Life Is Limitless if We Embrace The Mystery

When we embrace the mystery of life and open to each new insight life affords us, feedback from our multidimensional-selves enables our consciousness expansion and adds new and vibrant meaning to life.

"Abandon the urge to simplify everything, to look for formulas and easy answers, and to begin to think multidimensionally, to glory in the mystery and paradoxes of life, not to be dismayed by the multitude of causes and consequences that are inherent in each experience -- to appreciate the fact that life is complex."
  ~M. Scott Peck


"Science can point out dangers, but science cannot turn the direction of minds and hearts. That is the province of spiritual powers within and without our very beginnings-powers that are the mysteries of life itself."
   ~Oren Lyons,Haudenosaunee Faith-keeper

 What is the value of multidimensional thinking; you might ask?
Why are we being called upon, at this time, to think multidimensionally?

"We are being called to radically shift our awareness into a whole new paradigm of understanding.  The shift is from third dimensional thinking; time, space, matter, to multi-dimensional thinking.  It is time now to let go of our resistance and open to new ways of perceiving reality.  Many of the radical earth changes that we are seeing are mirroring to us the need to shift our perception.  As we change and begin to shift, the planet itself will no longer have to take on the role of the catalyst for our growth and we will see a restoration of balance and harmony on our planet.
What can we do to shift our perception....?  We can begin by taking our place as planetary healers by stepping fully into our unique gifts and forms of service.  We can begin by surrendering to the flow of universal energies that are always available to support us in developing our highest potential or power.  And we can let go of the illusion that we as individuals don’t make a difference.
We each have a calling or spiritual destiny that is essential to the whole; to the healing of the planet.  As we step into full awareness of this truth we receive increasing guidance from the divine souls that have come before us.  The only thing that prevents this guidance from happening is our illusion of separation; the belief in the limitation of third dimension reality."
   ~James Jarvis

If Mr. Jarvis is correct we have a true responsibility to engage in multidimensional thought and reflection. From this thought platform we open ourselves to awareness of life that is certainly not traditional in the Western view of the world; though it is reflective of indigenous peoples and Eastern thought models.

To best illustrate one possible benefit to opening up our thinking; let me offer you the following video. While engaging with the video, open yourself to new possibilities or both thought and action.





What did you discover? How might your thinking change as a result of this experience? What new thought pathways might you now consider exploring?

"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."
     ~Wayne Dyer 

As always I hope you gained valuable insights, here, that will incite you to proactively engage change in ways that add to your enlightenment.

Coherence: Getting a closer look into your Vibrational Relationships


Defines coherence; as "integration of diverse elements, relationships, or values."

"What is quantum coherence? This refers to circumstances when large numbers of particles can collectively cooperate in a single quantum state..."






Roger Penrose
 

"A quantum coherent state thus maximizes both global cohesion and also local freedom! Nature presents us with a deep riddle that compels us to accommodate seemingly polar opposites..."






Mae-Wan Ho, The Rainbow and the Worm


"Understanding without love is impossible, as is also love without understanding."

~David Bohm~






 

Engaging and Embracing Coherence awareness and insights may well lead to individual and collective consciousness expansion; throughout the world!

 Perhaps sharing her thoughts with us, the author of Countdown to Coherence, Hazel Courteney
will expand our individual and collective insight into just what Coherence may mean; to all of us.












Hazel continues as she explains the advantage of becoming a coherent person. Please listen to her with an open and heart-centered approach.







"There's no unique criterion for coherence, but you have to be sensitive to incoherence.  And as we've said, the test for incoherence is whether you're getting the results you don't want."
    ~David Bohm

 "Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you."               ~Richard Bach

When you offer a vibration, the Universal forces are working in concert with each other in order to satisfy you. You really are the center of the Universe. ~ Abraham (Esther Hicks)




As you view the following video, Change of Thoughts, imagine a world where your thoughts, feelings and actions all formed coherent and effective strategies that deliver your dreams!











As always, seek insights that do incite change that keeps you smiling and happy from the inside-out.

10.10.10, Opening to Ehanced Perspective

Fellow journeyers, today's post focuses upon the opening to enhanced perspective made available by 10-10-10's global meditation and connection to a new inner portal which leads to unlimited: peace, personal power and prosperity for all.

