I am Saint Germain, keeper of the violet flame.
We, who witness you from the higher realms, often do marvel at your resilience. You have an ability to endure quite a bit there on planet Earth, and there is a great deal of respect for souls who have agreed to incarnate there because of the amount of pain you can endure. And I am talking about physical and emotional pain. You are not only supposed to grow through painful experiences, however, and in fact, many of you know that you can grow spiritually by coming together with another in a very pleasurable way.
The best way to use pain is to see it as an opportunity to grow, to expand, to heal, and to forgive, but you do not need to create more painful experiences in your lives in order to grow. And some of you have been exploring that belief to a great extent. It is time to let that one go. You do not need to create horrible conditions to get you to hit rock bottom so that you can rise up and rebirth yourselves anew. You can continue on an upward spiral by pursuing joy, by cultivating love and peace within you, and by following your bliss from moment to moment to moment.
Now, if there is something that you need to experience that will be painful, I promise you that you will encounter that experience in the pursuit of that which lights you up the most. You don’t have to go looking for darkness, pain, heaviness, and suffering so that you can purge it all out of yourselves either. You don’t have to agree to take on all of your ancestral karma. You don’t have to feel everything that the collective of humanity is co-creating for itself. You can tend to your own gardens, and deal with what is right in front of you, and know that you are affecting all of creation in a positive way by facing your own fears and your own challenges.
In other words, you don’t have to be a superhero for the rest of humanity. You don’t have to be a savior, and you are not more of a saint if you suffer more than everyone else. These are old-fashioned ideas, and they get perpetuated oftentimes in your stories. In your stories, it is often up to one person to save the entire world or the entire universe, and it does make an excellent story and an excellent movie to see one person taking on such a huge load, but it’s not what you want in your life experience.
You want ease, you want comfort, you want joy, you want pleasure, and you are welcome to all of those things without seeing yourself as a hedonistic narcissist. You can pursue all that fills you up and still be of service to others, and you can have a comfortable home, a car that runs well, and a decent padding in your bank account as well. If you believe that these things are possible, then you can make them your reality. If you don’t, then you are likely to live a self-fulfilling prophecy out, and we know that you do that sometimes.
All of us who are in the higher realms are taking notes, and we are noticing what it is that you believe heavily in. It’s time to swap out those old and worn-out beliefs so that you can live a life of joy, freedom, creativity, love, peace, and abundance. Because you are Source Energy beings, and those states of being are your birthright, regardless of what any spiritual teaching or teacher says.
