Summary
thoughts
In the discussion, “Love
and the Creativity Perspective,” it is stated: In discussing
love, the first question which arises is, “What exactly do you mean
by love?” for there are as many definitions and interpretations of
love as there are people. In the
creativity perspective,
love is to give unconditionally a sufficiently large, safe and
secure space and the nourishment a creation needs to freely grow and
unfold true to its nature without outside interference in any way.
What this means is quite profound and actually almost next to
impossible to consciously do no matter what we think otherwise. Yet,
in striving to give this kind of love to ourselves and another, we
can get very, very close to what it means. How this concept of love
compares to other definitions and interpretations of love is found
in the discussion “What do we mean by love?” This topic
addresses some of those other definitions and interpretations of
love.
Exploring the concept of
love (Top)
Relative to our
creative power and creative
ability, we must love what we have to bring forth in the world
and live with a
passion and
enthusiasm to manifest that creation. We need the passion
similar to that
as a drowning person has for air. Here are talking about that
all-consuming love and passion for what we desire to create such
that it becomes a
single point focus for our life. In a creative endeavor, love,
passion and enthusiasm are closely related in the way the emotional
energy of our psyche is directed into the creative activities. Our
emotional energy is the energy behind manifesting and brings our
ideas into form. However, modern English does not quite do justice
to the concepts we wish to express in the terms love, passion and
enthusiasm. Passion and enthusiasm are discussed in the topic “The
Importance of Enthusiasm and Its Relation to Passion.”
The love to which we refer is an unconditional loved described as “to
give unconditionally a sufficiently large,
safe and secure space and the nourishment a creation needs to
freely grow and unfold true to its nature without outside
interference in any way.” But the concept of love stated here
suffers greatly in the modern world for the concept of live here
covers aspect of love not currently associated with love.
Love as defined in its current usage is used in several ways as
follows. It is seen as a deep devotion or affection for another
person or persons or it is to feel affection for another or
something. One use of the world is that love runs the spectrum of
sexuality. At one extreme it is seen as a strong sexual
passion for another person or as seen sexual passion in general,
or the gratification of our sexuality. At the other extreme is to
simply show affection in a form that may be characterized by less
than a small kiss or embrace. Another use of the world love is that
it is used as a term of endearment and/or a very great interest in,
or enjoyment of, something and/or to take pleasure or delight in
something or someone. In this regard, one’s love is the things so
enjoyed and/or the
beloved. Some uses of the concept of love have a spiritual
aspects and is seen as the benevolence and mercifulness of God
toward mankind and as the adoration or devout affection of man
towards God. Love is seen as the kindness and charitableness man
should, or is expected to show towards others.
If we compare the
creativity perspective
use and the common use of the word love they seem quite different.
That is until you look at the all the common uses of the word love
dance around seeing what we love as the experience and manifestation
of an intention we hold. The issue we face with the concept of love
is that we only have one world for the enormous depth and breadth of
what the concept of love can address.
English, having only one word for love, causes love to cover the
extremes of everything. It covers the extreme from the most virtuous
feelings conceivable and to the giving of one’s life to, or for
another, to superficial sentimentality. It cover the extreme of
addressing our basest physical carnal needs to the highest levels of
spirituality obtainable through sexuality. It is an extremely broad
spectrum by anyone’s standards.
To say “I wish to create a community of love” the question we will
face in our own
mind, let alone the mind of others is, “and what type of love
are we referring?” In this regard, if we think about our life and
the lives of those who we hold in deep affection, we will see we, as
they, have all probably suffered much from the confusion that has
been caused by this variety of uses of the word love in English.
We probably all have had a relationship or two that have been very
confused as a result of one of the individuals using the word in one
sense and having it understood in completely another sense by the
other. At times we probably find ourselves hard pressed to say
something to someone because the word we want to use is love, but we
know there is so much enculturated baggage with the word that we are
afraid it would convey the wrong meaning, so we say nothing. The
question is, “What is it that we are really trying to express when
we speak of love?” The question relative to the
creativity perspective
is, “What is it we want to express here when we speak of a love for
our creation and
passion and
enthusiasm of love of life, love of the our heart’s desire
and self love to live that life that we were meant to live?”
Many authors when attempting to talk about love turn to other
languages because often other languages have different words for the
different aspects of love. This of course raises the question as to
where the lack of words to described the different aspects of love
says something about our society and the maturity that we have in
the area of what love is all about. Maybe we need to refine
ourselves and how we love such that we demand more precise words for
what we wish to express.
