I attended
an art show called “Magnitude” and a lecture by Jennet Inglis yesterday. She said quite a few things in her lecture on
“Art, Science and Spirit in the 21st Century: Curiosity,
Collaboration, and Compass” that touched me in ways I can’t quite articulate. It made me think, got me excited, and I feel
more opened up.
I got a
glimpse into a world of light and color and sound and the mathematics of it
all. How everything fits together so
harmoniously even where or when it seems like it shouldn’t.
At one point
Jennet said something about our heartbeat being our first clock … establishing
us in time. I remembered a Sunday in
Vancouver, BC, where a drummer had joined us and brought lots of drums. During my talk I asked him to play the first
drum ever heard by all of us – our
heartbeat. As I remembered I realized it does establish us in time – we come
from the timeless into this dimension when we’re born, and go into the timeless
when we die.
A moment
later Jennet asked “Is there a holographic heart of humanity? Where is it?”
My mind jumped into thinking about
living in a holographic universe. That
everything is projected from our minds outward as if on a giant blue screen and
becomes the reality we live in. We believe in what we’ve projected, therefore we
experience it as solid and real. Jennet’s
question made me ask myself “Is this why we’re collectively experiencing so
much chaos? The beliefs we’ve held on to
for so long are crashing down and the Global Heart is shining through. Where is it? It’s inside us – we’re being
broken open to let out the Light!
During the Q
& A after the lecture someone asked her about color, and she pointed to the
back of the theater and told us the colors she saw. I looked and saw the walls and the rows of
seats, but as I listened to her description, suddenly I saw the blocks of color
and shading she was describing, and the picture became so much more alive!
That
reminded me of taking an art class in Hawai’i and learning about different
brushes and the techniques used with them … and then for weeks I’d be driving
along looking at things thinking “Oh, I could use a fan brush there!”
Jennet’s PowerPoint
presentation ended with a quote by Democritus of Abdera – 430 BC: “Nothing
exists except atoms and space, everything else is opinion.” I laughed, yet how true this is. My world is a projection of my opinions and
how wonderful it was to be open anothers opinion of art, science and Spirit. What
if we were to approach all of life this way .. listening, learning, no preconceived
opinions? How rich, alive and peaceful
our world would be.
AFFIRMATIVE
PRAYER
We live in
an infinite field of creative potentiality.
We live and move and have our being in this Field, and It lives and
moves and has Its being in us. It is absolutely
all there is.
I recognize
that the mechanics of this Field are Love and Law. Love points the way and Law makes the way
possible. Knowing this I now declare I
am more open to the possibilities than I have ever been before. I am judgment free. My opinions are those of a much higher, more
involved mind, the One Mind, the Mind of God.
My life is so much more vibrant, so much more alive that it was just a
few minutes ago. I live with full
abandonment of my old, limiting beliefs, and this is good, very good.
Gratefully I celebrate knowing there is so
much more to learn, more to live. I am
excited about the adventure. I release
these words into the Law of Mind, knowing they are so, and so it is.
