and each one of us opens up new areas to explore and discover – that is part of the beauty of inner work, that is part of the individuality of it… it can be The greatest adventure the soul can take, because it’s where you will meet with your dark half and where you will become whole, you will unite with yourself!!! Instead, we are taught to shun our darkness, to repress our darkness, to push it away, to ignore it… it’s like smelling of poo and not looking into it, not washing it, but just add layers and layers of perfume over it..  and this is where it becomes so damaging, because that’s a part of who we are, it’s our essence, it is who we are at our core and if we can’t accept who we are, how can we accept anything? How can we accept the beautiful gifts that we have?

TRUE inner work is where you find a new version of yourself where darkness shifts from being your enemy to being your ally and teacher. And yes, we are not equal in this, we are on a spectrum of darkness and light – some people are very light some people are very dark… and finding your place on it is one of the most powerful things you can do, finding out where you are, where your energies fit in, where your energies blend in. Finding your spiritual side and integrating it can help you answer so many questions about yourself! It can explain so many phenomena about who you are, it can help you understand yourself on a whole another level and it can help you to develop confidence, it can help develop your own power and it can help you to move forward in life.

When darkness is repressed and pushed down into the deep recesses of the subconscious mind, it can command and control you without you EVER realizing it… but when you accept that side of you, when you see it for what it is, you can harness that power and direct it to where you want it to go, you can use it to enhance your journey here and enhance who you are on this path. And this is the way you will become holistic and you will become whole, integrating the lost pieces of yourself to where you’re not their puppet… and this will help you not only attain the skills that you need to make your dreams come true, it will also help you to discover who you are and to feel comfortable in your own skin, it will help you to make sense of your identity here and make sense of who you are as an individual. It will answer some of the deepest and most painful questions about living as a human on this earth…
