A summary
comment
One question that has arisen is
how is, or why is, the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding of creativity,
our
inherent creativity, our
creative
ability and creative power, and the
nature of Creation
different than existing philosophical, esoteric, religious,
spiritual, psychological, scientific, secular and similar related
views of Creation and creativity.
There are two ways to view how this understanding is different. One
way is to look at approach and what type and kind of material is
presented as compared to other approaches and views of creativity
and the
nature of Creation.
The second way this material is different is that of perspective.
Its perspective is also different in two way. The first way the
perspective is different is that the perspective we have of Creation
and intention we hold makes all the difference in what we see and
experience when we access the
Source of Creation
in conscious awareness. In this regard, the question is “What is the
perspective and intention held by the author that gave rise to the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding when he
stumbled into the Source of Creation in conscious awareness and
how is, or was, that perspective different than others?”
Here it needs to be noted, from a
creativity perspective,
we are never removed from our connection to the
Source of Creation.
The flow of
creative life energy that sustains us and Creation flows
directly from the Source. However we are not consciously aware of
the connection or the Source. Yet, every
true creative endeavor takes us back into the Source to release
the
attachments that
bind our creative life energy to
free the energy necessary to manifest the new creation. From
time to time, depending on the focus of our attention and awareness,
it is possible to have a conscious experience of the Source. But it
is not something
mind can create for it is the
illusion of mind that keeps us unaware of the connection we have
with the Source.
The second way the perspective is different is the
Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity material captures the
creative process in which we enter when we choose to recreate
our life in some way. In this regard, the Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity material addresses what we can expect to experience if we
choose to recreate our life for one reasons or another. In many ways
the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity material documents the
attempt to reconcile the inner and outer changes that accompanied
the author’s transition in response to the specific intention he set
that caused him to
stumble into the Source of Creation in conscious awareness. In
this regard, it captures some of the types and kinds of things you
can expert to encounter if you were to choose to transform your life
in some way.
How
the material differs in what is presented
(Top)
The primary focus of the Releasing
Your Unlimited Creativity
material,
understanding and
approach is on the unique individual and what uniqueness lies
within what is
symbolized
by their heart. The goal is to create a
safe and secure space
and call forth the unique
creative spirit that resides within each heart to freely unfold
in the world. The focus is to give the individual what they need, to
the extent possible, to learn to trust their own
intuitive guidance and
body wisdom to be able to create a safe and secure space for
their creative spirit to freely unfold in the world. In doing so,
they are able to claim
their
birthright and become
creatively self empowered and self sufficient. Creation is
magical enough to allow each of us to live true to the
truth of our
own being and yet allow the other to remain
free to do the same.
Unfortunately, only the
intellectual or “classroom” portion of what is needed can be
given in written form as found on the web. The individual will need
to
eat and digest this material using what is useful and throwing
the remainder away. Then they will
need
to do their own experiments or act on what they come to
understand to make this knowledge an
experiential knowing to become part of their truth. There is no
path or practice to follow other than learning to use our
inner compass to guide our life. Recommendations and exercises
may be provided but each of us have a unique journey that only we
can take. No one can do it for us.
The emphasis on a few key areas are what seems to make this
materially different than others. These key area are discussed in
the topic “Key
areas in what is presented that seem to make the Releasing Your
Unlimited Creativity Material different”
Background on our perspective and the intention we hold
(Top)
As a result of the nature of the
creative process and how we
bind our creative life energy to have an experience of Creation,
we all have an experience of the
Source of Creation
at some level of our being every time we enter an
truly creative endeavor. We need to return to the Source to
free the energy for the next creation. As a
human being and being the
creativity machine that we are, we continually pass into and out
of the Source of Creation. But, through the
illusion created by mind, we never see or experience the Source
for what it is and most of our true creative efforts are done at the
nonconscious level.
Because of the
illusion of mind and the way it creates the illusion, the
perspective and intention we hold makes all the difference in what
we see and experience when we access the
Source of Creation
in conscious awareness. As discussed in the topic “The
problem of mind and the experience of the Source of Creation - the
trap of mind,” we can have a conscious experience of the Source
of Creation. But our consciousness returns from the Source to the
intention it held before entering the Source and to what it thinks
and believes about Creation.
