Two key things that are necessary ingredients to tune in effectively and co-create with source are the surrendering of the ego’s desires to the will of the Source and removal of fear from your mental outlook. The ego wants the human to have full control and believes the body is completely separate from all others. It was originally intended to protect the soul while in bodily form so that it could experience material life and co-create with Source and not get injured in the process. But over time, it has magnified itself to want to be in charge, to be the boss. It’s as if one day you decided at work to tell your manager you had decided no longer to take his or her direction and would be managing yourself from now on. Supposing you were allowed to do this, you could still be able to function, but you wouldn’t have the critical direction and coordination of your work from your manager. You would also lack feedback on your work product. You could still interact with others and get things done, but you would be out of “synch” with the overall organization in many ways. That’s what its like to be dis-connected from Source Energy and Divine Will or Direction.
As we’ve seen in previous posts, this dis-connection has implications for the health of the human body in all forms – physically and mentally – and for our overall spiritual health, sense of purpose, and life direction. We need only look around at every-day 21st century life to realize we have a lot of people running around “open-loop” causing much harm to themselves, each other, and the planet as a result.
The aspect of fear comes into play because of our inherent desire to be in control. This is coupled with the fact that we are highly motivated to put our focus outside of ourselves and on things that our five senses can pick up. If we can’t see it or hear it, then it’s not there. That’s where Faith comes in. But we don’t need to have blind faith.By going inwards through meditation and mindfulness we can learn to slowly connect with our inner energetic states and start establishing emotional connections to Source Energy. This is done through focusing on love via our heart energy center (the two-way communication link or carrier frequency to Source). Fear is the opposite of love, so trying to connect to Source while in a fearful state is like hanging up the phone and then trying to talk.
Once we start moving to a more loving state of being, we can establish a connection that gives us feedback and signals that let us know the Source is there and that it’s more tangible than we realize. As we strengthen the connection, clues start to appear in our physical reality – chance meetings, synchronicities, and small wins and “mini-miracles” come our way. The Source will attempt to assure us that it’s there and ready for the creative partnership to begin in earnest.
Source Energy as your Personal GPS
Once we decide to “re-connect” with Source Energy and accept Divine Will as our guide, then we can start to receive divine guidance or the “What to Do” and then use all of mental and physical faculties at our disposal for the “How to Do” or implementation and creation of that desire. In this sense, the left brain’s rational, linear processing and right brain’s holistic and and big picture thinking work together to create a balanced output in our physical reality. If we sacrifice one side for the other, we produce non-optimized solutions. Either way, there are usually a large range of possibilities on how to implement an idea or concept and in that way a person has great “creative control” in their lives though they are taking guidance from Divine Consciousness. We needn’t fear being a slave to some cosmic master, rather it can be extremely empowering to feel that we have certainty on the right thing to do and can confidently go forward and implement in the manner most desirable to us. We welcome the guidance of the “Great Conductor” and play our part in the “Universal Orchestra”.
But I also don’t think the “What to Do” is a solely one-way street. Sometimes you can “improvise” the part your playing as someone would do playing in a jazz band. Improvising around a unified theme is common. What allows for this is accessing Universal Consciousness (the big data base in the sky). It has an infinite set of possibilities that can be accessed. In this regard, you may have your “key objectives” that the Source has identified for you to achieve for your individual development and for contribution to the evolution of society, but there are also opportunities for exploration on other topics as well. Anyone can tap into the big data base and pull down ideas. People in fact do this simultaneously around the world. That’s why in history, we have witnessed the same thing being invented in two or three different locations at the same time. The key point is that everything is up there, good and bad, that humans can do. Therefore, it takes individual discernment and alignment with Source Energy and the will to know what is helpful to all of humanity and what is harmful. Just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should do it.
But you may be wondering, so how do I really “know” what Source wants me to do. Is there going to be an email or text message? Hmmm, no. This is where the health of your human energy field is so important – the body (emotional, physical, and mental) is the receiver of the signal. If that’s fine-tuned, then you’re more likely to receive clearly. With that box checked off, the next key thing is to start asking questions. That’s how the free will system is set up – it’s up to you to ask for guidance and help. Just as you would ask your boss at work, “hey, what should I be working on next?” – you can do the same with Source. You won’t get an email or text, but you will get direction – either via some type of energetic feeling in your body, an “instinct” or “gut reaction”, or some people even start to hear a small or faint voice that provides the direction.