In any forum, be it religious, medical, artistic, scientific, we
find that people start to develop a jargon particular to that
discipline to distinguish the fine points of what is trying to be
expressed. It is understanding the fine points, concepts and unique
terminology of a discipline and the skill in their application that
defines one of the aspects of the professional in that discipline.
Similarly, society also develop precise language for what is
important.
Interestingly, the English language seems to have gone in completely
the opposite direction relative to love. It seems to have
intentionally confused the issue of love and what we are trying to
express when we use the term. Give the peculiar trait human have for
creating jargon it is almost as if there has been a conscious
attempt to keep the understanding of love away from the “experts”
let alone the masses.
The lack of refinement in the availability of having words to
describe the different aspects of love might be a result of a lack
of exposure to them. With lack of exposure, there is no need for
fine discernment between different aspects. In all the literature
and traditions that have been explored, there seems to be an absence
of information on love. There is such a lack that it is doubtful
many traditions try and really distinguish and understand the
different aspects of love. Or, at least, if they do, they do not
readily weave and talk about it in their texts and teach it to their
followers such that it becomes a part of our every day language.
This is a surprising phenomenon since so many spiritual and
religious talk about how the Creator loves Its Creation and/or
created out of love. You would think they at least would have
refinement in the terms of love. Additionally, when you apply the or
adage, “You shall know a tree by its fruits” there seems to be even
fewer traditions trying to practice love as a discipline and a
profession. Donating money, especially when publicized or deducted
off of taxes is not love. It is an advertisement or a tax deduction
respectively. It would seem that if a group of individuals were
trying to live and express love as a discipline, spiritual or
otherwise, one of the fruits of this way of life is that there would
be a vocabulary that would go along with it. The question that needs
to be asked is, “Where is the vocabulary of love that is reflective
of the understanding of the finer aspects of love? One may argue
there are a variety of words like sentiment, affection, devotion,
passion, sex, animal passion, and the like that can be used to
distinguish aspects of love. But if we look carefully there really
is no vocabulary for love.
The question that can be asked is, “Why is the lack of word
available to describe the various aspects of love so important here?
“ The answer is, that when creating the space for a creation to be
free to unfold true to itself, giving what is needed to the creation
in the way the creation needs to be nurtured causes us to stretch
the concepts embedded with the current use of the world love to
their limit. The limit is pushed in that what is meant by love and
unconditional love take on meaning and actions one could never
imaging within their dictionary and colloquial usage.
Love relative to creativity
(Top)
Relative to creativity, love is
seen as” give unconditionally a sufficiently large, safe and
secure space and the nourishment a creation needs to freely grow and
unfold true to its nature without outside interference in any way.”
It has been found exactly what these words mean will actually take
on a slightly different meaning for each and every creative endeavor
for each creation is different. The following provides some aspects
of love that have been encountered in exploring creativity. Where
available, refinement on the different aspects of love are provided.
Relative to the definition of love within the
creativity perspective,
there are several aspects to the definition that are worth exploring
a little deeper.
Give unconditionally
(Top):
to give unconditionally has several aspects. One is that what is
given is given with nothing in return and no expectations of a
return. There may be some hope that something will transpire in the
way we wish but there can be no expectation as such. Also,
unconditional means to give in the way the nourishment and needs are
met. It is not to give in the way we want to give. In essence we
become a
shape shifter and shift our shape to meet the needs of the
creation. If we do not give in the way the creation needs to be
nourished, we will stunt the creation’s growth and unfoldment.
Sufficiently large, safe and secure space
(Top):
A sufficient large,
safe and secure space is a space large enough for the creation
to freely grow and unfold true to its nature without outside
interference. How big a space that is needed depends totally on the
creation. An Oak tree will need much more space than a tomato plant.
However, in any creative endeavor, we many not know how much space
is needed. We may find we are continually increase the space we give
as the creation unfold. If at any time, the creation does not have
sufficient space it growth and unfoldment will be thwarted in some
way.
The nourishment a
creation needs (Top):
To give the nourishment a creation needs to freely grow and unfold
true to its nature without outside interference in any way is often
more difficult that we suspect. Most do not what to give what needs
to be given. Rather, we wish to give what we want to give. We seek
to avoid those situations where we must give what we don’t want to
give. We seek those situations where we give what we want the way we
want. Any creative endeavor will require
a sacrifice of some existing form to be transformed into the new
creation. A part of us will need to change to nurture any creation.
