Co-creating in the Presence with Spiritual Enlightenment and Divine Productivity Catapults You into Your Life Purpose

In every moment there is a gift.  Each gift expands our opportunity to utilize our infinite potential for ever-increasing good, creating more life, and manifesting our heart’s desires.  For this reason we say the present is a gift because we know that to be in the present moment is to be in the Presence of God, the ALL in All.

When we become more aware in the present moment, we increase and raise our consciousness about our infinite potential.  This powerful awareness causes our minds and hearts to open to spiritual enlightenment and spiritual liberation.

As a result, we experience divine productivity.  Divine productivity is the ability to create more and manifest more in what seems to be a shorter amount of time.  It is a mystical experience when you can see yourself do more and accomplish more in what seems to be a shorter span of time.  Most importantly you can feel your soul being catapulted into your life purpose. 

And those of us on the path of enlightenment know that to be catapulted into your life’s purpose draws the enjoyable energies joy, excitement, and inspiration to life.  These enjoyable energies are the result of well-being, happiness, and peace which attracts wealth, success, and prosperity in our lives.  This attraction become inevitable because it is governed by all principle associated with the law of attraction. 

How is this possible?  How is it possible that being present moment aware with spiritual enlightenment can lead to divine productivity?  Well, the explore this wonder and gift, lets take a deeper look at what we experience when we are just going through the motions in life. 

Have you ever been so involved in the day to day grind and completely lost touch with daily meditation, prayer, visualization, journaling, and doing what we call at Blue Lotus Living Your Spiritual Work?  Did it seem as if the days were flying by and you never had time to complete anything?  This is what happens when you are going through the motions in life.  The hours slip away, the days pass by so swiftly, and it seems as if you are only living for that long nap you take on the weekends or your next day off from work. 

Co-creating in the presence or in the present moment with the sharpened awareness developed through spiritual enlightenment is much different.  Co-creating in the presence allows you to experience divine productivity.  When you experience divine productivity, you are experiencing “all things working together for your good.”  You are experiencing those wonderful synchronicities because you are purpose-centered.  As you co-create in the presence, you are in tune with your inner-being the very essence of your soul and operating in your life purpose. 

This is a completely different realm of being.  In this state of being, you are living your infinite potential and you are tapping into infinite possibilities where you draw to you by way of the law of attraction the best results ever.  Manifestation happens much faster with divine productivity.  Dreams actualize much more accurately with divine productivity. Your life purpose becomes clearer and your vision becomes certain with divine productivity.  And most importantly, you take the struggle out of living, manifesting, and actualizing who you really are in your reality with divine productivity. 

So, now, with this knowledge and wisdom, you can see that the present is a gift.  You can see that remaining present moment aware is the key to co-creating the life you really want to live with our abundant and loving universe.  God, the Source of All Creation, the ALL in All, has not restrained one good thing from you.  Your true desires can manifest in your reality if you remain in the Presence. Your gift is here and now.

Deeply Exploring The Law of Attraction – Change your Vibration, Change Your Thoughts, and Attract Well-being and Harmony

The Law of Attraction can be summed up very easily by saying the conditions of your reality are drawn to you according to your state. That would be easy, but then it leaves the belief floating in our consciousness that somehow we are our thoughts.

Thoughts and thought forms are citizens of the mental plane and while the “All is mind. The Universe is Mental” as it states in the Kybalion, we are still not our thoughts. As eternal and Divine beings, we could not be defined so simply.

To truly understand this, we have to deeply explore the Law of Attraction from a much more metaphysical perspective. Now, in this day and age as we study more about metaphysics, metaphysical science, quantum physics, and ontology, it is not a popular thing to tell folks that you are not your thoughts. Many among us on the path of enlightenment who have bravely said the words “you are not your thoughts” have been met with much criticism.

To this matter, let’s give some clarity. We are not a sum total of our thoughts, but the conditions we manifest through us is a result of our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, actions, and attitudes. Even more boldly, one can be sure that you are not your actions.

