Creation is not done alone. As discussed in "How we create our experiences," "How we create the reality we experience," and the "Observer observed pair and the nature of duality," we will need another or others to have the experiences we desire to have. In this regard, we need to begin to let go of the judgments, both positive and negative, we have about the person who stands in front of us giving us the experience we have. Otherwise we deny the creator/Creator and deny our own creative power.

We need to understanding we have either created, or chose to participate in, the experience we have. If we deny this fact, we become a victim in some way and rob ourselves our creative power. Our current mind may not understand how we have created the experience we have and we may not understand why we would create such an experience. Nevertheless, we need to accept that we are somehow responsible for what we experience. Within this understanding, there are several comments which can be made in attempting to create with another.

The person who stands in front of us is only there to give us the experiences we desire to have at some level of our being. It does not matter if they are our friend and/or a lover or an enemy. Without them, we could not experience what we do. Another can play a similar role but we each are unique. Their uniqueness matches exactly what we desire to experience.

To understand why this particular individual is before us, the recommendation is go to our intuitive guidance to access why that individual is in our life. We simply need to ask ourselves, "What is it that I desire to experience that this particular individual is in my life and why this particular individual as opposed to any other?" We then need to become open to what is presented to us. We need to become aware of what surfaces and any judgments or feelings we may have about what surfaces. Then, to the best of our ability, we need embrace that reason. Otherwise we are denying both the creator/Creator and our own intuitive guidance and it will be unwilling to work with us in the future.

Every creation we experience is the result of a flow of energy. Without a flow of energy there is no movement. The flow of energy is a result of the creative tension between two opposites, a masculine aspect and a feminine aspect if we wish to consider them as such. In this regard, any experience we have is the offspring of a masculine aspect and a feminine aspect.

Seen in this light, there is something within us that is seeking and thrusting out as a masculine aspect for which the person before us is providing the feminine aspect. Similarly, there is a masculine aspect within the other which is thrusting out to seek what that feminine aspect which lies within us. The result is a flow of energy which creates the experience between us.

For any person that enters our life or we desire to have in our life, we can ask ourselves and them what do we wish to create together. We can ask, "Why do they seek me as opposed to any other?" and" Why do I seek them as opposed to any other?" If we are open, we will get the answer.

We need to understand, the experience we have with anyone is only the energetic offspring of what we each desires and it is this energetic offspring that keeps individuals together or in each other’s life. So the question we need to ask is, "What do I wish to create together with this person and why?"

In this regard, until we fulfill the reason we came together and that energy is free to flow to dissipation, there will be some type and kind of uncompleted action which must be done. That is, our energy is someway bound to the other individual and it is only in releasing that bound energy that we become free of them. This, in many ways, can be seen as one of the basis which gives rise to the traditional concept of karma and that individuals reincarnate with another to finish what was begun in a previous life.

Although there is an aspect of truth to this, it is not quite this simple. The real issue is how and why did two individual agree to create a joint experience and what is the reason for the energy being bound. Sometimes the energy is bound and tied to a particular individual for that particular individual, because of the uniqueness of each, it is the only individual that can give another the particular type and kind of experience desired. However, at other times, it is not so much the uniqueness of the individuals but more a result of programming, conditioning and the like such that we believe it is the other individual that is needed when in fact, they are not. Rather, it is a belief that we hold which seems to be binding us to a particular individual.

Nevertheless, because of how strongly we hold the beliefs we have, often it is the other particular individual that we need to experience to release the belief and see that it is not them which is the cause of what we desire to experience. But we don’t know which is which, that is, is it the belief or the person, until the experience is had and the energy released. Then, of course, our ego feels like a fool if we find it was only a belief that we had. But here again, the game the ego plays in feeling like a fool. Feeling like a fool helps to sustain our attachments to the ego and sustain the illusion of Creation rather than coming to realize that we are the creator of our experiences by what we choose to think and believe.

But there is another point. Although we create our experience by what we think and believe, we cannot think that we can simply think we change what we believe and change our beliefs. Beliefs are embedded in the world we experience and interconnected with many other beliefs. The world we experience is our consciousness made manifest. To truly change what we believe something in our world will have to change. The inner is reflected in the outer. We cannot change a belief about someone or something without changing our world and/or our body and/or our way of being in the world in some way. Similarly if energy is bound in a belief, that energy must be process for the belief to be able to be released. This includes the energy bound in mental and/or body memories.

The key is that for any experience we have with another, each must want the offspring, that flow of energy giving rise to the experience, to be fully and freely expressed more than anything. This is necessary if we wish to have a "successful" relationship that does not rob us, and/or them, of our creative ability and creative power. Otherwise we will fight or struggle with each other at some level of our being in some way binding the free flow of our energy.

Yet, it is this phenomenon of binding energy between individuals which sustains Creation. We live in the illusion of Creation and the illusion of mind that we are somehow separate from the experience we have and that other who gives us that experience. Until we go within as see why that other has entered our life and surrender to the flow of energy which is giving rise to the experience, we will not be free of them whether or not they are presently in our life. We will be bound in some way and will need to release that bound energy before we can move on to create something new. Here again, is one of the basis of the proverbial wheel of Karma.

It is in understanding how our creative life energy gives rise to the creation we experience and whether or not we are free or not free to flow to fully dissipate any experience we have is were true feminine creative power lies. It is the feminine which nurtures and sustains creation and it is the free flow of our creative life energy which determines the creation we experience. In being open to feeling, learning to discern what we feel, how mind characterizes what we feel, and learning to becoming like the wind - coming with no attachments and leaving with no attachments for any experience we have, do we access feminine creative power to create whatever we desire in life.
