Consciously Creating

If you are in the present moment… centered and alert… and you focus on only one thing without distraction, then you have highest possibility of bringing the object of your focus into your life. This applies to anything you would like to create or experience. This process of  consciously creating allows us to develop a calm discrimination… an inner feeling sense… about the specifics of possible futures or outcomes that would be best for us.

This is why calming the mind through peaceful breathing or meditation is so important to our spiritual progress. The peace… or agitation… we bring to meditation becomes part of the feeling sense we experience around our future possibilities. We can sew fear and low self-esteem into the future or we can approach the process with peace and confidence. What we dwell upon will come alive in our lives. This conscious creation process gives us a head start on cleaning up the future before it arrives!

On Being Deliciously Fullfilled By Life

Can you recall those grade school years when vocabulary words and the inevitable vocabulary quizzes were part of the weekly routine? They were fundamentals in our process of learning and evolution. When it came to learning words, however, we were not told the whole story. Most of our school teachers never mentioned that words… especially spoken words… have an energy or vibration to them. They likely never mentioned that words and word energy are ultimately linked in our psyches to thinking, feelings and how we act.

This is probably a good thing. That’s because it takes practice… trial and error… to master these complex core awarenesses. Basically no one can “tell” you about feelings and such. You just have to feel them and discern for yourself which ones you want to experience the most. AND we need to keep careful track to the results in our head and heart.

Let me cut to the chase. Life itself is speeding up. Events are happening faster and faster in our world. Energy is spiraling and spiraling into countless new possibilities. “Time is speeding up”, I have heard some suggest. Resisting this process can create great and undesirable friction in one’s life. Learning how to navigate this process is the greatest of miracles. It can and will expand an individual into their life’s purpose and a sense of fulfillment if one participates and dances with it a bit.

If you are heading toward ANY goal for any purpose… a ‘better’ job, a new relationship, a new home, a family, anything… and you hit a wall, you are stymied, you lose self-confidence or get blocked in any way… then probably you’re going to feel frustrated. Let it happen. In the midst of your frustration stop beating yourself up for 1 millisecond and feel how delightful, desirable and deliciously fulfilling the goal is going to be. You will be delighted with the results. You will begin to see life in an entirely new way.

“Things” (I used the term advisedly) ARE moving faster. Whatever we want to create, build, experience, hear, see, taste, smell or grow into is really and truly germinating within us at the speed of consciousness. Our dreams are safely within us already and they are ready to be revealed.

The Dance of Effort

 The 'Dance of Effort' is what I call it. You want to create change in your life and you proceed to put forth effort to achieve the desired change. You know you want the desired change. You know you deserve it. You may even feel the desired goal almost in your grasp.
  
On many occasions once you set this process in motion a kind of polarization takes place in your energy field. The thoughts, feelings, beliefs and past experiences that run counter to the desired change seem to pop up everywhere. "How could I possibly think that I could pull this off?" "You need a degree to do that I don't have one." "I could never afford that." And so on and so on and so on. At this point you have before you what looks like an opportunity to fight with yourself and push against old beliefs. Of course whatever negative thoughts you push against will only give them more strength and deepen your cycle of confusion.

Consider the following. When… feeling on the verge of a new future… you find yourself becoming dispirited by the naysayer in your head, immediately ask yourself these questions. Ask "how do these thoughts make me feel?" Next ask "now that I feel this way do I want to continue feeling this way beyond this moment?" Then create and feel a positive thought form within you by tapping into your sense of knowing and truth about what is ahead for you. If that is too difficult because you are really bogged down or conflicted, then step outside into the sunshine, breathe, move or blink your eyes a few times to break the spell of your limited thinking, then step into the new thought form that will help you break through to the next level.

Have fun. It's a dance after all.

Being Open to Possibility

The amount of "work" it takes to evolve depends in large part on our adaptability. "Adaptability" refers to our capacity to be open to all possibility. Cultivating openness to all possibility is primary among the spiritual arts. The more we practice it, the less choices we have to make and life becomes more fluid and less effortful.

The Teacher Once Asked His Student...

The teacher once asked his student, "Do you know where all of creation comes from… where everything you experience in your reality has its source?"

The student dared not to express his ignorance in words and merely shook his head. The teacher took a step closer to the student and with his index finger the teacher inscribed a circle in the air around the student's head and said, "Right here."

HERE'S SOMETHING I KNOW FOR SURE #2

Whatever you feel that you are here on Earth to do, whatever you feel your life purpose to be, or whatever it is that turns you on creatively at a cellular level... the Universe will deliver exactly that to your doorstep.
 
Discern and grow that feeling. Meditate on it from time to time until it becomes Absolute Knowing and Truth for you. Once you are able to do that, the choices in your life will greatly simplify. Actually you will then have only two choices remaining to you. In any given moment... no matter what the circumstances... you will have the choice to follow your sense of Knowing and Truth or to follow your fears, patterns and old stories.
 
This is called "being on the tip of the arrow of consciousness."

HERE'S SOMETHING I KNOW FOR SURE #1

The next time you hear someone complaining about another person, lovingly remind them that this is the Earth plane, The Earth plane is not designed for perfection. It's designed for evolution. The ultimate motivating force of the Universe is evolution.

That means everything we are and we are a part of is here to evolve... to grow in consciousness and self-awareness. Perfection is a tool of the fearful. Evolution is a tool of the fearless.

Remind yourself of this, too, from time to time. You'll know your "perfecting" when you try to make things happen, become intolerant of others or experience anxiety. When you extend yourself into the world through your sense of Knowing and truth about why you're here, then you're allowing and evolving.
