What we all need is more imagination!

Neville Goddard (1905 -1972) would

have certainly agreed – a dancer and

entertainer turned New Thought writer

who became a popular speaker packing

churches and auditoriums in New York,

Los Angeles and San Francisco in the

mid -1950’s helping others reveal the

creative power of their own imaginations.

 

Neville expanded the traditional New Thought

message of the Law Of Attraction and Mind

Action to focus almost completely on the

power of using our own imagination to create

what we need or desire in our lives;

what he and others at the time called

“Imagining”. Neville suggested creating

the reality you wish to experience in life

fully, down to the smallest detail, in your

imagination as if it was completely true

and had already occurred.

 

Neville Goddard authored many books using only

his first name and was known as simply Neville.

To learn more about Neville I recommend

The Neville Reader a book featuring most

of his writing and the success stories of those

who followed his guidance.  

 

As the Affirmative Thought below suggests  -

it is all truly in the imagination.

 

FULLY IMAGINE 

 

Today, we realize that our dreams

only wait until we can fully imagine

an abundant future where we trust

all will be provided. We understand

we must see an abundant life ahead,

not one of lack or meager provisions.

 

Today we open up our imaginations

and see more not less, plenty not

scarcity, positive, not negative,

all rather than some. Our dreams will

not manifest and appear in a lack

of trust in our futures.

 

Today, we turn away from envisioning

a future built on the meager provisions

of today and instead, prepare a

home of overflowing wonder – where

all is provided – where only plenty

is available. This is the fertile ground

for the seeds of our dreams to grow.

 

Today, we fully believe and trust in God

with our total being, opening our

arms to the universe ready to receive!

 

WITH LOVE, G.

Those who have followed this blog and the unfolding of Finding

God On The Train - The Book realize  I believe that there is a

convergence of science and religious research, thought , and

comprehension towards a validation, or at least an understanding,

of the existence  of a universal consciousness that we as individuals

are connected with through our local consciousness. Whether we

personally choose to call this force God, Source, Universal Mind,

Infinite Intelligence, or Spirit is really only a matter of  personal

semantics. I prefer the term God since it is what works for me, even 

though I understand this is based on a drastically different definition

than the traditional concept of God I was exposed to growing up.  

 

I have have pointed to, and will continue to highlight,  the work of a

number of renown and forward thinking Physicists  is my elaboration

of this concept. As Dr. Abraham H. Maslow offered in his book,

Religions, Values, And Peak Experiences  - "We maybe able to accept

religious questions as a proper part of the jurisdiction of science."

The same must be hoped for from the religious side who has turned 

 away from a scientific basis of establishing  spiritual existence. 

 

As I have noted, it is as if the religious and scientific communities

are approaching the concept of spirituality and the connection with a 

divine force from different sides of the same mountain.  What is of

interest is that many agree that what they may both be looking at,

is a creative universal force that cannot be explained away by negating

the others perspective. 

 

On the scientific side Quantum Theory - based on the subatomic world 

and the understanding of an atomic nucleus composed of neutrons and

and protons that refuse to behave in a predictable way - able to appear

either as a particle or a wave dependent on the expectation of a 

conscious observer. The behavior of these particles,  and the twenty-five

other related  particles that have since been revealed as contributing

building blocks,  actually form and reform at will, defy space and time

constraints, and their location at any point in time can only be

determined as a probability.

 

My mission in the next chapter of the book is to understand how our

local mind interacts with the universal mind, working to explain if it is

feasible to believe that we actually co-create with God through what

has been called the Law of Attraction or the Law of Mind Action. 

Are we active partners in the creation of our own existence and is

this the result of our own divinity. If so,  is their any basis in reality -

using science - to provide this theory some validity.

Renowned German Physicist Werner Heisenberg, who won the

Nobel Prize in Physics in 1932 for his famous Heisenberg Uncertainty

Principle which outlined this probabilistic nature of the building

blocks of subatomic matter, coined the term "Potentia" which he

borrowed from Aristotle as outlined  in Heisenberg's book Physics and

Philosophy - The Revolution In Modern Science. Heisenberg notes

that in the philosophy of Aristotle,  matter was thought of in the relation

between form and matter and Heisenberg goes onto write of Aristotle's

approach:

 

All that we perceive in the world of phenomena around

us is formed in matter. Matter is in itself not a reality but

only a possibility,  a "potentia", it exists only by means of

form. In the natural process the "essence" passes over

from mere possibility into actuality.

 

This essence,  I conjecture,  is the pure conscious intention that

results on a local mind basis,  vibrationally from our emotionally

charged desires and in co-creation through universal consciousness

results in formed matter - actual reality. I consider this a theory 

that I would like to explore in more detail in future posts and 

in this upcoming Chapter 12 of the book. A sort of "Theory of

Attraction."

 

Of course I have been thinking and reading about this "potentia concept"

so it is not surprising that it has surfaced a number of times as direct

Meditation Guidance as offered below. In this brief passage titled

Potentia - the guidance clarifies this concept of potentia and how

it is connected through our vibrational desire into co-creative reality.

 

                              POTENTIA

 

All thought within the local mind exists

in potentia – sending out a vibration creating

this vision into potential existence. Each thought

is positively charged with emotion pushing its

creation – or negatively charged – usually

the undesirable charged thoughts of lack, fear,

doubt. 

 

Often one desire has conflicting charges

as our mind debates our desire or confidence

in our ability to secure. Positive and negative

charges of the same vibration negate each other

out leaving only potentia with a strong positive

and negative charge in the balance.

 

Whichever charge exists in the end determines

the vibration path through universal consciousness

and the final creation attracted into form.

The universal mind combines charges of others

with related potenia forming a creation in unison.

At the center of much religious thinking is the concept

of God/world dualism, where God is separate and

exerts influence on the world through what is known

as downward causation. Those who have been reading

my book, as it unfolds on the blog, realize that I follow

the view that God, and humankind, are actually intertwined

in a co-conspiracy of action and creation, with humankind

really the active agent of God on earth - through this active

living - expanding the potential and depth of creative

consciousness.

 

At the individual human level, I believe our personal 

consciousness is hardwired with what I refer to as the 

Divine Mind - our own divine nature or soul, which

acts as our creative conduit to connect and cocreate 

with God or Universal Consciousness. 

 

As noted in the title of the Meditation Guidance below,

this Blended Awareness is sparked by individual intention,

as each person creates, via their own desires. As the first

line of the guidance below reveals, each of us powers

and originates this creative process through our own

intention.

 

In other words, we spark the desire and team with God

in its cocreation, resulting in the appropriate manifested 

tangible form. Basically, what is being expressed here, 

is that our interaction with God is conducted via upward

causation, rather than downward.

  

BLENDED AWARENESS

 

We are powered by our own inception –

the infusion of our intention with God

consciousness -  replayed over and over    

within our personal consciousness until

it flowers – erupting in a bloom of

creation, expressing  the union of our

true God potential.

 

Consider this thought – as a particle of

God consciousness you hold the key to

universal possibility – potential - merely

by becoming an expression of your God

nature – refusing to allow thoughts of

separation to dissuade you and throw

you off course.

 

Let every action be a connected action,

enabling your divine nature and your

form existence to walk in unison,

becoming the vibrational harmony

of two consciousnesses being experienced

together.

