S10 E17-20 (Building Success Habits) The Soul - Entering the Mysteries  

Londina Cruz & Donna Kunde - “Building Success Habits” 
IBGR.Network...We Have Your Back
​

The Soul - Entering the Mysteries  
Unlike the Ego that helps build individual boundaries, the Soul is the part of us that provides meaning and value in our lives. It is not necessary to believe in God in a religious sense in order to develop the Soul we are speaking about. Soul is activated when we search to know the meaning of life, when we want to feel connected to something bigger than ourselves or when we contemplate our morality.

E17 Soul Initiation on The Hero’s Journey |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz 
  1. “Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.” – Swami Sivananda
  2. The purpose of initiation is to help us recognize the meaning and significance of the experiences it symbolizes in our own lives. The uninitiated do not lack the experience of Soul, but they fail to recognize its power and meaning. 
  3. The Hero’s Journey is an initiation into the realities of the Soul Journey. This journey requires us to establish and let go of control over our lives in order to experience life’s wholeness. 
  4. To do this, we must expand our Ego’s narrow view and let go of sentiment, safety and predictability and even our concern with physical safety, effectiveness and virtue. 
  5. Without Soul, we feel like robots. We go through all the right motions, but it ends up being movement without meaning. Every time we enter into initiation we go deeper and deeper into our levels of understanding. 
  6. There is no punishment for failing to connect with our Soul except the ever-present sense of meaninglessness in our life .. which is punishment enough!

E18 The Hero’s Journey Soul Initiation - Becoming Real  |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz 
  1. “The living soul of man, once conscious of its power, cannot be quelled.”----Horace Mann
  2. Initiation begins in childhood with our first experiences of confusion, suffering, intense love, longing and frustration. The story of Pinocchio is a well-known example of this process. He starts out as a wooden puppet and transforms into a real boy. 
  3. On the symbolic level, living life only at the level of the Ego is like being a robot, toy or other inanimate object. We feel a burning desire for a more genuine experience. The quest with its call to Spirit is only the first step to finding such genuineness. 
  4. Initiation shakes up our way of seeing the world and requires us to connect with our deeper wisdom to understand what is happening to us. 
  5. This initiation may anticipate the experiences of suffering, deprivation and loss brought on by the Archetype of the Destroyer, the capacity for genuine and passionate love and connection associated with the Archetype of the Lover, and finally, the union with one’s Soul, which allows for the birth of the new Self (the Creator).

E19 Shifting Soul Perspectives on The Hero’s Journey |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz 
  1. “Always trust your instincts, they are messages from your soul, they are that inner part of you that strives to make you whole.”----- Anonymous
  2.  When we let go of everything in our lives and consciousness that needs to die, and we are open to what needs to be born, we learn to feel the awe and wonder that our own willing participation in these cycles can bring. 
  3. It is difficult for our Egos to understand Soul suffering in any form. The Innocent wants to deny unpleasant truths, and just have faith. The Orphan takes death and suffering as further indication that life is not fair. The Caregiver and the Warrior both try to protect the world from suffering - the Warrior through trying to find and slay the cause of suffering and the Caregiver by taking all suffering on itself to save others. 
  4. A shift of perspective is basic to all initiating experiences. We have to learn to see, hear and think in ways that make new levels of experience accessible to us. This is also an exercise in altering our perceptions. 
  5. Most of us do not consciously choose our initiation. It just happens to appear and often is quite a shock! We can be shocked into disorientation by sudden suffering, loss or pain. We can also become disoriented through pathology, disability or betrayal. Others become disoriented by an overload of stress and an inability to cope with their lives. The hectic pace of modern life may be a strategy we use as a culture to overwhelm ourselves into disorientation, but these usually backfire.
  6. Disorientation by itself is not initiation. Initiation happens only when we are thrown enough that we begin to search for meaning at a deeper level. 
  7. The challenge in this is to not try to pretend everything is under control. Stay with the sense of disorientation and powerlessness while staying open to a deep inner knowing of what you need to see that you have not seen .. What is the lesson? In these moments the rational mind wants to figure it all out. This is the Ego’s way of jumping in, but Ego cannot help at the Soul level. 
  8. You can quiet your mind during initiating moments by saying, “This seems like an initiatory experience to me. I know I can figure it out. I also cannot push harder and get the situation under control. I can use my Ego to act responsibly in the world while this is going on (take care of my responsibilities). But it is my Soul that is being awakened by these experiences. All I can do to deal with this is to wait until the learning I need comes to me.”

E20 Archetypal Influences on Soul Development  |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz
  1. “My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.”------ Rumi
  2. The four Archetypes most active on the journey to becoming real (like the puppet Pinocchio became a real boy) are the Seeker, the Destroyer, the Lover and the Creator. Together they help us experience meaning and authenticity in our lives.  Each parallels a different element or aspect of the Soul. 
  3. The Seeker seeks enlightenment and transformation but initially is very controlled by the thinking process of the Ego. The Seeker’s journey requires courage to break away from dependency and leap ahead into the unknown. We always fear what we do not understand or know. The Seeker in each of us challenges us to explore what we fear most. By braving the unknown, we ourselves are transformed. 
  4. All heroes know we cannot gain the treasure without the willingness to confront the dragon. We first come as Warriors believing the dragon is outside ourselves. We slay it and win the treasure of Ego strength. When we confront it again, we recognize the dragon is ourselves and we gain access to the treasures of our Souls. 
  5. The inner Lover Archetype comes through unification of our opposing attributes within us like our conscious and unconscious minds. This allows us to feel redemptive, compassionate (agape) love not only for another, but also for ourselves. This results in a deeper and more unified experience of the Self, characterized by greater and greater aspects of wholeness, potency and power. 
  6. The Creator Archetype helps awaken the seed of our genuine identities deep within us. It is part of what we call the imagination and provides focus to our imaginative efforts. 
  7. We can experience these four Soul-related Archetypes consciously in analysis (or dreams); through spiritual searching or through day-to-day experiences in your life.
