The Science of Deliberate Creation

"That which I give thought to and that which I believe or expect -- IS."

This is the second Universal Law that deals with Creation. (The first being The Law of Attraction and the third is the Art of Allowing.)

All three must work together to obtain the result that we desire. So I am going to discuss the Second Law in this and then the Third Law in the next post. Finally I will put it all together to show you how you might be able to learn to put it into practical use.

The Science of Deliberate Creation teaches us that we need to pay attention to the way that we feel. In basic form when we feel good we are in line with our higher power. "When it feels right, it is."

Remember the first Law (the Law of Attraction): "That which is like itself is drawn." It is the Law that governs thought. The more you think about what you want, you are in effect adding an ingredient to your "cake".

Now you must add feelings to it.

This is the spice that pushes it into high gear. Be mindful of your feelings because you create what you are thinking and feeling about.

The best example that I like to use to help highlight what happens when we unknowingly co-create is:

Imagine that you are struggling with your bills. (So many people do these days it is an easy example.) So you keep saying to yourself "I am struggling"; "I can't pay my bills on time" and "I have no money". When you put feelings to these, which it can be easy to do since we look at money (as a country) a lot, you bring it to you.

You do this because you really are struggling financially and you don't know the way out. So you keep thinking these things and you keep putting feelings on them because you don't know how to escape from it.

If you notice the thoughts above and then your feelings it is easy to see why this keeps happening (baring in mind that the Three Universal Laws are taking place here).

There is a third that I will talk about next, but for now just look at your thoughts and feelings.

So . . .

In the above example from Spirit's (Universe's/God's/Creator's) point of view you are telling Him that you must really want it because that is all you think about. Since your thoughts and feelings are a big part of what you bring to you.

Let's talk about money for a moment.

Money, people say is the root of all Evil, so why do we want it so bad. Do we all really want to be little demons walking this Earth because we are all financially rich?

Is "money" really "evil"?

Truth be told (as I see it) money is an exchange of energy. Money was set up along time ago to: "pay" for goods and or services. If we look at just that for a moment we can literately see "I will give you this in exchange for that".

Money, historically, is that exchange that everyone agreed to. And it works too.

How can that exchange be "Evil"?

What is really being said when "money is the root of all Evil"?

Perhaps people feel strongly that when you have a lot of money you become corrupt. (Now I do not have a lot of money but you will see that is not what I define as true wealth. So I don't know what it is like to be a millionaire but maybe I don't have to.)

Now from my experience that I've seen of people that have a lot of money is this:

Firstly, people are just people, no matter where in the World you are. We are all Human. So there will be people that are not nice to begin with and then there will be people that are nice.

What I think a lot of money gives you is the feeling that you have freedom to be who you truly are inside. So, if you are nice, you show that more. (Because you feel like you can.) Similarly, if you are not nice, then you feel like you can be more of the same.

Financially rich or poor, people will be this way. So, how can having a lot of money be "Evil"?

Does buying that car make you feel rich? What about your dreams? Do millionaires actually buy that car that they really want, in cash? Well maybe. But most people didn't become a millionaire by winning the lotto. (Although some did.)

To me True Wealth comes from within. You either feel rich or poor. Most people don't feel like they are in the middle.

Question:

Maybe this is part of the reason why we as a nation have such a large portion that are "poor" versus "rich"?

Spirit (Universe/God/Creator) wants ALL of us to feel what it is to have True Wealth.

So, what about your dreams?

True Wealth does not have to mean that we all are millionaires. It means that you need to know, for yourself, what you feel is wealth for you.

For me, the sense of "freedom" is working at home. This is freedom to me. So long as I can comfortably pay all of my bills and do what I want to do without worrying about bills.

What is your dream?

More importantly what do you feel is your dream?

We can be a nation of "dreamers" once again. We can show, by example what it means to pursue our own dreams.

But it starts with you and me.

