The Way We Think
We have no requirement to find God; we are already found. Yet, on some days, suffering appears to be both all around us and within us. How is this so?
Have you ever put a stick in a pond and watched how the ripples distort your reflection? All you have to do to be found by God-whatever or whomever you deem God to be-is take the stick out of the pond, let the water’s surface become smooth, and see who you are. That stick represents your fear, and it represents the victim archetype. The image you see in the pond looking back at you is a reflection of the internal representations in your mind, many of which are buried in your subconscious.
But you are not a victim of your subconscious any more than you are compelled by some imaginary force to place the stick in the pond.
When you feel like a victim it is because you feel as if you have no choices. Now, what would happen if you learned how the mind-this force with eight million miles of zeroes of possibilities behind it-actually worked? What if you knew how it constructed your reality? What if you then learned how to deconstruct your reality and rebuild it into something joyful?
The subconscious is in fact a powerful gateway to these millions of functions buried within the human mind. Of course, our lives are too harried to consciously activate every single one of those functions; however, at the subconscious level, the possibilities are countless if they are not completely endless (eight million miles, for the purpose of this discussion, might as well be infinity!).
If we agree that there are millions of functions-literally millions of possibilities resting like an unopened gift beneath your cranium-then not learning how to direct those functions robs you and the world around you of your own human potential. By learning how to direct the subconscious mind, you acquire the ability to create, to potentialize. In turn, your life and the world around you changes radically.
All the world religions say man and woman are made in the image and likeness of God. The one thing that all world religions can agree upon is that God is creative. So, if we are made in the image and likeness of this thing called God, does that not presuppose that we create?
You are consciously creating the world moment by moment. At any time you can take the stick out of the pond and say, ‘If I knew that I had choice in my life and that I could direct my subconscious to actually make outcomes happen, then would I be in as much fear? Or would I be in that slipstream of the creative power that gives me choice, that takes me out of fear and allows me to be still?”
The principal responsibility we each have is to awaken our ability to transform fear into its opposite. The technology is available. The only question to be answered is, will you learn it? And in the stilling of your story of what did and did not happen to you, you will see your reflection, your divine reflection, and realize all things past, present, and to come are designed to return you back to love. This is conscious creation. This is the power of NLP.
