In the discussion “The
Bohr Challenge” the concept of
looking to nature to see how
creation/Creation works was introduced. This concept was
introduced because of the revolutionary insights Bohr obtained when
he looked to nature as to how the atom worked. So too how
consciousness and energy work. We look to nature to see what nature
says about them.
When we
look to nature it seems many living things undergo a sleep -
awake cycles. Whether all living thing go to sleep is another
question. As humans, sleep is essential to our well being. For now
we leave open the question as to whether or not consciousness goes
to sleep on either in nonhuman perspective or a cosmic perspective.
The topic “The
energy consciousness perspective of sleep” discusses sleep in
greater depth. But, from a human perspective, and for our
creative endeavors
it can be said our consciousness goes through cycles of
awakening and sleep.
At a working level the premise is that consciousness will undergo
cycle of going to sleep and awakening. What is important are the
experiences consciousness has had, the focus of the attention and
awareness of consciousness at the time of going to sleep, and the
intention consciousness holds when going to sleep. These will
influence if not determine what consciousness believes about itself
when it awakens. We can use this understanding to access information
about
creation/Creation as discussed in the topic “Using
sleep and nocturnal dreams to access information.”
The recommendation made here is to become aware and awake to what
you are holding in mind when going to sleep. As necessary work to
change it such that your sleep can help you create what you desire.
For example, the author described in the topic, “A
Foolish Thing” and the sample format “Unconditional
Love Tape Transcript” creating a tape which he played whenever
he went to sleep. His intention was to use the sleep state to
reprogram himself based on the tape transcript.
How effective this method is to
making changes within our being is open to your judgment. But it
must be understood, we are not necessarily consciously aware of the
shift in our non conscious mind and its
belief structure and how those change influence our life.
Exactly how we respond to life as a result of the changes in the
subconscious belief structure may be different than what we expect.
Whatever we attempt to insert beliefs into our subconscious mind, we
do so because we expect or hope for certain results. However, we may
make the changes we desire but those changes get manifested other
than expected. It needs to be understood, changing our subconscious
belief structure is not like exposing someone to a set of beliefs
and expecting someone to act a certain way in response to those
beliefs. Inserting beliefs into our belief structure may change our
entire perspective and cause us to respond to life in an entirely
new direction.
Redefining oneself without
changing
One of the “tricks” consciousness
uses to redefine itself without having to really change is to allows
itself to “go to sleep” and forget.
Sleep is seen only a natural
forgetting process to help create new experiences. In the same way
we go to sleep to heal or energize a tired body, sleep allows
consciousness to
release the energy it binds in the experiences it has. That
freed energy in turn becomes available for a new creation and we
experience it as refreshing us or energizing our life. Also sleep
allows us to forget how we create our experiences as the creator so
that we can have the experience of our desired creation.
It needs to be noted, consciousness will go to sleep where there is
no contrast or change to the experience. Only change and the
differences in change allow us to awaken. Change and difference
allows us to define ourselves by determining “I am not that.”, “I
don’t like that.”, “I am like this.” If nothing ever changes, we
will never know if we have been awake, or fallen asleep and awaken
again, since we have nothing in which to compare the two moments.
Change and comparison of the changes is the only way consciousness
knows if it is awake. The more change of which we are consciously
aware, the more awake we will be. Alternatively said, consciousness
get bored with what it creates and how it defined itself when there
is no contrast. It goes to sleep and the sleep process is a
forgetting process. We can go to sleep at any or all levels of our
being. But it needs to be realized that forgetting is intentional.
We intend to forget that we are the creator of our experiences so
that we can experience the creation. The only draw back to going to
sleep is we never fully dissolve all the pattern and habits we
created. Sleep allows us to forget but it takes only one similar
circumstance or event to resurface the habits of the past and then
we wonder why we seem to continually recreate the past. To change
the past, we must rearrange the energy bound in the memory of the
past to an arrangement that
serves us.
What needs to be understood here is that we will undergo cycles of
sleep and awakening. It is natural and inherent to who and what we
are. We can learn use these cycles to forget and rejuvenate our
creative power and ability. We do so by learning to hold a
clear intention when we go to sleep for what we desire to create
in the future. Or, we can learn to interrupt our cycle of sleep so
as to change what we experience.
