The inner dance
The dance of heart and mind
Th dance of the inner masculine and inner feminine
From the Our Creative Spirit Home Page:
When viewed on the surface, the inner dance is between mind and
heart and what is
symbolized by the heart. It is the dance between what your mind
has come to think and believe, and what you feel and sense in the
world around you. In actuality, when you explore the depth of this
dance, it is the inner dance of the creative
masculine aspect
and
creative
feminine aspect that lie within your being (More ...on the
inner dance).
There are actually two inner dances. One is the dance between the
mind and what is
symbolized in the heart. It is the dance we all do whether we
realize it or not. It is the dance between what we know and what we
feel. Yet, the dance between heart and mind is only a shallow form
of a deeper inner dance.
The deeper inner dance
The deeper inner dance of what
lies within the heart and what the
heart symbolizes. This second, deeper dance is the
dance of energy consciousness. It is often called the play of
consciousness. It is the
dance of the duality of the creator and its creation, the
observer and the observed. We experience it as the conscious
awareness of our
creative spirit to thrust out into the world as the
inner masculine,
and the flow of energy unfolding to manifest
the intention behind, or for, our life, the
inner feminine.
It is the dance of the inner masculine and the inner feminine.
Each of us will ultimately need to master this inner dance if we are
to become a conscious creator. The inner dance is between the
inner masculine
aspect of our being and the
inner feminine.
The
masculine aspect
of our being is represented by our mind. The
feminine aspect of our being or the heart of our being, is
represented in the flow of energy that nourishes our creative
efforts and
symbolized as our heart. The inner dance about the masculine
learning to be true to itself such that when it acts, it acts on
what it believes and on what it has freely choose to believe and not
what another has programmed it to believe through one of the many
enculturation processes. So too the feminine. It is about our
creative life energy flowing freely into the creation we desire to
nurture and sustain and not on what has been forced on us or
we have been manipulated to nurture and sustain.
There are several aspect of this dance that need to be understood
and mastered. One aspect involves the
mind and
clear intention. It is about becoming aware that every thought
arises from a flow of energy. As such, there is a corresponding flow
of energy within the thought that can be sensed or felt. Without a
focused mind one continually diverts the flow of energy robbing the
feminine. To prevent the continual diversion of our energy it
means becoming aware of the intentions we hold both consciously and
subconsciously for they are a focus of our attention and awareness
and influencing what we are pulled to experience in life.
A second aspect is about the flow of energy within our being or the
heart and what we feel or don’t feel. In particular we need to
become discerning in our feeling and learn how to use an
internal
compass. There are several different things we can feel within
our being and we need to learn to discern which is which. One thing
is the
fulness of being that occurs when we align with the source of
our life and our creative powers. Another is the
flow of energy created by the intention we hold and a third is
the energy of the environment in which we find ourselves and all its
parts which can be further discerned in an infinite number of ways
into the individual parts of Creation.
This inner dance start with the realization that there are two view
or ways to perceive and/or experience Creation which has been
discussed. One way is to perceive Creation thought what one feels
and the flow of energy which has been
traditionally be associated with the heart and/or the
feminine aspect of being. The other way is to perceive
Creation is through what one thinks and believes which of course is
associated with the
mind and the
masculine aspect
of being. This is called the view of the
mind.
We will not be able to see and embrace this deeper inner dance and
consciously access the
inner masculine and inner feminine creative powers until one
learns the dance between mind and heart. To learn the dance between
mind and heart one will need to first come to understand there are
two views to creation. We each will have to spend some time
exploring and learning about each view. We need to come to know what
view is which and what each view can do that the other can’t. To
learn the inner dance of heart and mind one starts with exploring “The
Two Views of Creation.”
