Here is a selection of what I consider to be some of the best HOW statements from the Beyond Imagination Notes. They describe how reality is created and what we can do to enable spirit to more fully express through us. The following came from the Notes from Nov 93 through Aug 94. ENJOY. Perhaps this brief taste will move you to explore more ... either in the Best of Notes pages, or in the full versions of the Notes from each month. Regardless, my motivation is simply to make the material more accessable and in doing so, perhaps enable you to discover and more fully express whom that you are.

The universe doesn't waste effort, it only does things as many times as necessary for the function to be accomplished. Each person has a unique role to play. All are necessary.

Most of the special roles were selected by old souls who had achieved the highest levels of abilities and of wisdom.

The toughest roles are given to such beings for they are the only ones that could handle the challenges.

BE HERE NOW, beyond mind, beyond imagination, beyond everything.

It is up to you to define what YOU will do. It is helpful if this comes from your SELF -- for, then it is in full accord with the PLAN.

It is best if you use your ego to observe, it is the "eye" or "I" of your psyche. Put your needs into your conscious mind, then trust that other agents within you are charged with making them so.

Focus your activities on what you can do and what your inner guidance directs.

Do each day that which seems right to you. Worry not about the future. It will take care of itself.

Your task is to BE HERE NOW. Allow your entire beingness to flow out of each moment and fill space and time with what is to be. You create in the moment. The point of power is the present.

Use your eyes, all of them, to sense what actions are working. Don't force the timing of things.

Consciousness operates from needs, not wants. WANTS are part of a belief system that says "I do not trust that God, the universe, or All That Is will provide for me".

In truth, we always get exactly what we need -- ALWAYS.

The lesson is to forego attachment to things, and to money. Focus on living, NOW, and doing that which needs to be done. Further, trust that consciousness will provide for its children.

Focus on doing that which spirit moves you to do. As you do so, you will be cared for.

WHO YOU ARE counts for a lot, but WHAT YOU DO makes all the difference.

Until the dream weavers, the visionaries, do their stuff, not much can happen to bring about change. As you enact your daydreams, reality is given a grand impetus to change.

We need to learn what works and what does not.

We need to learn how to do things elegantly, with beauty and optimal use of energy and resources.

We need to learn how best to meet individual needs, including what needs society should fill and what needs the individuals must meet on their own or through mutual cooperation with other individuals.

We are the cells of that entity, that consciousness. To some degree we are part of that consciousness already. It is what speaks to us through our intuition.

It already has the perfect form in mind. It is simply waiting for us to become aware of our roles in manifesting this new idea in physical form on Earth.

Many of us are realizing that this is our mission, our purpose in this existence.

The Plan will be realized on Earth, but only through the collective Visions of individuals attuned to source.

Collect these beings around you, let them be part of your circle. You will know them by their works and by the gaze in their eyes. Stay in touch with them with your communications.

It is not necessary that you remain in physical proximity, only conscious proximity.

As your awareness grows collectively, you will develop the abilities for maintaining a continuous conscious presence. As the work proceeds, such will be necessary.

The ideas I bring forth are the spiritual blueprints, but these are no good unless they are conveyed in a manner that the sponsors/ financiers/ investors can believe in, and that the architects can turn into physical blueprints that foremen can understand and can convey to the workers to manifest.

However, all are required to get the job done. Take out any level, and the project fails.

So, what is stopping you now? Why do you choose to be less than you know you can be. Free yourself of the limitations and chains that you have around you. All of these are self-imposed, and require your will to give them their power over you.

Be done with them, so that you can be free to engage your energies as you see fit. This level of control will not be exerted for you. It is up to you to drop your illusions and see the reality that is truly there.

Be done with the darkness and see the light. Awaken from your sleep and rise anew and see the dawning of a glorious new day, as it marks the arrival of a new age, the Age of Aquarius.

This is a game we are playing, hiding from ourselves the fact that we create the events in the game even as we experience them. That is, we create the very reality to which we react.

Put in my hands the divine instruments to help awaken others and align them with their purposes that they too can be employed in the service of consciousness.

Allow my word to express Thy Truths and Purpose unto all who have ears to hear and eyes to see. Thank you! So be it!

