Appendix: Seminar Outline

1. Understanding Your Emotional Self: Session 2 Part 1

So this is session 2 regarding emotions and your relationship with God and understanding your emotions. We feel we've got a lot more sessions we need to do on this subject, because we feel most people don't really get it even after we've talked about it generally.

1. Emotions and the Way

Let's cover a few basic things about your relationship with God. There are two things you need to understand about emotions in relation to your relationship with God. Do you know what those two parts might be? With two people, or in this case if you've got a relationship with God, who's involved? You and God. So part 1 has to refer to God, and part 2 has to refer to you. So the subject of part 1 is God. And the subject of part 2 is me. I want a relationship with God.

Now what is it with part 1 that we need to know about emotions with God? Well with God, everything is emotional. Everything is based on our soul; it's all emotional. Everything's about God's Feelings, God's Emotions, the way God feels is a feeling of love for you. You can't receive that Love unless God felt that Love for you first. So everything about God is emotional.

So if I am going to connect to God, if I'm going to engage the Way to God, how is my intellect going to function here? As a tool.

Participant: My intellect is only going to help me as a tool to work out where I'm not emotionally connected to God.

So my intellect is just a tool. Now if I have thoughts for God, is God going to receive those thoughts and act upon them?

Participant: No. Unless they're with an emotion.

Correct. So unless the thoughts have triggered an emotion, then of course every thought I have, from God's perspective, is your thought. You're allowed to have it, but it's not going to affect Me, because there's no emotion in it; that's how God sees it. God lets you have every thought you have right now, that doesn't have an emotion connected to it, but it has no effect on God until there's an emotion with it.

So with me, what I have to understand firstly, I am emotional: so for me to have a relationship with God, what do I have to do? I have to be emotional in my relationship with God. I have to have some feelings, some desires, some passions, some longing. That's why prayer is a longing for God's Love. It's a longing, a feeling that comes out of you towards God.

So the intellect is just a tool to help you be emotional. It's a tool to allow you to make logical choices and decisions, but bear in mind that they're not going to be very logical, unless you're emotional. A lot of people think the opposite of that.

Many of you ladies are trying to be men when it comes to your emotions. You've lived in a world where the intellect has become dominant and your true nature is emotional, and yet the intellect has become dominant, and for the majority of you now, you look down upon emotion. You don't even let yourself have it. You look down on it so much. Yet God created you in such a way that your nature is emotional, and you're shutting that down. Of course God created all of us with an emotional nature, but in particular a woman has more of a connection with that by nature. The male also has the intellectual part of his emotions in play, whereas the women have the emotional part of the emotions in play more often. Yet you're shutting that down and becoming like men. [00:19:07.21]

Mary: Trying.

Trying to, yeah. It's not very successful. Can't change your body, because that's still a woman, one. And you can't change your soul's nature. Yet you're trying. So it's very counterintuitive.
