Part 2 of 5
When thoughts are replaced by silence in the mind, perception arises. It
is a part of the modern condition wherein the mind of humanity is
constantly overwhelmed, by a million considerations and thoughts. In
acquiring silence, the mind is enabled to get out of the way of
spiritual progress, and in so doing observes the Universal Consciousness
of which we are composed. Silent self awareness returns us to our natural state of
being, and the natural state has little to do with modern chaos. By
calming the inner world, the
Mastery of personal Energy,
well focused Awareness, and
natural Intent is
progressively gained. Meditation
shows us that these Universal Three compose every aspect of nature and
humanity. By recognizing the truth of self as consciousness, we also
perceive others as kindred souls. In
calm perception we understand nature as a source for spiritual
regeneration. Such realization causes the seeker of spiritual revelation
to exclaim, “I AM THAT”,
in a direct perception of the unity of self with the cosmos.
Through self discovery, the seeker becomes a Knower of Truth. Through the daily application
of Truth, the Knower becomes a conscious Creator. As self-aware creators we radiate uplifting effects, as a
beacon of light in the darkness of world illusion.
The self realized are a source for spiritual regeneration set in
motion, everywhere upon the globe.
In self
knowledge then, we learn that our true identity is soul.
Soul is consciousness
itself. In
meditation or prayer, it is also learned that we are a part of that
which is called “God”. God is also Consciousness
Itself. Thus,
“soul”, “God”, and “consciousness” are fundamentally
synonymous terms. They all are aspects of Truth, deriving their existence from
the same universal basis. To Realize ones’ self, God and Nature, AS
CONSCIOUSNESS, (I AM THAT) is thus a significant spiritual event.
Equally significant is to realize the exact nature of the
consciousness within and without. Very simply, Consciousness
is composed of Intent, Awareness and Energy, and each of these may
be readily identified in the self.
Each is a concrete and practical element of self and universe, at
its most fundamental level. The
energy within is sensed as that level of vitality and strength flowing
through the body, (also known as “chi” or “ki”). Awareness is
noticed as that agency of “seeingness” or “the watcher” behind
all thoughts, emotions and daily circumstance.
It is “that which looks” through all of the senses and yet is
more than any one of them. Intent is seen as that aspect of self that
changes our course of action. This
happens at the very second any decision is made.
When we understand the presence of these three within, our
ability to CREATE is
increased beyond measure, since this trinity of consciousness is the
source of all Creation. Through
the realization of self as consciousness, we can consciously direct
energy, and focus awareness into any pattern desired, (visualization/thoughtform
creation). We may also
direct Intent in such a way as to build
enlightenment itself, and any other progressive quality in life
that we wish. In this way
our thoughts, inspiration and willpower are turned from the mundane
focus of material gain, to the high responsibilities and privileges of
Cosmic Citizenship, as conscious beings.
With the truthful view of self as consciousness, we may transform
the world to any level of bliss, peace and enlightenment.
The practitioner is
compelled by the very forces of evolution, to carry on the work of
creating a more enlightened self. As consciousness expands, so too does the perceived need to
improve the world condition. The
essential fact of Unity becomes not only an intellectual truth, but a
felt reality which one is compelled to address.
The desire to improve the consciousness of the World Mind, or
collective consciousness of humanity, becomes indistinguishable from the
desire to raise personal or group consciousness. To raise ones’ self
to new levels of love, clarity, energy and Divine connection, is to
become inevitably involved with the raising of world consciousness as
well. Fortunately, with the
expansion of personal consciousness, comes the enhanced ability to
expand the consciousness of the world.
The power of the individual mind to directly
contribute to the condition of the world, increases cumulatively over
time and progressive Intent. Of particular usefulness is our Intention to Perpetually Raise
our consciousness, in order to become what is known as a
spiritual “Master”. Through
the Intent of spiritual gain, the Master gradually arises from the ranks
of those who imagine material goals to be the purpose of life.
In so doing they shed the light of Truth, on a world which would
otherwise be plagued by the shadows of self-destructive acquisition.
The Master knows the power that their thoughts have on other
body/minds. They know that
when personal Awareness focuses on any given thing or person, immediate
shifts of energy and pattern begin to arise therein.
They understand that Intent is the determiner and shaper of our
collective destiny, one that is not written in stone, but which changes
according to the applied wisdom of the people.
As the individual evolves, personal Intent proceeds from the
arbitrary smallness of ego, to a spiritual force of world changing
potential. The force of the
human spirit is then wielded for the sake of Divine and Evolutionary
Will, in the benefit of all nations.
Through self awareness as souls, we manifest a greater world
through the instrumentality of the body.