It needs to be realized that
mind biases any experience we have by the experiences we have
had and the conscious and
nonconscious intentions we hold in entering the experience.
Whether we realize it or not, Creation is magical enough to allow
each of us to live true to the
truth of our
own being and yet allow the other to remain
free to do the same. Similarly, Creation is magical enough to
allow each of us to live the way our mind thinks we need to live and
perceive reality and yet allow others to live the way they are lead
to live. Most do not see such magic and find it difficult to live
with others who see and/or think differently or they are frightened
by such differences.
What needs to be understood is the origins of any creation lay in
the seed for how that creation will unfold when the creator returns
to the Source to
free the
creative life energy for that desired creation to form. The seed
for any creation is determined by the focus of the attention and
awareness of the consciousness
which becomes the cause of the flow of energy which gives, or
will give, rise to the creation.
To live life, everyone has a continual and reoccurring
nonconscious experience of the
Source of Creation.
We can never be removed from the Source and we are the Source
manifested. Many individuals have a conscious experience of the
Source of Creation but most never see it for what it is because the
illusion mind creates. Some of the experiences of the Source in
conscious awareness have given rise to great religions, spiritual
traditions,
mystical traditions, and/or individual
shamanic experiences, and the like. One question that can be
asked, but rarely is asked, is, “If all these individuals have an
experience of the same Source of Creation why is there such a
different in what is reported about the Source, what is taught and
believed about the Source and what needs to be done to align with
the Source?”
The answer to this question is found in what those who
stumble into the Source are looking for when they access the
Source. Many desire to alleviate
pain suffering, displeasure, escape
Physical Creation and the like. What needs to be considered and
understood is what the individual was looking for consciously and
nonconsciously in life when they stumbled into the Source. The
desire they possess and what they think and believed biases what
they see and experienced and what they bring back to give to others.
The
perspective and intention giving rise to the material
(Top)
Many views of Creation are colored
by the desire to escape
pain and/or transcend the uncomfortableness many find in the
physical experience. Many are looking for
heaven, the Kingdom of God, or Nirvana or someplace that pain
and suffering is no longer found. Others are looking to find a place
of
freedom. In running away from something or running toward
something we do not see the entire picture. We only see what
mind wants to see to reach its objective. That in turn, does not
give us a true picture of the Source.
It is here the root of the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding is
significantly different. The author was not running away from or
toward anything for himself. Rather he was asking a question about
how does one become something they are not. He was totally open to
what guidance was provided to become it. He was willing to become a
creative shape shifter and become whatever was necessary for the
new creation.
The intention which ultimately gave rise to
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding was the desire
to embody unconditional
love with no thought as to whether or not
pain could, or would, arise as result of such an embodiment. Nor
was their consideration of what might happen to become such an
embodiment. There were no altruistic desires or interests in having
such a desire. As described below, the interest was purely for
practical reasons. In many ways the intention was an accidental
calling forth of the author’s
creative spirit to create such an embodiment and recreate the
authors life.
Hence, what lies at the origins of the
Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity material is a deep and profound
love unknowingly access by the author and of a type of love of
which the author was never aware existed. Exactly how and why this
love makes the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity material is
different than other views of creativity is probably best expressed
in a note to a friend which overviews what happened.
“In a rather foolish and naive way, I decided I wanted
to set the intention to become unconditional
love. The reason for such an intention was simply to try and
access the ability to be able to tolerate those whom I did not like
and/or with whom I did wish to be. In many ways I desired to be
accepting and patient but my
mind thought and saw what was needed as an unconditional love. I
assumed that if I could love unconditionally, to become
unconditional love, I would be able to tolerate those who were
unpleasant or otherwise I disliked. There was no other interest in
pursuing such an intention. Yet I didn’t really know for what I as
asking to become. Since I, as most of us, never consciously
experienced unconditional love, I really didn’t know for what I was
asking.
