Universal Truths

Imagining for Another

I was going to share about the Natural Law of Growth today and used my morning hour train ride to tell you how I've been applying this to manifest an "ideal" next step regarding my new corporate role. How quick an hour passes by these days. 

In the meantime however, a subject of far greater urgency came to the forefront and so the hour trip home, and some, have been dedicated to this matter of monumental importance.   

You see Gabriella Salmon desires a man! And she's written to the Universe to bring her love forth. That's right, my Clayton's Lil Sis (aka GabStar, and a host of other terms of endearment) assured me today, and no doubt others, in her Post "A Single Story" that she is soooo ready to receive a partner that to save her from bursting at the seams, I'm sharing instead about the importance of being able to "Imagine for One Another".

Neville Goddard, in and amongst a plethora of other outstanding new thought thinkers, who assures us that "Imagination is the only reality".  He goes so far as to say that it is the one and only Cause of Life and all it's presenting conditions.  He also tells us to give all our attention to the assumption that a thing is so, because all responsibility to make it so is completely removed from our shoulders. 

 

"You do not have to make a thing so, it IS so. You appropriate what is already fact, and walk in the assumption that it is, and in a way that you do not know, I do not know, no man knows, it becomes objectified in your world."

My partner and most beautiful friend, Anthony, Co-founder of Universal Truths, is a man who has elicited the best-worst and the best-of-my-best from me. He has also "Imagined for me" on many, many occasions.  Whenever I speak of desiring a better condition from something or someone, and knowing the importance of being able to move away from desiring and toward gratitude, he holds me in "ideal", he Imagines well for me and holds the feeling of the wish fulfilled for me; as I do for him.

On our own this is not always a simple task.  After all, we are emotionally invested in outcomes and are not always able to detach from the temporary conditions that show the absence of what we desire.  Having studied these concepts deeply, and tried and tested them with convincing results, I am going to join with the young Gabriella by Imagining "ideal" for her - and I invite you to do the same. 

We don't have to know someone personally to do this. It's as simple as thinking about, or imagining what it would be like when any person's deepest desire transpires. It's as simple as choosing a final scene of sorts that would indicate to you that a young, passionate woman has found a new love. 

In doing so there is also something in this for each of us...it's a great opportunity to turn our thoughts away from our own all consuming world for a moment and practice experiencing the joy, expectation and gratitude of "wishes fulfilled" through someone else.

We are told that as we sow, so shall we reap.  The Subconscious Mind doesn't recognise whether what we give our attention to is for us or for another; it simply attracts a vibrational match. So while we are assisting someone else get what they want we are also priming ourselves, vibrationally, to get what we want. 

For me this now means that every time I hear, see, think or speak of Gabbie, I will say "and her beautiful partner". I'm beginning now to imagine her smiling and laughing a lot. I'm visualising us speaking on the phone about him and being visited on the mountain by them. We'll read posts of their adventures together as they grow and become.

I believe there is no faster way to grow and become a greater version of ourselves then in relationship. And so, my desire for Gabbie is her desire for herself. I know and trust it's for her highest good, come what may.

I see you Gabbie, just as I see others and hold them in "ideal". I'm imagining well for you - oh she who is now metamorphosing from her steel shelled cacoon, to the essence of power and presence that can only be found through the display of femininity, gentleness and beauty. 

Rest well fair maiden for your knight in shining armor awaits to arouse you. [pun intended] :)

A Leap of Faith

In this play called Life, of which we are all actors, I am reminded by all the Greats to "begin with the end in mind." I am also reminded that this play is not just about the final scene, or destination, but about the journey.

It's no wonder, when I didn't know where I was going, that I continually felt as though I was going round in circles, lost, without direction and purpose.

Yesterday however, after more than eight years, I am once again an "employee" having been offered a full time, permanent role. Such an interesting concept and process that I'll share in more depth in upcoming posts.

To some, this new role play will seem like I have taken a backward step; to others perhaps it will seem like a lucky break; and to yet others it will seem like a range of bad and good, including neutral outcomes given the vast spectrum of perceptions from which we all view the world.