However, we are Divine Beings. As Divine Beings created in the image and likeness of God, we have the ability to create and manifest things, situations, and conditions. And we create in partnership with our loving and abundant universe as channels, conduits, and conductors of energy. We manifest these things by channeling thoughts, feelings, beliefs, actions, and attitudes and these continual thoughts become thought forms which form and cause the things we have in our life.

In other words, we channel thoughts and thought forms according to our vibration. It is often taught to us in a backwards kind of way. We are erroneously taught that our vibration is the result of our thoughts but our thoughts are the result of our vibration. Our vibration is the result of the energy around us which we have channel through us (intentionally or unintentionally). This energy around us can be seen as our environment. In our environment are images and people. As we go through life, if we are not centered in our own intentions, then we are influenced by the energy emanated from people around us, things and images we see, and words and expressions we hear. This influence (which influence means internal flow) becomes our state of being.

For those in fields such as substance abuse treatment and other addictions, the first thing they teach their clients is “change your environment.” This often times includes changing your friends, where you live, where you hang out, or even the things you watch on television and listen to on the radio. For example, it is not a good idea for a recovering alcoholic to hang out at the bar every night with the same friends he or she hung out with before they began the recovery process. It is not a good idea for a sex addict to watch pornographic images or have a subscription to penthouse magazine. It is not a good idea for a food addict to go to All-you-can-eat buffets.

Your influences can affect your vibration and cause you to draw by way of the Law of Attraction, thoughts and thought forms from the mental plane which match your vibration. And since energy follows thought, these thoughts become things.

So as one on the path of enlightenment boldly states “you are not your thoughts”, think about this for a moment…Remember all the times you really no longer wanted to think negative or non-productive thoughts. For instance, you have said to yourself, “I don’t want to think about “the lack of money” all the time, I want to stop thinking that way. You ask yourself, “why can’t I think about abundance and prosperity instead of what I don’t have?”

And here’s the honest truth, it is your vibration. Until your transform your vibration, you will continue to draw the thoughts and thought forms which match your vibration. To change your vibration, you must align your physical and mental state with that which you desire to create in your life. The greatest thing we can create in our life is the flow of love, well-being, and harmony.

This is accomplished through meditation, holistic, natural, and conscious eating, as well as what we allow to entire our eye and ear gates. This includes the images we see in our environment and what we listen to and hear. To this effect, if we transform what we allow to affect our state of being, then we can transform the conditions in our life. As we grow on the path of enlightenment, we will discover the truth of the Law of Mentalism and the process of mental transmutation which contends that it is our state which affects our conditions not our conditions which affect our states.

With this wisdom, we will find that if we want to transform our reality and live according to that which allows us to be the happiness we are searching for and be the miracle others are searching for then we have to transform our state of being.

We can do, be, and have all we desire. We can transform our thinking, but we must begin with our state.

Until next time, Live Well, Live Wise, Live Wealthy and let the Creative Spirit move you.

The Universal And Spiritual Law of Radiation

We identify the Universal and Spiritual Law of  Radiation as a law significant to spiritual transformation.  The Law of Radiation is a practical law; meaning, it is not only a “that is” law, but a law which can be practiced.  The Law of radiation is defined as follows:

The Universal and Spiritual Law of Radiation is expression of Divine Activity. Understanding radiation and emanation conditions, the law of radiation asserts that one emanates or radiates according to one’s vibration.  As such, one’s approach to reality and ability to affect reality is determined by one’s spiritual evolution. The law is universal.  It is the outer effect produced by all forms in all kingdoms when their internal activity has reached such a stage of vibratory activity that the confining walls of the form no longer form a prison, but permit the liberation of the subjective essence. From a cosmic, spiritual, divine, and universal perspective, liberation means the ability of any conscious atom to pass out of one sphere of energized influence into another of a higher vibration of a larger and wider expanse of conscious realization.  This is the basis of all true and authentic evolution and transformation.

Science and Spirituality – Effective Spiritual and Personal Development Includes the Study of Metaphysics and Spiritual Intelligence

Now, more than ever, many people realize that there can be no true personal development or self development without spiritual development. As such, the sciences of metaphysics and spiritual intelligence as fields of study are the principle sciences which must be studied in order to insure our success in spiritual and personal development.

