The statements of the conservation of energy and the conservation of energy consciousness, can be interpreted to imply there is a fixed amount of energy, consciousness and energy consciousness that does exist and can exist. This would seem to be in conflict with the concept of the ability to create something out of nothing and conflict with the concept of an infinite consciousness with an unlimited creativity if in fact energy and consciousness are one and the same. That is, if energy can neither be created or destroy it would appear the amount of energy within Creation is fixed. That in turn, would imply consciousness could not be infinite for it too would be fixed.

There are several ways to view this issue. One starts with the assumptions we make about Creation. If, in fact, energy and consciousness are one and the same and given the capacity for consciousness to create illusion, one may never be able to definitely determine if we create more energy and/or consciousness or we simply live in the illusion we do so. Similarly, given the ability of consciousness to create illusion, anything and everything, may be illusion no matter how realize we think something to be. After all, most of what exists between atoms and between the nucleus and electrons in the atoms is space.

In any case, we need to start were we are and see what we know. Energy is defined as the ability to do work (a force acting through a distance) or the capacity to produce an effect. It has been found and rather well established in Physical Creation that energy exists and can neither be created or destroyed, only transformed. The form of the energy when we start does not matter. The form of the energy when we end doesn’t matter. In the end, nothing is lost. The form of the energy is only transformed into something different. So it can be said with some confidence, within an existing Creation the energy is conserved. That is, the energy within the creation is fixed or maybe better said, all committed or accounted for as either it exists in a given form or flowing into form.

Consciousness is defined as the ability to make something happen. If one is aware and awake but cannot make something happen another will not be able to know if one is awake. Additionally, the one being aware and awake will have no ability to anything other than to observe. But, if we believe what quantum physics tells us about how our observations affect what we observe, then the very act of observing produces an affect. So, if consciousness is conscious, that is aware and awake, it has the ability or capacity to produced an effect. This, in turn, is the definition of energy and we are back to the equivalency of energy and consciousness. This then gives rise to the idea that consciousness is a flow of energy which has awaken to its own existence and in being aware of itself, consciousness has the ability to observe and direct the flow of its energy. Or, it can be said, as consciousness in becoming aware of our existence the observation of our existence causes a flow of energy to arise which give rise to the Creation we experience. These statements in turn lead to the statement, our creative life energy flows to create an experience of that on which our consciousness focuses its attention and awareness.

So, in the end, we seem to be in a convoluted loop of playing word games and what we mean by what we say in the terms we use. In any case, energy and consciousness are not normally seen as the same. The reason for this seems to be that we tend to experience consciousness as existing within our being and as something which lies within any, what we define as, living entity. We tend to see energy as residing in the inanimate aspects of Creation but animating creation for without a flow of energy there is no movement. Yet it is the energy within our being, our life energy, that allows us to be alive and gives us the ability to move within Creation. So, whatever energy is, it lies inside of us and is deeply related to us for when the energy stops flowing within our being we die. But does the energy stop flowing within our being or does our consciousness direct that flow of energy elsewhere? Here again, a matter of debated as to what we believe.

Within this understanding, we can see that as we become more aware, we increase our ability to produce greater and greater effects. In this regard, we can be seen as creating both energy and consciousness. But, are we creating more consciousness or simply awakening to what we already possess but are simply unaware. This bring us to the "Creation Story for the Creativity Perspective." That is, the awareness within Creation, that consciousness which lies within, or behind, Creation, awoke to its own existence. Not finding anyone with whom to share itself, it created the illusion of seeming fragmenting itself into an infinite number of aspects. in order to find a playmate

Out of that process came an infinite Creation. Within this understanding all of Creation is within the consciousness within, or behind, Creation. As an aspect of this consciousness, all of Creation is within us much like the whole lies in each piece of a hologram. Each of these aspects awaken to its own existence. Over time and as a result of the experiences any one aspect has, each aspect awakens and expands it awareness until it arrives back to the understanding all of Creation lies within. It begins to see and understand our inner world is reflected in the outer world giving rise to the Creation we experience and all is simply consciousness at play with itself. Within this model all that exists already exists and we are simply awakening to what exists.

