What does Matthew 19:28 mean?

Regeneration is the rebirth of a person through the rising power, when the awakened self takes its seat at the crown and rules the whole being from there. The number 12 is the complete circle of the body's centers, the full wheel of forces a person carries, and the 12 thrones are those centers brought under command, each governing its own tribe of energies within.

Regeneration is the rebirth of a person through the rising power, when the awakened self takes its seat at the crown and rules the whole being from there. The number 12 is the complete circle of the body's centers, the full wheel of forces a person carries, and the 12 thrones are those centers brought under command, each governing its own tribe of energies within. The Son of man enthroned in glory is the higher consciousness seated at the summit of the spine, and to sit and judge is for every awakened center to order and weigh the forces beneath it. The kingdom being described is the reordered body, ruled from within once a person is reborn.

The regeneration: the rebirth of a person as the risen power remakes the whole being The Son of man on the throne of glory: the higher consciousness seated at the crown and summit of the spine The number 12: the complete circle of the body's centers, the full wheel of forces a person carries The 12 thrones and 12 tribes: the awakened centers, each ruling and ordering its own tribe of energies within

  1. When a feeling spikes while you are alone, scrolling or lying awake, sit up straight and let the part of you that is watching stay in charge for one minute. You are not fighting the feeling, you are just not letting it drive.
  2. In a conversation where you feel the urge to interrupt or defend yourself, hold the urge and let the steadier part of you choose the next sentence. One pause, one choice.
  3. Under real pressure, a deadline, a tense call, a child melting down in a store, put your feet flat on the floor and feel the top of your head for a second. Then respond from there instead of from your stomach.

Which part of you has been running the day, and who gave it the job?
