Your Throat Portal of
Power
(from Sacred Steps - a complete system for spiritual acceleration
Click on the LEFT sidebar to order)
The window
to the true Disciple’s role lies within and around the throat. This is the Portal of listening, expressing,
and leadership. From this Portal comes
the ability to share the innovative teachings of eternal truth. Great power can be channeled through this
window. However, a Soul must progress
sufficiently in desire and understanding. Trying to utilize this Portal
unprepared will cause “burn out”. Yes, it is possible to use the power flowing
through a Portal without having fully been prepared for its secrets. Nevertheless, when one attempts to channel
the power radiating through this window onto the international level of service
possible, his motives must be aligned correctly and his body, the vehicle of
expression strong enough for the task.
At its lowest level of use the Throat Portal can offer world renowned
oratory, books and art. At the highest
level the world’s great spiritual teachings are created.
The Sacred Word - Communication
Through this
fifth window to the Soul flows forth the power and inspiration to be a
leader. Leadership includes more than
instruction for others. Leadership is
the ability to listen and then to guide; to be willing to help then offer
appropriate assistance. Leadership is a
natural power that can only occur when others feel true respect for you and
your judgment. To reach out and
experience a sense of oneness with another, to understand what he wishes to
share with you, and to clearly and appropriately share with him: This is communication. Only a person willing to open to another with
a sincere interest in another’s life can offer true communication. Only a person willing to keep no secrets, but
to be open with his heart’s desires can truly share. Communication includes the willingness to
listen without the need to add to or subtract from another’s ideas. Appropriate communication includes the
willingness to offer one’s own thoughts clearly and gently.
The Sacred Color of Service - Radiant Bright Blue
Being of
service to others brings no loss at all, but instead rewards you with
fulfillment. The color of bright blue
represents the greatest gift you can give to another, yourself. Clear blue enfolds both you and another in a womb of
gentle and flowing communication. Clear
blue protects, comforts and connects you and your world, one with the other. To serve is your only true profession. Service is the way to help others, and by
helping others you are helping yourself for you find real satisfaction. True service, however, means that you are
truly of help. Too often help is seen as
correcting the mistakes of others. This
only hinders another’s progress. Real help is supporting another’s spiritual journey by
demonstrating your own progress. Start
to shine your own bright blue light of helpfulness now.
Through this Portal the following issues
can be discovered and then healed.
Listening Truly
The
three relationship Portals of Power are the Solar Plexus, the Heart and the
Throat. By opening all three so that
they work in unison, real communication can occur. As you have learned, opening your Solar
Plexus Portal allows you to see situations as an integrated whole. As you open
your Heart Portal greater
perspective gives you the courage to
allow your walls and barriers to drop and forgiveness of yourself and others
naturally follows.
Now,
as you practice to open your Throat Portal of Power you will be able to build
on this broadened perspective and forgiving heart to guide your ability to
truly hear. The deepest need, hidden by
emotional duress will now be heard by you.
The most hesitant offer of help and assistance will also now be heard. The first evokes the response of compassion,
the second gratitude.
Appropriate Responses
No
matter what anyone says or does there are only two possible messages underlying
what is being offered. Either one is
extending love and support in the only way one knows how, or one is calling
desperately for help and support in the only way one knows how.
Each
of these messages when heard clearly for what it
is will elicit from you the only appropriate response - your own
message of love, support and gratitude.
Here, clear and honest communication finally occurs and with it will
come the specific inspiration for what to say and what to do.
As you work on all three of these Portals of
Power you will discover an acceleration of opportunities to use your growing
understanding, forgiveness and communication skills. Be proud of what you are accomplishing and
know that the Power of the Universe
needs you for the healing of the world.
General Exercise and Journal Work
Suggested Exercise to practice consistently
so that it becomes a habit and second nature
1. What is your personal goal for the Portal of
Power?
2. There are only two
messages that any individual is sending forth:
A - Help - The
person is extending help in the only way he/she know how
B - Fear - The person is calling for help in the only
way he/she knows how
Keep track of any
challenging conversations and interactions you have with anyone over the next
seven weeks. List each one and make note
of the messages coming from you and others.
