Reflections from #Infinity -
#spirituality
Most of our faith begins with believing in the vague, but
intriguing, idea of infinitus—limitless or endless being. The possibility of
substance having no end is like watching a computer come up with a myriad of
programs and information from a tiny hard drive, then sending it in seconds to the
other side of the world. The first
time I watched an airplane take flight I had a similar feeling. Most people
have trouble wrapping their minds around infinity. My mother, who was born in
the 1930s and who had to cook with coal in the stove and go to the bathroom
outside, can barely fathom the capability of a computer or cell phone. But
infinity seems to be a state she can understand more easily.
Imagining a place outside of the realm of time seems to be
even a larger stretch for my 3-dimensional mind. Yet, if we believe what most
scriptures say, a place exists outside of the reality of time, where spirit is
changeless and peaceful.
I get glimpses of this place when I #meditate. When I find
that place between sleep and awake, I want so strongly to stay floating
forever. The feeling of divine meditation resembles one hand falling asleep
while you are yet awake. You can’t feel your arm, but you can move it, perhaps
with your other hand. The other hand would be likened to your observer mind or
the subconscious. The observer seems to be able to draw the mind to a quiet,
weightless bliss all at the same time. If this state can be available for every
human in this life, then a metaphor exists for me about eternity.
What I’m saying is: to find your belief in an eternal
existence starts with #meditation. If you never learn to counterbalance ego
reality with spirituality, you will never find a spiritual path worth taking.
Trust me, friends, I have been teaching this for a long time and know many
spiritual practitioners. They vary in many ways, but one thing is for sure, all
of them have had some kind of epiphany involving an out of body experience or
vision.
When you have a miracle like Jesus walking through your wall
and climbing into your heart, you absolutely never forget that moment. I get it
that not everyone is going to have these out of body experiences or open
visions, but I do believe that if a person opens his/her mind to infinitus then the likelihood of an
experience exactly like I described above could happen.
I don’t limit God or spirit. I imagine, when I pray, that a
myriad of information downloads into my finite mind. How God chooses to use the
information can’t be left up to me. Most times, I have no idea what to do with
half of what I see in spirit. Yet, when I act on my spiritual impulse, I am
almost always correct.
Just yesterday I sent an email to a person who needed to
hear the exact words I wrote. In fact, he told me that he imagined hearing
these words from me, before I even said them. In my meditation, did I tear down
the wall between the dimensions, rent the veil, to be able to hear what was on his mind, or was I simply
open to spirit helping him through me? This has no matter to me. If I make what
God does through me my business, then I have already slipped into the ego
without even knowing it.

Below is information that I will be sharing for about a
month, as not every person on my list reads the blog every day. If you have
already read it, just skip over it. Thanks for understanding.
A
Year to CLEAR Challenge:
(Please Know: You Can Join Us At Any Point in the Year
Challenge.)
The masses search outward for things that qualify them as a
person, but I always go inward for that which quantifies me for greatness. At
twenty-five I preached on street corners in NYC as an in-the-closet Pentecostal
minister. One day I heard a still small voice say, ‘God cannot be contained in a
book or a law or even in a religion. Dig deeper, reach further to find me, and
you will find your authentic Self.’”
A Year to CLEAR Challenge!
The acronym CLEAR
stands for (Compassionate, Loving,
Enthusiastic, And Relationship-Ready). The goal of this project is to
engulf readers in a weekly study that will transform them by removing blocks,
promote self-growth, and give them wings to fly freely into daily life. Each
week, by going to BoSebastian.com and choosing the Year to CLEAR Challenge tab,
a new challenge or thought to provoke conversation, growth, and group
functionality.
My vision is to make Finding Authentic You the book to
have in your Kindle or on your computer. The book is a comprehensive look at
growth—spiritually, mentally, and physically.
As a yoga teacher and student of the Ayurvedic tradition, I bring
to the table understanding of physical challenges, the ability to overcome
mental problems with Life & Health Coaching, as well as hypnotherapy, and
expertise in meditation and spirituality as a minister.
The combination of all three in one book with an interactive
connection to like-minded readers, for one year, is what makes this Year to
CLEAR Challenge a must-do for every spiritual seeker.
The One-Year Approach to Change
No one believes he or she can change overnight. But success in
change comes from the metaphors of nature. Seasonally, life changes all around
us in nature. Finding Authentic You offers a gradual change perspective,
looking at the triune aspects of change as in yoga: Body, Mind and Spirit.
Accessing the
ability to change and finding
yourself actually pursuing change must be a daily search, which I call
getting to the “observer mind.”
In this frontal cortex of the brain we find the anatomy of
change and the power to counter every negative trigger of the human process.
The workings of Hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye
Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) are all positive actions to help the
mind and body flow to a positive space for change.
Every aspect of FINDING AUTHENTIC YOU fulfills this
constant need for diffusing the negative past and dreaming of a fulfilling
future.
Step 1: Recognize That Change is Inevitable
Step 2: Release from Resistance
to Change
Step 3: Understanding Change and Allow Spirit to Define It
Step 4: A History Lesson—About You
Step 5: Look at Your Past with Compassion
Step 6: Making a Strong Commitment to Change
Step 7: Dream Your Fabulous Future
