The Alchemy of the New Human Soul & The Birth of Spiritual Elegance
Have you ever wondered what kind of Human we are evolving into as a species? What
characteristics will we have developed in 100 or 1000 years? And where we are going
as communities… on our small blue planet? Have you been struggling with finding your
way in these challenging times? And finding others committed to a truly new Way of
Being?
A New Essence is Emerging within us . . . an Essence that activates our Light and who
we
really Are. This Essence is a new State of Being… that is Fluid, Inspired, Enlightened,
Humble and Strong. And it is attainable, here…. and now.
The Inception
Many years ago I was visiting my family's winter home in Palm Desert... a magical,
sensory place, where I always feel inspired. And the question arose in me, “How can one
person change the world?” I felt my mind pause, hanging in a moment of suspended
anticipation… and then... like quick silver, an answer rang through me.
“Start a trend.”
I felt a chill move through my body from head to toe… my bio-
electric circuitry bathed in
Truth ….and a kind of ecstatic gladness enveloped me.
During this same time frame (while contemplating the photos of Nelson Mandela and the
Dalai Lama) came another inspired thought,
“I wonder if every evolved human has embodied the same qualities and characteristics?”
That day I had no idea where that simple thought would lead me, but I followed the
hunch and initiated a very ordinary online exploration of spiritual teachers around the
globe, (some not
so well known) and also industry leaders who all appeared to possess an uncommon way
of Being… yet easily recognizable, if our antenna is on it.
As I observed these qualities, captured in the essence of these individuals… an
unmistakable Code of Being began to emerge. I wrote down a list of physical attributes
that each of these spiritual teachers or social leaders seemed to share… despite color,
culture, country or creed.
Then digging deeper, I wrote down the attributes of their demeanor and character. It
didn’t
seem to matter what religion or spiritual path they practiced, or what country they lived in
or culture they came from.
THEY ALL APPEARED TO SHARE THE SAME QUALITIES, BOTH INNER… AND
OUTER!
Then another thought formed, “Would it be helpful to give this kind of human a name?”
“Would it be helpful to be able to identify this brand of… evolved human?"
We use “spiritual” to describe a whole host of attributes… but somehow the waters still
get muddied. There are ideas like, “that leader had a dark side, and fell from Grace,” or
“that one has a spiritual ego.” And it’s really no one’s fault, because after all, we are all
Human… and life is a growth opportunity.
"But THIS kind of human, is what we are All evolving into… as an evolving species. As
a Conscious species. They are healed, integrated and whole,” I thought to myself.
And then… like an illuminated sign, the words began to form on the inner screen in my
mind, “THE ELEGANT HUMAN.”
Another shiver ran up my spine and I knew something BIG was in the air around me.
So I decided these qualities were best described as a brand of Spiritual Elegance, and that
these beautiful, evolved humans… were very simply, Elegant Humans. (Elehu, for short -
lol)
Very quickly, a list of attributes began to emerge. Mind you, these attributes are utterly
attainable from a very human stand point. This is not lofty stuff here. And they are
worthy
of attaining… no matter our religious backgrounds or beliefs, no matter what color or
culture
we are from. These qualities or attributes only aid the human we wish to become, as an
evolved human. No part of us is left behind and no part is sacrificed. We get to be exactly
who we are…. and more!
Elegant Human Attributes:
Clear
Calm
Kind
Generous
Genial
Patient
Peaceful
Compassionate
Understanding
Adaptive
Gentle
Strong
Humble
Wise
(To name a few)
They have an air of Simplicity.
They embody a kind of Spiritual Elegance in how they interact with others.
They embody a kind of Calm and Certainty.
They can be leadership oriented and directional, or more introverted.
They can hold any position, anywhere. They can be actors, artists, doctors,
Scientists, playwrights, politicians, CEO’s, teachers, sailors, writers, dancers, or
billionaires.
They can be anyone…in the world.
Anyone…. like You.
They have a strong sense of Presence.
They swim in a state of Coherence.