"The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us."
   ~Black Elk

 10-10-10 aligns each of us who is dedicated to her/his empowerment and enlightenment with greater awareness and insight into oneness and the interrelated nature of our world.

"The caterpillar trusts his maker that all is well. He does not cling to his old garment and thus is transformed into a magnificent butterfly. There is no pain, it is a natural transmutation. So it is with us. As the chrysalis is the bridge between caterpillar and butterfly, so is True perception the bridge between separation and Oneness. We are transmuting into a new state of Being. Clinging to our caterpillar stage, our old ways of judgment, we shall never learn to fly into the dawn of a new day."
   ~Peter Erbe

 Now is your time; our time. Now is the time for each or us and all of us who are seeking personal and global enlightenment to step further into the light and share our individual and collective insights with one another.
Now is our time for worldwide collaborations focused upon making our world a better place; not for some select few but for all.
Now is the time for unconditional love and acceptance to guide our individual and group action.
Now is the time for Insight to Incite Change which works for us all!

Please take a few minutes now to enjoy Roger Ingraham's beautiful video, Now is the Time.






Now, as you contemplate your experience of 10.10.10 and sort through your thoughts and feelings; ask yourself these clarifying questions:

  • What new insights have I gained and how are they best implemented in my daily life?
  • How am I able to make a difference in my life and in the world?
  • Who do I feel drawn to collaborate with for positive change?
  • When will I take more time to sort through my thoughts and feelings of this day?
  • Where do I expect to have the greatest impact in my life and affairs?
  • What changes, if any, will I make in my thoughts, feelings and actions to support the new insights that are inciting change within me?
  •  How am I able to modify my thoughts, feelings and actions to align with greater peace, prosperity and personal power?
"Oneness is very simple: everything is included and allowed to live according to its true nature. This is the secret that is being revealed, the opportunity that is offered. How we make use of this opportunity depends upon the degree of our participation, how much we are prepared to give ourselves to the work that needs to be done, to the freedom that needs to be lived."
   ~Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee

As always, remember your insights do incite change; especially when you see life though the lens of unconditional love. ~Dave

Empower Yourself and The World with Your Power-filled Intentions

This is what the old-order consciousness has created in our world.



Is this what you want? Is this what's best for our world?

Fortunately, there is a new global paradigm emerging that provides you and all of us with new choices and new chances to fashion a world we can feel good about. How would you craft an enhanced version of the world?


What is empowerment actually, you might ask?  For this discussion, I prefer the Wikipedia definition.
"Empowerment refers to increasing the spiritual, political, social, or economic strength of individuals and communities. It often involves the empowered developing confidence in their own capacities."    


"The most common way people give up their power
is by thinking they don't have any."

~ Alice Walker ***



Many in the world have, indeed, given up their personal power and domain over their thoughts, feelings and actions. This has come to be, over time, as groups with interest in power and control over the masses have moved to direct their finances and influence over the making of laws and the reinforcing of social customs that favor their individual and collective selfinterests.


"A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both."  ~ former U.S. President,Dwight D. Eisenhower, first inauguraladdress.

In the 1950's, our then Republican President knew of the corrupting influence of greed on our society. Yet, in the many years following his term in office (over 6 decades); we as individuals have been unconsciously willing to give away personal power to political, corporate, social-religous, governmental and faux social-cause organizations.


"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life."  ~Theodore Roosevelt



"The world is governed more by appearance than realities so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it."  ~Daniel Webster

And we did and currently do; pretend to know what is going on when in fact we have been living with a growing sense of frustration and disillusion as our feeling of personal power continues to slip through our collective and individual fingers.

The past only dictates our future experience to the degree we remain focused upon the past and our current thoughts, feelings and actions reflect upon the limited self-love and self- appreciation of our past.
Will we as noted author, teacher and student of the ancient Toltec, Don Miguel Ruiz queries


"...find the courage to break those agreements that are fear-based and claim your personal power."



Power-filled personal Intentions are one of the key ways of offering direction to your combined thoughts and feelings that form the mental model we each have of how our world functions. This mental model in turn fuels our actions.
However we think, emote and act in the direction of something of importance to us ulimiately reflects upon the world we experience.



Here is a video for you to explore, Ten Intentions for a BetterWorld.
As you view this video please consider how the power-filled intentions might effect your world experience. If you applied some or all of these to your mental model; how might things change for you?




"Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else." ~Les Brown


By opening to your personal power; you are affirming your intention to claim power over your life and affairs. Consider, if you will, these possible questions to add to your personal self-dialog.
  • Do I allow fear-based beliefs to occupy my mental model?
  • How much does self-doubt hold me back from pursuing my dreams?
  • What enhanced abilities do I have which I hide from others?
  • How often do my fears move me to remain silent about my true feelings?
  • Am I willing to focus my energies in the direction of my: thoughts; feelings; and actions for my own personal benefit and that of the world?
  • Will I focus upon aligning my thoughts, feelings, and actions in accord with my higher good?
  • How can I best demonstrate my intention to live the life of my powerful dreams?
Aligning with your power-filled intentions is one of the true keys to living a life where you design, determine and develop a world that works for the natural and authentic you.


"What is true of the individual will be to-morrow true of the whole nation if individuals will but refuse to lose heart and hope."
   ~Mohandas Gandhi


 
Are you; are we ready to take on the opportunity afforded when insight incites change? I hope your answer is a resonding, yes!
~Dave Kenyon



"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

     ~Marianne Williamson

Peace, An Inside - Out Experience

Like all prescious gifts; the best one's are those that are first realized within the relationship we have with ourselves. When your thoughts, feelings and your actions are in alignment and peace is your focus; peace becomes your experience.

As transformational leader, Ghandi, expressed it, "As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the 'atomic age' - as in being able to remake ourselves."
Ghandi and other visionaries point out that within the relationship we have with ourselves lies awesome power to create; both internal states and external experiences of life.


This is hardly a new idea, as Roman Emperior, Marcus Aurelius (161-169) understood, "He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe."


Or perhaps you prefer the view of James Allen (1864-1912) philosopher and visionary, who postulated "A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings."

As we keenly experience the numerous stressors found in abundance in todays culture; we long for greater harmony, peace  and personal empowerment within our lives. If this is to be it's up to you and me.


What, if anything, am I able to do to to enhance peace in my world?; you might ask. Well here is one persons viewpoint; it doesn't have to be yours and yet a dialog with one another on what moves us in the direction of peace coupled with individual commitment to focusing upon creating peace will certainly move us all closer.




Please ask yourself the folling questions as you seek greater peace in your life:
  • What beliefs do I have about peace?
  • What bias do I hold unto about the idea of peace, if any?
  • What emotions do I experience when I think about peace?
  • How does my personal behavior reflect an intention toward peace?
  • What, if any, specific beliefs do I have that disempower me?
  • When am I consciously focused upon peace throught my day; my week?
  • How often do I find myself pushing against what is upsetting me rather than to embrace the peace I want?
Your honest dialog with yourself may take you a long way toward your discovery of your pathway through you to peace.  May your journey be rewarded with many insightes that truly incite you to change for your good.

Peace be with you,
Dave Kenyon

We Are All Connected - We are All One; are we ready for this?

"But I'll tell you what hermits realize. If you go off into a far, far forest and get very quiet, you'll come to understand that you're connected with everything." ~ Alan Watts

Alan Watts, a leading thinker and speaker on behalf of the Human Potentials movement, began to open our world culture's awareness of and focus upon the inter-connected relationship between all things.


"This we know; all things are connected like the blood that unites us
We do not weave the web of life, we are merely a strand in it
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves."
                                                                                     ~Chief Seattle

Indigenous peoples, all over the globe, were culturally embewed with this understanding. However, during the period of the European colonialization, beginning in the 15th century, is when the dominant paradigm moved to a "rugged-indivualism" model.

In 1893 then University Wisconsin professor Frederick Jackson Turner read his social analysis entitled "The Significance of the Frontier in American History." In it, he told Americans they were a rugged, self-made race of men, forged in adversity through the pioneering experience, reborn and purified into a breed unique on earth." (All About History)

In the clash of these two cultures and belief systems, belief in the inter-connectedness of all things became, I've discovered through my many years of research and inner-growth, an unintended consequencial disconnectedness for individals and a loss to our collective-awareness.

This morphed, over time, into our current model where the fear-based beliefs of our ego's have become the dominant voice in our collective-heads. Thus creating a society without the underpinning of core values and sense of global social responsibility. We are trying to remember; what we do to another, we are also doing to ourself.
                                  
