"Victim By Choice , Twos Believe, I can make anyone like me"

The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram: Nine Faces of the Soul
by Sandra Maitri

Sandra Maitri's "The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram" is, without doubt, the most insightful and meaningful book on the nine temperaments, but caution potential readers that this is not a "beach read" and is best suited as reading for those who are seriously ready to take a deeper look at their own psycho-spiritual essence and soul. This is not a pop-psychology "personality typing" book, but rather a valuable guide for people on their journey of self-discovery, transformation and self-realization.

The book DOES touch on the Nine Temperaments of the enneagram in the personality type" context most people know it, and it covers the psychological aspects of the different types. The majority of "The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram" is dedicated to a thorough discussion of each of the nine temperaments, examining the way each has "lost touch" with its essence or "Holy Idea;" describing the psychological and environmental circumstances for these losses, and then offering guidance on how to recover the part of the self that has been lost.

The term "sprituality" by no means makes this a "religious" book. Instead, it is a book about understanding and healing our souls, regardless of religious orientation.

The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above. The Enneagram types (Temperaments) are not made up of lists of character traits, but are founded in a person's core values. Each Temperament represents what that person considers something very important to their life such as power, security, harmony, knowledge, fulfillment, i.e.

Your Temperament enables you to make a valuable contributions to your life; but it also causes you to neglect other values, creating a psychological ‘blind spot” for you.

This is why, if you:

You are a Victim by Choice   
Roy E. Klienwachter

There are no victims - accidents do not happen by chance and illness is intentional.

Before we are born and while in the afterlife or beforelife, it is our individualized decision to come to the physical world. We choose our parents and time of birth that will best facilitate what it is we choose to experience in this incarnation or birth time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because we are internally connected at some level of consciousness, all beings are in agreement before our births as to our parents and those who would interact with us after birth.

This must be so if we are in agreement that there is only one consciousness in the universe - one mind that is experiencing physical life through its individualized souls, spirits, or egos. There is logic and agreement with all things physical in order for them to be present or exist in the physical world. A tree can't be rooted unless there is agreement with the earth that it will support the tree. What often appears as random is not - all things have order even in the so called state of chaos.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A forest fire can't exist without something to burn. The trees must agree with nature for a fire to be able to express itself as a forest fire. All of life and all of its possibilities must be expressed or experienced. Therefore a tree cannot be a victim of a forest fire, but a willing participant. The tree expresses its power and autonomy by agreeing to be burned. A fire expresses its power and autonomy by burning the trees - it is natural and deliberate.

It is the creative nature of the one mind to express or experience anything that it can imagine. Physically, it all happens here, in the physical universe.

A plane cannot run into a mountain unless the mountain is there. There is an agreement between the plane, the pilot, and the mountain. A plane crash cannot occur unless these elements are in agreement at some level of consciousness. Now, this may sound absurd on a conscious level and I would agree. However, on another level of consciousness or enlightenment, it all makes sense. Plane crashes are physical facts of life - they are a physical occurrence. There can't be a plane crash unless someone thought of it and manifested the incident. All things come together to make it happen. All objects are expressing their presence by being in the right place at the right time for a physical event to happen. Everything is life whether it is considered inanimate or not - all objects must express their autonomy, their existence by being in the right place and the right time to be observed as autonomous.

Now a mountain can be seen and appreciated without a plane smashing into it. Because plane crashes are imagined and created in our minds - those so called accidents must have opportunity to express themselves as are the spoken words, "plane crash." It may be in your head, but sooner or later it must be spoken in order to be recognized as words or fact.

In the same way that objects express themselves, so do humans. Humans are declaring themselves in every moment of their physical lives. There can be no victims unless an individual wishes to express themselves as a victim. Victimhood in a human convention that must be expressed or manifested by choice, and it is an opportunity. Because very few of us are in communication consciously with our inner consciousness, these things sound ridiculous.

Why would someone want to be a victim? Why would someone want to have terminal cancer? Why would someone want to be murdered, raped, or beaten up?