 

Push your ego and your operational mind

to cooperate - watch as the magic

begins – igniting your world positively,

impacting all existence through your song –

the blended voices of two awarenesses

returning to the vibration of one.

CREATIVE CONTROL

 

Today, let us realize that we are each

in control of our individual life creations –

knowing we have, through our thoughts,

intentions, and desires brought this life

we experience now into tangible form

and have the power to make adjustments

via the same creative process.

 

Today, looking at our creations, let us

assess what is now existing - determining

what works well and what may require

an adjustment or even a radical new

approach - knowing the skills to do both

exist within us all.

 

Today, let us open ourselves up to the

power of purposeful change that

we possess – the creative power of

our minds teamed with divine support.

At the core of the New Thought spiritual philosophy

that my work echoes and reflects is the focus on the

relationship between our personal and universal

consciousness and the impact of our thoughts on 

the creation of the life we live. In an age where

blaming others, fate, luck, or happenstance for our 

life situation or troubles is a first response, I realize  

this is often not a popular approach, but none the

less I believe it is a spiritually viable one.

 

I wrote the note below for Ann today to remind her 

that with all the issues that she is facing at work her

best and final recourse is to create the change she

desires within by envisioning the the preferred end

result. Keeping this preferred outcome in mind and

then going out and actively assisting with the

manifestation of this dream. You could think of this

as constructive thought and envisioning followed by

supportive action, but the first and most important

step begins with thought.

              ONLY THROUGH THOUGHT

 

Know today that only through your thoughts

can this world be changed, altered, revised, or 

redirected  - only through your constructive

positive life empowering thought can the plot

be changed – the events be altered – the

outcome revised  - the consequences

redirected.

 

Know today that you are an active agent in

this life production – resist the temptation

to take a passive role and instead fully

engage turning towards the action with all

the strength and the force of your will and

clear intention - prepared to envision your

preferred creation.

 

Know today that you are not alone in this –

reach out to your partner in this co-creative 

effort – the divine power of God in full

cooperation –joining forces to replace the

turmoil with peace, confusion with clarity,

despair with joy, and discord with the

harmony of  heaven here on earth.

               POUND ON THE DOOR

 

Pound on the door of your desired future

until it opens – do it with clear intention

and an unencumbered mind free of question,

doubt, or needless concern – living as if the

hoped for outcome is with you, surrounds you,

is part of you.

 

Pound on this door knowing you are fully

ready to receive – are worthy to receive –

until the illusion of the door suddenly fades

and you are welcomed to the life of your

dreams which has waited so long for you

to clear your mind and heart and enter.

 

Pound on the door grateful for the opportunity

to be pounding – knowing God is always

with you, is always expressing through you,

and you are not alone in your attempts to

create your heaven on earth – rejoice as each

dream finds form – each desire fulfilled and

know you are truly blessed.

My personal mission, and the focus of the positive

spirituality I have found on the train is too enable

all of us to fully experience our own unique heaven 

on earth - here and now - while we are still living,

and with it, capture all the joy, peace, love, and

happiness that waits for us to arrive.  

 

Often we think, all would be solved if we could

place our current life in the trash compactor

and start over. But I fear that this course of action,  

although cathartic, may have us throwing the baby 

out with the bathwater, especially if we are

not quite sure what exactly needs changing.  

 

Instead - to be an effective instrument of personal 

transformation - my guidance suggests that we

must crawl back into our existing lives, assessing

them and using what currently is now, to grow

and evolve through. 

 

Even before I had my pen in hand, the first line

of the Affirmative Thought below came to me in

a flash, as I prepared to write Ann's note this 

morning. For Ann, this note was right on target 

as she debates whether to retire early and escape

the negative aspects of her job. Although Ann 

hates the stressful environment she continues to

love and enjoy the job itself  - so this assessment

makes a great deal of sense. 

 

I also believe we have the power to cocreate

our lives and accomplish whatever change we

truly seek. So today, may be all that is needed

is a life freshly conceived.  

 

LIFE FRESHLY CONCEIVED

 

Let us accept our inner power to create

the life of our dreams, the life we have

envisioned – prayed for – desired so

long using this life we now live – now

inhabit as the canvas, the foundation

for our efforts.

 

Let us, through our inner power, see

this life we now live with more clarity

and balanced assessment – let us

determine where less is called for and

more is required, what must disappear

and what must expand into a stronger

presence.

 

Let us now, with this reassessment

completed, use our cocreative power

to envision this freshly conceived life

into a working model to guide our

prayers, infuse our affirmations, give

life to our meditations, and propel our

actual efforts with centered emotion

and right attitude as this new thought

takes form.

                 THE LIFE WE LIVE NEXT

 

Today let us recall that it is our responsibility

to fully and clearly envision the life we wish

to be living next - in our thoughts, in our

dreams, complete within our consciousness

energized by the accompanying appropriate

emotions.

 

Today let us recall it is this all encompassing

vision held firm within our souls that forms

the blueprint for the universal cooperative

attraction to intertwine with our own focus

and create this vision into form – into the

life we will live next.

 

Today let us recall that true creation is

spiritual creation – the power within us 

to ask, to believe, and then to receive but

also to know and prepare our alignment

and complete expectation with heart, mind,

and soul in harmony -  and in this unison

be ready to receive the life we will live next

and thrive.

All that is created starts with a thought in consciousness,

whether more locally in our Personal Consciousness, or

universally in what I refer to as God Consciousness, both

are linked in a cocreative expression that has resulted in

the world we now inhabit.

 

This powerful act of conceiving and then receiving is at

the heart of the positive New Thought spiritual message

I have received on the train and, for me at least,  is a clear

indication that we are not alone and do live within a divine

universe.  Happenstance, circumstance, or just blind luck 

really does not apply,  but instead what we conceive in

earnest is truly then given shape.

 

So let us use the Affirmative Thought below as a reminder

to conceive a grand future with our heaven on earth

unfolding on cue and thus immersing us in all the joy,

peace, love, and happiness we rightfully deserve.  

 

   CONCEIVED THEN GIVEN SHAPE

 

Today we turn our eyes towards future

happiness, envisioning ourselves within

living a life so fulfilling we know a touch

of grace has tapped us for this glorious

occasion, earnestly we lay the bricks of

our intention to ensure the vision finds

its form unwavering.

 

Today we turn our hearts towards a life

so appealing we smile and shine at a

simple glimpse of it, setting our desire

to ensure its full attraction, its welcomed

arrival into our experience, open to the

joy it has in-store for our days ahead.

 

Today we turn our souls towards complete

thanksgiving for what waits our arrival,

this glimpse of heaven on earth we see

on the horizon, the waiting joy of a life

first simply conceived then given shape

by our fervent designing.

CORNERS  

 

We turn a corner one day and there

the solution we had wished for, anticipated,

is waiting for us to arrive, we look in wonder

and marvel at the magic of our existence

exclaiming – “how did this get here” as we

incorporate it gladly into our lives.

 

We turn a corner one day and there is

our purpose, detailed and complete, clear

and unambiguous, making perfect sense

and as we try it on for size, it feels so

special - fits so well, we proceed along

in life comfortable and majestically

appointed.

 

We turn a corner one day and reveal

our heaven on earth now fully formed -

it surrounds us, encompasses us, and we

realize that each measure of joy, peace,

love and happiness we experience was

well laid, conceived within the foundation

of our thoughts, secured by positive emotion,

empowered by our heartfelt belief and faith.

