We have all had those days when we sit, ponder, and take stock. When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before.
I had one such deep, ‘taking stock’ moment the other day on a beautiful London morning, reflecting on where I had come from and everything that I had come to within myself, the paths that I had walked and the choices I have made.
We all have been there – embroiled and enmeshed in life, constantly juggling, struggling, wiggling and more often than not whinging our way through life’s roads.
In fact, as I pondered and watched life pass me by outside the window of my neighborhood coffee shop in the early hours of the morning, I could feel and sense the busy-ness and the heaviness of how everyone starts their morning: already weary, fatigued, bone-tired and yet trudging along, forcing themselves to get out there. This is how it starts for most of humanity, anywhere and everywhere across the world.
How sad it is then that we have lost our inner essence, our flow. We have chosen to disconnect from our ‘mojo’, that inner joy that emanates all day long leaving us feeling bouncy and light on our path, if only we would allow it.
It always made me wonder why we as a human race are not choosing this, and instead, are so rushed, so exhausted and so lost.
For me, as I felt deeply that morning, I could sense how far I had come in terms of being responsible – responsible not just for myself, my behaviours, my patterns, and my hurts, but also responsible for how I reflect that responsibility back to the rest of humanity, who may yet struggle to walk their true path.
A path, that I have been shown in recent times, by those who have chosen to walk it.
A path that allows me to unfold at my own pace and holds me in grace with each step.
A path that is making me more and more aware with each moment.
A path that has made me deeply, consciously aware of the places I come from, the many, many lives I have lived before, the wisdom that I carry, and the myriad of beautiful experiences that are my learnings.
A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’
And most amongst us would scratch our heads wondering what is Energetic Responsibility? Energetic Responsibility from what I have now come to understand is simple and yet so very magical. How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that, and this is something that opened my eyes to a far larger view of the world than the previously narrow view, which was mostly focused on the self.
It’s like we know it but we choose to not be aware of it because it feels like too much for us to handle. The truth of it all is not out there, but watching us silently from deep within the recesses of our core. A place within; where we know we are all deeply, intrinsically connected, just as the stars and the planets and the galaxies form a part of the whole in the skies up above.
So it’s definitely no coincidence that I ‘chanced’ upon becoming aware of my true path – I was always meant to sooner, or later, just like the rest of us who have, or will, at some point in time do the same.
But for me it was like I have been preparing all my life to get here; something deep inside of me was always pulsing, magnetically pulling me towards this truth no matter how much or how far I ran from that feeling.
E=MC2 is an equation that always grabbed me as a young physics student. I always felt the connection of that universal equation; that connection that Einstein himself had felt.
I immersed myself in reading about quantum physics, metaphysics, enjoying the science fiction stories of Isaac Asimov, Star Wars and Star Trek, the fantasy trips in my head about spaceships and what kind of energy powered them, life on other planets, the martial arts and how ancient masters tapped into energy. All of it!
The word ‘energy’ always turned me ON!
I always felt that the Equation E=MC2 was an ‘Equation that Equalises All of Life’, and this was confirmed when I came upon Serge Benhayon’s quote: “Everything is Energy; therefore Everything is because of Energy!” It was powerful to just feel into those words, the vastness that it expands us into.
If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?
I now have chosen to understand that everything is energy and I now choose to talk about it; I choose to be aware at each step and with each breath as a result of having met Serge Benhayon.
Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime, it brought home the understanding that this path of energetic responsibility is not something that I can dilly dally with, flirt with, have an affair with or delay anymore.
I knew it was time to re-commit my entire being-ness deeply to this path. It was time to journey back to live what is true. Little did I know that I would be challenged in ways that I had never known. Walking this path would bring out the stuff that I had been carrying all the more – the angst, the pain, and the arrogance, like some ‘badge of honour’.
It felt like I was loaded and heavy and my deep, inner, tender essence had been covered for eons, the spark of which I had only glimpsed in moments through my present life.
I was now able to understand how I had been living a lie up until that point and how I had been offered a much truer and freer way of being.
My understanding of how energetic responsibility affects my life’s choices has been life changing for me. This path that I am now on keeps teaching and reflecting unto me the illusionary and fleeting nature of all life and yet reveals the magic of it all as it unfolds, which I now know is far beyond any material riches that I may ever have aspired to.
This path of being energetically responsible is beyond any emotional excitement I felt with any of the extreme adventure sports that I indulged in. It offers a strong steadiness that I always knew was laying within, waiting for me to come back to. It’s as if for the first time ever, All of MY Awareness is coming alive in my body with each choice I am making.
Profound words from Serge Benhayon in his book, ‘Time, Space and all of us, Book 1 – Time‘, came in the form of a powerful statement that brings home this fact for us all:
“We would be wise to know that the first evolutionary peak that humanity is returning to is awareness, and in particular, one of energetic awareness. We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.” (Chapter 10, page 291)
Thus this lesson, this path for me, is not only for this life, it’s beyond life and yet it keeps showing me how to stay committed to life.
And guess what? With this commitment comes the connection to the divine order that moves us all, the order that moves the universe in its rhythmic and loving pulse that also flows through me as I tread lovingly and gently each moment I am on this path.
And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This in turn accelerates me towards where I was always meant to be.
And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility…
In deep gratitude always to Serge Benhayon who has been my mentor, my elder brother, my very old friend and who has reflected pure divinity at all times. And the gorgeous Sara Williams for assisting in chipping away my falsities to reach the fiery diamond within through those amazingly powerful healing sessions and interactions.

Everything is energy, is a fact that has been accepted as truth for many years but is it really ever considered? When Serge Benhayon expanded on this Einstein fact by bringing through the theory that if everything is indeed energy, then “Everything has to be because of energy”. After that, my life changed, began to expand understanding my responsibility on this earth, in my actions movements and words

“A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’” Beautifully expressed Chetan. As young ones we are taught – and teach – about consequences, but energetic responsibility takes this to a whole new level.
And so begins the deep and humbling experience of living with energetic responsibility… And yes it is indeed profound and deep, and by its very nature humbling… The universe indeed all the universes are so vast, and we are all interconnected… There can be really no doubt as to what we are here to do.
Appreciating our own unfolding as ‘Every reflection is a learning and it is for us to observe deeper’ the consequences of each movement.
Chetan you write like the universe. Expansive, holding, with love, deep understanding, compassion, humour, playfulness and bang on the money truth. Thank you, it was a joy to read this morning.
The way that we live our life is something that we’re communicating with each other all the time – we all offer each other a reflection of what is possible and the quality of that reflection can either inspire us to be more of who we truly are or to walk in opposition to that essence…
I welcome energetic responsibility being the norm for humanity, everything we do has a ripple effect, ‘How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that’.
This is an exquisite piece of writing Chetan. Thank you for you words of truth filled with the love we are all from.
Energetic responsibility is our willingness to align our movements to that, which is from soul.
It is humbling to know we are one of many souls on the path of return in line with that soul, and that at the same time the one of many that we are is equal to all the other souls, all also on their path of return.
Chetan I loved this line about “the myriad of beautiful experiences that are my learnings.” And there has been many life after life. I have been pondering on what a treasure I am, how much I have learned and how much wisdom I have unfolded, yet I don’t hold my being and body as preciously as I need to. It’s so important to appreciate ourselves and all we hold and bring to humanity, and in that appreciation deepen our value and the way we treat ourselves.
Deeply precious are the moments of “mistakes” they open up a deeper space and humbleness for us to embody more that we are multidimensional. There is no perfection but we have asked to deepen and to strengthen the choice of understanding the science of life.
Stunning Chetan, understanding energetic responsibility is a huge step for mankind… you have shown it is not so hard at all and very well worth it for all.
We have made life about survival and about self, so our movements are in a constant drive to get more and more done only to end up in the exhaustion, resentment and need to check out we experience today. This is totally different when we make life about purpose of what needs to be done and the constant appreciation of what is that we are here to reflect to the humanity in order to be more of who we truly are. It is so simple and yet the difference is astronomically when we meet life with a true purpose for all.
Yes I have also always loved the word energy… energetic responsibility takes it all to a new level
Yes Chetan, having energetic responsibility, takes the way we live life to a whole new level.
Absolutely Debra, a deeper level of awareness that we are far more than the physical but in truth multidimensional.
To come to the understanding that life is “not about perfection, it’s about unfolding”, is like being offered another opportunity to start life all over again; at least that’s what it felt like for me. Gone with the expectations that usually ended in tears and gone was the weight that I needed to present a perfect face to the world. It was like taking a great big sigh of relief that was quickly followed a joy that bubbled up from within, touching every particle of my being as it did.
This is so gorgeous Chetan, you have captured the very essence that lives within us all. Calling us all to re awaken and take claim to the living impulse that is within. Walking every step on this earth with energetic awareness and responsibility, re-imprinting our cyclic path calling all brothers to stand and claim their light.
Energetic responsibility – the next giant step for humanity.
I love that Elizabeth, there is a bumper sticker in that.
The comforts of certain lifestyles are not so innocent – in fact, they can be super addictive and ultimately distract us from understanding energy and how everything works. We can see some do not know any better as they continue to live the same – checked out from life and indulging in their sense… but many do know better, many have the awareness that there is more going on, yet continue to choose otherwise. So there is something else going on, something that is driving the want to not know about energy and the truths of life.
I was explaining how I was discovering more layers of lack of self worth with a friend and then she reminded me of how even just last year I had been hiding so as not to stand out and I realised I was not appreciating how far I had come. Appreciating myself for the way I have changed and am still open to changing more and seeing how this is reflected in the joy I have refound, and am continuing to find, in life is very precious.
The path I tread is not just for me… there are others that have come before me that show me the way, and then some that follow in my footsteps, more sure in their moves because the path has become that little bit clearer, wider, simpler. I walk the path with great reverence for all that is.
Beautifully expressed Simon – the fact of energy is apparent in how we move through life now, then and forevermore.
The combination of walking a non judgemental path with that of taking responsibility for every choice that we make is magical and so enriching.
Absolutely Elizabeth, the non-judgemental part is so important, because none of us are perfect, but simply students of ourselves and life. Then with humbleness we can accept that our stumbles and stuff ups are simply opportunities to learn.
Thank you Chetan, it is through energetic awareness that we can be honest of the extent of the mess we live in in the world today, and of our responsibility to re-imprint and offer a reflection of a new way of living that develops trust for the world who desperately needs it.
Energetic Responsibility makes us be the part of the whole we truly and in fact are; it is a claiming of our undeniable reality and delivers more than we could ever imagine. It is not a burden or something to shy away from but a continual unfolding of the gloriousness we already are.
To be able to accept and appreciate the imperfections and the falters as part of the unfolding path that in a way reveal more of what we need to discard to uncover that diamond underneath feels like such a crucial step to me in this path.
To begin ‘chipping away at my falsities’ has been the most challenging, embarrassing and humbling experience that has brought so much more love, steadiness and grace to how I live life. All of which are forever expanding and becoming not just words, but a way of life.
It is indeed very strange that we choose to disconnect from our ‘mojo’ when we have a mega-magnifient-mojo eternally within just waiting for us to connect.
I have always known that what we do effects everyone but did not take that on board and become really responsible about it in a big way until studying with Universal Medicine. I am still learning to drop old ways of being that do not serve me or anyone else and I shall, no doubt, be refining this process till the day I die. This means that I am becoming lighter and have more love in my body as the years go by and so I have the potential of bringing more love and light to wherever I am and truly contributing to the energetic quality in the world.
