Believe It and You Are There

Very real are the places within the mind that seem like fantasy or imagination. Very real are the travels and experiences you encounter. Think not for one minute that you are “making it up” or that it is silly to believe such amazing and beautiful beings, places and emotions do truly exist. What is silly, is believing they do not. You can, within the mind, heart and soul, journey to any place or feeling you desire. You need not spend hours in deep and silent meditation. You need not learn to breathe a certain way or learn to clear your mind so that it is empty of all thought. If you have tried this, you already know it is close to impossible to silence the mind for too long a time.

So, why not instead, intend to go somewhere or experience something that would fill your heart with Joy? Even go as far as to decide you want to visit loved ones who have passed. They will either come to you or you will go to them. You can begin any one of these journeys by using what you call your “imagination” to start. Or “pretend” as you might say, that you are seeing, being and feeling these things. The next thing you know, you ARE seeing, being and experiencing them. The mind knows no difference between physical reality and that which you decide to experience within. As it has been said, “If you can go there in the mind, the body will follow.” And by this we mean you will actually feel sensations in and on the body while experiencing them in the mind. You will suddenly notice you are very connected to what is unfolding before the darkness of your closed eyes.

You have forgotten how free you really are to step outside of this thing you call the body. You have forgotten that in deciding to do so, it happens. You will know you have “done it” by the joy and love you feel during and upon return. What is lovely about this Truth, is whatever you encounter, wherever you go, whoever you meet with, will always be the perfect manifestation for that moment. You may go in to this state with one idea and be amazed at what unfolds in front of you. Your soul knows exactly where you need to go, or what you need to feel. Always on track, and like a Birthday surprise, you will find yourself in the midst of a glorious experience and come back with a greater understanding of yourself and a wonderful sense of Peace.

So, as you begin, go ahead and use your “imagination” to set it up. Then watch as it all begins to unfold like a movie that you are not only watching, but are feeling. You will be surprised and joyously amazed at how powerful you are and how easily you can access other dimensions just by willing to do so. Stay there as long as you like. Let it all unfold. Be not surprised if tears of joy and love pour down your cheeks. By all means do not try to stop them. Let them flow. Let it all flow as it is yet another gift that is there for you at all times. Be not surprised at the feelings of ecstasy while in this state. When you feel ecstasy, it is your soul, heart and Being remembering All. For those moments, you are so connected to All that Is and All that You Are. What a treat! Traveling, visiting, experiencing. All from the comfort of your most favorite and relaxing spot. No need to pack a bag, or a lunch, or a wallet. All you need is You. That is all you have ever needed, and it is time to Remember this. Enjoy the freedom that is yours! Enjoy experiencing all that you desire.

Like the child who believes with such excitement, you too will learn to believe in that way again. It is NOT wishful thinking, but instead Mindful creating!