Similarly, the mind also becomes the vehicle for soulic
expression, and therefore spiritual ministry, (the conveyance of Truth
to others). This is especially true of the soul that has fully realized
its own nature, as consciousness, while still in a physical body.
The soulic, or consciousness-oriented view of worldly events, imparts
deep and factual lessons upon the spiritually-minded. The truth that is
directly perceived by the soul, is known by every earnest seeker,
natural person and small child. This
is the perspective of clarity and intuitive genius.
It is the spontaneous and natural love of innocence and purity of
Intention. The uncomplicated view of self-as-spirit, offers clear
insight into the social challenges of our day. From this clarified view
we can easily see the nature of the problems which face humanity.
In clarity we also see the fundamental source of human suffering.
It is not difficult to perceive that the foremost cause of world
problems today, is the wholesale disregard of natural and spiritual
laws. The lack of honesty
about what is true and life-affirmative is the modern bane. In an
imbalanced, collective focus upon materialism, society has forgotten the
fact that life is about spiritual progression.
We are an indivisible part of the process of evolution! Evolution
is a spiritual progression! What we find today instead of an
evolutionary focus however, is grossly exaggerated material
accumulation. The quest for
money above all other things, is carried out purely for the sake of
egotism. Such Intentions run contrary to what has been called the
“conscience”, or in other words, the voice and knowledge of the
soul. Our souls know that spirituality and human evolution must go hand
in hand. We must evolve to
survive, and to evolve we must adopt spiritual priorities as our primary
collective focus. The
unnecessary accumulation of material things can never satisfy. This fact
must be reflected as a matter of lifestyle, and not just political
speeches or convenient application.
The main avenue for spiritual growth and all
evolution, is the expansion of consciousness.
Through an applied knowledge of consciousness, we contribute to
the collective evolution of humanity, and not just the self.
Through meditation and the wise employment of Intent, we greatly
accelerate true progress by
fulfilling the goals of natural law.
Our species is at a critical decision point between
materialism and spiritual evolution. Making this decision cannot be
delayed indefinitely. The time of
the Great Transformation is at hand.
We will either destroy ourselves through our own misguided works,
or we will align our spirits in spiritual progress, and manifest a world
of beauty and inspiration in the
Natural Divine.
We may achieve true fulfillment not through worldly
travel, nor monetary gain. Humanity
already posseses the material means to prosper. We will evolve into
beings of great ability and wisdom, only through the expansion of
consciousness, not the revision of devices or ideologies.
There can be no lasting
political solutions, for the current problems of the world. It is not a revolution in governmental policy which is now
needed. Our greatest need
as a species is not new political parties, social orders or
technological applications. The
foundations of these will still be built upon the same consciousness of
selfish concern, if the inner focus of the public is not first shifted.
We will only reach the “Promised Land” through a change of
our own inner condition, which is itself the very creator of the
outer world and all social forms.
Only through the expansion of consciousness can we realistically
hope to employ the wisdom necessary for right living, rather than wanton
destruction. Every state of
consciousness is sustained by an underlying Intent.
Thus, every act is based upon a given motivation, which is its
cause. It is motive and cause we must address, not form and symptom.
Our very survival as a species depends on whether or not we
recognize this distinction of cause
as contrasted to effect,
(karma). The ultimate motive and cause of all things, including human
society and individual achievement, is based squarely upon the INTENT
employed every moment. Intent is the determiner of how consciousness functions, and
consciousness is the basis of all manifestation. The raising of our
consciousness or Intent, is therefore of supreme importance to the
survival and further evolution of our species.
Through the expansion of personal consciousness, there arises the
greater willingness to join our forces of creation with others, in
mutual good will. The love
that arises within desires to be shared.
The seed of the fruits of clarity, has a drive to be planted in
other minds. It may be said then, that spiritual ministry is in large
part simply the spontaneous desire to propagate Truth, and for its own
sake.
There are many different though complimentary aspects
to consciousness expansion. All
of these are the existing
parameters of evolutionary growth, already held by Natural Law long
before the arrival of Homo Sapiens. These aspects can be reduced to the
basic six Intentions which are described by the Perpetual
Raising and GM series,
(see the WMS Library at http://www.eoni.com/~visionquest).
The six are greater vibration, more crystallized clarity, higher levels of energy, increased right
alignment with God/Soul/Nature, the expansion of positive Intent, and increased right
intent/action in the cultivation of stronger spiritual will.
Higher
personal vibration lends
itself to a harmony of positive feelings, and collective co-creation.
It is the flowing of sweet love throughout all living and
evolving beings. Greater clarity
gives us the ability to See Truth for what it is, and cut through the
falsehoods of media and cultural conditioning.
It allows us to know the real cause behind the sufferings and
motives of our fellow human beings.
