Beliefs are thoughts internalized and held as made-up truths about how the world is and should be
be-lief : a state or habit of mind in which trust or confidence is placed in some person or thing : conviction of the truth of some statement or the reality of some being or phenomenon especially when based on examination of evidence : something believed.
My View...
Your beliefs are the filter in which you perceive your world. Beliefs are held memory or energy stored in every cell of your body, this is the very reason why kicking a habit can be so challenging. You may desire to change, however the trillions of cells in your body may not agree with that change.
This is one of the reasons why some would say that it takes 21 days to develop a habit, and that would make sense given that what you’re really doing is retraining the biology of your body.
In Bruce Lipton’s book The Wisdom of Your Cells he talks about how each cell is like its own memory center recording every aspect of your existence as if each cell were a brain or membrane remembering everything you’ve thought, believed, felt, remembered and emotionalized.
Why is this important? It is because your beliefs determine what you experience in your reality.
My Experience...
In another section I talked about a property dispute situation that I’m dealing with involving my brother. He has the belief that things should be one way and well I have the belief that it should be otherwise.
Even with mountains of proof and not a single witness on his side supporting his belief, he’s holding onto it no matter the cost and not until thousands are spent disproving it in court.
I’ve been amazed at this situation and how tightly a belief can be held onto even though ALL evidence points to it being a false belief.
Going through this situation has caused me to really explore the nature of beliefs and their implications in our experience and how they relate to what we do experience. What I have discovered is that our beliefs can either cage us into a predefined limited perspective or set us free to limitlessness.
I’ve even run across research and individuals whom suggest completely eliminating beliefs altogether and simply defining a set of values and viewing reality through those, instead of having the potential of making the mistake of living a life that was founded on false or limiting beliefs.
I’ve even listened to meditations that have you walk through an imaginary energy screen that’s purpose is to dissolve every believe in every cell of your body as you walk through it, and the reason for this is to point out that every cell in your body is a membrane storing these beliefs, it’s that deep.
Realize like I and so many others, beliefs are the glasses we wear when we see our world, therefore absolute care should be taken when choosing the glasses you wear for they will color your world in ways you don’t know, and you may not even know what’s happening, but rest assured it’s a belief.
The Simple...
What you believe comes true for you. Beliefs are the lens in which you view your reality and this may sound simple but it goes much deeper than that, so deep that wars are built upon beliefs.
To give you an idea of the power of beliefs there’s a technique used called muscle testing or Kinesiology, which through true or false statements and slight pressure on a extended arm for example cause the arm to stay strong if the one being tested believes the statement is true or goes weak if believed false.
Now there’s a fair amount of skepticism in these types of methods, but the point I want to make is how knowingly or unknowingly your body and every cell of your body plays a role in storing the beliefs you hold true for you. Change or eliminate your beliefs and you change everything about your world. They can cage you in or set you free.
Choose to dissolve your beliefs into the knowingness that you are God, that you are unlimited infinite potential energy clothed in human finite form here to experience the boundless joy of your creation in all of its infinite and magnificent expressions.