Seek and ye shall find.

Knock and the door shall be answered.

Ask and it shall be given unto you.

These be the keys. They have been before us for nearly 2000 years. The mansion is the Self.

What we seek is truth; the truth of whom that we are.

It's up to us to be curious enough and dedicated enough to place our full attention on our seeking; courageous enough to knock on the door; and humble enough to ask for what we need.

The greatest meaning comes from a third way of seeing.

Seek Love and ye shall find your own Heart.

Knock at the door to the Heart and the door shall be answered by the Christ within you.

Ask of that Christ anything you will and it shall be given unto you.

The Christ within you is also the Self -- they are one and the same. Therefore, Self-Realized equals Christ Conscious.

In bringing ideas and works through, each of us allows the collective whole to benefit.

This is why we don't need ten Gandhi's or five Krishnamurti's or eight Buddha's. One of each is enough to set the pattern and provide the mold.

It is only necessary for one vehicle to express a new great truth. Consciousness will ensure that the truth is captured in a manner to allow it's expression as required by the Plan.

At one level, yes life is a Play. But, once you become aware that your beliefs create your reality, the rules of the game change a bit and become more complex.

You are given as much freedom as you show that you are ready to handle responsibly.

As your awareness changes, examine your world to see what new powers of reality creation that you now possess. Don't rely on what has worked in the past and don't expect consciousness to always be feeding you your lines.

One by one, the awakened ones will have to share their Light with others so that these too can be awakened.

It is time to turn this country into a land of ashes, that the PHOENIX may arise out of the ashes in the form of new bodies able to hold a much greater frequency of spirit.

This indeed will be. It has been foretold for many thousands of years.

You believed without any evidence.

You trusted enough in spiritual law to devote your energies and time to efforts for which your only compensation was the satisfaction of creating and doing that which you were moved to do from the very depths of your being.

Further, you did this without regard to your physical, emotional, and mental states of being -- trusting that your inner Self was guiding you along the path that was right for you.

My sense is that there is a wave of beings that are about to become fully aware and then be unleashed to do their works among the world.

They will cooperate and work in parallel to completely reorganize the US infrastructure then the world infrastructure. We're talking within a few years, not decades.

This will free people to live peacefully, creatively, and abundantly while they continue to learn their lessons. Physical reality will be the true wonder it was meant to be on this jewel of a planet called Earth.

Enjoy, have fun, be happy, and create well! How else should spirit express in flesh?

There will be no miraculous appearance that changes things over night.

It is up to you, your higher Self to orchestrate the manner in which your mission will be carried out.

This is how reality works in this illusion. There are no shortcuts. You create in accordance with your beliefs. If you want to change your experience, that is the place to work -- with your beliefs!

To get change rolling, we need individuals caring more for themselves, people caring more for people, and the society as a whole caring for everyone because its constituent individuals are caring for one another.

Caring should come as an expression from the heart, a spiritual activity that one engages in daily as a regular part of expressing spirit in flesh.

Further, it is in society's best interest to solve major problems once in the right way, and then apply the solution (with modifications as necessary) to wherever the problem appears.

Big problems do not necessarily require big and costly solutions. The trick is to attack the problems at their root causes and be innovative and flexible.

Don't focus an army of resources on dealing with symptoms.

Make sure the right people are engaged to study and address each problem. Decide which skills are appropriate and get the best team of individuals for the job.

If each person were doing their part, working part time to change the world, the amount of labor would be enormous. At even 1/8 time, that is about one hour per day x 120 Million workers in this country alone.

That's the equivalent of 15 Million people working full time if the energies can be harnessed and applied in a useful manner.

So, how do we organize a massive rebellion within the current system? It's a matter of getting the word out to the right people in a manner that compels them to action in line with an overall plan.

This is how consciousness operates. Each of us has a spiritual job just as we have a physical job.

The rewards of the spiritual job come in terms that the spiritual part within us understands.

Unlike the physical job, which physical circumstances force us to take; the spiritual job must be recognized and volunteered for. It must be done for the sheer joy and love of doing it, or it will not be done at all.

Key people must already understand that a major transformation is the only way to a better future -- one that takes us boldly into the Aquarian Age.

