How Your Energies Impact Others
by Wayne Dyer
When you feel connected
and in harmony with intention, you sense a major difference in how other
people react to you. Be cognizant of these reactions, because they’ll
bear directly on your abilities to fulfill your individual intentions.
The more closely you automatically resonate to the frequencies of the
universal all-creating Source, the more that others will be impacted and
their lower energies nullified. They’ll gravitate toward you, bringing
peace, joy, love, beauty and abundance into your life. What follows is
my opinion on how you’ll impact others when you’re resonating with
intention and how different your impact is when you’re dominated by your
ego’s separatist attitude.
Here are some of the most
significant ways in which you’ll impact others:
Your presence instills
calmness. When you coincide with intention, your impact on others
has a calming influence. People tend to feel more at peace, less
threatened and more at ease. The power of intention is the power of love
and receptivity. It asks nothing of anyone, it judges no one and it
encourages others to be free to be themselves. As people feel calmer in
your presence, they’re inclined to feel safe, by virtue of the energy
frequencies that you radiate. Their feelings are encouraged by your
energy of love and receptivity, causing them to want to reach out and be
with you. As Walt Whitman put it: “We convince by our presence.”
If, instead, you bring the
lower calibrations of judgment, hostility, anger, hatred or depression
to your interactions, you attract that level of energy if it’s lurking
in the people you’re interacting with. This acts like a counterforce to
those same energies if they’re present in others. The impact intensifies
the lower frequencies at that level and creates a field in which demands
are placed as a result of feelings of inferiority or opposition.
Intention doesn’t interact
against anything. It’s like gravity, which doesn’t move against
anything, nor does gravity itself move. Think of impacting others like
gravity, with no need to move against or attack anyone. People who feel
empowered by your presence become kindred spirits. That can only happen
if they feel safe rather than attacked, secure rather than judged, calm
rather than harassed.
Your presence leaves
others feeling energized. I recall leaving a two-hour session with a
spiritual master and feeling as if I could conquer the world emotionally
and spiritually. The saint was Mother Meera, who’d held my head in her
hands and gazed into my eyes with her egoless divinity. I felt so
energized that I didn’t sleep that entire night. I wanted more of what
this joyous being had shown me through her presence alone.
When you bring the
frequencies of intention into the presence of others, they’ll feel
energized just by being in your immediate circle. You don’t have to say
a word. You don’t have to act in any prescribed fashion. Your energy of
intention alone will make others in your field feel as if they’ve
mysteriously been empowered. As you begin consciously expressing the
seven faces of intention, you’ll discover that others begin to comment
on the impact you’re making on them. They’ll want to assist you in
fulfilling your own dreams. They’ll be energized and volunteer to help
you. They’ll even begin to offer to finance your dreams with their
energized, new ideas. As I’ve grown in my consciousness of the power of
intention, I’ve been told I’ve had an impact without my doing anything
other than spending an evening having a meal in a restaurant. People
tell me they’ve been energized with greater confidence and determination
and inspiration after our time together. I’ve done nothing. They’ve felt
impacted by the field of high energy we shared.
Your presence allows
others to feel better about themselves. Have you ever noticed when
you’re in the presence of certain people that you feel better about
yourself? Their compassionate energy has the noticeably pleasant impact
of simply making you feel really good about yourself. You’ll impact
others with this energy of compassion as you develop your connection to
intention. People will sense that you care about them, understand them
and are interested in them as unique individuals. With this kind of
connection to intention, you’re less likely to focus conversation on
yourself and use others to massage your ego.
On the contrary, being in
the company of someone who’s disdainful or indifferent impacts you quite
differently. If this is the low energy you transmit to others, they’re
quite likely to depart the encounter feeling less than wonderful about
themselves, unless they’re so strongly connected to intention that they
can override the impact of this low energy. These extremely low-energy
thoughts and behaviors are evident if you use every topic that’s brought
up as an excuse to talk about yourself. Any behavior similar to this
displays ego-dominated energy that impacts others unpleasantly.
Moreover, it leaves others feeling as if they’re insignificant or
unimportant and obviously feeling worse about themselves when it’s a
repeated pattern in a significant relationship.
Your presence allows
others to feel unified. The effect of being in the presence of
people expressing high frequencies is to feel unified and connected to
all of nature, all of humankind and to intention. As you raise your
frequencies, your impact on others invites them to be on the same team.
You are unified and want to assist each other in the fulfillment of a
common objective.
The opposite of this
feeling of unity is feeling polarized and cut off. Low energy is
demanding and always moves against others. Therefore, it will inevitably
produce a win/lose condition. The energies of antagonism, judgment,
hatred and the like set up a counterforce in which somebody has to lose.
When you have an enemy, you need to establish a defense system and
having to defend yourself becomes the nature of your relationship. One
person's need to move against and polarize sets in motion the conditions
for war. War is always expensive. This is all avoidable by staying
connected to intention and bringing that higher energy to your
relationships, allowing those you encounter to feel the oneness with
you, with everyone else, with nature and with God.
Next month more on the seven faces of intention and how your energies
impact others.
