Philosophy:LifePower
LifePower, (LP), is an Applied Spiritual Philosophy that attempts to improve the lives of people whilst focusing on the personal life span, using and applying a variety of tools and exercises.[1] LP focuses on the power of the self, in the relief of suffering from past traumatic experiences and seeks to meet a high level of consciousness, communication and serenity.[2] It consists of several techniques as well as practices, called “drills” and draws on so-called 'Listening Processes'.[2] The LP philosophy´ was founded and created by Dani Lemberger after he studied in-depth general philosophies on life, self and existence which in combination with studying Ron Hubbard´s philosophy, led him to develop the LifePower philosophy.[3][4] LifePower focuses on the power of the self, in the relief of suffering from past traumatic experiences and seeks to meet a high level of consciousness, communication and serenity.[5] It is based on the idea, that the human being is an eternal spirit. The philosophy founder claims that by applying it, a person can enhance their abilities, attain and gain personal power to create an enjoyable and meaningful life for themselves.[5]
LifePower philosophy
The LP philosopy seeks to improve people's lives, draws on exercises called drills, aiming to relief a person from past traumas, which according to LP theory, human beings experience over their life span. The philosophy aims that people re-gain (back) “power” to improve their lives and to reach their goals. Therefore, it consists of a variety of techniques, tools and practices with the aim to reach the so-called 'State of Clear'.[5]
LP claims it is not a religion, rather an Applied Spiritual Philosophy and has its origins in Ron Hubbard´s book of 1950, Dianetics.[1]
In 2017, the Israeli Dani Lemberger after studying Hubbard`s philosophy in depths for 37 years simplified the philosophy to make it accessible for the broad public. Lemberger's focus was preserving Hubbard’s philosophy in a long-term way, ensuring it remained in its original form as well as accessible for every human being.[1]
LifePower: Applied life philosophy
LP focuses on strengthening people's self-conscious and self-confidence and practices being confident and serene on their personal way, when reaching for their goals. Therefore, in the center of the philosophy is the term “power“ and on the person (the spirit) gaining back power over their lives.LP posits that power is the condition, when a person attains and achieves each of their life goals, personal intentions and conditions got set and have been met.[2]
The Being in LifePower (LP): The Spirit
In the center of the LifePower philosophy stands the spirit. LP states that each person is a spirit. According to the philosophy, the spirit owns and operates the human body. The philosophy asserts, that the spirit is immortal.[2]
Survival and Decision Making Processes
Survival is a key theme of the philosophy. Following LP, survival is a key theme in decision-making processes. Decision making as well a central theme, which is perceived necessary to improve human survival and to reach personal life goals. Hence, a good decision is one, which secures and ensures the spirit's survival.[2]
The Mind: Data
Over one's life span the spirit collects data. The philosophy states, that this is an automatically happening process. According to LP, the spirit's existence consists out of thinking and accumulating data. And in its final step, to analyze and apply data.[2]
The Mind: Data Storage
Following LP are data which the spirit collects, stored in the mind, for later usage. Every person organizes data, according to subjects and types of information. Information on a similar (subject) and on the same subject stand in relation to one another, and LP calls this a “chain”. However, besides grouping gained data according to themes and subjects, another relevant aspect is time. The LP philosophy claims that a person`s mind creates for this matter a so-called "time track". Data are stored according to themes and according to time and kept on the time track.[2]
The Aware Mind
The philosophy claims, that the stage in which a person receives information (data) is the state of awareness. LP states, a person remembers information only when experiencing these comfortably. Having the ability to receive, to remember and to storage information is according LPthe ability to “confront”. Every person has information that they do not remember as well as others. Following the philosophy, this means the being is not in control of these data and information. Being in charge and in control, would mean that the being is in an aware state. LP labels this the “Aware Mind”.[2]
The Reactive Mind
The Reactive Mind is working with experiences and information a person has or is not experiencing in a comfortable way. This means that, negative happenings and experiences, are not getting stored in the Aware, but in the Reactive Mind. Past events evoke in the future certain negative reactions. This is, since these stand in direct connection to harm, pain, which a person is not comfortable with . According to LP, the person themselves is not aware of this process and thereby its declared as an unconscious process.[2]
However, negative experiences such as a car accident have severe consequences for the mind. According to LP belief, a person might develop an uncontrolled fear of, for instance blue cars. Hence, a person reactions: false believes get created, such as all blue cars mean harm and danger. Hence, these false information will serve the being later on, to react in a certain manner, out of having experienced something not comfortably.[2]
Trauma
LP considers negative experiences a 'Trauma'. The philosophy distinguishes between a physical and an emotional trauma. Traumas in the Reactive Mind will build up over time and over a person's life span, to a negative charge, over which the person will not have any control later. This means, a person cannot control their own reactions in certain situations, based on negative experiences in the past, such as being scared when seeing a blue car.[2]
Therefore, LP offers techniques and tools to work on traumatic events and to neutralize these to give a person relief from trauma and to bring a person, in its final goal, to the so-called 'State of Clear'. The Clear is a person without negative charge hence a person without a Reactive Mind, only having an Aware Mind.[2]
