As was stated in the discussion, “A
Culmination in Thinking and Understanding,” he decided to see if
he could create a critical mass of enlightened individuals and
actually create the
Critical Mass of Enlightenment Vision he created several months
earlier.
To do this experiment, he was faced with the obvious first question.
That first question was, “Exactly what is enlightenment?” He could
real about it in books and he cold meet people who were supposedly
enlightened, but exactly what was it and how would you combine such
a group of individuals into a group he had no clue. At that time the
author had no information to such questions. All he had was what he
learned in exploring creativity up to that point in time and the
vision which he sketched out providing a rough plan. This was truly
a creativity endeavor. He knew of no one who tried to create such a
thing in the past and he didn’t even know exactly what he was trying
to create. But he knew he understood the physics of a critical mass
and he knew he understood the physics of a quantum jump. So, it is
possible to create a quantum jump in consciousness? Only one way to
find out - do an experiment and see. Besides nothing much else was
really challenging him in life.
There is old saying which states, “Set a clear intention and chose
to act on that intention and the Universe rushes to meet you.” The
author found that to be very true. But what he also experienced
first hand was how unprepared our mind is for truly creative
endeavors. Although the Universe does rush to help us fulfill our
intention, events will not proceed as we think they should or think
the will proceed.
The answer for this is quite simply. Our mind only knows the past
and what it has experienced. It cannot lead us into a truly creative
endeavor. It does not know how to proceed. It is entering the
unknown. To follow the mind will only cause you to get lost and
recreate the past in a new way. Although the author did not realize
it at the time, the question on the table was, “How does one learn
to navigate in the unknown when mind cannot lead?” That is one of
the questions the author needed to answer. But first, he needed to
understand that the question existed. At this point in time he was
of the opinion his mind was more than adequately prepared to lead on
this journey. Whether he realized it or not, one of the first things
that needed to happen was to destroy his mind as he knew and
understood it.
Two week later the universe responded with an answer as to how to
proceed to create this critical mass of enlightenment. He was on a
trip to Virginia Beach as four day weekend get-a-way to do some
planing for the Medical Foundation for which was asked to be the
Executive Director. While at Virginia Beach, several things
happened. That first of which, on the first night, was that the
author received an invitation much like a second
calling. At the time it didn’t seem like another calling but
rather it was an offer. There was a voice that clearly asked a
question but it was more in the form of an awareness than a voice.
The author responded that he would accept the offer under the right
conditions. What the right conditions were the author had no idea as
to what they were. But he knew that he would know when the time
came.
What was not understood at the time but the offer was made to him
was in essence a key and it was unique to the author’s path. It
essence the Universe took him up on the offer to create a critical
mass of enlightenment. There were things he had to learn and
experience about enlightenment before he could create such
experiment. In hindsight it is clear there where certain conditions
which need to be create. These conditions were key to create the
space to make the
Ultimate Accident a real possibility and if not a certainty. The
Ultimate Accident would then give an experience of the source/Source
of our creative power and ability and to access the understanding to
create such a critical mass of enlightenment experiment. The
Ultimate Accident secured the freedom of his own creative spirit to
create such an experiment.
Although unaware of it at the time, in essence the author had to
create a critical mass for enlightenment in his own life before
he could create the experiment. That is, the author had to create
the critical set of conditions that would allow for the
understanding to create a critical mass of enlightenment to be given
to him. Then, if he chose, he could act on that understanding. It
needs to be recognized that just because someone has an
understanding does not mean anything will happen with that
understanding unless they choose to act on that understanding to
make something happen. And, it needs to be noted, how they choose to
act, makes a big difference in what they create.
On this point three things need to be said. One is that a
clearly held intention will pull from the unseen realm the types
and kinds of experiences one needs to have to manifest that
intention. In the way a root pulls from the underground what is
needed for a plant to grow above ground, a clear intention held in
mind will pull from the unseen world what is needed. There is no way
mind can anticipate what is needed and what needs to be done. The
process itself is beyond mind. That is why so much about creativity
seemed to be mystical or magical. But there is nothing mystical or
magical in the
creative process. Rather it is just that elements of the process
lie beyond what mind is and is capable of understanding. The reason
for this is explained in the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity
material but in essence it is do to the fact that we are a
creative living process in the process of unfolding and mind is
a part of that process. So mind can never stand outside itself and
see the whole process. But it can infer the process from
observation.