Great point that you make here Chetan that the more we live with energetic responsibility the more awareness and understanding we have of what is occurring in our lives. A simple but powerful and profound equation.
“…something deep inside of me was always pulsing, magnetically pulling me towards this truth no matter how much or how far I ran from that feeling.”
Beautiful Chetan – you remind me that everyone feels this tension and knows the truth.
I love moments when I stop and take stock of everything I have chosen up to this point, obviously I am not perfect and there have been some major blips but there is always so much to deeply appreciate. I find the more I do this the deeper I am then able to go within myself as I have now essentially set and confirmed a new bench mark. Otherwise if I do not take stock I find it easy to get caught up in life and find old disregarding patterns coming back into my life.
This is a great sharing Chetan. In your words “Lesson for Life and Beyond”. We are responsible for our own learning and need to trust our inner most and not look outside ourselves for the answers.
‘And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility’. Chetan, the honour and joy you feel is delicious and expansive – thank you for sharing your amazing light.
Energetic awareness holds the key for us all
I have been walking around a city the last couple of days and have really noticed the rush, the down trodden or tense body language and the emptiness in the eyes that seems so normal. And I recognised myself in those patterns and I realised the healing and inspiration that I can provide to others when I bring the joy and lightness of being that is our common elemental essence.
very true Andrew. We are all beacons of light in a world filled with illusionary fog
Beautifully said andrewmooney26 – the other day I felt great but saw many miserable faces on my way to work. It wasn’t long before I began to feel miserable too. The key for me is to stay connected, keep feeling and observe. When I do this I am less likely to take on other people’s emotions.
Wow this is eye opening and true. How we have been carrying our own wounds, and not letting it heal by denying to take that thing called: responsibility. Thanks Chetan for your lovely light
Discovering energetic responsibility is like waking from a dream. You suddenly realise how everything you do, say and think affects everything else. We get this about the natural world, yet when we are in our man made fog, we think we are somehow exempt and separate from this. Once re-discovered you know there is no way to turn back from energetic integrity and you know that it is for you to live in a way that reminds others to wake up too
This is a great observation that during the early hours of the morning, humanity (and I know I myself do as well) makes a shift Into the heaviness of the day, where is the flow? And we go out to ‘do’ things but leave the being behind.
Our unfolding path; “a path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.”
What you have expressed here Chetam is the key to life, that being a forever deepening of our lived Energetic Responsibility.
‘If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?’ Great point Chetan, why do we ignore this truth when it can support us to be more accepting and build our awareness around the grandness and oneness we are all truly from.
It is incredible how we are deliberately choosing to ignore the one thing that can explain everything about life.
The levels of truth that come with understanding and living with energetic integrity often leads us on a path of understanding that ‘comfort’ (the old ways) no matter how alluring it is, still leaves us feeling that something this missing.
Connecting to our essence is a movement within our own unique rhythm of our lives. It is here where we will see the true power and purpose we all hold in this vast universal world.
Thank you Chetan, living in energetic responsibility is very exposing of the truth, and of the way we live that deviates away from that truth even if we call it a “norm”. No matter what words we use, the truth is in the energy, so feeling the energy supports us all to come back to living from the truth. I appreciated this line also “I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding” and allowing every moment to be as it is. We miss out on the little miracles of our love emerging if we have expectation of ourselves to look and be a certain way, even within a very challenging and difficult time where we think we are making many mistakes something quite grand can be unfolding. It’s good to stop and appreciate without any expectations.
I have felt this greatly in the past few months. The path I have chosen that does not judge me but waits patiently and will the most deepest levels of respect and care for when I am ready to take on the next level of love that is on offer for me to offer another. That is a great way to ponder. Thank you!
Not taking responsibility for how I was in the world, feeling like I was a helpless victim, blaming others for my misery and walking around saying that I don’t have a choice was an incredibly self destructive way to live – make that, exist. That’s how I used to live but no longer as I now know that my life and the quality of it is my responsibility and in every single moment I have a choice and the choice that I make is mine and mine alone; I am growing to truly love this responsible way of living.
Energetic Responsibility is the biggest of wake-up calls for us as a race. Especially as one enters the world of the ‘adult’ a young person becomes exposed to all kinds of now permissible behaviours that wreak havoc on the body and on our lives and the lives of others. How perverse is that! Thank God for Serge Benhayon who has so brilliantly stopped us in our tracks – tracks towards destruction – and called for energetic responsisbility.
A beautiful blog to read Chetan and an absolutely gorgeous and divine path to walk, thank you;
“A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.”
You have changed my morning and every morning forever more Chetan so thank you for writing it. I remembered that line from Time, Space and All of Us book you quoted it and love the fact that it just makes sense. Without awareness we are lost, without taking time to understand what our body and the awareness from our body is sharing with us, we are also lost. I feel like I have been reminded of the only way to live life – with an understanding of energy and how it is part and parcel of every moment, the awarenss of what I choose results in energetic awareness and then my choices found energetic responsibility.
Thank you Chetan, I appreciated this line “All of MY Awareness is coming alive in my body with each choice I am making.” This is so very true for me too and so beautiful to read these words and appreciate this process of my own awareness coming alive again. Every expansion of awareness is a celebration – it truly feels amazing.
‘We all have been there – embroiled and enmeshed in life, constantly juggling, struggling, wiggling and more often than not whinging our way through life’s roads.’ HA! I love the whinging bit…I was such a whinger before realising that I was only whinging because of the choices only I was making, over and over again.
Chetan the stillness and love that emanates from your blog was gorgeous to feel while reading. You write for the many brothers who walk the path back to love. Loved it, thank you.
I love the way you write Chetan. You remind me that nothing we do can truly be hidden from anyone. Not even our thoughts. I am also reminded that I am not the true creator of anything. All that I express comes through me and the quality of what expresses through me is determined by my choices.
What struck me today was the passage where you write about “the fleeting nature” of all physical life and how much we can dig our heels in, defending this creation at all costs and propping it up with arrogance and pride. It hasn’t worked – and what have we got to lose?
“…when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.” This is the most wonderful statement… A revelation that is so exciting and paves the way for humanity to bring itself out of the awful mess that it is in , into the extraordinary vibrant abrasion place we could be
I happened to have a birds eye view of a square in a city recently and I observed people walking through and across it, in groups and alone…I choose to feel the quality of the movements, not where they where going or why…what I felt was generally a heaviness, like a plodding life not a lightness in movement…I wondered about this duty so many of us feel to get somewhere and do something, rather than simply enjoying being us first and then living and doing from that place.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” – Energy is the foundation of everything, so if something goes ‘wrong’, then we can waste our time looking for all kinds of explanations, but in the end the explanation will not be complete if we do not consider first the Energy that was involved and what caused it in the first place.
Thank you Chetan, sometimes we can think of being responsible as a burden we must undertake in life, but as you have shared energetic responsibility offers us an opportunity to break away from the illusions of life and take charge of the way we meet life not as the recipients of something but as the creators of truth and love and the simplicity and joy we get to experience as a result.
‘How sad it is then that we have lost our inner essence, our flow. We have chosen to disconnect from our ‘mojo’, that inner joy that emanates all day long leaving us feeling bouncy and light on our path, if only we would allow it.It always made me wonder why we as a human race are not choosing this, and instead, are so rushed, so exhausted and so lost’.
It is sad that we have lost our joy Chetan. And why do we choose that, you ask? For myself I always had quite a strong joy factor but I could not summon it at will when it wasn’t there. I did not know how to. A beautiful example of ‘how to’ was demonstrated last night at a Sacred Movement class last night. We had to do a simple movement while focusing entirely on our own bodies and not calibrate with our partner in any way , not move into their speed of movement. It was not before long and most of us were laughing with joy simply because we were entirely focused on our own body! We would lose it intermittent and feel ‘ordinary’ or bored for a while but then we could choose to come back to the body. Very simple!
Your Observation Chetan about how most of the world start their day is important – already dreading and dragging the day ahead, this clearly doesn’t make sense but it is a reality, and recognising that we have the power to show a different way, a spark that blows the negativity out of the water is very powerful!
Choosing to live with energetic responsibility is choosing to live with love. It’s yummy, amazing, sure it can be confronting but in a way that always asks you to be more of the real you, the amazing exquisite you that is lurking beneath the layers of irresponsibility we have taken on.
There is being inspired by those who are already walking the path knowing that we too are the same and allowing ourselves the grace to unfold as we go and then there is the humility to be there, to see it all, knowing there is no end and that we’re a part of it all. Thank you Chetan for what you’ve written here, you remind me of both the bigness of God and the Universe and that we have huge support as we walk.
I have come to know how priceless those “ponder, and take stock” moments are especially if they include, as they have lately, the knowing that “We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is”. This is one undeniable life changing truth that Serge Benhayon has presented and that you have felt to share. How incredible to finally understand that the mind that we have been raised to believe is the most intelligent part of us actually isn’t – that honour goes to our body. Now that turns life as we have been living it upside down and back to the way it truly can be.
Well said Ingrid, turning it all on its head! The body rocks our world 🙂 Those moments are indeed priceless, they are the best investment in our life we can make – our body’s pension!
I am inspired by the way you claim it Chetan, for indeed everything is energy and everything is because of energy and people are waking up to this fact and talking about it more as we all do feel it. Although lots of people are talking about energy, it’s getting all the spiritual nonsense out of the way and feeling the true energy of the Soul that will put us on the true path once again.
Thank you Kev- for in being inspired and in acknowledging that – we are in deep service to Soul always!
Taking stock, appreciating where one is at is a great activity for cycles of repose where we confirm us. Walking in appreciation of where we are at is also a great way to offset the tendency to walk in regret of the fact that we are not somewhere else and to realise that to be somewhere else we have to take stock, appreciate and confirm us, among other things.
The way in which we take stock of our life or of a situation or event makes a big difference – we can bring judgement and condemnation on ourselves and/ or others, choose to see what we want to see or we can be truly honest with ourselves and open to feeling all that is there for us to feel…
The real beauty of energetic responsibility is that our movements that are made here and now can greatly change our configuration of movements thereafter. Another point to ponder is that our movements and rhythms also highlight that the energetic vibrations will also see us make choices that will inevitably see out our lives and the lives we have thereafter. Energetic responsibility is very cool.
Thanks Chetan this is a great blog and brings me back to the fact that everything is because of energy. I read this straight after having a conversation where I explained someone had a fall but the first thing I looked at was how did that practically happen rather than what was the energy at play here. So reading your blog brought me back to the importance of this and in that I knew instantly why this person had a fall. Pretty amazing.
‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’ And what a wake up call that was for me when first meeting Serge Benhayon and listening to what he was presenting. Life changing to say the least and yes, firmly connecting us to our real purpose in the world, to reflect our immutable divinity via our choice of energetic impulse – an energy that comes direct from God or an energy that has been manipulated by mankind.
Very very beautiful I feel the universe and the fact that I am a part of it, that we all are, reading this today, what a very gorgeous gift. Thank you Chetan.
thanks Monica- for it’s the Otherworldliness that brings us our Wholeness…
For a long time I had a misconception of what responsibility meant. It not only felt like to accept responsibility meant to take on the burden of something, but it meant that I needed to control it. To me, being responsible meant that I needed to impose my will upon life so that it was as I deemed it was supposed to be. But the truth in responsibility is that of energetic responsibility, and that we are responsible for how we energetically present ourselves to the world. That responsibility is to be truthful to the best of our ability, to present the truth of who we are.
