None but ourselves...


There is a HUGE lesson I learned lately.

OK it's not new, it's been years that am realising that offcourse our outer world is only a reflection of our inner world, that our thoughts, believes and emotions shape our reality even more than our actions, that to change our life, we have to change our inner world. OK, all of that is great. Think of what you want, believe you can, feel good, take action and your objects of desire will manifest. It is true.

But now I realise something really very powerful as well, which complements the truth above. That we are absolutely free to choose any thoughts or believe or feeling that we want! That our thoughts or feelings need not be induced by our current reality, but are directly emanating from our Source. This is really huge, this is pure Creation! Let me explain.

In our lives, we usually look outside of ourselves. We pick up ideas from the outside world, those ideas become ours. We are told stories, they become the stories that circulate in our minds. We see things, and we take them as “reality”. When we experience pleasant things, we feel good. When we experience unpleasant things, we feel bad! In conclusion, what we think or feel is always shaped by outside reality.

But the Truth is it should and need not be this way!!! Reality that we experience is the result of what we have thought, felt and done in the past. It’s like a printout of our past inner life. A mirror. We are in the habit of watching “reality” and then thinking/feeling/believing based on this "reality". So we are always caught by our past creation of reality. But there is NO link between “reality” and our “inner world”!! Our "inner world" emanates from the Source, our "reality" emanates from our "inner world". Reality does NOT have power on our inner world, unless we do give it this power. But why should we? Let's claim our creative power back, and free our minds!

So, to illustrate in simple formulas:

Our habitual old pattern of thinking:

[Reality] ----> [ our thoughts/feelings/believes/actions] -----> [Reality]

In this pattern, Reality induces our thoughts/feelings/actions, and then these thoughts/feelings/actions will shape back Reality accordingly. As you see, we have no power here, it is Reality (our creation!!!) that has power on us!

The truth is:

[Source] -----> [ our thoughts/feelings/believes/actions] -----> [Reality]

In this pattern, our inner world emanates from the Source within ourselves and not from Reality. At any moment, we can go within, and CHOOSE what to think and feel so that we shape our life accordingly. Reality is just the manifestation, but the creative power is within!

Bottom line, we are absolutely FREE!

We are only caught in our minds because we link our mind to “reality”.

But if we understand that we are absolutely free to navigate in our minds in whichever way we like, that inner world emanates directly from the Source within us on which reality has no influence, then we can experience whatever we desire and shape our lives in whichever way we like.

Off course, what we want is to expand Life in ourselves. To feel the dance of life, to feel the love, to feel the peace, to feel the thrill of being alive. This need for life expansion gives birth to heart-felt desires within us and to soul longings. All we need to "do" is to surrender to Life's calling within us, our Source, and to Life's desires and longings that are born within us. Just allow them to be, and let our thoughts/feelings/actions be aligned with our Source, and "reality" will transform accordingly!

It's beautiful. This is pure freedom bestowed on us by our Creator. This is ultimate hope for ourselves and our race. This is indeed emancipation, redemption and salvation.

God I love You! :)
