You can’t touch this
“Creativity flows from a Source so deep within you that no language or dogma can contain it. It’s a force that will express itself though you in such a way that serves the awakening of all creation.” — Way of Mastery
Happy Wednesday, my fine-feather friends in fun, frivolity and fabulousity. (Did I just invent that word?)
I want you to know that I am not being coy or trying to build suspense about the practice I’ve been opining about, the practice with which so many of you have agreed to experiment.
I will share the super easy steps on Friday. I just talked with the guy who introduced me to this practice, so I’ve now got the guidelines straight from the historian’s mouth. I say historian because it’s a practice that was first introduced nearly a century ago.
I personally love it because, after six months or so of using it, I have deepened my relationship with the living spirit the Course in Miracles promises. My practice, which had grown crusty and stale, has been enlivened in a whole new way. In fact, today’s ACIM lesson, about light and joy and peace abiding in me, seems like the truest statement in the world. That lesson also says that, despite how it sometimes looks to the naked eye, nothing can touch or change this eternal bond, thus the headline for today’s post.
So for now, while gussying up the easy instructions for the experiment, I thought I’d fall back on one of my old standards—sharing a couple miracle stories. Eventually, of course, we’ll figure out that what we call miraculous is nothing more than the universe saying, “Psst! Over here.”
1. The first is from a reader (actually she called herself a re-reader) who, while doing one of the experiments in E-Squared, made the intention to manifest something out of thin air. She didn’t specify what, decided to leave that up to the universe.
Later that day, a Bengals baseball cap showed up in her yard. At first, she assumed it had blown off a neighbor’s head or fallen out of a passing car. But in closer examination, she realized it was a brand-new cap with stickers, labels and the price tag still on it. Her son, a die-hard Bengals fan, remarked, “Well, if nobody comes for it after a day, maybe we should just, you know, hang on to it?” Well, guess who is now wearing a brand-new baseball cap.
2. The second was from a reader who had lost her grandmother’s emerald ring. She was reading E-Cubed that suggested asking the universe to prove it was working in concert with her intentions. So she said, “Alright universe, remember that emerald ring I lost two years ago, the one I inherited from my grandma? Well, I really miss that ring and I’d love you to bring it back to me.”
She went out of town for work for a week and when she returned to her apartment in New York City, the ring–the very ring that had gone missing—was sitting square center on her welcome mat.
So folks, like the Course in Miracles tells us, we can turn our minds back to full creation at any minute. The burdens we’ve placed in our minds, the burdens that block the awareness of our unassailable light, are made of dust, ready to be gently blown away.
