That insatiable desire prevents present contentment, destroys thankfulness, yes, and keeps the enjoyment of Christ out of the heart…” Can Creator tell us if this is indeed true as opposed to mostly true? Is covetousness truly an INSATIABLE desire—a thirst that can never be quenched? And if it is, how is it that consciousness can fall into such a condition? Is covetousness only a problem with sentient souls, or can lower life forms struggle with this as well? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 week ago • Problems in Society30 views0 answers0 votesFrances Bacon said: “The covetous man cannot so properly be said to possess wealth, as that may be said to possess him.” Bacon is suggesting that covetousness is a form of obsession, and perhaps even a form of possession. Can Creator share with us how interlopers, spirit attachments, and even mind control manipulation can aggravate and take advantage of this proclivity, this vulnerability?ClosedNicola asked 1 week ago • Problems in Society27 views0 answers0 votesMartha Stout, PhD, wrote about the problem of “covetous sociopathy” in her book, The Sociopath Next Door. She writes, “The covetous sociopath thinks that life has cheated her somehow, has not given her nearly the same bounty as other people, and so she must even the existential score by robbing people, by secretly causing destruction in other lives. She believes she has been slighted by nature, circumstances, and destiny, and that diminishing other people is her only means of being powerful. Retribution, usually against people who have no idea that they have been targeted, is the most important activity in the covetous sociopath’s life, her highest priority.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 week ago • Problems in Society36 views0 answers0 votesMartha Stout wrote: “What sociopaths envy, and may seek to destroy as part of the game, is usually something in the character structure of a person with conscience, and strong characters are often specifically targeted by sociopaths. Sociopaths want to play their game with other people. This simple but crucial observation implies that, in sociopathy, there remains some innate identification with other human beings, a tie with the species itself. However, this thin inborn connection, is one-dimensional and sterile, especially when contrasted with the vast array of complex and highly charged emotional responses most people have to one another and to their fellow human beings as a group.” Covetousness seems to be a form of envy. Is envy really the last “connection” the sociopath has to other beings?

Is it the joy and happiness we feel with each other on account of our loving nature that they do not possess nor understand? By sheer observation they can see how pleasurable and satisfying a healthy love relationship can be, and while they might tell themselves it’s all silly foolishness, deep down, do they “know” it’s not? Do they suspect they are “missing out” on something and does this fuel their hatred? Is their arrogance and self-aggrandizement really a cover for deep unrelenting pain they can never successfully suppress entirely? Really, WHY do they hate us so much?

But while the details of healing are carried out by the divine, nothing happens without our intention enabling that healing to be carried out. If divine healing were a pizza, it wouldn’t arrive at your door on its own. You have to order and pay for it. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer, the Lightworker Healing Protocol, Deep Subconscious Mind Reset, and Divine Life Support are the means, really the only means, by which the covetous heart can be healed in all beings, both physical and spiritual?ClosedNicola asked 1 week ago • Problems in Society38 views0 answers0 votes“Shame on you!” We’ve all heard it, and we’ve all said it. The Oxford Dictionary defines shame as both a feeling and an action, “a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior,” as well as, to “make (someone) feel ashamed.” Shame is a feeling nearly everyone everywhere tries to avoid, with the irony being that those most vulnerable to criticism are the ones most prone to overindulge in attempting to elicit that feeling in others. In some ways the dichotomy of shame is perhaps the most profound of hypocrisy litmus tests there is.

If that term is unfamiliar to you, it is worth your time to get familiar with what it really means. Ivan Pavlov demonstrated a “conditioned response” in the dogs he used for experimentation. Some of these experiments were quite cruel and involved electric shocks to impair or elicit both involuntary physiological as well as behavioral responses. The act of shaming is actually a very similar paradigm, and it’s easy to imagine the one doing the shaming as having an electric shock button that they press to deliver a very uncomfortable at best, and excruciatingly painful at worst, emotional shock to the recipient’s consciousness.

An acquaintance has a five-year-old beagle who has an undesirable habit of urinating on the hardwood floor if not put outside on a timely basis. The dog has been trained entirely through rewards and only verbal shaming as punishment. But the effect of shaming can be quite profound. The dog knows that urinating inside the house is undesirable behavior and displeasing to the humans in the house, so the dog makes sure no one is watching when she goes. As an adult dog, she has never been caught in the act. One recent morning this acquaintance found the all too familiar puddle on the floor and turned to the dog right behind them, pointed to the puddle, and said, “No,” just, “No.” Not loud or even conveying much in the way of emotion, just enough to communicate displeasure. The response of the dog was rather extreme—tail between her legs and she wandered off to hide under the raised footrest of a recliner for a few minutes “until the coast was clear.” The acquaintance was a bit “taken aback” at the profound effect of a simple, “No.” This person does not shame the dog very often, and that may be one explanation for the exaggerated effect.

In fact, the very existence of this phenomenon is one of the most persuasive arguments there is for the existence of the divine. It’s hard to take the “conscience” for granted. Unfortunately, we have learned that the feeling of shame is a rather crude form of messaging that can be delivered from multiple sources, some benevolent and some malevolent. Presumably, it can come from the higher self, guides and guardians, and even Creator. It can also be triggered by the deep subconscious, cellular memory, spirit attachments, and perhaps most alarmingly of all, the interlopers—fallen angelics and extraterrestrials. Figuring out both the origin and relevancy of feelings of shame is one of the most profound challenges every human being faces.

The negative effect of all this is that people eventually get cynical about all political discourse and will shy away from it altogether. It’s even more discouraging when the ones doing the most shaming are also the most hypocritical, and the most guilty of the behavior they are shaming the other side for.

The middle finger salute came about as it was common practice in the Middle Ages to cut off the middle finger of captured soldiers, as this finger was necessary for effective archery. Soldiers would come to taunt their enemies by showing them from across the battlefield that they still had their middle fingers. Today this gesture is widely used to communicate, “I reject your efforts to shame me.” As humans are prone to go too far in utilizing compensatory behaviors like this, we often end up rejecting more criticism and shaming in ways that are unwise.

This can result in severe depression, withdrawal, and even suicide. It can even be embraced to the extent that the person fights off those attempting to counteract and heal their shame. The term “hugging your cactus” seems quite on target.

We see this when women frequently criticize men for “not asking for directions” and men almost universally just “laugh it off.” Most men are quite literally shameless when it comes to this behavior. Likewise, many, if not most women, cannot be effectively shamed for taking too long in the bathroom, and ignore such shaming attempts as, “Oh, just so much noise,” often increasing the frustration levels of the partner. More than one divorce ultimately results from these disparities. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 8 months ago • Limiting Beliefs141 views0 answers0 votes