The day will come when we all wake up to the fact of energetic responsibility and remember why we are here and why we are not supposed to be here. Having insight into what stops us evolving by not choosing energetic responsibility is a great gift that is available to all who are ready to take the plunge.
Truly connecting to life and all that takes place is huge – once you begin to realise the enormity of life and what is taking place in every cell of your body as you go about your day you realise the falsity of the life you have been living. When I feel the expansion and deepening that comes as I daily chip away at all those ideals and beliefs that up until now have been my focus I realise that I am making space to connect and feel the vibrations of the Universe.
It is truly beautiful to come to place where you recognize that life is a commitment to an order far grander than ourselves, within which we unfold more of ourselves through a loving and steady commitment to the all through each choice and movement we make towards that. A truly stunning and deeply rewarding way to live.
I love those exquisite moments “…when we sit, ponder, and take stock. When time literally stands still for us’…for me those moments are priceless, full of light, full of life and full of the answers to all the questions I have ever asked, and am yet to ask…. and what I love more than anything is that I know now that these moments don’t have to be just once in a while but all the time; each and every moment has the potential to be exquisite.
The very basic concept that we are all connected and everything that we do impacts all around us, is so often not reflected in the choices that people make in their day to day living. It can bring so much joy to feel how the tiniest of things support another.
‘But for me it was like I have been preparing all my life to get here; something deep inside of me was always pulsing, magnetically pulling me towards this truth no matter how much or how far I ran from that feeling’. This is the grace of God Chetan, that how ever far we run away and stray from our truth there is always the magnetic pull of evolution communicating to our responding particles. It is joyful moment when we say ‘yes’ and begin our journey back home and great to read your story.
Energetic responsibility, by understanding and embracing this in full supports our return to harmony, brotherhood and love-God.
Energetic responsibility was a path I avoided most of my life until I met Serge Benhayon and his integrity, deep wisdom and immense love reflected to me that these same qualities were equally in me as well, all I needed to do was to make a different choice and begin my return back home.
The graciousness of life is just that gracious. Many would argue that our existence in it is so far form that point, and I have definitely had that experience. I have also had the opportunity to feel something so lovely that it was worth saying no to drugs and alcohol and caffeine and many other things that I realised made it harder for me to connect this graciousness. I still find a million reasons not to go there on a daily basis but at least I have realised that humanity and I have a choice
It’s common to see these ‘taking stock’ moments you describe Chetan, as taking a break from life. But what if we have this around the wrong way? What if these moments free from time are the moments we really live? And all the busyness and overload is a distraction from that divine flow? The more I feel this in my day the more I get to see the deadlines and barriers I perceive are simply not concrete or real. What is true is the Love I can connect to. Anytime, anywhere we can take stock and feel the beauty that is there. It really is this easy. Thank you brother.
When words are formed in this way, with a beauty and graceful elegance, they are able to resonate to our core, and indeed alight again that spark that always dwells within.
Thank you Chris! Deeply appreciated..
I too am learning to accept, allow and appreciate as I walk this path, such an important part of my choices and evolution.
When ‘we have chosen to disconnect from our ‘mojo’, that inner joy that emanates all day long leaving us feeling bouncy and light on our path,’ everyone else around us also misses out on the inspiration that that joy and lightness of being can bless us with.
thank you Annie
beautiful honesty Rosalie as always!
thank you Katerina
Absolutely Kathleen..and yet its not about me or Serge – its about the ALL in all this
thank you Jill
I agree, I used to think of responsibility as being heavy, serious and a chore! But wow, what a freedom taking responsibility is. It is a true joy to remember how to live from the gem that is inside us and honour others by being true to that in all our relationships.
I love how it feels like coming home. It is about chipping away at the outside shell to let ourselves feel the gem we have been protecting from the world. How many of us have been protecting gems – and are we truly in relationship with each other if we are in relationship with a whole load of protective shells on?!
Great question Lucy!
Learning to live with energetic responsibility is the most important thing to get on with as the more people that learn this way of living, the more will be inspired to live this way. I have not found this an easy path, I feel I make it a lot harder than it needs to be but I am always inspired by the people that are doing it for real.
Yes Kev it’s anything but easy and hence it’s more than worth it..
One of the keys you have raised here is that we choose to separate from our essence, from our ‘mojo’ – and for me once I have done this then I am always trying to be something I am not. So the only way is return and surrender back to my essence and then move forward from there. Trying to get back somewhere or get somewhere has never worked for me and is a very exhausting process!
Allow Accept and Appreciate James
And confirm and enjoy. You are a gem Chetan.
Responsibility is one that we can tend to dance around not wanting to fully go there and live it, we tend to have conditions on life and what we want from it. Responsibility has nothing to do with ourselves and everything to do with the grander picture, and honouring all that we are.
‘And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility,’ which is an awareness that I feel is deepening the more honest I become. I relate to and love so much of what you have shared Chetan.
thank you Greg
“And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This in turn accelerates me towards where I was always meant to be.” Even when I falter it is a consequence of my choices. When I remember and accept this instead of reacting and blaming someone or something then unfoldment takes place.
“And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility” – it is deeply humbling to once again commit to energetic responsibility because it exposes how we have, up to this point being living energetically speaking a wayward life, full of irresponsibility and not considering the All that needs to be considered.
Yes, it is very humbling to accept that until one accepts energetic responsibility one has been irresponsible, however much one has believed one has been responsible.
It so lovely to feel that this path is one we have walked before and there is always support available when we make the choice to return to who we truly are.
‘Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime’ And the extra-ordinariness of Serge Benhayon is he inspires us all to know we too can move in ways that offer the highest reflection to all we meet.
‘Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime, it brought home the understanding that this path of energetic responsibility is not something that I can dilly dally with, flirt with, have an affair with or delay anymore.’ The depth of commitment and inspiration that is there for us all, is deeply felt by what you’ve shared here Chetan – and it really does show everyone, that this can be for anyone. It is simply a matter of choice – of choosing to let go of the miasma and re-connect to the knowing we all have that true joy and a loving life can indeed be claimed and lived.
Agreed Katerina, and just as another showed us it is possible, we have the ability and indeed the responsibility to be that in reflection for another.
“How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect” . . . on everything and every one. We fool ourselves that we get away with the energy we are in by not meeting people’s eyes or by smiling nicely and saying all the right things but the truth is we all feel every thing whether we want to acknowledge it or not and energetically nothing is ‘got away with’. Energetic Responsibility is the only way we can move toward the harmony of true brotherhood as a humanity that knows itself to be more than just flesh and bone.
A lesser way of living is to never stop and have those reflective stock take moments. In the drive of the day, week and month we so often don’t just stop. The stop moment is our right to have the space we need to develop ourselves through reflection.
Ahh why do we not naturally choose a path of energetic responsibility? Perhaps we are all still too invested in creating our own individuality rather than feeling the energetic whole we are a part of.
Thank you Kehinde and yes it’s all very simply magical..
Magical and True Alchemy – Vicky!
Absolutely Alex!
Hey Stephen- the last sentence on your comment here is simply the brilliant Truth of all things! It takes immense courage to take responsibility..
Yes Julie! Its forever expanding.
What is fascinating is the fact that responsibility is more than just a term we can bandy round in a legal sense and hold some one to be accountable to. It is so much more and it is actually a physical science especially when we consider it on an energetic level. Basically our choices are moving particles, atoms, molecules in such a way that honours our body and hence us all including the universe or in fact is the opposite. Every single emotion we experience and everything that comes from that is not honouring and is in fact harming the body simply by its flow and intent. This is huge and takes responsibility beyond a legal debate into the realms of what is true or not.
When I first heard about energetic responsibility I felt a little scared because I thought that it meant I had to be on top of everything all of the time and making sure I was constantly right in my movements, how I spoke, expressed etc. I now see that holding myself in this cycle of perfection was actually halting my natural flow and ease in which my true quality could shine. There is no perfection in energetic responsibility it is just an invitation to explore more of who we are from within. Thank you Chetan.
Yes Kelly- and for me its been and yet is a journey of discipline vs ‘loving’ discipline ..
And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This was a huge one for me for most of my life, needing to be perfect. It’s so gorgeous now to let go of that strangle hold I had on myself trying to be and uphold that ridiculous ideal, and learning that it is all about quality and me being present with myself and moving with that divine quality.
“this path of energetic responsibility is not something that I can dilly dally with, flirt with, have an affair with or delay anymore.” For a long time i have fitted this energetic responsibility into chosen areas of my life, made it look good, made everything look better, yet the beautiful part is that any aspect that is for self will quickly become stagnant and empty, yet the cyclical, universal call to evolve will keep knocking at our door.
Yes Lucinda so true. It’s always there and its for us to choose in any nano-second..
A perfect description of meeting Serge Benhayon ..”Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime”…
It is interesting what you have shared about responsibility and how it is what we need to bring our ‘mojo’ back to life. Most would consider this a drudge or a burden, but being responsible for the way you live and dealing with things as they arise is extremely liberating. It is the things we hang onto, old hurts, beliefs etc. that drain us, keep us stuck in the past and can make life seem like a chore.
Learning to deepen our process and relationship with responsibility and energetic integrity, through our choices and learning to live in a way that supports us and not depletes us is a very real challenge but one that is very rewarding and so possible. I have found that when I get my self out of the way – my individuality or ego, wanting recognition etc and just do what needs to be done without looking for reward or escape with my process of life, feeling my way and taking rest stops along the way life then holds me in a beautiful rhythm of space and time ,much more enjoyable than the old patterns of being under the pump or just doing to get to the next escape point or comfort zone .
Opening up to our connection with the universal rhythm absolutely offers an understanding and awareness of our energetic responsibility in our part of everything. Responding to this truth in every moment and movement offers so much more than the mind can comprehend. The body does comprehend this and Serge Benhayon offers, shares and lives the embodiment of this truth so we all can choose this for ourselves equally.
The path of Energetic Responsibility was one that I avoided until I met Serge Benhayon and realised how any amount of anxiousness,sadness, frustration, lack of self worth I had in my life – in fact anything that made me lesser – was because I was not in touch with my true essence, and understanding energetic awareness and responsibility has brought me that precious gift.
So true Sandra – to truly appreciate the steps we take to change is an integral part of accepting responsibility and expanding our experiences. Accepting ourselves the ‘detrimental choices’ we have made is true humility that brings with it a deepening of our connection to ourselves and the all and how we can come together in harmony.
It felt so empowering to read your words Chetan – mostly because they expressed something that we all feel within but have not taken the responsibility to express. It felt as though your innermost feelings were allowed to flow freely and inspire the world to change their whole life perception. It feels awesome when we connect to ‘A path that allows me to unfold at my own pace and holds me in grace with each step’.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” This is a very good point Chetan. Einstein’s theory is known to be highly intelligent and one that has much wisdom, so why do we not take more notice? Why do we not apply this to life?
It takes courage isn’t it Rebecca to be responsible for everything..
Absolutely Chetan. So we avoid applying it and we avoid wanting to truly know. We are content with the knowledge but do not want to live it. Where is our courage?
How scary is leaving school and entering the world! After some time, do we ponder is this it? Have we like the poster that shows a person waist deep in water, surrounded by alligators and bugs and have forgotten that our purpose is to drain the swamp? Life is about purpose, and everything is a part of it.
Steve I always love the way you express…exquisite!
