Thinking & Thought
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 6, 2010
Thinking & Thought are not the same thing.
Thinking is the act of recalling information from my memory and processing information that I am receiving from my senses.
Thinking is:
- Processing memories
- Consulting beliefs
- Analysing data
- Deducing outcomes
- Predicting future events
- Making choices based on knowledge
- Discerning what is right or wrong by judgement
Thinking is the process of communication with or as my ‘lower’ sub-conscious Self.
Thought is a communication from my or as my ‘higher’ super-conscious Soul.
It is my Soul’s directive as to whom ”Thou ought’ to Be.
A Thought is:
- An Intuition
- An Inspiration
- A Revelation
- A Knowing
- A Message
- A Prophetic Word
It is the act of not thinking, called meditation, that allows clarity of thought.
Thinking and thought appear to be the same thing because they are both processed by my brain.
Both thinking and thought derive from different aspects of my Mind.
Thoughts & Emotions
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 5, 2010
Emotions are the energy on which Thoughts are transmitted and received.
I do not think emotionally. I perceive emotions as feelings based on a rational perspective of my reality.
I process thoughts and emotions with my brain.
I am either aware of the emotion that I am feeling or conscious of the thought that I am thinking.
I process emotion with my right brain and I think rationally with my left brain. It takes practice to process both at the same time.
My emotions indicate my alignment with my thoughts.
When I am consciously in alignment with a thought, I experience the high charge of emotional energy on which the thought is being transmitted.
When this emotional energy is perceived to be positive, I am in alignment and my inspiration is empowered.
The degree of misalignment that I have with a thought determines the degree of negative emotion that appears to accompany the thought.
Pure Feeling accompanies Pure Thought. It has no emotional attachment and no mis-alignment with its Source.
My Soul always sends to my Self a pure frequency of mental Thought on a pure wavelength of emotional Feeling.
How I receive this communication with my Soul is determined by the polarity of my beliefs and the gender of my emotional attachments.
Beliefs & Deductions
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 4, 2010
Neither Beliefs nor Deductions are Thoughts.
Accessing beliefs from my sub-conscious mind and consciously making deductions are both forms of rational thinking, but they are not thoughts.
My sub-conscious beliefs are what I have been told to be true or what I have personally experienced to be so.
My beliefs are my truths that create my reality, which is what I believe to be real and true.
My deductions are what adds up for me in the future based on my knowledge of what occurred in the past.
I deduce what is best for me in the future based on what has happened to me in the past.
When my deductions of what will occur in the future actually occur, they confirm my beliefs about the past.
When my deductions prove to be false and they do not materialise, they force me to re-evaluate my beliefs.
The fact that reality is continuous and sequential allows me to accurately deduce the best possible outcome for my Self.
The future is consequential and a direct manifestation of my beliefs and my deductions. What I think to be real continually manifests as my reality.
Thoughts create a new reality. Thinking by deduction in line with my beliefs maintains my existing reality. It reproduces my past reality into my future.
Prediction & Prophecy
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 3, 2010
Prediction requires a knowledge of the past.
Prophecy requires a knowing of the future.
I make a prediction of my future based on my memories of my past experiences.
My beliefs create my reality. I can therefore predict that my future will re-present my past, unless I change the beliefs that I hold in my present.
In a reality where beliefs evolve over time, and therefore a reality which evolves over time, it is impossible to predict how beliefs and reality will evolve over time. Predicting the long term future is not possible because everything inevitably changes and evolves with time.
When I predict what will happen based on what has happened before, I focus on what happened before and create my prediction with the focus of my attention.
My Self lives in the present with the memories of my past. It has the authority of prediction (I can choose my future), without the ability of prophecy.
Prophecy is the ability of the Soul.
A Prophet has an intuitive sense of knowing, feeling or seeing.
A Prophet has the ability to See with the ‘Eyes of their Soul’.
Prophecy requires the ‘Ears to Hear’ the direction of my Soul.
My Soul knows my chosen Path in Life.
My Soul prophecises the opportunities for my Self in each present moment of time.
A Prophet interprets the prophecies of their own Soul for their Self, or acts as a channel or medium for another’s Soul to contact its Self.
A Prophet may be a Gnostic (one who knows), a Seer (one who sees), or a Sensitive (one who feels).
A Prophet who makes predictions is a Charlatan.
Creation & Recreation
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 2, 2010
Creation is the purpose of my Soul.
Recreation is the purpose of my Self.
My Soul’s purpose is to create an Ideal Life.
My Self’s purpose is to re-create my life each day.
My Soul creates the strategy for my Game of Life. (With or without my conscious-awareness).
My Self plays the Game of Life for real. (Manifests it into physical reality).
Creation is the manifestation of new opportunities that facilitate the expansion of my Soul.
Recreation is the act of enjoying playing out old experiences in different ways for my own personal pleasure.
The best creations of my Soul become the best recreation for my Self.
Recreation (play) is the ‘Third Way’ between work & rest.
