Year 2011 Day 194 July 12: Consciousness and Cosmetic Surgery

Day 194 Date:  Tuesday July 12, 2011 

Beginning Comments:

            First, I am sorry to announce that I am cancelling my Mandolin café appearance this evening.

            This is because yesterday I had four injections into the facets of my lower back, and am not bouncing back as quickly as I did the last time around (just one injection then).

            I will definitely be at the Mandolin on Tuesday July 26, and expect to also be appearing on August 9th and 23rd.

          Also,  I will be publishing the next message on Thursday July 14, as Don will be having hand surgery tomorrow morning.

            Now, this morning I received the following question from a subscriber:

             I’ve  given cosmetic surgery serious thought over the years; so I am wondering whether you think it would really affect ones overall spiritual and energetic functioning in this dimension of reality.

            I gave this question a little though as I was on my morning meditative walk and need to say that how much consciousness is involved in cosmetic changes is extremely individual.

            My idea is that consciousness in this reality goes hand in hand with self esteem, but, as I mentioned in a recent blog, it also goes along with common sense.

            As an example, for most of my life I was quite thin with more or less a model’s shape, though I could have used a boost in the bust department.

            At the time, I had neither the time nor the money to even think of enhancing that part of my body.

            That part of my body was not tied up in any personal self esteem issues, either. 

            Now, as I am in my retirement years and heard about all the problems associated with implants, I am very glad I was not tempted.

            On the other hand, I have a close relative who ran into a wall (while playing) when he was about six and dislocated his nose.

            His parents could not afford to have his nose fixed so he walked through life with a flattened nose.

            Did it impact his self esteem?  As I heard he apologized for his nose anytime he met someone new, I would say so.

            So I can see a number of questions someone could ask before he or she would consider the expense (and pain) of cosmetic surgery.

1.     Is this body part I want to fix something a self esteem issue I could solve without going under the knife?

2.    Is it something I can financially afford without harming my basic survival?

3.    Is this something which will have a lifetime benefit?  (Breast implants, tummy tucks, whatever, might be meaningless after a decade or two, but fixing a child with a cleft lip is likely to have a major impact on the child’s whole life).

4.    Does this also address a medical problem? (The relative who never had the nose fixed had a major snoring problem all his life).

            And now, I throw the matter out to my sources:

Energy Shift:

"Ashunayetya!

            Today, I bounced from seeing Carrell (who gave me his ugly skeletal grin)  on Level 28 to looking in a mirror in the ladies’ room at Gramps’ Pharmacy in Doriville.

            Frankly, I didn’t know Gramps had a ladies room, so I suspect this is an add-on for the day.

            When I look into the mirror, however, I do not see my reflection, but instead some kind of swirling time dimensional tunnel.

            Benjamin appears behind me in his glowing cobalt blue human form.

            “What you might have forgotten about bodily parts is that sometimes they are karmic inheritances – remnants from issues of other lifetimes.

           How one deals with the issues the body part which one does not like is very much an issue of spiritual growth and consciousness.

            I would agree that some body parts require fixing, but in many cases,  it is the emotional/spiritual perspective which needs attending, and once the emotional/spiritual issue – be it this life or an inheritance from other lives- is healing, often the desire to fix the body part vanishes.”

            I thank Benjamin for his comments and return to normal consciousness.

Ashunayetya!

                     Dori"

Ending Comments:  

            As Benjamin spoke to me, a personal issue flashed into my mind.

            Most of my life, I have had to deal with fly-away hair. 

            Until I was about five or six, it was curly;as it got thicker and heavier, it grew straighter, only it had a stubborn wave which made it difficult to control.

            As an adult, I tried perming it but didn’t like how it dried out my hair.

            Finally I decided that I was going to like my semi wavy fly away hair and try to find a hairdresser who could do the most with it.

            Then last August I had a form of mild chemo (for my autoimmune anemia) called rituxan.

            Rituxan was not supposed to cause hair loss, but I did notice my hair thinned a little.

            About the same time, during a time of unusual humidity in Colorado, I asked my hairdresser to layer my hair (rather than have it all one length).

            Last winter, I noticed something odd – my hair was getting curlier, and now, half a year later, my hair looks almost as if I have a perm.

            I laugh a little because I would have ‘killed’ for this hairdo twenty years or so ago.

            Ask many wise people have said,  sometimes one has to be comfortable with where one is before anything changes – at any level – physical emotional, spiritual,  you name it.
