What Can You Trust?

Every patient has problems with trust, and so does the therapist. You cannot live in this world without experiencing the betrayal of trust. Distrust is a necessary experience for Self-realization. Our implicit trust is in our story and that is why we have to experience distrust before we can awaken. We mouth the phrase that everything happens for a reason, but we don’t know the reason. Distrust is the symptomatic experience necessary for real Trust. So let us examine here some of the things we trust, some of the reasons that trust is broken, and what real Trust is:
  • You can trust that your story is going to be hit-and-miss
  • You can trust that you will be betrayed by your story
  • You can trust that your story is not really true
  • You can trust that your story will lead to dissatisfaction
  • You can trust that your story will lead to attempts to control and to failure to control
  • You can trust that you will feel anxious and guilty as long as you are unconsciously committed to your story
  • You can trust that your disappointments and suffering are due to your belief system
  • You can trust that you empowered your belief system and are responsible for its results
  • You can trust that you are moving toward an awakening.
  • You can trust that nothing will harm you, although many things offend the ego
  • You can trust that your significant other will present to you exactly what you need to deal with next
  • You can trust that your partner’s story is essentially the same as yours, although it looks quite the contrary.
  • You can trust that the universe is designed for your self-realization
  • You can trust that your seed thoughts will produce like results
  • You can trust that other people are doing the same thing you are
  • You can trust that your relationships are mirroring exactly what it takes for your awakening
  • You can trust that the needs of an imperfect human will never be met and will always be frustrated to one degree or another.
  • You can trust that your perfect spiritual self has no needs and no frustrations
  • You can trust that your awareness is all that is lacking
  • You can trust that unawareness brings suffering
  • You can trust that your ego story is a victim story and that your spiritual self is not a victim in any way.
  • You can trust that as long as you are attached to the unholy trinity (the belief in separateness, lack and entrapment) that you will always be searching and not finding.
  • You can trust that if you don’t fill up your God-Space with anxiety that God will fill it with himself.
  • You can trust that if you keep the God-Space clear that out of it will flow the power of Wisdom, Health, Abundance, Love, Peace, Freedom and Joy.
  • You can trust that once the God-space is clear, you can put any seed thought in it and it will manifest
  • You can trust that fear will disappear the more love is allowed
  • You can trust that you will not lose what you are and that you already are what you want, whether you know it or not.
  • You can trust that you are already the perfect spiritual being that God created, and there is nothing you can do about it, except to deny it or accept it
