As we explore the depth and
breadth of our
creative power and creative ability, we will come to find we are
part of a larger creative process. In fact, we are part of several
larger processes. An example of being part of a larger creative
process is that of our
mind. Our mind is the product of the experiences we have. It is
a
creative living process continually recreating itself.
Our
creative life energy carries us to certain types and kinds of
physical experiences. As a minimum the experiences of obtaining food
and water in order to live.
Mind developed as a result of those experiences. Unless we being
to understand the process that controls the development of the mind,
we will not being to understand how we are not creatively captive to
the mind we have. We can
step out of mind
and have a different type and kind of experience not previously had.
This in fact, is the whole basis of a
not doing practice. It is to educate mind that it is not limited
by, and to, what it has experienced but is fully capable of
transforming itself by the experiences it chooses to have.
As we work to access the depth and breadth of our creativity we will
find there is what can be best described as an
intention for our life and a flow of energy that is governing
our life. It is this flow of energy that supplies our creative needs
and can be perceived as a
creative spirit. We describe it as an intention for there is a
direct to the flow and hence our life. That direction of flow can be
said to be the reason for our existence. Similarly, it is called a
flow because it carry us in a particular direction in life much the
way wind currents would carry a balloon across the sky or the river
current would carry one to the sea. However, our life is
superimposed on an existing Creation. In addition to the intention
for our life, our life is interconnected with Creation. In this
regard, there are things we are intended to do for Creation or
within Creation. There are roles that we will play
Although Creation is the composite of a variety of creative
processes, our body can be seen as a
bridge point where three come together. The three which
specifically come together in our body is the three flows of energy
resulting from the
desires of Physical Creation, the desires of the
human collective and the desires of our
creative spirit. In this regard, particular body is chosen for
the particular “mission” in life we undertake. It is the perfect
vehicle to accomplish what we set out to do in
Physical Creation and to meet the desires of Physical Creation.
This includes any particular desires the human collective had on
influencing the
intention for our life.
The question is which one of theses, if not some other, has the
greatest impact on our individual lives. Although there are many
deep undercurrents governing the unfoldment of Creation, these
deeper undercurrents are not necessarily the larger creative process
to which we refer. The larger process to which is referred are
usually one of these three that governs our individual lives if not
all of these.
For starters, the first larger creative process of which we are a
part is not some grand Creation Plan where our lives are
predestined. Rather, it is a process that we ourselves created
and/or in which we agreed to participate at some level of our being
within the existing Physical Creation. The file entitled “Some
Models For Understanding How We Harness Our Creative Spirit”
describes one way to view this larger process that governs our life.
This process is the one found in the unfolding of the
intention for our life. It is unique to us. The intention for
our life, although unique to us is itself part of a larger creative
process. It is one in which we all participate. It is to have a
physical experience as a human in this time period of history.
Having a
physical body as a human being holds us bound to the larger
process for the duration or life of our body.
The second process encompasses the role and/or roles in which we
agree to play in the
larger unfolding currents of Creation. The second larger
creative process of which we are a part although larger than our
life and expands well beyond our life is an individual process
unique to our life. This larger individual creative process of which
I am a part is not the same one in which you are a part. Although
the process of which you are a part arises form the same one of
which I am a part, the
intention for our life causes us to have a unique experience of
that composite of the two. Although these larger processes
influencing our lives are coordinated and integrated where
appropriate and when necessary, they are each independent of each
other. As such, what I need to understand about how I create my
reality will be conceptually the same as what you need to know. But,
practically, within the details, what I need to understand to do I
need to do will be different than you. This may be difficult to
understand but it is nevertheless true.
We usually play a variety of roles in life and they can be all part
of the same process or each part of a different process. Our
experiences of Creation are experiences of a
creation within Creations. Although much goes on around in
and/or of which we are aware as occurring, only two really impact
our lives. They are the current which unfolds our life and the
current or currents in which we interact to unfold our life to gain
the experiences we incarnated to have. This second process is
experienced as the role we play or the role we play in Creation
Itself. It may be determined by desires of Physical Creation or the
desires of the collective or some combination of both. Then at other
times, we may have a role whose origins lie outside both Physical
Creation and the desires of the collective.