Not only has spirituality been taken out of personal development, but spirituality has been separated from sciences such as physics, medicine, health, astronomy, chemistry, and other modern sciences. If we are to assure our development, how can we expand and progress if we ignore the relationship and connection between science and spirituality.

For example, many modern day scientists—specifically physicists believe that the universal and spiritual laws associated with Metaphysics and Spiritual Intelligence are in no way provable therefore the fields of Metaphysics and Spiritual Intelligence are not exact sciences. Thus, many modern day scientists disregard “paranormal experiences” and dismiss them as “coincidences” or psychotic episodes.

However, very much to the contrary, those of us on the path of enlightenment know that spiritual, universal, and cosmic laws are provable and are the very same laws of physics and other modern day sciences. In fact, we are most certain that many of the modern day sciences would not exist had it not been for those who were brave enough to study metaphysics and spiritual intelligence.

Accordingly, the Chemist who studies chemistry is still studying the laws of alchemy even as he or she disregards the Spiritual Intelligence associated with the knowledge and wisdom of chemistry. The Physicist who studies physics is still studying the laws of metaphysics even as he or she disregards the Spiritual Intelligence associated with the knowledge and wisdom of metaphysics. The same is true of earth science as it relates to earth magic, herbology as it relates to medicine, and astronomy as it relates to astrology. And the same is most definitely true as it relates sp to personal development and spiritual development.

As New Though pioneer Thomas Troward stated we must get “into the spirit of the thing” in order to know how it works. It is the separation between Spirituality and Science which has led to our inability to cure diseases of the body and the mind. For as we dig deeper and get into the spirit of a thing, we will learn there is a spiritual answer to every mental or physical problem.

If we want to be effective in our spiritual and personal development, we must study the principles, laws, and technologies related to metaphysics and spiritual intelligence. Studying these fields will not only assure that we grow in our spiritual and personal development, but also assure that we accomplish more and advance more in technology, medicine, health, and economics.

We have to be bold enough to ask ourselves…”What is science without spirituality?” If we take the time to look beyond the physical, perhaps we will discover more.

Until next time, remember to live well, live wise, live wealthy, and let the Creative Spirit move you.

Art and Creative Expression – Learning More About Co-creating Our Reality and Manifestation

Soulful Creative Expression

Furthermore, I discovered that Performance Artists, Writers, and Poets need an outlet like they need to breathe. Without expression, we feel as if someone has cut off our oxygen supply. If you have ever experienced this, you know that the impulse to create is a very painful thing to suppr

ess. The pain is the result of diminishing our true and authentic self. However, as Source Energy, The ALL, All-that-is, The Most High, God continues to speak to and through our Soul about who we really are, we have two choices either we choose to be a co-creator or perpetuate the illusion.

What I and many others on the Path of Enlightenment have rediscovered is that “art demonstrates life.” Art proves that something can come from no-”thing”-ness–the Aum or Amen state. Through art forms such as performance art, literature, poetry, visual arts (and many other art forms),  we learn more about the creative process. We utilize performance art, literature, poetry, visual arts and other art forms as our laboratories to experiment in increasing our skills and power as a co-creator.

Think about it for a moment! These outlets of artistic and creative expressions sharpen our skills as co-creators and we become more effective at co-creating our reality. These art forms increase our faith in infinite possibilities and our faith in the evolution of our enlightenment. When these art forms are used to discover more about ourselves and our role as co-creators, they empower us and inspire those who participate in the experience with us.

Here at Blue Lotus Living, we have always said that inspiration is perpetual.  When we commit to conscious creative art or being a conscious creative artist, we inspiring others to inspire others.  As we look closely at our work as artists, that’s really what we desire.  We want our work to move others.  And when people are moved, they create also. 

Accordingly, through art and creativity we are always expressing our connection to Source Energy. That connection emits through our work as artist.  In fact, our art is manifestation of our connection to Source Energy or the Creator of All-that-is.