Do you notice the main theme of this? It is how do you feel? That is the essence of "The Science of Deliberate Creation".

It is the second of three Laws that bind this Universe together.

Feel what is important to you as you put thought to it.

Finding Your Calling

Finding your Calling is a lot like finding a needle in a haystack . . . you know there is a needle in there somewhere, you just are having a very hard time finding it!


Just like the needle our Calling or our Life's Purpose can be very hard to find . . . "Where do I begin to look?" "How will I know what it is when I discover it?" "Is it really there?" And possibly the most important question of all . . . "Why should I even bother?"

Well, the great thing about Life is we can choose to search for our Vocation or not, its all up to us. But why should we even bother, what is so important that it can't wait?

Let's examine each of these questions:

Why should we even bother, what is so important that it can't wait?

Indeed, if your like a lot of people the things that you tend to worry about most are things like: "does this person like me?" or "what does my boss want me to do, now?" or "are we going to get this house?"

Clearly, if your like most people, then the furthest thing on your mind is trying to figure out your "Calling". After all, there are just too many things to think about during a regular day, as it is.

Or should we be spending the time to think about it?

The thought process here is: by taking the time to uncover our single reason for coming back, we reveal what we actually like to do the majority of the time.

The incredible thing is that if you sit down and think about what you like to do and what you don't like to do, you soon discover that when you are working on what you enjoy most, Life seems to work out for the better.

The other thing is, more importantly, when you are doing your Life's Purpose you are: Moving closer to Home; also you are actually having a big impact on not only the people around you, but society as a whole.

We don't have to be famous to make a big impression on many people.

Consider this:

Imagine that you are at a crosswalk and a senior citizen is standing next to you. Both of you are waiting for the light to turn so the two of you can walk across the street. As the light turns, you start walking over to the other side of the road, about half way you turn around only to find that she (the senior citizen) is walking much slower. She has only just begun, because she struggles to walk.

The light is flashing now. But instead of walking across the street to your destination, you go back and help this woman.

She is so thankful, that she starts telling you her life's story. She does this because she wants you to know that there was once upon-a-time when she was as fit as you are now. There are also, not enough people in her life that do something for her like that. So, instead of walking away, once again, you take the time to listen.

When she's done, just a few minutes have gone by, you smile and say that she's most welcome for the help. You part ways and go about your day.

During all of this three other people have seen this entire event happen. Each one of them feels so good about you and what you did for that lady, that each of them finds ways to do something worthy for someone else too.

In each case, three other people do good deeds for someone else and so on.

You can probably tell that it wouldn't take too long to have thousands of people all inspired to do something good for someone else.

All because of what you did to help that lady cross the road.

Now what are you thinking?

This is the reason why we should search for our Life's Purpose. Because it is this kind of impact that we make when we are doing what we were born to do.

But is it really there?

The first thing you may or may not come to realize is that everyone has one.

However, it can be very difficult, if not seemingly impossible, to see if you have a "Calling". After all if your love is fishing and you happen to be very good at it; doesn't that constitute a "Calling"?

It might . . .

The fact is we don't come into this world without having something to do. Your "Calling" is not just something that you may be good at, it is also a Life Challenge. Since you should be working on it for the better part of your life you will also find that it isn't easy.

But then, nothing worth while is . . .

Ponder this for a moment.

If it is a "fact" that we come here with something to do what is meant by the term "fact"?

In this context you could view your life as a "job". In this "job" we start out brand new, we don't know what we're supposed to do, so we tend to be very needy.

As we grow, we learn. From speaking to walking, to going to school and college, all the way up to finding our first place to live and a job.

Now if your "boss" were watching your progress, it would be safe to say that they are pleased with your momentum.

But they also want to see you really grow and shine as a human. They hope that you will discover the very reason why you are here.

They also know that when you do, you will have a choice to do it, or not. But if you do, you will grow in ways that you never thought possible.

So, in order to help you, they will devise ways of guiding you to your path. You may never know that they are assisting you. They kind of work in the background.