At one stage of my journey, in recent years, "faith" was described as having "honest belief". When I read this definition I found it both fascinating and liberating. Through my contemplation of it I began to experience that when I "honestly believed" in or about something I desired for my life, with it came the "faith" that the arrival of a particular experience or object is absolutely inevitable.

To me this next season is a "Leap of Faith" because while I don't feel that the details of this role are one hundred percent "ideal", I "honestly believe" I am in the right place, with the right people, doing the right thing. This is without doubt my perfect next step on my journey toward an interim, and therefore, my greater destination.

Not all that long ago, when this sense of "knowing" wasn't present neither was my faith in the possibility that I would achieve or experience favourable conditions of any real significance.

I knew little about setting goals and nothing of the satisfaction experienced in achieving them. Instead I lived life trying to avoid more disappointment.

Now I know that without goals, without clear DERs (Desired End Results) for every area of my life, it is impossible to experience the peace, joy, contentment, and often exhilaration that I now experience in honestly believing in the inevitable appearance of my desires in this three dimensional existence of ours.

It was Troward or Holliwell or perhaps Neville that wrote, "for a thing to be true, there are facts to be had." To my delight, there are many facts that can be found in the all encompassing Law of Spirit; making it as reliable as the sciences, music and mathematics.

So from having little to no DERs for my life, I have since selected and differentiated from the buffet that is available to me. I observed and continue to observe what I was, did, and had, with who and what I now desire to be, do and have.

To get the cogs of faith or honest belief in motion, that something or someone is going to manifest in the right and perfect time, I now start with the end in mind. I take time to give Life to my successes (DERs), the successes of my beautiful "everything" Anthony, those nearest and dearest, the planet, and this new relationship/partnership often; and I will continue to hold these "ideals" until their inevitable arrival, and some...

During this journey I began to honestly believe that there was a power greater than me governing my existence, I began to honestly believe that there was more I wanted and needed to know about myself and my potential, I began to honestly believe that I wasn't too late, too old, too fat, too unattractive, too unlovable, too poor, too unwell, too busy or too anything to honestly believe that I could, from the seemingly destitute places I have stood, to contemplate a new and exhilarating destination.

If it seems like I have taken another Leap of Faith, Truth is I have and I am right on track.

Faith is teaching me more and more everyday that through the correct planning, assessment of how I am tracking, the collection of more information when I find myself in unfamiliar territory, and then heading in the direction that looks and feels right to me, I can and will "without doubt" and "with absolute faith" assist others get what they desire while I get what I desire.

Today I wish you faith, a kind of honest belief that whatever your current undesirable conditions present, that they are temporary. As you honestly believe something else is possible, these too shall pass and be replaced with more desirable conditions in a heart beat, or a life time, depending on the concepts and results I'll continue to share and the reality of natural laws akin to the topic up next, the natural "Law of Growth".

Turning the mundane into the magical

Administration is my professional game. It's where I started my professional career in 1987 and something that has remained my career focus for in excess of 25 years.

Having spent five years full time and a portion of everyday since, another two years so far, dedicated to the study and implementation of human potential and business success, administration was the last role I thought I would return to during or following the attainment of such powerful, life altering information and experiences. Yet...at this very moment...I am in discussion regarding a permanent role as an executive assistant to a senior group executive within the banking and finance sector.

Why is it happening this way? Well, I believe it's due to two fundamental concepts; one being that 'how' is not my responsibility, and the other is due to the natural Law of Growth - which I've touched on in earlier posts and will surely touch on again in future ones.

Over the years I have gained an understanding of what I believe is "my higher purpose for being here", and this has without doubt been key to experiencing more and more moments of peace, contentment and joy in my journey to 'evolve' my body, mind and soul. Prior to this recognition, sustainability of these desirable states of consciousness were few and far between, regardless of what I was doing.

Now, to the best of my ability, I spend as many moments of my day in recognition that more important than what I'm doing is the way I'm doing it, aka who I Am being. By this I mean awareness on the thoughts I'm having, what I'm feeling, the relationships I'm developing, and the way I move around etc. This along with the firm belief that these things are taking me closer and closer, moment by moment, thought by thought, word by word, and step by step towards yet a higher concept of myself, is absolutely what turns the ordinary into the extraordinary and the mundane into the magical for me on a daily and weekly basis.

