The illusion of mind and Creation

Illusion of Creation is that we do not perceive ourselves as one with what we experience. Rather, we perceive ourselves as separate form the what we experience. What we see before us is one with us. The illusion of Creation is that we believe our awareness is not the awareness which gave rise to the Creator who experience Its Creation.

The illusion of mind and the illusion of Creation are really the same thing only viewed from different perspectives. The illusion of mind is that we filter what we experience with our current mind, our enculturated mind, or transcendental mind and do not see reality for what it is. But it is the illusion of mind is what gives rise to the experience of Creation. The illusion of Creation is a particular type and kind of illusion created by mind. The illusion of Creation is what the mind of the consciousness within, or behind, Creation experiences to give rise to the existence of Creation.

The illusion of mind is dispelled when the creator/Creator realizes they are only experiencing their creation/Creation. The illusion of Creation is dispelled when the consciousness within, or behind, Creation realizes it is only experiencing it Creation.

On this point it needs to be noted, getting past the illusion of mind does not mean we get past the illusion of Creation. We each are an individuated point of consciousness. When any one of us gets past the illusion of mind, we see Creation for what it is and ourselves for what we are. But we are only an aspect of the consciousness within, or behind, Creation. To awaken to the illusion of Creation, we need to go into the depths of our nonconscious mind to make the nonconscious conscious to a Cosmic Consciousness. Then, from that point, we can dispel the illusion of Creation.

Each point of consciousness is a unique aspect of the consciousness within, or behind, Creation or rather capable of awakening to be a unique aspect. . Each is infinitely creative and infinitely vast. It is ultimately identical to the original consciousness and one with it. It is just asleep and unaware of this fact. As a result of this illusion, each is an entity and a universe unto itself. Each, if it so chooses, is capable of expanding its awareness to encompass all of Creation or creating a Creation as vast as the universe unto itself separate from Creation. Each of us are one of those individualized points of consciousness.

Additionally, each of these individualized points of consciousness is holographic. Because each individualized point of consciousness is only the expression of an aspect of the original infinite consciousness, each contains the whole. However, the illusion of Creation, keeps the individualized point of consciousness in unawareness of this fact. Within the illusion, the whole is unavailable to the individualized consciousness to access it.

The greater the awakened awareness of any one individualized point of consciousness the greater awareness it has of the whole. Yet, the whole can be seen in any one individualized point of consciousness. It is like a hologram. The smaller the piece the less clarity as to whole. The greater the piece of hologram, the greater the clarity. In essence, we increase the size of the piece of the hologram by expanding our awareness

This is the whole basis of the concept called enlightenment. It is to awaken our awareness to the wholeness of what is. The greater the awareness awakened, the greater the clarity as to the true nature of Creation. If the individualized consciousness could awaken to an infinite awareness it would achieve a cosmic consciousness and have the awareness of the whole. But then it would not be perceiving as an individualized consciousness. Rather it would have come full circle back to the point of origin - a Cosmic Consciousness looking for a playmate with Whom to share Itself.

In this regard, the illusion of Creation is that each of us are the Creator experiencing its Creation. The infinity of Creation lies within the nonconscious of each individualized aspect of Consciousness and within each of us. As such we are simply Consciousness experiencing Its Creator or, alternatively said, we are the Creator experiencing Its Creator.

The illusion of mind is that we do not have an infinitely vast consciousness which permeates all of Creation. Illusion of Creation is that our consciousness is not one with the consciousness of All That Is. The illusion of Creation is a result of the ability of mind to allow consciousness to focuses its attention and awareness in a way that there is a conscious portion and a nonconscious portion. This results in mind creating a compartment like structure were only a small portion of its awareness is conscious. Or, it can be seen as creating a lens or filter through which the awareness views Creation.

To get out of the illusion of Creation while in the body or, better said, while having the experience of Physical Creation experienced as a human being, is to stumble into the Ultimate Accident. Having a body is what holds us in the illusion of Creation. Having an ego holds us in the illusion of mind. This is why many spiritual and religious traditions say we cannot experience the Source until we transcend the body. But even is we transcend the body, we still have the ego with which to address. Never the less we can get around both the illusion of mind and the illusion of Creation while in a body by becoming a detached witness and acting on the understanding of how we create our experiences and create the reality we experience.

We escape the illusion of mind and the illusion of Creation by becoming a detached witness and acting on the awareness that all is interconnected and the individual before us is only there to give us the experience we desire to have at some level of our being. Taking things personally is what causes us to hurt and holds us bound to the illusion of mind and to the illusion of Creation. What we experience is only giving us what we desire to experience, for one reason or another, at some level of our being

Our problem is we have our expectations as to how things need or should manifest. We do not know enough about the creative process and how we create to understand what happens to us is not by accident. There are flows of energy that are governing and/or influencing our life. Some have been created before we incarnated. Some have been created after we incarnated. Some have been created by us. The issue is to let go and begin to observe and look to see what really serves us and allows us to create a life worth living.

We may not be able to create that life or even create something that really serves us. However, if we don’t’ focus on creating them, they will never happen. If we do focus on creating them we create the possibility of them occurring. It is then a matter of making that which is possible probable and that which is probable a certainty. It is to act in the awareness that at some level of our being we have created all that we experience. We have only forgotten how we have done it so we can become lost in our creation to experience creation/Creation.

The illusion of Creation is maintained as a result of each individuated point of consciousness having it own natural cycle of sleep and being awake. Since we are all interconnected and overlap, part of us are always going to sleep and awakening. If we fully awoke we would only see we are that original Cosmic Consciousness simply at play with Itself.
