Creativity

Love Message: Ownership

You don’t really own anything, but whatever you think you own is given power over you.

Whether it’s material possessions, emotional patterns, children, or physical conditions - if you consider it yours, your awareness is preoccupied with thoughts about keeping it, improving it, controlling it or overcoming it - leaving little or no space for present enjoyment.

All forms are just for creative play. See what’s in front of you in this moment, appreciate what you can, and remember that it’s your reflection - not your possession.

Not by Works

Because the majority of humans identify with a false sense of self, most of us sacrifice Being in favor of doing.

We have conditioned ourselves to believe that hard work and struggle is the way to create a meaningful life. In accordance with those beliefs, we sacrifice our health, happiness and peace of mind to meet the expectations for 'success' and 'service' created in the mind.

But our real power is our creativity, not physical or mental prowess. Our human abilities to calculate and act are only tools for the maneuvering of form toward that which has already been created in thought. To the extent calculation and/or action is substituted for creativity, humanity creates their own suffering.

Since most of us have been conditioned to project thought energy that reflects our beliefs in physical labor and/or mental manipulation as a means to create a life, we wind up working ourselves into mental and physical dis-ease in our endeavor to attain a fleeting sense of self worth. Fear and fatigue permeate the being when awareness is focused in a competitive state of mind because awareness is the conduit for source energy, and the more awareness is mired with belief created out of judgment that separation is real, the more the conduit to the Breath of Life is constricted.

When we work ourselves into what feels like bondage, it's because our energy of awareness has been constricted and thus we are not allowing the essence of freedom/clarity/peace to penetrate perception - it's like having our back to the sun and believing the shadow we cast to be the only reality. This limited vision causes many people to eventually resign their self to a life of mental, physical and spiritual dissatisfaction because they can see no other way.

In a state of delusion, the mind presents thoughts that point out all the circumstantial difficulties between what we are and what we wish we could be, while condemning people whom we perceive as greedy, selfish, unfair, spoiled or abusive. Then we may endeavor to work feverishly toward what we think we deserve and/or use mental manipulation to control people or situations.

Any 'success' while in a state of delusion creates difficulty in the attainment and the journey to that attainment is fraught with feelings of guilt, greed, deprivation and resentment which do not naturally subside after 'success' is declared. In an effort to feel better, many 'successful' people create a 'charitable' self image by giving money to causes or offering service to help the so-called less fortunate. However, since a delusional person's 'charity' is only an extension of the same ignorance that led to the benefactor's dis-ease (ie: fearful beliefs are taken as true), even in their effort to be helpful, one only creates more dis-ease.

The truth is that every single person on Earth is born into this material environment as powerful creators, not by our own works but through honoring all desires, devotion to the truth of 'who we are', and willingness to take inspired and detached action when opportunity to share our unique gifts is presented. This means that if action cannot be offered as a labor of love (without expectation), rest and rejuvenation are in order until inspiration returns.

Through the persistent surrendering of perception to thoughts that align with the soul, especially in moments of delusion (fearful beliefs are taken to be true), one allows perception to be inspired, and the action steps which facilitate the 'evidence' of that inspiration become obvious and feel Joyful.

Until we are able to sacrifice the egocentric need for self meaning, we cannot fully experience the blessings and beauty that we have come forth to create. By releasing the idea that we have to do anything at all, we re-learn to enjoy being in the present moment without worry or despair; and Life is allowed to flow in a manner that commands peace of mind and manifestations of like kind.

Be true to the Real You and let your presence be a testament to the Love that you are.

Channeled Message: Becoming

Just as All of Life is becoming according to collective thought, so too is your personal 'reality' becoming according to your own thought.

Condemning anything trains the focus of your awareness upon what you have rejected about what IS, thus causing what's been rejected to become more prevalent in your world while limiting your ability to imagine, and thereby create anything new.

Daily Thought: Thought

How does that thought make you feel? Thoughts have creative power - they resonate throughout the Universe and beyond to draw whatever is a vibrational match to your feelings for the ongoing redefinition of your self, your life and your world.

Invocation of Presence

For the purpose of this article, "Presence" means conscious overview of the thoughts and feelings being entertained within your awareness. Your physical body can only be focused into a single location at any point in time, and when your Presence is focused there too, experiences are seamlessly digested and your perspective is advanced for the evolution of your world.

The only thing that prevents you from being fully Present is internal conflict which manifests as emotion. Emotion makes your thought based perceptions feel real, and the emotion you are feeling is an indication of how much Presence you are allowing around and between your thoughts.

