Compassion – Our Greatest Gift from the Spiritual Realm

By Peter Smith, Certified LBL Hypnotherapist

I spent some time reflecting on the subject of “compassion” as our theme for this edition of “Stories of the Afterlife.” In fact, I started with the very human meaning of the word and, as we so often do these days, I “Googled it”. This is one of the definitions I found:

“Compassion involves allowing ourselves to be moved by suffering, and experiencing the motivation to help alleviate and prevent it. An act of compassion is defined by its helpfulness. Qualities of compassion are patience and wisdom; kindness and perseverance; warmth and resolve.” (Wikipedia.com)

As I read these positive words, as I feel them and what they offer, I am left a little dissatisfied given what I have experienced as compassion when it comes to the energy of the spiritual realm.

In short, what I have observed in clients and even felt in my own LBL sessions over the years, is a level of compassion that transcends the human experience of the emotion and takes it into a blend of unconditional love, eternal wisdom and sacred union with other souls.

We live in a world that is permeated with fear, separation and judgement, though in LBL the immortal reframe of these chronic conditions of humanity offers us the most wonderful opportunity to see ourselves through the eyes of our own soul. In that simple act, we are transported into a new vibration where we see fear as a learning experience, separation as a myth and judgement as an illusion. We are set free in a way that allows us to have the utmost compassion for ourselves in human form. How freeing it is to observe a troubled life through our immortal eyes and breathe that sigh of relief rather than feeling battered and bruised; we have shown incredible courage to face the challenges placed before us and prevailed! To see traumatic circumstances as merely the evolution of our soul takes compassion for this human form to a whole new level.

Though it doesn’t stop there, and to my mind, Michael’s life’s work carries four powerful aspects that support this energy of what I’ll call compassion from spirit.

Firstly, we experience this from our guides and advanced beings that support our journey across lifetimes. We see the tears flowing from a client who is in the energy of reunion with their spiritual guide as they leave a past lifetime. We see many lives of difficulty released before a Council of wise beings as a long-sought lesson is finally completed. All beings in the soul realm demonstrate and advocate for this loving compassion from spirit. It elevates not just the client, but the LBL facilitator as well.

Secondly, and further to the point made above, LBL facilitators have the opportunity to see every soul in their chair as a spiritual being having a human experience. To hold this knowing “carries a sacred trust” as Michael referred to it, though it does so much more. It means that a client is held in the presence of someone who sees them for who they really are, possibly for the first time in their life. An LBL facilitator can see through the disguise of human form into the eternal being before them, and then takes the client on a journey to connect with that immortal essence that dwells within.

Thirdly, by making the soul accessible to our human selves, we are able to bring through this compassion from spirit into our lives and the lives of those around us. This ripples out in the collective consciousness of us all. What a planet this would be if we all embraced this energy on a daily basis. Imagine over 7 billion souls, feeling the compassion from spirit every day and offering it to others. It is indeed possible, as we are spiritual beings traversing a physical landscape. Whilst something over 50,000 souls have felt this through the course of the history of LBL sessions, we may still have a little while to go before we hit critical mass. However, rest assured that we are moving towards it.

Finally, we see this compassion from spirit in the traveller souls who have come to Earth at this time. These souls who are more familiar with other planets and dimensions have come to share their specific vibration to assist with the evolution of human consciousness. There seems to be a trend across the universal realms of consciousness that those who are further ahead in their evolution seek to help those who are wanting to progress. We see this as a natural state of being for all life, whether it be these traveller souls, our guides and helpers or even a philanthropic energy that we see offered on Earth from time to time.

Over the years I have come to know that this compassion from spirit is the unwritten currency of the spiritual realm. It permeates every interaction there, every free will decision and is embraced by all beings. Michael Newton showed us that we are those beings and therefore that same compassion is already ours, just waiting to be remembered. ♦
