The problem here is, we have what is called separate realities. There is an event that happens to both. The event creates different thoughts that create different feelings: +feeling = +thought --- EVENT --- thought = -feeling You cannot know how she is feeling about the event, but you can know the feeling she has about this event when you feel the same about another. EVENT = FEELING = EVENT Read more

What is Three Dimensional Spirituality?
The Physical includes all things seen by the rational head.
The Spiritual includes all things unseen which are sensed by the conscious heart.
Three spiritual things that exist which are unseen are Conscious Feelings, Rational Thoughts and an inner Spiritual Presence which contains Peace, Love, and Joy. There is a Wisdom that comes from the experience of the Presence.
All of us are always looking for one thing: to feel good.
All of us always solve all of our problems with only three solutions.
One Spiritual Dimension is our feeling about what happens to us. Here we think events create our feelings. Negative events create negative feelings. If we can change the event to being positive, we then can feel good. If we cannot change the event, we become victims to it.
Two Spiritual Dimensions contain both Rational Thought and Conscious Feeling. It understands our thoughts, not events, create our feelings. Change a negative thought about an event and you change a negative feeling into feeling good. If we cannot find a good thought we will never find closure to what happened.
Three Dimensions uses Conscious Feeling, Spiritual Presence and Rational Thought. When we cannot change the negative event or thought, we can transcend them by being open to our Spiritual Presence. When we are out of the Presence our, rational thought creates our conscious feeling about the event. When we are in the Conscious Feeling of the Presence of God (good), Rational Thought gives us Wisdom in and not about the event. It is here we become victors, not victims, of past events and we find closure from past memories.

Dealing With Marriage Infidelity
Posted by The Rev on May 08, 2012
These sessions can be seen as setting boundaries. There are two ways to set up boundaries. We can set up external boundaries to get internal peace or we can get internal Peace to set up external boundaries. Advice columns try to set up external boundaries. They give good advice on what to do and say. Setting up external boundaries gives one a sense of peace of mind to think in a positive way. The problem comes when the boundary is broken by the other person. It can easily bring back the old fear, hurt and anger. Read more

Dealing with a Guilt Complex
Posted by The Rev on Apr 03, 2012
When we have the feelings of a guilty conscious, it is a sign we are out of His Presence. Under the Law, when we are out of the Presence of the Love of God, we confess our sins to be forgiven and to be loved by God. In grace, we get in the Presence of the Love of God to be forgiven. We confess our sins because we are forgiven. Read more
I Have an Anger Complex
Posted by The Rev on Mar 27, 2012
"I have a problem with not being able to fully control my anger." One of the problems with anger control programs is, it isn't the anger. We use our anger to cover our real feelings. When you are Out of the Presence, your reality is pain and anger about what you think happened to you. When you change how you think In the Presence, you change what you think of the event. Within us is a Presence that can put our life back on track. Read more