‘How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect’ – its that simple. I noticed something last year, that everyone is looking at everything we do all of the time… its the reason you can’t fool your kids with words, or at work people really know exactly what you are feeling no matter how busy because it comes through with every movement, and in every moment. So true responsiblility is about all of those moments – every one.
Absolutely Simon. Each one of us know- each one of us clocks the false and the true. we then simply override it or choose to go with it..
I know that too andrewmoney26, and it is all our own responsibility. We cannot blame anyone for having a day off in the struggle and existence except for being honest and observe where we have lost our connection with the whole we are part of.
Energetic responsibility is key in the restoration of brotherhood on earth. Because “everything is energy and everything is because of energy” (Serge Benhayon), we all need to work together as one to make our societies work in such ways that they will support all equally and become a place for all to prosper and evolve.
Reading your blog again Chetan is so inspiring, the way your express is like music to my ears and the wisdom you shared is like an endless well. It is very easy to relate to. I feel like I am on the same journey as you and continuously learning along the way.
Energetic Responsibility is a huge topic and puts us firmly in the driver’s seat of our own life, the life of those around, everybody’s else’s life and also, the harmony or lack thereof of the whole universe. Not only is everything energy, but everything affects everything as well.
And it has been my experience Chetan that connection to my whole body and surrender to the feeling in many dimensions contained within my body is the agent of feeling life as a whole – past, present, future as one – as you have described.
It is an amazing choice to firstly connect to then to commit to our awareness from our whole body, our whole body intelligence. This is the exact opposite to what we are told – about the intelligence of the mind and how to use it. The truth is the mental intelligence uses us and our bodies for its own glorification and recognition. The whole body intelligence is part of energetic awareness serving all equally.
We have all had those days when we sit, ponder, and take stock. When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before. Yes, those moments are truly awesome and just keep deepening as you say, so that it feels like a new experience. So gorgeous how that presence expands and expands.
It is important to hear the difference between a path of emotional reactions to life and the steadiness of a path of energetic responsibility.
There is so much more to life than what we physically see.
And it is a great joy to experience a life which is dedicated by quality opposed to tasks, jobs or dreams.
Beautifully expressed “A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’”. Our choices matter, we receive a reflection in life through our choices. I am learning that this is a truth for me and the judgement I felt in the past, I realised largely came from within, self condemnation. Life continues to unfold and offer new opportunities to bring more understanding for ourselves and learn that choices matter, this is how I am becoming aware of energetic responsibility.
“How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that, and this is something that opened my eyes to a far larger view of the world than the previously narrow view, which was mostly focused on the self.”
To fully connect to our surrounds is the first steps out of insulter indulgence that we have all become accustom to. The next step is how we move in this surrounds and in the awareness of our vast responsibility. Beyond our behavior deep in our hearts we are all universal men, we all want the same thing underneath the façade and that thing is love. Its sounds too simple to be true but the more for us that reawaken to our energetic responsibility the more we too can support others to reawaken their spark.
Thanks Otto- Yes it’s the diamond within us all..
Thank you Rebecca for the appreciation
‘A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’ This observant love touches me deeply and holds an understanding of human life that is profoundly inspirational. I cannot help but surrender to this all encompassing love. I love this blog Chetan.
I feel the same Bernadetteglass, I am also hugely inspired. Understanding ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility’ has supported me to understand life and why the world is where it currently is.
Indeed Chetan this path is activated by a undeniably ancient pull to truth, one where every aspect of ones life becomes inextricably linked to a grander purpose and meaning.
And we all feel this Pull Lucinda isn’t it!
And if we don’t respond to the natural flow and pull to the grander purpose and meaning of life, it can feel like life is difficult and resistant and we have to drag ourselves along – as your early reference Chetan.
I keep coming back to the start… how honouring, respectful, responsible and loving it is to choose the space for ourselves to sit, ponder and take stock. This can be the beginning of huge revelation and change. Thank you, Chetan, for the simplicity of this inspiration.
Thanks Chetan , for a great piece of writing, an awesome confirmation of the journey back to love through energetic resposiblility / integrity and commitment to life .Appreciating every step along the constant path of unfoldment .
“responsible not just for myself, my behaviours, my patterns and my hurts, but also responsible for how I reflect that responsibility back to the rest of humanity, who may yet struggle to walk their true path”. This is not something to be overwhelmed by or to fear for it is in fact very empowering to choose to fully embrace and be aware of our energetic responsibility and it supports us in our continuous unfolding path back to our equality with and re-connection to, not only the whole of humanity, but also to the glorious Universe.
In this piece of writing, we get to experience a beautiful man appreciating himself, openly and with no apology or competition. He is brave and strong and aware and tenderly caring. What a stupendous role-model.
Thanks Shami for the heartfelt appreciation of the truth!
This is so awesome to read. Growing up I could only see an emptiness in the day to day. A deep grief was felt even as I tried desperately to achieve what I was being old would bring happiness and fulfillment because I knew there was much more to life than met the eye. Learning to heed my awareness of energy and be more responsible connects me once again to true purpose so the everyday goes beyond doing to being grand in the doing. This what I am giving myself permission to feel.
Chetan, incredibly beautiful and claimed. A brother walking the path of return appreciating all the beauty this path offers.
“A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’”
This account and responsibility is often misconstrued as judgement and can be used against you by those that want to live blind to their choices, that do not want to know the consequence to an action or the fact that for every force there is an equal and opposite force. Energetic responsibility is actually freedom from an energy that otherwise owns you; which makes you think you have choices but in fact all paths you choose lead to the same ending.
Beautiful expressed Chetan. It is so simple and gorgeous to give ourselves the permission to shine , and that be a reflection to support others to allow themselves to shine. I have recently seen a work colleague hugely blossom, feeling her worth more and more, totally changing, from wearing clothes that celebrate herself, to the way she speaks , and this was because the workplace team, all of us together, embraced her for who she truly is and reflected that.
To truly embrace that we are all unfolding allows us to feel the beauty and grace of what we are all learning together.
I love the universal and ancient truths you are sharing with us here, Chetan – “The truth of it all is not out there, but watching us silently from deep within the recesses of our core.”
Wonderful blog Chetan. This is a great time to take stock and to appreciate how far we have come and to remind ourselves of our responsibility to reflect this to those around us.
The first of many inspirations in this article is in the first paragraph when you talk about sitting, pondering and taking stock. There is so much grace and respect in this; giving ourselves permission to hang out with ourselves for a review and some consideration. Thank you, Chetan.
Thank you Matilda!
Discovering Energetic Responsibility is such a joy and it makes so much sense. As you say Chetan: ‘How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that, and this is something that opened my eyes to a far larger view of the world than the previously narrow view, which was mostly focused on the self.’ As we start to care about what we are putting out there which affects even the whole universe, we feel how beautiful it feels in our own bodies – as we are caring for the universe and all others we are also caring for our own bodies, and vice versa.
‘Taking stock’ is a very important exercise to do. As we reflect on the choices we have made, how we have handled certain situations, the quality we bring to our day and relationships, etc. we can deeply appreciate and confirm our self and use this as a marker to say okay ‘if I can do this what more can I do?’ To quote a friend of mine.
Energetic responsibility is a path not many are willing to consciously take; and yet we are all on, regardless of whether we choose to see we are walking it or not.
To me the unfolding path is living from a deep connection within and the more responsibility I am prepared to take to live from this connection rather than follow the dictates of the head the more that gets exposed as I slowly learn and understand my part in what is getting reflected back to me in my day to day life. A big part of this learning is the letting go of the personnel and seeing everything as an outplay of energy. Being able to discern energy allows me to understand what is at play and counter imposing energy by surrendering to the love that is naturally within and making my every movement in that love.
Taking stock of the where we are and where we have come from allows a deeper level of appreciation and confirmation in our lives, I have found this supportive as I become more and more aware of the level of responsibility I have in reflecting this to others as part of their evolution.
Understanding that our every movement and expression is having an impact on the whole is an awareness that inspires energetic responsibility. I enjoyed reading and feeling the reflection you offer Chetan, thank you.
And Amina we will yet always experience the tension- the push and pull – the tug of the Spirit Vs Soul but it is in allowing accepting and appreciating that the struggle will dissipate and we can handle it lovingly all the way.
And in that recognition comes immense responsibility at all times Michael. What are we saying Yes to constantly is the key here.
Definitely agree with you there Chetan, for if we say no to absolution, we are saying yes to something else… i.e. Less.
To pause and appreciate the path we are on, the unfolding nature of it, we come to appreciate the love we are held in and how life is set up to support us to return to living with this love in full. Appreciation makes way for what is next and confirms what is.
Beautifully said, Victoria and it all starts with that first pause, just a moment to be quietly in relationship with ourselves.
I often wonder why the human race make such terrible choices and knowing that there are only two energies to choose from goes a long way to answering this. One leads to love and the other tries to keep us from this love.
I love how you say the Unfolding Path Chetan – it reminds me how we all already have all that is needed within us and it’s about reconnecting with that and letting it out in our expression – like the petals of a beautiful flower unfolding and blooming, rather than needing to seek for something outside of us to make us enlightened or better.
Chetan your writing here exudes a love of life that can only come from living it in full. Taking responsibility for your hurts has freed you from those self-imposed shackles. You have been inspired by others showing you there is another way, and now you are overflowing with inspiration for others.
Hear hear Bernard! Thank you for your awesome acknowledgment. And It is up to each of us to Inspire and Reflect the Truth at all times. True Energetic Responsibility..
Thanks for your beautiful remider of taking stock of where we are at and how far we have come, and yet at the same time know that there is so much more for us to surrender to.
imagine a world where everyone lived their mojo fully. how would we relate to one another and how would our communites look ? an amazing potential is there for us all to live now.
‘… responsible for how I reflect that responsibility back to the rest of humanity..’
When we make it about everyone, the evolution of mankind, responsibility becomes our fluent language because we know that everything we do affects everyone else.
I didn’t really understand what energetic responsibility was before I met Serge Benhayon, I had ‘an’ understanding of responsibility, but not a true understanding. Energetic responsibility is that we leave an imprint of energy with everything we do, say and move, every single time. This is too much responsibility for some, myself included before Universal Medicine. But in understanding this now, it is super important to know and understand the impacts of what we choose to do and say with ourselves and others.
“It’s like we know it but we choose to not be aware of it because it feels like too much for us to handle.” Yes, this is familiar, and I often feel this. It is some ideal or belief to not act or complete what it is I feel and am responsible for. Is this where the tension of life comes into play? The tension of not completing what is being asked by the order of the universe.
‘It offers a strong steadiness that I always knew was laying within’ this is something I know is inside of me, that I have felt, but have yet to live consistently. This has to come from committing to a loving relationship with myself, it won’t come from anything or anyone outside of me. This can be a hard pill to swallow if we have not taken or play games to avoid taking responsibility, and taking responsibility for deeply loving ourselves. From this steadiness there is no need, drama or distraction, everything becomes super simple, joyful and clear. These may be words just now, but I have felt moments of this.
‘How sad it is then that we have lost our inner essence, our flow. We have chosen to disconnect from our ‘mojo’, that inner joy that emanates all day long leaving us feeling bouncy and light on our path, if only we would allow it.’ Absolutely – and yet it is but a simple choice to reconnect which can be made at any time.
It’s as simple as that Michael and consistency builds that strong foundation in the body.
‘It always made me wonder why we as a human race are not choosing this, and instead, are so rushed, so exhausted and so lost.’ Its simply that we are not a human race, but individual human beings who have lost their connection to the all. If we stop rushing around, stop to smell the roses so to speak, we realise that it is all there already!
