Had enough bad news? Open Your Conscience for a Shift

17. February 2012 by HealingMindN.

Do you ever just wish you could turn off all the “bad” news for a while and relax into something that lifts your spirits and eases your mind?

Thomas Hobbes once wrote: “A mans conscience and his judgement is the same thing, and as the judgement, so also the conscience, may be erroneous.” {Leviathan, part 2, chap. 29}

How can a person’s conscience become erroneous? What if that person was constantly deluged every day with bad news? How would that person feel? That person gains beliefs based in fear. Do you agree?

If that person has beliefs based in fear, then that person’s conscience and judgments will also be based in fear. Do you live in fear from all the bad news? Of course, a person with beliefs based in fear may call himself a “realist” whereas this person may call another person with beliefs based in love an “idealist.”

Truth be told, the person on one hand who lives by beliefs based in fear and the person on the other hand who lives by beliefs based in love are both realists and idealists; they both live by their own realities. They both idealize the world according to their beliefs. The difference maker is: The creation of the entire universe is based in love. People with beliefs based in love may be very few on this planet, but are still part of the 99.999999999% of the consciousness in this universe. Why not go with the majority?

Which reality do you prefer? A world based in compassion and hope? Or a world based in darkness and despair? When you finally choose a world based in love, Spiritual Cinema Circle can help keep your world alive.

These days it can feel nearly impossible to maintain a compassionate attitude and a sense of hope in the midst of the struggles and challenges we face. Yet, as spiritually minded people, we know how important it is to feel good on the inside if we want to create good on the outside.

If you’re like me, you may already engage in positive practices - prayer, meditation, exercise, healthy foods, gratitude, inspirational reading. They all help, but wouldn’t it be great if you could give yourself a little “good vibration re-boot” by simply settling into your favorite chair, gathering loved ones around and pressing “Play”?
