The author and developer of the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity, Ken Ferlic, is
inherently a mystic who was formally trained as an energy
physicist. These two seemingly diverse but yet interrelated
backgrounds help explain the
interdisciplinary aspect of the Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity material and gave rise to his mystical path and
professional path respectively as introduced below. In many ways you
could say he lived in a world of separation where these two paths
were separate until they come back together in the
Ultimate Accident.
How and why it said he is inherently a mystic is provided in the
discussion similarly entitled “Inherently
a Mystic.” Why he became an energy physicist is similarly
discussed in “Why
Become a Physicist.” In actually, although not aware of it at
the time, his decision to become an energy physicist arose out of
the best acceptable expression he found early in life for his
mystical nature and about what he understood
needed to be learned.
His first conscious attempt to bridge these seemingly separate
worlds of
mysticism and energy physics occurred in graduate school where
we began to contemplate if the
human body was an energy detector. Working every day with unseen
energy and only using an instrument to detect the presence of the
energy, he wonder if the human body were properly calibrate could it
not be use to sense unseen energy. At that time it was only a
thought. But it grew into action years later.
His
first conscious experience of memory that he would consider a
shamanic experience and/or
mystical experience of occurred at age three. Obviously unknown
to him at the time, this ultimately set the stage for the Releasing
Your Unlimited Creativity Technology. It was this experience which
set the understanding for the need to nourish
our creative spirit, and what occurs if it is not nourished, and
the
role of the nurturing feminine creative aspect in the creation
process. The importance of role of the nurturing feminine creative
energy in the creative process to create a safe space for unfoldment
and how it is utilized in the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity
approach is metaphorically reflected in a dream of one of he
author’s early clients.
In seeing the author’s focus on the nurturing feminine creative
energy, some would say he has unconsciously spent his life trying to
resolve a traumatic experience of very early life he experienced as
a child. In a shallow view of life this could be considered
absolutely correct. However, if you experience the source of your
being and embrace your creative power by holding your creativity
sacred, you will see an entirely different view of yourself, what it
means to be human and Creation, and why this childhood experience
was so important. The early experience, as do all
experience imprinted a feeling in his subconscious that become a
key factor in developing the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity
understanding. If you explore the depth and breadth of your
creativity, you too will find deep undercurrents to life that carry
your to certain types and kinds of needed experiences that are much
harder to discard than merely seeing them as a life experience never
fully resolved as a child or within a child’s mind.
The author has a Bachelors and Master of Science in Physics and
postgraduate education in nuclear/radiation physics. Being a mystic
and an energy physicist, he essentially lived what appeared to be
two separate but periodically overlapping paths for the first half
of his life. The second half of his life started when he
remembered what he
incarnated to do when we stumbled into the
Ultimate Accident and
experienced the Source of Creation.
One path, the
professional path was based on his formal training. It was a
more conscious path where he thought he was making the decisions for
his life and choosing the career path he was following This path was
based on his enculturation and how he thought he was suppose to live
life and how he was taught the world worked. It is best described as
the
enculturated ego path for it reflects the information his ego
would use to define itself until his ego was shattered much like the
Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme. It would take years for him to
understand the depth and breadth of his mystical nature and what it
really meant. Throughout this path was a deep undercurrent nudging
him in a particular direction. Exactly what that undercurrent meant
and what was it cause only occurred after the remembering.
The professional path was creatively a very
masculine orientated path. It was dominated by the “I” and what
“I” wanted and/or “I” thought was important and thought success to
be. It was very much about the ego thrusting out into the world and
making a mark in the world. It was about making a mark in the way
mind thought a mark needed to be made. (More
on ....the professional path)
The other path was the
mystical path. It was a path not necessarily embraced by the
ego. This path tended to be more of an unconscious path only
occasionally surfacing. It laid behind the scene as an undercurrent.
Although it did surface from time to time, it was never seen for
what it was. The mystical path was a path he pursued more out of an
internal feeling to seek certain things in life the ego did not
necessarily embrace or understand. There were certain things he just
had to do or otherwise there would be an inner pain, longing or
incessant pulling. These internal feeling can be described as the
essence of one’s internal
compass and a methodology has been provided to access and
calibrate your internal compass. In time, the mystical path grew
into something much larger and more important than his mind could
expect. In reality it reflected the undercurrent of his life and the
unfoldment of his
creative spirit. This path was only revealed for what it was
when he stepped out of his enculturated programming and how he
thought life was suppose to work. That, of course, is another story
and the occasion of the
Ultimate Accident.