I think more and more people are becoming more aware of energy but we are a long way off it being in every conversation the way it ought to be and taking on the responsibility of it that you have expressed so well here Chetan.
I agree Kevin, it is certainly not common in our society to talk about energetic responsibility. Which is why blogs like this are super important, they shed a light on this topic, and they help making it normal to talk about.
“Thus this lesson, this path for me, is not only for this life, it’s beyond life and yet it keeps showing me how to stay committed to life.” Before meeting Serge Benhayon, I had never come across anyone that talked about anything that was beyond this life but related it to staying committed to life. This has been truly inspiring.
Thank you Katerina for the highlight of the purpose for the steps we take – returning to Soul.
What you describe here Chetan is the grace we are imbued throughout life by the very virtue of the fact that we are Sons of God returning. Life on earth as it is today is meant to be with its challenges and intensities because we’ve set it up to be a life very unnatural to our innate flow – but in this unravelling there can be tremendous grace, when we know and we cherish that each step forward however challenging it may seem is taking us closer back to Soul when we make it about returning to Soul in the first place.
Yes Katrina and in that step comes the lightness of being from connecting to that innate divinity within.
“And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility…” this is beautiful blog and sharing and something for everyone to be aware of with its gentle simplicity and true understanding of life I love it.Taking stocktake is very poignant and purposeful at this time of the year .
What I love about this blog is how you talk about unfolding at your own pace, I have put so much pressure on myself to be someone or be somewhere instead of appreciate and accept where I am. I also do this to other people, instead of seeing them and all the amazing they all ready are and bring. This stops me connecting with them and letting them in. Ultimately it’s a lack of responsibility.
Yes Gyl- Appreciation of who we are and where we come from can bring us deeper into that unfolding..
It is great to have a few hours or a day off to contemplate and take stock of where we are in life. The end of a year, or the end of a cycle is often a time we can reflect and appreciate the changes we have made, and where we are going to make new changes. It brings focus to the bigger picture we are all in, how we influence others by the decisions we make ourselves. It’s an opportunity to reconnect to the inner joy within us and allow ourselves to feel the flow.
True Kylie!
Thank you Michael, it is truly a blessing that I came upon your comment this morning, as however many times I have to remind myself that this is the case, another reminder is very supportive. We can either choose to learn from life and move on, or retract from it, and I know which I would rather do, and although sometimes it feels like wading through treacle, there is always a brighter shore on the horizon if we make our lives about service to humanity and love for ourselves. I believe that’s called commitment, and of course, energetic responsibility!
Pleasure Sandra, we are here to serve and that is indeed our responsibility. Thank you for sharing 🙂
Chetan it is great to regularly take stock and appreciate how far we have come and the lessons we have learnt. This is also a great time of year to do it. Your blog has inspired me to stop and take stock of this year that is soon about to end, and be open to what the new year will bring.
‘Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime’ this is what Serge Benhayon does, he lives in such a way that his expression of himself is continually evolving and at the same time he is reminding us that we are the same, it is only our choices that keep us small.
I love your description here of the Energetic Path of Responsibility, Chetan. A path that feels full of humility and is yet incredibly powerful as a reflection for others whilst also deeply holding and honouring for the individual at same time. It leaves nothing out as it is all encompassing, very accepting, spherical and spacious without time constraints or limits. `No pressure – just a simple choice to connect and in that choice we are offered the magnitude of all the Universal Wisdom we can handle in that moment, but that which exponentially grows each time we make that choice to align and deepen our awareness..
Reblogged this on florisvanderschot's Blog and commented:
“Bringing understanding into our lifes. First of all understanding for ourselves. This will give us a far more #spacious and #gentle / #tender relationship with ourselves. That there’s nobody to #blame, there’s we’re not here to go through #life protecting ourselves. That we’re allowed, in fact stimulated to make mistakes in order to #grow. That we’re held #Divinely so, despite so many human reactions around us. Allowing ourselves a #relationship with ourselves that is #welcoming and #warm, whatever happens is a great #foundation to build. In order to slowly let life guide us to let go of the layers and layers of #protection, hurts etc. #2017 is an amazing year to start building this process as this year symbolises a #new #beginning (2+0+1+7 = 10 = 1+0 = 1). I am with you. Even though we might never meet each other.”
‘Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime…’ This is a beautiful way of expressing the relationship with those who have chosen to make more choices in energetic responsibility than we have and fosters true appreciation for the reflection they offer and dispels the jealousy that we can otherwise inadvertently focus toward them.
And why even choose Jealousy isn’t it Michael ? i would rather choose and will always choose the learning that reflection is offering to me at all times..
It is a well trodden way of living that we then try to cover up with ‘fun’ it’s quite the set up!
I agree Vanessa. The fun or the run of the mill well wishes even – (something I am hearing a lot around this time of year) feel like a cover up rather than just letting and knowing choices dictate how we feel or what ultimately happens to us and that things unfold as they need to. That everything, every moment offers us something and it is just as it needs to be. Today I heard many people say ‘happy new year’ and last week ‘merry christmas’ but the fact is that those days will hold just exactly what they need to hold and unfold like for each person. Some moments may be merry or happy or joyful while others may bring tension.
I love that quote about our extraordinary intelligence when our body is the one leading the way and not our mind. I have had glimpses of this intelligence and it is beyond anything I have been taught.
Just imagine Vanessa- someday this will be taught in schools for sure!
As I reflect over my life it is incredibly amazing the constellations that have occurred for me to be where I am today, a student of Universal Medicine and even in those deeply challenging moments I knew I was being taken care of and that they were simply fleeting moments that I was to experience to get me where I am today. It reminds me that when I feel perhaps stuck in life that I am not stuck at all and that I do know where I am heading in every moment; it’s simply down to me and the choices I make as to whether I choose love or not.
I often think that our world is like being in a pool. Our movements cause energetic ripples that will affect others just as those felt when we move in water.
On this last day of 2016, you have inspired me, Chetan, to take stock of everything that has been shared and learned this year, to appreciate the unfolding path of returning home and that every step of the way has been lit up by the love and ageless wisdom of Serge Benhayon.
Thank you Janet- looking forward to your stock taking on a blog perhaps..;)
Appreciation is such an important key.
Very well said. There is always a reason for everything.
Absolutely johanna08smith, there is a reason for everything. Lately I have been trying to look at the bigger picture and found myself feeling a little overwhelmed by what may, or may not lie before me. Sometimes I allow my thoughts to take over which only causes anxiousness, instead of choosing in the moment to connect to me and appreciate my qualities, as this is the only true way to support me in moving forwards into what lies ahead. The bigger picture will take care of itself when I focus on my movements right now and surrendering to what lies ahead. Everything is Everything, and Nothing is Nothing.
Chetan Jha, this is beautiful, ‘I had one such deep, ‘taking stock’ moment the other day on a beautiful London morning, reflecting on where I had come from and everything that I had come to within myself, the paths that I had walked and the choices I have made.’ I can feel how important these moments are, taking the time to reflect on and appreciate our lives and the choices we have made, I can feel that I do not do this enough and can have a tendency to just carry on rather than stop, appreciate and celebrate the amazing changes that I have made in my life.
Yes, Rowena, I too am blessed and graced with meeting Serge Benhayon – a humble man, who is the greatest ‘Change Agent’ for reflecting truth in the way he consistently lives 24/7, offering everyone the opportunity to be a Change Agent for the greater good of all. ‘I had the good grace to meet a man whose mojo shines so brightly I wanted to find out more and through his wise and very practical teachings was re-introduced to mine once more.’
On reading this sentence, my whole body is responding to the truth of it – initially an openess and expansion in my upper chest, spreading throughout my whole body, along with a sense of a deep solidness, steadiness and stillness within. To accept we are all part of this vast whole is key to our return to true Brotherhood.
“The truth of it all is not out there, but watching us silently from deep within the recesses of our core. A place within; where we know we are all deeply, intrinsically connected, just as the stars and the planets and the galaxies form a part of the whole in the skies up above”.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” Good question Chetan and I wonder, are we just sticking our heads in the sand so to speak, so that we can continue to ignore what we feel and hence continue with our disregarding ways? We do know about energy, we know that we get energy from the sun, from food and we have to actively produce energy to run our homes and economies, its not a foreign concept to us. However Serge Benhayon is the first person that I have met that puts the subject of Energy first and foremost, helping those who are willing to pull our heads out of the sand and begin to see and feel the energetic effects of our every movement and expression beyond the narrow confines of our own little worlds.
“I was now able to understand how I had been living a lie up until that point and how I had been offered a much truer and freer way of being.” The Path of Energetic Integrity exposes so much, both the lies I and humanity has been living and also the beauty and the magic of God to which we have for so long been blind.
Thank you Chetan for shining a light on the energetic responsibility that we all share in walking a path that inspires others to find their way back to where we come from and who we truly are.
across our society there is a lot of comparison, between those who are ‘educated’ , ‘aware’, ‘athletic’, ‘good looking’ and or an individual in any way , and one thing I have really learned from your blog is that no matter what all of this surface stuff is, everyone is the same.
I love what you share and how you describe energetic responsibility. In the trudging walk our eyes are often cast downwards – afraid or perhaps generally disinterested in what we might see. Or our eyes are cast inward as in self-interested, trying to survive or make sense of the world. Energetic responsibility I’m discovering is looking out of my eyes with the light I already am, and this supports the understanding of what is seen, rather than the absorbing of what is happening. In the looking out I’ll be supporting myself to respond accordingly to what is truly called for. In the taking it in I’m much more likely to react, hence not want to see what is truly going on.
‘Meeting him was like meeting the highest reflection of myself in this lifetime,’ This is beautifully said Chetan. True role models reflect the potential that is equally within us all – yet to be fully chosen and lived.
Awesome blog Chetan- I love your approach to life lessons by your quote “And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. “
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” – great question Chetan. If science has proven that everything is energy, why is the human race walking around as if it isn’t? This is a great revelation for us all. And it isn’t just sometimes, it is 24/7. Energy doesn’t turn off and on, it is always on. We could say Serge Benhayon is ahead of his time, or is it that because humanity is so asleep and not where we should be, he is here to wake us all up!
I heard Serge say once Energy is the ‘movement of formlessness’- and if we are made up of energy then how much are we orchestrating our lives and our creation through the energy we are choosing… it brings back a whole new level of responsibility we can consider.
Absolutely – Once we bring energy into the equation of life – then the realms previously hidden start to make themselves known – and it is like starting life all over again, learning from the beginning and living in a way that is in the knowing and honouring of all that we are a part of.
Life can get so busy that time can easily slip us by without taking those moments to take stock. Yet, those moments are so important for our evolution. It is when we allow ourselves space do we have the opportunity to consolidate and appreciate all that we have done and to open up to what our next steps are.
Spot on Kathleen – which pot are we drinking from? Which fuel are we using?…
With cars, there is no way you can get away with putting the wrong fuel in your car, yet as humans we have a way of insisting that the unnatural sources of energy are actually OK to refuel ourselves with. It is time we began to really look at this and work it in a different way, ask how we are breathing and how we are moving and what energy is the one behind this all.
Chetan I love how you share so beautifully “And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility…” the line resonates with me, and I especially enjoy the feeling of humbleness when it comes to learning to live with Energetic Responsibility for everything about life in ways that I am sure I can’t yet grasp changes.
