History, Act, and Issue: A House for the Ego

May 14, 2018 by Steve Beckow

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

A blast from the past: c1987

Again, in the calm before the storm of love and abundance, I’m trying to publish as much helpful literature as I can, to aid the newcomers who are expected in large numbers in the not-so-distant future.

The book I’m writing now draws on research from the early 1980s on restorative listening, a specific type of listening designed to help people through an upset.

A distinction made in 1987 caught my eye. I’d entirely forgotten about it, but it has more power now, given all the learning that’s happened between then and now.

The distinction lies in the words “history, act, and issue.”

Many of us are constantly honing the impression we hope to make on other people. We practice our lines and tell and retell our howdido (how did I do?) story until we come out looking good. I watch myself do it all the time.

We divide our efforts at image management into three areas: history, act, and issue.

(1) Creating a self-serving history is how we manage the past to ensure that we come out looking good.  We rehearse our story again and again until we have it just right and set that version in stone.

(2) Creating and practicing an act (plus judicious use of our polished history) is how we try to manage the present. We create our lines, practice our poses, and make sure to look around the room when we flash our best smile.

(3) Creating and maintaining issues is how we manage the future. We scatter eggshells around us. Our friends are those who walk on them; our enemies, those who refuse or crush them.

In my view, our ego has no other purpose than that of ensuring the survival and prospering of itself and everything it owns or identifies with.

It camouflages itself in a history, claims entitlement based on an act, and keeps its enemies off balance and at bay with issues.

The ego is the source of a you-or-me, zero-sum, win/lose world.

The ego isn’t bad and wrong. It worked well for Neanderthals, keeping them safe, dry, and well fed. It just cannot reach to the place where real love resides (i.e., higher dimensions than the Third/Fourth).

Our higher dimensional self – whatever dimension it’s on, beyond the Third/Fourth – is the source of a you-and-me, positive-sum, win/win world.  We’re told – and shown – that that’s where we’re headed, that that’s the way of the future.

By observing ourselves creating our history, rehearsing our act, and laying the landmines of our issues, we’re watching ourselves create an identity, a house for the ego. I used to call what we then created “the constructed self.”

Awareness is all that’s needed for our housebuilding activities to cease and fall away. What then is revealed is the Natural Self, beyond the ego.

The Perfect Primer

The perfect primer for answering questions from the newly-awakened.

Jesus: You are Bringing to Light What Needs to be Revealed

  • You live in tumultuous times and you live in a time of fulfilment. … You are leaving compassion and latitude for correction and understanding.
  • You are bringing to light what needs to be revealed so it doesn’t destroy the fiber of your society. …
 When you see the shadow, it defines the light.  (Jesus through Linda Dillon, Heart Call, Sept. 19, 2020.)

Divine Mother: Not in My Plan?

  • Divine Mother: [I am speaking about] those in … positions where control and abuse of power have been rampant. That will not be the platform [from] which integration of the various galaxies [into the new region of space] takes place. That is not the Plan.
  • I know very clearly, sweet one, as do you, if it is not [in] my Plan, then it will not occur.  ( The Divine Mother in “Enter the Delegations – Part 2/3,” May 5, 2019, at http://goldenageofgaia.com/2019/05/05/enter-the-delegations-part-2-3/.)

The Mother’s Clarion Call to All of Humanity!

This is my clarion call to all of humanity to embrace love, to embrace truth, to embrace peace…

The Divine Mother’s Mandate

  • Build what is divinely beautiful. I give you my divine authority to do so. I will guide you. I will help you. But I entrust this to you as well. …
  • We are helping you. That gateway is open and you are being flooded and you are being assisted and you will be assisted every step of the way.
  • (“Transcript ~ The Divine Mother: Take Up Your Divine Authority, AHWAA, February 23, 2017,” February 28, 2017.)
  • On the Divine Plan for Ascension.

Bring It Back to the Love

  • Beloved child, son of my heart, [Ascension, spiritual evolution] is only about love, about the many expressions, about the many forms.
  • And truly of anchoring and being nothing but the love, in intellect, in wisdom, in sharing, in adventure, in relationship.
  • It can only be [that way] when you continue to bring all adventures, all arguments, all explorations back to the love.
  • (The Divine Mother in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, April 30, 2019; also at http://goldenageofgaia.com/2019/06/01/the-divine-mother-it-is-all-a-journey-of-love/).

The Pattern of the Mother

  • This universe is designed around the pattern of the Divine Mother. What is that pattern?
  • Creation, preservation, transformation = love building, love preserving, love dissolving = inbreath, pause, outbreath = rajas, sattwa, thamas (gunas) = Akar, Ukar, Makar (Aum) = Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva (Trimurthy).

Archangel Michael: Do not Get Caught in the Drama of White Hats or Black Hats

  • Beloved ones, do not allow yourselves to be distracted, yes, by the chaos….
  • Do not get caught in the drama of white hats or black hats, or good guys or bad guys. All beings are birthed directly from the Heart of One…. (“Archangel Michael: Do not Get Caught in the Drama of White Hats or Black Hats,” Nov. 12, 2019; see here.

Do not Venture Where There is No Love

Do not venture where there is no love. Because, if there is no love, then there is no truth. And if there is no truth, there will not be peace and [peace], Sweet One, is the Plan. (Archangel Michael in a  personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, June 17, 2020.)

Werner Erhard on Responsibility

“Responsibility begins with the willingness to take the stand that one is cause in the matter of one’s life. It is a declaration not an assertion, that is, it is a context from which one chooses to live. Responsibility is not burden, fault, praise, blame, credit, shame or guilt. In responsibility, there is no….”  (Read more…)