Studying Art increases our creative expression and empowers us As we Co-create Our Reality

Yes, it is true that art sharpens our skills as co-creators, for example, in Performance Arts you sharpen your skills in:

• Creative Visualization
• Imagination
• Empathetic Intuition
• Neuro-linguistic Programming
• Autosuggestion
• Visioning
• Meditation

For example, in performance arts, you utilize these skills to convey the story, the character, the song, or the dance.  It takes creative visualization to imagine some scenery that may not be there or to see yourself as another person.  Similarly, in the study of Literature and Poetry, Expressionism literature and poetry ( particularly Neo-Expressionism), you develop your skills in:

• Creative Visualization
• Imagination
• Empathetic Intuition
• Journaling
• Visioning
• Meditation

The connection in all this is simple.  You can learn the science of life and the cosmos, which are Metaphysical Science, Yoga Science, and the Science of Well-being, but in higher order stages of learning, we must be able to apply and evaluate what we have learned in order to really “know it.”  By studying Performance Arts, Literature, and Poetry, we learn more about our true and authentic self.  This knowledge makes us more powerful co-creators.

As we combine this with learning the Sciences of Life and the Cosmos, we are able to recover or rediscover the truth while becoming very powerful co-creators who are manifesting the life we want to live.  When we become powerful co-creators and understand our role in the continuum by focusing on the whole and the collective, we become Visionaries.

As Visionaries, we are successful because of our intuitive ability to see, catch, and magnify the vision. Visionaries understand how to move with the Creative Spirit.  Visionaries understand and know that the Creative Spirit has forming power.  This trust and faith prompts the Visionary to take inspired action in order to manifest the vision. 

Artistic Expression Helps Visionaries Evolve on the Path of Enlightenment

When we become visionaries, we understand that we are to never stop growing, evolving and becoming more.  Visionaries understand the importance of progressing in their enlightenment or evolving in their enlightenment.  This is what makes a Visionary prosperous, successful, wealthy, and yes rich.  More resources become available to the Visionary because of his or her progression. 

After years in Success Coaching and Success Philosophy, I got my AHA moment, when I returned to the study and practice of Performance Arts, Literature, and Poetry.  I remembered the person I was when I was expressing my gifts and talents through these art forms.  I was much more empowered.  Returning to these art forms have restored my connection to the voice of my Soul and sharpened my skills as a co-creator.

With Blue Lotus Living, I heard the call from the unformed stuff of the universe seeking to create a success system that will allow others this same expression, study, and evolution in their enlightenment.  I know it will be a remarkably rewarding journey for all those folks who become a part of the Blue Lotus Living family.

In order for us to restore our true and authentic self, returning to creative expression is pertinent.  However, equally important is learning how to align with Universal, Cosmic, and Spiritual Laws that govern our universe.  Aligning with these laws creates harmony while creative expression enhances our well-being.  And well-being is what holds our universe together in harmony and in peace.

Until next time, remember to express yourself and let the Creative Spirit move you.

A Kombucha at Lunch, Realizing Inspiration Is From Within, and I am One with My Lucky Bamboo

I sat at my desk staring at my lucky bamboo plant.  It whispers, “we are one.” 

I shake my head thinking to myself, “Either I am sleepy, I am asleep, or I am surely tripping off that Kombucha I guzzled down at lunch.”

I pick up my pen and a life lesson from my Oracle Within  begins…

We do live life from the inside out.  Inspiration is something which moves from within us.  And we all want to be inspired, motivated, moved, and quickened in life.  Accordingly, metaphysics, personal development, metaphysical philosophy, and true spirituality all teach us that everything in our reality right now came from “within” us.  This confirms that my reality, your reality, “his” reality, “her” reality…are woven into each other’s varying versions of  one true and authentic reality and this makes us all one. 

Realizing this “oneness” and accepting this into our own personal consciousness allows us to co-exist in peace and harmony even as individuals.  Resisting this truth about reality and struggling against it by attempting to manipulate others causes conflict, war, and turmoil. 