The positive spirituality movement, often

referred to as New Thought, is focused on

the power of positive thought in creating

our lives. As the Affirmative Thought below

titled A Better Explanation conveys -

if we change our thoughts we change

our lives. Maybe it's as simple as finding

a better explanation.

 

A BETTER EXPLANATION

 

Today, let us remind ourselves that our thoughts

are things and possess a power to work good

in our lives, the power to help us rephrase the

life we find ourselves in now, setting a new

and more positive one in motion.

 

Today, let us turn our attention from what is

and towards what we wish, prefer, or desire

it to be – to find the words to form a more

pleasing thought, a better explanation of the

life we intend to live.

 

Today, let us shine a new light on ourselves

and the world – brightening the possibilities,

uncovering the potential, reflecting the real

worthwhile purposeful existence, always

ours for just a sincere and credible thought –

the life we with God have always intended –

always envisioned.

Life is a creative enterprise and we all have creative

powers that enable us to live it. Some of us have

been falsely convinced that these powers are only

in the hands of a few, this is not realistic or true.

The note below reminds us of this power and our

obligation to use it for the betterment of our lives

and the the existence of our co-inhabitants  in this

venture.

 

CREATIVE FORCES

Today let us unleash our creative forces

reaching for new and fresh ways to live

our lives – to approach our challenges

and tasks at hand knowing we within

have a wellspring of inspiration waiting

to be tapped and brought to life.

 

As we unleash our creative forces let us

relish this power enabling us to give birth

to vibrant possibilities, reshaping and

re-envisioning what exists as we call the

unthought of into fresh being - expanding

our lives and our world.

 

So as we unleash our creative power today

let us feel our strength and our divine

connection knowing this is our magic –

our miraculous wonder to take less and

form it into more – seeing within

and bringing to life a thought into being –

creating our masterpiece – our contribution

to living.

notion - a vague idea in which some

      confidence is placed.

 

We each have a notion about our lives,

a premise based on a concept or belief,

maybe just a vague idea as conveyed in

the definition shared above, more often

an ego based assessment of what is

actually occurring in our existence. 

We layer these notions into a workable

theory, and through actual experience,

we acquire subjective empirical evidence

to give it a basis in truth.

 

In our spiritual pursuits, we squint

our mind's eye and attempt the same

undertaking. Personally, I am forever

envisioning the perfectly orchestrated 

world of God consciousness, ordered

and sound. The inspired messages I

receive, as the note below conveys,

often follow suit.

 

What is your notion?

 

PERFECT ORDER

 

Today let us look through what appears

to be, to what really is, realizing beneath

the seeming confusion is a world of divine

order with each moment and event perfectly

placed and unfolding.

 

Today let us accept and trust this order

knowing only graceful good waits for our

partaking – well beneath the surface of

our fears or doubts flows the stream

of peace and calm – placidly serene.

 

Today let us embrace this perfect order

allowing it to set in tranquil motion all our

undertakings – each salient expectation –

inspiring our untapped creative essence

as we are gently guided towards our

full unfolding.

Much of mind control, and subsequently life

control, is based on our perception of what

is happening now, or will happen to us next. 

This perception is the battle zone of our egos,

with the latter clearly fostering a negative

perspective, supposedly for our own good, 

even if that perspective tears us up inside with

stress, fear, worry, and doubt, that is needless.

 

I present for our consideration, the State

Of Good, a New Thought perspective conveying

the concept that in a divine sense, the universe

is built to provide,  if we are prepared to receive.

Often we approach this fountain of good with

our mental mugs turned upside down, so assured

we are that nothing waits our receiving. 

 

Ann and I have been involved with some work

and family struggles, which have seemed to set

our minds in tandem to our ego based negative

what if's. I wrote this first note titled In Our

Favor for us yesterday, to see if we could both 

shift our  focus. 

 

IN OUR FAVOR

 

All things are working in our favor

today, as our greater good erupts

to support every action, introduce

new solutions, remind us of untapped

resources, inspiring an attitude

of confident diligence.

Today, as all things work in our favor

we realize the road ahead is actually

more manageable than previously

thought, and we allow the light at the

end of the tunnel, although distant,

to guide and encourage us boldly

onward.

As all things work in our favor,

no doubt or fear will stall our progress,

no slow start undermine our momentum,

instead we forge on knowing we have

all the ingredients needed to simmer

our success to a full boil.

 

AT G. 8.26.13

  

This note helped, but by last night we were both 

back, this time, delicately chewing the mental

cud of our ego based fears, even after spending

some time discussing the note. This morning

we were both reluctant to get up, as Ann asked

if it would be ok if she could just stay in bed for

a few days.  

 

As Ann rolled over and went back to sleep,

I let the dogs out and fixed her morning tea.

I felt an urge to get a head-start on my spiritual

reading, so I opened up my 365 Science Of Mind -

A Year Of Daily Wisdom from Ernest Holmes,  

and read: 

 

"Life may have given everything to

you but only that which you accept

is yours to use."

 

Followed by :

 

"You can project any objective

experience you may legitimately

desire. Be certain that you are 

accepting this truth, that you

are living in joyous expectation 

of good, that you are accepting

abundance."

 

I wrote the note below titled Filled To The

Brim to reinforce this spirtual truth, so that Ann

and I, and anyone reading this post that needs it,

might take a deep breath, restore our faith in

the Law Of Good, and turning our mugs right

side up, fill them to the brim, instead, with our 

waiting good.

 

FILLED TO THE BRIM

 

Today let us open ourselves up to

the good that awaits, fully ready

and prepared to receive our rightful

bounty, knowing all we presently

need is within our grasp, requiring

only our heartfelt acceptance.

 

Look towards this good saying

within –

 

“ I and my good are one,

my life is in perfect order!”

 

then proceed onward with only

this truth engaged, grateful for

this continuous prosperity.

 

With this mindset let us live

thoroughly immersed in the

state of good today – gathering

up the bounty, utilizing the newly

arrived resources, and wondering

at the endless supply of all that

is needed, arriving as needed,

filing our lives to the brim!

Often, in my life, assistance arrives just when

it is needed most. As I deal with my "life set

asunder," as outlined in my previous post,

I am directed to a simple, but profound, book

by a leading Buddhist based meditation teacher

and spiritual author, Sharon Salzberg, titled 

(no caps)  faith  Trusting Your Own Deepest

Experience. 

 

Faith, as outlined in this book, is not dependent

on the belief in a higher divinity, but, is based,

on faith in ourselves, and the world we live in,

to see us through whatever life has dealt us.  

The direct quote below from the book, explains

this perspective of faith:

 

Faith entails the understanding

that we don't know how things will

unfold. Even so, faith allows us to

claim the possibility that we ourselves

might change in ways that will allow

us to recognize and trust the helping

hands stretched toward us.

 

So today, in the note below, I am working

to reframe my Essential Faith, to reflect this

aspect of  Shaorn's faith message within a

New Thought framework,  as  an Affirmative

Thought for the day. It is  precisely this

essential faith that I, and anyone else who

may be suffering, may need to attain in order 

to transcend the despair we face and, to

hopefully, find a workable way forward. 

