Emotional and Mental Pain and Suffering

The Christian Bible is filled with messages on suffering; suffering is good, for it brings you closer to God. It is not just the Christians that teach suffering. It is also the teachings of all the world’s major religions, including Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, and many minor religions of today, including the New Age.
This is about self-inflicted pain and suffering, self-inflicted from old inherited beliefs and programs. This is not about the grief experienced by the loss of loved ones. That is a very different energy.
We can look back throughout the history of the Old Age religions and how they encouraged pain and suffering to establish fear of not being saved.
Questions to ponder. Why did Buddha, meaning “the awakened one” named Siddhartha Gautama, never write his teachings down? Why did Jesus, Jeshua Joseph bar Joseph never write his teachings down? Why did the Prophet Muhammad never write his teachings down? Why did Abraham, known as the father of Judaism, never write his teachings down? Historians teach the ancient philosopher Socrates never wrote anything down. Why would these men who came to deliver an important message to their culture not write anything, but instead left it to others’ interpretation? Or did they? I know Jonah has been asked the question in Greece about Socrates never writing his teachings. Jonah’s answer, “He did write his teachings, but many of his writings were destroyed after he was executed.” Jonah went on to say some of Socrates’ writings were hidden away and did survive. So it brings up the question for me, how many of these people of whom some have religions named after them are the teachers of those religions?
Those who have studied Jonah’s teachings over the years know about the Elite who control humanity from behind the scenes. What if the major religions from these ancient people had their writings destroyed and replaced by an Elite group of people to keep the human consciousness enslaved in pain and suffering? This is not to say all religious teachings are based on pain and suffering. Some teachings indeed are about love, compassion, and service. Understanding how the Elite work is to know how they mix truth with lies. They present truth and then follow it up with lies creating beliefs, which hold many in emotional and mental slavery.
What if the New Age is about resolving, transcending these deep-seated beliefs that pain and suffering are requirements for life? Yet some New Age teachers use the same teachings of the Old Age, but use different words. The outcome is the same.
When you have thousands of years of pain and suffering encoded in your genetic brain, how does the mind revolve around these teachings? Is a teaching truth because it is 12,000 plus years old? Does a lie become a truth with age? Do ones still accept Old Age belief by changing the words? These are indeed, questions to be examined with critical thinking.
What about the religious belief money is the root of all evil? You can tell yourself, “I do not accept this belief, nor do I live my life to the religious standards of others.” But do you? Do you have ongoing money issues? Is this a form of creating emotional and mental pain from unconscious beliefs, choices about money?
What if you were able to research all of your physical relatives from the last 2000 years? Not just look them up, but see what all of them looked like, what their beliefs, thoughts, desires, and fears were. How many were murdered, or were murderers? How many of them taught their children to deny life to please their gods? What if you took all of these beliefs, fears, and religious dogmas from your physical family of the last 2000 years and changed its name to subconscious beliefs? We are talking about thousands of people and billions upon billions of beliefs. If this is too much to explore, search for the last seven generations to examine these beliefs and choices. But also challenge the wisdom of your ancestors; it also resides in your subconscious mind, which prevails?
Of the thousands of people who have come to me and or Jonah for guidance, the number one issue I see over and over is subconscious and sometimes not so subconscious beliefs in religious dogma intertwined with pain, suffering, and money. Religious beliefs are usually the most powerful beliefs in the conscious and subconscious mind. What I have seen over and over again is how one manipulates their beliefs by changing the words. In the past, one may have been taught and believed Jesus would save me, now some will use the word universe, as in the universe will save me, or the archangels will save me. Some have even believed Jonah will save them.
The universe does indeed provide. It provides the Earth for us to live our physical life. It gives the sun to provide us with energy and light. It gives us great beauty to enjoy, but most importantly, the universe provides us innate intelligence. Innate intelligence is like a manual, an instruction book on the workings of life. As an example, if you buy a barbecue, you can have it shipped to your house. It comes in a box with many pieces, including an instruction manual. It is common sense to read the manual on how to put it together. In using this analogy on how the universe will provide, would you sit in front of the barbecue meditating with the box open surrounded by 30 or 40 pieces and say, “OK, manual put it together?” Of course not, you would read the manual and put the pieces together yourself so you can end up with a fully functional barbecue. You have some impatient people who merely glance at the manual, put the barbecue together, and find there are still parts sitting there on the floor, and wonder why the barbecue is not working correctly. Back to the manual you go. This reminds me of an old saying back in my carpenter days, measure once cut three times, measure three times cut once.
