Memory Lane
It is important to understand that methods learned that alleviate pain, suffering and misery have been stored in the memory. The same holds true for the afflictions of pleasures and gratifications.
When circumstances in the Spiritual Journey are created to bring attention to those afflictions, the solution of how it was dealt with in the past comes to the forefront to be exercised again and again to relieve stress or relive fervor, but it’s only a temporary measure.
When that memory is acted upon, the series of occurrences continue its activity and the cycles that are meant to free the believer never get broken. When the memorized solution is used, the life-giving spirit force is circumvented.
Listen for and understand the truth that is being shown. The live-giving spiritual force is meant to free the believer from their own personal experiences which are stored in the memory.