But who are "they"?

Have you ever noticed when you meet someone just as you were thinking about him or her? Or when you are reading the newspaper and you "happen" to find the perfect house?

This is the Law of Attraction. This Law states that whatever you put your thoughts and feelings to, you will attract that to you. This is "they".

Suffice to say it is because of this Law that you experience what you do. It is a kind of co-creating that go between you and the Universe.

Having said all that "how will you know what it is when you discover it?"

There are a few clues as to how you find out what your "Calling" is. The first is that you find something that you really like and you're "naturally" good at. There is a lot to be said for working at something that you enjoy doing.

This may mean that what you are here to do has nothing to do with earning a living. Remember the second thing to bear in mind is that it also is a "Life Challenge".

A "Life Challenge" does not mean that you are going to have a really hard time at doing your Life's Purpose. It simply means that as you proceed you will get better at it. This also means that as you advance because you are getting better, you will be faced with more and more difficult challenges. It needs to be said that you will always be able to handle what is thrown at you.

The third thing to point out is that you will meet people or situations that draw you back to your Life's Purpose.

If you then sit back and think about all of that, you may begin to realize what you were meant to do. Couple that with the fact that it will always have a positive impact on the people you come in contact with, it doesn't take long to come to this next question:

"Where do I begin to look?"

The rule of thumb is always start with looking inside of you. Since all of your answers (and questions) come from here it is safe to say that it makes sense to begin here.

But this is easier to say than actually do.

If you can heed close attention to what you naturally do, then this should point you into the direction you need to be looking.

Okay, so you've asked yourself all of the questions you can and you've answered them too but you are still wondering where to look.

Well, the next thing to do is notice what you naturally do the most. For example:

Do you spend your time around children? Or do children naturally feel comfortable around you? If this is the case, then maybe you should think about having a family or finding work that allows you to be around children.

What if you were good with people? Do you like helping them? Or do you feel an urge to serve in some way? Well, if this is how you feel, then maybe you should look at something that brings all of those elements together.

You could be mechanically inclined. If this is the case then what area of technology do you love most? Once you know the answer . . . well you know the rest.

The important thing to remember about your "Calling" is to keep in mind that you do have one, even if you can't see it right now. It should also be said that when you come here, you would always have a Life Challenge. If you didn't it would be like hiring you for a job that doesn't exist. (There aren't too many employers that would do that.) This is how you know it is there.

Discovering it takes time. You may find that it takes you a lifetime to perceive it. The important thing to remember is to keep asking questions that help you to explore your inner self. Growth happens every time you do this. Once you do find your Life's Purpose then Life naturally flows better. (This does not mean you will never have another challenge. It just means that Life is more fulfilling.)

Of course you always begin looking inside yourself. This is the easiest thing to do. It also means that it makes it a very personal journey.

You should remember that this is your expedition. You have the answers within you. Having said that, you have help Life will always find a way to reflect back to you what you need to be working on and which direction you need to be looking in.

It's up to you to pay attention.

Twin Souls

I have come to learn that Twin Souls are twins from a "larger" Soul. It is almost like twins at birth (the physical manifestation of twin souls).

Basically, we all have a "twin soul" that has many of the same traits that we do; likes, dislikes and there will be things that have happened to each of you that you can relate to.

And then there is the connection!

The important thing to note is that you don't know who your twin is. It could be a mom or dad that you know. It could be your own brother or sister. It could even be a best friend.

Male or female.

It certainly isn't referring to being sexual with the person (although if the two of you are developing a relationship that turns sexual, the bond may become that much more deeper).

The truth (as I have come to learn it) is that it refers to the two of you finding each other and coming together in some form. (How ever that manifests itself.)

The interesting thing that I have noticed is that in the past (twenty five plus years ago) if Twin Souls came together, (as in significant others) their relationship would be rocky at best.

