CREATE NEW REALITIES
NOVEMBER 22, 2011. People want to enlist in new realities; they don’t want to create them.
They want products of imagination; they don’t want to deploy their own imaginations.
People want to enter greater consciousness; they don’t want to create it.
This is the major confusion and the major retreat.
And in retreat, people begin to doubt themselves. They find sensations and emotions within that send messages of unworthiness and despair. They believe these signals.
Because if they ignored them, what would they do? They would, they think, experience a vacuum.
If you were reading a newspaper and the headline exclaimed, “Weather reports cause stock market to drop 400 points,” would you believe it? Well, the signals a person in retreat receives are about as credible.
The struggle to create realities isn’t a picnic. It isn’t the easiest thing in the world. But when you meet the challenge, you change your outlook on your own existence.
Feelings and emotions and thoughts and sensations that claim a person is lacking in some significant and lasting way—these are of minor concern against what a person can create.
These sensations are simply distractions from the main event.
The main event isn’t approached by buying a ticket and taking a seat in the front row of your own chronic feelings. That’s the sideshow.
The main event is the new reality you are going to choose to create.
The real meaning of mind control is: the power you exert on yourself to keep yourself from the main event.
Strength, resolve, determination, will, effort, work, and desire are what you need to create a new and better reality. If you have those, you’ll find the capacity. You’ll find the talent.
If you then bring imagination into the foreground, you’ll make a future that has some measure of brilliance.
At times, the effect of life and of our “inner world” seem to be a boxing-in, a restriction. This is only because we listen to and believe those messages and stop there. Notice that no creative power is necessary to attain the boxed-in feeling.
From the perspective of creating, though, all that is nonsense.
Because the road of creating is always open.
Always.