“To achieve this end, I
created a transcript and recorded the transcript on a tape which
I played each night for a couple of months as I went to sleep. The
logic was to reprogram myself in the twilight zone between sleep and
being aware. I understood that was when we are most open to
suggestions. I figured it was the easiest way to reprogram myself
based on all that I had read. The results were not what I had
anticipated or even had a context for understanding. I had
unknowingly chosen to become the
phoenix and had started a process to recreate myself and my life”
Although the author understood we create with our thought and he had
every intention of recreating his life, he did not understand the
process as to how the Universe responses to meet our intentions.
Unknown to the author at the time, in setting the intention to
become unconditional, the opportunity was provided: (1) to learn to
embody unconditional
love and to experience it; (2) to see how we do have the
creative
ability and creative power to totally recreate ourselves and our
life if we so choose to do so and (3) to experience the
creative process of recreating ourselves first hand. The notes
made about the creative/creation process as experienced first hand
is the basis of much of what is discussed and provided in the
Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity material.
A conscious experience of the
creative process (Top)
As said above, the seed for any
creation is determined by the focus of the attention and awareness
of the consciousness which
becomes the cause of the flow of energy which gives, or will give, rise
to the creation. To create the flow of energy necessary for the new
creation it is necessary to return to the
Source of Creation
to
free the bound
creative life energy so that it may flow into the new creation.
Associated with this return to the Source and inherent in the
creative process is an experience of the
sacrifice of creation
and an experience of the
chaos of the creation as the existing form
is dissolved. The energy, once freed, then flows into a form
determined by the focus of the attention and awareness of the
consciousness which became the cause. In the author’s case, the
energy flows into an expression of unconditional
love to fulfill the intention he set which ultimately appeared
as the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity
material and
understanding.
What needs to be understood about the
creative process is there needs to be a
creative tension to
cause the energy to flow into the desired new creation. Without that
creative tension, there is no flow. It is much like the terminals of
a battery. There is a separation of the electrical charges which
gives rise to the potential for a flow of energy. The separation
provides for the creative tension and in a battery, it is the
connection of those separated charges by a wire that allows a
current to flow. We can say the wire
grounds the higher electrical
potential to a place of lower potential resulting in the current
flow.
Energetically, the same things occurs within us for any
creative endeavor and we can feel the process if we are
open to feeling. There will be a separation of some types which will give
rise to the
creative tension which is essential to create the
conditions for a flow of energy to occur. If we are open to feeling,
we will feel the creative tension within our being. Depending on
what we desire to create and the magnitude of the energy necessary
for the new creation, what we can feel lies on a spectrum. It can
ranges from a mild feeling of excitement about something and/or a
pull toward something or it can be so intense as to be
excruciatingly painful.
Analogously, there will be some type of
grounding or connection that
is made as the wire connecting two terminals of a battery that
allows the energy to flow to manifest and/or animate the creation.
Again, we can feel the flow of energy within our being as it flows
into manifestation. What is different in our
creative endeavors is that we can feel the entire process. We
feel the
creative tension, we can feel the flow of energy, and we
can feel the
dissipation of the energy. Our
mind often calls what we feel
emotions. In reality, they are
only the different aspects of the
creative process. Exactly what we feel depends on what aspect of
the creative process on which we focus.
What an experience of the
creative process feels like, the tension, the flow, the
dissipations, is best addressed in returning to the author’s note to
a friend. It also need to be noted
that the creation process occurs over time. It is not something
instantaneous but more like a plant which grows and changes over
time.
The
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity
material,
understanding and
approach captures the
lessons learned in the author experience of
the
creative process in response to the intention he set to embody
unconditional
love. One description of this experience is found in the topic,
“A conscious experience of the creative process to recreate onself.”
Did the
author become an embodiment of unconditional love
(Top)
One question that can be asked is,
“Did the author really become the embodiment of unconditional
love?” The answer is, “It all depends on what you think and
believe unconditional love is?”
As stated above, the author set the intention to embody
unconditional
love when he really did know exactly what it was or what it
looked like. His
mind had its idea but what he came to experience about the
nature of Creation
and
what it means to be a human being was something totally
unexpected. Whether or not the author become unconditional love to
live from the understanding he gained or whether he gained some
understanding of unconditional love is open to question. However,
the author came to understanding four things relative to
unconditional love.
