The most important thing in shamanism is freedom

~ florries ~ Leave a comment

Love is always the basics of any spiritual journey. However, in shamanism, freedom is essential. Most of all, freedom of the mind or better said, in ones awareness. It allows you to really see, beyond concepts, to travel the worlds beyond without hindrance and to live without judgement. All of this is truly vital in the healing work of a shaman or shamana, as well as in ones own shamanic spiritual journey.

To interact with what truly IS

Freedom allows one to become as shamans call it fluid in ones awareness. To let go of societal constraints and reduce destructive learned behavior as well as trauma bindings or fears based upon bad experiences are all essences in many spiritual teachings. In shamanism however, it is not only essential but lies at the very core of the practice. Fluidity in ones consciousness allows one to really see and interact with what IS, with the true nature of existence and others. Thus one can act as a messenger between this world and the beyond, as well as be a conduit of true compassion and love.

A difficult but rewarding path

Often shamanic healing work is based in helping others achieve new levels of freedom within themselves. To do so, requires a level of freedom within the society that one lives in. Often a shaman or shamana lives a bit secluded from the rest of his or her community, to be able to act without being too influenced by the expectations or power struggles that usually flourish in a society.

To be truly free, from concept or within ones social field, takes a lot of work and can be difficult at times. But to be successful on a shamanic path it’s the key that opens the door to everything else. So if you are interested in shamanism or are already on this path, claim your freedom every day, the best you can! You will be grateful further down the road.

Love creates reality

So tired of so many in the spiritual world being so extremely focused on manifestation and money mindset. I’m all for people living the life that they dream of, but if I hear “your thoughts create your reality” one more time, I’m gonna scream! 😅

The universe can surprise you

Love creates reality, fueled by passion, with thoughts and emotions as sparks. We create reality together, in a mysterious dance with all that already exists. And a thought or emotion that you have gets an answer from the universe and your surroundings, it’s not a copy-paste function. Just like another person can answer with something that surprises you, or respond to a negative emotion with compassion, so can the universe and the collective consciousness!

Of course there’s also a physical component to creation, doing. And of course we are powerful beings, able to influence and inspire creation with just a bit of focus.

Focus on the heart

But life is full of surprises, and it should be. Our focus should lie on love, compassion and freedom first and foremost. Then manifestation can be a dance that you enjoy, together with existence. To focus too much on manifesting what you want might lead to domination games and the like, and why get into that.

Manifest all you like, sure, but focus on the heart and to be a free warrior of love. That’s the true secret to happiness 🙌

That the material world and the ego are illusions is just a perspective

~ florries ~ Leave a comment

My experience is that reality is made up of different dimensions and a bit more, and that these all exist in their own way. That everything is an illusion is an experience that one can have from a certain perspective, but that does not make it “the truth”, partly because from several other perspectives it is not like that at all. It can be liberating to experience how material reality and the ego are changeable, even appear like illusions or projections, when viewed from certain “states of mind” in lack of a better expression. And of course they can be experienced completely different than they are from the perspective of, for example, the physical eyes and body.

Nevertheless, there are also perspectives from which the material reality is very real and these provide real experiences, which are important as well as a constant feed into who we are and are becoming, which in itself makes them real.

Don’t kill your ego

The ego is changeable, but incredibly important for living. Thinking that it’s an illusion or that you should “kill it” can be a great evolutionary perspective in short instances, however it can be destructive if kept as a constant belief. Letting the ego be free and adaptable, transformative – at a rate that harmonizes with one’s need for a certain stability or permanence in order to have time to reflect and integrate – is rewarding and a prerequisite for walking the spiritual path in a deeper sense.

Thinking that material reality is an illusion can be an inspiration, but if it becomes a dogma, that you believe it is “the truth”, it can be very destructive and lead to, for example, a difficulty to ground yourself and enjoy the physical aspects of life.

Creating

Creation moving
all I’m doing
is to breathe, wish
and let go
do I know
that what I want
will unfold? No.

That’s not the
point to me
what I want is
to be free
steadily
connected to the heart
in a flow of love
without a start

It’s just there
to share
be aware
if mind and control
is how you role
what you want here
might appear
but without connection
to the perfection
which true love brings

In lack of dynamic
it holds you ’till you panic
or force others to carry your fear
just to see what you want here

Without love and freedom
creation brings boredom
and even certain doom
since there’s no room
for true inspiration
bringing transformation
and continuation
of thought
and will gets
caught
in the web of fear
just to see what you want appear
before allowing your heart
to grant real wishes full of true art

Love and freedom
is how I breathe
moving with creation
dancing with what’s
underneath
allowing myself to be influenced
into a wish that can follow
making sure to remain
hollow
allowing love to
flow through
it’s the best that
I can do
to make my real wishes
come true
