Steps 10, 11 and 12 to wholeness

Steps 10, 11 and 12 to wholeness

Good Vibrations
By JAGUAR SPEAKS

WE now arrive at the final three steps in our series. All that we have shared is applicable to everyone in Malaysia, as whether we want to admit it or not, we are all addicted to something.

I said earlier in this series that racial and religious intolerance is being inadvertently fostered in many areas of our lives, and only when we embrace our national vision as our way of life can we ever hope to be all that we could be. Lao Tzu told us generations ago: “When I let go of who I am, I can become who I am able to be.”

Despite all I see written and said about understanding each other, I see no practical evidence of this, and tragically, I see no attempts to teach our children that all Malaysians are equal. It’s time we started identifying ourselves as Malaysians ONLY.

When we look at the steps towards transformation, we see that we have to: 1. Accept the reality of our situation; 2. Identify the root causes; 3. Let go of all attachments; 4. Forgive all, including ourselves; 5. Rebuild/redesign our goals/vision; 6. Set intentions; 7. Tell the Universe; 8. Give thanks; 9. Accept the gift of transformation.

When we are addicted to anything, we have to accept the reality of our situation – unless and until we acknowledge that, then we will get worse. Remember that until we acknowledge that we need to change, we will not.

We are all addicted at some level to believing that it is the other person who has to change and I AM OK. Well we are not! Our national level of consciousness is still negative while our immediate neighbours have moved into positive territory.

We are addicted to remaining negative and that is something we should all be ashamed of. As we end the year, we have to ask ourselves if 2007 will be a repeat of 2006 or will it be our year of transformation and becoming whole.

Let’s continue with the final steps to achieving wholeness.

Step 10. I am proud of the depth and strength of my character

I am completely honest and forthright with everyone and myself. This is important. We can project any image we want to others, but honesty, especially to ourselves, is essential if we are to be whole in every sense.

I am someone people want to be with. Yes, when people want to be with me, it’s because I have made myself into someone who makes others feel good and so they want to be with me.

I am someone I want to be with ? now this is getting to the bone of things. If I do not like my own company, who else will? Remember, addiction is a self-love issue or rather a lack of self-love issue.

I have shared before that the way to self-love is to stand in front of a mirror totally naked and say to your self: “I love you as you are.”

I am a “class act”. Now when I looked up the meaning of “class act”, I read that it is someone who shows impressive and stylish excellence. Do I? Do you?

I am me. I am who I am because of the promises I have made and kept. I am also who I am because of the promises I have made and broken to myself. We all have a public face and a private face. The public face is one thing, but it’s our private face that only we see that determines who we truly are.

We make promises to ourselves and when we break them we think we are the only one who knows. However, it’s the promises we break to ourselves that determine what happens the next time we start to become whole. If we have tried and failed, do we honestly know why we have failed?

The Prime Minister recently said he had asked himself 1,000 times why we are not succeeding. It’s easy – we talk, we promise, but we do not act.

Step 11. I delight in discovering what’s true, even if it calls for a big change

I am comfortable with the unfolding and evolving nature of truth. Truth evolves. What was true last year may not be true this year and if that is so, I have to evolve with it. Letting go of our beliefs as we find they no longer support us is a part of our becoming whole.

I have let go of dogma and beliefs. Many of the things we believe are someone else’s beliefs and many of those beliefs are out of alignment with the original teachings. All our religious traditions tell us to avoid believing and acting on what others tell us unless we check for ourselves. If we get agitated at getting an SMS from someone making accusations, and we rush to conclusions without checking, WE are out of alignment and we are addicted to the past.

I don’t push or proselytise: I let people live and believe as they wish. I have no right, no matter who I am, to tell others what to do. If by my life I encourage others to live a better life, then I am happy. I may suggest guides for living, but that’s all I should do. Controlling what others do means we are out of control ourselves, and that’s tragic.

I over-respond to events in order to stay in the flow. What do we mean by over respond? Over responding means we take corrective action to return to balance. When an aircraft goes off course, the pilot does not drift back; the pilot over responds to get back in the flow

Step 12. I have a life

I live where and how I want to. I may live in a rented room, but if it’s home, it’s where I want to be and I love being there. If being there gives me all I need, then that’s where I want to be. I have lived in big houses and single rooms and I have enjoyed them all.

People who love me, show it. When we love someone, we show it from our hearts and the love we show is pure as it is accepted as pure. The love I accept is the love I can share. When I attract love, I am whole.

I enjoy a rich range of activities and interests. At home, at work, with my friends, I take every opportunity to enjoy a varied range of activities and from those activities I learn and become a better person as I share with others.

I am proud of what I am accomplishing in life. My special friend who you will meet in our next column attended a training programme I facilitated in 2001 and I wrote that she would be a future star if properly guided. She has a vision and she has been guided to be proud of everything she is accomplishing in her life. If we can be like her and proud of everything we accomplish, we are whole.

I am enjoying my journey. Everything that happens to me happens at the right time, at the right place, for the right reason, and I enjoy it, even if it’s a bit uncomfortable that I enjoy it because it is my journey and I am becoming everything I wish to be.

Well that’s the 12 steps; keep this series, you or someone you love will need it sooner than you think.

I love Malaysia and I love every Malaysian regardless of race or religion. Sure, some may be out of alignment and need to control others, but I believe that every Malaysian is beautiful and an angel.

Happy New Year. I love you. Watch this space in 2007 for something new and exciting.

I believe in and support a Malaysian Malaysia – do you?