If we are unwilling to undergo the necessary change on our part we
cannot nurture the creation as needed. It needs to be remembered,
the
environment and the unfoldment of any creation are integrally linked.
In creating the space, we are part of the environment of the
creation which unfolds and we will have to change as the creation
grows.
Freely grow and unfold
(Top):
The best way to understand what it means to freely grow and unfold
is to look at two trees planted too close together or a tree in a
space not given enough room compared to a tree that has all the
space it needs. The issue of space is true for any creation within
each aspect of that creation. Human are seen as having a spiritual,
mental, emotional and physical part. Each of these four aspects must
be given sufficient space to be explored and for the individual to
freely grown and unfold in each of those areas. To creatively love
someone is to give them a sufficient large, safe and secure space
which allows them to
creatively play and explore each of those areas.
True to its nature
(Top):
One of the biggest issues is we have our expectations, our desire
and what we want. To nurture a creation we must allow it to be true
to itself. For a human it is for them to explore their
enculturated mind
and programming and their inner truth to know what is really true
for them. It is to learn to respond to live true to what they know
and feel and not what they think they have to do to satisfy someone
or something externally. Each needs a sufficient space to
creatively play, explore and experiment with what they know to
separate their enculturation from their own truth.
Without outside
interference (Top):
This is much harder to do that we realize. The
environment and the unfoldment of any creation are integrally linked.
The
safe and secure space I provide for someone will be different
than another provides. Although we may do the exact same thing, my
energy is different than another and at some level that energy
difference is sensed and does make a difference. We will never be
able to remove that energy influence, but we can become aware of it.
We can set and hold the intention to create the space for the
individual to be free to unfold true to themselves. We are
infinitely creative beings and we are capable of creating
anything on which we focus our attention and awareness. Setting such
an intention will help to shift our energy in favor of what the
individual needs and become a presence that minimizes if not removes
that outside interference. This is part of what it means to be a
shape shifter. We shift who we are to meet the need of the
creation. This is what it means to love our creation.
A refinement of
additional aspects of love (Top)
In creative endeavors, especially
helping another to unfold true themselves, there will be things we
are ask to do that may be very different than what we have been
taught or have experienced in our lives that fall within the
creativity perspective
of love and providing what the individual needs to be properly
nurtured. The concepts provided here are not so much to introduce
these concepts to create a new, more discriminating vocabulary,
although it is needed. Rather they are provided here to give a
perspective of what may be required and we will be asked to give or
they may somehow arise.
Nurturing
feminine creative energy (Top):
The
nurturing feminine creative energy is discussed in the topic of
the same name. It is to
step out of our mind and truly become what the creation needs.
All creations need a feminine creative energy much the mother feeds
the embryo. However the nurturing feminine creative energy is about
providing a
shape shifting energy for each and every level of the creation.
A warm fuzzy space
(Top):
Our
creative spirit is extremely
vulnerable and childlike in how it approaches creation. Often it
becomes wounded when its creative endeavors are thwarted or there is
pain of the past which needs to be processed to free the necessary
creative energy bound in past memories. A
warm fuzzy space is the type and kind of space a loving mother
provides for their wounded and hurt child. She holds them close much
the way a mother breast feeds her new born infant. In this space the
individual feels and deep nurturing and supportive love.
Biological love
(Top):
Biological love is about having sex for the purpose of creating
offspring. It may be a conscious act as in an arranged marriage or
unconscious in the biological urge to mate and propagate the species
Erotic love
(Top):
Erotic love is about sexual love and arousing sexual desire. It is
about having sex for its pleasure. The erotic is seen as something
designed to arouse sexual desire and is strongly moved by sexual
desire and is amorous. It lies on a spectrum. At the more base is
end is sex for pleasure one gets from sex with no regard for their
partner. It is had to purely satisfy the ego. At the other extreme
is the Eros. Erotic love does not survive without sex in some way.
Eros (Top):
Eros is one of four concepts about love which come the Greek
language which provide for refinement and distinguishing the
concepts of loves: the four are eros the erotic, agape
the higher “conscious” love, storge referring to family
feelings, and philia the love in friendship. Eros can be seen
as an erotic love. It has strong sexual overtone, but it is a love
that exists between two people where the emphasis is on the spirit
that unites the two people, not their sexuality. That is, the love
is of the spirit and the spirit of life within the individuals as
opposed to their sexuality although sexuality may be a big part of
it and greatly enjoyed by both. Often in Eros the sexuality and the
love of the individual’s spirit is lost in each other. This is a
very profound and creative love. It is to meet an individual at each
and every level of their being. Eros can and will survive without
sex. But Eros is culminates in sexuality.
