something meaningful to come into your life so that you can finally enjoy what you do. There is more meaning in joy than you will ever need. The waiting to start living, Syndrome, is one of the most common delusions of the unconscious state. Expansion and positive change on the outer level is much more likely to come into your life if you can enjoy what you're doing already, instead of waiting for some change so that you can start enjoying what you do.
Don't ask your mind for permission to enjoy what you do. All you will get is plenty of reasons why you can't enjoy it. Not now, the mind will say. Can't you see I'm busy?
There's no time. Maybe tomorrow you can start enjoying. That tomorrow will never come unless you begin enjoying what you're doing now. When you say, I enjoy doing this or that, it is really a misperception.
It makes it appear that the joy comes from what you do, but that is not the case. Joy does not come from what you do. It flows into what you do and thus into this world from deep within you. The misperception that joy comes from what you do is normal and it is also dangerous because it creates the belief that joy is something that can be derived from something else, such as activity or thing.
You then look to the world to bring you joy, happiness, but it cannot do that. This is why many people live in constant frustration. The world is not giving them what they think they need. Then what is the relationship between something that you do and the state of joy?
You will enjoy any activity in which you are fully present, any activity that is not just means to an end. It isn't the action you perform that you really enjoy, but the deep sense of aliveness that flows into it. That aliveness is one with who you are. This means that when you enjoy doing something, you are really experiencing the joy of being in its dynamic aspects.
That's why anything you enjoy doing connects you with the power behind all creation. Here is a spiritual practice that will bring empowerment and creative expansion into your life. Make a list of a number of everyday routine activities that you perform frequently. Include activities that you may consider uninteresting, boring, tedious, irritating, or stressful, but don't include anything that you hate or detest doing.
That's a case either for acceptance or for stopping what you do. The list may include traveling to and from work, buying groceries, doing your laundry, or anything that you find tedious or stressful in your daily work. Then, whenever you are engaged in those activities, let them be a vehicle for alertness. Be absolutely present in what you do and sense the alert's alive stillness within you in the background of the activity.
You will soon find that you do in such a state of heightened awareness instead of being stressful, tedious, or irritating, it's actually becoming enjoyable. To be more precise, what you are enjoying is not really the outward action, but the inner dimension of consciousness that flows into the action. This is finding the joy of being in what you are doing. If you feel your life lacks significance, or it's too stressful or tedious, it is because you haven't brought that dimension into your life yet.
Being conscious is what you do. Being conscious in what you do has not yet become your main aim. But the new Earth arises, but the new Earth arises as more and more people discover that their main purpose in life is to bring the light of consciousness into this world and so use whatever they do as a vehicle for consciousness. The joy of being is the joy of being conscious.
Awakened consciousness then takes over from ego and begins to run your life. You may then find that an activity that you have been engaged in for a long time naturally begins to expand into something much bigger when it becomes empowered by consciousness. Some of those people who, through creative action enrich the lives of many other simple, simply do what they enjoy doing most without wanting to achieve or become anything through that activity. There may be musicians, artists, writers, scientists, teachers or builders where they may bring into manifestation new social or business structure and lighten business.
Sometimes for a few years, their sphere of influence remains small, and then it can happen that suddenly or gradually a wave of creative empowerment flows into what they do and their activity expands beyond anything they could have imagined and touches countless others. In addition to enjoyment, an intensity is now added to what they do and with it comes the creativity that goes beyond anything an ordinary human could accomplish. But don't let it go to your head because up there is where a remnants of ego may be hiding. You are still an ordinary human.
What is extraordinary is what comes through you into this world. But that essence you share with all beings, the 14th century Persian poets and Sufi master halfics expresses this truth beautifully. I am a whole in the flute that the Christ's breath moves through. Listen to this music and let's enjoy this.
1021 continuing with the third one is called enthusiasm. Then there's another way of creative manifestation that many come to those that may come to those who remain true to their inner purpose of awakening. Suddenly one day they know what their other purpose is. They have a great vision, a goal and from then on they work toward implementing that goal.
Their goal or vision is usually connected in some way to something that one that on a smaller scale they're doing and enjoy doing already. This is where the third modality of awakening during arises enthusiasm. Was that understandable? And enthusiasm means there's deep enjoyment in what you do plus the added element of a goal or a vision that you work towards.
When you add a goal to the enjoyment of what you do, the energy field or vibrational frequency changes. A certain degree of what we might call structural tension is now added to the enjoyment and so turns into enthusiasm. At the height of creative activity fueled by enthusiasm there will be enormous intensity and energy behind what you do. You will feel like an arrow that is moving toward the target and enjoying the journey.
