Life After Awareness | Do You Let The Universe Take Control?

[Music] once you become aware do you have to have a plan of where you're going or do you leave that up to the universe to bring that to you for you then to make the choice that's many people have been asking that question do you have a plan to where you're going or does that just happen when you are in touch with the creative power within you either way may be the case for some people something just spontaneously and organically grows and before they know it they are engaged in some inspired and empowered activity it may start very small and they may not even know that how it's going to grow and develop it's just the the consciousness takes over and they didn't plan it sometimes it's just an example you could have a musician who is just laughs playing this instrument and then English is at a street corner playing his instrument and then somebody comes and says oh this is great why don't you try come to a studio and it can develop from there without him having had any plan just enjoying the doing for others something may come to them suddenly a mental an image of something that wants to put it that way I say that wants to be created it's not so much I want to create this when something comes to you from a deeper level it feels more like that this wants to be created so it comes a name or thought even comes to use and then he suddenly know what it is that wants to be created through you and then one could say that you have a plan but the plan is very different from the plans that the ego had when you were still trapped in ego structures because whatever plan the ego has it's very limited by its needs the ego really seeks itself through its plans it seeks an enhancement of itself so those are the plans that the ego creates and they are flawed deeply flawed and whatever action you take in order to carry out the egos plans it's also going to be deeply flawed and will bring about a lot of heartache and problems and creates problems more up for yourself and others and you get it's it's hard it's a struggle that's always a sign to this place the ego somewhere that's it's as you're struggling I'm not talking about intensity things that clients so you have ego plans they are really there's always a hidden self seeking in whatever the plan might be the ego when it comes through the ego it's a hidden it's a hidden form of self seeking but the plans that I'm talking about here come from the deeper level within yourself that's why I I usually say not that you want to create this or that but it wants to be created through you and so there is a the deeper the unconditioned wants to create form through you because it loves the creation or form how do I know that we'll just look around and you see that the universe loves to create multiplicity a incredible multiplicity of life-forms everywhere throughout the cosmos just planet Earth alone just look at the billions of life-forms so obviously the universe enjoys the creation of form and it has some purpose that we cannot conceptually rationally intellectually fully understand although we can have an inkling of why but we cannot fully understand what the ultimate purpose of the creation of forms is yes we have an inkling I sometimes talk of it but one thing is certain the universe enjoys that consciousness enjoys the play of form and it can happen through you and it's deeply enjoyable so something may come to you then it's something that and then you can say oh I have a plan it'll be inspired and there's no self-seeking in it in other words you're not looking to whatever it is that wants to be created through you you're not looking to it for happiness or self enhancement or fame or even or wealth that those things may come you may get frame you may get wealth you may get those things as byproducts but that's not the reason why this creation happens through you the there is no self seeking and yet whatever this the ego would have sought for itself may come to you as the adding on as Jesus project thinks maybe added on if there's an enormous energy output from you into the world it's not yours of course there's no personal energy through pre misperception but if you become a channel for that Universal energy then of course things will come back to you even usually also in material form so there will be if there's an enormous outflow an enormous giving not yours but as a channel things will come back to you because if you give out of the universe the universe gives back so you may enjoy wells but it would be just an adding onto or you might give part of it or a way or all of it whatever it is that you feel it's right for you just so you can to summarize for some there's just a spontaneous evolution of the creative impulse into the external and it happens through them without any prior plan for others something arises something in their minds and saying yes this is what I need to do this is what wants to come into being through me I feel that very strongly and then you take action and important is not be aware of the energy field behind the action that you take so that you don't lose the presence because the ego even there can still take over if any action you take in order to achieve something if you if stress and negativity come in when obstacle you find obstacle because there's always some obstacle that you encounter when you begin to create something new there will be some obstacles there will also be enormous help coming not necessarily immediately perhaps immediately but at some point you will notice an influx of supportive energy but you may also encounter obstacles in the form of people who don't want you to create something new people who are so stuck in their mind patterns they resist anything new so that's a very common thing or obstacles in some other forms so if then if you encounter an obstacle and there's negativity or attack you're attacking then you'll lose quickly losing power the ego is attempting to take over so whenever you are trying hard or struggling or stress arises stress is another indicator that you are no longer fully aligned with the power within then is you become stressed upset anxious complaining attacking somebody you're losing power quickly so that's a good indicator whenever you engage in creative action manifesting this or that is stress arising now I'm not saying that they cannot there's not going to be an intense energy behind when you are engaged in creative activity there is intense energy behind it which from an external viewpoint can sometimes be misinterpreted almost as stress but it's not stress at all is just intensity of energy behind creation it is but it's joyful it's it's intense but joyful and you can you can feel in that intensity when you are in the midst of some creation happening through you enormous intensity of energy and that's very different from stress stress is always they say it's not flowing but this it this intensities is flowing and it deals with ops tree the intensity deals with obstacles in a very different way from the ego the intensity can sweep away obstacles or it can transform obstacles into something helpful even humans it doesn't attack another thing to be yes you find obstacles when you create something but as I just mentioned also you encounter the phenomenon of being supported if if if your creation is aligned with what the universe wants then it becomes enormous ly empowered it's like riding on a huge wave somebody wrote a poem or something about it was it Shakespeare it starts with there is a tide in the affairs of men and if can't remember the rest but so if you catch that tide which is the tide of something wanting to be created through you and that movement and Jen you're riding on this enormous wave and at some point the creation then happens and so then that wave comes to an end and then there may be a time period when there's more of a withdrawal before new creation happens so that varies from person to person it's exciting too it's wonderful to be to be part of that because it's a it's something is an entirely new way of being coming to this planet
