The sixth red door is marked: SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE
We go to the door and knock.
A message is displayed:
Spiritual guidance hears our call and surrounds us with its love.
When we can no longer stand our fear and pain, we fall to our knees to ask for guidance. Then perhaps, if even for a moment, we can feel the long arm of love as it reaches through our fear and self-pity.
Fortunately, a moment is all that is needed to accept guidance from the realm beyond time. Through our fears, our sorrows, our anger, and our pain, the Hand of LOVE seeks to comfort and ease our tortured heart and weary mind.
Fortunately, a moment is all that is needed to accept guidance from the realm beyond time. Through our fears, our sorrows, our anger, and our pain, the Hand of LOVE seeks to comfort and ease our tortured heart and weary mind.
If we can open ourselves to this love, if we can believe that we DO deserve this it, then we CAN allow it into our hearts. Then we WILL be able to accept the love that has been offered. When we can accept the love from our Higher Self, we can begin to sincerely love others and to allow others to intimately love us.
When we have released the fear and chosen love, the cycle is completed.
Once we have touched our darkness, we can return it to the light.
THE SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE DOOR
Spiritual guidance hears our call and surrounds us with its love.
The Spiritual Guidance Door represents the Spiritual sub-plane of the fourth dimension, which is the base of the Rainbow Bridge leading us into the fifth dimension. The Spiritual sub-plane is the home of our higher human, and our I AM Presence—our Higher Self.
Our Higher Self is the spiritual guidance that rescues us from our fear and pain. It is the hand that holds ours when we will allow no one to love us, and the voice that comforts us when we will not share our sorrow. It is the inner ear that will hear our confessions, and the Heart within our heart that forgives us our mistakes. From the perspective of our spiritual guidance, we cannot become lost. Hard times are spiritual initiations, and mistakes are lessons that teach us to grow.
Unfortunately, this Self is often lost to our unconscious mind.
How can we learn to hear that Self and allow it to guide us to our Soul?
SEVEN STEPS TO SOUL
A Poetic Journey of Spiritual Transformation
by
Suzan Caroll PhD
Seven Steps to Soul is the result of years of contemplation and meditation. I created a special place in my home where I could be alone and undisturbed. Before my meditation I would often prepare my space by lighting candles, playing calm music and choosing a comfortable place to relax.
Often I would sip a warm drink, such as hot tea, as I listened to the music and read a spiritual book. When I finished reading, I would close my eyes, and ponder what I had read and how it related to my life. When I finished my contemplation I would write in my journal to clarify what I had experienced.
At first I wrote in a spiral binder, but gradually I came to value my communications with my Self. I began to buy special books for journaling and attached my favorite pen to them. At first, pain and fear were my strongest feelings.
However, my contemplation allowed me to reveal these emotions to my conscious mind. The expression of these feelings through writing allowed me to find comfort inside myself. This book is laid out so that the reader may follow the same process that was used to write it.