It sounds cruel, arrogant and insane to suggest that a person would want to be a victim and I would concede that if one cannot see the greater picture, then it would be all of these things. The difference between one that sees themselves as a victim and the one that sees themselves as a willing participant, is that one has power and the other is powerless.

The difference between a victim and the observer is that the observer is judgmental and judges the other as a victim. They are projecting their own feelings about victims onto the other. One could also say that the observer is a victim of their own ignorance or prejudice.

You can never be a victim of circumstance unless at some level of consciousness you agree to be in the right place at the right time to be a victim. No one can do anything to you unless you agree to it at the level of your creativity first - it is done by choice even though you may not consciously understand or agree to it.

Having said that, then it would seem that it is really a good idea to be in contact with your spirit, inner self, or subconscious so that you can be proactive rather than reactive.

All things happen for a purpose - for a reason whether we understand it or not. Once again, there are no victims unless being a victim is what you want to experience.

A battered wife may be considered a victim of her husband - but it is a choice. She always has the choice or opportunity to leave one way or the other. She may not see the choice, but she makes it anyways, subconsciously.

A murder victim puts himself in the right place and right time by choice or in this case poor choice, to be murdered.

Humanity knows that there is another part of themselves that can be communicated with. We pray we do affirmations, chants, dances, meditations and all sorts of things to access that communication.

Mediums, intuitives, channellers all have that ability to contact the subconscious and see future events. Accidents and illness are avoidable if you know that they are probable. The way to make them improbable in your own experience is to not give them energy. If they are in your mind and the more you think about them, the more likely you will experience them. All things imagined are experienced at some level of your consciousness or experience.

There are no such things as natural disasters in that they don't happen randomly. They are created like any other experience and you place yourself in that experience as a victim or not, by choice. Your thoughts about famine are expressed somewhere in the world whether you experience it first hand or not. Your thoughts about war are expressed somewhere in the world whether you are directly involved in it or not. Your thoughts about terrorism are expressed physically somewhere in the world whether you are involved with it or not. Terrorism could not be expressed unless someone or many have thought about it. Denying it or trying not to focus on it gives it just as much energy as practicing it.

If you do not want war, being against war or trying to avoid it, still gives it energy. As long as the word is in your head, you are giving it a place in reality. Think about peace and peace is what you will create - keep peace in your mind, and it is all you will experience.

Think about what you want, not about what you do not want. Think about good health and leave out fear of illness and you will experience good health.

In any situation if you see yourself as a victim with no choice - you have given up your power in favour of experiencing being a victim. Even if you declare yourself as a non-victim you have created your victimhood by using the word. So, if you are not a victim then you are actively participating by choice! All of life's circumstances are opportunities for you to express yourself in what ever manor you choose. They are co-created by you through your subconscious and in agreement with the life force.

There is wisdom behind the phrase "Be careful what you wish for - you may get it." It could also be expressed as "Be careful what you think - you will create it."

Retain your power on all levels of your consciousness and you will always be a participant, give up your power and you will become a victim.

The overall orientation of Sandra Maitri group will be the shifting over time of one's identity and sense of self from the personality or ego to our deeper and ultimate nature — Being; and just as importantly, the integration of this experiential knowledge such that one's everyday life becomes a lived and fulfilling expression of that deeper nature. The confluence in recent decades of the streams of psychological and spiritual wisdom afford a wide range of unprecedented avenues of access to spiritual development. This confluence will be an important part of the orientation of this group.

Did you know?

The Power of Nine is your Key to Happiness and Joy.

There are nine Temperaments. Fifty percent (50%) of your happiness is determined by your Temperament.

Understanding your Temperament Type allows you to work with it and increase your own happiness. The ways individual people inherently view the world/themselves and process information are not the same but do tend to group in different clumps.

Pick the person about that you admire, like and think you are like and click on that number below and listen to the Video.

One way to view this distribution is as nine basic Temperaments Types. They all need different experiences to be really happy.

What do they really want?

