The High Cost Of Hating

Do you often say ‘I hate my job’ or ‘I hate my brother’ or ‘I hate…’ well, anything?  If so, read on, because you are subconsciously programming yourself in ways that can cut you off from certain things that you really do want!
 
The way the mind is organised, is that groups of ideas and concepts are filed together in the brain.  We file similar things together, all on the same level, rather like a line of books on a shelf.  The only thing is, if we then connect a certain feeling or idea to one of those things, then all the other things get ‘tarred with the same brush’ – in other words, the brain categorises them all the same way.
 
For example, if you decide ‘I hate my father’  it is a profound thing, indeed! (And not just because of the effect it might have on your Dad!)
 
Let me explain why.  The concept ‘Father’ is  a massively important ‘top level’ concept.  It is a major archetype, icon, a world-wide idea that represents not just your Dad, but half of all society!   ‘Father’ is a powerful subconscious mind concept that incorporates ‘God, Work, Action, Cash, Enterprise, Business, Government, Authority’… and a whole lot more!
 
In subconscious mind terms, simple terms like ‘father’ are connected with a whole lot of other concepts.  Imagine writing a network of everything that ‘father’ makes you think of.  It could take in ‘Old School Tie, Punishment, Success, Winning, Sports, Newspaper, Football’ – pages of ideas about ‘father’.  All these ideas are tied, in your mind to the concept ‘father’.  When you think ‘father’,  all those extra ideas are also a part of the connection and the thought process, and the feeling.
 
So, in mind programming terms, when you say (or subconsciously feel) ‘I hate my father’, you are saying a whole lot more – specifically, you are saying ‘I hate God, Work, Action, Cash, Enterprise, Business, Government, Authority, Old School Tie, Punishment, Success, Winning, Sports, Newspaper, Football!’  This is the ‘shorthand’ that the mind uses to organise information.  Smaller ideas are tied progressively to much larger ones.
 
Any of these ideas that are positive, and that you would like to be a part of you, such as ‘winning’ and ‘success’ unfortunately get thrown out with the bathwater of ‘I hate father’ because they are all in the same group!  If you hate something, you naturally do not want it to be a part of your life!  So when you said ‘I hate father’ you also unwittingly said ‘I hate success’ and ‘I hate winning’ (or whatever else ‘father’ represents to you).  And because logically, you would not choose to ‘hate yourself’ you will subconsciously avoid ‘success’ and ‘winning’.  Eek!
What to do?  Just be aware that this is how ‘inner blocks’ get created.  By our judgement.  We cut ourselves off from valuable bits of ourselves and then wonder why we’re not whole!
As ‘father’ also represents the inner masculine, a very important part of who you are (the acting, doing, thinking part) then when you say ‘I hate my father’ you are also effectively saying ‘I hate myself’. (I hate the male part of myself).  So that is going to create major conflict in you, you are likely to cut off the ‘father’ or male part of yourself, making it ‘bad’ and leaving you with only the feminine ‘feeling’ part, which on its own is not going to get you very far (the feminine being the receptive, feeling part of you.)
 
It’s also true the other way round, for example, if you say ‘I hate my job’ be aware you are also saying ‘I hate my father’ in subconscious mind-speak, which also equates with ‘I hate men’ which may not contribute well to your relationship!  (The same is true of ‘I hate relating’ if a man said it, would equate with ‘I hate my mother, I hate women’.)
 
So, ANY time you say you hate or dislike like something, anything at all, catch yourself and embrace it at the deepest level you can.  You are literally hating yourself, and hate is what you will reap from it!
 
If you do often use the ‘hate’ word in conversation, then it is likely true for you that on a deep subconscious level, that you do ‘hate yourself’.  Subconscious mind beliefs pop out in the words we choose when we are talking.  The so called ‘Freudian slip’.  In this case, embrace and surrender to the idea that ‘I hate myself’ has been true for you, and let it go. Ahh!  Relief!
