One of the most important items
that was found in exploring the creative spirit is that this
creative spirit offers each individual a unique and special path in
life. This path will encompasses a set of experiences that will
cause an understanding and awareness to arise within oneself. This
understanding and awareness leads to a calmness within their being
and an inner satisfaction which can be characterized as bliss or
joy, that never runs dry no matter what is happen in the external
world. It can provide this internal satisfaction, a bliss or joy,
faster than mind could ever conceive. It provides a peace, calmness
and clarity within one’s being as it unfolds.
Some experience this state as: a fullness of being; an expansion of
one’s being; an inner freedom; being full of life; a desire to
engage life; a passion for life; being in “the flow;” or simply in a
state of wonderment and “ah.” Wonderment at how and what Creation
really is and how it works such that one is in “ah.” That is, all
one can utter is “ah” at what they perceive.
I, myself, have been there and experienced this state. I seemed to
have stumbled into it as a result of the intention to study and
explore creativity. A result of what I was to discover and explored
in this state profoundly changed my life and how I perceived
Creation. It was not a religious or spiritual experience. It was a
creative experience and an experience of the source of our creative
power. All one can do having experienced this state is to find a way
to share with another what one has found and/or create the space for
another to experience it for you never want to leave it. To some it
is have. To others it is Nirvana. Whatever it is, you can experience
it here and now. It is the source of our creative power and always
with you. Exactly what you experience and how you will experience it
when you align with this spirit will be unique to you for you are a
unique entity. As discussed under the topic “The
Problem of Mind and the Experience of the Source of Creation - the
Trap of Mind,” what you remember from it will depend on the
experiences you have had.
The more you can surrender and align with it, the deeper you
experience what it has to offer. Paradoxically, the more passionate
you become because of being enthused by this energy, you
simultaneously move into a deeper and deeper calmness within your
being as a result of this passion. Some individuals spend years
meditating to obtain an internal calmness and clarity similar to
what is inherent within the unfolding of this creative spirit.
On the points of calmness and inner bliss and joy, most of us have
some idea of what a calmness within our being feels like. Most of us
have been agitated and know what it feels like to be in an inner
piece relative to our agitation. We all have probably observed an
agitated pool of water with ripples and a calm pool of water with no
ripples. Most of us have probably experienced the equivalent of
these two states within our being.
However, this inner satisfaction and bliss is something different.
It is not joy or pleasure as mind understands it. It is not joy,
pleasure or happiness in contrast to pain. One can be in a deep
inner bliss and inner satisfaction even when in pain. It is an
awareness that gives rise to an inner satisfaction and bliss because
it knows everything is fine the way it is, as it is. Yet in the
awareness that everything is okay, this creative spirit knows it has
the power to create something different and that better serves and
expresses what one has come to believe about themselves. As such,
one can continually recreate themselves and their world with a deep
inner satisfaction and calmness such that one never has to leave the
world or separate from it. This in turn, creates the possibility of,
and, is the heaven on earth that many of the mystics and mystical
literature talks about. One does not have to spend years meditating
to get there. They simply need to allow the creative spirit within
their being to freely unfold and in doing so, will almost
instantaneously be able to achieve such a state of being. It is
simply about freely and innocently surrendering to the flow of
energy within our own being that gives one the fullness of being and
gives us a passion for life and for living.