You will often hear people say, “I really should have followed my instincts on that one…”. The Source is beaming information and guidance 24/7 and usually your fist instinct will come in clearly and be correct especially if you develop the ability to lower your mental noise, eliminate fear and silence the ego. Here is one way to create a system to understand the divine Source Signal that author and psychotherapist Yvonne Oswald presents in her wonderful book, Every Word has Power:
The inner you, your unconscious mind, which where these answers come from, ‘knows’ much better than your conscious mind the state of the universe as it applies to your needs (not desires), because it has your best interests at heart. It, along with every one of the fifty to one hundred trillion cells in your body, is eagerly listening to your instructions at this moment. You can test the method to find out how much you are in touch with the inner you by simply stating a true or untrue statement and asking yourself what number between one and ten comes up. So, for me: ‘My name is Jim: zero out of ten. My name is Yvonne: ten of ten”. Do the One-to-Ten decision making with simple daily decisions at first , such as “How good it for me to have pasta tonight?” The more quickly you can come with an answer, the more you can trust it. The one thing to remember is this: If the number you come up with is five or below, the answer is No. ‘How good is it for me to…’? is a far better question to ask that “Do I want to …?” Yes, you may want to marry Jim (or Marry), but would it be good for you? That might be an entirely different matter. How you ask is extremely important for clear decision making.
My personal GPS signal is an energy surge that runs from my heart region up through my neck and into my head. When I ask a question and get a positive answer the surge moves in that direction. When the answer is no, then there is no surge and sometimes a muted feeling near the heart energy center. The signals vary from person to person, so experiment with Yvonne’s approach and also see if you notice some type of energetic body signal also. Give it some time, it takes a while to tune in. And, if you don’t get a clear signal, that may be an indication that you need to do work first on optimizing your energy field, lowering your mental noise, and lowering fear.
*Is there a way to know that you are actually connected to source and not something else? Yes. If what you are picking up as a signal and translating into action is based on love and doing things for others in a loving way that leads to unity and not separation, in all aspects of your life, then you’re locked into true Source Energy . Othwerise, you are distorting the signal and the ego is actually in charge. And in some cases it is posing as the Source (when religious extremists for example say their actions are based on god’s will). Anything that is based on fear – hate, violence, anger, unkindness – and leads to separation between people versus unity andoneness, is the opposite of love and therefore the opposite of Source. And, responding to distortions of Source with your own distortions – violence against violence, hate against hate, unkindness repaid with unkindness, and amplifying the separation or differences between people – is just amplifying the disconnection from Source Energy. The non-violent efforts of Gandhi, King, and Mandella all showed us how to do it correctly. Certainly, sometimes the threat is too dire and immediate and just as you need some times to take care of a serious illness with drugs or surgery before you can get to solving the underlying long-term cause, you may also need to take more serious actions on other fronts. But it has too be the last resort, not the first or second resort…
Manifesting – the Power of Co-Creation with Source Energy
If Source Energy creates everything, and it’s the only “real” thing that exists, then the more you are tapping into it instead of something that is not real (your ego-driven thoughts that are orthogonal to Source) the more powerfully you will be able to create and manifest your physical reality. This is what often is missing in most guidance on manifesting and the Law of Attraction – the need to optimize the physical and mental connection to divine Source Energy first and then intending with love and the best interests of everyone (not just yourself). This is why everyone who intends a Ferrari doesn’t end up getting one… [there is a group called the Intenders of the Highest Good who show how to do it correctly – their website and books by founder Tony Burroughs are very good.]
Manifesting with Source is about aligning with Divine Consciousness and not the ego. I’ll leave with you with a beautiful statement on what that means in practice from UK based spiritual teacher Chris Bourne:
It is not just our thoughts that create our reality, it would be more accurate to say our entire consciousness creates it – the sum total of what we are being and expressing through ALL our bodily vehicles of expression. 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 generated from our upbringing. 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, reintegrate it fully into our lives and 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. We may call this “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. The act of creating is the act of allowing. In looking within, we see past the distortions of the ego to find what is meant to be. When we know what is meant to be, we become as one with the divine will… the inner most longing of our highest self; we become an open channel and infinite potential is manifested through us, and through us, the infinite cycle is complete.
