Radical Acceptance

Radical Acceptance

“Radical Impermanence Requires Radical Acceptance”. I read this phrase in a novel. It intrigued me. I looked it up and Artificial Intelligence gave me a description. I read the underlying articles that AI read, but I actually liked AI’s description better. Tongue in cheek, I heard my Soul say… AI is All Intelligence!

Here is AI’s spin on the concept.

Radical Impermanence is the idea that all things are constantly changing. Radical Acceptance is the practice of embracing reality as it is, without judgment or resistance. By combining these ideas, individuals can reduce suffering caused by fighting change and instead find inner peace by accepting the impermanent nature of life. This involves acknowledging difficult emotions and situations as they are, rather than trying to deny or resist them. It fosters growth and resilience.

I encourage us to understand that all situations, all people, and all institutions change. Trying to stop that is like trying to stop the tide. Change is evolution. If some changes seem like they are devolution instead of evolution, we need to consider “why” the change is happening or “why” we think it is devolution? Do the people urging the change feel that the change is the only way to get power, to stay in power or to stand in their power? Do the people who feel like the change is devolution not evolution think the change is taking their power away? Either way, it is about third dimensional power, not fifth dimensional power. Fifth dimensional power is the energy of remembering who we truly are. We are Source. The way we might describe ourselves with our gender, nationality, race, or philosophical leanings are only third dimensional characterizations. Striving for wisdom, love and power to know ourselves as Source IS Radical Acceptance.

Our mission is to figure out our “why” in every situation. If our “why” is not in alignment with the highest plan, we clear on it. Then, we work to be in the energy of Radical Acceptance, Radical Allowing, Radical Detachment, Radical Non-Judgment. And we work to be in Divine Power, Divine Wisdom and Divine Love.

If you need images to help you hold the energy, consider these ideas. For the impermanence aspect of this phrase, look at the leaves on a tree in the Autumn. The tree isn’t lamenting the change. It embraces it just like we humans do when we leaf peep.

For the acceptance aspect, look at the picture accompanying this blog entry: a human lying on the grass with the sun streaming in. The energy of unconditional acceptance without judgment, worry or resistance flows through this image.

May you be in Radical Acceptance of yourself as Love and Light, of yourself as Source.