“And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This in turn accelerates me towards where I was always meant to be.” This is so very well timed for me Chetan and allows my body to surrender to the unfolding of what is true, for it is the surrender that allows my body, particles and movements to return to their natural divine order. So very cool thank you.
“…If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?…” Great question.. perhaps in time, this will be discussed more openly because energetic understanding and responsibility is the ultimate way to bring understanding and a truth to everything, and the why everything happens, in our world.
‘It always made me wonder why we as a human race are not choosing this, and instead, are so rushed, so exhausted and so lost.’ on one level I understand this and to be honest did not know living with such a spark and vitality was possible until I saw, felt, observed the reflection that Serge Benhayon lives. And now many many more live and reflect. This was a great inspiration for me to come across ten years ago as it unlocked something in me, reminded me of who I am and tangibly showed me that if that one body can do it then so can I. ‘Let the mojo return’
‘I could feel and sense the busy-ness and the heaviness of how everyone starts their morning: already weary, fatigued, bone-tired and yet trudging along, forcing themselves to get out there.’ This is quite full on to feel. For me when I started to be aware of and making the steps that supported me, my body, my connection and vitality – I stated to see more clearly what I onced lived in and also what was being lived in around me by others. It’s a lot to feel initially just how tired, disconnected and given up many are today and it’s a very great reason to keep working on supporting ourself and then reflecting that another way is possible through some very simple choices. If no one takes the step to reflect that we can live life with a fullness and vitality – we will all just accept the worn-outness, the illness, disease etc as part of what life is – when in fact it’s extremely far from what is possible and who we truly are and how life can be. The tension, the tiredness, the checking out etc are there to very loudly let us know that it’s not natural to us to be living in a way that makes us feel so depleted, that it’s not working and to also call us to a responsibility of our daily choices.
Absolutely right, as said above we are on a path, one that one chooses, that brings us back to where we come from.. Hence all the indivuality lived by each one of us will be exposed – as Oneness is our original source. It indeed takes one to inspire the many to feel again and be aware of where we come from and how to life with energetic responsibility as such. Thankyou Chetan for your steady turn on the path we were always meant to be on.
‘We have all had those days when we sit, ponder, and take stock. When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before.’ These moments are an absolute Godsend as they allow us to feel more than we usually would choose to. I know for me – before I chose to make a conscious effort to be more connected with myself and self care after i thankfully crossed paths with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine about ten years ago – I vividly remember the impacts of these moments. At times they happened during a bit of a calamity in my life and other times they just came to me in a lovely stop everything moment on my own in different environments but they always felt of the same quality – a deeper ponder at life and they always made me look at my choices more closely because I was feeling me and my life more in these moments. I always felt like i had a clearer perspective of what I had to do or should do or wasn’t doing or needed to do after these moments. The beauty is that we all have these moments of deeper connection and they seem to let us know how instant that depth can be accessed instantly – very confirming of the grandness we are all from.
‘I was now able to understand how I had been living a lie up until that point and how I had been offered a much truer and freer way of being.’ This is an amazing moment in one’s life, Chetan, when the realisation dawns that we have been living a lie, no matter how ‘well-intentioned’ we have felt. The illusory ways of the earth life we have created are laced into almost every activity, word, and gesture. Especially seductive for me have been the images that I have put in place to protect myself and keep ‘secure’ – images of lifestyle, what a friend must act like’, of what kind of job I will take, how the world ‘should’ be – all of these keeping me in bondage from the truth of our origin and being. How beautiful to be seeing these illusions and throwing them to the winds.
Taking stock! This sounds really obvious, but when I’m honest. How often do I actually take a moment to ponder on how far I’ve come. That there’s in fact a lot to appreciate. That my life is in fact beautifully unfolding. I can feel that giving myself permission to really feel this, to accept that my life is mine and that I’m allowed to honour and appreciate myself deeply would be very loving and nurturing. A medicine that I’ve not taken consciously for a long long time. With 2017 on it’s way, I will go for it.
Firstly Chetan, i love this blog, its so beautiful, inspiring and expansive. You really have shown how when we live with energetic responsibility, switching the awareness button on how expansive our lives become, that we are so much more than the limitation of our physical dimension, we are so powerful each one of us, connected to the all, yet when our awareness is switched of ‘we think this is it’.
“Everything is Energy; therefore Everything is because of Energy!” It was powerful to just feel into those words, the vastness that it expands us into.’ these words immediately opened me up to the vastness beyond the physical. Serge Benhayon’s presentation on energy is life changing.
“So it’s definitely no coincidence that I ‘chanced’ upon becoming aware of my true path” – when one looks back in review and observes all the twists, turns, and choices that led to things/paths, there is great perspective, and in this, appreciation with the knowing that it [and the true path] was always there; that it was just a matter of time.
Chetan, your blog also ignites in me how we are all teachers in what we choose to express and live in even if we believe we are not, because in-truth we are all reflecting what we are choosing.
It is so beautiful to know that we are on an unfolding path, a path where we literally unfold ourselves to reveal the golden light that we are and come from.
Yes indeed. We unfold ourselves.
It sure is Chetan – I can feel your lightness and playfulness coming through – its exquisite.
That is beautiful Chetan “When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before.” My pondering and feeling of life use to be worrying, over analyzing and being critical of myself instead of, the cocreation on what is before you and what your future holds – the way out of being embroiled and enmeshed in life as you say.
It is a choice to stop and take stock allowing all that we have chosen and all that we hold dearly to what’s true to empower that next point of evolution.
I was stopped by the beautifully clear picture you have painted of how the world wakes up, already tired and weary from the life that they are living, or probably existing in, and weighed down by the knowing that they are having to face another day. When I contemplate this it is so clear that the way most of us are living is actually at odds with how we could be living, that there is another way that is respectful and honouring of our precious bodies which results in a life that is joy-filled and vital, and one where the fact that ““Everything is Energy; therefore Everything is because of Energy!” is taught to every child from day one. Now that is a world in which you would be painting a very different early morning picture.
Chetan Jha, I love this, ‘when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices.’ Beautiful, what a very simple way to live and evolve, without reacting, getting defensive, and instead appreciating all that comes for us to learn from.
Your blog is a great reminder Chetan that we belong to a multidimensionality that absolutely dissolves any ‘self’. The very term ‘energetic responsibility’ cannot hold any self and to truly understand this is understanding the temporary nature of individuality. We must all return to the oneness we came from and essentially are.
I was at our local shopping centre early yesterday morning and as I walked towards my car I saw a women down trodden, depressed and shuffling along towards the shops. I was wearing a very brightly stripped dress and feeling spritely and full of swank. As we passed she looked up at me, her whole face lit up, her body rearranged itself and she said ‘Oh what a beautiful dress’ In that moment I could feel how she had aligned to me and clocked the power of reflection. It was not really the dress she was appreciating, she recognised herself in me.
Being that we are made of it and live in it, energy is one very big and mega-important topic… so, yes, I agree with the author of this blog that it is high time to bring the topic into discussions.
I have been introducing this when there feels to be an opening and although many do not what to “go there” (it is a huge can to open full of levels of responsibility we have been trying to dismiss for aeons), people know what I’m talking about…
We all feel energy, we all have thoughts that don’t seem to belong to us but which float through our mind… so why not look deeper and talk about it with each other?… the answer to all our woes just may lie in developing our awareness and true understanding of energy…
I love how you describe this jstewart51. I also have found that the more I adhere to the integrity truth (who I truly am) the more this integrity brightens and enriches my life.
This is a profound encouragement to me, that all we need to do is work on being true to who we are (our undamaged inner most being) and this brings us home out of all the mess and pain that not living with integrity has been bringing.
Yes, Jo, this is true healing – polishing our inner gold, then the obscurities dissolve away and our essence shines beacon like.
As we come to the end of another year, its great to look back on the path we have walked and where it has lead us – where we have wondered from what we know to be true, and where we have felt like we have evolved or grown.
I know that for me, walking a path of return means that there is no struggle to get somewhere, no need to set new year goals, simply look at the areas of my life that are hindering this return, and work through them.
If we could visit every home on Earth, take a picture of humanity waking up and publishing it, we would all see with our own eyes that this is not really working for us.
Giving ourselves the grace to learn and make decisions that take us away from our inner essence can only be a true path. When we feel what is not supporting and expanding our inner essence then we have a lived experience of what is not true. Even more of a reason to make a different choice in the following moment that is in connection with our inner essence. Choosing a different movement that supports the next moment is working in rhythm with the Universe.
I love how making mistakes while still being a true student of yourself is never a moment to crush yourself for being wrong and making the mistake. It is about embracing each of these for what they are there to show in the first place – to show us how we can be more of who we truly are!
Its only about that isn’t it Alexis? Divine Magic at play – making it wondrous and simple at the same time.
Thank you Amina and yes its our truly lived experience that reflects and hits ‘home’ rather than mere words..
Yes Janet and that self deprecating or self flagellating thought pattern is what keeps us under. Those 3 A’s have been the Aces up my sleeve for a while now in getting to my deeper unfolding of it all..:)
Always here to first live it- be inspired by it and then reflect that- brother Michael.;) Thank you!
and hence we are the torch bearers Susie- to live it first and then reflect it to the rest of our brothers. Thats the divine purpose of it all..
Yes Samantha – Divine Magic at CONSTANT play is what rules my body.
Yes Richard! There is no short cut around this..
hear hear Lucinda! thank you for your sharing..
beautiful to hear this Michelle. They are indeed blessed to have chosen you as their parent.
Thank you Janet. Yes simple steps to unfold is key here.
and hence the blog Fiona. It’s irresponsible to shy away from it but it’s scary to feel that level of responsibility for most amongst us.
Thank you Leonne- and yes humanity is returning and some amongst that sea of humanity are the torch bearers of light, of a life lived with love and in truth!
Yes Stephanie we all know this. deep within us lies the spark waiting to be ignited!
Yes Susie and it can be as simple as that. But first the trust of where we come from must be felt deeply.
beautifully expressed here Alexis. And hence Energetic Responsibility is a science that must be lived so we can live the past the present and the future here on earth before its time to get back.
Thank you Carmel and we hold the answer to all the Universal Science in our bodies. The imprints are there waiting for us to return to..
awesomely expressed Johanne! thank you
Thank you Nathalie and yes choices define us and reflect who we truly are.
Yes Samantha- we all have so much to offer with this unfolding of who we truly are! For me- anything less is not being responsible. 🙂
Henrietta when this happens to me like you have shared with your daily experience- I then go back to my foundations and take that ‘one’ thing I need to deepen- and it’s always staring in our faces and yet we shrug them off-
Yes Judith and hence its even more imperative that we as adults light up the path for the ones to follow next. True service.
Yes Debra- and for me that Mojo only deepens- and in this I find myself inexhaustible just like the vastness of the Universal Fiery love!
If the words are deeply felt then the purpose has been served and thats what I am here for. Thank you Merrilee for your confirmation.
Beautifully expressed Liane- and yes no material gain can even come close to the vastness of the Fire and Love that we all come from.
Thank you Lyndy – Dropping and detaching from the world’s dramas makes us aware of what a game it all is!
Yes Sarah and so if everything is felt – even the slightest movement or that fleeting thought- then why will i not be more aware of what comes in and what goes out of me- for me this is like divine prayer to be lived each moment- sacred!
Yes Rachel and for me my whole body act as my ears to listen and tune in whenever I am out of sync..
And that order that you speak of Fumiyo is nothing but the ever expanding Universal Divine Order.
