Traditionally, individuals have
used a “Tradition,” whether spiritual or secular, to focus their
attention and awareness to access their creative potential. Whether
the individual sees how the given tradition is accessing their
creative potential is another question. However, each tradition has
it own belief structure and imposed limits to manifest a particular
type and kind of creation.
The
figure to the left diagrams what different traditions would look
like of you compared their conscious and subconscious understanding
of creativity. That is, how readily the beliefs that the tradition
holds allows its members to become conscious creators or how much of
their creative effort is done in unawareness of exactly how and what
they are creating.
A tradition, whether it be a spiritual tradition or an engineering
tradition, tends to come into existence in response to a question or
set of issues that someone attempts to solve or address and that
understanding can be used to create. Hence there is an understanding
about the given topic the tradition was created to address.
How one is able to use a given tradition to create or develop their
creativity will vary from tradition to tradition since all tradition
do not necessary encourage creativity and some have more awareness
of one’s individual creative abilities than others. Also, many
traditions were not designed around accessing one’s creativity but
rather the focus was to address the issue or question that the
creators of that traditions felt as needing to be addressed. Some
traditions, such a Tradition A in the figure, may give great
awareness but little conscious understanding of creativity or how
one creates their experiences like transcending pain or the human
condition. Others, such as B, may give the same conscious
understanding of creativity as A but with less awareness. That is,
individuals are able to create what they desire but they don’t
really know how they do it for the tradition often only gives the
prescription or the formula.
Each tradition has its own belief structure and imposed limits to
manifest a particular type and kind of creation based on what the
tradition was created to address in the first place or created to
sustain. In any tradition much of how creation is performed is
through the rituals and habits within that the system and the action
it creates in the followers of that tradition. For example, the use
of particular mathematical theorems and procedures in engineering
without really understanding the theorem or procedures are just as
much a ritual as the cleansing or purification actions performed
within a religions traditions. They only look different because of
what one creates with those rituals. Unless there is understanding
of what is done and why it is done, the creative activities are
essentially occurring subconsciously. That is, without a conscious
awareness and understanding. In the end, you may not even understand
what you really are creating in life by what has been given to you.
In many ways you can say what is presented here and the particular
approach that is utilize is itself a tradition. The goal of this
material is to help you develop the ability to hold a
single point focus to concentrate your understanding of your
creative abilities into a focused set of beliefs and then raise your
awareness of those beliefs to as high a level as possible where most
of your creation is done in consciousness. No particular tradition
or traditional approach is endorsed.
Rather you are encouraged to focus your attention and awareness on
your own heart and what is
symbolized by the heart and allow your
internal compass and the fulness of being to lead you. Then,
with that internal compass, you are encouraged to align with the
flow of your creative life energy, the Source of your being, to lead
your life. When most of our creation is done in consciousness, and
more importantly, in the conscious awareness of what is symbolized
in the heart, then we have the
true freedom to choose the reality of our choice. The approach
here is to assist the individual in accessing and developing their
own heart as a guide and access their own unique creative
methodology and context for creating. Then, in that conscious
awareness, they can expand their creative abilities in all
directions as diagramed in the figure below.
The
reason the approach used in this material encourages the use of what
is
symbolized by the heart as the instrument and/or the guide to
focus one’s creative ability because, in using the heart, two things
will happen. One is that your unique understanding and method of
creation will be revealed and your creative power and ability will
reside within your being and not dependent on any external source.
The second it that the
intention for your life that lies behind your
incarnation or your purpose for incarnating will be either
become consciously known to you or you will follow that intention as
you align your understanding around your heart. In either case, in
doing so, you will access and create a deep internal satisfaction
within your being that will provide you with a source of unlimited
satisfaction and creativity for you will have contacted the
source/Source of your being.