As note needs to be made here. Mind and the awareness that observes
the mind are two different phenomena. Mind is a collection of past
experiences and what it believes about who and what the awareness
is. The awareness of mind stands apart from mind. Awareness of one’s
existence is beyond mind and not affected by mind and what it thinks
and believes. The awareness of mind is best described and explained
as a
detached witness as to what mind experiences.
The second things is that author had to become enlightened to create
a critical mass of enlightenment. But his enlightenment was not
about enlightenment as seen or discussed in the spiritual and/or
religious context. His enlightenment was about the creative process
of Creation and who we create our experiences and the reality of
those experiences. There are similarities in the enlightenment
sought in spiritual and/or religious traditions but there are also
significant difference. His enlightenment was about the creative
process in which we all participate.
The third thing is that what the author needed to experience was
unique to who and what he thought he was. That is, because of the
experiences in his life, he had a particular way of thinking and
believing as to how Creation worked. The key underpinning of those
beliefs had to be destroyed so that he could see beyond his own
mind. What he had to do will not be what another has to do. What
needs to be done to get beyond mind is unique to each individual
simply because each mind is unique. Each individual holds their own
key. Each must do the necessary work to get that key and then choose
to use. What the universe essentials said in its offer was, “I will
give you the key to what you seek, are you willing to do what is
necessary to get the key and learn how to use it?”
In addition to receiving the invitation, three other note worthy
things occurred on this trip. One is that the author received his
first every body massage. In that massage, body memories surfaced
and there was an awareness to construct a meta-theater to act out an
image which surfaced during the massage.
The second was that in acting out that meta-theater cause one of the
individuals who participated to have a spontaneous past life memory
release that completely startled them. That memory release created
the space for another to occur in individual the next day. The next
day the author asked a simple question that caused the individual to
literally get sick, turn color and have to sit down. What they
experienced was so physical that a physician near by come up and
asked what was wrong because of the sudden change in their physical
condition. Yet it all was a memory release.
The third things was that the author became very aware that he could
sense and feel energy beyond what he was consciously aware. He has
never liked traffic and had always look to ways to avoid it. In
returning from Virginia Beach the vehicle in which he was riding got
stuck in a traffic jam. Although he was not driving and not really
paying attention to the trip for he was actively talking to another
passenger, he got visibly and noticeable annoy as soon as they
entered the traffic. His whole personality seemed to change until he
looked and saw the traffic. It was as though he was picking up all
the annoyance of those who were stuck. His total personality changed
until he realized what was happening. He then understood something
that had puzzled him about traffic all his life. He always thought
he was annoyed by having to drive in traffic. But he wasn’t driving.
Yet he became aware of the restriction in the flow of energy and the
annoyance it brought to people. Some would say it was simply his
annoyance at the traffic. But that wasn’t the case. He was too
engaged a conversation he didn’t want to end. His focus and desire
was to continue the conversation as long as possible and the traffic
was only helping to continue it.
In choosing to attempt to create a Critical Mass of Enlightenment
Experiment, what the author had slowly come to realize over time
that is essential to any creative endeavor is that the individual
needs to love themselves and love and live the vision they carry if
they want to manifest it. The Universe will response and provide the
opportunity to manifest that vision if the individual is willing to
do what is necessary. What is necessary is not something mind can
understand or fully comprehend. They will have to trust, surrender
and follow the lead of the Universe and their own intuitive guidance
as to how to respond to what they Universe provides. The individual
has to realize their path is unique and there one cannot wait or
depend on anyone. They have to follow the vision they have trust the
universe to provide the help, assistance, resources and way to do
so. One just need to honor their vision.
Only in hindsight did the author realize that what the Universe was
providing was the understanding as to how to create the critical
mass of enlightened individuals. But before he create it, he had to
become it and experience it. But before he could experience the
Ultimate Accident, there was more to do to prepare the space for
it to occur. The important point to note here is that the author had
to choose to act to create his vision and in choosing to act, the
Universe responded but not in a way his mind could understand.