We must seek to co-create our reality instead of trying to manipulate others.  In order to let go of our manipulations we must let go of the ego.  Furthermore in letting go, we must accept that we are all co-creators with this magnificent universe and that this universe is working through us to expand life.  We exist with and in a powerful Creative Force, which is infinite intelligence and orchestrates all things with infinite organizing power in wonderful melodious synchronicities. 

In sync with this melody of life, the varying life forms we see in nature and in each other is a result of the creativity of this Divine and powerful life-giving force in all of us.  While this may sound more mystic than scientific, it is this invisible force which is the source of animation for all life we see and experience. 

This power, this life-giving force is as real as the carbon dioxide I exhale as my lucky bamboo plant inhales it.  It is oneness.  It is holistic—holy.  It is pure consciousness.  It is the basis of all true spirituality.  And even as our own rhythms of life change and transform from one state to another state, from one cycle to the next cycle, and one form to another form; it is this cosmic rhythm of oneness…holiness…holism held together by an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, all-organized force of life which is the true reality.  And we must know It.  We must become fully aware of It as powerful co-creators.

Time cannot destroy this power for it is ever-present and defies time.  It has no boundaries for it is always growing and become more.  Now do we see through Its power just how powerful we are created to be? Through the awareness of this power, we having a seed of it as our own life-force should realize that as this power works through us and in us as “willing vessels”, we are the vehicles for this powerful force in our reality.  This means time cannot destroy us and we have no boundaries or limits in life. 

With this loving, mystical power, are you moved to become more?  Are you inspired and motivated? What do you choose to co-create in your reality?

Now, I put down my pen and ponder the questions.  I look to my lucky bamboo plant again, very apologetically, “sorry friend, you were right,” I whispered.  I had been told that if we talk to our plants they will grow and remain lively.  No one ever told me that plants would talk back and we would grow too.

Inspirational Quote – Love is the Antidote for Fear

“To work in a healthy way with fear, one must live in close, conscious connection with soul life and develop spirituality that is an ordinary part of life.  Love is the antidote to fear.”

                                                                               –Robert Sardell

The basis of all spirituality and all spiritual work (meditation, prayer, yoga, visualizations, visioning, journaling…) is love.  We all have had fears and the only way to overcome any fear is with the power of love.  Love is spiritual liberation for the soul.  We do not have to allow fear to overtake us and trap us into states of non-productivity. 

Yes, love is the antidote to fear.  Fear can cause us to stall and it steals our inspiration and motivation to move forward in life.  And in life, if we are not moving forward, we are moving backwards.  This process of moving backwards is call regression and regression depletes the value of our lives.    

However, with love as an antidote, we can continue to move forward as we are propelled into purpose.  With love as an antidote, we can overcome fear because love is the fuel of the Creative Spirit and when there is unconditional love in the Presence, then the Creative Spirit will move and fear can’t stop it. 

Fear stalls us through complacency and procrastination; however, when the Creative Spirit inspires us (moves through us); then the strongholds of complacency and procrastination are diminished.  With this knowledge, we must now understand the power of love and the ability of love to transform our lives.  As co-creators developing our wealth consciousness and visionary consciousness, we know that it is unconditional love which is the motivation and inspiration we need to manifest our dreams and actualize our vision of purpose in life. 

Therefore, don’t allow fear and complacency to rob you of the joy, elation, ecstasy and inspiration to create as you live your life.  Allow yourself to imagine and visualize the life you want to live. And most importantly, live to love so that as you imagine and visualize the life you want to live, the Creative Spirit with its forming power will move and transform your life to align with your vision.

Inspirational Quote – The Power of Desire and Hope

“The secret of life is the desire to attain something; the absence of this makes life useless. Hope is the sustenance of life; hope comes from the desire of attaining something. Therefore this desire is in itself a very great power.”

                                                                                    –Hazrat Inayat Khan

Our true desires should not be taken lightly.  Our true desires are the secret to life And we must be able to distinguish between our true desires and false desires.  This feeling we get inside of us when we are aware of our true desires often times can’t be explained to others.  This feeling is stirring of hope—the inspiration we need to stay motivated in life.  To “attain” on the path of enlightenment and in increasing our Visionary Consciousness is the art and science of being and becoming.  Attainment is not about the acquisition of things, but rather, attainment is the directing of thought and energy to fulfill the true desires of the heart. The true desire itself is a signal from our true and authentic self seeking to let you know who you really are and why you are here. 