Nourishing a creation: Relative to a
creative endeavor, we need to give of oneself to become whatever
the creation requires. In essence it is to sacrifice our life for a
creation for that creation to be nurtured, grow and unfold the way
it needs to do. In this regard, it is much like what nature does in
some ways.
Everything will eat something or be eaten by another in some way. But in other ways,
nature is not seen as unconditional and freely giving to all
creations. Some seem to be favored over others such that there
appears to be an evolution and natural selection.
It is when we are asked by Creation to become the nourishment for a
creation that we do not choose to nourish that we learn what to give
unconditionally really means. If we, in any way, get to choose what
we nourish, it is not unconditional since our
mind is involved and making the choice. To give unconditionally
is to give totally what is required by the creation without any
control or influence by
mind and we do not act for ourselves in any way.
In the author’s case, he was routinely asked to freely give himself
in opposition to what his
mind wanted or desired to nourish many creations in order to
obtain the understanding that lies within the Releasing Your
Unlimited Creativity
material and
understanding. It that regard,
there was an embodiment of being unconditional.
The Source is unconditional: In looking at what the author really
learned about experiencing the
Source of Creation
and how any creation unfolds from the Source it can be said the
Source is not what we would all unconditional
love. Rather the Source is totally unconditional it its
creation/Creation and what it nourishes and sustains. The energy
within Creation will mold itself into an experience of whatever on
which consciousness focuses its attention and awareness. It does not
matter what it is. In this regard, the Source gives freely to what
consciousness desires to experience. In this regard,
creation/Creation is intentional and there is a conscious or
nonconscious intention which gives rise to any creation.
The issue we face, that does not allow us to see how unconditional
the
Source of Creation
is, is that the Source is honoring the
intention for our life and
our
mind continually tries to alter that experience based on what it
has come to think and believe.
Intention for our life: As stated above,
creation/Creation is
intentional. There is an
intention that governs our life and there
is a reason for us being here. The
Source of Creation
is unconditionally nourishing that intention. We have a
free will
and we can use the energy that is nourishing our life in whatever
way we wish. The question, “Do we do
what
mind wants, do we do
what our heart wants or do we
learn to
dance between the two?”
We are part of a larger process: As a human being, we are a
creation
within a creation/Creation. The
Source of Creation
unconditionally nourishes the
creation/Creation of which we are a
part and it unconditionally nourishes us, the
intention for our life, in alignment with the intention for the creation/Creation of
which we are a part. It this regard, we experience Creation as
though our wants and needs are not met. But we fail to realize how
much our
mind is
creating an illusion as to the true nature of the Creation we
experience and the life we have within Creation. To seen and
understand this, we need to be willing to
step out of mind
and become a
detached witness, and allow ourselves to see
creation/Creation for what it truly is.
A
summary comment (Top)
Probably the single greatest
understanding gained in having
set the intention to embody
unconditional
love is that there is an
intention governing our life. We are
not here by accident. Additionally, the world we experience and the
individuals in that world are there to give us the experience we
desire to have at some level of our being.
The author was quite surprised to find there was an
intention governing
his life. Yet, in hind sight, he knew he was aware of that
intention at about age four and clearly again at age six. He knew
what he came to do. But his
mind as a child did not have the
minimum set of experience to really understand
what he saw and knew or how to go about doing what he came to do.
Nevertheless, he knew through a deep inner feeling where he needed
to go in life and what he needed to do. The task at hand was simply
to stay locked onto the feeling and it carried him where he needed
to be while he awaited for his mind to catch up in understanding.
In regard to the
intention for our life, if we like our life, all of
it, and have
a life worth living, we simply need to
give a toast to
life and continue to do what we do. If however, we do not like what
we experience for one reason or another, there is the need to go
deep within to see what it is we desire to experience and and why.
We need to understand how our
mind may be interfering what we
incarnated to do. Then, in that
awareness, we can change what we experience.
However, we cannot access this understanding with our
mind. We need to
open ourselves to feeling and look to
the
awareness that lies in feeling. We need to look behind what we feel
and to what is giving rise to what we feel. It is there we can see
through time and space and see how unconditional the
Source of Creation
really is.
