Personal avowals

  • [O]ne day, Teresa of Avila was nothing more than a Carmelite nun from Avila, Spain who lived 500 years ago [1515-1582] and suddenly, while teaching about her in one of my CMED workshops, her work became a vessel of illumination for me. Since that moment, nothing in my life has ever been the same. Everything in my life – in my world … shifted unexpectedly in an instant and that experience had Teresa of Avila written all over it. And from that experience came my book, Entering the Castle. An Inner Path to God and Your Soul [2007]. Caroline Myss, A Touch of Teresa of Avila's Wisdom, Facebook note, 16. April 2011

 

  • I am obviously an activist. Now i think of myself as a psychic radical, as a an intuitive radical, as a mystical radical. [...] I am a radical of the higher altitudes, I am a grace radical. Caroline Myss, The World Needs Us To Channel Grace, YouTube film, minute 0:41, 5:19 minutes duration, posted 28. September 2010

New elements in relationship

  • Courtship doesn’t exist anymore. [...] We have transformed. Somehow we crack easily, we are more impatient with each other and it is just way too easy to replace someone. Somehow we expect too much from the other. Keynote address (audio) by Caroline Myss, US American spiritual teacher, Loving Pandora. Exploring the Path of Human Intimacy, conference I Can Do It 2011, sponsored by Hay House, Vancouver, 18. March 2011

Selfinquiry

  • The only person managing your soul is you. You take on your fear of becoming a whole person, you take on your fear of truth, of saying
    'Can I possibly be that afraid to love?'
    'Can I possibly be that afraid of empowering another person?'
    'Can I possibly be that afraid of letting another person win a race?'
    'Is that really me?'
    Yes, that is really you!
    'Can I be that afraid of forgiving another person?'
    You are human. And that's what makes you afraid to love beyond your wounds.
Keynote address (audio) by Caroline Myss, US American spiritual teacher, Loving Pandora. Exploring the Path of Human Intimacy, conference I Can Do It 2011, sponsored by Hay House, Vancouver, 18. March 2011

Humility vs. humiliation

  • The true spiritual path is a path of humbleness. I fear being humiliated and I am not going there.
    If you are afraid of being humiliated you will be arrogant and prideful and that will be your downfall. If you are afraid to be humiliated you only live your fate. You will never get to your destiny. [...] People associate God with being humiliated. They assoicate spiritual surrender with being humiliated and poverty. Video interview with Caroline Myss Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, medical intuitive, Human consciousness, spirituality and mysticism, Chicago, USA, presented by webTV, host Lilou Macé on Juicy Living Tour, YouTube film, minute 16:57 and 50:54, 57:26 minutes duration, posted 4. August 2011

War

 

  • If you understand mystical law, the law of energy, you really get that energy is more powerful than matter. And the bullets we shoot with our psychic field are the ones that really count because they are the ones that eventually incarnate into the inspiration [idea] to destroy human life on this planet. And whether we live in one country or another it ultimately doesn't matter because there will never be peace anywhere so long as all of us, any of us break those laws. ALL IS ONE. Keynote address (audio) by Caroline Myss, US American spiritual teacher, Loving Pandora. Exploring the Path of Human Intimacy, conference I Can Do It 2011, sponsored by Hay House, Vancouver, 18. March 2011

Empowerment – Test

Empowerment – Shadow

  • The empowerment journey that is critical to your healing – and to your life – comes from progressing through the deep waters of your dark passions and continuing onward to discover not what has been taken from you, but what you have yet to give and who you have yet to become. Caroline Myss, Defy Gravity. Healing Beyond the Bounds of Reason, pg. 111, 2009

 

(↓)

Forgiveness

  • The act of forgiveness is the act of returning to present time. And that's why when one has become a forgiving person, and has managed to let go of the past, what they've really done is they've shifted their relationship with time. Caroline Myss

Honor

  • Keep your honor code between you and God, you don’t break that, no matter who’s not looking. God is. Caroline Myss, quoted in: Terry Loncaric, Caroline Myss' Journey, presented by Conscious Choice, September, 2003

Healing

  • Healing requires conscious choices. […] Very few alcoholics want to give up liquor. Obese people don’t want to give up food. Diabetics don’t want to give up sugar. People in toxic relationships don’t want to leave because that’s what they know. It’s change. People are afraid of change. Caroline Myss, quoted in: Terry Loncaric, Caroline Myss' Journey, presented by Conscious Choice, September, 2003

 

  • Healing is not about forgetting your wounds, or anything. Healing is not about denying that you have ever seen, been bitten by the dragon. You have. You had a rough time and you are growing up. You have been bitten by the dragon AND you will heal. Both are true. It [wounds] simply has to stop eating you alive. It's about transforming them [wounds].
    Someday the object is to get to the point where you can walk past the dragon and it doesn't have any teeth. You want to take the teeth out of the dragon and then you want to make that dragon something that inspired you to recognize the dragons in others so that it builds the sage in you and the compassionate heart.

