The primary issue - a doubly locked cage of one’s own making

One key - the flow of our creative energy - the creative spirit

The second key - the creativity perspective

The fundamental understanding of the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity material is that we are creative beings and we will always create.  We cannot not create. The life we live is a creation. It is something original and not seen or previously experienced by anyone before us, or anyone who comes after us.

 

The problem we face in creativity is quite simple. The mind which created the problem mind wishes to solve is not the mind that will solve the problem. Yet the creativity that mind seeks,  which will provide the desire solution for whatever we wish to create, is held captive in a cage created by mind. In fact it is in a doubly locked cage.

 

To access the true depth and breadth of our creative power and ability, we will need two separate keys. Both keys are ultimately controlled by our mind and our belief structure and the resulting perspective we hold.  That is, the keys are controlled by how and what we think and believe and why we think and believe the way we do.  Hence a significant portion of the journey to release our unlimited creativity is about learning to unlock the cage which mind itself has created. To access these keys, we begin by having to change our perspective. (More on .... the primary issue.)

In addition to understanding that we are creative beings and we will always create, it is also understood that each we have been created with certain inalienable rights. With no intention of pushing a particular political view or a particular form of government in making following statement, some of these right have been enumerated by Thomas Jefferson in the US Declaration of Independence.  The are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, as many history scolars know, a revolution was started to force a government to honor and give these rights to all its citizens. Well, not quite all at the time, and the struggle to give them to all still continues.

What needs to be understood in refering to these inalienable rights is that no one, other than our self, knows what we need that will give us a life worth living. No one, other than our self, knows what truly gives us freedom and what freedom feels like. And, no one, other than our self, knows what makes us happy. No one can give us these things for no one knows what to give us other than our self. All another can do is give you the space to experience what you create.

We must create these experiences our self, whether in work or play. However we must create them with, and through, others for creation is not done alone. The one problem many of us will face is that we really don’t know what a is a life worth living, what freedom really feels like and what truly makes us happy. We think we do but, in time, we find we are not satisfied.

The key to both finding what is needed to create a life worth living, freedom and happiness is unique to ourselves. To create such things and to address our uniqueness, we need to develop and intimate relationship what is best described as our creative spirit. Our creative spirit must be free to do what it needs to do. We can always access some portion of our creative ability and power to create these things to some degree. However, the depth and breadth of our creative ability and power is doubly locked and we have not been taught how to open the lock.

Repeating what was stated above, to access the true depth and breadth of our creative power and ability, we will need two separate keys. Both keys are ultimately controlled by our mind and our belief structure and the resulting perspective we hold. That is, the keys are controlled by how and what we think and believe and why we think and believe the way we do. To access these keys, we have to change our perspective.

One key - the flow of our creative energy - the creative spirit (Top)

One key is what is best described as our creative spirit. There is a flow of creative life giving energy within our being. A creative spirit if you wish. It fuels our creative ability and power. It animates not only our life but the experiences we have. It is under our control - either conscious control and/or subconscious control. However, without a conscious intimate relationship with our creative spirit, we will never access the full depth and breadth of our creative ability and power. Without this intimate relationship, we are unable to find a faster, easier and gentler way - an alternative way - to create what we desire. In fact, without this conscious relationship, we may be even unable to create what we desire and/or a lasting inner satisfaction with life will be illusive.

To develop an intimate relationship with our creative spirit, it is about opening oneself to feeling and what they feel. It is about using our internal compass and intuitive guidance in our creative efforts. Both of these require an awareness of what we sense and feel. An awareness of what we feel will require us to explore what has kept us from feeling and using both the internal compass and our intuitive guidance all our life. Additionally, the creativity perspective and holding one’s creativity sacred are essential for creating the space to become intimate with our creative spirit and providing it the same to unfold true to its nature.

The guided path will help you get started in developing and intimate relationship with your creative spirit. However, you will have to choose to act to hold your creativity sacred and following the lead of your intuitive guidance.

The second key - the creativity perspective (Top)  

The second key is a creativity perspective. A creativity perspective is a perspective that: (1) enables us to access and fully employ the depth and breadth of our creativity; and (2) to enables us to hold our creativity sacred. It enables us to become creatively self-empowered.

The creativity perspective is a way of viewing yourself and Creation such that: (1) you hold your creativity and your creative spirit sacred; and (2) it is a perspective that allows you to grow and expand your creative powers and ability. Part of your creative power and ability is awareness. Unless you are aware of something existing, you cannot consciously change or influence it. The more awareness you have, the greater you power and ability to make or influence whatever it is that you are aware. Probably the first indications that your creative power and ability are growing is an increased awareness. You will simply see more and know more about that on which you focus.

The information provided on this and related websites will give you concepts and information that will allow you to develop a creativity perspective. A creativity perspective is not something you adopt. Rather is something you develop that comes from within the synthesis of your understanding. This material will increase your awareness of creativity and how you create the reality you experience and the experiences in that reality. This information is not the creativity perspective. But the information provided will broaden your perspective and create the fertile space which will allow your perspective to evolve into a creativity perspective. Following the guided path will help you to develop a creativity perspective. However, if you wish to focus on the perspective more than your creative spirit, then just explore this and related websites as you feel lead. I’m sure there is something you will find that is of interest to you.
