Love Yourself - Ra

You are unique. You have no choice. Love yourself. "Uniqueness. Everybody is born with a genetic predisposition to differentiate. We are here to differentiate. And yet the way in which we feel about ourselves, that is, the way in which the not-self feels about itself, is layers upon layers upon layers of conditioning that they've been receiving in terms of comparison, basically from the moment that they came into the world. You know, the parental "don't be bad, be good." "Don't be this, be that." You know, all of the conditioning, "why can't you be like this or that?" And  in a world of the not-self in which the pervasive vanity is that anything can be changed, that anything can be made better, that anything can be improved. In a world, in which two thirds of the population have an undefined ego, and are simply committed to proving themselves in relationship to their conditioned field, human beings, as a result, truly do not like themselves.   I mean, they accept, at a certain level, their not-self fate. That is, not smart enough, pretty enough, fast enough, whatever the case may be and never will be, is a possibility that comes to the not-self, but it is never them. And they never truly get to appreciate the beauty of what it is to be them.   It's what you meet when you meet your Design, you meet these two possibilities. You meet the possibility that is there for you to love. It's unique, it really is perfect. It is beyond the comparison. When you're operating correctly, as yourself, there is nothing to compare to. Nothing. You can only be correct as yourself. This is it. And in being correct as yourself, the main by-product that anyone derives from operating correctly is you change the way in which you move through space. That is, you begin to eliminate resistance, life begins to work for you. I mean, most people who have a relative not-self sense of wellbeing, most of that is derived from comfort. Most of that is derived from not being starving, jobless, diseased. In other words, most of the self-appreciation — if we can put it that way — of the not-self is rooted in the serendipity of whether they are materially fortunate or not. Again, all of these things have nothing to do with the truth, have nothing to do with the beauty of what it is just to be you. See, the love doesn't simply come from recognizing who you really are, the love is a by-product of watching who you are come to life.   And it is in the security that comes with that. The generator that discovers the essential, perfect truth of their response. Never again is there a place of fear in the decision-making. You know, that "this was a mistake," or "I shouldn't have done this," or "I could have done that." These are just mind games. The deeper you settle into your Authority, the deeper you settle into an appreciation of you, of you. And that when you're operating out of your own Authority, you don't determine your value by what others think about you. You find yourself, you find your strength, you find your beauty.   You begin to settle into what it is to be a passenger, and to accept the “limitation” of what it is that you are: your Design, your Profile, your Cross, your Type, your Definitions, your activations, your Colors, your Bases, your Tones, all of it. And just settle in and watch this quite remarkable creature go through its life with grace. It's something to learn to love. It is the essence of things to love oneself, to love the beauty of what it is to be you in this world.   So on this theme week, I'd like to wish you the opportunity in your life to discover this love. It's everything, and out of it, truly out of it comes a quality of love in relationship to the other, whatever that may be, that's very special because it's clean of conditioning.   You are unique. You have no choice. Love yourself."          Ra Uru Hu  2007 Received From Mary Ann, A Human Design Manifesting Generator on Email