                       

"Every act, thought, and choice adds to the permanent mosaic: Our decisions
ripple through the universe of consciousness to affect the lives of all.  Every act or decision made that supports life, supports all life, including our own."
                                               ~David R. Hawkins, MD, PHD
                                                      Truth vs. Falsehood 2005


Yet, there is a longing within each of us and within our collective consciousness for enhanced feelings of:
  • connectedness 
  • inner-peace
  • love
  • community
  • self-love and acceptance
  • competence
  • Freedom to authentically live who we are

"Man can no longer live his life for himself alone. We realize that all life is valuable and that we are united to all this life. From this knowledge comes our spiritual relationship with the universe."
                                                                           ~ Albert Schweitzer

 This consciousness expansion becomes our individual and collective need; moving together to a new paradigm where each of us:

  • has the "ability to perceive the vibration and light that make up the physical world at a much higher level".

  • by "realizing and using her/his power to create her/his world".

  • is empathetic

  • is fearless

  • is tolerant

  • is compassionate

  • and all of "humanity will be able to evolve not between generations, but within a generation".    ~with credit to The Luminous Way Foundation

Please consider how you would answer these few following questions for yourself as you take a few minutes to relax and watch the beautiful video by my friend Franz, Changing Seasons.
  •   How is your current mental model working for you; are you happy and at-peace   with your life as it currently is?
  •   To what degree are you holding on to the scarcity-matrix; for fear of change?
  •   To what degree do you enter into relationship with The Creator Energy, with     focused intention blended with total belief that you deserve your anticipated outcome?
  •  What actions, if any, are you taking to upgrade your mental model to include unconditional love, acceptance and forgiveness of yourself?
  •  In what ways are you open to and embracing of change? It is the only constant in Nature.
  • What is the nature of your relationship with yourself; the most-vital one you have.
  • How specifically are you vibrationally in alignment with enlightened consciousness




My fellow traveler, I appreciate your time and attention to the expression of where I see our culture moving and allowing me to express yet one man's view of the global change and how to thrive within it as the new transformational paradigm emerges.

My warmest regards and wishes for your highest good,

Dave Kenyon

Remembering 9-11 by focusing opon Creating Peace in Our World




Today on 9-11, let us move forward in our thinking to a place where our consciousness becomes expanded to consider employing the "science of peace" as a vehicle to create genuine world peace. The video below is a brief discussion between film-maker, John Lynch and Dr. John Hagelin, quantum physicist, on how applying understanding the science of consciousness or the 'unified field' to elavate ourselves toward world peace. Please take a moment and view this powerful video.



"The problem with humanity is that it's not in its right mind." ~Gandhi

Gandhi, the great Indian leader and world change agent knew that in order for true change to occur a change in fundamental consciousness was necessary.

Einstein cautioned us that, "The significant problems we face cannot be resolved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." In order to change from a planet where we move from war to war and conflict to conflict we need to consider developing a new consciousness; a new way of thinking about how we co-relate with each other.

Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes shared his profound awareness with us all when he proclaimed; "The great thing in this world is not so much where we are, but in what direction we are moving.

In order for our world to replace conflict-orientation as a solution to our differences and replace that mental model with one that is peace-oriented; a shift in consciousness must occur.

What is consciousness, one might ask? Professor Ashok Sharma, a former professor of Applied Physics, and a scientist at Harvard University, postulates that "consciousness is a non-physical entity, which is essentially different from the four basic entities of space, time, energy and matter of the conventional science. Consciousness does not have any physical attribute or property or action, but is endowed with autonomous will power of creation, retention and annihilation of the knowledge of an individual or that of the universe."

Janos Vaszary, Hungarian Artist -"Enlightenment"


As Dr. John Hagelin, a quantum physicist, educator, public policy expert, and one of the world’s leading thinkers on the subject of peace explains consciousness; "when we contact this unified field of being, we enliven that unity, that harmony, and that coherence in the collective consciousness of society. And by doing so, everybody seems to flow more harmoniously together."



So, fellow journeyers, my gift to you on this 9/11 rememberence day is the gift of peace; a gift we can share with those who matter to us through our expanded consciousness. Our collective gift to our beautiful planet and all the souls residing here.

Go In Peace,

Dave
