Follow the Heart’s Desires

Question:     What do you mean by ‘following the heart’s desires’?

Higgins:     When you, any of you, have an inclination towards something or away from something, that inclination is information designed to guide you. These inclinations are a sort of steering system controlled by the Broader Being. This Broader Being knows what is right and wrong for you and also those things that will make you very happy.

Let’s envision the game of bowling. There is a long lane (life) with pins set up at the end of the lane. The pins represent things that make you happy. The gutter on either side of the lane is the unhappy place. There are bumpers on either side of the lane for learners. Liken these bumpers to inclinations that inform you to avoid something. (You know, like when you just don’t want to do something and you don’t know why exactly but it just doesn’t sound right for you.)

The pins on the other hand…the pins, when you think about knocking them down, that makes you happy. Happy:  That’s the goal. The bumpers, your inclinations for and against, keep you from dropping in the gutter…the unhappy place you don’t want to go.

Now you, the bowling ball, start off down the long lane of life trying to knock down as many pins as possible because that makes you happy. That is what we mean by following the heart’s desires. The heart informs you (the body and Earth Soul in combination is you) what makes you happy based on what the Broader Soul knows about you.

When you do what makes you happy you are following your heart’s desires. It is up to each of you as individuals to determine (by following those inclinations) those things that make you happy. Furthermore, the purity of the happiness you follow is important. Happiness at the expense of others is impure. Happiness that harms none is pure.

Following the heart towards happiness in this way leads to the discovery of each person’s unique  ‘It’ thing. Every person is born with a personal gift or gifts and it is the following of the heart towards happiness that will lead to the discovery of these gifts. The development of skill in these gifts leads to greater happiness and the more the gift is shared the happier one becomes, assuming that a gentle balance is maintained in the overall life picture.

You Are Equally Important

I’ve been contemplating this from Higgins:

You (humans) are not created equal. What you are is equally important.

Life is about the pursuit of happiness. It is about finding happiness and that ‘it’ thing. Whatever ‘it’ is for you is where you will find your happiness.

We are obligated by birth to pursue and explore our interests. We each are gifted at something. It is our duty to find that thing and live our lives in the thrill of doing that thing. Why? Because one cannot feel both gloomy and thrilled at the same time…or sick and thrilled or angry and thrilled….A person may only feel one emotion at a time and it may as well be thrilled.

Name the change we all want to see in the world: We want to move from a paradigm of domination to one of active participation where the happiness of one and all is the motivating factor behind all of our decisions. Ask ourselves: How will the decision that I make about me today affect all of us today, tomorrow and for the next seven generations?

Telepathic Communication with Person with Asperger Syndrome

Question:     I’d be fascinated to hear Higgins’ comments on my telepathic communications with young (name deleted).  (Higgins) mentioned that it may go through some changes.  My connection to him has certainly changed in the last month or two and is now more difficult to make.  I think I understand why this is, but I’d love some clarity on this if you get a chance to ask Higgins sometime.

Note to readers:     This question revolves around the questioner’s telepathic communications with a young fellow with a diagnoses in the autistic spectrum.

Higgins also asks for this quote from Abraham-Hicks:     The basis of life is absolute freedom. The objective of life is absolute joy. The result of life is absolute growth.

Higgins:     Humans, the Soul part of you, choose the Earth life experience for the thrill of the ride knowing that the ride, whatever happens, will result in growth (soul expansion). The particulars of the birth environment and the condition of the body at birth are chosen, not accidental. The conditions of the home environment are chosen to provide a suitable launching pad. The launch pad is chosen for its unique ability to act as a catalyst for growth in the desired area.

(Higgins asks for a description of the game Pin the Tail on the Donkey. I pulled this from Wikipedia on November 29, 2014. “A picture of a donkey with a missing tail is tacked to a wall within easy reach of children. One at a time, each child is blindfolded and handed a paper “tail” with a push pin or thumbtack poked through it. The blindfolded child is then spun around until he or she is disoriented. The child gropes around and tries to pin the tail on the donkey. The player who pins their tail closest to the target, the donkey’s rear, wins. The game, a group activity, is generally not competitive; “winning” is only of marginal importance.”)

