Freeing Ourselves From Dualism

Do you believe in dualism? That there are two opposing powers in this world fighting against each other? Such as light vs dark or good vs evil?

After writing about darkworkers, I feel obliged to write about the issue of dualism. Because darkness doesn’t really exist and understanding this is the key to freedom. (Photo credit)

Fighting against darkness is futile

I understand the idea of light vs dark, or God vs Saturn, is thousands of years old in the Christian tradition. Many other religions and cultures have similar concept of dualism.

It is so ingrained in our collective thinking that few people stop and think what darkness really is.

Can you show me darkness? I mean, a substance that causes darkness?

You cannot. Dark is simply the absence of light. You can show me light, but darkness is always a matter of comparison.

So, then, what does it mean to fight against darkness?

It’s a fight against the shadows on the wall. It may look huge and scary, but it’s only a shadow. And naturally, no one — no superman, no super psychic, not even “the one” — can win in this battle. Of course not. It’s just a shadow, an illusion.

Perhaps I am confusing some people. Didn’t I just write about darkworkers? But if you go back and check that article, you notice that my definition of a darkworker, or negative soul, is the soul that is moving away from Light and therefore draining energy from other people. Notice there is nothing about darkness in the definition. And yes, at this time, such souls exist. But darkness doesn’t.

Darkness is something we make up in our mind. It is us who is giving life to the illusion of darkness, just like small kids give life to the shadow on the wall.

It’s time we notice this and wake up.

How to get out of the dualism

It’s actually quite simple. Live in the here and now. Accept everything in the here and now completely with no comparison.

When do you feel the push and pull battle of light and dark, or good and evil? Let’s say you have an important exam tomorrow. You feel you should study tonight — that’s the good, considerate thing to do, right? On the other hand, you are tempted to go to a bar and just goof off. Ah, your lazy, evil twin who gets you in trouble! And what if you start thinking how you can cheat? Now that’s really bad, right?

Do you see it’s your mind playing this game? Your mind (or your ego) can go to a great length in this game. Drawing from your past experiences, your mind casts a grim image of you failing the exam if you don’t prepare for it. It also casts an image of success, which is just as hollow — it’s just expectation, not reality.

The reality is — you are. Period.

Our souls don’t care if something is good or bad. We came to this world to experience. If we don’t like certain experience, that’s just that. Next. If we like certain experience, that’s just that, too. Next. No judgment. They just are.

Seeing life this way may take a bit of getting used to until you get the hang of it. But really, getting out of the dualism is fast and easy. You just see things as they are with no mental chatter.

Reviewing dualities in your life

I encourage you to review what you have thought to be duality. Are they real? Or is one side of duality really non-existent, like darkness?

I think the only true dualities are the technical polarities, like positive and negative charge of electricity or cars moving either direction of the road. In such cases, there is no value judgement. Driving up north or down south are neither better nor worse by itself. While the word “negative” may sound bad, negative charge of electricity is just that — it’s not good or bad. Sometimes, negative is a good thing. When your doctor runs a blood test to see if you are infected with a disease, a negative result is a good news.

Just one more thought on duality

When you examine your idea of duality, you may also notice that some so-called dualities are not opposite but more like pairs.

Men and women are good example of this case. They have different sexual organs, supported by different sexual hormones and genes. In the formation of a new life, they play different roles. However, they are both humans and share a lot of qualities as humans. Men and women are not opposite to each other that forms duality. If they are, when a female manager replaces a male manager, it should cause 180 degree change effects to the organization, for instance. Like putting a battery backwards.

We deal with this kind of fake dualities all the time. Just because two groups of people or two ideas are very different doesn’t mean they are opposite and polarized. Some examples are body and mind, thinking and feeling, rich and poor and meat eaters and vegetarians.

Obviously, there is no reason at all to fight over this kind of non-polarized fake dualities.