Love the playfulness in your expression Nicola! Keep it coming…
Yes Alison and when I awakened to this fact- it freed me up! I carry Energetic Responsibility in my body without much tension each day and when I do have tension- I stop and feel what were my choices that led me to that? Thus my foundations and my rhythm of life is very strong and powerful!
Love what you have shared here Rosie- this is true energetic responsibility!
Thank you Benkt!
Yes Vicky and hence this blog through me from the Hierarchy. Because not many amongst us actually take the time to stop and ponder. Absolute honesty is scary.
Developing our awareness makes such a big difference to how well we take on energetic responsibility. Our bodies can feel everything that is going on but we often try to shut that down, pretend we can’t feel. That doesn’t work because eventually ignoring the messages makes us sick. We are all innately capable of awareness and it can be our greatest ally, protection, and source of information.
Hey Zofia- thank you! Yes this honouring of the energy and the lineage we share is only deepening in me with the passage of time.
Yes Alison- for me in the cycles that I am- its all about brotherhood and responsibility as I now deeply honour the lineage that I come from.
Beautiful honesty in your sharing Julie- and in this comes the allowing, the accepting and the appreciating. Then we will feel that Joy inside out..and we will be aware of what makes us that we are not.
Yes Sandra- To speak out of knowledge is something that i have already indulged in for a few lifetimes- but this time around it’s walking the talk along the path hence it’s felt! Because for me and am sure for most amongst us- this is answering the call of the divine plan!
And Karin – who gave us those badges? Who/What placed those conditions on us? Nothing but our choices and our lack of energetic responsibility is it not?
Thank you Raegan- This is our true purpose here on the planet.
Yes Bernadette- hence we call this the Path of Return- for we keep returning at every turn and every corner..each moment.
Absolutely Alexis- Life is nothing but a mirror constantly reflecting to us- everything that we are and that we are yet Not!
As you truly put it Adele- that’s what Life was always meant to be about- Reflecting our inner choices to the outer world and in that deepening our own relationship with the Cosmos.
Thank you Kelly for the appreciation and that’s exactly what it’s all about- Allowing Accepting and Appreciating ourselves first to unfold.
Yes Monica- once we make ourselves aware with the fact of Energetic Responsibility then those blips only become stepping stones on the unfolding path…
I love that stop moment you describe Chetan, the taking stock pause, when we step back and feel where we are at. It clarifies the way forwards to help us to take the next step on our own development and gets us to appreciate the journey where we are from and where we are going.
‘…….We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.” to know this intelligence has been there all of our lives yet we have for so long denied what it offers blows me away. The breadth of ‘everything is energy and everything is because of energy’ is so vast in it’s implications in our life choices. What Serge Benhayon has shared with us all is a truly blessed gift and deeply supportive of our ‘unfolding’ lives. Thank you Chetan
Yes “We have all had those days when we sit, ponder, and take stock.” And this blog brings it home how invaluable it is for us to make a point of having more of such moments in our life.
Like chooks (hens),our head and brain is only a very small part of us. There is a whole body to consider, love and appreciate for the wisdom it carries which far outdoes the mind at any time. Thanks to Albert Einstein and Serge Benhayon many now have a known and living understanding of this.
Meeting Serge Benhayon is definitely a taking ‘stock moment’ when one has the opportunity to see and feel the reflection of a man who lives with the full responsibility of knowing who he truly is.
There is so much to unpack from you blog Chetan as you share about the path of return. “… We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.” I am on a steep learning curve in relearning to listen to my body when it comes to making choices and decisions…without fail it has supported me to make true choices and yet when I ignore what it is communicating and make choices based purely from my mind I could say my choices end up leading me astray and completely off path.
‘We all have been there – embroiled and enmeshed in life, constantly juggling, struggling, wiggling and more often than not whinging our way through life’s roads.’ Indeed we have, and it is only as I look back that I can see they were periods of learning and growing so that when opportunities came where I could feel truth in them there was an inner knowing about them and I could make some different choices.
Awesome blog Chetan. Was gorgeous to read how you found your true path, which is a path we are all on – our way to coming back to: The path of Energetic Responsibility. It can be challenging, we have to deal with and clear our hurts, but the payback, if you like, is that of ‘awareness’ which is priceless and which we all have access to when we choose to return to living a soulful life.
When I am tired I have often experienced that I was leaking life energy somewhere. One example is being identified with what I am doing and being identified with getting a result.
‘And so has begun the deep, humbling lesson of learning to live with Energetic Responsibility…’ – Very well said, to let go of the pictures we have carried about what is ‘right and wrong’ and what is ‘true and not true’ and to realise what truth and responsibility is really about, is indeed very humbling.
It’s so simple to view how we have been living when we stop and reflect on where we have or have not evolved! Without magic in our life, there is no unfolding.
When we begin to walk our true path, so much is presented, so much is reflected, so much growing and learning, but always with the hand of God and a knowing that it was just a matter of time before we found our true path and purpose.
“A path that does not judge me and yet will take into account every choice I make. This path is ‘The path of Energetic Responsibility.’ ” When we come to a true understanding and awareness of this path, although we still have a choice, ultimately there is no where to go other than to step onto it and allow ourselves to be open to where it is showing us to go. And in this way we are then giving others an opportunity to see that they can do the same.
Feeling your ongoing commitment is deeply inspiring for all on their own journeys with energetic responsibility Chetan, including me, thank you.
Thank You Michael- Yes there is no walking away this time around.
How beautifully you bring understanding to the meaning of Energetic Responsibility Chetan Jha. It feels deeply honouring, simple and joy-full way to have the ability-to-respond to life in this way (and live it), rather than being burdened by the re-interpretted, heavy-duty meaning of responsibility as an individual.
“Energetic Responsibility from what I have now come to understand is simple and yet so very magical. How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that, and this is something that opened my eyes to a far larger view of the world than the previously narrow view, which was mostly focused on the self”.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” A great question. How the world would be different, as you share your world changed, once it becomes common parlance.
When we put energy first, we afford ourselves a whole new space in which to regard life and all our issues. It is the missing ingredient and I fully appreciate the energetic education that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine whole-heartedly presents. It has transformed my entire understanding of life and the choices I have make everyday. Life is never the same again when we come to understand how energy impulses everything, a core understanding in life that we should learn even before we begin to read and write.
To live in ignorance to all is energy and because of energy really is quite a dumbing down job if we ever saw one. In fact when you talk of energy you almost straight away go into a camp of weirdness and wariness. It is interesting that we have set ourselves up in this way to avoid the truth of our beingness.
Correct the knowing and accepting of everything being energy is a life changer. And no bad thing! Though it does feel like we are swimming against the tide of where humanity places normality. The normal weariness is accepted rather than challenged which is interesting in itself.
If everyone could adopt the practice of energetic responsibility, as Chetan has claimed here with such authority, the world would look much different right now. Many of the challenges of war, famine, greed, hunger, etc. could be reduced with even just a little more awareness and understanding of just how much power we have to positively effect those around us when we are expressing who we are in full.
Thank you Michael and so true what you express here- the world will look different and it surely will some day as we see more and more amongst us carrying that responsibility with honesty and humility!
I relate deeply to your words here Chetan, when you describe: “It always made me wonder why we as a human race are not choosing this, and instead, are so rushed, so exhausted and so lost.” I always wondered the same – where was the joy? It seemed that most everyone around me was being depleted by life – even from a very young age, I didn’t want that ‘deal’, the sense of being worn out by life, stressed, the ‘world’ seeming to ask too much… there had to be something else…
And so it is so deeply significant, empowering and inspiring, when you describe the actual LIVED RETURN to your joy – the realisations that not only IS there ‘another way’, but it can be LIVED, and IS being lived. No man has inspired me more in this regard than Serge Benhayon – that we can indeed fully commit to life and that this is also our energetic responsibility: to live it in full from an ever-deepening foundation of love.
And so I deeply appreciate what you’ve shared here Chetan. Each man who comes back to a livingness of love and truth in life is a beacon for all others to see that we needn’t begin our days in the way you described witnessing, a way most of us have known well – but we can rather, arise founded in a far greater fire.
More words please from your sage pen Chetan Jha.
Great words, Victoria. Chetan has definitely added to the Light of the ‘lived return’ inspired by Serge Benhayon.
Thank you Dear Victoria for your amazing appreciation of the lived words. More coming up most definitley. from my sage heart.;)
The return to awareness – conscious awareness of the energies at play in life – is to be deeply celebrated Chetan, and that is what I feel inherent in your blog here… the deepest, true celebration – no ‘rah, rah’, no ‘epiphany’, but rather the celebration of true energetic awareness and indeed responsibility, which can by their very nature have no ‘end point’. We are always, always learning, and what Joy it can be to say ‘yes’ to this, with every cell…
“responsible not just for myself, my behaviours, my patterns, and my hurts, but also responsible for how I reflect that responsibility back to the rest of humanity, who may yet struggle to walk their true path.” what a great point to reflect on and appreciate. In a society where we do everything we can to avoid being responsible the choice to change and make ones life responsible not just for us but for everyone is deeply inspiring.
‘…I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This in turn accelerates me towards where I was always meant to be.’
When I drop the ball I often fall into a very convenient trap of saying, ‘Dropped it may as well not bother picking it up.’ Or I can be forever trying to chase the ball to where I think I should be if I hadn’t have dropped it whilst berating myself for dropping it. This doesn’t allow me the space to become aware of what happened for me to choose to drop the ball – a learning that allows me to return to being.
Yes, those days …”When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before…” It is this standing still of time that seems to change the relationship and the way we have been living life up until that moment, seems, looks and feels like it has changed forever.
Yes, we can have that stillness at any time, with and without taking stock.
I find there is magic and miracles in the most simple moments and choices.
When humanity understands this – that absolutely everything matters – our world will be a very different place.
Very true – step by step.
Ignoring and denying the fact that everything is energy before anything is anything is a form of irresponsibility. It is very simple to say the quality we move etc in and choose determines how our body feels, the quality of thoughts and the way we are in the world. It is bringing an intention and vigilancy to allowing our natural connection to be there that many do not want to work with when it is the most rewarding thing we can do for ourselves and others. Our quality is always our responsibility.
I completely agree. And to add – the weariness that people start their day with is a reflection of a living that is contributing to that. Our small choices in life all add up to our quality, how we feel and what we contribute to society not only in our work or family but through our reflection. Supportive choices offer a vitally and engaging quality of reflection.
I am learning to observe the reflection around me as well as my own (which is determined with the care and honour I have treated myself with) and then bring an understanding to that without judgement. Sometimes I get caught in the reflections around me are what I am also but this is not true. True reflections and vitality are always inspirations for me but I am learning that weary reflections around me can also be an opportunity for me to appreciate my own reflection of the care and support I offer myself and stay with that quality rather than down playing it to what I see around me.
You have beautifully presented some very important points of our evolution here Chetan I especially like the quote of Serge Benhayon from his book on Time Space and all of us Book 1 Time. He speaks of “our whole body as the place where our mind is”( Chapter 10 page 291)
I love how the foundation of which we are all made from shows that everything we do, say and move in, has an energetic quality. So then the quality in which we do anything holds us in responsibility to be all that we are in every moment without perfection of course. Energetic responsibility is very cool and full of opportunities of expansion and fun.
Thank you Chetan, this is an exquisite blog. What a beautiful unfolding path we are all on, once we realise how magnificent we all already are our journey together can be a joyous one.
