Thoughts Create Reality

Leave a reply

The Avatar class I am taking this weekend has a book, from which I quote, “The miracle is not that consciousness evolved out of the universe; the miracle is that the universe evolved out of consciousness.”

Their belief seems to be that thought created the universe.  Law of Attraction type stuff.  First there was god.  God had a thought, and that thought became the universe.  Etcetera. 

In a similar way, each of our thoughts creates (see “Science of Mind,”  Ernest Holmes). 

I wonder, have all thoughts been thought?  Perhaps.  Though I feel otherwise.  Can all thoughts be thought? 

Again, I would venture there will always be new and infinite thoughts that could be thought…

Do we when we have compassion for another see our thoughts within them?  Perhaps mirrors of our thoughts at least in which we see reflections of what we believe are our thoughts. 

I am struggling with the universality of connection to all (the contra wise being separation, which “Course in Miracles” and other modalities tell us is the illusion).

Still, I recall a time of great loss in my life many years ago when I was grieving horribly.  It became clear to me that while I could not truly comprehend the pain of another, for no two losses are exactly alike with every loss itself being unique,  I could understand that the pain of each creature suffering a loss is unique and great.  Sometimes incomprehensibly so.  Even, and perhaps especially to the sufferer.

So, I could have compassion for the pain of the sufferer, while realizing that I cannot realize the actual specific pain.  Even where our losses were very similar.

I noticed even then, during some of my deepest suffering, that when someone asked me for something, it brought me out of my deep deep funk, if only briefly for an instant, while I responded to their direct (non related to my loss) inquiry. 

While people felt uncomfortable to ask things of me, I was glad for the space, however brief, it allowed me to breath while I responded.

So, when I chose a different thought, I experienced a different feeling.  Even then.  And, I was glad for it.

Peace and Gladitude,

Everyting happens in the now

I have become much more present this last year or so.  And, the more modalities I study, the more I hear about being present.  Omega Vector,  web site:  http://omegavector.org/ , talks about being present.  Science of Mind, web site:  http://newvisionaz.org/ , talks about being present.  

 Harry Palmer, in “Living Deliberately” states  “the past influences you as long as you let it… the past and future do not exist unless I deliberately… decide to create a memory or image of them in the present.  The PAST is not the source of the present; the PRESENT is the source of the future!”  Harry’s work is the foundation of Avatar.  More info is avail at:  http://www.integral-transformation.com . 

Omega Vector is a non profit Phoenix based group that I have heard was spun off from EST.  EST also spun off Landmark Forum, a Phoenix based for profit group.  This concept of presence as portrayed by all of these, and many more modes is very similar in nature, and yet are all shaded slightly differently. 

Harry’s words resonate in my mind as a way of saying, only in the present does the past exist.  So, when we are stuck in our stories, stories of what has happened in the past, we are stuck in the present.  The story exists in the present.  The past exists only in the present.   This past Sunday, Dr. Medrano of New Vision Center was saying how everyone we have ever known, everything that has come before us, exists in us.  Well yes it does, to the extent we allow it to.  We have choice.  We can give life to whatever story we choose, and by our choosing, we can create the future… IN THE PRESENT.

Everything happens in the present, including the past and the future.

Peace and presence be with you,

Feeling Better

Have you ever found yourself wishing you felt better physically?  Well, making the conscious choice to be healthier is a great step on the path to good health.

When we have our health, we have everything in life.  And, as we exhaust our health, so is our life exhausted also.  It is my belief we create our own reality.  It follows from this belief that it is vital we consciously know health at our core in order to propagate it throughout our being. 

Sometimes we might run into people or engage in behaviors ourselves where, stuck in our story and drama, we share how bad we feel.  Of course, we are always right.  If we say or think we feel bad, we will feel bad or worse, even as we may experience some temporary relief via the sympathy our efforts elicit.  

At a deeper level however, this kind of thought pattern leaves us and the universe looking for ways to miscreate more poor health for us.  Sympathy after all is just another way people feel bad for us.  You see where this leads, yeah?

Better if we choose to concentrate on where we feel well. 

