A few years ago I wrote that  'We cannot heal the world by putting ourselves on the cross'.  This refers to the end of the Martyred Healer paradigm in which we sacrifice ourselves, our joy, peace of mind and heart in the  name of our 'light work', and open ourselves to the Christed Awareness paradigm.

It's a graduation where we become empowered, joyful, light leaders, embodying the sacred and powerful divinity that forces us to choose between being in service as a servant to others in self limiting sacrifice and the Martyred Healer or of service as a source of inspiration in empowered mastery.   We make this choice, usually unconsciously, every day and in every situation. The choices we consider as being possibilities are determined by our beliefs, what we believe is true and what we believe is possible. 

To achieve transformation we must be willing to embody new beliefs - not just think they are a good idea but truly align with, integrate, and embody them as our new belief path.

To embody new beliefs we must be willing to  let go of our 'sacred cows', ingrained beliefs whose release comes at the cost of changing everything we know about ourselves and the world. It's a tough choice.    

A few people accused me of being disrespectful of Jesus on the cross with my comment and that's not what I meant at all. But the image of the crucifixion is the Martyred Healer's logo and that is one of the 'sacred cows' we're going to have to let go of now. Why, with everything else that Jesus did, is the cross his enduring legacy?

Why not focus on the miracles, the insistence that he was no greater than any of us, the 'many mansions' that we have access to, and the divinity which was his parting gift to us? Because Jesus didn't come to be 'the Christ', he came to teach us about being 'Christed', which is the difference between the martyr and the victor, powerless self sacrifice and empowered self awareness.

If we adopt the Christed Awareness paradigm, which is one of the 5D energy models, we have to let go of many sacred cows, including the beliefs that we must suffer, that we aren't powerful, and that we have no control over our lives.
