"SPIRITUALITY" CAN BE "NOT POWERFUL"

Many people use such terms as "may the spirit guide me". This is both useful and possibly harmful.

It is useful in that it opens one to accessing more parts of the brain for a better overall view of the relevant facts.

It is not useful to the degree it is believed to be anything other than a metaphor (but one that is not true, per se). There is no provable "spirit" out there, one that is operating as an independent entity from oneself. It has no more validation than making believe and personifying the devil - that is all magical thinking.

We "make up" things to explain the unexplainable or not fully seen aspects of life. Some make-ups are useful, but it is far more useful to use facts and full reasoning.

If we use facts and full reasoning, we will come to the conclusion that the power is in us, in our incredible memory and our incredible ability to reason about what we access from memory and what we observe in the real world. We are the source of the power - not some outside entity.

Read this section and see if you agree and want to use the Statement Of Fact And Intent, at the end of the discussion.

The point here is that it is more powerful to recognize that the source of power is not "out there" in some spiritual being, but is entirely within you and entirely accessible and usable for more effectively creating the life you want.

May you be more powerful in your life as a result of this understanding.
