Chapter 6: Creating Our Own Realities through Imagination, Perception and Projection

Creation is Imagination or “image initiation.” Every time that we interpret and activate the images that come into our minds, we are effecting the universe.”

Imagination like truth, does not do anything by itself. It has to be programmed and energized. Albert Einstein said: “Imagination is more important than

Question: How do you program and energize your imagination?

The Prison of Concepts p 132

When a particular thought or concept is repeated enough it forms a groove in the brain. Then that particular concept and thoughts and emotions and actions will be recalled and repeated over and over.

Question: What concepts are programmed into your mind? How did they get there?

The way to replace or reprogram a groove is to stop – say this “---” has no power over me. The truth is………

Another way to shift or replace a groove is to Pay attention to the persons you hang out with or listen to. Jesus even stated: “Touch me not: for I am not yet ascended.” John 20:17 What does that mean metaphysically?

Everyone you meet or know has a different concept of who you are. And like an actor you can wear as many different costumes/concepts of yourself as you would like. AND – know that none of them are totally true – not even the one you hold of yourself.

Question: What concepts do you hold about yourself?

Ascension or Enlightenment happens when you let go of all concepts and be free to be in the moment. And it also means that you can then be free to use any of the concepts freely without being used by them.

The Subtle difference between concepts and perceptions.

Concepts are objective – they have taken form

How we perceive circumstances is subjective.

· In the beginning is the Word – and the Word is made flesh.

· In the beginning are our Perceptions and they become our formed concepts.

· Change happens when we change the way we perceive ourselves or others. When we change our concepts the appearance will change.

Question: Why is judgement something to avoid?

“When we judge we are acknowledging that the concept we entertain has power, and, by doing so through our perception, we give it power. We become what we judge. There are no two ways about it. Whatever law we perceive, we dignify and empower.” Starcke p 139

Spiritual Healings are the result of altered perceptions. Explain

“Your faith has made you whole.” Matthew 9:22

Question: How Do our Perceptions keep us in grooves of Dis-Ease?

Our Own Projection “gets us off the hook,” and “back on the hook.”

Prayer is the Elixir - It is the language of the spirit that matters. Maybe spending time in a silent retreat could be just what love is asking for.

Chapter 7: Spiritual Androgyny

Question: What comes up for you about the title of this chapter?

Genesis 1:27 Male and Female created he them. Maybe “them” meant having the characteristics of both male and female.

· Androgony is not an idea. It is an experience – a soul experience. A Soul without form or gender.

· Choice is not between this or that but rather a matter of listening to what the Spirit dictates at the moment.

Question: How does this expand your awareness of It’s All God?

The Science of Complements: Everything at a finite level needs a complement to complete it.

· Complement means “to complete.” Examples: Right and left brain dark and light; feminine and male, yin and yang.

· Jesus gave us two commandments that complemented each other.

1. Love God

2. Love our Neighbor or the world of effects also.

· Evil: Something that is desired that does not come about in the “right way.” Wrong action follows. Feelings/Comments?

The Obscenity of Absolutes:

Absolutes are the enemies of Complements (both/and)

“absolute” comes from a Latin word (Absolutus) “to free, to let loose.”

Yet it seems to mean exactly the opposite.

Always Never Only When do you use those words? How do they box us in?

Are There Any Limits in Law?

Humankind seems to want laws to live by so that choices don’t have to be made. Choices put responsibility on us.

UNITY: One Divine Thought Pray/Meditate Act

Jesus basically taught that is we approach the law objectively we would sin or fall short. If we approach the law subjectively in loving and compassionate ways the law would easily be fulfilled.

The Devil and Integration

The Devil is anything that encourages us to believe in duality.

The Double Thread helps us begin to feel integration within our soul. P 158 Integrity is the same word as integration. Persons with integrity have the ability to integrate their subjective spiritual principles with their objective material achievements. Those who have integrity demonstrate inclusiveness. Those who have gratitude acknowledge integration.

The Road to the spirit of integration and wholeness is paved with the principle of priority. P 161

· In the beginning God

· Love God with all your heart and soul and mind

· Seek First the kingdom of God

Question: How do we know if we are in integrity?

By Our Fruits – You shall know them by their fruits. Matthew 7:16
