How to move towards unconditional self-love and divine relationships
A THREAD
A THREAD
In the last thread, we investigated the distinction between Neurotic Love (or Matrix Love) and Unconditional Love (Divine Love).
Now that our mind knows the difference, the question is: How can we actually implement the highest form of love in our lives?

Well, I personally did not really internalize this distinction yet so the universe kicked me in the face: The lady I am interested in got back together with her ex-boyfriend and did not step into my life as I expected. I felt devastated and confused.
What is the lesson here?

This morning, I listened to the song "How He Loves" by Paul McClure:
"We are His portion
And He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking"
"We are His portion
And He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking"
At the following part of the song, I broke down in tears with an intense realization:
"So heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about the way that He loves us"

It all made sense now! There are several lessons which we can apply to actually implement divine love into our relationships:
1) Seeking love from God and not from other people
2) Overcoming childhood traumas
3) Focusing on divine beauty and gratitude

1) Seeking love from God instead of people
Our culture taught us that we need to seek love and approval through our relationships (partners, friends, family). This is false and only leads to suffering as we attempt to "steal" each other's energy in mutual control & manipulation.

The 4th insight of the Celestine Prophecy explains how we are unconsciously trying to suck off other people's energy once we lost our divine connection.
In romantic relationships, this often leads to a downward spiral of mutually suffocating each other energetically.

But what is the alternative?
Once we re-establish our divine connection through unconditional self-love, we have access to unlimited energy overflowing our being, as the 5th insight of the Celestine Prohecy explains:

2) Overcoming childhood traumas
Another thing we need to do to reach more self-love and better relationships is to overcome our past traumas, especially those from the childhood. Every triggering situation is a chance to meet with our hurt inner child and to overcome the past.

The first step to heal our inner child is to become aware of the trigger and of the negative emotions connected to the past trauma.
We then need to resist the urge to distract ourselves (e.g. through addictions) and to just feel those emotions, embracing and accepting them.

Just feeling those negative emotions, giving them and our hurt inner child our loving attention, oftentimes is already enough to release them through tears and laughter.
We instantly feel a sensation of liberation and lightness in our bodies.

Kyle Cease @kylecease explains this perfectly. Once we faced and healed our childhood traumas, the mind stops the negative protection and deflection patterns and we get a totally fresh and unburdened perspective on our lives:
The 6th insight of the Celestine Prophecy corroborates this point: The more we heal our past traumas, the easier we can maintain our divine connection to access higher energies.
Our control and manipulation patterns will also cease eventually, thus breaking vicious cycles:

3) Focusing on the divine beauty and gratitude
After we healed our past, we can see the world through a more neutral lens and we are opening up for a constant flow of opportunities.
To augment this process, we can focus on the beauty of everything and practice gratitude.

The 8th insight of the Celestine Prophecy highlights the fact that we should not lose our divine connection in romantic relationships by becoming addicted to another person.
In this case, we would attempt to extract energy from the partner instead of our higher selves:

An excellent explanation of the 8th insight of the Celestine Prophecy with regards to the common problems in our romantic relationships and how we could eventually overcome them to move to the "next level":
Once we have implemented those lessons through discipline and determination in our lives and are able to continuously maintain our divine connection, we can freely give others our energy.
If done so in groups, this can lead to a powerful upward spiral of mutual upliftment:

CONCLUSION
Again, I was taught an immensely valuable lesson through suffering:
Other people cannot fill our lack of self-love and make us whole. Every relationship built on this foundation will only create another vicious cycle of suffering and despair.

To be able to step towards divine relationships, we need to reconnect to the infinite love of God by loving ourselves unconditionally, overcoming our childhood traumas by revisiting and feeling them and by focusing on beauty and practicing gratitude on a daily basis.
