The Shadow and the Ego – Self-Creation and the Art of Personal Transformation

The Shadow and the Ego – Self-Creation and the Art of Personal Transformation

 The soul exists essentially as threefold in nature between multiple planes, and as dual in nature within the material plane.  All of life as we know it is comprised of both masculine and feminine energy as an inner and outer aspect of the same mind or idea. This same principle is playing out in the dual aspects of the conscious and subconscious mind, the Cerebellum and Cerebrum, the right and left hemisphere of the brain, and in sexual gender. The soul, which is archetypal in nature, is always acting on itself to create itself. It’s essentially comprised of both a higher and lower nature that it brings together as an integrated whole. The Soul self- creates using both . . .

Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself

Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself: Realizing Your True Self and Embodying Your Power to Consciously Create Yourself › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

The process of personal transformation (Alchemy) as a form of spiritual regeneration comes as a process that has two basic stages. The first stage is what’s often referred to as our psychological healing, where we shed our false ego built through our formative conditioning, and the second comes by learning how to employ the principles necessary for developing our self to a higher level of self-awareness and creativity. The first stage is necessary as a means of laying the proper foundation for creating ourselves through our ability to develop our true character from a fully conscious and self-aware state . . .

One of the biggest challenges we have in life is being able to control our own emotional reactions, or learn how to intentionally cultivate positive emotions in relation to our own thoughts . . .

How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else

How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else: How to Become Aware of Yourself through Your Reaction to Everything Else › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

The outer world and everyone in it is formed as a reflection of our own inner nature, and anytime we're triggered into a reaction of some kind, it directly correlates to a hidden part of our own psyche, called our 'shadow self', which is formed out of our repressed nature. This is natures way of allowing us to 'see into' the hidden aspects of our own psyche so we can bring them into the light of awareness and begin working to transform them using our higher power of realization, choice, and will . . .

Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth

Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth: Seeing Challenges as Opportunities for Personal Growth › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings › Dr. Linda Gadbois

It can be difficult to really grasp how challenging situations, tragedies, and extreme hardships actually provide us with the basis for spiritual growth, but they're the only things that do. Many people think your "spiritual work" is separate from your daily life, when in fact, your daily is what provides you with the perfect means for growing yourself in new ways. We only "grow" when we're forced out of our comfort zone, where we're pushed to the end of our rope and are left not knowing where to go or what to do! I've had a very challenging life and it has provided me with the means for becoming who I am today, and this article is written from my experiences and how it was I used them to develop myself to a higher and more competent level of self-mastery . . .

Exploring the Nature of Dreams – Lucid Dreaming, Higher Forms of Intuition, and the True Nature of Reality as a Mental Projection

Exploring the Nature of Dreams – Lucid Dreaming, Higher Forms of Intuition, and the True Nature of Reality as a Mental Projection: Exploring the Nature of Dreams – Lucid Dreaming, Higher Forms of Intuition, and the True Nature of Reality as a Mental Projection › Dr. Linda Gadbois

One of the ways we can gain a greater understanding of how our "mind projects our reality" is to explore the nature of 'dreaming'. Not just in the sense of nighttime dreams, which is a function of our subconscious mind, but also in terms of what's called 'lucid dreaming', which is where your conscious mind becomes aware within your dream and begins directing how it transpires and unfolds. Once we can gain a better understanding of 'how dreams are produced' by our mind, we can apply that knowledge to our waking life and come to understand how it is we're all 'projecting' our own experience of reality . . . .

We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences

We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences: We Only Cultivate Spiritual Powers through Live Experiences › Dr. Linda Gadbois › https://drlindagadbois.com/we-only-cultivate-spiritual-powers-through-live-experiences/

I've always found it strange how some people see their "spiritual work" as something they do independently of their daily life, as a special form of exercise, practice, or ritual, when, if we look closer at the true nature of reality, we can realize that we only ever "develop ourselves" by embodying new traits when we're in a live situation and pressed against the wall or forced out of our comfort zone. Spiritual development is exercised by how we respond to whatever is happening around us and is acting to stimulate different parts of our character into and active state of expression. We only truly "learn" by doing . . . .

How we Create Ourselves through our Life Experiences

How we Create Ourselves through our Life Experiences: How we Create Ourselves through our Life Experiences › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings ›

Some people find it difficult to understand how it is that in every moment, through every thought and natural or deliberate decision, we're acting to form our own reality, out of which we also form how we "experience" that reality by what we tell ourselves about it, while simultaneously shaping "ourselves" in relation with our own self-produced mental field. The "self", which is something "we create" through purely mental means, isn't our body and personality, it's the entire outer world which serves as the basis for "experiencing ourselves through our own mental projection". We're both the inner (body) and outer (reality in which the body lives) at the same time . . . we're the one creating, or should I say "co-creating" all of it . . .

The Art of Introspection – Self-Knowledge, Awareness, and Tools for Transformation

The Art of Introspection – Self-Knowledge, Awareness, and Tools for Transformation: The Art of Introspection – Self-Knowledge, Awareness, and Tools for Transformation › Dr. Linda Gadbois › Spiritual Sciences - Mystery School Teachings

The most basic purpose of life is to allow our spirit and higher self to produce experiences as a way of "knowing itself", but very few people truly realize how it is they're always acting "on themselves" to first form how they experience everything, while also shaping themselves according to their own experiences. We can have a tendency of always focusing on others and the world at large, instead of turning our attention inward and observing our own internal processes which function in relation with everything else. One of the greatest skills we can learn in being able to consciously facilitate our own growth and development comes by learning the art of introspection and self-observation . . . .
