avatars and angels

Are you living your life as you? Or as an avatar?

I was listening to Candace Owens yesterday talking about online avatars and how people behave in a very different way through their online personality or avatar than they do in real life. It got me thinking about how maybe we are all living through an avatar to some extent in our actual real lives too. Let me explain. Imagine as a child you were asked to stand up in front of the class and read your poem which had been set as homework the day before. You reluctantly scrape back the chair, grab your notebook in your clammy, dirty fingernailed little hands and slowly stand up. There is an expectant silence from your classmates and you know they are just eagerly waiting for an opportunity to crucify you. You slowly begin to stammer and there is still silence all around you. You dare to hope that maybe you are wrong, that maybe you can get through the reading without attracting their attention, especially if you mumble quietly. But as the first snigger erupts from the back of the class, your heart sinks. Like a wave of ridicule, it spreads from desk to desk until everyone is laughing. The bell rings, the laughter dies out and everyone files out raucously, having instantly forgotten what they were just sniggering at. By the end of playtime, you have probably forgotten the incident too. But not your psyche. Oh no. Your psyche is there to look out for you and it knows that at the tender age of 12, your life depends on fitting in with everyone else. So in that instant, your psyche (un)helpfully forms a new identity for you. An identity which will protect you from ever feeling excluded ever again. This new identity now asserts itself:

I am someone who doesn’t stand out because it’s not safe

At the heart of every identity (or avatar) is a need to resist some uncomfortable experience. In this case, the thing that needs to be resisted is feeling excluded. And so the years pass, and little you grows into a mostly well adjusted member of society, perhaps moderately successful in your personal life and in your professional life. But you don’t really know your own uniqueness. You have never allowed yourself the chance to discover your soul’s true purpose because you’ve been playing it safe, going under the radar all these years. Your avatar has been living your life instead of you. You may have an inkling that you are more, but you just seem to be blocked. And sometimes, things really trigger you because they subconsciously remind you of who you used to be before that long forgotten poetry reading in the sixth grade.

But your ever faithful psyche continues to protect you. It doesn’t forget. So anything that might cause you to be humiliated or excluded again is quickly stamped out. You have an idea for an online business? Forget it. You have a craving to write short stories? Absolutely no fucking way! And just to make sure you don’t inadvertently put yourself in danger, your brain gets in on the action and helpfully runs a biological program which manifests as symptoms somewhere in your body. So every time you feel like now is the moment to put yourself out there, and you feel that fear for even a fleeting moment, you will get a symptom.

Luckily this cannot go on forever.

We know from the work of Dr Hamer, that any emotionally charged event in your life will also create changes in your body. If your avatar has hijacked your life for long enough, you can bet that you are suffering from some kind of chronic ailment. Unfortunately, you have been conditioned by an outdated medical system to believe that this ‘disease’ is caused by some malfunction in your physiology. But Dr Hamer’s fifth biological law, the Law of Quintessence (the 5th dimension, guys!) shows us that our symptoms are our soul’s guardian angels, kindly, but not always gently, guiding us back to our true self so we can reclaim our life from our avatar. How beautiful is that?
