Читать книгу Manifest Your Destiny: The Nine Spiritual Principles for Getting Everything You Want - Уэйн Дайер, Wayne Dyer W. - Страница 11

Consider for a moment the world of form that you see around you, including your body. What is the cause of all that you observe? Contemplate who it is that observes and notices all of the “stuff.” Who is that invisible “I” inside all of the tubes, bones, arteries and skin that are your physical form? To know yourself authentically, you must understand that everything that you notice around you was and is caused by something in the world of the unseen. That something is the world of the spirit.

When you look at a giant oak tree, ask yourself what caused that tree to become what it is. It started from a tiny acorn, a seedling that grew into a mighty tree. Your logical, rational mind says that there must be something resembling “treeness” within that acorn. But when you open the acorn you find nothing resembling a tree. All you find is a mass of brown stuff, quiet dust. If you further examine the brown stuff that makes up the acorn, you will find smaller shreds of brown stuff, until ultimately you discover distinctly “acornish” molecules. Then you find atoms, then electrons, then subatomic particles, until you finally go as small as is possible with a microscope at full magnification. Here you will find that there are no particles, but waves of energy that mysteriously come and go.

Your conclusion will be that the acorn and the tree itself have a creator that is unseen, immeasurable and called by those of us who need to classify such things the spirit or soul. The source of all therefore is no-thing, since it is not in the dimension of the measurable.

This unseen world that is the source of the world of the seen is also the cause of you. Observe yourself scientifically and you will discover that you are not your creation. If you did not create yourself, what was it that created you?

We can go back to conception and explain creation as one drop of human protoplasm colliding with another, resulting in your appearance in the form of a tiny speck that grew into the body that is you today. But, if you delve further into those drops of human protoplasm and turn up the magnification on the microscope, and if you do the same with the speck that was your first experience of form, you discover the same truth that described the acorn. In the beginning is energy, energy that has no dimensions, energy that is not in the visible world. This is our original self. It is a potentiality, not an object. A “future pull,” if you will, that is a potential to become a something and no-thing more.

The general concept of soul or spirit is that you have one, but it is not that important to daily life. It may become really significant, though, after your body dies. I am taking a different position here, and it is the core of this first principle of manifesting. It will lead you to your highest self, and then on to the ability to live a miraculous life of co-creating with God your ideal state of being. Furthermore, this spirit is permanent and incapable of being lost or removed.

Your destiny is to become a co-creator with God and to treasure the sanctity of all that comes into this world of form that we call home, but which is only a transitory stopping place.

Your creative ability originates in the unseen mind. It begins in the unseen world of waves and energy. So, too, do the planets, the stars, the flowers, the animals, the rocks, you, your possessions, your creations—all of it, no exceptions. Examine everything and anything and you find that at the core there is no form, only an unseen quality that brings it from the world of the unseen to the world of the observable.

It is this world of the unseen that I would like you to consider as you read these words. Imagine that there are two worlds in which you co-exist at all times. Look around you now at the world of form. Then look within and realize that it began in the unseen dimension that we are not even close to comprehending.

Then, make the big leap to the awareness that you are both of these worlds simultaneously. You are not separate from the world of the unseen any more than you could be separate from the world of the seen. You are a combination of both at all moments of your life, even if you have come to believe that you reside exclusively in the world of the seen, and that the unseen is something other than you. It is you, all of it. Right now!

The problem that faces most of us in becoming manifesters and learning to manage the circumstances of our lives is that we have forfeited our ability to oscillate between the world of form and the unseen world. Imagine that there is a line down the middle of the room that you are in at this moment. Pretend that everything to the right of the line represents the world of the seen. To the left of the line is everything that is the cause of everything on the right. The unseen world is on the left, the seen world is on the right.

Now, question your belief that you (the whole you) cannot enter the world to the left of the imaginary line. If you were to cross that line every now and then, you would be entering the world of the creator. Have you been taught that the creator is something outside yourself? (I will deal with this more thoroughly in the second principle.) If so, your inner world (the world of the unseen) is full of notions that prohibit you from participating in the creative process.

There are dogmas that represent participating in the creative process as blasphemy, or foolishness, or thinking too highly of yourself. But go back to the opening sentence of this first principle and reread it until it resonates within you: Within you is a divine capacity to manifest and attract all that you need or desire.

It is more than within you. It is you, and you must overcome your conditioning and give yourself permission to enter this world. Cross the line that separates the physical you from the you that is just as real, but unseen. When you overcome the obstacles of your mind that prevent you from crossing the line, your unseen self will be your ticket to creation in your life.