Whether we take an inner journey to explore this infinite Creation or an outer journey since our inner world is reflected in the outer, there are an infinite number of experiences to be had. So, it may take some time before we can arrive at the experience which will allows us to know if we can in fact create more energy or we simply are creating another illusion like the illusion which first gave rise to Creation.

In addition to this perspective, there are another two ways to look at the statement that energy can neither be created or destroyed, only transformed. A second way is to see energy as the "stuff" or material of Creation and consciousness is the experience of energy or energy experiencing itself. In this case the energy of Creation is fixed and consciousness changes. That is, there are an infinite number of ways for consciousness to change its perspective to experience this fixed energy. Hence, there exists in essence an infinite consciousness with an infinite creativity experiencing the energy which exists and infinite number of ways. Similarly the consciousness an be seen as being fixed and we can be experience energy changing an infinite number of ways to cause the fixed consciousness to perceive differently.

A third way to look at this statement is that energy consciousness is conserved and the the amount of energy and/or consciousness that is experienced depends on the proportion of consciousness which has awakened. That is, the Creation we experience is determined by the consciousness which has awakened. Alternatively said, the amount of energy we experience will be fixed and the creation we experience will seem bounded by the consciousness which gave rise to the creation we experience. However, as the consciousness which gave rise to the creation we experience awakens, the creation itself will be seen expanding and growing. The more the consciousness awakens, the greater and more expansive the Creation experiences. This means as consciousness awaken it awakens to a new more expanded level creating or allowing for more "ability to make something happen" to come into existence. As we awaken we appear to access more energy in the form a grater creative power. The more the consciousness goes to sleep the smaller less expansive the Creation. However, the consciousness experiencing the creation will never know that it is causing the Creation to grow and expand or shrink and collapse for it will have no reference for comparison for it is both the cause the effect of what is experienced.

Based on the exploration into our inherent creativity, the recommendation which is made is to accept the fact that we are in a shared creation and within a Creation the concept of the conservation of energy consciousness is valid. That is both energy and consciousness can neither be created or destroyed only transformed within an existing creation. Such a concept does tie together much of what lies in the spiritual, esoteric, mystical, metaphysical and physical sciences understanding of humanity and, independent of this fact, such a belief provides great insight into our inherent creativity and our ability to create what we desire.

As a human being in Physical Creation we are currently experiencing a shared creation. So, relative to the energy and consciousness that can be accessed in Physical Creation, we can expect it to be fixed. When we leave Physical Creation as we know it and understand it, in what every one can figure out how to leave it, then we can look to see if in fact we can create more energy. As for what happens outside a shared creation such as Physical Creation is something for which you will need to do your own experiments and explore on your own and see what is true. No one can do it for you. You cannot assume what is ultimate true for you is true for any other. Based on the exploration of our inherent creativity, the author believes the ultimate truth is the same for each of us, but that is his experience. Yours may be different.

In any case, within the belief of the conservation of energy and consciousness within an existing creation, the statement of the principle would be: "All the energy of an existing creation/Creation is either in an existing form or flowing into form. All the consciousness within an existing creation is focused by how and what it thinks and believe to give rise to that existing from and/or flow energy. To create something new, some existing form or flow will need to be given up to manifest the new creation. This requires a shift in consciousness and a shift in the focus of attention and awareness. To do this a sacrifice of some type will need to occur both within and without."

What needs to be remembered is from an energy consciousness perspective, energy manifests only in proportion to the awareness of the consciousness to create thought its observation. The observation is determined by the perspective it holds which, in turn, is determined by what it thinks and believe. Energy consciousness is what is infinite as energy consciousness, But it will not be seen as infinite by the consciousness or energy manifested by that consciousness. There is a dance here. To create more energy there need to be a transformation of consciousness. To transform consciousness we need to a change in the flow of energy. It sounds like the proverbial Catch 22 or a "do" loop where a computer continual repeats the same calculation never moving past it because of a programming error. The answer is to learn the two views of creation and learn to dance between the two views. Then in that dance one will come to see how to escape the Catch 22.
