Throughout the Releasing Your
Unlimited Creativity material it is said creation/Creation is a
dance and/or the concept of a dance is discussed. The question is,
“What does it really mean to dance and why is creation/Creation a
dance?”
As applicable here, to dance is typically defined as the movement
the body and feet rhythmically, especially to music. It is to move
about lightly or excitedly as to leap about. A dance is a series of
rhythmic regular steps or movements usually performed to music.
There are several things to note about dancing. One is that a dance
is characterized by movement. That is, there is a flow of energy.
The question is, “How does the energy flow to cause the movement?”
This, in turn, leads to the point that the dance tends to be
rhythmic. That is, a dance is usually not a random series of
movements. There is an “organization” of some type with the flow of
energy that is giving rise to the dance. That is the rhythm of the
dance. The rhythm of the dance is what determined when each foot it
moved and/or the body is moved. There is a time to move and a time
not to move. When you look from outside the dance you will see
constant movement. When you look from the perspective of one of the
feet, there is a time of rest and nothing seems to happen. If you
move before the last step is completed. You must wait. If you move
too early you will fall out of the dance if not stumble and fall
down.
A second notes is there needs to be a lightness to be able to move
in rhythmic manner. One must be
free.If one holds on to the last movement, they cannot make the
next move.
A third thing about the dance is that there is a rhythm to the
dance. The rhythm controls the dance and determines what the dance
looks like. The rhythm lies outside the dance. The rhythm exists
before the dance. It is the “blueprint” for the dance. If we change
the rhythm we change the dance. The rhythm is what is key to the
performance of the dance and determines the movements. We must
surrender to the rhythm of the dance and allow it to lead our
actions.
In looking at the dance, probably the most import thing about the
dance is that before you can dance you must
learn to walk and to walk is about knowing how to go in and out
of balance.
Relative to our creative endeavors, it can be said, there will be a
flow of energy that determines the time to move and time not to
move. We must let go of the past and be free to move when the flow
of energy requires us to move. We must surrender to the movement
that is required or otherwise we will not create what we desire. The
flow of energy to create what we desire is determined by the
intention we set and the environment in which we find ourselves.
