"SUFFERING
"ALTHOUGH SUFFERING MAY seem ungodly or perhaps even
a lower vibrating experience, it actually has a very specific purpose. Suffering brings us much closer to Source and also creates compassion. When we are suffering, we are much more open and allowing, and when we are open, willing, and allowing, Source energy can then fill us to a much greater degree.
When we are suffering, we are much more "out of the way." But most importantly, we let go and are willing to allow something New and different to arrive for us. At times we can get desperate when we are suffering, and this is when we let go. Much else in our surrounding reality can seem inconsequential, and this is what creates the letting go and giving up. When we are suffering, we realize that we cannot solve whatever is ailing us, ourselves. These are the things that bring us back to Source. These are the things that get us out of the way. These are the things that cause us to surrender.
And when we have suffered ourselves, we develop great compassion for others. After we have gone through an experience of suffering, we then seem much more ready and in alignment to assist others, or perhaps become involved in some kind of humanitarian work.
When we suffer, we go deep. We feel deeply. We examine
deeply. And we ask for help. When we ask for help and really mean it, we usually receive it. But we have to get out of the way first and let go of our ego or in-charge self. This is all a vital
part of the ascension process. Suffering is another way that we connect more deeply and strongly to Source. After we have connected through suffering, we can then remember what this connection feels like and utilize it again, only in a non-suffering situation. We remember that Source was very present and we can then summon Source again to help others.
Viewing suffering from the higher realms, it looks very different. In the higher realms, it is known that life comes and goes and that energy infuses here and then it infuses there. When looking back at a suffering experience after one has left their physical body, one does not feel that this experience was any big deal. This is the way it is. It is known that this is a part of being
in the physical world. Emotions are very valued, as they are one of the things that being in form is all about. Suffering is simply another experience and no big deal. But we sure think it is when we are the ones who are suffering!
Suffering and compassion are basically partners. And
compassion is a very high vibrating state of emotion. Being that suffering creates a vibrational change in a person and also creates an opening to Source, as well as at times a summoning for the New, we can then see that watching suffering in another is not something we need to meddle in or become involved in alleviating. This is not always a set rule, of course. The nonphysical beings watch us suffer continually and never meddle. And this is why. They are simply honoring our process. And as we are becoming the human angels of the earth, we will need to adopt this higher way of being as well. I can tell you from experience, it's not easy...but it is part of our evolutionary process. Therefore, it is important that we understand and value suffering for what it is and what it produces.
If you have chosen this page, you are being asked to understand the higher role of suffering. When you are able to embrace the process that suffering creates, you will be well on your way to becoming a higher vibrating human."