More and more Twin Souls are coming together and creating a beautiful relationship. (Nothing is perfect and all relationships take work.) However, "Twins" are finding each other and showing to the world what it truly means to create "Heaven on Earth" with the person that they love.

So if you feel your "Twin" is out there how do find them?

Speaking from experience it can take a long time. You may be searching high and low to no apparent avail. Enjoy the ride and know that when the two of you come together that it with be on Spirit's time (the Universe/God, however you want to say it) and not your time. (Believe me when I say how frustrating this point can be because if you are looking you want to find them as soon as you possibly can and not wait years searching for them.)

It will most likely happen when you least expect it. And you will come to learn that the two of you have reached the point in your lives that (coming together) is perfect.

The other interesting thing is that you never know where he or she might live. (There was 3,000 miles separating my Wife and I.)

I went looking in a chatroom to find people I could actually have a conversation with. Not love, just people I could talk to. So, I did that by finding a room that had only about five or six people in it and Lisa was there.

I always marvel at it because out of about one billion people on this planet that might fall within what I was looking for, we found each other.

That is the miracle of the Twin Souls. Finding each other in a sea of people.

Now, getting back to you . . .

When you find your Twin you will know by the "connection" that you two have. You will be able to feel each other, finish each other's sentence (or at least know what he or she is about ready to say/or you say what they are thinking).

But it is important to remember three things:

That you will come together on Spirit's time table (Universe/God etc.)

You must not be looking for him or her.

And possibly, you may not find them. (Or they are already in your life and you just don't realize it yet.)

Searching for your Twin can be one of the most rewarding things in your life (outside of children) that you are able to do. It also can be just one part of a Life Journey that tells the world:

"This is one element of how I create 'Heaven on Earth', and you can too."

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a path that we cannot always see clearly. Do I say that I forgive you or do I mean it?

How do we know the difference? Especially when we believe we are meaning what we say.

I am currently working on this very issue. There is something in my past that is so dark (done to me) that I have been struggling with this for the past thirty five years.

I am finding that I first need to forgive myself. (Because I blame myself.) The reality is the person that did this to me is the one to blame. I was only five at the time, how could I be at fault? Well, as much as I know that to be true I am not following the path.

Or am I?

It is one that has many turns and corners that I don't know what will be around the next one. I can't really see very far in front of me which makes it all the more challenging.

I need to say to myself that "I forgive you". I forgive me for blaming myself. I forgive the fact that I have spent so long looking for the answer. Most of all I need to forgive the pain and suffering I have had to endure, because I cannot find forgiveness.

With all of that being said, how do I know that I am truly on the path of Forgiveness?

The struggle in me is like a very rocky road. It feels like a gauntlet. I do know that stuff is starting to shake loose. This is because I am learning about my inner child. My inner child, (the wounded one) has been, for the past thirty five years, keeping me from finding the Forgiveness that I seek.

All my wounded child knows is to create a wall around myself. I hear it say "this will protect you". But that couldn't be further from the truth. All that does is stop me from dealing with whatever I need to deal with. It also shuts people out of my life. Especially the ones that I love most.

How is that "protecting" me? Who is that really protecting?

Well, of course when you are a child you don't think like an adult. You think like a child. You act out (or act within) because you don't know any better.

("Acting out" might be throwing a temper tantrum to someone. "Acting within" is having that same temper tantrum to yourself. Inside your own mind. Neither one is a healing solution.)

I have come to believe that this wall is my wounded child's way of protecting himself. Not me, but I am one and the same, so this has a direct impact on me, of course.

I am reaching the point of saying to my child "I no longer need the 'wall'". I am reaching the point of saying, "thank you for helping me through all of these years, now I would like to do something different. It is okay that you did that because you thought that was right. Well I thought that too. However, now I would like you to trust me when I say that we can truly heal by working on our past. We can heal together."

Forgiveness is not an easy road. One day I am in a good place, the next I am shaken to the core. However, I am healing. I really do feel that this journey is worth the effort.