The vision must be realized in spirit, to give it the impetus to be realized in flesh.

It helps if the principles behind the vision are lived daily to provide the pattern from which the life force can activate the material realization.

Don't worry about the details of how the manifestation will be accomplished.

Dream and imagine what is to be as vividly as you can, then speak and act as if it is already accomplished -- and surely it will be done.

Where you can, delegate. Allow the experts to do what they do best. This also frees you to do what you do best and to work on the expansion of your own consciousness.

Follow your own intuition and guidance and you will find out exactly what is most right for you.

There is a greater reality that lies just outside the dimensions of this one. You might say that it is a parallel reality that tracks this one.

In this parallel reality, much construction is underway. The infrastructure is being built that allows for a completely new way of living.

As we speak, this infrastructure nears completion. It is built upon the best ideas for improvement that beings in this reality have dreamt, unfettered by the restrictions of politics or lack of foresight.

For many years, consciousness has listened to all who cared to dream of a better world. If one acted to try to make it so, so much the better, for the force of the vision was multiplied by the number to whom it was transmitted.

Once ideas are able to be expressed physically, they become part of the collective consciousness, where they are accessable by all of like mind who are able to tune into the meaning of these ideas.

Consciousness naturally directs the appropriate information to the attention whenever it is needed.

Remember, the universe naturally works through great cooperation. It is only at the surface of things that choice about cooperation is allowed to provide a challenging environment for experience and growth.

I am a channel through which consciousness does it's works. Yes, it is my ability and talents that are being used, but I am an instrument in many respects.

My consciousness tunes into a wavelength or sound, and I write what I hear and sense.

However, the difference is only subtle between riding with the flow of the consciousness that I am, and the consciousness that I AM.

The same circuits and mechanisms are used. The music that comes out is a bit different, though the difference is difficult to describe.

The bottom line is much that we are taught has no firm foundation in truth.

All of us live our lives on foundations of beliefs.

The fact that millions of people have accepted something as true does not make it so.

We live in a "house of cards" so to speak. Each of us have fabricated and arranged our houses in a manner and order that are unique to us.

Philosophers and scientists have tried to uncover various truths, but this is a very elusive task.

In particular, when it comes to matters of how we relate and interact with each other socially -- the very basis of our civilization, at most what we have is theory; and very weak theory at that.

Consciousness is very tricky, but she does not require techniques that require a math major.

One of the main keys is to use association. This appears to allow information from the subconscious to flow better.

Note: Had a realization earlier this evening. Christ had to come to forgive our sins. The Karma balance program was in error. The penalties were too severe.

Because of this, no one was able to awaken sufficiently to be the example for the coming Age. The programmers got it wrong.

Forgiveness constitutes a resetting of the Karmic balance.

In the real world, the physical and spiritual are integrated to whatever degree the machinery can tolerate. It's as if the body and brain is the hardware, and consciousness is the software.

This is how the body for Cosmic Consciousness will be born.

Individual cells that have focused on their own needs will see how much easier and more effective things can be if cells group together into more efficient specialized units.

Literally, each cell is given a task for which it is suited that is also beneficial to the overall whole. In return for participating in this process, the cell is given all that it needs for as long as it exists.

For real cells, this already exists. For individuals as cells of the body of Cosmic Consciousness, it is not clear how many are already living in this manner, nor how many are required.

Spirit will ensure that those who are needed are where they must be for the Grand Play of Consciousness to proceed according to the Plan for this transfer from one age to another.

The spiritual universe is there, right where you are, but you must change your frequency to see it.

In time, all will see the spiritual universe. Until then, those who have had some awakening should be the wayshowers for others helping to guide the way.

Remember, the government is us, WE the people. When we say that we will have zero unemployment, we mean that WE, the people, guarantee that there will be employment for all.

From another standpoint, we are already there, and are waiting to allow the physical world to catch up to where the spiritual world has reached through imagination.

It is the whole that possesses the knowledge of mankind, and it is this knowledge that drives what appears in our reality.

As soon as we can get minds to where they have new understanding, we also get products that potentially benefit lives because of this new understanding.

All creation is light. It's only in how creation limits itself that the whole range of dark is created and experienced. In truth, it is all illusion, sustained by beliefs that are not aligned with truth.