The idea of life, in a general sort of way, is like the game, Pin the Tail on the Donkey. Each of you plans a life in which you can explore and expand some facet of being-ness. (This is the ‘tail’.) Each of you has clear emotions that will guide you towards success in the desired area. (The ‘donkey’.) The happy exploration of which will bring joy. (‘Winning.’)

Then each of you is shaken up a little in the early years, just enough to cause a slight disorientation, and you are released to try to ‘pin the tail on the donkey’.

You are each free to follow the call of your heart…or not. The better able you are to follow the call of the heart the happier you will be but there are no winners or losers. From the eternal Soul perspective the desired growth occurs whether or not you achieve happiness in the Earth realm. (You got to play and that is all that matters to the Soul.)

OK….now to answer your question…

Your young friend chose this life for his personal Soul growth. You, from a young age, have been remarkably aware of this condition, a clear signal that you chose this area to pursue for your personal growth. The two of you have come together for the purpose of co-creating and of course this was prearranged between you.

Life happens and these events provide opportunity for static in the line of communication between you and your eternal guidance. If, during these moments when ‘life happens’ you can remain mentally relaxed it is likely the lines will remain open and you will sail easily through any turbulence. Your young friend was born with static in his line of communication. Imagine the level of difficulty he has chosen for this life!

When you experience difficulty in connecting to him it is likely that some life event has occurred that his conscious self couldn’t process very well and has subsequently pried a greater gap into his communication system. This would present as greater difficulty in his daily life. When his conscious daily life is very difficult, that part of him that communicates with you is too busy dealing with him to communicate with you. A second sort blockage also occurs when his conscious self becomes, on some level, aware of you and perhaps jealous or afraid of the conversations his eternal self carries with you. He may, from time to time, insist on a sort of ‘allegiance’ from his eternal self. Because the human form is dominant here on Earth the eternal self would comply.

Our suggestion to you is to discuss with his eternal self whether the two of you have completed your agreement. If not, ask how you may proceed.

It is our understanding that this communication occurs/occurred to inspire you towards greater understanding in the area of autism and that you would then find ways to share your broader, deeper understanding. Your insights might then open doors of possibility for the incorporation of all people with mental health issues into mainstream life. Let’s rephrase that…eventually there will be no ‘mainstream’…the incorporation of all people into the ocean of life.

We are quite certain that you will experience many of these ups and downs with him. However, as it is part of his Soul’s Purpose his eternal self will figure out how to communicate with you. Keep trying. Make the sessions relatively short and at quiet times of day. Night is OK, too, but remember that the soul travels at night and you may from time to time catch him while he’s ‘out’.

The Kindness Paradigm has been developed to provide common understanding among all people and all peoples so that we may move forward towards a clear goal, that goal being that every individual flourishes.

A friend of mine once said, “It’s easy to criticize and hard to help.” Just the same, be supportive rather than critical.

We must help one another feel safe and secure both mentally and physically so that we as individuals may feel free to follow our heart’s desire. We must do this simply because it is following the call of the heart that brings happiness and a sense of fulfillment to each.

By following the call of the heart–first the individual thrives, then the community thrives, then nations thrive. When nations thrive the world thrives.

Discovering One’s Spiritual Gift

Question:    How does a person discover their spiritual gift?

Higgins:     A person discovers their gift by noticing sparks of interest within themselves, then pursuing the ideas in such a way as to fan the sparks into flame.

Do you look at works of art and think to yourself, “I could do that?” If so, then you can. But remember that developing your gift requires time and practice.

If you do not feel sparks, another way to uncover your talent lies in what you think about. Do you feel concerned about social injustices?  What do you worry about? Follow up on these hints by finding and implementing solutions.

In short: Where you see your own desire, therein lies your gift. Where you see need, within the solution lies your gift.
