We are a living portal. Cool. Sounds esoteric. Now we have to actually live it out in daily life. Why? Because this is a reality and a community of spiritual beings who are prioritizing integration. Why is integration so important? Because how otherwise are we able to bring a frequency from a different dimension into this dimension? If we ourselves are not rooted in this dimension, we're just gonna be floating over it. If we are the portal we need to anchor ourselves in, Welcome to the Ground of Love. I'm your host, Olivia Frazao. This is a podcast for people who are deeply dedicated to the spiritual journey. You are here for self-growth care, for others, and being of service to the world. This podcast is in service to you to help you remember who you are and why you are here, you will receive inspiration, clarity, and no BS Love. We are walking each other home. Let's begin. This is a very core episode because we are looking at, when it comes down to it, what are we doing here and what do we need to truly do it? Who are we? Who are we being here? And what do we need to actually be that? This is not theoretical. We have the capacity to create changes, to prioritize things in our lives, to find each other, and to offer ourselves in ways that we are truly living out our spiritual purpose by choice, not waiting for something, not watering something down, not looking the other way, but considering our agency about, okay, we are here. What is it in this lifetime that we have offered ourselves to that life is calling us to, because we all know that the world is going through a lot of turmoil right now on basically every level. And so my question here is to all of us, those of us who are here, who know ourselves as being dedicated to something greater than what illusion perceives. What is it that we are truly called to and what do we need and how can we support each other and receive the support that we need to truly be able to show up during these times To be who we are here to be and to offer ourselves, to offer our emanation, to offer ourselves in service as love in the ways that we know are truly our purpose, despite the fact that we also have hard times, despite daily life routines, and work and family issues that need our attention here we are living in the world, not in a monastery, not in an ashram, not in a cave in the mountains. We are experiencing human life and at the same time we know that there is a thread that has always called us back to ourselves on a much deeper level. That has always called us back to the divine on a much deeper level, up until now. There is a calling that no matter the difficulty. That no matter the time that passes, that no matter all of the different roles that we have, this calling keeps calling to us and we keep coming back to it. So what does it really look like to live this out in its, let's say, ideal form or ideal version? We are dedicated to seeing through veils of illusion towards what truly is. We're dedicated to be carriers of emanations, of healing, of love, compassion. How are we actually living out our spirituality? How is this not just something that you do sometimes, or a theory that you like or a belief system that doesn't actually live itself out in daily reality? We have a big job to do. It is a multi-dimensional job. We're talking about our role being the capacity to be a living portal, to be a bridge across worlds, from non-physical to physical, bringing the non-physical worlds into physical matter, and at the same time, while holding this immensity at the same time, living an integrated life. Where we are embodied, where we are showing up in the physical world, where we are living our daily life with responsibility, with healthy relationships, with showing up for our family, in our community, with being healthy in our body, in physical life as a good human being. So here's the conundrum, or here's our challenge. Here's truly what we are called to. We are the portal. We are the bridge between worlds. We need to interface within a world that is of a very dense and incoherent frequency range while somehow holding a frequency that is basically foreign to those frequencies; that is healing towards them. But that is a, a threat to the world maintaining itself within the current incoherence that it's in. So we are here to live divinity in daily life, and we need the skills to be able to bridge the worlds in order to do so. How do we live divinity in daily life? What does that even mean? What does it mean to be a bridge? What does it mean to be a portal? What does it mean for the heart to remain open so that that which is desiring to seep in like water seeping into the ground, that light, that coherence, that greater life force, that whisper of greater truth, that whisper of guidance towards that which is most healing, can come in and seep in and land into and spread into like water flowing, spread into this world of all of this incoherence, of all this weirdly structured consciousness that's revealing itself in all of these painful behaviors and really destructive, sociopolitical institutional level stuff. It is necessary for our own wellbeing and it's what we're here to do, to be bridges. For our own wellbeing. In order for us to actually stay afloat, in order for us to actually stay resourced, in order for us to actually be who we truly are, it is a necessity for us to open, to receive and keep coming home to these greater frequencies of being, to this greater coherence, to this greater oneness, to this greater life force, to this greater vantage point to the open heart that's able to actually emanate something beyond what the limited mind gets sucked into and what the emotional body gets totally fried into so quickly and easily. It's really tough. This is why we need each other. This is why it's a requirement to have mutual support. It's not cute. It's not a nice to have. It's a requirement. I remember one of my teachers, Lorraine DeLear telling me this, I it's some kind of a fable or some kind of a, a symbol that people use to try to explain this kind of stuff. Let's say there's a forest, that's a sick forest, okay, so all the trees in the forest are sick. You take one of those trees out of the sick forest and you make it healthy. Great. Everything's great. Healthy, healthy. Now you take that healthy tree, you put it back into the sick forest, what's gonna happen to it? It's gonna get sick again, because that's everything that's around it, right? There is some kind of a tipping point. And it's not necessarily a majority in terms of numbers, but it's a majority in terms of the power of frequency itself. Where if enough trees, again metaphorically, you gotta ask some