The Michael Teachings / Personality Game - An OverviewEarth from space (public domain image)

What are the "Michael Teachings"? 

Our name for this system is "The Personality Game" - a fun way to learn about yourself and others.  

Be kind to each other, for these teachings mean nothing without agape.  . . . Michael 

The name "Michael" is simply one way to name a system of personality understanding (or "teaching").  It has no real significance other than to make it known in some definitive way.

This teaching is not a belief system and is not meant to be taken at face value.  It does not require belief to be valid.

It does ask that you validate it for yourself. You decide what parts you can use and what parts you cannot.

With the knowledge of this system, you can choose whether to operate from the positive parts of your personality - or from the negative parts of your personality.  When you come from the positive parts, you are acting out of true personality.  That is how your essence (or your inner being) can grow and express itself.  When you come from the negative parts, you are acting out of false personality.  This is deception, and results in more struggle and strife to accomplish your purpose.

Before you can accept others, you must learn to accept yourself.

It is a universal law that you can only love others to the degree that you are able to love yourself.  So, in this teaching, you begin by studying yourself.  Through this process, you develop a greater understanding of yourself - and of the challenges and agreements you have set out to fulfill in this lifetime.  Through this process, you can develop a greater tolerance toward yourself and attain the balance that allows you to act as appropriately as possible and to actualize your fullest potential.

The written word becomes carved in stone.  Please do not "believe" what we have written here, but check it out for yourself.  And once you have mastered it, let it go (adapted from The Michael Handbook and Michael: The Basic Teachings)

Evolution of the Michael Teachings

Many modern schools of philosophy and psychology represent facets of this system. Readers of Abraham Maslow, Carl Jung, Eric Erikson and Sigmund Freud will find a ring of familiarity (particularly in the use of archetypes).  Elements of this system were taught by George Gurdjieff, P.D. (Peter) Ouspensky and Rodney Collin.  Many of the underlying tenets resonate with Eastern philosophy, especially Sufism.
