The goal of the creativity perspective is to be
freely and readily able to enter
the most creative state of being is a state of being when
necessary. To adopt a creativity perspective you will find you will
ultimately need to revisit the reasons why you are not capable of
entering this state of being at any time and at any place. You will
need to do the work to regain this ability and many of these reason
go back to childhood. Some of which go back into childhood before
you developed the conscious mind to know exactly why you developed
the response pattern to life that you did. In these cases you will
need to rely on your
intuitive guidance and how and what you feel to guide you. Mind
will be of little use to explore the origins of the response
patterns to life that develop before it became consciously aware of
what was occurring.
The process to go back and deal with the reasons that prevent you
from reentering this creative state is not as difficult as mind
would have you believe. You can do it in a
faster, gentler and easier way than what mind thinks is
possible. To regain the ability to readily enter that most creative
state of being you can begin by
holding your creative sacred. To hold your creativity sacred,
there are two things you will need to do. One is to have
clarity of intent and hold a
single point focus on that intent. The other is to develop the
awareness of what you feel as is used in the
internal compass, to both guide you to this state and to guide
your exploration and to exactly what you need to do to hold it
sacred.
It needs to be understood that you remember the feeling of this
state of being. You can become consciously aware of the feeling as
you move closer to this state of being. The awareness of your
feeling can take you back to it.
Learning how to use your internal compass will help you to
reenter this state of being. There is an ancient recommendation to
have good thought, good words and good deeds. Sound advice, but how
do you know what are good for you for you are a unique being. The
answer lies in what you feel. You can feel what thoughts, words and
deeds are good. You can feel which give you feel of expansion,
fullness of being, wonderment at creation and/or other similar
feelings such that you know what serves and doesn’t serve you. You
know if the thoughts you hold, words you speak and deeds that you do
are allowing your creative spirit to freely unfold or you are
causing it to become restricted and/or limited in some way. Here
again, your
internal compass can help guide you.
When one does these two things to learn how to hold their creativity
sacred, one can then pursue a fast or slow way to regain that
creative state. The fast way is to directly ask your intuition,
“What do I need to do to recreate that state of play?” Then,
honor the intuitive guidance that you get. Acting to honor the
intuitive guidance causes you to enter a state of play. That play,
if you can allow it, can evolve into spontaneous play and in the
process reveal how and why you shut down your ability to be in that
state of spontaneous and innocent childlike play of discovery and
exploration of oneself and one’s world. You then need to ask your
intuitive guidance how to address the issues that have surfaced to
regain your play. Here again, honoring your intuitive guidance you
get, holding focus and iterating the process will give you the
fastest and easiest way but not necessarily always the gentleness.
The gentleness is added through a combination of wisdom and learning
from one’s own experiences and the experience of others and learning
to use and follow one’s internal compass to know what serves and
doesn’t serve one’s being. When you combine all of these you can
create a
faster, easier and gentler way than what mind would direct.
The other slower way is to create the space for the understanding
within one’s being to take root and grow within your being. It has
been observed that if an individual is able to focus inward and hold
an inward focus to explore and “pull the sting” on the “why” behind
what one experiences, they can then surface exactly how and why they
are creating their experiences. In doing so, an awareness grows
within about the process and how we create our experiences. It may
take on the order of several years but there is nevertheless an
expanding awareness about how we are creating or have created the
experiences we have. To reveal the information as to how we are
creating our experiences, one needs to be told little to nothing.
All that is needed is for the individual to be held accountable to
holding an inward focus and hold them accountable to what they see
within their own being. Then, help them to understand what they see
and to honor what they see.
An important point about both of these approaches is that the
individual ultimately does it their own way and in a way that is
directed from within. In doing so, they access both the inner and
outer
creative power/Creative Power. If they follow their internal
guidance and do it their own way, in the end they arrive at the same
conclusions as others who have explore the nature of creativity and
Creation before them. They will come to see the truth of what is and
it will come from within their own being. It will be their truth. It
will not be the truth of another. They may even find they access the
Source of Creation.
Our problem is our mind thinks it knows the way and/or that the
way it understands is the way. Or it thinks the way of another is
somehow better or The Way. The truth of the matter is we each have
our own unique way to access the truth of how and why we create the
experiences we have. That way is determined by feeling. It is not
based on what mind thinks and believes. There are things we can
learn from others. But the path is within and unique to our own
being. No one can give it to us or tell us what it is even our own
mind cannot do so. We have to allow ourselves to experience what
works and doesn’t work in our lives and use what allows us to regain
our state of play.
There a truth about how we create our experiences such that each of
us can come to a common understanding of that truth if we focus on
how we create our experiences. Given the nature of physical Creation
and what science has taught us about Creation, we know there are
some common rules to physics independent of what an individual
thinks and believes. There is a set of common truths we all can
access about how we create our experiences. We just need to hold the
intention to explore Creation relative to revealing that truth. Each
individual’s intuition will lead them to the same point if they
focus on how and why they create the experiences they have.
Here again, we do not have to do all the work ourselves. We can use
the wisdom and
lessons learned by others. We can use an approach analogous to
the way we learn physics and chemistry. When we learn these
subjects, we do not have to redo all the experiences that give rise
to effective physics and chemistry principles. We use the principles
of physics and chemistry that are useful for our situation and the
do our own experiments to both verify their effectiveness for our
application and whether or not we need to expand our understanding
and do new experiments. So too the approach we take to creativity.
We can look to those who stepped into the unknown before us to learn
what can be expected. Yet, because we do step into the unknown, we
must be prepared to find our own way. The most powerful way to found
our way in the unknown is through the
most creative state of play coupled with our
intuitive guidance. It is to enter this state of play with
clear intention and
single point focus and allowing our intuitive guidance to lead
our efforts. In essence, we need to learn to
navigate from the heart.
What we need is a way to get ourselves interested in, and excited
about, holding focus on how we are creating our experiences. In
looking at the inner work people must do, if one adopts a creativity
perspective about how we create our experience and uses it, we can
create that
faster, easier and gentler way than having to go through years
of inner work. The question is, “How does one make the inner journey
appealing to our mind?” The answer lies available to us through our
internal guidance. We only need to ask ourselves the following
(or its equivalent) accompanied by some type of symbolic ritual or
ceremony performed in your own way to concretize the request within
your memory of a physical experience making the request. We only
need to ask, “How can I regain the ability to freely enter the most
powerful creative state of being and how do I make that journey
something that my mind will want to do and I can have fun doing it
in the fastest, easiest and gentlest way?”
Our intuitive guidance will guide us in the best way it knows how.
All we then need to do is step out of the judgment of our mind as
to what we think is the fastest, easiest and gentlest way. The key
is to use mind and hold the intention with an unwavering
single point focus. Then, allow what we feel to guide us. It is
to allow the feeling of an inner expansion and
fullness of being to guide us to that most creative state. It is
to use mind and the intuitive guidance we get to attend to the
detains of
honoring the intuitive guidance to make it happen. It is to use
what we feel to
navigate the unknown and allow the mind to attend to the details
to make it happen.