Recreation has the authority to play effortlessly and the power not to need to rest.
Creative Play is an oxymoron.
Play is the re-creation by my Self of the Joy that is already created by my Soul.
Without the creation of my Self, my Soul has no opportunity to expand & grow.
Without the re-creation of my Self each day, my Soul has no opportunity to expand & grow.
When I re-create my Self each day in the ‘Image of my Soul’, life becomes creative.
Thinking & Knowing
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on March 1, 2010
When I am Thinking, my brain is processing memories of past information and data.
When I am Knowing, I am connecting to the creativity of my mind.
I become conscious of the memories that I have stored in my sub-conscious when I think.
I do not think thoughts. I think memories and choices.
I know thoughts. When I connect to a new thought, I just know.
The act of knowing a thought brings it into my reality and allows that thought to manifest and to become created in reality. With enough power, I make it real.
My sub-conscious memories allow me to think. Thinking is the process of reviewing past experiences. Without a memory, I would act without thinking.
My super-conscious thoughts are my source of knowing what is right for my Self.
Knowing is my intuitive ability to create my ideal life.
I can choose whether to think about a future that is a projection of my past experiences, or I can know what is perfect in the present moment for my Self.
Searching my sub-conscious memory for new experiences is pointless. I will only find different ways of experiencing old experiences.
Revealing a new perspective on life is realising a new experience of life, which with sufficient inspiration will manifest as my reality.
Thinking focuses my attention on reproducing the past.
Knowing focuses my attention on creating my present in the future.
Consciousness & Reality
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on February 27, 2010
Consciousness perceives Reality.
Through my 5 physical senses, my conscious Self perceives conscious physical reality.
Through my 3 spiritual senses, my conscious Self is aware of my spiritual reality.
Through my physical and spiritual senses of material and non-material reality, I expand my conscious-awareness.
Consciousness is who I am.
Reality is who I perceive my Self to be.
I am not my reality. I am Consciousness creating, exploring, discovering and experiencing reality.
Reality is a creation of Consciousness.
Without Consciousness being me, there is no reality.
Without Reality, Consciousness just Is.
Reality allows Consiousness to expand.
As Consciousness expands, Reality evolves.
The evolution of Man is a changing reality that is an illusion of an expanding Consciousness, as seen from a physical perspective in Time & Space.
Time and Space is a creation of Consciousness in order to experience a changing, growing and expansive Reality.
The Illuminati
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on February 26, 2010
The Illuminati are the ‘Awakened Ones’.
The Awakened Ones are illumined.
Illumined means connected to the wisdom of one’s ‘Light’.
When consciously connected to my Light, I am consciously-aware of who I really am and why I am here.
As one who is awakened, I know the spiritual path and the vision that I have chosen for my Life.
Being illumined is knowing my spiritual nature and my spiritual purpose for my Life.
The Illuminati are the one’s who have chosen to awaken to their true path in Life.
The Illuminati are not the ‘chosen ones’ but the ones who have chosen.
They are the ones who have awakened to the knowing that they have chosen a spiritual path and that they have chosen to awaken.
The Illuminati are illumined not enlightened.
Enlightened means converted to the path of an awakened one who is a spiritual guru or religious leader.
I am enlightened by another. Being illumined is my Soul connection.
The Illuminati are awakened to their own path rather than someone else’s path. They find clarity and direction, support and guidance from their own Inner Teacher.
Gratitude & Appreciation
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on February 21, 2010
Gratitude & Appreciation are both essential tools for creating my chosen reality.
When the focus of my thoughts is carried on the emotion of either gratitude or appreciation, it carries those thoughts into my future.
Failing to be in gratitude for what I have, diminishes my focus and depreciates what I have.
It is often said that: “We do not appreciate what we have until we lose it”.
The way I eliminate something from my reality is to not give it another thought.
Being in appreciation for something acknowledges the expansive growth that has been attained by or with that something.
When I appreciate what I have in my present, it appreciates, expands and grows in my future.
What I am in gratitude for, repeats itself in my future. I maintain what I have with gratitude.
What I am in appreciation of, grows, expands and appreciates in my future.
I appreciate what I have when I appreciate what I have.
Giving Thanks & Being in Gratitude
Posted by theinnercoach in Spiritual Development on February 20, 2010
When I am Giving Thanks, I am focusing on what I have and others do not have.
I am thankful for what I have and for what others have given to me.
I give thanks for other people’s kindness and generosity.
I am unable to give thanks to people whom I envy because they have what I do not have, which I would like to have and be thankful for.
Being In Gratitude is an emotional state of Being, not an action that I do.
Being in gratitude is a feeling of being content with what I have in Life.
I am in gratitude when I am approving of all the positive aspects of my Life.
I am in gratitude when I recognise the abundance that already exists in my Life.
I am in gratitude for what I am accepting and I am allowing to flow into my Life as a blessing.
I am thankful for what I receive as a gift from other people.
I am in Gratitude for the Provision that I receive from my Soul.
