🅲🅾🅼🅿🅰🆁🅸🆂🅾🅽 🅰🅽🅳 🅲🅾🅼🅿🅴🆃🅸🆃🅸🅾🅽 [2] There is always enough of whatever you "need" in this moment 📌📍💯 It's noteworthy that the first four letters of the word scarcity are also the first four letters of the word scare, because fear is exactly what the idea of scarcity provokes. Fearing that there isn't enough of whatever they want, people view others in the "Dream of the Planet" — the combination of every single being in the world's Personal Dream, or the world we live in, as competitors for a limited number of resources, be that love, happiness, money, etc., and they act accordingly. As we have learned, any action that is motivated by fear cannot also be motivated by unconditional love, and it ultimately leads to suffering in one form or another. When you accept the concept of scarcity without question, the result is that you believe someone else may get something that you need instead. This is a very difficult place from which to engage others in the Dream of the Planet, as doing so turns them into opponents rather than friends. In the Toltec tradition, we understand that the idea of scarcity, as it is most often promulgated in the Dream of the Planet, is a myth. From an early age, you are domesticated into the false belief that scarcity exists, but the truth is, there is always enough of whatever you need in this moment. When you believe the myth of scarcity, the result is that you feel afraid, you see others as competition, and in this way you get lost in the fog again. Note that I did not say there would always be enough of whatever you "want" in the moment, but rather what you need. That is a big difference. You may have many wants or preferences in the world that don't arrive when you'd like them to, but a Master of Self knows that life will always provide exactly what is needed in the moment. This is not just a theory; you can actually prove it to yourself right now. Take a moment to think about your past and identify a couple of meaningful situations where at the time you did not get what you thought you wanted. #juveh #sammyjuveh #thetoltecsecret #tgetoltecs #themasteryofself #books #review https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg-G70lIaER/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🅲🅾🅼🅿🅰🆁🅸🆂🅾🅽 🅰🅽🅳 🅲🅾🅼🅿🅴🆃🅸🆃🅸🅾🅽 [1] Other people are not your competitors📌 There is a big difference between setting a goal that involves only you (say, running five miles) versus a goal that involves other people (winning a soccer game). In the latter, you will have an opponent who stands in the way of you achieving your goal. This is a competition, and the question becomes, how will you view your opponent throughout the process? Will you love your opponent unconditionally? Can you view your opponent as another manifestation of the Authentic Self? Or will you demonize them, see them as an enemy who must be defeated at all costs? How will you act toward your opponent if you lose? These questions are important because in our society, life is often portrayed as a competition. If you look around, a prolific message that is communicated via movies, TV, books, and especially advertising in all its forms is that all of the things you want in life are in “limited supply,” be that love, happiness, friendship, a job or career, beauty, money, or material possessions, and because of this limited supply you had better do everything in your power to acquire yours before someone else does. This idea, often referred to in economic terms as “scarcity,” creates a not so subtle atmosphere of comparison and competition between you and many of the people you know. This idea of scarcity, and the subsequent competitive mindset, is so prevalent that it's difficult to spot in all its forms. For instance, when you first meet someone, notice if you start to compare yourself to him or her based on the things that are important to you as an individual. Do you assess the other person's physical appearance in comparison to you? Do you estimate their material wealth, education level, or social standing in comparison to yours? Or perhaps you question whether the person is “more spiritual” than you are. The modes of comparison differ depending on what's important to you, but the act of comparing almost always leads to competition, even if the competition only resides in your mind. #juveh #sammyjuveh #themasteryofself #thetoltecsecret https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg-F_IEoYyz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
