Method of purification and elimination of egoic tendencies
You can
use this method for weak expressions of egoic tendencies, however, it is
especially appropriate and powerful means to eliminate egoic tendencies,
habits, impulses, passions, negative emotions that recur often or strongly and
we cannot deal with it effectively and constantly urge us to give in and
express them. By this method, which we can apply it at home or wherever we can,
we achieve a deeper cleansing and greater weakening of the egoic
tendencies (in whatever form) than
doing the simple prayer I have mentioned. ////
This method which is a prayer-request similar to the short prayer for the elimination of egoic tendencies but much richer and more complete and goes deeper into the process of purification and cleansing of the mind, heart, subconscious mind, vital-emotional energy and the body.
Comment
This method came to me as an inspiration to deal with the egoic tendencies that I have difficulty in handling and to free myself from the pressure they exert on me. It is a method based on the prayer of the spiritual code but adapted according to my own inspiration, understanding and experience in eliminating egoic tendencies. It is also similar to the method of eliminating the ego on the 49 subconscious levels, which is not included in this book.
Before
applying this method, I recommend that you first do some investigation about
the egoic tendency that you want to weaken and eradicate from your psyche.
However, you can also use this method without first doing this investigation in
case you do not have time or are not in a position to do it at that
moment.
As I
have said, you can use the method to eliminate the tendency even without first
making an investigation of it. However, to achieve this effectively it is very
important that through self-observation you have become sufficiently aware of
the egoic tendency you want to eliminate.
In other
words, it is important that you have a clear insight and awareness of the
tendency that manifests itself in you, rather than having a vague or undefined
picture of it.
It is important and indispensable that you acquire a clearer knowledge and awareness of the tendency you wish to eliminate through careful observation of it whenever it manifests in you. Therefore, even if you have not understood it in-depth, if you have a clear perception of this tendency, you can apply this method to weaken it.
Nonetheless, you can do the investigation of the egoic tendency at another time. I emphasize that it is important to do this research to understand it as broadly as possible and to realize some important things for its elimination. I recommend that you investigate the egoic tendency for some time in several sessions so that you become more and more aware of it, disidentify yourself from it as much as possible, deepen your understanding of it and realize that it does not benefit you, that it is something that is acting within you against your Will, that you are not it, that it is making you unhappy, that it is preventing you from living in peace, love and happiness. In this way, the Will to be free of this tendency will naturally strengthen in you. The more we become aware of the above and disassociate ourselves from the egoic tendency, the more our Will to eliminate it will be strengthened and the more willing we will be to do anything to eliminate it from our psyche.
Adopt a relaxed, comfortable and stable position. Then you can follow a process similar to the preparation you do for meditation aiming to get in touch with the silent presence in the centre of your being, the deepest part of yourself. Next, make a prayer to Divine Mother or God as you may perceive Him to help you in this process of eliminating the egoic tendency.
Divine Mother is the aspect of God that has the power to cleanse and purify our minds and hearts of egoic tendencies.
Then you
recall the event that manifested the tendency so that to provoke it manifest
and consciously and attentively feel it. You experience it with full attention
maintaining as deep a contact as possible with the inner silence of your Being
so that avoid identifying with it. From this state, you say the following
prayer from your heart.
In case
this tendency (passion, emotion or whatever) when remembering the event is
expressed quite strongly and drives you to identify with it, you can apply
before the prayer some of the methods I present in UNITY IV to deconstruct it
and appease it significantly and connect more deeply with the inner silence.
Then, being aware of the silence and the tendency (let’s say that you
have examined an issue related to anger), you do the following prayer.
While
saying the prayer we can place our hands where we feel the egoic energy and
also make a few passes of the hands close to the body, from the head to the
abdomen.
I also re-emphasize the importance of saying the prayer with concentration and heart and in contact with inner silence.
