I’ve been contemplating this notion of belief and this notion of truth and really looking deeply at how we create and choose our realities. Reality creation has long been my passion, and in reality creation, we select the vibrations that we choose to experience. So this opens up a bit of a can of worms when we consider truth versus not-truth, that which is true, that which is untrue, that which we believe, and that which we don’t believe.
And when we look at it from a different perspective, really, all of these things have one thing in common, the fact of whether or not you are putting your attention on them. Your attention is what creates the energy field around you, and like attracts like. So whatever your energy field is like, you’re going to get more of that.
This is how we modulate our experience of reality. Some call this reality creation, some call this law of attraction, some call this manifesting. So what is being pushed out in our energy field is equivalent to the notion of asking.
Ask, and you shall receive. It’s a different type of asking than just simply asking a statement consciously, because this type of energetic asking happens from a subconscious and conscious level, and in fact, the subconscious energetics, beliefs, thought forms, etc., actually hold more weight than what we consciously think we want.
That’s why we sometimes get in trouble, thinking we’re creating one thing and then realizing it’s not showing up, and then we wonder why. It’s because of the vast storehouse of energetics, templates, beliefs, thought forms, etc., residing in our subconscious mind.
And these got there from lots of different inputs. This is important to understand as we go about healing or cleaning out the junk from the trunk of our subconscious mind, so that our vibratory abilities to actually experience that which we choose consciously become improved over time. We’ve picked up data, information, ideas, beliefs, thought forms, truths, facts, all these things, decisions, preferences, aversions in our past lives from our early childhood and the people who were around us.
And those people were imprinted by our ancestors, and they, too, lend weight to certain beliefs and thought forms which we then end up having a tendency to think. And some think it may actually end up vibrating in our DNA as certain tendencies, whether that’s genetic disease tendencies or preference tendencies or the way we end up looking, our eye color, all these things. And when you get into energy medicine, you start to learn that so many of these things are very, very changeable, even if they seem, by modern science, to be so-called static, stuck, and forever.
People are even changing their eyesight by their intention, their eye color by intention, these days. Things like this, and we’ll learn more and more about this as we go. And the other level is just simple cultural conditioning.
We’re being imprinted all the time by the conditioning in our culture. So, back to the main topic here, all these things are very related to the main topic. But you’ve got what we call truth, something that’s actually real and actually happened or is actually happening, is a solid fact.
And then this other set of things called beliefs, that which we believe is true, that which we think is true, that which we sense is true, that which we know is true, but it’s still a belief. A belief can give weight in the subconscious and cause attraction power, whether it is true or not. And a truth could be out there being real, but we might not believe it, and therefore, that may not be getting into our experience.
Do you see the little funny area that I’m talking about here? So when we think about truth, I have always wondered why. I read something a long time ago that truth is not of the highest love and light, or of the highest, but truth is not. And I always wondered about that, and I had a download just the last several days about this, and that’s why I am talking about it here today.
So something can be true but not good for us. Something can be true and we don’t believe it. Something can be true and we do believe it.
Something can be true, and we focus a lot of attention on it. Something can be true, and we don’t focus a lot of attention on it. Depending on where our attention goes, that’s what kind of matching energy ends up in our experience.
So it’s almost in one sense, and contemplate this with me because it’s very curious, in one sense truth is almost irrelevant, and I’m sure there are deeper ways of looking at it where what’s true and what’s not true could have great relevance in many, many situations. When we’re talking about reality creation and the force field that you create around you that attracts things like it, truth may not be as important as what you believe. It may not be as important if it’s true or not as to whether you put your focus on it, put your attention on it, and choose to believe in it or not.
And then something that you believe, like a religious belief, like a belief in a certain God or a certain aspect of God being a certain thing or being a certain way, may or may not have ultimate truth in every level to it. It may be an analogy, it may have a deeper meaning or symbolic meaning, and yet you believe it fully. What’s that going to do for you? Well, if it’s a positive belief, it could do a lot for you.
It could cause you to attract into your lifestream, into your aura, things that resonate with that truth. And if that is a beneficial belief, then that will be a benefit to you experiencing a reality that you like. Do you see what I’m getting at here? And it is a little bit of a sticky wicket, right? It causes us to question, well, what is reality? And what am I really doing here? And how do I create? And what about all those people who are experiencing these negative truths out there? Clearly, there’s suffering going on because of certain truths that are happening.
And our heart of compassion goes out and be like, obviously, we want to do something to change that. We definitely have our heartfelt feelings about the difficult truths happening, which people seem to be experiencing negatively. So it’s a large issue and one to deeply contemplate as we progress in what we call this ascension process.
Because what if the magic that we each do in our consciousness by focusing on what is beneficial ends up helping others by strengthening a field of positivity, thereby slowly but surely disallowing other negative energetics and truths, even experiences or facts from getting in there. So if you if we go back to the story of the Buddha, which I often like to talk about, we have Buddha sitting under the Bodhi tree, destined to achieve enlightenment. And in fact, deciding that he was sitting there until he did achieve enlightenment.