 

ESSENTIAL FAITH

 

Today let us affirm our essential faith –

our positive belief that our capabilities

teamed with the support of the universe

will result in the actual creation of tangible

good, our cocreation of a life worth living.

With this faith, let us proceed onward

confident that we are prepared to meet

the challenges of this day, or any day,

simply by tapping our strength within,

knowing this reservoir of willful

determination is ours for the asking.

Thus prepared, no challenge, conflict,

or perceived struggle can impede our

forward progress, so let us rise up

with this faith fully mobilized, refusing

to be deterred, as we stretch our inner

vision into workable form - as our dreams

become a reality.

I am a magnet for positive outcomes,

all good comes to me now.

 

The expectation of good is at the center

of true positive thinking, it really is the

epicenter of New Thought. If our thoughts

are things, or better put, become things

or take tangible form, then we truly do

cocreate our existence, and it is imperative

that we succeed in our mind control.

 

My magnet mantra, in italics above,

works for me because it enables me

to focus my consciousness, especially

when I realize that reality may be

presenting an alternative view or

perspective. Sometimes, I am like

the child in mid tantrum, covering

my ears, closing my eyes, I repeat

this mantra over and over, refusing

to stop, until my negative thoughts

give up.  I have learned they often will.

 

As I mentioned in the note yesterday,

titled True Treasure, belief and faith

are the elixirs that allow us to transcend

what we consider “logical” or “realistic,”

and utilize these spiritual treatments for

our greater good.  

  

RECOGNIZE AND RECEIVE

 

The  universe is always working

in our favor, we need to stay

aware, open to the possibilities,

the happenstances, the coincidences,

the opportunities – presented by God’s

grace, aligning ourselves, preparing

ourselves, ensuring we are open

to recognize and receive.

 

This stream of good offers the aware

not only what has been prayed for,

but even more, the essentials

that will be needed to fulfill the steps

yet understood or conceived.

 

Today, let us be attuned to the moment,

open to receive all that is presented,

being a mental magnet attracting good

with every step, with every breath,

hearts open, arms outstretched wide

and welcoming, knowing this is our

entitlement, our true inheritance.

Incantation – a series of words said as

a magic spell or a charm or a spiritual

ritual. In magic, occultism, or witchcraft

an incantation is often used with the

intention of casting a spell on an object

or person. As a spiritual device, it is

usually intended to invoke or praise

a deity.

 

Last week, we opened the new year of 2015

discussing the mind as a creative instrument,

especially as it pertains to the Law of Mind

Action or Attraction. We highlighted the

role of  “a figment” of the imagination,

using this term to represent the kindling

needed to start a fire of intention, one

that will result in actual tangible output,

in this law based process of cocreation.

 

It is essential to note this cocreative law,

referred to here, conveys that the universe

is structured to create for us - whatever

we hold in thought with strong intention

and unwavering faith - with our minds,

figuratively, connected to a virtual 3D

printer, replicating our thoughts, in

real-life, tangible matter.  This is the

good news.

 

The not so good news is that our minds

suffer from Psychic Entropy and almost

unmanageable mind wandering, as we

reviewed in Chapter 10 of Finding God

On The Train titled Mind Control –

Control of Consciousness. Even if

we start out with the best of intentions,

often through this mental deterioration,

we find our figment lost in a negative

mindset, or at least, exhibiting far less

than unwavering belief.

 

This is where the use of affirmations -

affirmative declarations may assist us

with maintaining a conducive cocreative

inner environment. Let’s consider the

concept of “incantations,” to underscore

the need for these positive mantra based

statements, to be repeated like charms

or spells or chants - envisioning a shaman

or medicine man or women dancing and

chanting in our heads, possibly shaking

incense or some magic substance - creating

an endless loop of positive thought, a spell

of positivity, thus warding off the entropy

and the wandering mind from establishing

second guessing or disbelief.  

 

Now, with this in mind, read the note

below and consider taking some time

to craft a workable charm or spell,

to support whatever figment of intention

you would like to cocreate. Remember,

use your tailored incantation to avoid;

second-guessing, minimizing your efforts,  

or criticizing this entire process.

 

One of my favorite incantations is:

 

I am a magnet for positive outcomes.

All good comes to me now.

 

So, when you are unleashed and ready,

with a personalized incantation in hand,

start intending.

 

UNLEASHED AND READY

 

Affirm yourself, empower yourself,

with words and thoughts and visions

of strength, of confidence, of skillful

capacity, realizing the true power

you possess to create, to accomplish,

to bring to tangible form all you

intend.

 

It is time to infuse your heart,

soul, mind, and consciousness with

the beauty, the wonder, the splendor

of you – aligned and purposeful,

with you unleashed and ready for

positive action.

 

Today assess your inventory of natural

skills, abilities, talents and potentials –

knowing whatever you dream

will spring to life – unlimited,

unrestrained, without issue –

realizing and tapping into the

cocreative divine energy generating

with you, through you, for you!

The Law of Attraction, as it is most widely

known, proposes that God has set in motion

a natural/universal law, which enables each

of us, to attract into our lives, whatever we

so desire, as long as it is done with faith and

fully aligned intention.

 

As I write this, I am wondering if Jesus was

the originator of this Law of  Attraction concept,

for his central message centered on how to use

prayer effectively, to obtain what we desire or

intend. And of course, his use of prayer in

healing actually kickstarted the New Thought

movement.

 

 “Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith,

you will receive.”  (Matthew 21:22)

 

“Ask and it shall be given you; seek and you

shall find; knock and it will be opened to

you.” (Matthew 7:7)

 

Deepak Chopra, in his exceptional book, 

The Third Jesus, The Christ We Cannot

Ignore, explores this connection and 

much more.  

 

The note below, asks us to stretch, to see

beyond the limitations set in motion by

well-meaning, but misguided authorities.

I would have to guess, this warning probably

includes me: so please understand this

is my opinion or impression, not meant

to challenge yours.

 

Note, in this quest for a positive personal

spirituality, we who have declared spiritual

independence - spiritual freelancers so

to speak, all get to create our own approach,

believing what we wish; what actually works

for us; or moves us; and in the end, if desired:

free to tailor our own personal dogma.

I guess we might call this approach a

“personalized spirituality.”

 

In truth, I don’t really believe that we are

attracting “bad or evil” into our lives based

on the Law of Attraction. Seems to me, we

do this very well, without help, on our own

ego based efforts. 

 

I propose - our indwelling divine connection

knows what is essential for our authentic

development: is fully aware of our calling,

and cocreatively works with us - when we

cooperate and are aligned - to accomplish

what we truly need to fulfill our mission.

 

I do believe, we are the hands and feet

of God, and must take an active –

“constructive” – role in the cocreative

process. This may be the reason why

success seems to come to those who are

prepared, and willing,  to work hard

to accomplish their intentions. It makes

even more ense, that to be aligned refers

to our being constructively involved in

what we wish to attract.

 

Your thoughts?

 

OUR DIVINE PARTNERSHIP

 

We often must stretch to see beyond

the limitations placed on God and humanity,

by well meaning, but misguided authorities,

realizing instead the integral relationship,

which exists between the creative force

and the constructive, effort based, force.

 

As we understand and fully accept

the creative nature of God, let us take

advantage of this gift and grace, seeking

guidance and direction, asking for insight

and suggestions, allowing God to inspire

our plans and make clear the way forward.

