There is a very old joke that is
very appropriate to exploring the infinity of Creation.
The joke is, “How do you eat an elephant?”
The reply is, of course, “One bite at a time.”
In many ways understanding Creation is an elephant we wish to eat.
The only way to do it is one bite at a time. It is to look at one
principle, aspect or concept at a time. It is then necessary to
realize it will take a long, long time to sample each part and
aspect of creation. In fact, it will take an infinite number of
experiences to sample each part. And, it will take another infinite
number of experience to experience each part as it can be
experienced. That is a long, long time.
However, there are a few easier ways that build on the
lessons learned by others. There is the old proverb which
states, “An individual learns from their experiences, a wise
individual learns from the experiences of others, a fool never
learns.” There is no reason why we cannot become wise and learn from
what others have experienced.
The question is, what exactly have others experienced that can tell
us about the infinity of Creation? The answer is surprisingly simple
but rather difficult to see. Given the number of views of Creation,
the number of ways in which Creation is explained, and the volume of
information and personal experiences any one individual can give as
to why their view of Creation is correct, we are left with one
question. Given the fact that no one seems to consciously lie about
what they believe about Creation, the question becomes, “Is there a
way to view Creation such that whatever one believes about Creation
they will have an experience of that belief to support the truth of
their belief?”
The answer is yes. It is that, “The energy of Creation will mold
itself to give an experience of whatever consciousness focused its
attention and awareness for the environment in which it finds
itself.” It may be hard to believe but it is really a
direct consequence of physics and what many mystics have always
taught.
With this piece of understanding, we can then figure out how to
figuratively eat the elephant of Creation.
One way is by story or myth. Story is
the traditional spiritual approach. It attempts to address more of
the “why?”. In many way the story approach is actually a
consciousness view or perspective of Creation. This view is
reflected in the
Creation Story for the Creativity Perspective
One way is by model. The use of a model is the traditional physics
approach. The model attempts to addresses more of the “how?”. In
many ways the model approach is actually an energy view or
perspective of creation. The model approach is reflected in
Creativity Physics
One way is to start where we are and become the creator/Creator who
desires to experience its creation/Creation.
This is the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity Approach
One way is by creating a set of “bit size” pieces and use a
Building Block
Approach. It is a working level approach. Here we don’t care
about how and why things are the way the are. The interest is best
expressed as “just tell us what to do.” . Other than the philosophy
which creates the building blocks, building blocks allows us to
assemble and use in the way we wish to create what we desire. There
is no “correct” way to use them
The traditional
Tarot
in many ways is one such building block approach historically used
as is the I Ching, Runes and the like. What needs to be understood
about any tool which attempts to characterize the infinity of
Creation into a finite set of building blocks, cards or whatever is
that something will always be missing. No matter how accurate a set
is created, the infinite cannot be properly characterized by the
finite set. The best we can get is an approximation. The
recommendation is to use what is effective for our creative endeavor
but realize we are biased in our approach with any set of building
blocks we use. We will need to become aware of the intent
which lies behind the divination tool that we use to know what is
does and does not address.
Nevertheless, a
set of building blocks
the “Creation
Building Blocks,” has been developed that address the principles
and concepts that seem to most influence or affect our creativity.
The intent behind the creation of these building blocks is to help
us understand how we create our experiences and the
reality
we experience so we can claim
our birthright as beings possessing an uunlimited creativity
and become conscious creators in accord with the desires of our
creative spirit. The web site,
Creation Building Block Creative Guidelines address some ways in which
to use these building blocks.
