The Game 0F Life

What Does Your #VividLife Look Like … flying in the face of expectations and producing the outcomes hoped for. When our lives are challenged, it’s easy for our faith to get tested. Still, where there’s life, there’s always hope, and sometimes help arrives in the most unusual and inexplicable ways, as long as we believe in the possibility. In many regards, when devoutly religious followers pray to a Supreme Being, they’re stating an intent for what they would like to see materialized. In essence, though, how is this any different from conscious creators forming beliefs and putting forth notions of what they would like to see made manifest.

When he observes that what happens or doesn’t happen in our lives often depends on      what we are or aren’t doing, and, while he’s addressing this point in a religious context,        it’s fundamentally based on the same underlying metaphysical principle that conscious creators use in their manifestation efforts.

Given the foregoing, it seems we may  be dealing with two sides of the same coin here. Indeed, whether one intends to engage in a religious practice or a metaphysical pursuit, the sought-after results in both cases are virtually identical. And, even though some may be intent on going out of their way to draw a distinction between these practices, it may ultimately be little more than a question of semantics.

To appreciate this, look at the elements that drive each process. In both cases, practitioners base their intentions on beliefs that certain outcomes will materialize,        and the strength of their faith in those notions is what drives the likelihood of their manifestation. Whether we’re talking prayer or intention, the underlying mechanics        are virtually indistinguishable.

Understanding this concept is crucial for a number of reasons. Perhaps the most important of these is that, the sooner we realize we’re all essentially relying on the        same principle for how we conceive of and create our existence,  the sooner we’ll        realize that we’re all in this together  and  that  the artificial distinctions  we draw            about what we call it or how we go about it …. are fundamentally irrelevant.  The    implications in many endeavors, such as religious wars, should be obvious.

An awareness of these ideas is also important for understanding how our reality         comes into existence. For example, when we realize that we partner with the divine         in   the creation of our world,  we gain a new appreciation for what’s truly possible.  Given    that our celestial collaborator  is  capable  of  materializing anything,             we shouldn’t mistrust its capabilities.

Therefore,  we also shouldn’t allow undue  influences like doubt or fear to creep into       the beliefs and intentions we put forth, for they’ll ultimately undercut what we hope to achieve.  In fact, by doing so, we also send a mixed message that our manifestation partner is incapable of interpreting accurately, leading to materializations that are distorted or stillborn. Why would we want such results?

This phenomenon is apparent: Skeptics might look at the foregoing example and    contend that it was coincidence, that things just happened at random. However, those  who practice conscious creation (or a comparable term one considers appropriate) realize that this is the process of synchronicity at work, the materialization of “meaningful” coincidences that are so perfectly tailored to what’s needed at the time that they easily  defy the qualities of happenstance occurrences.

All of these seemingly arbitrary and insignificant occurrences pop up out of virtually nowhere but have tremendous impact. Though they may seem trivial at the time of their appearance, they play integral roles in how circumstances unfold, a sure sign that they bear the mark of the divine at work.

Of course, recognizing these influences is critical to fully appreciating their significance. This is where the role of intuition comes into play. This nebulous perceptive ability that  we all possess is often dismissed as “irrational,” because it frequently defies logic. But its influence is something we ignore at our peril, for it often steers us in the right direction,  no matter how seemingly absurd, unreasonable or illogical it may appear.

Thanks to the impact of intent, synchronicity and intuition, the seemingly impossible suddenly becomes entirely plausible. Results that seemingly come from out of the blue emerge and take root, flying in the face of expectations and producing the outcomes hoped for. And, if that’s not a miracle, I don’t know what is.

When such events occur routinely, we have an opportunity to adopt a new outlook for our lives. Indeed, miracles become a way of life, characterizing our reality as something that happens almost matter-of-factly. Miracles no longer seem like unbelievable, inaccessible phenomena that only make their presence felt in the pages of ancient religious texts. And, when we see life from that perspective, it becomes enriched, giving us a greater awareness of, and appreciation for, our existence.

With a focus that’s more spiritual and metaphysical than religious, Faith often requires much of us. It means setting aside our need for apparent certainty and putting our trust in something far more tenuous, a decidedly uncomfortable prospect for those who depend on verifiable assurances in all of their daily dealings. But, when we learn how to set aside such matters and give ourselves over to the joys that come from seeing our faith fulfilled, we can attain a sense of satisfaction that defies logic – and our expectations.