We are in a transitional stage of New Age consciousness with intense influential energy of Old Age consciousness, luring us back into old inherited beliefs, especially regarding pain, suffering, and money.
Indeed, the Old Age beliefs about money, as I mentioned above, being the root of all evil, seem to be buried deep in our mind’s crevices and the programming from genetics in our brain. But even Bible believers can research to find the Bible does not say money is the root of all evil. What it does say is, the love of money is a root of evil. Teachings from the Old Age also teach specific types of love that are evil. You do not have to go far to see this belief in action. Just look at gay marriage. It is not that gay marriage and money are the same, but the Old Age teachings teach certain types of love are evil. We could live in a beautiful age if humanity were to let go of all Old Age religious dogma. It reminds me of the song by John Lennon, Imagine.
It is very easy to fall back into the Old Age’s belief structures, thus allowing its energy to create a perverse reality of pain and suffering. If you are going to study something to assist in your healing, be cautious of hooks. A hook is something that pulls you back to the old, such as the belief that pain and suffering are requirements for growth. Hooks can come in many different words, deeds, or teachings. Such hooks are; follow me, I will protect you, ascension (New Age rapture), savior, escape, or end of the world. Some may experience many familiar belief hooks such as this life is dreadful; I want to hurry up and die to live in the 4th dimension. I am a star child, where the hell are my spaceships? I cannot heal myself, so I must be a failure, or I will not seek medical treatment because that means I failed. These are all Old Age beliefs, many of which are wrapped up in New Age teachings.
What about physical pain? Indeed our physical body is designed to feel physical pain. Is there a difference between physical, emotional, or mental pain and suffering? What if the purpose of physical pain is a warning signal? For example, you start to lift a heavy object, and you feel a slight pain in your back. You have a choice to make, put it down, or continue to lift the object. Continue to lift the object, and all of a sudden, you hear a popping sound, the sound of a rupturing disk in your spine. Now the pain is not a slight pain, but an OMG pain as you lay on the floor hyperventilating as you scream in great pain. That was a choice not to listen to the slight pain, an impulsive choice that you will pay for, for some time to come. That same analogy can be used if you feel a slight pain in your stomach, intestines, liver, heart, lungs, or any other part of your body. A slight pain is a warning, stop what you are doing; search what you need to be doing versus what you are doing. A slight pain is a warning to change your choices. Does this mean OMG pain is inevitable? Does physical pain equate to emotional and mental suffering? Can one’s emotional and mental suffering increase the perception of physical pain? These are all questions I would ask you to search but search with critical thinking, not with New or Old Age dogma.
I am reminded of an older woman who came to Jonah many years ago. Her first question to Jonah,
“Why does God want me to suffer; my entire life has been filled with suffering and pain?”
Jonah reminded her of her choices many years ago to be in a relationship with an abusive man. Her friends and parents warned her not to marry this person. He only expresses anger and bitterness. But he was good looking and had money, of which she did not have. So she chose to marry him. Soon after, she discovered what many had warned. This woman suffered greatly but blamed it on God. She was married to him for over 40 years until he died. She did not leave the relationship because she believed God ordained marriage for life, so she suffered for more than four decades believing in her Old Age religious beliefs that God had wanted her to suffer. She could not accept that it was her choice to marry this person, and it was her choice to remain with this person. She did not want to take responsibility for her choices because her deeply held beliefs from the Old Age religion that God wanted her to suffer, and her suffering would bring her closer to God. Yet, her suffering only brought about bitterness and anger.
Religious indoctrinations are the most challenging beliefs to let go. It fosters the idea if we are good we will be loved, if we are bad we will be condemned. How often do we try to be good to others’ standards, society, whatever that means, for it changes every generation, to be loved? Usually, it takes tough choices to let go of old beliefs so we can love and be loved.
We are making continuous choices throughout our lives, some wise, some foolish. This is called learning, but learning means if you make a choice that ends in pain, make a different choice next time, not the same old choice. When you make the same old choice that resulted in pain, you are making a foolish choice with your eyes wide open, but with a closed mind.
As humans, we all have a choice on how we choose and experience our creation. We can create a refined creation or an unrefined creation. We all can make wise choices. The key is keeping an open mind with an open heart and use critical thinking. Remember, when you are surviving the old, you can’t dream of the new. Just Imagine.
