Soul over body. Mind over matter. God over illusion. And I will triumph, because that’s my destiny

My soul defines my body and mind. My circumstances do not define my soul.

It’s when my soul meets reality, and in proportion to the amount of information I have in my mind which validates the power of my soul, which defines if reality has ascendence over me, or me over it.

So, if I am not defining my mind and the way I perecieve things, from what feels right to me. But define what my soul should endure for worldly gains, then I am draining my soul and cutting off from God. In fact, I am using up my batteries rather than charging them, and that is when I get depleted.

When I am in alignment with God, when I am in alignment with my soul, that abundance starts to flow into my life in unstoppable ways. That I become a source of ideas and life.

But only when I am connected in the right way, not when I am on the wrong road for the wrong reasons.

My name is Cherokee, welcome to my blog.

You are of Heaven or you are of Hell; the choice is yours.

We craft who we are, and how we experience life. So when we reach moments where we reach a cross roads, we sometimes believe that we must choose hell over heaven, beacuse ‘it makes sense’ to our immediate circumstance.

But then the compounded effect of that compounded circumstance, creates outcomes we don’t want. And bit by bit, the quality of our life gets worse, and we tense up, and begin to live in fear.

Here’s the thing though, our most sacred mission is to apply our focus to getting unstuck where we feel stuck. The original condition or worship, is a ‘ state or condition of worth ‘. When you embrace worship, then, your aim is to embrace your real worth : the divine perfection that resides within you. With a path, we are no longer afraid or worried.

So, know that nothing is written in stone, and change is possible. Even if its intense, unwithering, and recurring; change is possible. If we believe so.

If you seek you shall find the answers It will be alright. You have to function from a place of optimism.

We have two choices, to pick heaven or to pick hell. And this is often reflected in our moments of frustration. People either say “For Christ’s sake” or “For Fuck’s sake”. The language we use is defining of the choices and intentions we use.

So, you might wonder, what is the purpose of Hell?

The purpose of Hell is to purify ourselves for what seems like an “eternity” in limbo. The point is to transmute our struggles into lessons to teach to people. Think about the purpose of fire under a pan full of water. The hell is the fire, the transmutation is the boiling of the water, and the struggles is the cold water, and the the end product of that transmutation is hot water for tea, for a bath, for boiling an egg, or whatever…

It seems like an eternity in “numb” limbo beacuse that is the consequence of not wanting to feel fully or listen to our higher self.

When our body says “this is boring”, or “I’m tired” and we push through boundaries, it seems hell is the price we pay for the disrespecting of our natural healthy preservation limitations.

And this is why some people get rich, but then cannot be happy. They didn’t listen to their natural higher wisdom and pushed through despite their knowing… out of fear.

Hell is the compounding effect of what doesn’t fulfil us from a place of fear or lack. It’s chosing Matter over mind. Things over Feelings.

The purpose of Heaven though is rather different.

The path to heave, is all heaven. Because, for one, there is no pushing or forcing, action is taken from a place of harmony and peace; knowing full well, that the outcome that we are working towards will come to be.

Each step comes from a place of fulfilment and higher knowing, and this ensures continual enjoyment during our journey.

“The quieter you become, the more you’re able to hear.” – Kali Wallpaper.

Taking action from a grounded place of peace, beacuse we enjoy what we do, creates a form of healthy sustainability, which we can easily endure over time – it isn’t much of an effort.

So, if we compound the heavely path over time, we will begin to nurture, then generate renewal of ourselves while being guided by heavenly presense and protected for our Good effort.

As Oprah said, and requoted from the bible, we serve from a place of fullness. We fill ourselves up so that we can serve others with the overflow. We cannot serve from an empty cup. Your self comes first.

Only what fulfils us in a peaceful way can sustain us over the long run. If you try filling yourself up with detrimental reference, you will self-destruct at some point, because the alchmey of wrong references cannot be accumulated without creating nefarious “chemical reactions”. Think of heaven as compounds which work well, while hell as compounds with potential to create explosive reactions like oxygen and fuel in a motor. If we don’t have a balance between states of peace and states of ‘reactions’ we are dominated by a reactionary life.

So, it’s imporant to compound (in the sense of accumulation), joyful substances with consciousness. Which is the complete opposite of the Hustle culture, which is to Force through everything even though its empty!

We cannot serve from an empty cup.

Abundance or Lack?

