Changes to Our Belief System While on the Ascension Path
Saturday, June 27th, 2009Growing up we are taught, almost groomed, to believe certain things and that life is a certain way. We are taught and our belief system is built up by so many people in our lives as well as the experiences we go through. People such as our parents, extended family and friends of family, teachers, churches, etc. Our belief system is also affected by experiences both good and bad.
I hear many questions and statements from people that are a product of their belief system. One common thing I hear from people is that they have been taught to believe that they will be punished and go to hell or some other horrible place after death. Some people also believe that if they have committed certain sins they will not be allowed to cross over into the light after death and will then be a lost soul for the rest of eternity. This is of course not truth but may have been ingrained in you from the time you were a small child by sermons you heard at church or during times when your parents were trying to convince you to behave.
On your path you will experience a gradual breaking down and rebuilding of your belief system. It is important to learn to use your abilities of DISCERNMENT along the way. Many times you will be presented with information that feels like a stretch for you to believe. You are not required to immediately accept a new truth but instead take the time to ask yourself if the information feels right to you or do you feel that something is just NOT right about the information you are being presented with. Be open to accepting new truths by not letting having existing truths be the reason for rejecting the new.