Darkworkers

I really wish there are no such thing like darkworkers. I really wish everyone, I mean EVERYONE, is evolving toward Light and I can hug (literally and energetically) everyone wholeheartedly with zero concern of my energetic flow. I dream of such beautiful world.

We are not there yet.

It’s true all souls came from the same one Source, as I described in this article about Light. At some point, however, some souls used their free will to go against (or away from) the Source.

I received some interesting comments to my recent article about Lightworkers and would like to clarify some points further. (Photo Credit)

The degree of light and darkness

So all souls are either evolving toward Light or de-evolving. I call all evolving souls Lightworkers.

Now when you think of a vehicle on the road, the direction it’s moving is critical, but its speed also matters. A Lightworker soul may be moving fast toward Light or they may be so troubled that they are hardly moving. Or anywhere in between.

Likewise, I consider all de-evolving souls to be darkworkers, but there can be a terminology issue here. There are souls that are moving away from the Source big time and there are souls that are slowly going backwards. Some people may choose to call the first kind “darkworker” and not the latter. As long as we are clear about the definition, both views are valid. (I’m a linguist by training — definition is the foundation of any argument.)

So in my definition, darkworker or negative souls don’t always mean someone like Hitler. My spirit guides tell me about 13% of the population is currently going against the natural energy flow, so they are everywhere. Some lightworker souls are more prone to their attention and attack, but I don’t think anyone is free from them.

Which means it’s important to discern energy hackers in our lives.  (And toward the end of this article, you will learn why the tough love approach of detachment helps not only you but the darkworkers themselves.)

The best way to tell a darkworker

The best and only true way to tell if someone is a darkworker or not is to pay attention to your energy flow. Darkworkers don’t receive vital life energy from the Source like Lightworkers do, and so they take the energy from the people around them. (By “around”, I don’t necessarily mean physical proximity. Space doesn’t matter energetically.)

So you would feel drained after talking with them. Again, the degree of drainage depends — some steal big time and some more subtly.

Well, I know this description is vague. You want a clear way to tell a darkworker so you can be sure what you are doing with them, right?

I’ve thought about this a long time, and I really cannot give you a “checklist” you can use to identify a darkworker. You know, the kind of checklist or test that you answer with yes or no, add up the scores, and boom, you know the definitive result!

No, this matter of light / darkworker doesn’t go that way. Because some signs are very subtle and confusing. A troubled lightworker may appear like a darkworker. (Having said this, I can share a few signs to help you . . . in just a moment.)

How the Akashic Records can help

If you are serious about finding the true soul-level identity of someone, please order a Snapshot Reading. Snapshot Reading is the abbreviated reading of my comprehensive Akashic Record Reading that is focused on finding out the soul characteristics of someone, not about clearing the energetic issues for them.

If that someone is going to be a critical part of your life, like if you are considering to marry him or her or going into business with them, I think this is a wise investment.

And please note this is a follow up reading for those who have had the Akashic Record Reading for themselves. I don’t see why anyone would want to dig up someone else’s soul truth before understanding themselves. (Well, negative souls would want to do that . . . but then, I don’t want to help negative souls take advantage of others.)

Signs of a darkworker

If you are the DIY soul, the first and most important thing to do is to pay attention to your energy flow. Don’t be shy to admit you feel drained after spending time with someone.

And then, here are some “signs” that raises a flag. Please keep in mind (I know I’m repeating myself here, but this is important) this is NOT a checklist. A person may exhibit all these signs and may still be a lightworker. I’m sharing these signs to help you be more sensitive to your energy flow, not to make you judgmental to others.

1. He or she present themselves as smaller or bigger than life.
Darkworkers know they cannot present themselves simply as they are. So they present themselves as someone who is (unfairly) victimized and who need help. Or they may present themselves as a great wonderful person to be idolized. (Remember Hitler was an idol for a while?)  Most darkworkers I know seem to think they are the most miserable unlucky person they know OR the most wonderful dedicated soul they know.