Doing things from a place of fear or lack, will always create a mirror effect of that sentiment or intention somewhere in our lives / environment.

Doing things from a place of trust and faith, will always create a mirror effect of that sentiment or intention somewhere in our lives.

“For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.” – Mathew 25:29.

So making decisions and commmitiing to “doing things” because they make money is a certain way to enter a hell of your own.

Doing things because you like them, and you enjoy them, will create and purify you in the right way. Because the things you do provide a healthy sense of self reference (our bag of references with which we view the world).

And its with our compounded quality of self references that we percieve ourselves and our lives and those around us.

The choice is to pick the feeling, the emotion we want to grow, the enjoyment, the excitement.

NOT to pick because of the things we want, because chosing the things over the quailty of emotion equates to matter over mind, which is Hell over Heaven. Hell is picking things for what we can get. And we only want something from a place of Lack.

Heaven is picking what gives us energy in a worthy way. Heaven is the compounding of what we enjoy over time.

Redefining matters of importance

When we were younger – yes you too, I know this is a matter that applies for every single one of us – we spent a good deal of time in school. Wonderful matter! We got to learn subjects… ok yada yada yada school… I won’t bore you with an overhyped setup, you want the subject…

Well, as I was saying, in school, we learned how to conform to an authority who’d define what we needed to do. When they said jump, we jumped, just like our parents. When a police man says jump, we jump, because we’ve been well trained to agree with authority.

Except, when there are divergent people like me who question everything and disagree when things don’t make sense. That frustrates the heck out of authorities… It also makes it damn near impossible to agree blindly with any form of authority, matters must be questioned. Cracks must be found, loop holes must be discovered…

This is all nice, but when we reach a point when we need to do what a coach or someone who’s actually trying to help us – but isn’t – steps in and defines certain ways of doing things. Sadly it doesn’t work. We’re left with stupid timelines, and ways that don’t fit in with our unique autodidactic way of functioning.

The autodidactic personality is not a stupid person by any means, its simply that they need to come to their own conclusion of how what they’re learning fits in with their current perspective and concept of life – pretty much like all of us – as they tend to have singular ways of seeing things. If you try to fit a square into a round hole it won’t.

So, we have to redefine reality, or at least we have to decide to go at the beat of our own drum and do what works best for us. Running a bit faster to fit in with a pack we don’t always agree with isn’t necessarily best. Why? Because, even if we think that we’re upping our ability, we’re dependant on an extrinsic source of motivation and the only source of real drive should be the intrinsic motor as its where we get our energy from in the first place.

Here’s the thing though, when we have someone above us, who is in a better place, and we aspire to be like them, the next logical step is to model them, which means that we strive to become like them. But if we’re modelling someone who doesn’t respect themselves, only their material gains, we’ll quickly feel the brunt of it. So, piano piano… take modelling with a pinch of salt, for what applies and works for you, put aside what doesn’t, perhaps revisit it later, but someone else’s modus operandi is intimate to them. It doesn’t mean it fits well with us.

Instead, see where you are on your journey and see where you are going. And see who says, and what they say and do, and observe to see if it fits well with ‘who you currently are’ in proportion to where you want to go and become.

I often find it tempting to simply model cell for cell the entity I’m enticed by, wanting to become a mirror – or at least finding it enjoyable to see someone who is a mirror of what I currently am… This is an amazing thing, because it means that we pick up on the every perspective we have, and kind of like a chameleon we adapt to what we see, and become part of the group we’re in, for better or for worse.

Making a quick list of what we don’t want to focus on.

Making a quick List of what we don’t want to do.

Making a quick List of what we want to do.

Making a quick List of what we want to focus on.

All of this in proportion to the direction we’re striving to go in.

Everything is a matter of proportion. What is important to us? What is no longer important?
Is pleasing authority the right move? Is becoming the authority on yourself important?

Choose carefully.

Don’t aim to do things for others for their recognition

Don’t do things for others to get their recognition. Aim instead to focus on doing things because they serve a utilitarian purpose and do that excellently.

Spend your time focussing instead, on being as effective as possible, in creating and solving their pain points so that you can help as many people as possible. Once you have started your journey to produce the best solution possible.

You must spend your time focussing on implementing multiple iterations to continually improve the solution and its applied form over time through trial and error.

The point is to become the best by going deep into that Area, and then once that has been achieved, to go deeper and find areas which surround that one area, which will support and improve the core solution offer.
