Cognitive Dissonance; The state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, especially as relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change.
(From Oxford Languages)
Paramahansa Yogananda said “environment is stronger than willpower” and to ‘build a hedge around our little plant of self-realization, to protect it.’ Vibration is very subtle. It can change our whole perspective. It’s an amazing topic. Master spoke a lot about it in the spiritual lessons: (The S.R.F. Lessons) and how various people together influence one another for good or bad results. I remember those lessons, when I come across them again I’ll relate them here. Like, you put some materials together in chemistry that can be very productive or destructive. It is sometime before a soul is so strong and powerful to overcome the glitter, that for instance birds of prey dive down to in their momentary desire in temptation. Anyhow that’s my higher self that speaks to me more often when I’m around the ‘right people’. You might describe it as cognitive dissonance as seen in friends, fluctuating up and down depending on where they are sucked into in their environment; Sometimes I could be channeling higher frequencies and at other times lower frequencies I see that in my friends as well.