 

Then, let us realize our individual

constructive effort is required, we must

implement the actions needed, lay

the bricks, plant the seeds, gather

the resources to support the undertaking,

doing what needs to be done, and in

the end, reap the harvest of our divine

partnership.

New Thought proponents propose –

more accurately conveyed as

sincerely believe - we humans exist

within a shared consciousness –

and this consciousness is perpetually

attracting what we hold in our

imaginations – and through this

attractive force - when accomplished

with full belief and alignment, we create

in our physical lives, what is imagined

in this consciousness - positive or

negative.

 

New Thought folks consider this a

spiritual law. As the note below suggests,

it is easy to see this law as just so much

spiritual hocus – pocus. But, I have done

my experimenting and, personally,

I believe in the magic.   

 

HOCUS - POCUS

 

Often we must stretch our imaginations,

to see clearly the magic in the world,

for when our imaginations take hold,

our powers are supernatural, things only

vaguely wished for, desired, now find form,

solid and substantial, in our day-to-day

living.

 

Perhaps we might do well to delve deeper

into this phenomenon, and rather than

resist or dismiss such hocus-pocus,

we instead apply our science, testing

the premise with an experiment or two,

conjuring up our own creations.

 

As we do, let us keep in mind where

all creations first reside, imagined 

by an originator, whose mental magic

was so inspired to put wheels where legs

had been, with seats replacing stirrup

saddles – as horsepower no longer

required a horse.

Jalal ad-Din Rumi (1207-1273)

Poet and Founder of the Mawlawi Sufi Order

 

Ye who search of God, of God, pursue.

Ye need not search for God is you, is you!

Why seek ye something that was missing

ne’er?  Save you none is, but you are –

where, oh, where?

 

The desire to separate humankind from

God, and all sentient life for that matter,

becomes more difficult as we explore

the spiritual concept of God as an

expanding consciousness.

 

Although the quote from Rumi above,

demonstrates what has been a popular

esoteric mystical opinion - we and God

are one - the exoteric religious authorities

have, for the most part, considered this

to be anathema, heretical, often severely

punished. 

 

This may be a reason why I usually sit

on this type of guidance – note that I

recorded this guidance below mid July

of 2013 – and have not returned to it,

until I rediscovered it this morning,

and felt ready to delve into its meaning.

Usually, I would rather not offend

the sensibilities of those who cannot

fathom, or discuss, this close a union

of the divine and humankind. Just so

happens,  Ann, my wife, is firmly in

this group.  

 

Yet, in truth, most of my spiritual

work has been finding and redefining

a less supernatural, more user friendly

God, one that might fit within our modern

perspective. I believe the note below

is proposing  just such a conceptual

framework. Your thoughts?

 

ONE PRESENCE SHARED

 

We and God are intertwined.

We and God are intermingled.

 

A shared consciousness, where our

consciousness exists within the limitless

consciousness of God, stretching

the space of all conscious existence –

we and God are one, God within,

God without – together, we and God –

the creator of all form (which exists as an

extension of our joint consciousness)

are intertwined.

 

Form is simply, and totally, a representation

of the creative thought of consciousness,

and as such, has no innate power. Always

in matters of form, we must return to the

originator and the origination of our sense

experience – creative conscious thought.

 

Let us fully comprehend and grasp this

essential truth of comingled consciousness;

sharing the combined power of truly dual

conscious existence, expanding  our

consciousness and revealing the truth of

all existence, one presence shared. Seek

the point of origin in meditation, reflection,

and prayer.

 

Understand, it is only through our personal

conscious connection with the world of form

that God can impact or interact or experience

the world of form. As God is a vehicle of our

expanded consciousness, we, you, me all

sentient life is a conduit for god to form

consciousness, for mutual, total, integrated

existence. Each sentient being is a conscious

receptor of and within tangible existence.

 

(If we do not open ourselves up to this God

connection, God cannot fully enter our world

except through grace.)

I am in the process of reviewing all of

my previously unpublished Affirmative

Thoughts written since 2009 –  sifting

through to see if  I have, possibly,

overlooked useful guidance that I

should now consider publishing on

the blog, or even as part of the

Affirmative Thought book I am now

compiling for publication. The note

featured below titled The True Story,

I believe is worthy of a fresh look. 

        _________________

 

The words we use to describe our

lives have power – the power to

attract, the power to manifest,

the power to alter our lives for

the better: or, for the worse.  

 

Often we interpret the slings and

arrows of outrageous fortune as

some sort of red badge of courage –

as if they define who we are within;

yet, in reality, they often become

our fixation, our target, rather than

what we are overcoming, moving

beyond, or better yet, running away

from.

 

As the note below reflects, often

the true story is the whole and

perfect story – the story of our

magnificence: even if it is still

on its way.

 

THE TRUE STORY

 

Today, let us tell a new story

about our lives, our experiences,

our personal existence – a story

of what we wish to encounter;

intend to cocreate and manifest

in this world – the story written

by our divine self rather than

our ego.

 

Today, let us tell only a story of

happiness, joy, and success – a story

reflecting the magnificent life that

is waiting for us to receive  it – a story

of prosperity, of love, of triumph 

where every breath and every step

takes us closer to our bliss.

 

Today, let us tell the “whole and

perfect” story – the story God has

prepared for us to live – full of

enthusiasm, creativity, wonder,

magic, and invincible growth –

the true story!

A LIVING REFLECTION

 

Touch life tenderly today, realizing

for the most part, it is our personal

creation, a reflection of our thoughts,

desires, selective interpretations, hopes,

and wishes – always mutable – ready

to transform before our eyes when asked.

 

Feel the current and flow of life today –

reach in and touch its momentum, drift

with it through the day, or change its

course, sending it obediently rushing

in a new direction – always strangely

mirroring our deepest sentiments

and emotions.

 

Welcome life today, participating in it

fully, knowing we each contribute to

its communal projection – flickering

thoughts uniquely envisioned by each

presenter – a cornucopia of inspired

intentions – unfathomed by a single

participant – best experienced in unison

with others.

LET GOD ASSIST

 

Today let go of what refuses to be resolved

and let God assist in the solution, releasing

whatever frustration or tension is associated

with previous efforts and instead move forward

with peaceful acceptance.

 

Today in prayer and supplication let God

take the load and support your efforts,

joining forces to provide a strong cocreative

partnership in all matters large and small -

realizing you are not alone but teamed with

the ultimate power and force of greater good.

 

Today be reassured that all will be overcome,

enabling you to move forward free of fear,

free of doubt, free of needless turmoil and

live again with peace and happiness – stronger

and wiser for the ordeal – poised and ready to

live and thrive again once more.

FULLY IMAGINE 

 

Today, we realize that our dreams

only wait until we can fully imagine

an abundant future where we trust

all will be provided. We understand

we must see an abundant life ahead,

not one of lack or meager provisions.

 

Today, we open up our imaginations

and see more not less, plenty not

scarcity, positive, not negative,

all rather than some. Our dreams will

not manifest and appear in a lack

of trust in our futures.

 

Today, we turn away from envisioning

a future built on the meager provisions

of today and instead, prepare a

home of overflowing wonder – where

all is provided – where only plenty

is available. This is the fertile ground

for the seeds of our dreams to grow.

 

Today, we fully believe and trust in God

with our total being, opening our

arms to the universe ready to receive!

