LANCING THE LIES
It seems to me that the lies which are so obvious and so prevalent are like pustules on the face and body of the collective we call America, and it’s time to decide the best way to drain this pandemic of lies.
Perhaps the real question is not why someone chooses to tell a lie. Perhaps the real question is why another chooses to believe, cling to, perpetuate, and act on the lie, even in the face of fact. I think this is a central question when one considers that, for the most part, people create and live their lives based on what they choose to believe.
If, from political, religious, familial, educational, or career expediency, one chooses to let the lie pass, remember that to acquiesce to a lie, even silently, implies that the lie is true.
Silence in the face of a lie feeds and supports the lie.
The subconscious does not recognize the existence of someone other than itself! Thus, every word spoken or thought is heard as an instruction to create a belief pattern or structure. It is through these subconscious belief patterns or structures that our Life Force flows and creates for us the events we then experience.
I really like Harry Palmer’s statement that our experience proves our beliefs.
When one has chosen to remain silent when confronted by a lie, they have abandoned their own moral compass. They have stepped out of their personal integrity. They have silently discounted or suppressed their own subconscious recognition of right and wrong and have helped create and sustain the lie, which now must be lived with.
While it is not important that we are offended or reactive to a lie, it IS important to recognize and call out – give name to – the lie. When one calls out a lie, it is important to remember that there is no need to defend, explain or try to teach what the fact is. Those who cling to a lie will not be moved from it, nor change their mind. So why go to the bother of calling out a lie? One calls out a lie to lessen the energy that surrounds it, and to reinforce one’s own moral compass and integrity, not to change the mind of another.
The “action” of calling out a lie is best done from a place of discernment, remembering that actions taken as a result of judgment feed the very thing that has been reacted to.
From my perspective, the only action to take in the face of a lie is to simply say “that is a lie.” Personally, I then add a blessing or the prayer from the cord cutting ceremony: “With my love, I release you to follow your own path as I am now free to follow mine.”
Blessings,