It needs to be understood there are things that individuals
incarnate to change and/or to bring new experiences for humanity.
There is nothing wrong in being human or with the
human experience. We are not here to learn lessons as such,
although that may be one result of what we experience. Being human
is an experience to be had and savored as any other experience. Our
problem is the powerful attachments for or against any aspect of the
human physical experience and/or our lives. There are only two
things we really need to learn to do as a human being. One is to not
take our lives so personally for we are part of a larger experience
in which we agreed to participate and play a role. The other is to
learn
true freedom to become like the wind - coming with nothing and
leaving with nothing - and be totally present with what is, as it
is. That is, to learn to have no judgments or attachments yet
create what we desire with
the passion of a drowning person has for air.
This concept of playing roles resulting from a
undercurrent of Creation may be initially hard to understand
and/or accept. Most of us think our lives are separate from the
Creation we experience. We do not consider that Creation may need us
to play a role. Nevertheless, it is true from a
creativity perspective.
That is, playing a role for Creation in some way, is something that
is true or its equivalent is true relative to accessing our
creative power and creative ability. That is, we may not
necessary consciously experience and/or be aware of these processes
in our lives. Nevertheless they greatly affect our creative power
and creativity ability. There are things we do in life that we think
we are doing them when in reality the currents which give rise to
our life and/or the experiences we have are causing them to happen.
This is a very important point. If we deny this fact, we will be
limiting the creative power and creative ability we can access.
The Creation we experience is much like a weave of material. One
thread, the flow of our life, crosses over many other threads. Those
crossover points provided us with certain types and kinds of
experiences. As when have these experience we play a role for the
thread or flow of energy over which we cross. It is the current of
our life and the current of the crossover point which determines how
much and the type and kind of creative power we can access in the
moment. There are times where we can be more creatively powerful
than at other times. In being open to feeling, we can feel these
moments for we can feel the flow of energy available to us in that
moment.
If we wish we can look at materials with solid colors or with many
different colors. The
intention for our life is a cross thread of a unique color. It
crosses many other threads. Cross over threads of the same color can
be seen as accessing the same
undercurrent for all the experiences that result from each
crossover point. Crossover threads of a different color represent
accessing different undercurrents. Here, each color represents a
different undercurrent.
Some of us have lives of “one color.” That is, the
intention for our life accesses and follows essentially one
deep undercurrent all our life. It may be an undercurrent
created by the human collective were we play a particular role all
our life within a given society. Or, we play a give role for
something Physical Creation desire to accomplish. For example, we
may carry a specific gene mutation that allows us to experience
something not otherwise experienced as a human being.
Others have “multicolored” lives. Here the
intention for our life crosses many
undercurrents during our life. For example, it may be that an
individual plays a variety of different role in their society. Then,
suddenly, they seem to step out of their society and have a life
completely contrary to their society. When viewed by the individual
or by their society, it may seem they have gone crazy. However, when
viewed from the perspective of the intention for their life, it
makes perfect sense and is fully in alignment with what they
incarnated to do.
There is no right or wrong in how our lives unfold. One life is not
better than another. A monochromatic life is no better or worse than
a multicolored life. The only judgment that can really be made
about how a life is lived is whether or not the individual is able
to achieve
what they incarnated to do and/or
a life worth living. But, here again, we have a
free will.
If the individual become consciously aware of the
intention for their life and why they have that intention, they
do have the freedom to change it. If they change it in wisdom in a
way that better serves who and what they find themselves to be,
there is no judgment on changing the intention for their life. Even
if what they choose does not serve them as well, if they choose
consciously because they choose something they desire to experience,
there is no judgment on what they choose. There may be
consequences, but no judgments.
There is one profound “spin off” on the understanding that we are
part of
deeper undercurrents that is seldom recognized but has great
impact on our life. It is that
success in life is not always our success. That is, what we
think we are responsible for accomplishing in our life may not be as
much our accomplishment as much as it is the unfolding of a flow of
energy into which we accessed. This aspect of the deep undercurrent
is discussed in the topic “Success
in life is not always our success”