They have a sense of humor & know how to have fun!
They may even be a little goofy, lol
They don’t take things too seriously.
They have a twinkle in their eyes. and a little upturned smile,
like they know something we don’t :-)
They move through life with a lightness and strength all their own.
They have a strong sense of Self that isn’t Ego-driven, but more
Universal.
Here’s my Elegant Human Equation:
They have a childlike sense of Innocence paired with great Wisdom….
Plus (+) their Humility is matched by an uncommon Nobility.
Innocence + Wisdom
Humility + Nobility
Now, take a Deep Breath.
Can you Feel That??? Because it is our feeling nature that we evolve by….
not through our thinking mind.
FEEL what that combination of attributes, feels like.
And while they may still have bad days like anyone else, they have
a gracious demeanor that conveys empathy and understanding. Their
strength is met with a softness when a situation requires it. They have
met with their Wholeness…. their Integrated Self. They no longer have
unintegrated sides of themselves that will pop out like the Boogyman
and scare us.
They are Safe for us to Trust.
Lastly, these sweet, powerfully present Elehu’s exude Loving Kindness…. to Everyone.
-And they’ve worked very hard (in many lifetimes :-) to get there, within themselves.
So at the end of the day, they live an Undefended Life.
Will you join me in the quest of becoming this brand of Spiritually Elegant Human?
Let us All fall in Love again “like in childhood” with Being Human, shall we? ❤️
How you get there, is YOUR choice.
Earth's Future is Calling...!!
Most of us feel like we need to push the world on its axis to get it to spin. 🌎
We have an internal driver that drives us (and often others) forward… but instead, headfirst we go, straight into the ground. We push life, like there’s no net below to catch us if we fall. And while that may be “true" in every fiber of our being… that reality only lives on the Surface of life. Believe it or not, that believe lives… “out there.” We may not have family or income to support our lives, and we keep taking all the steps, showing up, doing, doing and doing ourselves... into Illness. We’re living life from the Outside In.
We forget – since we are in fight or flight mode in these moments – that the world sits in the middle of deep space, in the middle of a galaxy, in the center of an intelligent, organized system... and that the grace of gravity (among other celestial and scientific things) keep the world spinning… All by its itty-bitty self.
It’s doing it all on its own. Just like breathing and our heart pumping automatically
So— statements like that usually lead us to contemplate the Bigger Picture of Life. Lol And indeed, those who do--- usually find their way to a simpler path in life – one with less push and more pause… Yet with the added benefits of more efficiency and flow… more peace, love and joy... and often more merriment and mirth!
Abundance is a simple learning. We make it SO complicated! And so impossible to achieve. But nay… I say…! (Laughter track here) Abundance is a Dance… And learning to shift gears from living life from the outside in – pushing life to conform to our beliefs, living in lack consciousness (and high, tense shoulders!) to letting life MEET us… Allows Life… In. And that makes all the difference in the world.
I used to push life like this. I had this image pop in my head one day, that I was literally trying to push the planet… To get it to move on its axis! All that effforting… suffering… struggle and strain… When all along, it was doing it already.
That image has stayed with me through life.
But did my patterns change overnight? NO. I had to go ahead and experience grave illness (on the brink of death at 42) and then some more years!.. to get me to change my patterns. Releasing these old patterns is NOT impossible to overcome, when it feels as if it is . But it does take Commitment… Time… A Lot of Patience… And a whole boatload of of Self-Love and Self Compassion. That’s what it takes to Shift.
And that is where the Journey really begins... to an Abundant, happy life. A switch is flipped, and you get to experience a different road of life.
When we Choose to drop the layers of our Resistance to Life…. and it is a Choice (ex: the need to be right, defensiveness, feelings of unworthiness, etc.. all egoic tendencies) and embrace a willingness to release them all… and instead, trust that Life Has Us… That the net is there, whether we can see it or not... that is when Magic Hour begins.
The Lights turn on. The stage for True growth and success in our lives is set.
All of that happens…. on Our Inside.