Even with our burning heart’s desires trying to direct us toward our true and authentic self, sometimes we get thrown off path if we do not understand our vision of purpose in life.  When we don’t have a vision to how we want to evolve and see our lives unfold, the “something” just becomes the acquisition of things.  Bringing ourselves back to the Presence allows the Creative Spirit to move.  We feel inspired again as the Creative Spirit moves and the “something” becomes about who we truly desire to be and how we truly desire to live our lives.  This “something” empowers us as co-creators rather than making us a victim of circumstance.  As we grow in consciousness and awareness, we continue to use this empowerment to actualize our true desires; thus we move closer and close to actualizing who we truly are.

Accordingly, this empowerment is hope.  Hope is the sustenance of life.  We will only lose hope when we can’t see more.  Seeing more is the work of increasing our Visionary Consciousness.  And we will never be able to see more if we are not in the Presence or if we do not maintain present moment awareness.  Hope when met with faith through spiritual work and spiritual technologies (meditation, prayer, mantras, journaling, yoga, visualization, visioning…) becomes the “knowing” we have in the Presence.  As we look at our present moment and see the circumstance we have created, then in the Presence we have a “knowing” that “all things work together for our good.”  With this “knowing”, we are able to draw to us by way of the Law of Attraction all things in synchronicity to create, actualize, and manifest our true desires. As such, we can’t lose hope; for if we lose hope, we lose sight of our vision of purpose in life.

Inspirational Quote – Awareness and Treasuring the Moment

“Most of us achieve only at rare moments a clear realization of the fact that they have never tasted the fulfillment of existence, that their life does not participate in true fulfillment of existence, that their life does not participate in true fulfilled existence.  We never the less feel the deficiency at every moment, and in some measure strive to find–somwhere–what we are seeking.  Somewhere, in some province of the world or of the mind, except where we stand, where we have been set—but it is there and nowhwere else that the treasure can be found.”

                                                                       –Martin Buber

Somewhere…And it is the search for somewhere whether that somewhere is within or without which distracts or causes us to dis-attract what we need to be and become what we desire.  We search for fulfillment in so many things and sometimes these things become the source of our addictions.  Even as we grow in our awareness, and we desire to go
“within” to learn more about who we are and why we are here, it does not mean that we should try to find that “somewhere” which disengages us from life. 

We cannot spend our days and nights trying to shut everyone and everything out.  For when
we come to realize our purpose and the vision becomes more clear to us, we realize that all we need to actualize our true desires is right where we stand.  It is nowhere else.  It is no one else.  This “somewhere.”  We are all trying to get to causes procrastination.  It causes procrastination because we are unwilling to take inspired action now.  First, it is difficult to see what that inspired action is and secondly, we our resistance to “what is,” stalls our creativity.   

Yes, this somewhere is right where we stand.  It is in the Presence.  We lose sight of the
Presence and we lose sight in the Presence when we are searching for that “somewhere.”  We can’t see the donut because we are so busy staring at the hole.  There are so many resources, opportunities, people, and things available to us in the present moment—in the now.  We just have to stop searching outside of the now and embrace it.  For in all honesty, we created it.  We created it; therefore, it must be created for a reason we desired at some moment and it is this moment which we must awaken to in order to transform all other moments as we truly desire it to be. 

Creating the Life We Truly Desire

Again, there is abundance all around us.  And we must know who we really are.  There is abundance in us.  By choosing to live as co-creators, we are a part of and in partnership with all that is in the Universe. The same abundance, Infinite Creativity, Infinite intelligence, and Infinite Organization that dwells in the Universe also dwells in us. It dwells in us as the Creative Spirit moves through us helping us to actualize our hopes and dreams. 