In both cases, they explain themselves very well. Whereas lightworkers live their life, darkworkers explain and negotiate their life.

Again, just because someone is in trouble or because someone is very negative in their speech or behavior patterns doesn’t mean they are negative souls. Or just because someone is famous or working on a big project doesn’t mean they are negative souls. So here is another sign, or indication, to guide you . . .

2. He or she is constantly in the waves of dramas.
They always have a good explanation, but the bottom line is darkworkers are almost always in some kind of drama. Positive souls don’t like staying in drama — they would try to help others in need, but sooner or later there comes a point that they step back because they are so drained energetically. Negative souls, on the other hand, quietly thrive on dramas.

If someone seems to be just so wonderful at first glance, but somehow seems to be in drama all the time, don’t hesitate to listen to your gut feeling. “Wow, he won an award for the project he worked? And now he works for that prestigious company. . . But wait, then why is he always short on money? He said he got unlucky and got a traffic ticket. . . Hmm. Wasn’t he talking about another trouble before — like his GF stole from him or something. . . I felt so bad for him. . . I don’t know. I just don’t like his company so much, but is it selfish of me to think this way?”

On the other hand, it’s very hard to distinguish negative souls who present themselves as troubled, victimized souls from lightworker souls who are troubled and victimized. In a sense, they are indeed similar — they are stuck and hardly moving.

One of the subtle differences is that, with darkworker souls,

3. You feel the help you offer gets sucked up in a void.
Darkworkers souls are weird. I really don’t think I understand them well. When they come to my Akashic Record Reading, I do what I can do. They often have extremely uncomfortable energetic issues like ongoing soul shifting, which I can clear. And I hope the clearing helps them to return to Light. (Just to be clear — Hitler type don’t come to my practice.  They would NOT want their soul truth known even if I pay them.)

Well, the clearing is good, but my challenge comes when they ask how they can improve their lives.

So I point out their drama tendency and suggest they start building their lives with their own power, in a small manageable way. And they say something like, “Oh, I know I give too much of myself to others.” I might try again all over saying what it is to build their life with their own power rather than relying on other people’s power, and they go, “Oh, but that’s so hard. Can you help me?”

I give up. I understand they have a right and free will to stay the way they are. As a lightworker, I must respect free will. My responsibility is to read the Akashic Records and clear the energetic issues.

How to deal with darkworkers

Again, the most important thing is to pay attention to your energy flow, or your gut feeling. It may come as a hesitant pause like, “? That just doesn’t make sense.” or “I don’t know why, but I just don’t like this feeling.”

Let me share another example to illustrate the case. Let’s say you are new to meditation. What would you do? You might read some articles or book and try sitting at home. You might join the local meditation circle or class. You might try listening to guided meditation or meditation music. All these are good approaches and I’m sure you choose the one that is best for your learning style.

A negative soul might sign up a 10 day meditation camp.

I’m not saying intensive meditation or such camps are no good. But do you see how out of sync it is for a beginner to sign up such a course? Sure, it’s impressive (think about the time and money investment!), which relates to the “bigger than life” characteristic of a negative soul. And if they didn’t achieve enlightenment in that camp, then they become the victim in the drama. They may say something like, “That meditation camp was a rip off.”

I don’t know what it’s like to be a negative soul because I’ve never been in their shoes. I guess they have a very lopsided self image that pushes them to do this kind of thing.

I feel for that. And I step back.

Yes, this is how lightworkers deal with darkworkers. Step back.  Detach. Don’t try to change them. God gave everyone free will, including the will to go against the Source. Messing up with free will is by itself a dark act.

By stepping back and not offering your energy to them, you are providing them the chance to return to Light. Darkworkers cannot exist without lightworkers offering their energy, knowingly or unknowingly. So it’s more important to raise our awareness than “dealing with” darkworkers. (Needless to say, in the case of crimes, call 911.)

