The recent context:
“What are we actually aligned with ??” – the title was created at least two years ago but perhaps I have got the right content for it now. The realisation came to me this morning when I caught myself ‘thinking’ the fear of losing a dear one. When I introspect, such thoughts have always been a part of me. However, during the last few years, I have found myself catching them as they come. In other words, I have become increasingly aware. Today, the thoughts were ‘what if something happens to him on the way to work?’, ‘anything can happen’, ‘what if?’ Then I tell myself, if he was to attract that, there was nothing I could do to prevent it. I definitely do not have control over anyone else’s life.
Next line of thought: ‘He must have been in a bad mood and angry when he left home’. As a matter of fact, I had told him, “I don’t know why you don’t communicate, you seem to be in your own world!”. It was not an outburst of anger, for sure, but I had said the words, nevertheless. He did not respond, though. If you would ask me, I do not like to leave home like that. Consciously, I was removing the guilt element away from me and then it happened.. as if from no where! There came this realisation!!
We attract more of what we are!
All the realities of life are already in existence. We manifest a reality in our life when we align our vibration with that reality. In other words, we match our vibration with the frequency of that reality. So, if I want to live a rich and abundant life, I need to have a rich and abundant attitude. This means thinking abundant thoughts, feeling like a rich person and doing the things like I have money in abundance.
In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna calls it Maya. It’s there, it’s not there. To simplify this further, it’s there for someone who connects, it’s not there at all for another person who’s operating on a different frequency.
If we attract what we are, then the same should apply to the end of life as well, right? I do not have the slightest intention to bring in a sad topic and create sadness and gloom. However, this subject comes from a place of understanding that most of our deepest fears and uncertainties are about life and death.
Many of us have anxieties about our own health and health of loved ones. Anxiety is when the fear manifests at the level of the body and we tend to suppress it. However, the sad truth is that most people are not even aware of their deepest fears.
Examples:
In Homeopathy, we call that a compensated state. This can be explained like this, for eg., a timid child can with learned behaviour grow up into an outwardly courageous adult. Most of the time, the outwardly courageous individual in society is not even consciously aware of his/her deepest fears.
Another example that comes to my mind is that of a person who always feared being abandoned and lonely, deep inside. In his community, he was the one who was always ready to give a helping hand and be present to manage everything be it a wedding or funeral.
We manifest everything, good and bad:
So coming to the point, if our subconscious thoughts are more, for example of:
∇ Intense fear of death or presentiment of death
∇ Loathing life or being disheartened with life
∇ Feeling worthless and not fit to live
∇ Total demoralisation
∇ Extreme unhappiness
∇ Not wanting to live and wishing everything would end,
Then we have an alignment here, with possibly, the worst of our fears.
The timing of when the results would happen is the only uncertainty perhaps.
When we grow old and die?
When people lead a good life, 
grow really old and die, look at what happens. They eventually have less energy, their metabolism slows down, they eat less. In short, they slowly align with the end stages of life and this is inevitable. That’s how it is in nature, right?
So what’s in our hands?
The abundance of life is for everyone. The onus is on us to create the right thoughts, right feelings(emotions) and do the right things(actions). Yes, attitude is the magic word as Earl Nightingale calls it and of course it’s to keep the right attitude that will keep the inner soul happy.
The Soul connection:
Let’s consider the example of a Sand Timer. Our soul energy at the beginning of our life, ideally is like the Sand Timer, with the upper bulb filled with sand. As we grow older, the upper bulb empties as is our soul energy. None of us knows how much sand is left in the upper half.
A parallel understanding is that of paradigms. With passage of time and life usually the paradigms get stronger and stronger too. Most of the time our paradigms are not ours, we have either picked them from our parents or our grandparents, let’s say our environment.
It’s not uncommon for people to go so much deeper into their paradigms that the original self becomes unrecognisable. For example, a person who felt abandoned early in life, most likely, feels more and more abandoned when there is no understanding or awareness of the paradigm. Throughout life, the individual takes efforts to feel less abandoned and eventually the paradigm completely takes over. Now, the person resigns to fate and is in an abandoned state.
In the homeopathic case take, we take the rubric, “Mind/ Delusions, imaginations; deserted, forsaken:” when that’s the deepest and strongest inner belief. A delusion is a false perception.
The Homeopathic Significance:
Ideally during the homeopathic case take, the Homeopathic practitioner listens carefully without any prejudice, asks only the right questions as and when needed. He/ She lets the natural process to flow to unveil the language of the patient’s soul, the true self. This frequency then has to be matched with the frequency of the soul essence of one remedy, from the numerous plant, mineral and animal remedies. I am sure this will explain why combinations cannot produce the real homeopathic cure.
Let’s consider a situation and say the initial paradigm of patient X for eg., is ‘I am not valued’. Obviously, X is not happy about that. Hence from childhood, the focus has been to do everything in order to feel valued and in the process he has become successful but also burnt himself out. The latter condition is because without realising the existence of such a paradigm, there is minimal possibility of changing it.
Exception:-
(A sudden emotional impact or trauma can create the shift). This may not be common, though.
Going with the paradigm:
The adult X and child X may be polar opposites when the paradigm becomes stronger. In most situations, adult X does not remember his child self or simply cannot connect. With time, X usually forgets why he has been working the way has. Does he feel good and more valued? ‘NO’ You know why? He never changed his paradigm or downgraded it in the first place! During the homeopathic case take, this is the challenge because what appears on the exterior seems to be the reality.
In a nutshell, going along the paradigm cannot be a soul enriching process but rather soul depleting.
Sometimes, a patient Y is sad. She does not remember any particular situation that has contributed to that. It’s often a conditioning from being raised in a sad, depressive environment.
(Note: A particular gender has been used purely for convenience sake and just to serve the purpose of conveying the message)
Dissatisfaction is said to be a creative state:
I believe the true meaning of this is to keep growing in awareness or consciousness, so to say.
Different people connect to the Homeopath differently based on their individual levels of consciousness. This leads to the potency selection. So, how right it would be to say that the patient guides us to his/ her own remedy.
Work in progress..