Specifically, all thought is a patterned mental/emotional response, which leads deeper into unconsciousness in the absence of conscious overview (Presence). Presence directs your awareness toward those thought patterns that feel more closely attuned with your non-emotional yet eternally Joyful essence. In this regard, the closer your thoughts feel to contentment, the more presence you are allowing around thought - while less contentment means you are allowing less presence.

So the question then becomes "how can I feel contentment when I really hate what's happening?" The answer to that question is Acceptance and Appreciation - which “happens” within the remembrance that everything happens for you.  That remembrance can be invoked by slow, deep breathing and the consistent allowance of silent space between thoughts.

It's futile to resist thoughts that you think you should not be having, because it's the having of those thoughts that inspires your creativity. Simply allowing Presence around and between thoughts leads your awareness to thought patterns that feel better, while resistance to your thoughts leads in the opposite direction.

Contentment is not a goal that you have to achieve, but the emotional direction in which Presence leads your thinking irrespective of circumstance.

All that you perceive is only a reflection of the feelings that you have allowed to take form through the focus of your thought, and your conscious aspect (Presence) feels like the ultimate bliss/pleasure/joy/comfort - transcending all emotion. Just by looking for things in your perception that please you, and/or imagining what would please you more, you are invoking Presence for the creation of more pleasure in your world.

Conversely, to the degree you are focused on things in your perception that evoke anger, worry, sorrow, desperation, etc. - you are resisting presence and relying instead upon Ego aka fear - which is only capable of offering thoughts that evoke more fearful feelings which are then reflected in your world.

The temptation to be driven by unconscious thought comes in the form of things and people (including yourself) that you don't like, or want to change. Your perception of such things immediately decreases your happy feeling because it shifts more of your awareness away from the moment and into the fear-based Egoic mind.

This is not to say the Egoic mind is a bad thing, or that feeling uncomfortable emotion should be avoided. This is about being aware of how much Presence is being allowed at any given time so that you can navigate your awareness back into alignment with 'who you are' when you're ready.

The more you practice allowing Presence, the easier it will come to you, and your world will evolve in a way that is ever more pleasing from your perspective. Amaze yourself by giving your awareness over to the only aspect of yourself that is capable of creating a world you might describe as "heaven", and exalt your material aspect in this very moment in time.

Beyond Illusion

Click Here to Discover Pure Essential Oils that can Help You See Beyond the Illusion of this World

Jesus is a being in existence who had a life experience, while God is existence itself. Just like all people, Jesus was both human and being. Our human aspect is created and sustained by God, while our being aspect is God's presence. Without both aspects, there could be no life experience.

God is the same one who creates, sustains and observes the experience of everything in creation. Everything that is not human is perfectly comfortable being unified with existence, but the human ego is so attached to the physical/material self that as soon as our minds develop beyond infancy, we have great difficulty seeing ourselves as anything but separate from God, each other and everything else.

The entire material world exists in our perception. Our material self aka ego determines which experiences we will have based upon the thought energy we project, while our spiritual aspect observes and orchestrates the events and circumstances of our life for the highest and best interest of our being (which is not separate from existence).

Notice that according to the Christian belief system, Jesus is God. Thus seeing Jesus in anyone would be the same as seeing God in them. Even this belief makes it plain that our inner essence is God - but the manipulative mind keeps us so bound to delusion that we cannot see the true reality even when it is in plain sight.

It is this delusion that is the cause of all conflict amongst humans and between humans and other aspects of nature.

Jesus was a human who allowed his inner essence to be expressed more fully than most humans allow, because he developed his inner vision to see beyond mental illusion. In order for Jesus followers to get beyond mental illusion, they must go beyond what they know of Jesus and access their inner essence.  I'm sure Jesus was a great guy, but to follow him is really only following a mental concept of him - which is illusion, and we remain bound to illusion as long as we limit ourselves in this manner.

As long as we keep ourselves bound to the illusion of separation, our egos continue to project for what we consider "punishment" for our shared reality - while our spiritual aspect Joyfully creates the manifestation of whatever the ego projects. However, when we achieve the level of awareness whereby the ego recognizes our spiritual aspect (aka Godliness aka God essence) as our guiding Light, we are able to see and understand the mental patterns that create blessings - and send our thought energy there to create Heaven.

Until such time, religious believers and non-believers alike will continue to hate what the ego has created while projecting for more hateful manifestations in the world.

It takes great courage to be who we really are, but the benefits speak for themselves and they become readily apparent in our lives. Allow the real You to have presence in your life, and command creation accordingly.

Spiritual Wing Readings

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Erica Hearst, an intuitive woman with the ability to see the spiritual wings of everyone and everything in the material world.  According to Erica, the details of our wings depicts the progression of our spiritual journey thus far, as well as the aspects of our spirituality that are currently being developed.