Soul

  • The Soul is a fact, but it is not physical. [...] Survivors of near-death experiences attest that some part of them apparently detaches from their physical bodies following the death of the body, but while that is proof of the soul for them, it does not prove it to us. The Soul is like divine music that only God can hear; it is the force of endless resurrection; the soul is like a fire that never goes out. Caroline Myss, Ph.D.Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, Entering the Castle. An Inner Path to God and Your Soul, pg. 57, Simon and Schuster UK, 6. August 2007

Mystics

  • To enter your Castle (soul) is not a journey that takes you away from the world; rather it brings you directly into the world. It brings you fully into your soul, and into your power in the world. [...] Mystics change the world around them more dramatically and more positively than can ever be measured. The mystic works on the invisible plane, relying on God, prayer and grace. Caroline Myss, Entering the Castle. An Inner Path to God and Your Soul, Simon and Schuster UK, pg. 85, 6. August 2007

New mystics

  • We started with this kind of New Age consciousness, which immediately got routed into the consciousness of health, the discovery of the self, the self-awareness movement, the movement of the victim, woundedness, and the inner child. That became the "surrogate spirituality movement." [...]
    The new mystic is not someone who retreats into the ashram or into the monasteries, but rather is someone who remains a very effective lay person in the field – a mother, a lawyer, a teacher, a functioning person in the field – while having a very animated soul. [...] The mystic actually experiences the power of God. Their soul becomes animated. They go from the theory of God, to the fact of God. They go from "I believe", to "I know." Interview with Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, Entering the Castle of the Soul, Randy Peyser, 2007

 

  • One of the governing laws of mysticism is that 'What is in one is in the whole.' What happens in one happens everywhere. In 1944 Oppenheimer ['Father of the atomic bomb'] [Fallen LoC 70] split the atom. […] If he splits the [archetypal] atom all atoms are split simultaneously. […] All life slipped into the quantum dimension. Now energy [consciousness] became before matter. Oppenheimer turned the world upside down. He shattered reality. Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, The Sacred Spaces, chapter 1, Morocco, October 2011

Caution: conscious languaging

Phrases like "I'm always...", "I will/did never...", "I blame you/myself...", "I should...", "I should have...", "I deserve...", "I'm entitled to...", "I'm special..." hinder the spiritual path.

Change

  • You never really know how or when your life is going to change, and that's for the best. Caroline Myss, Defy Gravity. Healing Beyond the Bounds of Reason, pg. 17, 2009

Tribalism

  • You've got to give up reasoning from your five senses. What has to fail you is [...] this tribal form of human experience. Human justice, human reasoning has to fail you. This requires a Judas experience, some form of betrayal of this system.
    You need to have a betrayal experience, because in order to let go of the tribal mind and individuate, what needs to betray you is this form of tribal consciousness. It's not about any one person betraying you. The people in your life chose their roles and their relationship to you before you were all born. One signed up to be a betrayer. Another to be a lover. Another to be a friend. They're all only the players who have agreed to play a certain role in your life. What I'm talking about is the theme of the play; the theme being that in order to let go of the tribal mind, you must have a betrayal experience.
    What you need to understand is that this is not just a betrayal experience by one person. It is the betrayal of a whole system of consciousness that you are no longer allowed to have faith in. You have to have a major event that triggers that.
    Everyone of us is plugged into the tribal mind. Don't think that just because you may now be in the process of leaving it, you're not part of it. We all subject others to tribal laws. And we get miffed if anyone tries to alter the pace at which we and our group are doing things.

