Many years ago a radio show called"The Shadow knows" was a source of entertainment on Saturday night for the whole family. The show started with creepy organ music as a creaking door opens a deep scary voice echoing saying,'The Shadow knows"then a laugh that sounded evil and breathtaking was heard by the listeners.The stories made the families huddled together in fear as they listened to the eerie music and voices.The stories were about the fears of shadows and darkness and left the audience hanging on for the ending of every tale Lalmont Cranston told with mystery and danger lurking behind every word and sounds that they heard on the radio.
The radio was used then and still is used to created imagination in the listening audience. Imagination may be considered our shadow side because it is the unknown inescapable part of the human brain still waiting to be explored.We all have thoughts of danger and fear and the unknown. We do want to escape the everyday stresses of reality that causes us to perform in a certain way not natural to our soul purpose. We all wear a mask and play a role and walk in the shadows of our light inside.What others see is our shadow and a light shining through us is rarely observed unless we become the true-self of the light.We often hide in our own shadow for safety or security because we are not willing or ready to expose the light in us. What others think we are is not who we are inside.When we look in the mirror we don't see our soul we see a reflection of what other see in us.We dress for others and wear make-up for others and want others to tell us how we look to them.Are living in our own shadow of doubts and fears?When we stop looking in mirrors and doing things all theses things for the approval of others we go inward to our real beauty of our soul we change our perceptions.The inner light removes the shadows of fear and doubts of who we are in Christ.
Is the physical world a shadow an illusion of the light?Is there a veil of deceit covering our outside world? There was a song called "Standing in the shadows of love" and the words said,"waiting for the heartaches to come" can we be standing in the shadows of God's love?By thinking and reading many verses in the Bible the shadow concept is woven through the words like a key to the light and the darkness.We all struggle with the duties of light and dark and right and wrong. Are there two but one light?One soul one God or source of light? We are connected and not divide by the words.We are love and light both equally. The shadows are our fallen state of awareness we allowed to keep us hidden from the world. Yes, we are all hiding our light inside until we drop our shadow mask we have been told we have to wear to conform to the world.The awakening of out own light inside is a gift of our free will to choose to live in a shadowed reality of the fakeness or the real true-self of our light.All of the outsides of us is a projection of each reflection of the shadows others have created. What are you projecting shadows or lights? Does your life reflect your inner light that creates life?
Many have said, the ego is the shadow side of each of us. The ego is our protector and it creates the shadows of this world but not the inner shadows.The inner soul is not overshadowed by the ego unless a person has allowed the world into their true reality of who they are.This is the reason we need free will to keep operating in each human on our planet.The ego will create doubts and fears to teach us to fear ourselves when we are immature so we can grow spiritual strong inside.When we become aware that we don't need to fear our own selves anymore we have overcome the pride and judgments of the ego.We start trusting in ourselves and our intuition and start growing spiritually. We don't judge the shadows of the world because we know they are not part of the light in us.
Walking in the light instead of walking in the shadows is a born again experience. A renewal of the mind means the observer is the dreamer of the dream-illusions of the shadows of evil.It is evil in the world and this is why we see shadows and images with our human eyes. "Overcome evil with good"is short verse in the Bible. "Fear not" is written 360 times. When we fear the shadows or demon images of evil intent we are allowing the shadows to become our reality.We are good, not evil, we are light, not dark! This is not only a perception is it the way, the truth and the light Jesus spoke about.
The lost boy story called "Peter Pan" was all about the loss of his shadow.He was so upset that he had to have it but yet he could fly and remain young without it.Did the writer of that story know something about the shadow? Tinker Bell was a little light that followed Peter in the story to protect him.Stories, music, and imaginations have deep conscious meanings to our collective awareness.The shadows of our childhood memories still dance in our thoughts as we create new memories in the present moments.Finding our enlightenment through the shadows of darkness,