My Divine Mother, Divine Mother of
the Universe, Supreme light of power, love and healing energy,
I beg
you with all my heart to fill me with divine light, power and healing energy
and
- purify
and cleanse my mind and heart from anger energy (or
lust, jealousy, etc.),
- Divine light, power and healing energy fill my whole being and
- purify and cleanse my mind and heart from anger energy
- purify and cleanse all (49) subconscious levels from all images, memories and impressions related to anger
- purify and cleanse the vital energy from all anger energies and blockages,
- purify and cleanse all cellular memories of neurons and brain related to anger,
- purify and cleanse all levels (bodies) of my existence from all elements related to anger, and
- restore purity, light, health and harmony to my mind and heart, life energy and all bodies.
While saying the prayer we can also place our hands on the area where we feel the egoic energy (5 cm from the body) and also make some passes of the hands around this area and also some passes from the head to the abdomen to help the elimination of the energy.
Repeat
the prayer as many times as you feel to do it at that moment, ideally until you
feel that the energy has completely appeased. There is no limit to the number
of times we can do the prayer, but the minimum is to do it at least three
times.
After doing this prayer for a few times, we remain in silence for a while and then we can assess how much we have reduced the power of the egoic tendency (passion, defect, desire, emotion or whatever) we have been working on. We do this by recalling again the event in which the tendency had manifested itself. The less strongly the tendency is expressed as we recall the event, it means that the more its power has diminished. If we see that the tendency persists in manifesting itself strongly, we repeat the prayer a few more times. Then we re-evaluate the results.
After the prayer, we can continue with positive affirmations and visualizations. If we have examined, for example, an incident of anger, we first do the prayer and then visualize ourselves and others imbued with light, expressing love to them by repeating affirmations such as
‘I love you’, ‘You are peace, love and light’, ‘I wish you peace, love and light’. ‘Peace I am, Love I am, light I am, Om peace, Om love, Om light, Om, Om, Om,’.
Next, we can, repeat some affirmations of peace and serenity such as:
- ·
My mind remains calm and quiet even when I am
spoken to harshly or rudely.
- ·
My mind remains calm and serene even if things
don't turn out as I expected.
- ·
In all circumstances, my mind remains calm, serene
and peaceful.
- · Nothing can disturb the serenity and peace of my mind.
As we repeat the affirmations about love, peace, calmness and tranquillity, it is important to enter as much as possible into that state. We can evoke this state by recalling moments of peace, love and serenity or by remembering something that helps us enter this state.
We
finish the process by expressing gratitude to the Divine Mother, and without
losing contact with the inner silence and repeating the name of God, we
continue our activities.
I remind you also that the work of eliminating this particular tendency, as well as all others, continues throughout the day moment by moment using the methods I have proposed in this book.
Combining the prayer with EFT
We can combine the prayer of dissolution with EFT which is a very simple, practical and a direct and effective method of cleansing the egoic energies. We can do for example three times the prayer and then three times the EFT process. Afterwards we can evaluate the result of the process as I have mentioned above.
Using prayer without first doing the investigation
We can also use prayer for the dissolution of the tendency and all other means (visualizations, etc.) without first making the inquiry recommended above in case we do not have time or are not in a position to do it at that moment. However, to do this effectively it is necessary to have become sufficiently aware of the egoic tendency to be eliminated.
It is important to know the tendency well by observing it every time it manifests itself in you. In other words, it is important that we have a clear vision and awareness of the tendency manifesting in us, rather than having a vague or undefined image of it.
Certainly, when we have worked for a long time with a tendency, when we have investigated it deeply for a long time and have reached a deep awareness, knowledge and understanding of it, then it is not necessary to first inquire into it to apply prayer for its dissolution but we can, after remembering the situation and activating the tendency and becoming fully aware of it proceed directly to its dissolution with prayer and also use visualizations, affirmations and other methods such as EFT.
Finally, I remind you that there are no
fixed or rigid ways to apply the methods we learn. After some time of
experience, or even after a few attempts (whenever possible), we can make adjustments and
changes and apply the methods in the way we find most convenient, practical and
effective.