botanist whether or not this is true. But if enough trees are healthy, then the sick ones are actually gonna become healthy, right? There's the tipping point in either direction where if the majority is sick, everybody else, it's a cascade, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Everyone's gonna go into incoherence. Now I'm talking about coherence and incoherence, rather than using the word sick and healthy, same thing. It's gonna cascade in the direction of health, it's gonna cascade in the direction of coherence. If there is enough coherence, It doesn't have to be literally a numbers majority, which is why there's hope here,'cause the numbers majority is kind of a tall order at this point, and we need a lot of change quite quickly. There is much greater power in those of us who come together with shared intention and shared open heart than there is in us working alone. There is a magnification effect, so it's not a numbers game, this is non-linear. This can be exponential. This can actually happen in a short period of time. There can be a magic where these flows, these attractor patterns. These spirals start actually spiraling in a different direction because of certain forces. Doesn't have to be the majority that are actually holding a greater coherence, that are holding a greater vision of health, that are holding a greater emanation. That is then signaling into the collective signaling, signaling, like a lighthouse, like a beam going, beep, beep, beep, beep. Here's the new signal. Here's the new signal. And everyone who's kind of close enough in dimensional relevance to that signal starts picking it up, starts shaping itself naturally towards that new signal, and then that signal of health, of wellbeing, of the emanation of goodness. Goodness, meaning unconditional love, union unity, the truth of peace can then flow. And like domino effect cascade across the collective. So that's our work as an open portal, as being a healthy tree in an unhealthy forest. Finding each other so that we can strengthen each other and say, Uhuh, uh, nope. Don't go there. Don't fall into that trap. Remember, we are healthy. Oh, yes, yes. What is healthy? Ugh, I don't remember. Here. Look at us. This is what healthy looks like. Oh, yeah, cool. Okay. Now I remember it in myself, right? The more that we have that with each other, the more we can cascade that through the space. So that's what I'm calling being a bridge. It's literally bringing dimensions of, let's say peace, okay? Love, coherence, wisdom compassion into dimensions of these consciousness grids of incoherence, of the mental mind, of all of these rigid belief structures that are very, very misguided. Because we're held into this trap of illusion on a really strong level where everything is so fragmented and so chaotic. Yay. We get to be the bridge, by the way, in all of the lineages, at least that I know. Literally, that is the role of the human being. That the human being is open through the head centers to the heaven fields and through the lower centers of the body to the earth fields. And we actually are this basically like a grounding rod. The way a grounding rod is used for lightning. We are a living portal. Cool. Sounds esoteric. Now we have to actually live it out in daily life. Why? Because this is a reality and a community of spiritual beings who are prioritizing integration. Why is integration so important? Because how otherwise are we able to bring a frequency from a different dimension into this dimension? If we ourselves are not rooted in this dimension, we're just gonna be floating over it. If we are the portal we need to anchor ourselves in, how do we anchor ourselves in, it's called being in our body. Isn't that crazy? How can we be in our body? How we gotta do work on our nervous system. All of a sudden, I'm taking this conversation that sounds really, really esoteric. And in order to live out our esoteric reality, we need to do the daily, the basic, the most fundamental physical things of self care, of personal wellbeing, wellness, learning how to take care of ourselves when we're triggered, learning how to take care of all of our IFS parts, our internal family systems parts. So us being this magical bridge, this great esoteric portal, what is that? That's us learning how to regulate our nervous system so that we are actually living in our body so we actually feel safe in our body. How do you feel safe in your body in a world that's so traumatizing, that's been so abusive, that has so much dissociation. Healing trauma. So all of a sudden we are this great Avengers group of Lightworkers that's doing what in order to bridge dimensions. We're healing our trauma, we're healing our relationships with our parents, we're healing our relationships with our partners or ex-partners. We're learning how to be better parents to our children. We're learning how to be better parents to our inner children. It all comes down to that, which is why when we are in spiritual community, it's so important to pray together, to meditate together, to do healing work on each other in ways that are deeply miraculous, and at the same time to talk to each other about our personal pains, to chat as friends, to be able to call each other late at night when we're worried about something or when we need a pick me up or when we need to be reminded of who we are because we're having a really hard time. It's in the basic everyday stuff as much as it's in the stuff that looks shiny, it's in being a good friend. It's in learning how to deal with our painful emotions, learning how to handle and see through and heal our limiting beliefs. So what do we need to land this spaceship, right? To actually get our feet on the ground, to be able to be the portals that we are, but here, not in spiritual bypass, not in some magical, esoteric plane but not actually being able to bring those frequencies into where they need to be? We are grounded. Now being grounded, some people who love esoteric stuff are like, ah, that's not fun. You know, the most grounded person I've ever met, Amma- Mata Amritanandamayi. Amma is also the most heavenly being I have ever, ever met in physical form. This stuff is not a binary. It's a binary to most of us because we are not enlightened yet. But to the enlightened being, to the being who is the true portal, Amma, I've never seen anyone who's more of a portal than her. Because there's no human there. There's only God in a physical body who hugs people. That is a full portal. Someone who's"everywhere and here" as my dear one and late teacher, Annalisa Adelberg used to to love to say"everywhere. And here". So how do we find ground center and heart? How do we care