Are we taking advantage of the moments

as conveyed in the thought below? These

moments of inspiration and insight often

provide the basis of our divine guidance.

Yet, if we are too occupied in the mundane,

it is easy to overlook the offering and miss

the opportunity completely. Let us be attentive

to these moments of God’s grace.  

 

MOMENTS

 

Within each day comes a moment,

singular, significant, and large –

full of fresh inspiration and insights,

beckoning our attention, abounding

with pure potential, crisp, ripe, and

waiting.

 

To touch this moment, we must

be aware, awake, our minds in sync

with possibilities yet conceived,

open to releasing our grip

on practicality, as we secure

our hold on the magnificent.

 

These moments of God’s grace –

of divine love -  infinite attention

blended with conscious kindness –

providing an opportunity to cocreate

a life of vast wonder and worthy

direction – requiring only our

focused participation.

creative contemplation.

 

Today, let us reveal the truth

of our belief in every fiber

of our being, reflecting a total

oneness, a complete synthesis

of life with an active God –

purposeful, compassionate,

and authentic.

ENVISION LIFE

 

Think it, hear it, see it, touch it, be it fully

in your imagination and co-create your dream

through God’s infinite love and power. Imagine

every detail, every aspect with the fuel of your

love and desire. Live within your imagining until

it feels real and becomes your reality. Breathe

in the life air of the new creation until your

envisioning takes shape like a sculptor’s

art – caress its line, memorize its movement,

fuel it with life – a living, vibrant envisioning:

clear and perfect in its power.

 

Every moment you have, move back into the

envisioning, your imagining and resume your

life within, savoring the sensual experience,

believing in its reality. Never question, never

doubt only believe in the possibility – envisioning

until it takes form in the reality of your life.

Envision through imagining the new life, the new

purpose, the new goals, never doubting, only

experiencing fully.

 

Envision with love – strong desire – feel the

emotion – the happiness and joy this vision

gives you until it is completely framed in the

reality of form: given life by your empowered,

loving vision.

Sometimes my guidance leads me to a message

I have already received, recorded in my journal,

but have failed to notice or fully comprehend.

This is the case with poem offered below from

November of 2014, which on the surface, at least,

provides a poetic description of the thought

based co-creation process.

 

THOUGHT INTO BEING

 

Tangible existence molded into form by firm

intention, powered by imaginative vision, 

a process of unfolding, being, total restoration

of a singular idea expressed, finding form, 

through conscious cooperation, the creator

and the creation, the baker and the oven,

the smith and the cauldron, meet in perfect

harmonic unison, as the glass-blowers breath

travels the tube, finding expression, breath

in the molten sand, thick glowing liquid expands, 

expiration intent on becoming, life-giving way

to what was not before, yet now, in transparent 

splendor is viable, intact, artful thought bursting

into being.

At the center of much religious thinking is

the concept of God/world dualism, where God

is separate and exerts influence on the world

through what is known as downward causation.

 

Those who have been reading my Notes On

Enlightenment published on this blog, realize

that I follow the view that God, and humankind,

are actually intertwined in a co-conspiracy 

of action and creation, with humankind

the active agent of God on earth - through

this active living - expanding the potential 

and depth of creative consciousness.

 

At the individual human level, I believe our 

personal consciousness is hardwired with

what I refer to as the Divine Mind - our divine

nature or soul, which acts as our creative

conduit to connect and cocreate with God

or Universal Consciousness. 

 

As noted in the title of the Meditation Guidance

below, this Blended Awareness is sparked by

individual intention, as each person creates,

via their own desires. As the first line of the

guidance below reveals, each of us powers

and originates this creative process through

our own intention.

 

In other words, we spark the desire and team

with God in its cocreation, resulting in the

appropriate manifested tangible form.

Basically, what is being expressed here, 

is that our interaction with God is conducted 

via upward causation, rather than downward.

  

BLENDED AWARENESS

 

We are powered by our own inception –

the infusion of our intention with God 

consciousness -  replayed over and over

within our personal consciousness

until it flowers – erupting in a bloom

of creation, expressing  the union of our 

true God potential.

 

Consider this thought – as a particle of God

consciousness you hold the key to universal

possibility – potential - merely by becoming

an expression of your God nature – refusing

to allow thoughts of separation to dissuade

you and throw you off course.

 

Let every action be a connected action, 

enabling your divine nature and your form

existence to walk in unison, becoming the

vibrational harmony of two consciousnesses

being experienced together.

 

Push your ego and your operational mind 

to cooperate - watch as the magic begins –

igniting your world positively, impacting

all existence through your song – the blended

voices of two awarenesses returning

to the vibration of one.

resonate – produce or be filled with

a deep, full, reverberating sound;

evoke or suggest images, memories,

or emotions; technical – produce

electrical or mechanical resonance.

 

resonance – the quality in a sound

of being deep, full, and reverberating;

the ability to evoke or suggest images,

memories, and emotions:

physics – the reinforcement or

prolongation of sound by reflection

from a surface or by the synchronous

vibration of a neighboring object;

a short-lived subatomic particle that

is an excited state of a more stable

particle.

 

OUR RESONANCE

Our thoughts resonate; our emotions

resonate; our every attitude, enthusiasm

or inspiration resonates with a clear

vibration of ‘sound’ existence; being,

communicating, through the physical

and spiritual universe, an intention,

a purpose, a signal of possibility,

connecting firmly to all surrounding

existence a declaration of determination

which, in turn, creates like expressions,

a chorus, a harmony of continual becoming,

sounding, rebounding, resounding.

 

It is essential that our sonic

communication matches our desires,

our true intentions; the pure, positive,

productive voice of the reach for our

hopes and lasting happiness: fixing

on this tuning, rather than the fearful

tremors and dissonance of the discarded,

the unwanted, the resisted; those vexing

expressions of darkness, of pending

doom, with their unfolding stories

of possible, dismal consequences,

often replete with life’s suffocations

and sorrows – and instead, in place

of – let us draft a fresh story, a more

wholesome story, one of overcoming,

flourishing, singular transcendence

and true success – resonating a sound

so strong, so resilient it vibrates our

life, all of life, towards wholeness,

more-ness, stretching us upward,

propelling us in unison with a solid

declaration of growth.

CLARITY OF INTENTION  

Clarity of intention forms the basis of cocreated

existence. Formulate in words with strong emotion

a set of proposed intentions. Document and

remember each in vivid detail, breathing life

and energy into their beingness, creating each

within your consciousness and soul.

 

Now, with inner declaration, inform the universe

of your creative intention, of your complete belief

in the intended outcomes, fully expecting what

is required to be set in motion, accelerating the

cocreation needed to proceed onward; believing

fully in positive outcomes.  

 

Spend visionary thought time with each intention,

immersed in the details until the vision takes shape

and life; and within take up residence, living within

this expected reality, existing clear with a firm belief

in the proposed reality of this cocreation effort.

Animate and activate these visions, willing

them into being – whole, vibrant, alive.

At the center of New Thought spirituality

is the act of creativity – the ability to use

our minds to create tangible substance –

physical form. It is at the heart of the creative

process that we most resemble God.

Each day we all live our own Genesis creation

story -  utilizing our gift of creative energy

for growth, or at times, our own hardship.