To an onlooker it may appear that you are under stress but the intensity of enthusiasm has nothing to do with stress. When you want to arrive at your goal more than you want to be doing what you're doing you become stress. The balance between enjoyment and structural tension is lost and the latter has won. When there is stress it is usually a sign that the ego has returned and you are cutting yourself off from the creative power of the universe.
Instead there is only the force and strain of egoic wanting and so you have to struggle and work hard to make it. Stress always diminishes both the quality and effectiveness of what you do under its influence. There's also a strong link between stress and negative emotions such as anxiety and anger. It is toxic to the body and is now becoming recognized as one of the main causes of the so called the generative disease such as cancer and the heart disease.
Does that make sense? Yeah. Unlike stress enthusiasm has a high energy frequency and so resonates with the greater power of the universe. This is why Ralph Waldo Emerson said nothing great has ever been achieved without enthusiasm.
The word enthusiasm comes from ancient Greek n and theos meaning god. The related word enthusiasm means to be possessed by a god. With enthusiasm you will find that you don't have to do it all by yourself. In fact there is nothing of significance that you can do by yourself.
Sustained enthusiasm brings existence a way of creative energy and all you have to do then is ride the wave. Enthusiasm brings an enormous empowerment into what you do so that all those who have not accessed that power would look upon your achievements in awe and may equate them with who you are. You however know the truth that Jesus pointed to when he said I can have my own selves do nothing. Unlike egoic wanting which creates a position in direct opposition to the intensity of his wanting.
Enthusiasm never opposes. It is non-confrontational. Its activity does not create winners and losers. It is based on inclusion not exclusion of others.
It does not need to use and manipulate people because it is the power of creation itself and so does not need to take energy from some secondary source. The ego's wanting always tries to take from something or someone. Enthusiasm gives out of its own abundance. When enthusiasm encounters obstacles in the form of adverse situations or uncooperative people, uncooperative people, it never attacks but walks around them or by yielding or embracing turns.
Or embracing turns the opposing opposing energy into a helpful one. The foe into a friend. Enthusiasm and the ego cannot coexist. One implies the absence of the other.
Enthusiasm knows where it is going but at the same time it is deeply at one with the present moments. The source of its aliveness, its joy, and its power. Enthusiasm wants nothing because it lacks nothing. It is at one with life and no matter how dynamic the enthusiasm inspired activities are, you don't lose yourself in them.
And there remains always still but intensely alive space at the center of the wheel. A core of peace in the midst of activity that is both the source of all understand, oh sorry I'm going to read that again. And there remains always still but intensely alive space at the center of the wheel. A core of peace in the midst of activity that is both the source of all untouched by it all.
Through enthusiasm you enter into full alignment with the outgoing creative principle of the universe. But without identifying with its creation, that is to say without ego. Where there is no identification, there is no attachment, one of the great sources of suffering. Once a wave of creative energy has passed, structural tension diminishes again and joy in what you are doing remains.
Nobody can live in enthusiasm all the time. A new wave of creative energy may come later and lead to renewed enthusiasm. When the return movement toward the dissolution of form sits in, enthusiasm no longer serves you. Enthusiasm belongs to the outgoing cycle of life.
It is only through surrender that you can align yourself with the return movement, the journey home. To sum up, enjoyment of what you are doing combined with the goal or vision that you work toward becomes enthusiasm. When though you have a goal, what you are doing in the present moment needs to remain the focal points of your attention or the otherwise you will fall out of alignment with the universal purpose. Make sure your vision or goal is not an inflated image of yourself and therefore a concealed form of ego.
Such as wanting to become a movie star, a famous writer, or a wealthy entrepreneur. Also, make sure your goal is not focused on having this or that, such as mentioned by the sea, your own company, or ten million dollars in the bank. And a large image of yourself or a vision of yourself having this or that are all static goals and therefore don't empower you. Instead, make sure your goals are dynamic.
That is to say, point toward an activity that you are engaged in and through which you are connected to other human beings as well as to the whole. Instead of seeing yourself as a famous actor and writer and so on, see yourself inspiring countless people with your work and enriching their lives. Feel how that activity enriches or deepens not only your life but that of countless others. Feel yourself being an opening through which energy flows from the unmanifested source of all life through you for the benefit of all.
All this implies that your goal or vision is then already a reality within you on the level of mind and of feeling. Enthusiasm is the power that transfers the mental blueprints into physical dimension. That is the creative use of mind and what is why there is no wanting. And that is the creative use.
Yeah, you cannot manifest way away. That is the creative use of mind and that is why there is no wanting involved. You cannot manifest what you want. You can only manifest what you already have.
You may get what you want through hard work and stress but that is not the way of the new earth. Jesus gave the key to the creative use of mind and to the conscious manifestation of foreign when he said, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.
