We can look at journey into
creative play in many different ways. These are a few of the ways it
can be experienced:
-
It is as a journey of healing.
-
It is as a journey of remembering.
-
It can be seen and experienced as the path to becoming enlightened
as to who we are and the way we have created our experience.
-
It this regard it is the journey of awakening.
-
It can be seen as removing the veil of illusion.
-
It can be seen as claiming our divinity and our birthright as a
creator.
-
It can be seen as the longing of the heart to return home.
-
It is that search for an inner satisfaction that never runs dry
-
It is the journey from separation into back into oneness
-
It is the path of salvation and becoming clean and removing our
sins - or rather the illusion of sin
-
It is making the subconscious conscious
-
It is the rekindling of the flame within the heart
-
It is becoming self determined at all levels of your being
-
It is become free and obtaining ultimate freedom with no
boundaries and no limits
-
It is ultimately is it about a transformation of an individualized
consciousness experiencing Creation from within an
ego to
Consciousness at play with Itself experiencing Creation with a
physical vehicle that happens to be a human body.
As an
ego within a
human body, because so much of our life appears
to be beyond our control, many hold the view there is a God as
something outside oneself, hiding and/or residing somewhere, such as
heaven, that controls Creation. This God is then often seen as
someone to whom we need to get close. In being close to this God, in
whatever form we believe, we see ourselves as getting close to the
power of Creation and in that closeness we expect to experience
protection from Creation and/or to control Creation.
However the problem is this “God,” that is being sought, that
creative power/Creative Power that gives rise to Creation, is within
our own being. It is flowing and bursting forth and expressing
itself in who and what we are. The “God” that is sought cannot be
shown to us or found by us for It is already within our being. It
lies dormant like a seed waiting for conditions to be come correct
to burst forth in all its glory manifesting itself in the world. It
is something that we already have. We just need to awaken it and
allow it to burst forth. When it bursts forth is it something to be
experience in the moment and freely let go and experience like the
wind - completely free and unattached, unmasked and unexpected to be
fully savored and experienced in the moment. It is not something to
be controlled.
What needs to be understood is that at this God that resides within
our being is still growing. Or, maybe better said, still awakening.
It has not reached it fullness. It still resides as a potential and
a possibility to be experienced in this life. It is not there yet.
In the same way a child only represents the potential of an adult,
the consciousness residing within our body is similarly still a
child. The body is only the vehicle it is using to awaken to its
destiny. However, we must allow the potentiality to manifest and we
must choose it to awaken.
It lies dormant like a seed and we have to choose to create the
conditions for its unfoldment and growth. We have to help it to
grow. We must plant it in a fertile soil, water it, give it the
necessary sunlight and any supplemental nutrients and keep the
temperature warm and appropriate for its growth.
As a seed, the unfoldment will look nothing like the tree it
produces. It also must be realized is that the seed that unfolds
within us is very unique and we cannot look at another and expect to
see what our unfoldment will look like. How we unfold into our
divinity will be unique to us. No one else in this entire universe
will unfold quite like us. We are an independent reality and a
unique creation.
When we look at another when our seed lies dormant, we will not
truly see the divinity in another for our eyes will not have become
acclimated to seeing divinity. We cannot see through the eyes of a
human to see the divinity in another. What needs to be understood is
that seeing is as much experiencing as it is observing. We can only
see divinity through the eyes of divinity. Then we will be
experiencing life from the viewpoint of being divinity. The seeing
and experiencing are one and the same. As we open ourselves to our
own divinity and our creative power, more and more of the divinity
that surrounds us will become obvious for it will be our experience.
In the same way a gardener can recognize the seed and “see” the
unfolded plant within the seed, one who can view through the eyes of
divinity can see the see that lies dormant within our being. The God
that lies within our being lies dormant and buried within our own
subconscious as a seed lies dormant beneath the soil of the ground.
Our seed is still struggling to break through into the light of day
to grow and manifest. The shell of our
ego that has developed over
our life is hard in the same way the ground is hard. In some cases,
our divinity lies beneath buried rocks and stones and it can’t
figure out why it is having so much difficulty breaking through.
One who sees through the eyes of the divine, such as the
rainmaker,
can see our seed and its struggle to break through the hard ground
of the
ego shell that has become encased around our seed. They can
see the God within our being and what its unfoldment will look like.
The can see how the current environment does or does not nurture the
growth of our seed. Yet, as with an individual acorn and knowing
what the general shape and form of the tree will look like, the
actual tree that manifests cannot be predicted in detail. All of the
conditions that exist as the seed grows will have a great bearing on
exactly what that final tree and it shape looks like.
To view from the eyes of divinity is to see each individual in two
forms. One form is their current form and how they are expressing
and manifesting it in the world. The other is to see the seed that
lies within and its unfoldment as the individual will be and as they
can be within the conditions that currently exist. However, the seed
must be allow to grow and only we can allow that seed to germinate
and burst forth. We will have to be courageous enough to die to the
old form of the seed to allow what is within the seed to come forth.
What is surprising is that when that seed unfolds and the fruits of
that seed are produced, they are the experience of the ultimate
state of play as
Consciousness at a play with itself. The individual
become enlightened and awakened as to who and what they are. They
claim their
birthright as a being of
unlimited creativity and can
fully participate in consciousness as that co-creator of reality as
one of the many individualized consciousness at play. It is here
creation come full circle.
The individualized consciousness grows from an infant and child like
state into adult consciousness claiming its birth right to be
Consciousness at play with Itself. As Consciousness at play, it
becomes a playmate to Consciousness Itself. That is the destiny of
each and every human if they are willing to choose to become it and
allow the seed that lies within their being to germinate and unfold.
The only question that lies on the table is, “What is the
transformation that we as an independent, unique,
individualized
consciousness must undergo to become this Playmate?”
Unfortunately, others may guide, help or assist us but only we can
determine what needs to done to become a Playmate to Consciousness
at Play. It is here we must chose to become the
Phoenix and recreate
ourselves into
our birthright. It is also here we can exercise our
birthright in consciousness and choose to have a gentle
transformation, a gentle Phoenix.
The ultimate goal of the journey into play is to become
consciousness/Consciousness at play with itself/Itself.
It needs to be realized, God is a concept where an all powerful
Creator stands apart from Creation. However, this God is not all
powerful and less that All That Is for both this God and Creation
are needed to make the whole. A God that stands apart from Creation
and is in separation is less than the whole. The entire concept of
God and holding this concept in one’s mind forces us into duality
and separation from the Oneness of All That Is. How this phenomenon
works as discussed in the topic “The observer-observed pair within a context of observation and the
nature of duality” As long as we
believe and experience God outside of ourselves, we cannot live in
wholeness and in oneness. We are a particular view of all that is,
or All That Is if you prefer, uses to experience Creation. As such,
we are ultimately Consciousness that has individualized to play with
Itself and experience Its Creation. We are Consciousness at play
with ourselves The goal of the
journey into play is the journey into
rediscovering who you truly are, that is Consciousness at play with
Itself. The journey is about uncovering exactly how we have created
the experience that we have.