Words cannot do justice to describing this type and kind of love. It
is something that needs to be experienced to understand its full
impact. It is a transformational experience. If it is experienced,
our whole life is changed. Eros is what lies at the foundation of
the Tantric practice to use sexuality to obtain spiritual awareness
and/or enlightenment. It is what drives the search for the
beloved/Beloved within spiritual traditions. The English usage
does not have an equivalent word . It has degenerated the concept of
eros to the word erotic and to only mean that which is of, or
pertaining to, or concerned with sensual love and amatory. Yet, it
is a profound, powerful creative force because of what can cause to
arise within the individual. It lies at the heart of the concept of
the muse.
Most individuals seem to associate eros with erotic and that is a
rather sad development for there is a love of the spirit of another
that transcends sexuality and is as powerful, if not more powerful,
than anything sexuality could give. Although sexual feelings will
most probably be contained in the
passion and be a very noticeable aspect of the passion, the
passion does not originate in or from the sexuality. Unfortunately,
until we
give ourselves permission and allow ourselves to love another
person’s spirit, we will not understand this concept and will see
Eros as erotic.
Eros is an very real and extremely powerful feeling. If it were
understood on a more general basis there would be a completely
different understanding of sexuality and it relationship to
creativity. It is this aspect the website “Creative
Sexuality” attempts to address. It is that coming together in
spirit and at the unseen levels of being to which Eros refers. One
of the few who talk about what happens in Eros and its results is
the Persian poet Rumi in a few line in the poem "Sexual
Urgency, What a Woman's Laughter Can Do, And the Nature of True
Virility" That is, such a relationship will produce a child
whether or not a physical child can be conceived. There will be a
spiritual child for which care will need to be provided. It is one
reason why it is said above, our life will change if we experience
Eros.
What needs to be understood and cannot be under emphasized is that
eros produces spiritual children. Most individuals have either not
gone past sexuality or have numbed themselves so much that they
never feel past the sexuality to experience Eros. What needs to be
emphasized is that Eros is not necessarily a sexual love. It is an
intense
passion and love of another
creative spirit that produces spiritual offspring. As the energy
of this passion enthuses the totality of our being, the sexuality is
simply a byproduct of the deeper flow of energy that is creating
life within our being.
But what needs to be emphasized here is that energetically, there is
always a child produced in sexuality. Physically, the function and
purpose of sexuality is to create offspring. However, because
sexuality takes us to the source of life and the Source of Creation,
an offspring will be created at some level of our being and in our
life. We need to being to see the metaphoric nature of what happens
physically to understand what is happening energetically. Physical
sex is about creating children. Energetically, what gives rise to
the physical experience is always about creative a new life at some
level of our being. .
The experience of Eros will never be the same for any two people
since each time you feel Eros you will be feeling as different
individualized consciousness and a unique
creative spirit. In addition to the uniqueness of the
individual, any combination of two people will be unique, such that
it will look different, feel different and be different, and in some
cases have strong sexual overtones or expression. Hence there is
some difficulty in communicating exactly what it is like.
Although it is not obvious at first glance, there are actually four
spectra of options when faced with eros - physical, emotional,
mental and spiritual. Each of the spectrum being a range of options
between the extremes of polarity. For example the physical spectrum
would move between the extremes of no physical sexual attraction to
almost an exclusively physical attraction. Whether the pair of
people is a homosexual pair or heterosexual pair, the feelings
between any two individuals can run from the extremes along any of
these four spectra and in any combination of the four spectra. A
particular pair of people could be weakly attracted to each other
spiritually and physically, but have extremely strong emotional and
mental connections. Similarly they could have strong emotional and
physical connections with little or no mental or spiritual
connections. Obviously, the most powerful experience is when there
is s strong feeling at each every level of being
Since humans are
multidimensional creatures, this facet of being in relationship
at all of these four levels of being simultaneously at different
levels of intensity is probably the aspect that makes relationships
between any couple of any sexual combination so difficult to
understand where the real or strongest connections lies. In addition
to these natural four spectra there may also be societal or tribal
spectra that are imposed or assumed by the pair. Marriage, business
partnerships, blood relations, and any of the other type of pairings
combinations are also possible influences on eros and gives rise to
the other concepts of agape the higher “conscious” love,
storge referring to family feelings, and philia the love
in friendship. On this note, the more aspects of one’s being that
provides the attraction, the greater the potential creative powers.
