Raising Your Energy Level
by Wayne Dyer
 

Every thought you have has an energy that will either strengthen or weaken you. It’s obviously a good idea to eliminate the thoughts that weaken you, since these thoughts are obstacles to creating a winning match with the universal, supreme Source of intention. Take a moment to ponder the meaning behind Anthony de Mello’s observation in One Minute Wisdom: “Why is everyone here so happy except me? ‘Because they have learned to see goodness and beauty everywhere,’ said the Master. Why don’t I see goodness and beauty everywhere? ‘Because you cannot see outside of you what you fail to see inside.”

What you may fail to see inside is a result of how you choose to process everything and everyone in your world. You project onto the world what you see inside and you fail to project into the world what you fail to see inside. If you knew that you were an expression of the universal Spirit of intention, that’s what you’d see. You’d raise your energy level beyond any possibility of encumbrances to your connection to the power of intention. It is only discord acting within your own feelings that will ever deprive you of every good thing that life holds for you. If you understand this simple observation, you’ll curb interferences to intention.

There’s a vibratory action to your thoughts, your feelings and your body. I’m asking you to increase those frequencies so they’re high enough to allow you to connect to the power of intention. This may sound like an oversimplification, but I hope you’ll try raising your energy level as a way to remove the obstacles that prevent you from experiencing the perfection you’re a part of. You cannot remedy anything by condemning it. You only add to the destructive energy that’s already permeating the atmosphere of your life. When you react to the lower energies you encounter with your own low energies, you’re actually setting up a situation that attracts more of that lower energy. For example, if someone behaves in a hateful manner toward you and you respond by hating them for hating you, you’re participating in a lower energy field and impacting all who enter that field. If you’re angry at those around you for being angry people, you’re attempting to remedy that situation through condemnation.

Don’t use weakening energies employed by those around you. Other people can’t bring you down if you’re operating at the higher energies. Why? Because higher and faster energies nullify and convert lower/slower energies, not the reverse. If you feel that the lower energies of those around you are bringing you down, it’s because you’re joining them at their energy levels.

Your unbending intention may be to be slim and healthy. You know that the universal all-creative Spirit brought you into existence in the microscopic dot of human cellular tissue not to be sickly, overweight or unattractive... but to create love, be kind and express beauty. This is what the power of intention intended for you to become. Now get this: You cannot attract attractiveness into your life by hating anything about what you’ve allowed yourself to become. Why? Because hatred creates a counter-force of hatred that disempowers your efforts. Here is how Dr. Hawkins describes it in Power vs. Force: “Simple kindness to one’s self and all that lives is the most powerful transformational force of all. It produces no backlash, has no downside and never leads to loss or despair. It increases one’s own true power without exacting any toll. But to reach maximum power such kindness can permit no exceptions, nor can it be practiced with the expectation of some selfish reward. And its effect is as far reaching as it is subtle.” (Note that kindness is one of the seven faces of intention.) He adds further: That which is injurious loses its capacity to harm when it is brought into the light and we attract to us that which we emanate.

The lesson is clear in terms of removing lower energy obstacles. We must raise ourselves to the levels of energy where we are the light we seek, where we are the happiness we desire, where we are the love we feel is missing, where we are the unlimited abundance we crave. By being it, we attract it to us. By condemning its absence, we ensure that condemnation and discord will continue to flow into our lives.

If you’re experiencing scarcity, anguish, depression an absence of love or any inability to attract what you desire, seriously look at how you’ve been attracting these circumstances into your life. Low energy is an attractor pattern. It shows up because you’ve sent for it, even if on a subconscious level. It’s still yours and you own it. However, if you practice deliberately raising your energy level by being cognizant of your immediate environment, you’ll move rather rapidly toward intention and remove all of those self-imposed roadblocks. The obstacles are in the low-energy spectrum.