Drawing of Hope's Spiritual Wing - June 2010

Erica has also been gifted with the ability to draw the wings as she sees them, and with stunning detail.  Erica can even visualize the wings without the physical presence of the person or object to which they belong.  In fact, she can perform readings for anyone, anywhere, even if she has never met them in person.

Erica’s wing readings consist of a single wing drawing followed by a verbal interpretation of its spiritual meaning. Since the wings look identical to Erica, she focuses on one of them to capture all of the necessary detail.

The wing drawing takes Erica about three hours to complete, with her clients generally not being present during that time.  Her client is presented with the finished product on fine art paper, at which time Erica offers her interpretation and answers any questions.

I am amazed at the detail and fine attributes captured by Erica in her drawing of my wing, and her interpretation provided well timed guidance along my spiritual path. If you are reading this, it may be time for you to see what your wings look like, and gain some insight into their meaning.

Erica’s spiritual wing readings can be performed for anyone, anywhere.  Just call or email Erica for an appointment. Phone: 714-458-6844 or Email: Tmttq86@yahoo.com

It's generally beneficial to have a new wing reading every six months to one year in order to check in and keep on track with our spiritual development.

Seeking Christ

Christ cannot be recognized by anyone who does not have the "eyes to see". If we expect the only Christ to have been crucified thousands of years ago, not to return until sometime in the future, we do not seek and cannot recognize the living Christ that is here now.

When we develop our inner vision, we can recognize the Christ in all people. That recognition is an energetic summoning of the inner Light to penetrate the layers of mind, memory and emotion - and live through the physical form.

In this way, we promote our collective evolution toward the peaceful reality that is our birthright.

We are so intricately connected to one another that we cannot be separate except through mental perception. We are also attracting everything that we experience.

When our thoughts only regurgitate what we already know of humanity, our energy serves to reinforce the patterns of mind that are already being followed.

If we do not deliberately access our creativity by offering thought outside of what's rational, we are creating by default. Most people are creating more of what we don't want because our thoughts are predominantly focused on the aspects of humanity that feel less than Joyful.

By minding our minds, we move toward our center, and from a more centered vantage point we project - and thereby create gloriously. Be open to experience the Divine through the physical form, and create Heaven in the only time-space it can ever exist - Here and Now.

Transformation and Discomfort

We wear patterns of emotional dissonance like shrouds that resist the Light of our consciousness and distort our perception of reality. This emotional "baggage" becomes part of our personality, and when we release it, we give birth to a new concept of self.

There is bound to be some discomfort and sorrow with this kind of transformation, but the reward, if we persevere, is a deeper understanding of Self - which means more clarity, creativity and Joy.

Animal Consciousness Supports Human Creativity

The Earth itself and everything manifested on Earth is projecting consciousness; and consciousness is the creator of our shared reality.  Every expression of consciousness in our world has evolved and is evolving for the creation and evolution of more intelligent life.

This is because existence is the infinite expansion of consciousness, and in our world, intelligence fuels that expansion by driving the creative force toward greater leaps in creativity. Every human expression is the culmination of every thought that has come before, as the individual being has evolved over many lifetimes as many different species.

At present, humans are the only species endowed with the level of intelligence that commands the creative force with specificity.  As such, human thought is on the leading edge of creativity.

Whatever possibilities we humans create for ourselves, we are also creating for everything else. Indeed, beings currently expressing themselves as animals, trees, etc., are all evolving toward the human experience.

Animals do not perceive the world as humans do - they live more from a vibrational perspective and summon the creative force for manifestations that support life on Earth.

Unlike humans, animals express their preferences from an instinctual rather than a material perspective.

Through their thought-based projections, animals contribute greatly to the sustenance of the environment on Earth as being conducive to human life.   They do so effortlessly, simply by living in rhythm with their environment, and following the flow of life through the perception of Unconditional Love.

However, humans are the judges of the world. Thus it is we who are responsible for everything in the reality shared by every creature on Earth.

It is our thought-based projections that create the vibratory environment that everything else projects back to us.  While all other forms of consciousness are supporting our survival, humans are creating well beyond this basic instinct.

To be human is a gift that the soul has done nothing special to receive, and every Earth-bound being is on its journey to becoming human. However, humanity is not the end of our journey. Once our being is expressed through the human mind, we continue to evolve toward more conscious expression in the progression of the creative manifestation that is our world.

The more we allow consciousness to prevail in our lives, the more we come to appreciate animals and every other expression of consciousness that supports us. The more we appreciate everything in our environment, the more our world represents our perception of harmony.

Humans can learn a lot about allowing from animals, and when we develop our ability to couple allowing with creativity, our thought-energy manifests blessings for ourselves and everything else.