The bottom line with Eros is that there is nothing to stand in the
way of having a deep and profound experience of Eros with any person
and their
creative spirit on the face of the earth. All that stand in our
way is our own
mind. Because Eros originates in the joining of one’s spirit
with another, no one can escape Eros. Everyone needs it in some
form. The question is to what degree do we allow ourselves to
experience it. It is unique to each individual and only the
individual can determine and know if it is being met an dhow it
needs to be met..
In any relationship between two people, each may or may not feel
they are expressing all that Eros (the love that unites one with
another) can give. If each is capable of freely and fully expressing
themselves, at all levels, they will inevitably feel they are
building something together. With or without problems, they will
find the relationship satisfying and probably be exquisitely happy.
However, if one has the feeling that they are not free to express
all the love that one has for others, male or female, or that they
then need to give up another love - as in a career, life style, mode
of expression, or to another person, they will feel robbed of a
means of expressing the love in their heart. Then, rather than
feeling they are creating something together, they will feel stifled
and the negative side of Eros will begin to show itself, bringing
out the hatred and destruction in the person. The hatred and
destruction can be projected inward or outward.
It should be noted that the spiritual attribute is listed as
contributing to the flame of Eros. Many would disagree because they
don't see spirituality necessarily fueling the kinds of feelings
that a physical or emotional attraction cause. The reason is that
most people have not truly experienced strong spirituality and the
strong spiritual attribute of a relationship with another. Although
many experience an emotional connection few touch that spiritual
connection. If they did their approach to sexuality and life itself
would be entirely different. Rather, spiritual
passion is seen as something in a passionate evangelist. Most
don’t see the spiritual passion in a passionate love of life and to
create life at every level of being.
What has been observed is that if there is a strong spiritual
connection between two people, the other components, mental,
emotional and physical, are also pulled along to the extent that the
spirituality actually dominates the other three, and as the
spiritual intensity increases, the other three also increase in
intensity. This is a natural by product of the fact that what we
call spiritual is actually the unseen and
non-localized
flow of energy move to
localize in the physical to create the physical experience we
desire. The energy for creation is drawn down from non localized
energy which many call the spiritual level where the energy is
localized into the physical. However, to think there are individual
spirits and entities is to work with unseen localized energy and is
not the non localized energy discussed here. The actual form this
manifesting energy takes, depends entirely upon the situation and
the focus of the attention and awareness of the individuals
involved.
Storge (Top):
If understood correctly, storge referred to those feelings that
would be characterized as the love one has for their family and
family lineage. It is not family loyalty and is often confused with
loyalty. Loyalty is more about giving out of obligation. Storge is
about the affection and care one has for their root and origin. It
is about a love that arises from an appreciation of the family of
one’s origin and what that family has to offer.
Philos (Top):
Philos is love expressed in the form of a friendship. It has evolved
into English as a prefix as a combining form meaning love of, or
fond of. It is more typical of the love in the work people do
together. Similar to eros, philos will have the four spectra of
options- physical, emotional, mental and spiritual, but philos will
most probably have a lower intensity in both physical, emotions and
spiritual attraction. That is why it is said the when the flames of
eros stop burning (strong physical, emotional and spiritual
attraction), philos keeps the relationship between couples and
people together. The only reason why the feelings of eros ever stops
burning is because of how the
mind judges and is choosing to think and believe or they become
comfortable with another and begin to take them for granted and stop
experiencing the other with a
beginner’s mind.
People tend to seek eros, that aspect which is more associated with
a
passion. However, when eros wants to turn itself into philos, as
many relationships do over a natural course, people think love is
worthless and not there, but it remains as philos. Philos can be
just as rich as eros, but only different for it is a different form
and expression of love. But it cannot be under emphasized, it is
only one’s thinking that changes eros into philos or philos into
eros.
Agape and its lesser
forms (Top):
Agape is that intense love that consumes the one who loves. The
concept of agape has not survived in any way in common English usage
other than to refer to the social meal or love feast of the
primitive Christians that usually accompanied the Eucharist. If what
is understood about agape is true, agape is seen as total love that
few have rarely seen and even less have experienced. It can best be
described as that form of love that a human consciously holds and
experiences that melds them with the Divine while the in Human form.
Words cannot begin to do it justice for it is seen as something
beyond the physical experience.
