Expanding on last week’s episode, Living by Christ’s Design, Tonya talks about spirit and superpowers and everything in between. In her discussion with Dave Stone, they unveiled some of the more challenging aspects of truly walking the world as God intended. This brings up all kinds of questions about religion, spirituality, metaphysics, magic and all things disruptive to the status quo. Listen in as she dissects the complexities and searches for the shared symbolism in all of it. 

Hello everyone, this is Tonya Dawn Recla, your Super Power Expert. Today we’re expanding on last week’s show of Living by Christ’s Design with Dave Stone. And today’s episode is Spirit and Superpowers. And the reason why we’re coming back on and talking about this stuff is because it’s… There was so much complexity, right? That gets brought up when we talk about living as the divine, walking the world as the divine, modeling after what we think Christ’s teachings were, all of that stuff. Where does ego come into it? Where does humility come into it? How do we do this and not succumb to just the headiness of it all? And how do we make sure that we’re walking in alignment with the divine and what that guidance is and not veering too far to the left or the right? Of either too much self-deprecation or I’m not worthy or too much “I’m the greatest thing since sliced bread” and it’s a struggle, right? That’s a walk that a lot of people are on. It’s like their own razor’s edge.

I’m capable of rationalizing just about anything to myself.

And if you don’t take a look at these questions and say, “Okay, well, how do we know, right? What is the true gauge that we can use to know?” Because I don’t know about you all, but I’m highly intelligent, very educated. I’m capable of rationalizing just about anything to myself. You have to be kind to ask yourself those things. “Am I a trustworthy source of information in those moments? Is somebody that I know a trustworthy source of information in those moments and not only that personal experience with it, but how do we reconcile?” We throw a lot of terms around here like God, spirit, the divine, abstract frequency, Christian, Christ, consciousness, Christianity, religions, spiritual.

How do we start making sense of it all and how much do we water it down or make it kind of wishy washy if we start to merge terms? Is it possible to kind of put all that stuff together and find some sort of thread and symbolism in it all and not deviate from just the awesome power within it all, right? Because once you start kind of throwing everything into the pod, it all kind of gets mushed up together. And sometimes, the potency of the messages gets lost in that process. And there’s so much confusion in this, right? I know we hear from you all, we know you’re listening in and you’re trying to make sense of it all. And sometimes, we have different aspects of ourselves where it just doesn’t make sense, right? And it’s our own form of obstinance and resistance, but at the same time, it’s like we desperately want to understand it and aspects of it just simply cannot, right?

We’re trying to comprehend oneness with a very finite, limited human mind. And so, how do we navigate all of those things? And so, where I want to start with that today is the idea of spirit. I know a lot of you talk about spirit and communicating with spirit and yet, when we then try to kind of bridge that gap into, let’s say, since we’re talking about the episode I did with Dave, kind of the Christian doctrine and the Holy Spirit, right? Well, the Holy Spirit and the Christian trinity has a very different kind of feel to a lot of people because of that construct and because of collective stories and wounds around that, versus spirit, right? In the more kind of Wu Metaphysical, kind of spiritual spaces. Well, what if they’re one and the same, right?

Ultimately, what we’re doing is upgrading your operating system.

So how do we kind of abide by our own guidance and our own kind of path that we’re walking? Because we do believe that everybody has their own individual path. We’re put together in these very complex ways by design on purpose and put into specific environments and specific experiences and specific geography and whatever the case may be. Because there is something specific that you are able to do in a way that nobody else can, right? That’s the uniqueness in our design. And so, at SuperPower Experts, we start people off in Super Power Design. We look at, what are your predisposed superpowers? And I get it folks, recognize when we talk about this stuff. Ultimately, what we’re doing is upgrading your operating system. That’s the work that across the board, whether it’s religion, spirituality, whatever, it’s this idea of being able to be more expansive and to be able to not just live the limited mortal existence, but be able to kind of expand beyond that and remember yourself as an aspect of the divine even while you’re embodied.

And so, I know a lot of you have had awakening experiences or you’re able to access the divine in certain moments, but that’s a very different situation than walking the world as the divine then being that in the world than abiding by that here doing that work, letting the words that come out of your mouth be spoken by spirit, not you, right? Giving it all up. All of the analogies of squeezing through the eye of the needle and all that stuff that we talked about on the call with Dave. And so, you have to kind of ask yourself, “What if it is all kind of the same?” And yet it’s really not. Because there are aspects clearly in Christianity where the interpretation is, it is the only way to salvation.

And then there… I’m much more well versed in that doctrine than in a lot of others. But the similarities that come up is the divine in all of it, right? And most people in these conversations are willing to acknowledge one God. Even in the polytheistic kind of perspectives, a lot of those lead to this idea of those are aspects of a singularity. We can talk about oneness all day long, but then when we start to get divisive about what Christians believe versus what Jews believe, versus what Hindus believe, any separation at all prevents oneness. Because it’s a natural duality. So those are some of the things that we’re going to address here today as we kind of deconstruct all of that. But before we do that, we’re going to go to a quick break.

And of course, I know so many of you have wanted to know: How do you get more engaged with us? What is this work that you’re doing? How do you access your superpowers, right? So, you can go to superpowerexperts.com and click on the Super Power Programs tab. It’s a really great way to start dipping your toe into being some of this in the world and to walking that path as the divine and whether you’re a believer or whether you really, really want to believe. It’s a great construct to play in, in a collaborative, safe environment that supports you in your development. So be sure to check that out and stay tuned, because when I come back from the break, we’re going to expand on this stuff further. So, come right back with us.