Oneness and realization with the divinity within him. Absolute reconciliation with the truth, the ultimate truth of his divine nature. So this is a different kind of truth, right? The truth that we are at one with the divine.
So he’s sitting there in that sacred circle deciding that he is not moving until he achieves this realization of who he really is, his divine nature. He, of course, all the material from the subconscious is coming up to challenge that new reality that he’s creating through his focus. And so Lord Mara, the Lord of Darkness, comes up in various ways in his meditation.
Tries to tempt him away from that still one-pointed thought, focusing on love and compassion and the absolute. First, he brings in visions of his many seductive daughters trying to lure Buddha out of his meditation. And then when that didn’t work, he tries to threaten him with certain demons or energies and warriors.
And then finally an entire army is throwing, you know, launching arrows towards him. But as they approach his field they turn into arrows. Why? He’s got a force field of love around him.
His focus is so purely on the divine, on that state of oneness and wholeness and well-being in the underlying essence of what we might call the ultimate reality. That of peace, harmony, love, well-being, stillness, the stillness of the divine, the full effulgent stillness. That it creates an aura of radiance and love around him that you’ll often see depicted in these pictures.
And the arrows and all the seductions of Lord Mara, the temptations, the seductions, the attacks, they fall to naught. They simply cannot reach him because his consciousness is elevated. Is it true that Mara was out there doing that? Well, probably according to the story, we could say yeah, Mara was actually doing that.
That was a truth. But Buddha was no longer resonating with it. He made a clear decision to choose his reality by his focus on those divine energies.
And this created a force field of love around him. A bubble, a time-space dimension of his own choosing, where what he experienced was pure love. What he experienced was ineffable peace.
What he experienced is union with the Godhead, the divine. Of course, in Buddhism, they don’t talk about the Godhead in the same way. But you get the idea.
He made an energetic and vibrational choice, practicing focusing his attention in a certain way consistently and deeply enough that these samskaric residues, represented by Lord Mara coming up in the subconscious and trying to tempt him away into other thoughts that were not of that high vibration, came to naught. They were no longer successful. And then in the story, I love telling this you may have heard it me say it before, Mara becomes angry when he realizes that Buddha has achieved divine perfect enlightenment.
And Mara says, you may have achieved enlightenment, however, you have no witnesses, so your work is for naught. And this is when we see the Buddha taking his hand and placing it on the earth. And he says, the earth shall be my witness.
And then Lord Mara goes screaming away and disappears into the nothing from which he came. Now, when we talk about the world as a simulation or a hologram, a lot of people are talking about these days lots of concepts running around about what that might be. You know, when we look at the synchronicities that happen, the numbers popping up synchromysteriously, the types of people you run into over and over again, the types of things that are happening that make you realize that there’s way more going on in this world than meets the eye.
It’s like this is weird in a good way, usually. Like the synchronicities are unfolding rapidly. So what is this reality in which we find ourselves? What are these things? How does our consciousness work? What happens when we choose to put our consciousness on these higher vibrations exclusively? My high self showed me a similar thing where she is going about her business, she as a being in a place, you know this is the symbolism, the representation my high self was showing me.
And there are what you might call lower entities or demons, hanging around outside trying to get in. And they just can’t. And I’m like, well, that’s curious.
She’s like, I just choose not to focus on that. I’m putting my attention on what I want to put it on. That’s my free will, my choice.
And I’m like, well, what about that? But who are they? Do you remember them? And she’s like yes I remember who they were before the fall. I remember their aspect before the fall. That’s what she said.
And it’s like, well, don’t you want to help them? And she’s like, well, they haven’t asked for help. And why would I interfere with their free will to experience what they’re experiencing? And I was like oh that’s interesting. So that’s like respect.
And then so what does it become or mean for us here in the earth plane? What does it become and mean when we want to help people who are suffering to not experience these deep negativities anymore that we have become aware of? And what does it mean for us when we’re putting our attention on those things? This leads me to another little thing I quote fairly often from Strega Nona. Strega Nona is a grandma witch, and it’s a children’s book. And in it, Strega Nona says the art of magic is to see and not see.
So what that says to me is we become aware. We are aware. We’re aware of all these conundrums.
And we’re aware that there are different kinds of vibrations out there. We’re aware that there are choice points of all kinds going on in how to experience reality. What we could call positive.
What we could call negative. What we could call benevolent. What we could call evil.
What we could call neutral. So on and so forth. And yet we need to not see them.
We need to see what we choose instead in order to bring the magic of our focus into full play here. Creating that force field of love around us. Bringing ourselves into the fold of a higher vibration.
And thereby no longer experiencing those things in our reality. This leads me to the next thought form of put the oxygen mask on yourself first. Isn’t that what they say in the airplane? Isn’t that an interesting analogy to this conversation? If a world of people who get it one by one, that regardless of whether something is true or not, if they put their attention on it long enough, they’re going to experience something related to it.
Something resonant with it. This is why we’re doing the cleaning of our subconscious. This is why we’re dissolving.
