Comments on Creative Visualization

Some of you have noticed that in the comments on my last blog there was an article posted on Creative Visualization. I have no idea where that came from, but it was interesting. It was not relevant to the topic, but that’s ok, someone needed to advertise and so we let it be.

But since it’s there let’s talk about creative visualization. I have used this type of technique before and if you go to the link they left it takes you to Anthony Robbins information. I studied Anthony Robbins stuff and rather liked it. Back in my powerful manifest abundance and success days when I was climbing the corporate ladder, so to speak, I used this a great deal and created a successful career that I very much enjoyed. The principles work.

But now in my more quiet spiritual awareness phase of life I look to contrast the skills of my twenties with the wisdom of my forties.

A Course in Miracles would probably say… learning creative visualization is good for you to understand your own creative power, but using it to create physical wealth and abundance is not going to get you where you really want to go.

For what we really want deep down inside is a return to our authentic, spiritual nature where we know we have all the creative power there is and that we need nothing for we have everything. Then there would be no striving, just accepting of our natural abundance. But of course this takes our awareness out of this limited physical existence to our unlimited spiritual condition.

A Course in Miracles would say don’t waste your time trying to manifest interesting things in the physical reality, but use your mind and creative power to come home. We each have a part to play out in the physical reality that will take us home, but if we are busy manifesting what our ego minds think we should have we will never really know what our spiritual destiny is.

So if you want to use your creative power than use it in an open ended way that says “Show me Divine Force of Creative Energy, show me all that I am and where the most amazing path to live out my destiny lies.” Try that out, you may be surprised at the transformation in your life.

Then instead of manifesting stuff you practice living the presence of divine truth.

A Course in Miracles and the Traps of Language

Ok, so Rana, thanks for your comments! The Course in Miracles can look daunting. In fact there is debate amongst the Course fans that it should be changed to eliminate all the Christian references. Some say that it just trips people up. They want it to be a universal curriculum and skip the Christian references.

I myself come from a strong Christian background and it is a challenge to read the material with clear eyes and not always put the statements into the perspective I was raised with.

In fact it is the process of constantly pushing the material through our conditioned filters that helps us break them down.

It is only our filters that get ruffled by the terminology not our spirit. If you continue to read and push through the language of the course and your own personal resistance, you will discover an amazing result. In order to push through you are also tearing down. You are subconsciously unwinding your conditioning. Before you know it things are changing for you. And in you.

It almost seems miraculous. Just reading it constantly is like a call to the soul. The soul hears even when the conscious and subconscious mind fights it. But the soul hears and responds.

It is like a medicine that you take in and it just starts working behind the scene. I can not adequately explain the wonderful life changing effect this book can have – even if your mind fights it – keep going.

It is written in seeming old English and often the sentences don’t seem to make sense. But the truth is the logic brain can’t get a hold on the information, but the soul can. So you feed the soul its own truth while the logic brain flounders around trying to get you to stop this insane reading material.

But push on dear friends; you will awaken something deep within you that will transform your life, quietly and consistently. Just keep going, don’t listen to your logic brain and ego based thoughts they are meant to keep you lost.
