Do you think someone who is a Master (or spiritual teacher) has learnt to master all desires of the flesh?
It's playing on my mind, that this is something I need to give up as well as go raw. But I enjoy wine. I feel I don't get enough 'play time' in and I'm hurrying to prepare for my mission (as I feel such a sense of urgency, hurry up). It's stressing me out, so I unwind with a glass or two or three......
I'm not having enough fun - even outdoors in nature. Being an empath I also feel the pain of the chaos on the planet at the moment. It's a real stress relief but I feel a Master has control over the things that master him or her. If I don't have some wine, I feel I have no outlet for stress. It's just a good way to let my hair down. I don't want to feel repressed as I enjoy a drink. If people tell me not to have one I'll rebel. But this is playing on my mind, as if I can't achieve being a Master until I master all things in my life that master me.
Do you have any vices that you feel on your heart to give up?
Do you feel that we can't achieve Masterhood and ascend unless we give up a few things?

thanks James
Well it's not so much a worry, as I really enjoy it as a pasttime and stress relief. However I'm conscious I guess, that this is not Mastery. I'm feeling the calling to be master in my life and co-creator. It feels as if it's not clean. Like 'clean yourselves inside out' or 'live a pure righteous life' or 'be a good example' kind of thing.
I just don't feel a true lightworker really has this habit. What other's do on their journey, doesn't cause me to judge them. It doesn't bother me. But I judge myself.
Thanks tho
Powerful words Anita, thanks
Inspiring
All answers from everyone are appreciated and inspiring. It helps to get my focus and mind into gear.
You know that is a great question. I have thought that myself, especially when it comes to abilities, vibrations. I think that we have preconceived notions about what it means to be a master, and what we have to do in order to achieve such states, abstaine from sex, vegan, abstaine from alcohol, do yoga, meditate, and we will achieve the state of master. We have to put ourselves through the mystical saintly burlap sack running marathon to achieve these states a master and have spiritual bliss.
I do think that (for myself and I am speaking from experience) it can lower vibrations. I have used it to cope with this awakening and the energy gets scrambled and me more miserable. I know about being an empath and feeling the pain of the world, you want a break from the energy, but it is everywhere, even if you hide under the covers. no escape. I have also had problems with alcohol in my younger days so there is that element to this answer for myself, but with this shift in conciousness my relationship to alcohol has changed (hopefully and I am not in denial), and I dont have the desire for many things like I used to. It is like a lot of my addictions (smoking, eating) they seem to be falling at the wayside and are no longer needed as I move through this shift in consciousness. I move towards letting them go and connecting more with the divine, which is what my heart wants.
I also think that in regards to having a few glasses of wine only you can say for yourself, but I was thinking about the things we consume and wonder about intention behind what we eat? Could the intention behind what we eat be more important that what we eat? If I drink wine and think pleasent thoughts of love and think this wine is raising my vibrations, as opposed to drinking out of hate and resentment.......alcoholics drink out of resentment and hate and anger, frustration....(well actully alcoholics just drink no matter what the emotion...ha ha ha) but hopefully you get my point....
For the fun/stress part of your discussion
I tend to be a loner as well, and what I have done is to join meetup groups to increase my social circle and create more fun in my life. I have also consciously set about making more friends and inviting people over. I joined one meetup group where I went to a vortex with some people and we sat next to the river holding crystals. Then a lady told us she was recieving telepathic messges from a ship that landed on the water (in front of all of us) we had to go to eceti ranch - we had so much fun! I was thinking about checking into some stress managment cause when it comes to stress I get all bugged out. I do know for a fact that exercise releases endorphines which helps people feel good and relieves stress. Indigos (some at least) absorb pain, and it is important to move it out of you, like indigo pain sponges.
Maybe the state of master is something that vibrationally mature to, a spiritual maturation of ourselves........ and things that suited us before fall off like the scales on a snake. We open to new things and new lives. Maybe the state of master is something that we set our intention to becoming. We live and act like it is already true, walk through it like you have achieved the state already.
thank you i hope this was helpful
TTT, is this synchronisity or what?
Just as I mentioned above about eating out, you write it too. Once you learn about food and eat organic, it's hard to go back. Eating out in restaurants was a pasttime, now - eerrrrgh - I know better. The food is not prepared with love, nurturing, wholesome ingredients etc. I no longer want this activity. Rather stay at home and make my own from NOW ON.
That group you joined sounds fun. What a great idea! A guy on here a while back would spend many nights under the stars and watch what was going on. That inspired me a bit.
Not long ago I also lost the desire for sex. It was as if I had touched on 'freedom', celibacy, freedom from human desires and chains. I think I must meditate again and go into prayer like I was doing a few months back.
When you watch someone close to you, and what it does to them, you either learn from it and take a different path, or do what they did, and endure suffering.
When I look at my fathers face and see the sadness, I could never drink, that way.
I am glad that I allowed myself to learn from that experience.
Good advice Indigo....
Yep I agree. I am not Master of it yet.
Funny enough, a few months back - the desire for it totally disappeared. I was meditating every morning then, and it was like a miracle to not even crave it.
Then I got stressed by something and started. Now I'm thinking that it's something that I have to master.
I just like the fun I have when I have it. But I'm also feeling that many things are falling away. Eg. I ate out last night - and although the food quality to the restaurant was good enough, I knew the ingredients were all bad stuff. I thought 'this is not an activity that I can enjoy anymore'.
I wasn't totally kidding Anita, I've seen people get totally violent on Alcohol, that's why I stay away from it, my father had serious issues with Alcohol.
On the other hand, I get the opposite when I drink, so that's another good reason to stay away from it. :-) Plus I like feeling like I'm in control, when I drink, I feel like I have less control, and I don't like that feeling...
Dear Butterfly,
Jesus was drinking wine and so all of his apostles:) if it's your flow just go with it, don't think about it, and don't be to hard on yourself. Life is a journey after all. And what is the journey without a good wine:)
Love and light to you.
I agree, but being Russian, do you ever try vodka...?? ;-)
