Stretch the imagination

To see things as they are is not what you think. You might view science fiction stories as a point of reference for what is becoming possible. You might begin to sense layers of reality exist beyond what mind thinks or believes. Think outside-the-box. Notice what are you taught is possible. Notice who controls the holodeck of existence and who is invisible. Be open to accepting anti- gravity. Could you be a wizard in disguise? Stretch the imagination.

1) Imagine you awaken and the world is very different from what your 'normal' reality. Do you feel like Gregor Samsa who awakens to find himself a cockroach in The Metamorphosis? What stands out about your apparent new existence? What is obsolete? What is unchanged?

2) Envision this world as your canvas.  Notice what you choose to see around you. What do you erase or paint over? What do you sketch in? Where do you add colour and texture? What is the future of Humanity? Do "you" fit in at all?

3) Reflect on how you see yourself 100 and 1000 years from now. Imagine your form or state. How are you travelling? What does your existence feel like? Which innate capacities do you discover and accept? What role organ and cell regeneration play? How do cell codes for spontaneous human healing factor in to an evolving, New Human Being? Be that.  How does it feel?

4) What is existence like from the moment you let go of all self-defeating thoughts, doubt, negativity and delete programming about aging, sickness and death? What do agelessness and fearlessness feel like? How do you function as an immortal in a physical body? Experience evolves from thoughts.  If you do not allow self to imagine anything different than your programming, you do not stretch or grow. 

Train your attention

Mindfulness is training your attention to be awake and aware of what goes on inside and outside yourself.  It is a sharpening of the senses.  Notice what you are creating and adding to your experiences.  Notice also what ideas you cling to and also those attachments you are willing to let go. Notice the feelings that arise and dissipate as you decide nothing matters.

What do you sense about your own observation and evolving behaviour in this moment? How does your life perspective (the nature of seeing) shift as you only speak to people who are truly present? What do you see in common with people you encounter and those you don't?

"If you first fortify yourself with the true knowledge of the Universal Self, and then live in the midst of wealth and worldliness, surely they will in no way affect you." -Ramakrishna

Direct knowing is here

You dare to see for yourself what the world inspires you to explore.  You do not have to embrace one possibility at the exclusion of another.  No experience invalidates another.  None is lesser or greater. They are all equal.  Only the inner judge invites you to create hierarchies or tune into a disharmonious frequency.  This blocks direct knowing.  The energy radiating through your form simply invites you to see and experience life in different ways.  How you respond is up to you.  

The truth and the way it manifests is completely unique for each person.   The truth is a pointer to seeing itself.  Seeing does not see illusion.  As you simply see experience, you are in a state of natural balance, harmony, equality. It is a state of fearlessness that is ever-present and accessible when you do not look away.  Look more deeply into experience to see which aspects of self do not change in time and which parts of you are in no way limited or obscured by experience.  Everything invites you to discover the reality of love. This arises as you see clearly, without conditions, through the divine lens of equality. If you are tempted to see through mental filters, shift focus.  Look again.

To be free of all forms of understanding is the end of inner doubt, the end of the need to understand.  Everything you discover about yourself is an ally or a doorway into a true aspect of inner being.  Notice what doubt invites you to do.  Doubt is an opportunity to face the most vulnerable parts of yourself.  The flip side of doubt is the innocence within that reaches out to be loved and accepted.  Do not fear losing what you give, or losing what you let in or being rejected.  Love without question.  Being true to yourself is attuning to that which you cannot explain and letting go of all resistance.

"The final freedom is freedom from the need for certainty." - Matt Kahn

Allow unfiltered light to shine

To view yourself as a person with a perceived identity, is to create reality using physical senses and psychological views of events. Yet, interpretation of reality is not actually reality.  You dream the dream of being human, focus on physical form until it loses its importance.  To recognize all you think is illusion allows mental filters to drop away.  To be present in this moment is to be aware of the higher self as it is and align with it.

Being aware is like allowing consciousness to recognize itself.  As you are increasingly transparent in every sense, you feel lighter and experience an incredible lightness of being.  Intrinsic light of being has different shades of brightness and vibrations. This is not something to grasp but is allowed or resisted. The multidimensional being that is you exhibits traits not discernable to the physical body. What you do not see still exists.

Notice the ebbs and flows of energy that emerge from and return to the source of everything. Unfiltered truth shines clearly through the eyes of soul. One perspective is that you incarnate to constuct and dismantle your own self-deceptions. You are the only witness to your own illusions. You are also the only judge and jury. To deepen inner-sight removes all barriers to knowing that unconditional love is what I am.

"Eyes are not forms, they are transparent, and what one really sees is the light of the soul in them." - Walter Russell

Raise your awareness

Every moment offers infinite opportunities for knowing to arise in crystal clarity.  What do you feel as you begin to recognize order exists in chaos? What resonates within as you intuit every living thing is an extention of source energy that is you? 

You exist to experience different cycles, lessons and lifetimes as part of the process of raising self-awareness.  Every choice you make and do not make invites the mind torecall God (or how you relate to this) gave you all that is.  Imagine the resonance as you intuit you are this source energy or cosmic ocean, that gives everything to and through all.  How does it feel to be everything and everywhere now?  Stillness speaks.

Consider the soul is never content with less than total recall. It takes form in the physical body to engage in Earthly experiences and intuitively senses the truth it cannot name.  The ego-mind comes to call it love, fulfillment, satisfaction and other concepts it comes to avidly pursue.  Ultimately, nothing and nowhere are where is at and the revelation that the formless truth is everywhere. Everything is a stepping stone to unity. 

 "So powerful isthe light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth." -Baha'ullah