Chetan, that was exquisite to read. I felt so blessed and connected to the all as I read and felt all the beauty an energetically aware life offers. Thank you.
Amazing Chetan, a great understanding of life, and acceptance of the path we will all walk once again. We have always meant to re-turn, no other turns are needed. Let’s accept our Soul, the path we all long for, and understand that there is in truth no way out, only further extension of delay. Thank you Chetan for being real, loving and truthful in your expression, a way of life that offers growth from inside out.
One of the simplest things about Energetic Responsibility for me is referring to my body. My body really lets me know the quality of energy and the outcomes of my choices. It’s a constant learning but the body really is the marker of truth!
Beautifully said Janet – appreciation and acceptance is always a worth while focus.
‘My understanding of how energetic responsibility affects my life’s choices has been life changing for me.’
For me too Chetan – because I now understand that the main choice we have is what energy we are aligning to and from there all other choices are made.
Same for me too Rachael. My life has changed hugely once I understood the meaning of energetic responsibility. This also allowed me to make sense of our world, our current global situation and how we are so deeply interconnected and beautifully part of a huge Oneness. Whether we are willing to accept this or not, we are all very much connected. Our choices not only affects us but everyone and everything around us and beyond.
After years and years being presented about the importance of reflection, the science of reflection that is, I understand what this means and how important each role is. We’re here to reflect the Love that we are in order to offer people the reflection and with that the possibility to choose different then most of us choose to live. We’re truly amazing being. No matter how hard we deny or fight this fact. We all are on an unfolding path back to the innate love that is awaiting inside of us to be connected to.
What is yet to be publicised widely, is that Einstein was not only a man of science, but a man of Religion too, and only in the marriage of the two can life be fully understood.
Change agent you certainly are, Chetan. So much joy in what you share here and in claiming the powerful and necessary step of energetic responsibility in all that we do.
Yes Katrina for sure! Thank you
In-sight-full blog – thank you Chetan. Once I realised my path and future is already there by the quality of my choice, it is up to me to choose it – energetic responsibility to co-create with that path. What I have also found a phenomenon is to let go of the images to what that path will look like. The mind is a device that continually identifies itself with its own path covering the real path that is already designed and predetermined within. “We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.”
Thank you Rik- its all about imbibing it in the body and then walking that talk isnt it?
Reading this today, my body expanded and I connected more to the fact that we are all connected and that there is a divine pulse that surrounds us and I deeply appreciated that fact.
Chetan you are indeed a soul-full brother, I liked how you described the ‘fiery diamond within’ and chipping away at the falsities I pictured it like peeling back the layers we have buried our soulful diamond under but it is eternally there for us.
Thank you Brother Bernard for your hearty appreciation.
“We would be wise to know that the first evolutionary peak that humanity is returning to is awareness, and in particular, one of energetic awareness. We will find, or in-truth rediscover, our extraordinary intelligence when we begin to use our whole body as the place where our mind is.” (Chapter 10, page 291) This is such a brilliant quote, one that is essential to understand and appreciate that we are living at all times from all the particles with-in our bodies, that there is no supreme part of us more worthy than any other. We truly start to live to our potential when we live as a whole – this is a simple responsibility to understand and claim.
” We have chosen to disconnect from our ‘mojo’, that inner joy that emanates all day long leaving us feeling bouncy and light on our path, if only we would allow it.” Beautiful Chetan so true and the heart of all we are missing and not living with. Meeting Serge Benhayon was the most revolutionary moment in my life and has been ever since opening up the truth of energy, love, responsibility and true purpose making sense of everything and our choices from within. His commitment to humanity and his integrity is beyond all and remarkable and is offering the truth and true freedom for the world and all who are part of it.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” – how true Chetan, and in doing so over the years…coming to learn and know the difference between soul/fire and spirit/prana, has completely changed everything in regards the way i see the world, live and be in the world. Energy is life. Life is energy.
Absolutely Zofia- and so we must live and speak and reflect that difference each day even more as we now are awakened- and there is no going back to slumber.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?’ This is a question well worth great discussion – on reading this I could feel how past concepts have been that discussing ‘energy’ can be vey limiting. A bit like not discussing religion, sex, politics, abuse or any other topic that might ruffle feathers or ask us to stand solid in who we truly are, or exposing of who we are not. Energy in it’s ‘acceptable’ form isn’t limited to science discussions to be valid.
‘The truth of it all is not out there, but watching us silently from deep within the recesses of our core.’ The understanding that we have with us, like a constant sentinel, all the love and life direction possible is truly humbling. There are no excuses for not taking full energetic responsibility when I connect with the power and depth of this truth.
It sure is and is very much needed otherwise we go around thinking that struggle is normal and the only way. For example if everyone around us is tired and needs coffee or sugar to get through the day then we ‘think’ that is normal – then when someone comes along who is enjoying life without needing any stimulants then we get triggered to at least ask the question ok so either they are very strange or what I am doing perhaps is not the best way. I know having just started a new job people at work find it fascinating that I do not drink coffee as wonder a bit how I can get through the day without it!
Isn’t it interesting that a stimulant like coffee (although it smells great and tastes yummy) is the norm just for how people get through the day. This says a lot for the level of exhaustion people are living with. . . And that someone who is stimulant free is the one who stands out.
I see people sipping coffee frequently during the day- constantly topping themselves up. How this became so common is actually baffling.
“We have all had those days when we sit, ponder, and take stock. When time literally stands still for us and it is in those moments that we get to deeply feel the graciousness of life as if it has not been felt before.” Reading this blog was one such moment for me. Thank you.
There is no question of a doubt here, this is true Chetan, and we feel it constantly.
What a breeze to read, I was captivated by every word. You describe a process, the realities and the joy we all know, and therefore it’s an article that resonates deeply.
Energetic responsibility resonates deeply within me and hence the breeziness of it all 😉 Thank you for the appreciation Rosanna.
“It was time to journey back to live what is true” – it really is a journey back, a journey of return rather than an outward exploration – but it is also a return to a way lived before, an ancient lineage of livingness waiting to be relived.
“If everything is energy then why do we choose to not understand it or talk about it in our daily conversations?” – This is a very good question!! We talk so little about energy which is crazy considering how at a fundamental level everything is energy.. And yet not so crazy when we consider that with being honest about energy comes greater awareness of the effect we have in the world and the responsibility that intrinsically comes with this..
Yes, energetic responsibility – a quality that we as a human race seem to work really hard to avoid.
A beautiful blog that offers a deeper understanding about the importance of energetic responsibility, something that is hardly ever talked about and rarely lived in our society. Thankyou Chetan.
thank you Eva. Society is getting there through our reflections lived.
“And when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices.” What a statement, what a blog Chetan thank you. Unfolding back to the love we truly are with self responsibility being the main ingredient.
Thank you Samantha- Yes deepening it all even as I type this.
I heard about the expression Energetic Responsibility so many times, by Serge Benhayon, but you know what Chetan? I cannot hear about it too many times, it always reminds me to go deeper. So thank you for the reminder and the great inspiration, ~ as you say: “I now have chosen to understand that everything is energy”. Noone can escape that fact, we might as well embrace it. Understand it. Live it. There really is nowhere to hide, it all comes back to ourselves and the energy we choose. Such a relief, I can choose how I want my life to be.
Thank you Natalie for answering the call
‘Energetic Responsibility from what I have now come to understand is simple and yet so very magical. How I think, speak, walk and talk has an effect on my immediate surroundings and even beyond that…’ This is a 24/7 responsibility we all have, there is no time off, it makes no difference where we are in the world, what time of day it is, whether we are at work or at home, shopping, swimming, walking, exercising – the responsibility is always there. This means that when I check out into my head, get lost in my thoughts, I am not energetically present and am therefore being irresponsible. Ouch.
hear hear Carmel! So true!
‘Energy’ also fascinated me from a very young age, however, it wasn’t until Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine that I came to the realisation that with the awareness of energy also comes responsibility as we can never separate ourselves from another because of the universal law of everything being energy.
I feel blessed to know you Chetan.
There are many lessons to learn along this journey of the path of energetic responsibility to find something that is within us because I know I have lived many a year making other choices. The great thing is we get lots of repeat opportunities to learn and change our choices until we fully understand the true direction we are heading.
It is indeed so deeply humbling when we awaken to the fact of energetic responsibility and begin to live it. It is not the burden it appears from our place of irresponsibility – for once accepted and embraced its true lightness, joy and naturalness starts to be felt within.
How lovingly supportive is this… “…when I falter and slip, when I am challenged, I understand it’s not about perfection, it’s about unfolding, and so I am learning to allow, appreciate, and accept everything that comes with my choices. This in turn accelerates me towards where I was always meant to be.” No judgment, only evolution… so gracefully expressed Chetan.
I agree Paula, there is an enormous amount of love and respect for the process of evolution in Chetan’s blog, and in the quoted passage in particular.
“But for me it was like I have been preparing all my life to get here; something deep inside of me was always pulsing, magnetically pulling me towards this truth no matter how much or how far I ran from that feeling.” – I can relate to this very much. Despite the choices I was making, I was always seeking truth and I would latch onto something that felt like it was presenting truth but I could always sense it wasn’t and the latest spirtitual venture or complementary healing modality would no longer be the flavour of the month because nothing in my life really changed until I came to the Ageless Wisdom teachings as presented by Serge Benhayon. It was like my whole body, every cell of my being said ‘this is it’.
Very beautiful reflection on life Chetan and how you appreciate every moment, no matter what presents.
Coming back to live who we truly are is a fascinating process and one that takes commitment and dedication, and a willingness to see all of our patterns and behaviours and be honest about them. It’s certainly not the blissed out path to spiritual enlightenment that I wanted it to be, but a far, far deeper experience. It’s been challenging and confronting as it has made me look at stuff I’ve been carrying around for years and to begin to let it go. There is much more of this to go, but being on this path feels amazing: the more I let go of all the stuff that isn’t me, the more I feel what it’s like to truly be me, with less of the outside stuff I’ve attached to dictating who I am.
so true Steve! and We play more than just a part isnt it? We are utterly responsible for it all..
It is such joy to me to rebuild my relationship with that inner knowing that was always there and at moments in my life made me question about the purpose of life, in a way knowing that there was so much more to life then I had lived up to that moment. Until I met Serge Benhayon these moments of clear connection where never reflected to me in the outer world so I slowly slipped back into the life I used to live, mainly unaware of that inner knowing that I now know is always with me. But by reading the book ‘the Way It Is’ many years ago I was coming home to a way of living that I had lived before and new that what I had always had felt was true, that there is another way to live, a way that is in appreciation of all of life and in precise order, the world of energy and with the responsibility that it brings.
It truly is amazing the reflection of truth has. With deep appreciation of Serge for supporting others to reawaken their true quality through his reflection of being his true quality.
Life certainly takes on a whole new perspective when we consider life in its energetic terms and what part we play in being energetically responsible. From the macro of the universe to the micro of our own cellular level there is such a beautiful and natural order that we could choose to live by and with in this unfolding path.
Very true Jenny. Today I had a play with bringing delicateness to every step during a walk – to see what would happen and what I’d feel. With the intention to bring a particular quality I felt like space opened up, I felt responsibility and the impact of my movements, I felt that delicateness be in my feet then through my legs and up to my body. And the gorgeous thing was it was there instantly and then magnified as I continued to choose this quality. From the walk I then opened doors etc with more delicateness. This is the attention to the micro that then adds to the macro.