Because abundance is a Universal Law and we are woven into the fabric of the Universe, we have a right to live abundantly.  In fact, we are abundant.  We were not meant to live in scarcity and lack.  The ALL, Source Energy, God has given us the power to live in  abundance.  However, we must abide by the principles and Laws that govern abundant living.  We must learn the gift of converting the unmanifested into the manifested.  Hence, this will require us to tap into our higher consciousness and not rely solely on what our 5 senses tell us.  For then, we become susceptible to the ego.  We cannot live life from the outside in.  We must live life from the inside out.  Once we realize the voice of our soul, we must have faith that the voice of our soul will not veer us off the path of abundance and greatness.

Our five senses can be enhanced by the wisdom and knowledge of Infinite Intelligence or we can allow the ego to distort our insight and feed us full with illusions. 

For example, in ego, your five senses tell you that if you do not eat fat you will lose weight.  However, nothing could be further from the truth.  With wisdom and knowledge from the voice of your soul, infinite intelligence will guide you to the proper information on this subject matter.  You would be led to discover that the key is to avoid eating animal fat, hydrogenated oils, and cooked fats.  Furthermore you would have the wisdom of knowing that raw plant fat gives you energy and helps you to burn and metabolize stored fat in the body.  Cooked fat, hydrogenated oils, and animal fat is unstructured and the body cannot utilize or metabolize it effectively.

The ego makes decisions based on deduction, not according to true knowledge and wisdom.  It believes this must be so because well…this is not so.  Thus you tend to perpetuate illusions.  A fine example of such illusions would be, if you are in debt, your five senses in ego would tell you to get two jobs and you will make more money to get out of debt.  Again, nothing could be further from the truth.  Most people miss about 20% of their income before they even get their paycheck due to taxes, Medicare, social security, insurance and other deductibles.  Furthermore, with every purchase, you are charged a sales tax of about 9%.  Meaning, each dollar you earn is only worth about 91 cents.   Let us say that you earn $1,000 per week from your job.  In actuality, you only earn about $700 per week. When you factor in food, clothing, transportation, shelter and all that comes with it, you are only working to keep working.  

Is that abundant living?  Absolutely not.  Your five senses in ego can only manipulate current resources and  materials.  It cannot see, touch, taste, smell, or hear the workings of the immaterial—the Spirit realm; therefore, it cannot access the unformed stuff of the universe in order to co-create more and become more.

But, friends, as our true and authentic self there is in our connection with the Universe unformed substance that when tapped into will help us create the lives we truly desire.  This unformed substance cannot be bought with money.  It is unused potential waiting to be formed.  It is the x or y of every equation of the mind over matter.   It is all which is unknown to us waiting to be known.  It is Infinite Possibilities and this is the possibility for anything that is possible. 

The realm of Infinite possibilities is built on the principle that there is endless abundance in the Universe ready to be utilized by us.  Science has discovered that 74% of the universe is “dark matter” or unused potential.  The realm of Infinite Possibilities is than unused potential ready to activated.  It is how something can come from nothing. It answers how a man or woman can hit rock bottom down to nothing and spring up with unlimited resources and opportunities.  Once this potential is activate, the flow is on. 

It is the unformed stuff from which everything is created.  The energy behind its use determines its outcome. 

Ego Tripping the Destroyer of Flow

When we operate in ego, we don’t have access to infinite organizing power, because we have decided to separate ourselves from Source Energy.  In ego, we are limited to what we can “figure out” ourselves, so if we were not born into privilege and want wealth and success, we have limited resources.  But, when we choose to become a co-creator as our true and authentic self (the only way to be a co-creator), then we have partnered with the universe.  The universe is held in the mind of the all, it is mental and therefore it has infinite intelligence, infinite organizing power, and infinite possibilities.  Our partnership as a co-creator gives us access to it all. 

However, to gain access we must choose to be co-creators and swim with the flow of abundance and not against it.  The ego is blind to the Great Vision because it seeks to be separated from the whole out of fear.  The ego is deaf to the soul because it is afraid of the uncertainty of what it hears. 