True self vs. pseudo self

  • You cannot "reason" your way into the soul. [...] The "mind" is [...] ego-driven whereas the soul is [...] transcendent of ego-driven appetites and instead seeks the irrational, the unreasonable, the impossible, the miraculous – in short, the Sacred.
    [W]e dwell somewhere between the tug-of-war between the endless addiction to have life be what it can never be, which is "reasonable" and the burning desire to surrender to the irrational, unreasonable power of our soul. That is the impulse we feel that constantly creates the discontentment we often mistake as unhappiness. Caroline Myss, Wisdom from the Third Mansion, Facebook note, 16. April 2011

The end of the age of reason

  • The earth is conscious. Nature is conscious. All life is conscious. […] In keeping with the paradox of the Divine, our Enlightenment [the age of reason] turned the light off. The Enlightenment that began in the late 1400s in fact was the beginning of turning off our inner light. We began to take a reason[able] look at the universe. Everything had to have a reason. The end result was: everything that couldn't reason ceased to have value. Trees can't reason. Nature can't reason. Women don't reason very well. They are very emotional. […]
    Intuition, the mystical sense, started to frighten people. […] Women don't trust their own mystical sense. They deny their own. [They]'ve bought into the system that reason governs the soul. Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, The Sacred Spaces, chapter 1, Morocco, October 2011

Paradigm shift

  • What we have now is a world that's built on the illusion that we are reasonable. What we've reached is the end of the age of reason. What we have now is a world where our crisis cannot be reasoned with. There is not one thing [in this world] that can be solved with reason. We do not have problems, we have predicaments. Problems have solutions, predicaments don't.
    We are in a field of predicaments that will take us to a different level of response. They cause us to respond to them. […] What we will discover through these predicaments is the folly of our arrogance, the [arrogance of the] belief that money can solve problems. And so the financial system is collapsing.
    We will discover that all the problems that are going into the predicaments that are bringing us to our knees cannot be resolved by any of the old systems. Why? Because we are coming to end of the finite world, the fossil era, the end of that finite form of consciousness that says everything can be controlled and reasoned with. […] There is a quantum world that has moved the solar world, that world of mystical consciousness that is emerging simultaneously as if to replace it at the same time.

Intuition

  • Interviewer: How a scientist would measure love or intuition?
    Why is the scientific world so critical about intuitive, much less mystical, experiences?
    CM: It has to do with the management of truth. The scientific world is most comfortable with a right or wrong paradigm, a simple reality in which truth is controllable as opposed to truth controlling the observer. In the mystical experience, truth controls the observer, presenting an antinomian domain of thought – that is, a level of perception in which two opposing truths co-exist. (Light as a wave and a particle is one example of such a truth.) It is a challenge to contain opposing truths within your psyche and soul and to honor their pulsating power in the physical world. The majority of people can reside only within the world of opposites, in which one side is right and one is wrong, making their choices easier and the illusions much stronger. For this reason the journey into the soul is so intimidating: It is the journey of illumination and revelation into the domain of truth, melting the polarity of opposites and ascending into the truth that All is indeed One. Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, Newsletter, 11. January 2008

Intuition vs. Divine revelation

  • Intuition is not a spiritual force; it is a practical skill of the ego, not of the soul. […]
    Intuitive gut force: Should I eat this? No/yes. Do I trust this person? No/yes. It's very basic. It's almost reptilian.
    A Divine revelation: will knock you to your knees; it's God in the walls of your soul. Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, Entering the Castle of the Soul, Randy Peyser, 2007

Blocks to intuition

  • You can eat beef on a weekly basis and become a genius intuitive if your energy is in present time. You can consume only organic food while running thirty-five miles a day and "om-ing" until dawn, but if your spirit is raging about your history and is saturated in regrets and unfinished business, you won't be able to intuit your left hand from your right. Caroline Myss, Distractions, Distractions, Healyourlife.com, 19. August 2010

Numbers – Seven:

  • The "template of seven" is the universal structure of the soul. It's what I saw when I wrote Anatomy of the Spirit, that there are seven chakras, seven Sacraments, seven levels to the Tree of Life. We are constructed on a map of seven levels of power. Caroline Myss, Ph.D. Myss.com (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, five-time New York Times bestseller author, lecturer, Entering the Castle of the Soul, Randy Peyser, 2007

Englische Texte – English section on Caroline Myss

You are living proof.

Caroline Myss underwent a revelatory moment with God. The Spanish Catholic mystic saint Teresa of Ávila told her

"Follow me daughter."

Myss dared to destroy eight months of work thereby geopardizing her book contract with publisher Hay House. She asked her publisher about "switching the project to a book on a mystic". She risked her reputation of saneness – all because she "heard God" speaking to her.
Hay House replied:

Teresa of Avila has a deadline of 5 months.

And so it came.

 

Caroline Myss, prone to seizures, a mystic's disorder, requested:

"I want  proof. [...] An apparition that would be too much for me, even as a Catholic."

Inner answer:

"There is no proof. [...] You are living proof. [...] I told you I'll test you.'"

Caroline Myss:

"Dear God, you are a ferocious light."
