healing
Setting the intention to reconstitute our
creative
ability and creative power is different than most intentions we set to create
something in our life. The intention we need to set has four parts.
-
We need
to set the
intention to
reconstitute our
creative life energy and regain our creative power and creative ability.
-
We to set the
intention to explore any
nonconscious intentions
which may be diverting the flow of our creative life energy away
from what gives us life and in all aspects of our being
-
We need to be willing to return to as state of being similar to
which we entered this life. That is, a state of being of spontaneous
and innocent
childlike play of discovery and exploration of each and
every aspect of our being - spiritual, mental, emotional and
physical
-
Clarity on what we desire to create when we act to reconstitute
our
creative
ability and creative power and why we desire to create
it.
-
The intention can also be adjusted for other considerations such
as to make the
journey as gentle as possible and/or for those in our
life who do not like what we are being coming are lead to where they
are safe and secure.
The big question
(Top)
The big question we face in setting this intention is how much of
our
creative power and creative ability we wish to
reconstitute and
consolidate. In realizing we are pulling our creative power and
creative ability back from what we created in and with our life, we
can cause our whole life to collapse. How big a transformation of
our life we will face totally depends on how far out of alignment
what we create is from the
intention for our life. It depends on how
much of our
creative life energy has been directed into activities
that have not honored and
held our creativity sacred. Rather they
have robbed us our creative life energy and/or held/hold our
creative spirit captive. For some, their whole life will collapse.
For these individual, the magnitude of the change may just be too
great. For other, there will be nothing out of the ordinary.
Only we can answer the question as to how much of our
creative power and creative ability we
reconstitute. The recommendation is to go
with what feels correct. If we chose to make the journey to explore
and discover
our creative passion no matter how narrow and shallow
we go or how deep or broad we go, we need to
give ourselves
permission to do so. It is recommend some type of written
authorization statement documenting our choice to manifest the
intention that we set be created. It can be as simple as I give
myself permission to manifest my intention to.... or as elaborate
as we feel necessary. The permission statement we write and our
intention should be witnessed by an someone who is willing to fully
support our journey. It also tells them, what they will be
supporting.
Obtaining support from another or using another is discussed in the
topics, Support for, and getting support from, another, The commitment of those who work with us, and To choose or not to chose a teacher?
Setting the intention (Top)
The topic, To set
an
intention provides some thoughts and
recommendations as to how to set an intention. In addition to what
is provided in that topic deep consideration should be given to the
following.
Acting to
reconstitute our
creative power and creative ability is no
simply effort and is a
journey that can take quite some time. The
topic, How long the journey of reconstitution, provides a
discussion on how long the journey may take and how one might go
about shortening the journey. However, no matter how long the
journey takes, to create anything there are
five requirements. One
require is to have the
passion and the energy to do what needs to be
done for the duration of the journey.
One way to help get that
passion is to construct an appropriate
ritual and/or
metatheater where we catalyze ourselves for our
journey. The memory of the ritual and/or metatheater can be accessed
for the duration of the journey to inspire us to continue forward.
Even without the ritual and/or metatheater acting as a catalyst is
can serve us in two ways. One is to consolidate our thinking as to
exactly what we wish to create. The other is to act as if we drew a
line in the sand over which we step separating our past to which we
will not return from our future into which we have stepped. The
ritual and/or metatheater can also be used to address some of the
topics discussed below such as acting on and
honoring the intuitive
guidance we get.
We will need to
pull the string on the intention we hold and look at
exactly what is motivating us to act. Some of the types and kinds of
question we need to ask ourselves are as follows:
-
What is my intention?
-
Why do I hold this intention - what do I really seek?
-
What am I desiring to create and why?
-
What would or does success look like to or for me in achieving
this intention?
-
Is what I desire to create and the way I wish to create it in any
way is in opposition to the intention or purpose that brought me
into incarnation?
-
How important is my intention and the success of my intention -
what am I willing to give up to manifest my intention and achieve
success?
It setting our intention, we
need to remember that everyone is unique. Everyone has unique
methods for creating the reality that they currently experience. We
each have a unique
creative
passion
that we use to create our experiences.
Our creative passion is the
key to what is
symbolized by our heart. Our creative passion is what
causes us to long for oneness and/or wholeness, long for the
beloved/Beloved, and even fuels anything else we desire when
mind
overlays what it wants. Our creative passion is what allows us to be
both the creator and the embodiment of our creation as expressed in,
or by, our unique creative passion. We only need to ask ourselves to
allow the key to our unique creative passion to be revealed and
either be given to us or show us where and how to get it.