Temperament One examples are: Hillary Clinton, Tom Brokaw, Martha Stewart, Al Gore, and Tony Randall. These people want to be good. They have high ideals and value and are attracted to situations where those ideals are met. They want to realize all their potential and help others actualize theirs. They envision making the world a better place to live.

Temperament Two examples are: Bill Cosby, Alan Alda, Nancy Reagan, Dolly Parton, and Pat Boone. These people want to know they are loving. They want to nurture others and foster relationships. They value and are attracted to love. They envision making the world a more loving place to live.

Temperament Three examples are: Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, and Bill Clinton. These people are attracted to and value productivity, industry, and competence. They envision making the world more productive, organized, efficient, and smooth running. They see the universe as chaos and want to really make it a cosmos, a harmonious and orderly system.

Would You Like Help to Determine your Temperament?

Temperament Four examples are: Michael Jackson, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage, Neil Diamond, and Angelina Jolie. These people want to be unique individuals with lots of originality. They enjoy putting their personal touch on everything in which they are involved. They also value beauty and want to make the world a more beautiful place to live.

Temperament Five examples are: Bill Gates, Albert Einstein, Howard Hughes, George Lucas, and Karl Marx. These people long for wisdom, understanding, knowledge, truth. They want to make the world a more enlightened place by discovering what is real and true and making it more intelligible to others.

Temperament Six examples are: Helen Palmer, Michael Moore, Tom Hanks, Rush Limbaugh, Richard Nixon, and Mel Gibson. These people want to make the world a safer, more secure, more reliable, more trustworthy place to live and they will question anyone’s authority in their effort to do so. They value loyalty in themselves and others and stand by their commitments.

Would You Like Help to Determine your Temperament?

Temperament Seven examples are: Robin Williams, Steve Jobs, Tom Hanks, Anthony Quinn, Richard Branson and Terry Bradshaw. These people want to enjoy life and experience all its possibilities. They value joy and variety. They envision making the world a more delightful place to live.

Temperament Eight examples are: Martin Luther King, Jr., FDR, Sean Connery, Donald Trump, and John Wayne. These people want to live life fully and freely. They are attracted to, appreciate, and effectively use power. They envision using their strength to influence others and bring about a more just world where power and resources are equitably distributed.

Temperament Nine examples are: Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln, Jimmy Stewart, Carl Jung, and Dwight Eisenhower. These people want to feel at one with others and at home in the universe. They value peace, harmony, and unity. They envision making the world a more harmonious, ecumenical, and comfortable place to live for everyone.

Why do we use numbers?

Names such as: Twos, Giver, Caretaker, Helper, Nurturer, or Advisor, are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.

We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.

The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.

No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society. You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”

People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.

The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.

Why aren’t all people with a given Temperament Type successful?

You probably know a bunch of people with the same Temperament Type. Why are some successful and others are not. Why the difference? The difference is Emotional Intelligence. We use Emotional Quotient. (EQ) as a shorthand to describe Emotional Intelligence.

A person may have a high IQ. They did well in school, maybe have a college diploma or even an advanced degree. They may even be in MENSA, the select high-IQ club and still fail in business and relationships. Why are they not successful?

The answer:

Your IQ determines 20 % of your success, which leaves 80% to other forces. This is stated by Daniel Goleman the Author of “Emotional Intelligence.”

A person with a high IQ does not mean they know how to manage their thoughts and feelings any more successfully than a person with a low IQ. Success requires taking the emotional data, making sense of that data, and integrating it into your decision-making. People with higher EQ does this better.

By increasing your EQ you can use your thoughts and emotions of your Temperament Type to make the best possible decisions. Increased EQ help you get optimal results from your relationships with yourself and others.

EQ challenges the conventional belief that emotions are in the way of good decisions. By increasing your EQ it is possible to learn how to use your emotions to make better decisions. By increasing your EQ, it is possible to increase your wisdom and energy required for high performance. The Increasing your EQ is a teachable life skill. If people get better at these life skills, everyone benefits: The brain doesn't distinguish between being a more empathetic manager and a more empathetic father
