Dear Friends,
This week's quote is from spiritual awareness class A/V Seminar 35, which will be published in Volume 13 of The Living Light Dialogue.
". . . you must remember, everyone will agree what they are attached to, they are emotionally controlled by. Is there anyone who will not agree with that? Everyone who’s had a meaningful relationship or marriage or any of those things, you see, will agree, I know, will agree that whatever you are attached to, you are, to the degree of your attachment, controlled by. All right? But then try to understand, an adversity is only an undeveloped attachment. It is growing. It is an attachment. A person says, “Well, I’m adverse to this,” or “I’m intolerant of that.” That’s what it is. You are creating and solidifying a judgment. . .
And in so doing you’re guaranteed to service it someday in your life. So the more adverse you are to anything, the more intolerant you are, the more you are controlled by it, until you serve it as a complete attachment. That is the law of that function of attachment and adversity. So take a good look. I mean, everyone is familiar and knows their attachments. Few, very few people are even aware of their adversities. They push them aside. They don’t even want to think about them. Yet those adversities are growing into very strong attachments, and they will be servicing them in keeping with how great that attachment is. For an adversity is a growing attachment because you direct energy to it. That which you direct energy to and that you have created begins to grow up and grow very strong. Yes. And then a person wonders, “Why did I have this experience? I wasn’t attached to this.” No, you were adverse to it and did not accept the demonstration that an adversity is a growing attachment."
One of the sayings that was published in the first book of Living Light teachings was, "Our adversities become our attachments. It is a subtle law."
I am pleased to announce that Volume 12 of The Living Light Dialogue has just been published. It contains 19 spiritual awareness classes, known as the A/V Seminars, that were given to a small group of students. Although the classes touch upon a wide variety of topics, many primarily focus on one topic. One class is dedicated to what we will experience when we pass on and leave our physical forms. As with the other volumes, Volume 12 is available on Amazon, Serenity's website, and may be ordered from your local bookstore. A PDF of the volume is also available on Serenity's website. Considering the costs of mailing and where you live, the total cost may be less expensive if you purchase your copy from Amazon or your local bookstore.
Those who are new to Serenity, you will find recent quotes on Serenity's Facebook Fanpage and that is also where you can join students of the Living Light from around the world to ask questions and share your understanding. I hope you will join the conversation.
If you have any topics you would like addressed in these weekly emails, please feel free to email your request.