In the flow, we follow our bliss and passion in life because we can hear the voice of our soul instructing us from infinite intelligence.  We are being guided, protected, and love by the Holy Spirit—Oneness.  This comfort and protection helps keep us in the flow of abundance.  The ego is a distraction or dis-attraction because it disconnects us from the flow through its desire to be separated from Oneness.

Often times, this is what exacerbates our fear.  The ego fears the flow of abundance because in the flow we are becoming more of our true and authentic self.  This takes the ego right out of the driver’s seat.  With diminished capacity to rule our lives and direct us away from oneness, the ego subsides in a sub-servant role and simply carries on its functions of perception, personality, and identification.  With ruling capacity, the ego takes on the tyrannical role of judgment, paranoia, defensiveness, and competitiveness. 

The ego trip can be short or it can be long.  It is our hope that through Abundance Training for Co-creators, each member of the Blue Lotus Living Community will find it a very short trip.  The good and potential for greatness that is in all of us must be cultivated in order for us to be the success we desire in life.  Letting go of the fetters of the ego and illusions of the ego happens when we become dedicated to actualizing our true and authentic self. 

We must give ourselves the opportunity to be ourselves and live life from our true self-concept instead of from something we created in reaction to our disappointments, pains, and hurts from life.  As co-creators we can have passion, joy, love, good fortune, empowering relationships, adventures, youth vigor, and a sound mind.  We become more active in our lives and we let go of the passive default reactions to life which cause us the pain we seek to avoid.

The Creative Spirit and Making Your Dreams Come True

The Creative Spirit is powerful.  We feel the Creative Spirit move each time we feel inspired or motivated to do, be, or have anything.  This inspiration can move through us every moment of our lives if we allow it. 

In view of this, we have established here at Blue Lotus Living that the Creative Spirit is a powerful function of the Holy Spirit.  The Creative Spirit is responsible for the creation process. Yes, this resolves once and for all that spirit has forming power.   As co-creators, we partner with the Universe and in the partnership, we agree to allow or “let the Creative Spirit” move through us. 

Those of us who have big dreams and dream big, need not worry why our hearts are inclined to do so.  I know that before I embarked on the path of enlightenment, I would often wish I didn’t dreams so big.  What was it that was urging these dreams?  What was urging these dreams which seemed so outlandish and gregarious?  Then I realized I was outlandish and gregarious; therefore, it was only natural that my dreams would be outlandish and gregarious as well.  In other words, this is how the Creative Spirit moves through me—gregarious and outlandish…imagine that.

Can we really let go to this extent?  Can we let go to an extent which we totally and completely have faith in the creative process to a magnitude by which we allow the Creative Spirit to move through us?  Well, let me first be completely direct with you.  If we want our dreams to come true…if we want to live our dreams…if we want to experience the freedom of living the life we know we are supposed to live, then we must “let the Creative Spirit move.” 

The Creative Spirit, again, a function of the Holy Spirit or the Oneness Blessing must move through you.  Remember, everything is energy and everything is mental.  All things which we hear and see spring forth from the Infinite Living Mind.  This universe which is mental is held in the Mind of the ALL.  For it written in the Kybalion…

“ALL is mind, the universe is mental.” 

Allowing the Creative Spirit to move in the creation process is mental transmutation.  As the Creative Spirit moves through you it is forming the unformed stuff of the Universe; as a result, that which is unformed becomes formed and that which is unseen is actualized and becomes seen.  Once we resolve this and become available in and to the Presence, then our dreams will come true—our dreams will manifest in our reality. 

You see, if we cultivate our minds and the well of our being with wealth consciousness then our dreams will spontaneously grow through the God Force with in us.  It sounds magical but it is true.  It sounds wondrous but it is true.  Know it and believe it because you can create your reality as a co-creator.  As a co-creator with our magical and inexhaustible universe, we become the instrument through which our dreams come true.  So our advice here at Blue Lotus Living is take the time to fine tune your instrument through spiritual and personal development.  Increase your wealth consciousness.  Take care of your physical body. Renew your mind with productive philosophy and productive thoughts.  Do your spiritual work.  Then…watch…as your dreams become visions and your visions manifest in your reality