As we work to get clarity on our intention, our
intuitive guidance
will tell us what we need to learn and, within the overall process,
how and when we need to learn it. As we get clarity, we should write
our intention down and look to make sure the words accurately
reflect what we intend. To know whether our intention is correct for
what we wish to create, we will know by how it feels. There will
be a feeling about what we are attempting to do such that we will
know if it is correct or whether we need to do a little more
exploring as to what it is we really desire to create.
Consulting our intuitive guidance
(Top)
To
reconstitute our
creative
ability and creative power, requires us
to pull back our
creative life energy from all aspects of our life
where we have thrust out to create one thing or another that is
somehow robbing and or depleting the flow of our creative life
energy. This effort includes surfacing
our
nonconscious intentions that caused and/or were the occasion to
originally create what we have created. It requires us to create a
composite intention for our life that allows us to optimize our
creative ability and creative power. To do these we need to explore
any nonconscious intention we hold that divert our creative life
energy from the
intention for our life. Since they are nonconscious,
we will have to either allow life events to surface them or consult
our
intuitive guidance and go exploring for them.
In setting our intention to explore the
nonconscious, we will need
to ask our
body wisdom to communicate with us. We need to
give permission for our
mind to move aside and allow our body to feel and
know its wisdom. We need to ask our consciousness to know in some
way when our mind is masking a body feeling or acting as an imposter
creating a feeling. The natural response of our ego is to maintain
its identity. It will not always be willing for us to surface
memories that it has used to determine its identity to have the
memory changed. So we can expect mind to lead us astray from time to
time and/or offer resistance as to what our
intuitive guidance
and/or body wisdom is communicating to us.
We will need to state something to the equivalent of, I
give permission for my body and its wisdom to speak to me and to let my
me know when my
mind is masking any
body response and/or feeling or where mind is imposing itself over
my
intuitive guidance in any why. We the need to ask ourselves and
our intuitive guidance the following types of questions.
Where and why have I blocked my
body wisdom?
Where and why have I shutdown my feelings or the ability to feel?
In doing so, we need to need to capture the images, thoughts,
feelings and/or body sensations that arise in response to these
questions and take action in some way to remove whatever is not
allowing us to be open to our
body wisdom and what we feel.
Returning to a state of childlike play
(Top)
Exploring the
nonconscious mind requires us to go into both the
mental and body memories from the earliest days of our life, or even
into other lives, which we hold and that in some way or another
bind
our
creative life energy in past experiences where the
energy was
never fully dissipated and released. This includes both painful and
pleasurable experiences. It is to become a pliable and malleable new
born in all aspects of our being to be recast based on the what we
now desire to create with a consolidated and coherent
creative
ability and creative power.
We ultimately need to return to a state of being similar to when we
entered life. It is to return to the most powerful creative state of
being. It is a state of being where we are free to enter spontaneous
and innocent
childlike play to discovery and explore any aspect of
Creation at each and every level of our being - spiritually,
mentally, emotionally and physically. Exactly what will need to be
explore will depend on how, where, and why we have diverted the flow
of our
creative life energy from the
intention for our life and the
type and kind of cage we have created that holds our
creative spirit
captive.
One approach to returning to a state of play is addressed in the
topic, A practical method to returning to creative play.
An issue of healing
(Top)
Since we are probing our
nonconscious intentions and memories, we
would not be surprised as any body response we get we create the
conditions of our body in the nonconscious
mind. In responding to
the probing questions we ask, we may find an aspect of our being
needs
healed and the healing could be at any level of our being. We
may find ourselves facing some type or kind of body condition, such
as an
illness, or a
pain reflecting what we access. Often the energy
in the memories need to be processed and one of the ways it process
the energy is through an illness and/or surfacing of a
pain to tell
us where to look.
To
reconstitute our
creative
ability and creative power and become
whole to manifest what we desire, we will need to be
free to
accept that
healing and face the
pain. Sometimes our wounds and
associates pains are our defenses keeping us where we are and in the
reality that is currently manifesting. Wounds and pains are very
effective tools that
mind can use to keep us bound. Rather than
process the energy and allow our
creative spirit to become free, we
hold the energy and keep ourselves bound. The fear of opening these
wounds of the past or creating similar wound can cause us to avoid
exactly what needs to be addressed. The resistance we feel can be
quite strong. For some individuals it is easier to live with a wound
that face the fear and the unknown that go along with the healing of
that wound.
This is one reason why it is recommended to include in our intention
that we make the
journey as
gentle as possible. In making such a
request, our
intuitive guidance will
honor it. It will look for ways
to face what we need to face but to do it as gently as possible.
However, gentle is a relative term and we never know that path we
would have had to take if we did not make such an intention. All we
can really do is
trust the power of our intention and trust universe
will honor our request. If we dont particularly like what we are
facing, we can always ask, Why do I have to face this
pain,
illness
or the like? However, we will need to be open to the answer we get.