It is what is sought when one seeks the
Beloved. If you wish, Eros is seen as what one seeks in the
beloved. Agape is seen as what one seeks in the Beloved. It
would be Eros and then some. Agape is Eros for all of Creation and
each and everyone in Creation. Where as eros is focused towards and
individual spirit, agape is focused towards all. On this point, to
judge Eros and its sexuality as unacceptable in some way means the
individual will not be able to comprehend agape for agape
encompasses Eros. It consumes the person who experiences it in love
for whatever that love needs to be effectively expressed.
Where Eros is transforming, agape is shattering. One who knows and
experiences agape learns that nothing else in the world is important
- just unconditional love. The love of agape is so great it can only
shatter the
mind and transform the person who holds it. If a person is not
transformed at all levels of their being, they have not experienced
agape. Agape is the feeling that remains after one touches the
Source in the
Ultimate Accident.
It is what lies behind being in a state of wonderment and “Ah” at
Creation. It is what provide for the
inner satisfaction that never runs dry no matter what is
happening in the world.
Agape is what catapults and make the saints, holy men and women. But
all saints, hold men and holy women do not reached it unless they
love sufficiently to become their
creative
passion and meeting the
intention for their life. To be in agape we have Eros for the
spirit within ourselves and have the
passion to manifest that spirit. There is no denial of oneself,
what lies within oneself and/or the physical in any way. Agape makes
everything else lose its importance. Individuals who experience
agape live just to be consumed by their passion. It is to be noted
that this love is all consuming across the whole person's being. It
is that living in oneness with the Divine. To deny a part of our
being is to live in separation. Agape an only be experienced.
The experience of agape is best ascribed to the
mystic and the mystical way of living. Yet most mystics don’t
live it for it is powerfully creative and pulls one to create. It is
the source of life and the Source of Creation. To live agape is to
live in full alignment with our
creative
passion in full flow with our
creative life energy and the desires of Creation. There is no
separation between the two. To live this life is to become what is
best called the creative
mystic.
Given that definition of agape provided here, we can see there is a
spectrum to agape experience. If agape is that all-consuming top
most point where what can be called the creative
mystic resides, there are lesser forms of this all consuming
love in two ways. One is an all consuming love across a person’s
being, entering each and every facet of their life, but the person
is not of the realm of the creative mystic. The other ways is a
similar form in that there may be an all consuming love in one area
but not necessarily all consuming across all realms of the person’s
being. But in that one area or aspect of their being, that person
could be of the level of a mystic.
Probably the best description of an individual who is
mystical in only a portion of their life is that artist or
musician. They seem to be in communion with the Divine in their
“work” but the remainder of their life does not possess that same
mystical balance that a
mystic would experience. It is these "lower" forms of agape that
are best addressed by the concepts of
enthusiasm and/or
passion for a subject. We can be enthusiastic about life and
living. We can have an all-consuming passion for being in physical
form or one can be enthusiastic about a subject, topic, object or
person. There are a variety of all-consuming ways to focus our
attention and awareness. We only need to assure, however we choose
to live, that we
learn to creatively walk going into and out of balance as
appropriate to our creative endeavor
To move to live our
creative
passion we will move toward the realm of the creative
mystic. The creative passion as discussed in this Releasing Your
Unlimited Creativity material is not meant to create mystics, but
living it will
call our
creative spirit forth into it and the experiences we have can be
very similar. Similarly, one’s creative passion may encourage a few
potential mystics to undergo their journey further into their own
heart and become who they were meant to be - a creative mystic, a
co-creator of Creation with unlimited creativity. In any case, the
goal here, is to create balance in our live and the lives of others
to be fully in tune with, and living, our creative passion and
create the space for the free unfoldment of our
creative spirit and that of another.
Summary thoughts (Top)
What needs to be understood from
this discussion is that to nurture a creation in the way it needs to
be nurtured will probably pull us into experiences of love that we
never thought possible. We may be asked to become a creative
mystic to nurture the needs of another or be pulled into one or
more of these other forms and expression of love. To truly nurture
the needs of a creation we need to be willing to become a
shape shifter and shift our shape to meet it needs.
We do this by the intention we hold. Not just our mental intention
but at each and every level of our being. All creations
start from the unseen and
non-localized
energy of Creation. By adjusting our intention and aligning our
Conscious, subconscious and unconscious intentions, we can
create an energy field that is appropriate to the energy that is
manifesting as a creation. We may appear no different to the outside
world but the energy we project is vastly different and that is
where the really effects of nurture a creation take root. It all
starts with the intention we hold at the deepest level of our being.