Are You Afraid Of Finding Bad Things In Your Akashic Records?

“I want to have your Akashic Record Reading but I’m afraid of finding something bad. . .” I’ve received several emails in this line, so it’s time to clarify.  (Photo Credit)

It’s a good idea to approach Akashic Record Reading and the higher knowledge it offers with sincerity rather than curiosity. You may feel a bit nervous about it. That’s okay. That said, I don’t consider any reading to be “bad”. Let me explain.

Trauma and energetic issues

In the past life part of my Akashic Record Reading, traumatic events such as murders, rapes, and wars do show up occasionally. Human history is filled with horrible events. For example, I’ve worked with a client who, in their past life, was Jewish who was killed in the Nazi camp. I’ve also worked with a client who was a Nazi member. (Just for clarification — the latter soul is a positive soul. This soul made the mistake of joining the group and staying there. It carried hundreds of curses, among other issues.) Or persecution or witch trial. And sometimes it’s less dramatic — say, a life as a poor manual laborer ending in disease, that was probably related to malnutrition.

I don’t discuss these “bad” experiences to scare off my clients, however. I bring them up because they are related to the energetic issues that are affecting my clients to this day. And all the energetic issues can be taken care of.

For the clearing of such energetic issues, it’s essential the client understand how they started and how they are affecting their current life. Their awareness and intention to clear the issue are what make the clearing effective.

Which is worse for you, having the energetic issues and not knowing what is happening really or finding them out and taking care of them?

Physical exam and Akashic Record Reading

It’s like getting the physical exam. Which is better, not to get the physical and stay ignorant of your condition or to get the physical, learn about your health issues, and take care of them? Now with the physical, there are conditions that are supposed to be incurable. (I say “supposed to be” because, even when the conventional medical doctors say so, I doubt if it is true.) So there is still a good reason to be scared. But with the energetic issues, we have solutions.

But, you may say, isn’t it better to have a clean Akashic Records? Of course. If you already have energetic issues, however, there is no point ignoring them.

So I don’t consider any “bad” events in the Akashic Records to be bad. They are what happened before. I don’t go into too much details, just enough to promote my clients’ understanding.

Negative souls

This may not what the inquirer had in their mind, but another “bad” news in the Akashic Record Reading is when the client is a negative soul.

By negative soul, I don’t mean bad people, however. It means the soul is not evolving toward the life-giving Source. It’s not a judgment call, it’s technical. A negative soul may be obviously negative or manipulative, or they may look like lightworkers, doing good deeds or even spiritual development.

Negative souls usually come to my practice to get rid of the annoying conditions such as ongoing soul shifting or facade devices that hinder them to see themselves as they are. They may not consciously think this is what they want, but I believe every soul that comes my way has a reason.

By clearing these issues, they have a better chance to come back to Light. I cannot force them to come back to Light because that would be a violation of their free will. But I hope my reading serves as a turning point.

I understand it is quite shocking for these clients to hear that they are moving backwards, away from the Light. I’m sorry, I just don’t have any other way to tell you. I cannot brown nose these clients because that would be bending the truth. If I do such thing, I may lose my privilege to enter the Hall of Akashic Records. Moreover, it won’t serve the client truthfully.

For me as a practitioner, the challenge is explaining the situation and how much clearing we can do. If a soul is not evolving toward Light, I just cannot go into their past lives. That is not the option in the Hall of Akashic Records, and it wouldn’t help the client, either.

Think about a car moving the wrong way on the freeway. The first thing that needs to happen is this car turns around. It’s not a time for a tuneup.

With spirituality, the direction is less obvious, and there are quite many souls moving the wrong way, but still, moving the wrong way is moving the wrong way.

I’ve seen a few cases where a negative soul became positive. Light is always available to everyone. So this is not necessarily a “bad” reading, either.

Do you have any questions about Akashic Records? I’ve done hundreds of readings and would be happy to answer your question. Please write in the comment.