We always feel well on some level.  Paraphrasing Reverend Michael Beckwith’s shapeshifting paradigm, we need to know of a place where we are healthy.   The process is then to creatively shift this healthy energy into areas where we wish to feel increased vitality.

This is of course one method.  Another is to keep our thinking positive when it comes to health.  For instance, if one is trying to lose weight or quit smoking, every time our eager friends ask us about our diet or how long it has been since our last cigarette, we start creating thoughts about eating or another smoke. 

Better to concentrate instead on health and healthy choices.  So if asked about how our diet or the quitting of habits, try thinking and responding like this:    I decided for the last two weeks to live a healthier life, and have been doing much better at it, thank you for inquiring. 

It is much easier to choose among healthier items on a menu or to engage in the healthier of activities options than to quit a habit.  For instance, one may easily choose between the healthier of a 3/4 lb cheese burger or a fresh garden salad.    We do all things in the present.  Thus, we make all choices in the present.   To choose to eat 2000 calories a day is much tougher to keep track of than to choose to engage in healthy activities and dietary habits on a case by case basis, in the present.  It is particularly difficult to keep to 2000 calories when we keep counting the calories.  We basically obsess on food on an average diet.  How much did I eat?  What can I eat?  When am I going to eat?  Eat… eat… eat….  Usually, its all about food. 

How to be moderate about something we obsess over?  Make healthy choices on a case by case basis in the moment.   

Any choice is much more easily made, in a healthy way in the moment.

Peace and healthy choices,

The light at the end of the tunnel is a train, and that’s fabulous!

Have you ever felt like you are in a tunnel and are faced by a dark dark path, with a glimmer of light, perhaps way down at the end?  And, have you been in fear that the light is a train?

Well, here is the thing:  maybe it is a train, or maybe it is an exit, or maybe it’s something else.  Still, if it is a train, ever stop to realize; hey, that train got in here; and, it’s probably going to get out?

Usually, there is plenty of room for one person, and one train, no matter how scary, to coexist in the same tunnel.  Just the fact that it could be a train, is actually a good sign there are at least two ways out of the tunnel.  Being realistic, you probably need to lay down or step to the side to let the train go by as it gets closer.  Then you have to follow it or head in the direction it came from to get out.  You even have a small chance of getting the train to stop, if you happen to have a mirror, or a flash light or cigarette lighter, etc.  Then you get a ride and maybe a free cup of coffee and meet some new friends as well.  Picture in the paper… you get the idea.

The thing is, by being realistic, while being postive, you can turn what many people consider an analogy of doom (a train is the light at the end of the tunnel) into what it is:  several ways out.

It’s all about choices and perspective.  It’s always all about choices and perspective.

Peace and love on the tracks,

Missing Pivot to Positive Anticipation and Gratitude

1 Reply

Yes, we can choose subconsious thoughts.  Life is about choices. To have a happier, more fulfilling life, we must choose happier, more fulfilling thoughts.  Both consciously and unconsciously.  This is consistent with Laws of Attraction (LOA) and prayer, which is a form of LOA. 

While it seems difficult or counter intuitive to choose unconscious thoughts, really there is a way.

For instance, have you ever found yourself missing someone or something?  Consciously, or unconsciously?

Missing something NEVER feels good.  Yet we call our children, or our parents, or our loved ones, and say, “I miss you!”  Saying this DOES NOT make us feel better.  We are hoping to hear them say, “I miss you too.”  This is a codependent needy emptiness creating form of loneliness.   It creates on the conscious and unconscious level all sort of mischief for us.

To just think of something else, a happier thought, also would not be fully effective.  Why?  Because that moves the conscious down the subconscious, and the subconscious down to the deep subconscious…

So, what to do? 

Well, address the missing directly.  Use contrast to create a better thought, consciously.  This will then filter down to positive subconscious thoughts and creatings.

What do we do then when we miss something or someone? 

Well there may be other ways, though, for me, what works is one of two things.  Be grateful, for what we have or look forward to seeing and/or experiencing again.

Gratitude is always a good feeling.  It can be effective for loved ones past, or with the passing of age, for things we have done in the past.  Gratitude feels fabulous.

Looking forward to doing, seeing, having or experiencing something again is harmonious with positive creating, consistent with LOA, feels great and works!

Sublime peace and love,
