New Earth Creation

The question of the hour is this: What are we really creating while learning to live in the environment of conscious conservation?

Over the past several years, a new era has arrived. It has brought with it new understandings, new technology, new faiths, new politics...and new fears.

I was brushing my teeth the other night, like I do every night (hopefully), and as I was brushing, I realized that I liked the sound of the running water. It’s a sound that I’m always fond of; the tranquil side of life...always there, but not always paid attention to. But as quick as my fondness arrived, I had a flash of confusion. I’m being told that there’s not enough water on the Earth for all of us humans and I’m to conserve what we have left.

I stopped brushing for a moment and turned off the water...a little sad perhaps, that I wasn’t able to find myself enjoying that moment. I asked how this fits in to my responsibility to self, and the understanding that I am the Creator of my environment.

I brush my teeth, take showers, do dishes, and all the while remain conscious of the amount of water that I use, so that I too can do my little part. I may not always find joy in taking a shorter shower, especially when my body really wants a longer one, but I usually turn the water off sooner because in my mind, it’s the right thing to do.

So here, I come to an odd sort of crossroads. There’s an emphasis that is placed on water shortage, and to frivolously waste water during such a time would be quite irresponsible to myself, my children, and the rest of humanity.

But there’s, as usual, another side to the same coin that’s certainly not to be overlooked. First of all, why am I conserving something that there’s not enough of? A stupid question? Nope.

I’m conserving it because of the fear of losing it. I’m conserving it to make a conscious effort to try and fix a problem.

Whoa! Let’s stop and take a look at that...

Energetically these thoughts automatically create a much bigger problem within themselves. When something is "feared" there are a couple of things going on. Namely, fear being held energy looking to be balanced and released. It’s always there for a very important reason, not to be ignored or band aided. Fear is truly illusional and an integral part of a natural change taking place that most people just don’t want to look at.

Next, what happens when you make a conscious effort to "try" to "fix" a problem? You’re saying to yourself that something is "wrong" and therefore adding to it by the very energy you put into it! In other words, the problem is what is validated and created upon the very thought of it. Imagine that!

What is created as an offshoot is an endless stream of worry while carrying around the energy of "fix". Therefore, what you’ll find is also an endless stream of humans trying to fix a problem; all the while forgetting that the ability to Create what is desired is pushed into the corner.

Is there a happy medium in the crux?

Yes.

Love yourself; love the Earth - and not just the physical manifestation of the Earth...that too is also illusional. Love the essence, the being that is the Earth. Love your fears as they show up, because they are actually begging to be seen. And allow the healing to take place as a natural outflow of Who You Are.

It is paramount, at this time, that each one of us find our own personal connection to this lovely being we know as planet Earth. The healing comes from inside each and every one of us first.

As the new idea of Earth begins to manifest itself, pay attention to the footsteps you make upon her. Pay attention to what you are feeling as you walk and converse with her. Listen to your own fears about your future with this being. The fears are there to show you how to become balanced and live in harmony, however your own idea of harmony may show up. The masses want you to fear. How will you create?

It’s all "In Here"

It seems quiet out there. It’s a new kind of quiet because there’s really a lot going on! Internally there’s quantum changes taking place which beg for us to re-evaluate our beliefs, goals, desires, and passions. Externally the changes taking place within us show themselves as a "blustery environment" on many levels.

For the first time, in a long time, I’ve been reading what others have to say about this point in our evolutionary history. Even those who don’t talk about "ascension" are talking about massive changes taking place within our bodies and our environment.

The mind hopes, but doesn’t want to necessarily believe that we could actually be at this place where everything changes and we become enlightened to ourselves. The mind wants to carry on with its usual patterns because what if it’s really not happening? What if it’s just a bunch of weirdoes taking advantage of current events to manipulate the situation and make it something that it’s not?

This is a question that each of us must ask ourselves and become fully aware of...Is this real? Because granted, we have lived in a world of controversy, clouded information, and dictatorship. Many people fear nuclear war or the end of the world. Many people hold out for spaceships and pleasant aliens. Still others look for The Christ to levitate down from the heavens and pick a couple of people to cruise back up with him. And when reality gets crazy, the first thing people usually want to do is look to blame those in power or "hopefully" find another bigger "power" to save them.

If you never ask yourself this question, however, what you’ll be left with is the "hope" that the world is actually evolving and changing (in a "good" way) and not have the internal knowledge of the bigger picture. And while hope is nice, it’s intangible and rather etheric.

So what is real? What can be counted on but not depended upon that isn’t outside of self?

The biggest questions often have the simplest answers, and thus it works itself out to a simple choice: Out there or in here...which do you choose? Beyond the seeming reality that we see, and beyond the matter and structure of the physical world with its wars, celebrations, laws, loves, fears, and joys, what is there?

There is here..in here. Your "in here". Yes, it true, the wars are in here, the aliens, the Christ, laws, love, fears, and joys. There all in here. But once the seeming "out there" stuff, which is really in here becomes balanced, your particular world changes drastically. (I apologize for the "circle talking".)

The reasons that this is brought up are two. The first reason is to move away from the old "hope" that things are going to get better, and to simply create whatever "better" means to you by moving inward towards your own soul and your own passion. The second reason is to really and truly allow the understanding it all begins - everything that you see, hear, touch, smell, taste, and sense...in here, in you. Just that easy and straightforward knowledge will have you see Who You Are, take responsibility for what’s going on inside, and set you and your environment free.

So what do you do when you hear, read, or see heavy firestorms, water shortages, earthquakes, chemical poisonings, etc...? It is out there, and most likely will continue for some time.

You may want to focus on fixing the problem, thus focusing on the problem itself. And then you tell yourself that you are "helping" by being one of those who is "out there" fixing the problem. But you will also notice that the "problem" doesn’t seem to go away...it only intensifies in other areas.

This is the Earth cleansing itself. This is you cleansing yourself and your environment that you see and hear about. It is yours. Is it out there? No. It only appears to be out there.

Switch your focus to what is real. And what is real is in here. Your attachments to your environment are in here. Your fears for the environment are in here. They are yours and they are asking to be set free so that your "outside" environment can be set free. Then, when you do go "out" and assist the planet and your environment, your assistance is coming from a clarity of a vision that you hold inside which isn’t attached to fear or confusion.

An Excerpt from Ornesha’s Ascension

"If you were to hold onto a past experience with emotion attached to it, you would focus on what it is that you don’t want. And if you are focusing on what you don’t want from a past experience, where is "now"? Where are you creating from? You are creating from a past that is now an illusion, and a future that doesn’t even exist.

We have allowed the past to create our future, and try as we might, never seem to break free of the confusion we have when we create something unexpected. We like to think that it’s destiny, our higher good, or God creating these things for us. We become victims to unseen forces that we think are outside of us. Then we control our environment, or so we think, by using our minds to create using a timeline.

These past experiences and future desires can be a double-edged sword. If they are used because of our attachment to them, they can, like a sword, cause us pain. If they are used without attachment to them, they can be our freedom."
