Hello! This is Cynthia Sue Larson of RealityShifters dot com
I'm here with you today to talk about communicating with our past and future
selves.
This is a topic which I presented
as a keynote talk
at the Language of Spirit Conference
hosted by the SEED Graduate Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico this year.
This was the 12th annual such gathering, and here's a flier showing their logo.
At this conference,
which was hosted by SEED,
whose president is
Sean Seccatero,
who organized this year's conference,
I was also fortunate enough to
be part of the dialogues
which were moderated by Leroy Little Bear,
who was one of the first people involved with the original dialogue
back when David Bohm started it
with some linguists,
and indigenous elders and scholars.
So to share with you the concepts behind this conference, or at least what David Bohm had in mind with the idea of dialogue
sort of a Bohmian concept of dialogue, it's possible to learn a great deal without being burdened by some of the blinders that we frequently find ourselves in
thanks to our culture, our language, how we were raised,
the way we've learned to think.
To be able to open that up and
get a deeper view...
a deeper conversation... a deeper dialogue going within ourselves
and with everything and everyone around us.
Here's a quote from David Bohm:
"Suppose
we were able
to share meanings
freely
without a compulsive urge to impose our view
or conform to those of others.
And without distortion and self-deception.
Would this not constitute a real revolution in culture?"
That's a very
profound concept--
very deep. And that is
at the heart of what's going on at these annual
Language of Spirit
dialogues that happen each year.
My talk this year was about communicating with our past and future
selves.
One of the integral components of this kind of communication--although it seems
like it's focused
elsewhere in time--
really gets to a sense of no time at all-- a sense of
no "when."
Getting rid of those boundaries, once again. Those kind of labels--that sense of
"Where am I right now?"
Losing that sense of
timelessness, that sense of infinite, eternal connection that each of us intrinsically has
with everything and everyone around us. That's the true, intrinsic value that you have as a person
that no one
can ever take from you.
That you're beautiful
and perfect, exactly as you are.
And it's an awareness of just getting back into that sense of
balance and harmony and ease
where there is no more resisting and pushing away from something that you
feel opposed to.
Where there's no more worrying and concern
about things that could go wrong, wrong
and no more regret, and angst and
stress over things that have happened,
and the "should have," "could have," "would have" syndrome that so many people find
themselves in.
It's just being
in this beautiful place,
where without judgment, without any kind of sense of how things are supposed to
be,
or what we have to change, or what needs to be done, there's a
wonderful magical kind of an openness there
which allows true knowledge, true wisdom
through communication to occur.
I find it a very powerful experience, indeed.
I do recommended that if you
are already meditating, if you're already engaged in some kind of
spiritual practice,
make sure that you get lots of time to go to that place of stillness
so that you can bring the benefits of
just getting to that relaxation
where you can let go
without worrying, because
you actually do change the world when you get into that relaxed state of mind.
A book that I review this month which I love
is called, "Choosing Easy World." the author is Julia Rogers Hamrick.
The subtitle is, "A Guide to Opting Out of Struggle and Strife
and Living in the Amazing Realm Where Everything is Easy."
I love this book!
Because that's exactly in alignment with what I am talking about.
You can get into the spirit of the book and see if it's for you or not just by
repeating after me,
"I choose to live in
Easy World
where everything is easy."
Just thinking about that
and saying it...
You can say it a lot of times if you want to, "I choose to live in Easy World where everything is easy"
If you
are resonating with that, then you can probably
get a lot of value from the book itself, because what it does is it gets into that sense of
remembering
a time
and a place
when you could just relax and everything was alright.
Not so much effort,
straining, pushing, resisting,
fighting...
all of those label and judgements. Even judging ourselves
interferes, unfortunately.
You can just let that all go.
So that's a great way to get into the spirit of things there.
Also, I'd like to tell you that if you go to my website, and
check out the December 2010 newsletter,
all of the links to this book,
the conference I just talked about,
and a fabulous award-winning website, "Future Me" where you can send a message to your future
self and actually receive it in the future...
all of those links are there. You can also see the powerpoint slide
presentation
that I've got posted at the SEED Language of Spirit website,
and the link is right there in my september
September 2010
reality shifters dot com newsletter page.
So you can see the powerpoint slides, all
about communicating with your past and future self, which delves a little bit into one of
my favorite subjects
which has to do with bicausality
and retrocausality
and what I believe to be at the core of most of the reality shifts we see occurring
around us...
Sort of a model for this universe.
A very
holographic bicausal kind of a multiverse that we have going on.
So those ideas are presented along with current
cutting-edge research
and some of my own personal experiences with reality shifts that
seem to indicate
what we would expect to see happening if we were getting communications from
our future selves.
That's a fun concept to think about right now, to send some love back to your past selves
all of those various paths that you could have gone
and just be
at peace in that sense of
oneness and that place of no-when,
where everything is easy.
And you can think about, "How good can it get?" So until next time,