We’re in a mad race to dissolve the debris and detritus in the subconscious mind. Many of us are very well aware of this process underway of cleaning out the junk from the trunk on behalf of all of humanity. Some of our work is actually beyond just for our own personal salvation, which we are working on regularly.
Our own personal redemption. What do salvation and redemption mean here? Well, it means we’re cleaning out all the negative tendencies in our subconscious mind so that we can begin to experience a more positive, holy, harmonious, rejuvenative, happy, joyful reality. That’s all it means.
It’s not religious. It’s a scientific function of cleaning our subconscious mind. Of coming back into harmony with the higher vibrations.
Of rooting out the seeds of destruction and despair and deceit out of our being. So that we don’t have to experience those types of things anymore. As we put the oxygen mask on ourselves first and as we do our service of clearing our ancestral lineages in our past lives, which is what I do and help people with in sessions, and what many many people do in sessions, and which is really important to do right now, either on your own or with help.
As we do this, what we’re doing is we’re rooting out all the tendencies in the unconscious that would cause us to remain in vibrational harmony with these lower frequencies. We’re basically becoming masters. We’re step-by-step graduating from middle school to high school or something or you know depending on where we are like in the larger scheme of things I’m sure there’s beings who are vastly they’re beyond graduate school compared to us right maybe we’re just leaving kindergarten who knows but in any event we’re opening to the truth that our extra terrestrial if you will or whatever they are those higher beings that are our siblings know and cherish these truths that they’ve known for a long time that which goes out comes back.
This is why we learn to become benevolent. This is why we learn to do unto others as we’d have others do unto us. This is why we learn to become kind and forgiving and non-judgmental, because we realize that what goes out of us in this ask this vibrational ask is going to come back into our field.
We have now given permission to it to come into our field. It’s like saying universe yeah, I want more of that, whatever it is, so if we’re judging somebody, then more of that is going to come back to us. Judge not lest you be judged.
This is a scientific principle. It is an actual physics experiment that we are in here. We just forgot, and we got it all mixed up by those who wanted to keep us in the lower planes and dimensions so that they could eat energy, basically, as some people say. Right there is a belief. Right there is a thought. It may be a fact.
Now we are shifting our focus away from those things. We are seeing and not seeing. Yes, I know all that stuff is going on. I know there are all kinds of crazy things going on. Oh my God, it is pretty easy to see that that is the case.
And what do you want in your life? What do you want to focus on? What do you want to bring into your experience? What do you want to model to the rest of humanity?
Are we going to get all tangled up and caught up in all that stuff, or are we going to go into the quiet place, go into our closets and pray in secret, as they say, because it is sacred? We are going to take up the mantle of this practice, this practice of these things which will help us to keep our focus on the benevolent, the beloved, the beautiful, the bountiful. In so doing, we are actually helping the others who are stuck in the lower vibrations.
Is it going to help them for us to dip back down and dive back in and get ourselves all jacked up? Or is it going to help them more to say, “Hey, come on up here. Leave your baggage at the door. You cannot bring that with you, but you can come. Come on, come on up here. The water is fine. Try it out.”
In this way, we raise each other up. We raise each other up. We raise each other up. We get the memo, we integrate the teaching, and we honor all that is as it is—the free will of all beings to experience things. We become the fully activated, awake, aware chooser of our own destiny, our own vibration.
How important is it whether it is true or not? How important is it whether we believe it or not? It is certainly important whether we believe it or not. Whether it is true or not—those are just truths that others are experiencing and that have manifested.
Do we choose to vibrate with them? Is that what we think is benevolent and harmonious? Or do we choose to vibrate with something else, even if we have to make something up to vibrate with it? Practice makes perfect.
Does that mean we are living in delusion, we are sticking our head in the sand? Maybe it means we are living in the illusion of our choosing, as opposed to the illusion of somebody else’s choosing. If it is all illusion, which one do you want to choose: the one that feels good to you, or the one that feels not so good to you?
At the end of the day, that becomes a very obvious choice. The question is: how do we do it? Practice, practice, practice.
Yes, it has been an honor and a delight to consider these things with you here today. I would love to hear from you and see how these ideas land with you, what your thoughts are about them. I would particularly love to invite you into that field of higher consciousness where you focus on love, harmony, well‑being, peace, prosperity, enlightenment, self‑realization, goodness, benevolence, excellence, and to encourage you to continue doing the work of cleaning and clearing the subconscious mind.
It reminds me of that song by the Talking Heads: “I am cleaning, I am cleaning, I am cleaning my brain.” Yes, that is what we are doing. We are cleaning our brain. We are cleaning our nervous system. We are cleaning our subconscious mind of the last remnants of the old fears, the old beliefs, the old thought forms that caused a battle inside of us for our very energy, for our life force.
Where do we want that to be now? How do we make peace with all that is as it is, and still aspire higher into those vibrations and frequencies where we can co‑create new living realities of harmony and love, individually and together?
“There is a field out beyond right doing and wrong doing. I will meet you there.”