Clarity results in an enhanced vision into the laws of nature,
and the solutions to which society may apply itself, to cure the
collective cancers of fear and political division.
Higher energy levels
are experienced as we focus our psychic power not upon competitiveness,
but upon mutual upliftment. As
we learn to share our psychic energies with each other, they are greatly
magnified and mutually empowered. In
right alignment with the soul, and with God and Nature, we stay in
tune with the designs of Cosmic origin.
Cosmic designs will always be superior to human-made laws.
By staying in right alignment, we insure that the steps of change
taken together, are those which are of the highest evolutionary benefit
for all. In right
action/Intent, we create those spiritual conditions of mutual living
most conducive to the true progress of our kind.
This may also be called the maintaining of spiritual will, and
the drive to align with each other in the spirit of mutual growth.
In expansion is found
a means through which love, clarity and other useful Intentions, may be
spread throughout the world to inoculate the body of humanity, against
the dis-ease of fear. These
six highlighted focuses above are the very essence of paradise
re-gained, whereby we may expand our personal and collective
consciousness. They may all
be employed on a personal, group and worldwide basis.
Through the wise use of these six elements does the
light of Truth grow bright, throwing back the clouds of despair, and
bringing the warmth of a new age of enlightenment for our kind.
This enlightenment will be unlike anything ever known in the past
45 centuries. One person
with this knowledge can do much to bring about change, especially at the
local level of home and neighborhood. “Doing” in this context
primarily involves the projection and holding of consciousness raising
intentions for others.
Ten minds in spiritual unison, (meditation/group mind) may
redirect the consciousness of an entire city into more uplifting states.
One hundred meditators through the combined force of their Intent
may uplift a whole region, whereas a thousand or more motivated
spiritual practitioners, may well raise world consciousness, like a
great wave of relief upon a parched land.
Well-directed group mind force, (which employs the six Intentions
above) is a major key in the creation of a more evolved era for this
planet. We can use this
force of mutual consciousness today, to unlock our true potentials, as
self aware centers of consciousness.
The WMS article entitled; “The
Perpetual Raising” discusses the Intentional formation of
group minds, for this purpose of self, group and world enlightenment. It
emphasizes the potentials and practices involved with the mutual use of
Intent. Through such
universal knowledge, we may raise the level of consciousness of all
those gathered together in spiritual focus.
In group meditation/prayer, each practitioner learns for
themselves the experiential benefits of group mind action.
They learn the potentials of what an Intentionally formed group
mind can do, to change the psychic conditions of fear and pain in the
surrounding fields of consciousness.
Through unified field principles, (such as the resonance of
feeling and thought, person to person) psychic connectedness is a
familiar fact of everyday existence.
However, it is fact of life we are “normally” not consciously
aware of, because of the influences of the present materialistic
culture. When this
experiential knowledge arises fully in the individual, the inspiration
to act for the well being of group and world gains momentum. This happens when we realize the considerable impact our
thoughts, feelings and states of consciousness have on others.
Such psychic effects occur, each and every time we socially
interact. Even the thought of someone who is clear across the world,
renders psychic effects upon them that should not be underestimated.
With each effect we create in the consciousness of those surrounding us,
there is an underlying intent involved. Through the right use of such
Intent, we can reconnect our lives with the aims of Nature, Soul and
God, taking up the work of the Masters of all ages willingly, and with
relish. There is no greater
purpose in life than this, nor any source of greater satisfaction and
fulfillment.
Groups of practitioners may therefore meet, with
the specific aim of raising world consciousness. This practice is similar to the process of group
consciousness expansion, as described in The
Perpetual Raising. The
employment of group Intent for this purpose, is not unlike the Intent
employed by a Master, (such as a Christ, Buddha or Lao Tzu) in the
improvement of the human condition.
Through the combination of individual Intents, the group
mind principle of nature comes into play.
It renders the geometrically greater psychic effects of many
minds in spiritual accord. Through such psychic and spiritual knowledge,
group focus may be used to co-create world-enlightening effects, just as
the spiritual Masters of history have been known to do.
This is not the creation of “miracles” however, but simply
the practical and mutual engagement of natural laws.
By employing the four steps in the Manifestation
of Intent on a joint basis, strong psychic currents are generated,
which impact the fields of consciousness at large.
Mutually focused Intent reinforces itself over and over again.
The Intent of mutual love for instance, can be rendered worldwide, just
as it can be manifest mutually. Mutually
held feelings of love will automatically extend themselves to some
degree, to any area jointly
or individually visualized. In
fact, any time we visualize anything, this mental picture starts to
change environmental energies according to the Intent behind it.
