Dementia Can Be A Joy Or A Misery

It is difficult to imagine how dementia can be a joy. It is easier to see what misery dementia can cause.

Misery is the scarcity of abundance. Abundance is the nature of the Soul. It is the disconnection of our Self from our Soul that causes our misery, because of our disconnection from our source of abundance. The experience of life disconnected from our source can be very miserable.

The Soul is abundantly joyful. It is my connection to the abundance of life that allows my life to be full of joy. Joy & misery are not a duality. That is to say, they are not contrasting extremes of the same energy vibration.

Joy is a pure wavelength of emotional happiness and there is no reason why anybody with dementia cannot be happy. The emotion of joy, when accompanied by mental fulfilment & physical contentment, allows inner happiness to flow into personal experience.

Happiness is a natural spiritual attribute that flows from our Inner Self or Soul Self. When I am with my Soul within, I am with happiness. When I am without contentment, fulfilment or joy, I am without my Soul connection and without my happiness, which is miserable.

Misery is the emotional state of being mentally unfulfilled & physically discontent. It is the emotional state of being unhappy.

In this relative world of dual reality, we experience relative states of misery & happiness, which are seen to be either painful or pleasurable.

Pain & pleasure are a duality of physical life, which are often confused with misery & joy. Pain is my disconnection from my emotional power. In my disconnection from my power, I seek physical pleasure to overcome the pain of my unawakened physical existence.

It is my disconnection from Source that causes my mental & emotional pain. It is my attachment to physical life that causes the effect of either pain or pleasure. I attach myself, in life, to whatever gives me pleasure, whilst trying to avoid whatever gives me pain. Life is relatively miserable when I only have a choice of pain or pleasure.

Joy is a pure vibration of emotional power from my Spiritual Source. Pleasure is an impure frequency of emotional energy that I obtain from an external physical source. When physical experience is fun, I feel the pleasure of being alive, because whatever I am doing is exciting & motivating.

Pleasure is not a pure wavelength of energy that is aligned with my Soul. My Soul flows with joy, whereas the ego seeks pleasure. Pleasure is not joyful but it is a positive energetic experience that is preferable to the negative experiences of life, which are painful.

There is no pain inherent with dementia, neither is there any pleasure. When misery is seen as the absence of pleasure, we try very hard to please people with dementia.

Pleasing other people can be very irritating & painful for them. Pain & pleasure are a duality of the same energy vibration. An emotional energy vibration can have a frequency that is either positive or negative. This means that the frequency of our pleasing someone can be experienced by them as either a positive pleasure or as a negative irritation.

The problem with dementia is that the patient may have great difficulty in deciding what is pleasurable and what is an irritation. Trying to please them may succeed one minute and fail miserably the next.

In trying to overcome the misery of dementia, it is necessary to overcome the pleasing as well. It is not helpful to please people, neither is it beneficial to displease them. It is beneficial to allow them to connect to their own inner source of happiness & joy.

This follows the adage of the Fisherman, where it is better to teach another how to fish than to continually give them your fish.

It does not matter how severe the complaint of dementia appears to be, the potential of the inner source of joy within is ever present. What is seldom present is our personal connection with it.

When I connect to my own inner sense of personal joy, I allow another to share it. I lead them by example to their own inner sense of being joyful. I connect to my own inner sense of joy by being joyful. I feel the fulfilment of joy when I am filled full of joy. When I am filled full of joy, I am content and happiness flows through me in abundance.

Abundance is flowing when there is nothing that I need and nothing that I want because I am connected to the source of everything. In that present moment, there is no pain, there is no misery and there is no unhappiness; just the pure joy of being alive.
