Your Imagination is Your “Fun-house of Creation”

Your Imagination is Your “Fun-house of Creation”

A Message from One:

You are Love, and when you know this without a shred of doubt you become master of your domain. We will explain this a bit. Imagine a house, a house of any kind. What does it look like? Its color? Its size? What does its exterior look like? Its interior? Whatever images come spontaneously to mind are representative of how you feel about yourself, for the experience and the experiencer are one and the same in essence. Your imaginative house can tell you plenty about how you generally feel about yourself—even specifically. Now, we are not asking you to lie on a couch and tell us your deepest thoughts and feelings about your imagined house, nor do we want you to treat it like an inkblot test. (Humor is great for expanding the mental body, by the way! It opens you to new psychic dimensions.) You see, the house you see in your mind is a symbol for the mental body, among other associations. First we asked you what it looks like to you, and now we ask you how it FEELS for you. Does it feel like a warm house, full of love and joy, or does it perhaps feel a bit lonely or sad? You know immediately by how you feel, no question. Any hesitation one might have in imagining what their house looks like, or in taking notice of how it feels is also part of the exercise, and means success. Hesitation is simply doubt (a shade of fear), and affords you an opportunity to question its purpose and whether it really serves you or not. You can actually turn the table on the intellect and begin to DOUBT the doubt itself! This is the positive use of the power of doubt; to courageously use doubt to question the nature of long-held assumptions, habits and beliefs.

Now, your imagined house can help you manifest many answers that you may have been seeking for quite some time. Your house, in fact, represents your imagination. It is a direct line to what many of you call the Higher Self. Using your imagination, we ask you to remove the roof from your house. It is now open to receive gifts from the heavens. Inspiration. You can drop anything into the house, and you can watch your emotional reactions. Nothing is ever static in the imagination, so do not be concerned if the objects seem to take on a life of their own! They may morph into other objects, vanish, or even be affected by “intruder thoughts” that may affect the quality of this exercise for you (such as thoughts about something that happened earlier, or what you may do after this BORING exercise is over!). For some of you reading this, you have such a degree of trust in Spirit that you may be allowing your Higher Self to direct the experience, since the Higher Self is the true master of your imagination. Let’s examine this thought a bit. How is the Higher Self a master of imagination? First of all, it knows ItSelf! “Know thySelf,” as your mystics teach you through the ages. The mystic knows her Self, not her “self.” There is such a huge difference! Knowing thySelf is knowing Love, because the “Capital S” Self can only express itSelf through unconditional love. Your egoic self cannot really be known in the truest sense. It can only be imagined. Your Higher Self is master in the sense that it can only know ItSelf as the Self, not as what it imagines. Beloveds, you are not a flight of fancy, but are Pure, Unconditional Love Itself, infinitely beyond the capacity of concepts and words to convey!

The benefit of even IMAGINING that you are Divine Love is quite powerful in itself, because it expands your self-concepts. If you would see what we see as you dream of a “new you,” or when you laugh, or even cry—you would see a brilliant explosion of colors beyond what your physical eyes can possibly see. Your imagined creations walk, run and play with you in constant interaction, in a wild variety of formats! We are not joking (actually we are, and we still mean everything we say!). Some of you know what we mean by this interaction. Your eyes and ears and all your senses are, in a sense, becoming more multidimensional and “enter-dimensional” to you. By this we mean that you can actually consciously interact and enter-act (psychically ENTER the ACTIONS that you witness and perceive, AKA what you may call “empathy”), intuitively perceiving and compassionately understanding your world on subtler and subtler levels. We want you to take a second, third or even fourth look at those people, places, things and circumstances in your life, if you are not accustomed to this way of looking. You might as well begin with your human self! We would suggest “stalking yourself,” trying to look at your human self when it is asleep—if you know what we mean. (We’re on a roll!) You know that feeling you occasionally get that someone is watching you? Well, what if it was YOU watching yourself?! Perhaps a “past you” or a “future you,” in your terms. Better yet, we ask that you consider that it is ultimately consciousness watching itself. (In India some spiritual traditions call this “watching the watcher.”) Why do we make this suggestion? Unbeknownst to most of you, you are habitual “stalkers” of others. How many of your daily thoughts are about “others?” You would gasp if we gave you an estimate! We know how fun this human experience of “separation” can be, from a Source-perspective, and we are not in judgment. We see your “true colors,” and we must say that they are quite radiant! We only want to remind you of the Love that you are, through these messages, and that YOU CAN LIVE CONSCIOUSLY AS YOUR HIGHER SELF! (A simple meditation: “Stalking the Higher Self.” Try it, have fun, and see what happens! You already know how.)

A few more morsels for you: From our Source-perspective, you are Whole, you are One, as we are—the same exact ONE. (We use the word “we” in describing “us” very playfully, and not as ultimate truth for what this Source-perspective really is. Multidimensionality is not an end, but a means towards realizing Unspeakable True Reality.) You are Whole, even while the “personal you” strives for its dreams. Eventually you will “strive to end all striving” in yourself, and fully surrender to the Love that you are (what many call “enlightenment”). Yes, dreaming of new realities will always be part of your human experience, for this is the nature of incarnation in general—not just human. “You are safely at Home, dreaming of exile (separation from Source),” a very wise master has taught! We ask that you affirm this, beloveds: “As an expression of Source, I am Love in progress of realizing Itself; as Source Itself, I AM, timeless and Whole in Itself.”
