Have you thought that it sounds too easy to just think it to make it happen as you wish?Have you thought that it is self-centered and has the potential for misuse – the idea that if you use the latent potential of your mind you can create your own reality?Ancient teachings from many different traditions have been translated and in its most recent reincarnation we have learned from scientists and popular visionaries who created the books and movies “The Secret” and “What the Bleep do we know?” that we have so much more control than we think.In the popular Oprah version we may come away with an understanding that if we just think hard enough, and believe enough, we can have whatever we want.
Ah the simplicity, ah the complexity.As a psychotherapist for a quarter of a century, more than most, I understand the light and dark aspects of us humans.I have come to understand that there are forces deep within us resistant to the forces of change. Like a current of water beneath the surface, it may drive your ship in an unexpected direction.The surface water runs one way; the deeper waters may direct the rudder the other way.Unless the deeper forces within your personality are addressed and resolved you may be creating a disappointing reality.Unconscious forces at work can undo all your conscious thought creations.When you are immersed in the “flow” all of you is going in the direction that is flowering, expansive and enlightening.
Through talking (talk therapy) and the deeper explorations of Reiki Fusion, both surface and deeper forces can be gently identified and gracefully released.What is needed is your intention to clear the way for what is for your highest good.Notice:I didn’t say that you can have whatever your conscious mind thinks it wants.There is an aspect of what could be called your higher self that is “knowing”.Yes, you do have access to the wisdom that will set your ship right – from the higher perspective.
And on a related note:what is control?If you think hard enough can you “control” forces that were otherwise thought to be beyond your control?I have found that in some aspects the harder one tries, the more elusive is the goal.How about you?On the other hand, when I “surrender” the ego and “allow” what is best for me to unfold, I discover things falling into place.It still takes mental discipline to pull the plug on negative or catastrophic thoughts; it takes mental discipline to create the conditions of allowing the best to unfold.That’s when the “Co-Creation” has a chance to unfold.The natural life-force in a seed allows a miraculous unfolding.We have that same life force within us, and each of us has a unique potential.When this potential is tapped, it is pure joy.
I wish you joy.
You are purity of space; You are Grace, open and expansive, outside of the field