for our emotional body? Our mental body? Our energetic body? Our spiritual nature, everything that helps us feel so alive within the ineffable? How do we live an integrated, embodied spirituality? What skills do we need? What skills for conflict resolution? What skills for intimacy and relational connection? What psychological skills? What skills for self-healing? What skills do we need to truly open and receive during prayer and meditation? concentration meditation, breath meditation, energetic practices. How can we become available to truly trust enough to surrender, as we say we truly want to do? How can we have the willpower and the strength and the resilience to deal with the world's pains and challenges, to deal with the pains and challenges in our own life right now, to deal with whatever pains and challenges might come up in the future? How can we clean ourselves up so that we can keep walking? How can we clean ourselves up so that we're able to receive healing? How can we clean ourselves up so that we can receive guidance to move forward from those on the inner planes who are here waiting for us to listen so that they can actually help us? It comes down to all of those things. It comes down to educating ourselves. It comes down to receiving healing. It comes down to learning self-healing. This is why I care so much about teaching people self-healing skills. We gotta do this for ourselves. This is a daily need. This isn't something like, oh, now I'm not feeling good. I'm gonna go see my healing practitioner. This is something that we need to know how to do ourselves. This is a basic life skill. Self-healing is a basic life skill that we all need in the global environment that we all live in. It's like if you live in a cold place, you need a jacket. If you live in a world that is this tough, you need to know how to warm yourself up. What does a community of people who are all dedicated to the spiritual path in an authentic way truly feel like, and how can it be of deep support for those who are in the group as well as for the world? How can we be strengthened by each other? How can we be strengthened by the God field that comes through when we all listen with one shared heart, to the great heart awaiting our opening? How can we learn and practice skills together? How can we know that we belong to something greater, even as we walk the streets of our life on our own? How can we have this resonant field across beings and dimensions that we feel ourselves plugged into, that we can feel this pulse of home within, so that even when we get off kilter, we don't lose that deeper signal, that deeper resonance field that we know that we're a part of? How can we get up more easily when we fall down? How can we walk with greater courage towards the compassionate and generous work that we are here to do with the world, both big and small? How can we become better family members, better parents, caregivers to the elderly, better neighbors, more generous givers to the poor, and those in need? How can we courageously give our gifts that we know we are here to give? What is a life like when we are in our center, in our heart, focused on that which is most important to us, and feeling how supported we are in doing so? Who are we able to be and what are we able to offer? How are we able to live when we are together in this way, in this togetherness within the self, self with self, self with each other, and self with God as God? Allowing oneself to be an emanation as the human being that we are, going through what we're going through, walking down the street, feeling messy, everything everywhere all at once, all happening. So because of everything that I've mentioned here, I feel a very deep call and I'm following that call to bring together a group of spiritual practitioners into a group program. It's gonna be online as well as in person, where we connect in the reality of being the we together in the reality of shared global spiritual sangha in the reality of integrated spirituality in daily life, where we have community mutuality, shared reality, reflection of who we truly are and knowing ourselves as the we rather than as the me. We are together here we are in mutual support and we are moving forward knowing that we do this together. That's the community piece. Then there's the global sangha piece. This is global. This is knowing how to connect across cultures. Global doesn't mean gajillions of people who don't know each other. Global means those who are living within cultures that seem far away from each other on the surface when we connect, there's that intimacy of the one shared heart and so we can share God together, whatever God is to you. I keep always having to give this disclaimer whenever I say God, whatever God is to you, why do I say that? For no one to get stuck in the linguistics of things, and that's the whole point here. When we come together as global community, we are speaking the one shared language of divinity together through the multiplicity of languages that we have together. It's a multi lineage space. It's a multi lineage togetherness. So that's the second point. And then the third point is how do we actually live the spirituality that is so important to us in a real way, this isn't theory. This is what the world is requiring of us to get through what we need to get through as a collective in order to actually have hope and bring hope to what's on the other side of this whole mess. We are here to help the collective. Get through this difficulty by being what is on the other side already. That is what the world is asking of us, needing of us. That is what our true purpose is asking of us. That is what life is calling us into being The integrated, embodied, spiritual person in order to allow for, in order to co-create an integrated, embodied, spiritual world. Again, what does the word spiritual mean here? It means a world of unconditional love. This is the invitation. If you're interested, if this calls to you, please reach out to me and let's talk about this group program. If you feel called to being a part of this shared web of togetherness, that is what this group is for. This is a place of community, of shared spirituality across cultures and of embodied, integrated spirituality in daily life. This is a place of being who you really are and feeling strengthened. A place where you fall down, you get back up a place where you get tired, you get refueled. A place where you start losing yourself within all of the messiness that's going on, and you kind of forget who you are, a place where you're reflected and brought back to your center. this is something very multidimensional and multi lifetime.
