Testimonies: Overcoming adversity

Facing a Death & Rebirth: A Breakdown Before the Breakthrough

"Your whole being with its ideas and thoughts can be fragmented into multiple parts with bi-polar personalities."- Dr. John F. Demartini

Facing a death and rebirth is the 7th principle of The philosophy and is wonderfully explained in an amazing article in Scientific American about an asteroid strike that caused the mass extinction of the dinosaurs. The asteroid slammed into the proto-Gulf of Mexico moving at 40,000 miles an hour. It was so large that when its leading edge hit the earth's surface, part of it was still outside the atmosphere. The smoke and dust caused by the asteroid blocked all light for three months. For five years it rained nitric and sulfuric acid, which dissolved the very rocks and sterilized almost every freshwater body on the planet. It took 130,000 years for the earth to cool off. The real mystery now is how the mammalsour ancestorssurvived.

Dr. Preston Douglas, New York Times bestselling author of, Tyrannosaur Canyon says, "Human beings would have never evolved with the mass extinction of the dinosaurs and dinosaurs would have never become extinct without the huge asteroid that hit the earth traveling 40,000 miles per hour and leaving a crater that was 25 miles deep."

On this third dimensional plane called earth, everything follows the ebb and flow of destruction and construction. Facing a Death & Rebirth is a metaphor for collapsing and substituting old, negative thoughts, and behaviors for new, updated self-efficacy behaviors. It means recognizing that a permanent change must take place in consciousness therefore; some pain and anguish must be faced to equilibrate our consciousness to express at the next higher level. This is why it is so important to learn how to benefit from the behaviors that hurt us, so that we learn the lessons from the previous level of consciousness so that when we move to the next level, the negative energy that we once lived with no longer have control or influence over us.

Using the example of parenting, if you have two children five or ten years apart, you may have a story to share about how your first child resented the new child until the first child's consciousness expanded and neutralized the negative behavior and energy, resulting in the acceptance of the second child.

Our DNA patterns (principle #4: The philosophy - DNA is What You Are/DEITY is Who You Are) of belief works the same way; a part of our psyche resents positive, permanent change because it means we have to begin thinking, speaking, responding at a new level that will create discomfort in our comfort zone.