With the understanding that my greatest desires are attained not through what I am doing, but rather through who I am being, I practice being a Company Culture Change Agent everyday now - and have been for the past nine weeks. A daily and weekly focus on an interim professional goal towards my bigger, breathtaking, most inspirational goal for which I continue to be on this planet and in this realm to experience.

For the most part I'm absolutely loving what I'm doing because of who it gives me the opportunity to be and where I believe it is taking me. In regards to those not so enjoyable moments...well, I use them as part of my contextual field from which to reflect and revise using our Universal Truths - Awareness + 1, 2, 3 process. By doing so, I believe I am continually transmuting my undesirable conditions and experiences into my future extraordinary and magical moments of now.

until next time...

Start now! Start with what you've got!

For a couple of years I have had the urge to write a 'live' book. By 'live' I mean a book that is about now, a book that grows and transforms as I do.

Each time I commence such writings, and commence I have on at least three other occasions, I reach a point and hit pause. I've done this for many reasons along the way, some reasons are practical while others are emotional. Some are made through conscious awareness while others, because I am unable to define them by words, are made through my unconscious or sub-conscious awareness, the realm of feeling, the realm which for me sometimes takes patience to comprehend and interpret consciously.

I have a Clayton's* little sister who is well into her journey of self-discovery. She is into her fifth day of a 100 day commitment to write. The catalyst, on this occasion, the 'transitioning' of an unfamiliar biological parent from this dimension to another. A process known by many as 'death'.

Her story has moved me in many ways...not just by the obvious impact this most recent event is having in her life, but by her comments in her most recent blog, "She who has faith the size of a mustard seed.", who, like me, is "yearning to read deeply personal accounts of monumental change as it is happening."

My truth says that we are all always in a state of flux/transformation/evolution, and I have felt that having this information "live" and in the "now" would be tremendously useful. I am surrounded by wonderful individuals undergoing a host of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual transformation currently and am always looking for a manner to communicate with them and be of further assistance.

On occasions, I too have been yearning such insight into the 'how' and 'what' someone having a spiritual awakening actually experiences on a day-to-day, week-to-week type basis. How do they apply what they know when the going gets 'tough'? Is it truly possible to grow easily and elegantly and enjoy rapid lasting change? And while there are no doubt many individuals already sharing their journey in their own way, my desire is to be part of the co-creation of a community of individuals who have a close or cosmic connection with others in that community who can all grow together.

While this journey is different for every single traveller, what is the same I believe is the foundation of Truth that emerges. What differs most significantly I believe, and the part that is most exquisite and unique, is our interpretation and application of this Truth.

In my recognition of my Lil Sister, Gabriella Salmon's, invitation to join her in capturing our journeys, I kept hearing the words which have become familiar to me over the years and they are to "Start now! Start with what you've got!" From a practical sense this means no longer waiting for an iPad to arrive to blog, but using my phone instead. It means that in this season of my life I do not have extended periods of time to revise, edit, rework and thoroughly check my spelling and grammar, so at times it will be raw and unpolished. From an emotional sense it means exposing those moments when I am not living in a state of bliss, however it's also being OK with a personality I have put much time and effort into planning and designing as I have come to deeply understand and appreciate the influence my thoughts, words, feelings and actions have on my outcomes. I do have a positive spin on most experiences that I am manifesting in my life, and I am tweaking it along the way as I continually observe myself getting what I desire and I getting things I don't.

So, here I go! Like her, like everyone, I am doing the best I can with the information I have. Like her I yearn to be a demonstration of how the seemingly average, which none of us are and yet our conditioning and daily experiences have a tendency to reiterate, can Live a Life I Love. Like her, I'm starting now and starting with what I've got...body, mind and soul.

until next time...

* Claytons is the brand name of a non-alcoholic, non-carbonated beverage coloured and packaged to resemble bottled whisky. It was the subject of a major marketing campaign in Australia and New Zealand in the 1970s and 1980s, promoting it as "the drink you have when you're not having a drink".  Therefore, Gabriella is the little sister I have when I don't really have a little sister, not the biological kind anyway (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claytons)
