ABRAHAM
The Universe Continues To Expand Through You
by Jerry and Esther
Hicks
So, you were Non-Physical Source Energy
(and still are) and from that Non-Physical vantage point, you projected
a part of your Consciousness here into this physical body. And so, here
you are, exploring the wonderful detail and contrast of this Leading
Edge time-space reality.
Now, here in your physical body, you are
surrounded by wonderful specific details of contrasting life experience
that you are able to decipher through your physical senses. And as you
live your life – day by day and segment by segment – your personal
deciphering of life causes a further expansion of the Universe.
As you observe your world, you are seeing
it through your eyes, hearing it through your ears and smelling it,
tasting it, touching it through your deciphering senses. In other words,
you cannot help but see your world through your personal and important
perspective of self. And in that natural process of perceiving life from
your perspective of self, you cannot help but give birth to new
preferences and to desires for things that from your perspective would
be even better still. In other words, by living life from your selfish
point of view, you are discovering improvements.
Many of our physical friends do not like
the idea of being selfish, but that is because they misunderstand a
fundamental principle of life: You cannot be other than selfish, for you
cannot observe, perceive or be other than from your perspective of self.
All points of Consciousness, even one-celled organisms, perceive. And
they do so from the ever-changing selfish perspective that they
currently hold.
EVEN WITHOUT WORDS YOU ARE
CREATING
As you live your life, having personal
experiences and observing experiences that others are living, you often
see things that you clearly do not want. And each time that occurs, a
clarification of what you do want erupts within you. Occasionally the
experience is so dramatic that you could clearly state, “I don’t want
that! And I now understand that what I want instead is... ”
You always know more clearly what you do
want when you are faced with what you do not want. But whether you are
consciously aware of it or not, all day, every day, you are giving birth
to new desires that are being born from the details of the life you are
living out on the Leading Edge of thought.
Most humans are not aware of this process
of expansion. Even when they read these words explaining it, most do not
find it of any particular significance to their own life experience. But
from your Non-Physical perspective, before you came forth into this
body, you found it compelling. In fact, there was no thought that was
more exhilarating to you, because you understood then that the entire
expansion of the Universe occurs in just that way. You knew that your
Leading Edge experience on planet Earth would literally inspire
expansion within you and that the delicious contrast of this time-space
reality was the stuff that puts the Eternalness in Eternity. But, of
course, from that Non-Physical perspective, you were able to see the
entire picture of creation and expansion – and that is why we are
reminding you again of it now.
YOUR INNER BEING FLOWS WITH NEW
DESIRES
And so, whether you are consciously aware
of your new expanded desire or not, desire is born out of the contrast
you are living... for during that process of you knowing what you do not
want, the clear, expanded idea of what you prefer instead is born and
your Inner Being (or the Source within you) turns its undivided
attention to that new expanded idea!
Now this is the most important part of
this story of creation and of your physical, human, Leading Edge
creative part in it: In the moment that a new-and-improved version of
life is born out of the life you are living, you have the option of
aligning with the new idea or of resisting it. And the choice that you
make in that moment is really what this is all about – but, even more
important, it is what your life of joy (or of misery) is about, for that
is the point of your joyfully allowing you to be You (or not).
So, from your Non-Physical perspective (or
Source perspective) before your birth into this physical body, you
eagerly understood these things:
• You would be focused in a physical body.
• You would be living amongst a wide variety of contrast.
• The contrast that you would be living would stimulate new ideas of
improvement and expansion within you.
• The broader, Non-Physical part of you (your Inner Being) would embrace
the new ideas fully and would literally become their vibrational
equivalent.