  

CREATIVE CONNECTION

 

The creative energy of God is within you –

surrounds you – radiates from you  - infusing

you with the creative powers of the universal

mind.  Simply tap this power by going within

and connecting to its source -  then feel the

surge of perfect thought – alive within every

cell of your being – feel the connection to

all that is and become one with the creative

force within you.

 

All creativity is at your fingertips ready to be

harnessed by your consciousness – open the

canvas and create the life of your dreams –

heaven on earth – outlining the knowledge or

guidance you wish to convey.  There can be no

wrong, no missteps,  since you are all creative

energy – just trust in the source of the signal

and move forward. There is no failure in this

creative action – it is the work of God – the

divine calling – the building and forming of

what is at first thought and becomes form.

 

All you create comes from source – is one with

source – an expression of God through you –

wake up to it – use it to light the path to

oneness, to wholeness, to the connection

with God.

Often, I allow the words to appear 

and find their place as willed from

beyond, or perhaps deep within

myself, I am never quite sure, and

as with most things spiritual,

the source is not readily clarified. 

 

I do believe this force that touches

our hearts, that some of us recognize

as divine, is not held to our narrow

perspective: our sliver of time; but is,

the becoming itself, is the emergence

of life pursued, encouraging all who

will listen to strive further, to keep

pushing, thus being made more alive

by the very momentum created out 

of our living, and like a joyful child

being playfully spun - shrieking with

laughter - cajoling us to spin

faster - please, faster. 

  

THE PURSUIT OF BECOMING

Allow what is to be, without fret

or sorrow or consternation,

being aware of the true destiny

of this existence, a life lived

in pursuit of becoming what

has been established before,

and will be forever after:

predestined destiny, the arising

of fuller, more fragrant possibility,

do not dismay but flourish,

for this time has been and will

forever be a charted course

of a multitude of strivings,

reachings,  graspings, and when

a grip is found, seeking leverage,

summoning strength, and finding

new ground, an unexpected stance,

a wary balance, a fresh perspective,

a new, ripe beginning from which

to reach, to strive, to seek again

and again, and forever again –

in pursuit of becoming.

Whatever you ask for in prayer

with faith, you will receive.

                Mathew 21:22.

 

So I tell you, whatever you ask

for in prayer, believe that you

have received it, and it will be yours.

                Mark 11:24.

 

Much of New Thought is based on these

two quixotic and revolutionary quotes

offered by Jesus of Nazaeth, that without

question demonstrate his clear and

profound comprehension of the very

essence of our relationship with God.

I believe Jesus would read the guidance

I post below, titled Our Tender Grasp,

and be in agreement.

 

No matter what faith we profess, 

it behooves us to realize that this concept

of the doable nature of firm intention

with solid faith is worth mastering,

or at least comprehending.

 

So often, individually and collectively,

we listen to all who blur our focus, and

in the end find we have lost our grip on

what we so sorely needed.  

 

As we reflect on this Easter season, let us,

with our own firm intention and solid faith

intact, reach out to evolve this world,

our world, once more.

 

OUR TENDER GRASP

There is no destination beyond our reach,

no vision incapable of taking form and life,

no sentiment or emotion that eludes our

tender grasp – all is doable, possible with

firm intention and solid faith; strengthened

by a resolve that refuses to be deterred or waylaid;

a force of will significant, energized – set in full

enthusiastic motion – unrelenting – a united

focus on deserved attainment.

 

With this clear approach allow no doubt,

fear or concern to blur the focus; denying each

as they erupt as unworthy and unwarranted;

and with equal measure turn a deaf ear and

blind eye to any criticism, judgment, opinion,

or envious conceit tended by friend or foe alike;

proceeding instead with a scrubbed mind,

whitewashed, empty of harmful self or other -

defeating chatter.

 

Thus prepared, we move adroitly towards

what is waiting our full discovery and claiming,

our due reward for faith and undaunted

determination; open to receiving what

has been prepared for those who master

this belief based becoming.

As we have discussed,  the focus of the message

of  Finding God On The Train Story is that

we and God interact through a shared

consciousness, and as a result, as the note

below conveys. a “logical” outgrowth of this

conceptual framework that we share:

a combined existence teamed to make the

most of our endeavors and our lives." 

This, of course, is facilitated, and the

benefits of co-existence maximized

when we  actually buy-in to this

framework.

 

Likewise, this notion is built on the

premise that every living being has

an inner divine nature and connection,

that even with flat out negation, this

divine connection cannot be turned

off or severed. Thus, the opportunity

for this inner divinity to assist even

the totally lost with reclaiming their

redemption.

 

We, who believe in combined being,

are in a unique position to actually

cocreate with God our lives of joy,

peace, love, and happiness – heaven

on earth. Others, will benefit from

God’s close proximity and ability

to assist when possible.    

 

COMBINED BEING

The lasting partnership of total oneness

asks for only acceptance, a willingness

to be one with the enveloping consciousness

of the eternal spirit, open to its flow, its push

and pull of complete awareness.

 

This consciousness incubates and fosters

the individually perceived awareness,

seen by most, as distinct and separate.

Spirit is with you as the air you breathe

is with you, dislocation, separation is

untenable, impossible; yet many conjure

a distance between the created and

the creative force of all.

 

Understand that Spirit, the infinite

awareness, through the soul, provides

the framework for a lasting partnership

of combined being, able to live and

be a united unfolding presence, open

to engender form from well-intentioned

thought, to partner in the cocreative

wonder of living, being, becoming.

YOUR CREATION - AFFIRMATIVE THOUGHT INSPIRED BY THE FINDING GOD ON THE TRAIN STORY - QUEST FOR A POITIVE, PERSONL AND CONTEMPLATIVE SPIRITUALITY

ON TWITTER  AT

@GodOnTheTrain

 

The most difficult New Thought concept for me 

to originally accept, was the idea that I personally

create my life experience through the Law of

Attraction and Mind Action. I found it difficult

to accept personal responsibility; especially

for the less than desirable aspects of my life. 

There were always “circumstances to blame”

or the negative actions of others. For now,

I offer the Affirmative Thought below as food

for new thought.

   

YOUR CREATION

Today wake and realize you are

the architect of this life – line by line –

movement by movement – each scene –

each act – each moment forged in your

creative mind and formed as life.

 

Today wake and realize that you are

the designer of the garment you wear

each day – the fabric threaded with

each emotion – desire – want – tightly

woven at times to protect you from

the elements – colored in hues to

match your mood – your passion –

your visual pleasure.

 

Today wake and realize that you are

the artist and on this life canvas, you

select the medium – oil, acrylic, ink or

etching to breathe life into this creation –

one thought at a time.

With the writing of the Finding God On The Train

Story,  I have journeyed through the spiritual

landscape offering my personal experience,

while working all along to relate it to New

Thought and the mystical wisdom studies

proffered through the ages.

 

New Thought proposes that within you, me,

each of us, even the not so good of us, is our

own internal divinity - or soul that reflects

our God nature, our potential, and our power. 

 

The Meditation Guidance below reflects

a response, I have transcribed, when asking 

for help understanding this topic, in hopes of 

revealing a fresh perspective. The guidance

opens with what might be considered an

excellent approach for pursuing any creative 

activity, where we are encouraged to stay

focused on clues and insights. 

