Most
of us sense there is a change going on – something feels different about our
lives and the world. It can look and feel like life is falling apart which is
creating fear and panic in many people. Our old sense of security and stability
is disintegrating; our familiar systems are collapsing all around us. Even the
weather seems to be getting into the act – unpredictable, destructive,
uncontrollable, and scary.
So
have we been our own worst enemy? Have we created an unsustainable,
unsupportive, and destructive environment for ourselves? Or have we taken a
direction that would force our evolution?
There
are always multiple perspectives – many ways we could see what is happening. We
could take the optimistic and hopeful perspective that our souls know what
they’re doing; or take the fearful, pessimistic view that we are greedy,
unconsciousness and selfish humans doomed to extinction.
I
choose the positive perspective. When the caterpillar is transitioning into a
butterfly – it starts to fall apart, parts begin to die off. This is something
that happens to allow the butterfly to emerge. It’s doubtful that the
caterpillar has fear or anxiety around this metamorphosis. It intuitively or
instinctively knows this is part of its journey to some other life experience.
But we seem to have lost touch with our intuition and inner knowing and so when
we can’t see beyond the present circumstances, our minds go into chaos and fear.
When
I am still and quiet my mind, my intuition tells me something grand is
occurring. I don’t believe this is merely a physical wake up call – a sign that
we need to treat the planet better – or to stop wars, starvation, and injustice.
I believe that we are experiencing something bigger and much more profound.
Einstein
said that a problem cannot be solved by the same mind or thinking that created
the problem in the first place.
Trying
to change situations on the outside, with our old way of doing things, is not
working – and it’s arduous. There is too much resistance from people – too many
people arguing and defending their religious belief systems and political
views. There is too much “them against us” thinking on the planet.
I
believe what we need to do – what we’re ultimately forcing ourselves to do – is
to shift our thinking, to have a different understanding of life, ourselves,
and concept of “reality.” We need
to change on the inside and evolove our consciousness.
One
of the beliefs that causes trouble here is our belief that we are limited,
physical beings who live in a finite world, one of scarcity and lack, that
there is only so much to go around so we must fight to get what we can and
struggle to survive.
Quantum
physics is telling us that “reality” – everything we think we see, feel, and
hear - is actually just energy; that matter is not just an infinitesimal part
of what exists, but that matter is actually not solid at all, it’s made of
energy. And in this field of infinite energy, subatomic particles constantly
pop in and out of existence; waves of energy and information make up everything
we see, feel and experience.
E =
MC2 is a profound statement – mass is energy. But we’re not living with an
awareness of that amazing discovery. We’re living an old paradigm or belief
system that says we - and the entire universe - are biological or physical
machines that exist for a brief time then eventually suffer entropy,
disintegration, and death.
If
everything is energy, how is this possible? If our skin is just made of energy,
how could it age? If our bodies are energy, how could they become ill or
diseased?
And
quantum physicists are finding evidence to show that our consciousness affects
this energy field, that there are just waves of information and all
possibilities until an observer focuses attention on the field. Then particles
blink into existence.
So
“reality” is just waves of energy – a field of all possibilities – then our
consciousness makes something pop into existence by focusing on it. This
information should be life changing for all of us. We’ll be discussing more
about this – and other paradigm shattering information – as time goes on.