The mystical path was
creatively a very feminine and nurturing path. It nourished and
energized the life that was unfolding but never looked to make
itself known. It only revealed itself what it was needed to come
forth and help to manifest a new creation. (More
on .... the mystical path)
The two paths were eventually brought together and reversed in
developing the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity Technology. The
mystical path is the path that ultimately gave rise to the Releasing
Your Unlimited Creativity understanding. Although it was the
understanding of energy that came from being trained in physics, it
was the
awakening of the feminine that nurtured the unfoldment of the
awareness behind the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity Technology
that gave rise to the Technology as you now see it. In essence, the
feminine had to learn to thrust out into the world and the masculine
has to surrender and nurture that now thrusting feminine. This
reversal of the masculine and feminine aspects of our being is what
needs to occur within each of us if we are going to bridge the
separation individuals feel between their inner and outer worlds. It
then turns into a series of dances. A dance between the inner
masculine and inner feminine (the
inner dance), a dance between our creative spirit (our inner
world) and the world in which we find ourselves (the
outer dance) and the
dance of the creator and its creation.
Working with energy applications and ways to ensure the safe
application of energy on the professional path provided the
framework for understanding as to how we create our experiences and
how to manage the energy that give rise to our experiences. That
energy framework allows for bridging from the unseen world of energy
and the world of the creative imagination to manifest those creative
inspirations in the physical world. But it was the awareness of the
flow of the nurturing energy that arises through the feminine and
surrendering to that energy which provided the unfoldment.
In essence there was a marriage of the two separate paths. The
marriage of the two occurred in the
Ultimate Accident which precipitated an intense ten year
conscious effort exploring the motivation for the creative actions
of individuals. What started out in a
conscious journey to explore organizational creativity turned
into an exploration of the deeper parts of our inner world and a
journey into the world of mysticism and shamanism.
It was a journey into
mysticism for it relied on the author’s intuitive guidance and
internal source of knowledge to guide him rather than is
enculturated mind. It was a journey into
shamanism in two ways. It was his unique experience of the
unseen world where he needed to relay on his intuitive guidance and
internal compass to guide him in the darkness of the unseen world,
the subconscious world and the unknown. It was also a journey into
shamanism for
he
experience several of the types and kinds of events of a
traditional shamanic initiation that many shamans encounter in their
life.
In many ways what the author thought was a journey to exploring
organizational creativity was a courtship. The masculine mind
courted the feminine intuitive guidance through exploring the nature
of creativity. That is, the author began to creative play and
experiment with his intuitive guidance. In time, he began to use his
intuitive guidance to guide his exploration of organizational
creativity. It that exploration, the author began to trust and relay
on his intuitive guidance more and more. In actually, is was
increasing the probably of the Ultimate Accident.
But is was the
Ultimate Accident that cause the two paths to merge and to
consciously experience the oneness of all that is and the seen and
unseen worlds. In that merging, the mind was shattered and the
feminine took over the process. The was both a role reversal and
simultaneously a conception that grew into the role reversal. In
essences the feminine became impregnated with the seed that was
within mind to eventually birth and nurture an understanding. In the
way a seed must die to germinate within a fertile space to grown
into a plant, so too what was discovered in the journey into
creativity. The seed of understanding about creativity and how we
create that lied within mind had to die to grow into what was
carried within that seed. What occurred was only reflective of the
creative process of which we all are part.
Alternatively said, There are two
types of understanding: mental and experiential. The mental
understanding about creativity and how we create our experiences had
to be embodied and lived. The mental had to become the experience.
This switch occur with the Ultimate Accident were the mental
understanding was embodied in action. Using what he had come to
learn about creativity and how he understood how the universe worked
up to that time, in essence the author created both an initiation
and creation ritual. What he created created the occasion for an
experience of the Ultimate Accident and a journey to the
source/Source. That experience in turn was the quivalent of a
shamanic initiation.
The understanding within mind about creativity was a seed
encapsulated within mind. When the ego was shattered as to how it
thought creativity and creation worked the nurturing feminine
creative energy within the mystical path was allow to take over the
process. It could be said, a second journey into creativity start.
That was, a journey of understanding how to bridge the seen and
unseen worlds of energy. The journey was to bridge what mind is
capable of knowing and understanding with what it cannot understand
but can only be felt through feeling the flow of energy nurturing
any creation. This marriage resulted in an unfoldment of an
understanding and another ten year focus on creativity and energy.
This part of the journey was to synthesized how to communicate the
understanding that was revealed in the Ultimate Accident.
In the end the author found it necessary to recycle his life
experiences within a new light. Those experiences then become the
vehicle for communicating the understanding. All that he had
ever accomplished - the workshops, lectures and consultations on
creativity - and his life experience were to become the vehicle to
both (1) communicate the awareness of how we create our experiences
and the reality of those experiences and (2) how to increase the
probably of the ultimate accident through the use of
creative play.
What is most interesting to note about the journey into creativity
is the
metaphoric aspects of the events in our life. If the events were
taken a face value the creative process, the power of intention, the
roles of the masculine and feminine, and the dance between the inner
world and outer world would never have been seen for what they are.
The author continually had to look at what lied behind the events as
they were experienced and at the process which was unfolding.
Creativity is the language of consciousness and it is through
what we create within our mind and in our external world that we can
being to understand what our consciousness is revealing about itself
and who and what it thinks it is..