 

But again, I am brought back to Heisenberg's 

Quantum concept of "Potentia" where infinite 

possibilities exist waiting for the collapsing 

of conscious focus. 

 

I am coming closer to understanding what 

our real divine potential may actually be as it

relates to our personal and God-consciousness:

if we were amenable to accepting it and 

harnessing its power. So I am still looking

at the possibilities. 

                    

OPEN TO THE POSSIBILITIES

Open yourself to the possibilities surrounding

you, be observant at this time for clues, for

insights that will spark your thinking and send

you in a creative direction. Allow this wisdom  

to move through you, as you determine the

next step.

 

Don’t be afraid to explore and add your opinions

and directions to the unfolding work. Peer inside

deeply and you may see the connection between

action and tangible creation. Surely, all of this

leads to your own God nature – your own unique

divinity and how it connects to all that exists

 

Do not underestimate the power of the mind and

this connection as a tool for progress, creation,

forming your vision into a reality. Possibly all

existence is but a thought in consciousness

waiting to be realized – focused on and brought

to life.

 

Possibly there are infinite possibilities at each

moment existing in potential, waiting for the

collapsing of conscious focus. Search for the

underpinnings, the order, the method God

uses to create with us – create your own

theory and possibly provide a new insight

into cocreation.

We are the physical missionaries of God

in this world, the keepers of existence

as we know and experience it now.

Through our purposeful, mindful action,

we are the creators of heaven, and I am

afraid, the stokers of a very intense and

fiery hell on earth.

 

We are the soft tentacles of God.

Let us, today, realize that we must hold

fast to the vision of a more worthy being,

molding this worthy vision in our hearts,

in our souls, and in our every single thought:

knowing that even one positive thought or

gesture will nudge all of us forward.

 

THE SOFT TENTACLES OF GOD

Reach out into life, into all existence,

molding it into a solid vision of your

aspirations, dreams, wonderings –

forming it with purpose and intention,

to coincide with your imaginings,

knowing that within this approach exists

the first cause of all thoughtful creation,

this is when and where “idea” solidifies,

finding structure and permanence.

 

Reach out, realizing you are the conduit

for divine inspiration, the soft tentacles

of God, stretching to push all existence

forward, to guide it towards a more worthy

being: grasp this challenge as you lay the

foundation for a more perfect existence,

where love, humility, hope and peace

form the basis for all action.

 

Reach out, sharing your clear vision,

perpetuating the message, fostering a sense

that our fate is only sealed by a limited,

caustic perspective, easily loosened by 

a unified reminder that we, each of us,

humanity as a whole holds the reins

to a more flourishing existence, through

our outstretched demands.

New Thought hinges on the actual creative

power of our thoughts, emotions, and mental

renderings. Not realizing this aspect of our

power has resulted in the negative creations

we all face in our tumultuous modern world.

 

Tending to our thoughts, no matter how

seemingly inconsequential, is the direction

of the note below, understanding the very

nature of thought to materialize, we are

directed to prune and weed our thoughts,

so only the healthy sprouts, those that

inspire, remain for the harvest.

 

As I write this, I am thinking about my

own thoughts lately, more muddled than

empowering, more confused than hopeful,

and I am thankful for this reminder. 

 

LIFE IN INCUBATION

In a moment of sincere reflection, often

we find ourselves adrift in a consciousness

of wakeful dreams, whose meanings

and messages often escape our grasp,

placeholders for our focused attention,

when we take hold of thoughts and

dreams alike, infusing our clear intent.

 

Today we realize every thought, vision,

dream, or fantasy is a potential reality

forming, life in incubation, an expression

of possibility - our role is to give meaning

and purpose to these drifting scenarios,

feeding each our preordained direction,

our will based desire, our greater intent.

 

Let us, today, fully grasp this creative power,

stoking it with positive concepts, affirmations,

visions of growth, becoming, and worthy

evolution - words and thoughts that inspire –

robust dreams of magnificent doings - oozing

with vitality, thriving with possibility,

glistening with joyous intent.

DO WE HAVE SPIRITUAL POWER?

ARE WE POWERFUL, POWERLESS,

OR SOMEWHERE IN-BETWEEN?

 

Let’s discuss the most popular spiritual power,

which is the ability to manifest, cocreate, or attract

into our lives and what we focus on mentally.

Best known as the Law Of  Attraction. 

 

My guidance often refers to this as the “Power

To Manifest.” To start off this discussion, I will

reach back and republish a few posts that cover

this ground fairly well.

 

If any of this is new to you, I suggest taking the

time to read Chapter Three of Finding God On

The Train titled, New Thought Spirituality

Yesterday and Today, for a quick primer,

available under the Book Chapters tab on 

the right-hand sidebar on the blog.  

                   

COCREATING WITH GOD                                  

A key concept in New Thought is the Law of Mind

Action, better known these days, as the Law Of

Attraction, which features our ability to cocreate

with God.  It took me some time to accept this

concept, that we could actually tap some innate

spiritual ability, and manifest what we hold in

consciousness, into the physical world, and that

this happened without much effort. 

 

Having seen this Law in action, I now believe

it is true but is dependent on our full belief

in the process. Since this has been an area that

I have struggled with, I have received much

guidance on how to make this a reality. In the 

Meditation Guidance below titled, The Power

To  Manifest, I am given a very clear look on 

how to approach the power of cocreation.

 

THE POWER TO MANIFEST

You have the power to manifest whatever

you need or want into your world – to

bring it to being – to bring to life your

visions, dreams, and fantasies through

the pure focusing of your mind.

Cocreating through your thoughts and 

connecting with God's energy – all of life –

abundant and authentic life awaits.

  

All that is needed is your belief and the

clarity of your thoughts and emotions. 

You must suspend doubt, fear, and

contradiction, and with all your mental

focus, visualize, and emotionally envision 

the action, person, place, event, circum-

stance, or thing you want to manifest

into this world.

  

The natural and spiritual law, through

right attraction will send out the signal

through all the spiritual network, and the

result will manifest – cocreated through

right desire and fixed focus. If you are 

aligned in thought and emotion – this

power creates an unstoppable signal

of vibrational desire and the result

will come.

  

You must always be ready to receive,

ready to receive your creation – your

mind creation from the network - in

order to receive the delivery. First,

believe, then with clear emotion and thought 

focus on the desired manifestation, 

and then prepare to receive.

 

Do not doubt, do not question, and do

not become impatient. Work today on

constant positive manifestation. It is

time to manifest the magnificence 

of your life.

I would like to focus the next few posts on the

Law of Attraction, or as my guidance calls it,

the Law of Mind Action, and how we are able

to concrete with God. Next, I will review my

guidance on how to develop the power of

belief, which is needed to be a successful

cocreator.

SPIRITUAL POWER?  Are we powerful,

powerless, or do we exist somewhere

in between? 

 

RESERVOIR OF POWER

Today let us grasp the significance

of our personal power, which is fused

in every cell and fiber of our being,

centered in our ability to believe

and conceive – strengthened by our

will and determination.

 

Let us understand and realize we

hold within a vast reservoir of

power – to see beyond sight, to

feel beyond touch – to transform

love and heal – to harness the

restoration of forgiveness.

 

As we progress through this day,

let us realize we hold the power

to mold it in our favor, to change

its course if required, or to accelerate

its hoped-for unfolding, knowing

when needed we may harness and

direct both the cause and effect.