This is the basic essence of what a thoughtform is, and how it
functions. When mutual love
is held and visualized, shifts of consciousness within all persons in
that area, be it a neighborhood or the entire planet, immediately begin
to manifest, (to a variable
degree and depending on current psychic conditions).
Knowledge of intent also strengthens our psychic projections.
A review of the four steps for the manifestation
of Intent, is as follows;
Let us first review these steps on a personal
basis;
THE EMPLOYMENT OF INTENT
(for
rendering personal change)
1) Be aware
of your current state of body/mind, (this is accomplished through
meditation).
2) Gain
familiarity with that which is to be Intended, (such as a
higher love and clarity) and the Intent to be acted upon is
crystallized.
3) The
desired state is held steady in the mind, (for at least 5
minutes). Visualize and feel this state as if it already exists, until
the body/mind shifts into it.
4) The
desired state is "held in place" throughout the body,
(or a given chakra). This new state is maintained by treating it as the
new reality of the self on a permanent basis.
Subsequent applications of the above four-step
process render cumulative results, so please be persistent!
Through
these four steps we can raise our degree of personal love, clarity,
energy, spiritual will, expansion, and right alignment to any degree,
thereby progressively becoming “Masters”.
Now compare the above to the below four steps
for, “Raising the World”:
THE
MANIFESTATION OF INTENT
(FOR
WORLD CHANGE)
1) Be aware
of the current state of World Mind, (this is accomplished through
meditation, and a body-wide sensitivity to the feelings/Intent currently
traveling around the globe. Just
visualize the world and FEEL.
2) Gain
familiarity with that which is to be Intended around the world, (such as a higher love and clarity) and the
Intent to be acted upon is crystallized.
3)
The
desired result and state is held steady in the body/mind,
as though it already exists.
The meditator superimposes the visualized result of higher world
consciousness, upon the existing World Mind.
Our focused Awareness acts to Create
external psychic changes, by providing environmental energies with a
pattern to crystallize around.
[In this way our awareness may be compared to the lines of force
exerted by a magnet upon iron filings] A re-patterning of global
consciousness, in accord with personal, (or group) Intent, then begins
to take effect. This initiates psychic changes in the nations of the
world, first at the unified field, (subatomic) level of existence, and
then subsequently at the material level of social policy. Awareness
extends outward from the self, (or selves) into the environment, and
according to ones’ visualized Intent. It causes the Energy there to
conform to the desired changes. To accomplish this step in raising the
world consciousness, the entire Earth is visualized.
Also pictured is “the light of change”, which manifests
positive Intent, (described hereafter).
4)
The
desired result and state is "Intended into place", (and held there).
The new pattern of consciousness, generated through focused Awareness at
the direction of Intent, is now made manifest. This new
level of love, clarity or other desired Intention is then stabilized, by
treating it as the new reality of the World Mind. Psychic
changes created in these four steps, are Intended
into place as a lasting benefit for all of humanity, and/or for the
Earth itself.
Subsequent applications of the above four-step
process render cumulative results, so please be persistent! Each time we have a group meditation, it stabilizes the
Intent of greater world enlightenment in progressive increments!
Through these four steps we can raise the planetary degree of
love, clarity, energy, spiritual will, expansion, and right alignment to
any extent we are so willed, thereby becoming more evolved as a
conscious species.
Groups may gather at any time and follow the above steps, when
endeavoring to create environmental change. One
could call this, “intentional unified field modification” or simply
“casting”, as in the casting of a “spiritual spell”. The raising
of world consciousness represents a very high level of spiritual Intent. Its employment by an individual using the above four steps,
(through determined and progressive Intent) is of powerful benefit.
But when such a focus is the subject of Group,
(mind) Intent, the effects rendered are geometrically multiplied
many times over, due to the right use of several natural laws.
It is recommended that groups who endeavor to raise the World
Mind in this way, use the six elements of consciousness expansion as
their primary focus. This
simplifies, streamlines and unites the Intent of each individual
practitioner in concert with all others present, and throughout the
world. These six are also
inherently potent, making their use very desirable. Thus, the world consciousness may be expanded meditationally
via;
1)
Greater group clarity,
(Awareness of Awareness)…as Created by the psychic specialists
known as Visionaries *.
2)
Higher group vibration,
(love)…as Created by the psychic specialists known as Purifiers
*.
3)
Increased group Energy, (chi)…as Created by the psychic specialists known
as Energizers *.
4)
Increased right alignment,
(rapport with God/Universal Intelligence)…as Created by psychic
specialists known as Channelers *.
5)
Implemented right
action/Intent, (spiritual progressiveness or will)…as
Created by psychic
specialists known as Motivators
*.
6)
Greater
expansion,
(of any mindstate or Intent over a greater geographical area)…as
Created by psychic specialists known as Manifestors
*.
