Beautiful quote.

Hi I was just wondering if anybody had any ideas on this. I get so confused at times about everything you here about manifesting and such like, I know that our thoughts create our experiances and our reality but often I get confused and worried about if I have any negative thoughts has this just un done all the positive ones? Do i need to start again? have i just somewhere created a bad experiance for myself?
And if other people come in to your life and their behaviour is upsetting you, do you 'be the bigger person' and let it go as you have created this or do you react to it? I do get rather confused!!!!

Thank you lots of love and light to all x

Hi Lorrs,

As far as I understand we see a reflection on the outside as a manifestation of what is going on in the inside.

There is a good reason for this to help with our spiritual growth. The reason is so we can see where we are getting stuck (i.e. attached) or where the issues are that we need to personally work on and then resolve them. So if you worry then you will keep creating situations that cause you to worry until the time that you stop worrying. If you see what I mean? If you are being negative then you will attract negative things to you so that you can see you are being negative.

I think we always start again if we are being present. If you focus in the here and now then you can let go of all the things you feel like you messed up and look at them from a clear point of view.

If some one upsets me I know that they are just activating one of my blockages. I thank them for that internally and look at where I am stuck. I make sure that I don't build up any resentment for that person (very important!). Sometimes I say something in return that they don't like, which upsets them. I don't do it on purpose. I am just honest about how I feel. People don't always like that. I think that the universe decides sometimes that they need a taste of their own medicine.

It's not easy when you are new to looking at things that way. I hope that I make sense (I don't always find it that easy to express myself).

The most important think I can say is - DON'T BE HARD ON YOURSELF!!! When you go astray it's OK, just see what you can learn.

Hi Lorrs,

Thanks for your question on creating reality. I suspect many people are interested in this one especially considering all the material out there talking of manifestation.

In my truth, it is not just our thoughts that create our reality; it would be more accurate to say our entire consciousness creates our reality - the sum total of what we are being and expressing through ALL our bodily vehicles of expression.

And herein lies the problem when we try to manifest a particular reality; all too often the ego or small "I" is trying to do it. In other words we are trying to make choices based on our conditioned behaviours, our hopes and desires or alternatively as a result of our worries and fears. For example, we feel insecure so we try to manifest a better paid job; we're uncomfortable being alone so we try to manifest a partner; we're not happy with our house so we effort to get a better one.

This are all hopes, wishes and desires of the ego, the personality - the small "I". They are based on controlling thought forms prevalent in our society and conditoned behaviours - fixed neural pathways in the brain.

However this is only a fraction of our consciousness. Our unique expression of divinity is the soul - we came here to connect with our soul and to allow it complete freedom of expression so that it may glorify our true beingness.

Authentic creation happens spontaneously in the moment flowing downwards as energy from our higher self - the highest aspect of the soul closest to the source. When we are truly aligned with this, our creative action happens as one with the natural flow of the Universe - the whole Universe is creating in harmony with us. This is called "Right Action". It feels like we are completely 'in the groove' so to speak - we align to a natural rhythm in life which is blissful and magical to behold.

What gets in the way of this free flow are all our conditioned behaviours. So as the soul flows through the bodymind, the energy is distorted, fragmented and dimmed. Since our reality is created from what we are being within, this inner turmoil is reflected through our outer lives. When we realise this, sometimes people try to create an inner focus by holding a particular vision or intention. This is what work like "The Secret" would have us do. This may work for a while, but it is contradicting the natural flow of the Universe and our destined unfolding within it. Ultimately this illusionary vision will break down.

The soul is awesomely okay with all circumstances. It has no particular needs, wants or desires. It has no fear of a particular circumstance or event. Its purpose is to simply unfold its unique way of being. Our challenge is to align with this sense of centredness, completeness and immortality. The destiny of the soul is to take us into all those circumstances where we do not have this inner peace. In other words, just as Lightkeeper says above, we create on the outside circumstances that reflect our inner state of consciousness. Every single circumstance and moment of our lives presents this continually updating mirror saying "this is what you are now being, does that serve you?" In other words, are you being guided by the soul or the personality? from a sense of completeness or a sense of lack?

If what you are being feels right, you feel aligned and it seems totally authentic, then keep on doing that AT WHATEVER APPARENT PERSONAL COST (even your death!). If on the other hand, you create circumstances that make you feel tight and uncomfortable inside, ask yourself "to what am I attached? What particular outcome or experience do I think I need or are afraid of from this circumstance?"

If we keep watching all our motivations for action from the place of the Observer of ourselves, then over time we will begin to realise our attachments within the drama of life. The we can begin to let them go by expressing our higher truth. In which case the distorted behaviour patterns that have arisen from our attachments will dissolve and we'll become ever more comfortable in our own skin. We'll align with the authenticity of our soul and we'll create this greater harmony within our outer lives.

The important thing to note is that we do not have to effort to create the lives that best serve us. Our destined reality unfolds around us a direct consequence of us connecting with and expressing our highest truth - our soul.

Here at Openhand, we were divinely guided to develop a process which we call "Openhand Approach" designed to help us unfold into this harmonious way of being. You can read about it here...Openhand Approach
We teach it on our course Way of the Heart.

Love and best wishes to you.
