What is Spiritual By-Passing?

Spiritual By-Passing is growing in leaps and bounds these days. As 3D reality continues to collapse, many are searching desperately for ways to escape their struggles, lessons and challenges, comfort their pain, and avoid taking responsibility for their lives. Spiritual By-Passing is a large subject beyond the scope of O.I.S.I. I encourage you to do your research. 

Spiritual By-Passing Statements and Beliefs:

• “Everything happens for a reason.”
• “You create your happiness.”
• “It was for the best.”
• “It was a blessing in disguise.”
• “Good vibes only!”
• “Thoughts and prayers!”
• “The Universe will provide”

Spiritual By-Passing Symptoms:

• Avoiding feelings and or believing you should ascend your authentic experience, especially triggers and feelings of anger and fear
