1989.05.14 Recognising Catalyst/Emotions

[Plenum]

this is a great little piece which highlights the importance of being aware (and becoming more aware) of the nature of our experience ('The Illusion') and what it really means, what it is pointing to:

Carla: Well, I’d like to clarify that, too. To me there is a distinction between surface emotions, which are almost always destructive, and deep emotions which are intelligent emotions.

J: I feel that anger and hatred and things like that are very destructive, but I can see that they would help the individual if they helped them, but only if they could be intelligent enough to become aware of what happened and how they can learn from the situation. But if the person’s not intelligent enough, I guess, or doesn’t want to be aware of the situation, is wont to display the dramatic emotions, I feel that that may be self-centered, but I’m not sure if it is, because it may have some effects, I guess. I don’t know. I guess that’s what I want to know.

I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother.

The ability of the seeker to consciously recognize catalyst is primary to any learning in a conscious sense.

Most entities within your illusion have only the barest conscious glimpse of the value of the emotions which mark their biases and growth potential, shall we say.

Such entities must experience the same catalyst, whether it is intensely felt anger or blandly experienced boredom, over and over again before the catalyst makes its mark within the conscious mind strongly enough to draw the attention there to discover the possibility of balancing that exists within every bias.

Whether the emotion is small and superficial or deep and [perceived as dangerous], the lesson that is possible within any situation remains as a function of the intensity of the bias.

one of the great things about the Ra material (and the supporting LLResearch channelings) us that it gives you the tools and the framework in which to 'frame' such understandings, and then be able to work with experience ie catalyst, more effectively and efficiently.

part of the 'suppression of humanity' if you will is done via the tool of ignorance; and keeping the 'folks' away from the true, empowering knowledge. Of course, in today's times, and with ubiquitous internet, no more excuses! lol.

but yes, recognition of catalyst and emotional states is so so important.

Recognition makes all the difference, indeed. Thanks plen.

this is zen from a little while back, but still highly pertinent and true:

I'm not sure why people choose to work directly on chakras when they are simply indicators. After all you have all the information for balancing available as constant and unrelenting feedback. If it's another person's catalyst being observed, you have that as well in the form of their set of personal symbols which will be automatically translated to your set.

this 'constant and unrelenting feedback' is the state of your mind and consciousness. These are the 'feelings'.

if there is balance, there is acceptance and love as the emotional undergirding ... if there is anything else, then some discordance will be felt.

and working with catalyst, one will be almost compelled to see the catalyst as 'external' and the 'other'. That is because the catalyst is pointing to something that has not been accepted by the self yet, and so indeed, it is regarded as 'separate' and 'outside'.

if the catalyst is worked with effectively, the end state is that you should be able to call to mind the event or person that triggered the catalyst, and view them with a loving glance. If you call that person to mind, and there some feeling of 'they need to change this' or 'they need to adjust their behaviour' or 'they make me feel bad' ... then the catalyst is still working it's way in the mind. Of course, the 'image' you have of that person in your head has almost ZERO relationship to the person themselves ... you are just holding onto a memory of an experience or interaction when you call that individual to mind. The catalyst is nothing more than an internal actor in your consciousness ...

when that individual can be viewed with a loving and accepting eye, then that corresponding portion of the self has been effectively integrated and accepted.

all interactions and all relationships we ever have are just triggers to see the portions of the spectrum of consciousness that have not been claimed as self yet. And most likely, for an individual who has lived a reasonable amount of time on this planet, those 'unclaimed' portions have actively been rejected or diminished sometime in the past, rather than merely being unexplored parts of the self.

[Adonai One]

If catalyst consists of every emotion, then boy there's a lot to work on in our lifetimes.

[Plenum]

yep, this is true Adonai!

Ra said it best ...

"Thus the gradual increase in the ability to observe one’s reactions and to know the self will bring the self ever closer to a true balance. Patience is requested and suggested, for the catalyst is intense upon your plane and its use must be appreciated over a period of consistent learn/teaching."