Self knowledge is the way out of illusion. This has been taught for untold ages, yet few follow the straight and narrow path that leads to enlightenment.

The many are caught in the web of illusion, stuck in a world that is intricate and fascinating.

It will be the psychics and intuitives that will bring through the guidance that helps us through the transformation we will be experiencing.

However, bridge individuals will be able to take what science has wrought and apply it to metaphysics in a manner that transforms the psychic & intuitive arts to the equivalent of sciences in terms of their ability to reliably bring forth consistent information.

My sense is that our free will is confined to where we place our attention, not to the actions that occur.

Most people are fully associated with the body and the actions. Some have found that they can be a watcher of this play of Light and Dark as well.

As the watcher, they begin to wonder why the play is written as it is. From this they learn of their own nature as soul, and see the play as an opportunity to learn.

There is not just one plan! There are many plans interwoven of the same materials and characters.

Each of you have many roles and responsibilities to carry out, some great and some small. This gives your life the richness of interconnectivity that you experience.

Overall, we'll find that cooperation is far superior to competition in many areas of endeavor -- especially those involving human services.

Interdependence comes from allowing for specialization and its inherent efficiencies. The degree to which we are advocating such behavior requires an overall level of trust in the sanctity of the whole endeavor.

It seems that each time we make a choice we further limit not expand our freedom. Nonetheless, if the choices are all made satisfactorily an enjoyable lifestyle can arise.

We can get used to our chains no matter what they are and come to think of them as the gifts and pleasures of life after awhile.

So long as we are kept from dreaming or envisioning what could be, what we have is enough, we simply don't see the limitation.

Do what you love, just do it in a manner that provides benefit to society as well.

For spiritual growth, one must focus on the unfoldment of the flower of consciousness. Consciousness itself must be nurtured, understood, realized, and transcended in a seemingly neverending process.

When you operate heavily from the intuitive side, associations are of great importance and there are no coincidences. All the details are intricately planned to have specific effects.

It's amazing how fine this granularity goes. There is layer upon layer of meaning interposed upon one another in a fashion that allows each of us to get the specific stimuli and experiences that we need for our highest growth.

Because we have a collective mind or collective subconscious, we get the benefit of whatever anyone puts into that collective entity.

Further, since the subconscious operates on a need to know basis, we are given access to whatever information is needed for us to carry out our tasks.

However, the understanding only needs to be at a high level consciously for a whole swell of subconscious information to kick in.

It's as if we're working with icebergs and the conscious mind is only aware of the parts above water. To see the massive parts below, one must first have some inkling that they might indeed be there.

Then, one needs to find appropriate tools or capabilities to explore what is there.

If we have proper beliefs about how these normally hidden parts of mind function, we've taken the first step towards harnessing their capabilities.

The goal is to operate as a whole being in doing whatever tasks that one has taken on in this existence.

We have to know that there is spirit within each and every one of us, start searching for it, and find ways to bring it out. This alone is the path towards correcting our social ills.

As a society, we need to make sure that the right people are being applied to each task. In particular, to the greatest and most important of tasks. For, these must be done right or all of society suffers.

Other tasks have more leeway, allowing errors to be tolerated, but the critical tasks must be done right from a spiritual standpoint.

We are spirit enfleshed every moment of every day. Then, how does a killer or rapist do their deeds? Is this truly spirit in expression? In truth, it must be, for there is simply nothing else that exists. Nothing.

Find a way to integrate the fact that all experience comes from spirit, and then have compassion for all the participants, the perpetrators and the victims.

All are playing out their assigned roles just as surely as you are. Further, all are choosing their experiences. Not at a conscious level, but at a spiritual level that knows what is best for them.

It is not for you to judge what is right or wrong from this. What you should be seeing is the deficiencies in society that allow or force such expressions to happen.

Consciousness only reveals to us what we need to know. Further, even if the words are presented to us, our own consciousness won't let us understand their meaning unless we have a personal need to know.

We have to find effective ways for spirit to more fully express itself in flesh not just on an individual level, but on group and organizational levels as well.

As thoughts, the words are but flights of the imagination. But when we put them down on paper, or any other medium of expression, we go beyond imagination and make them real.

This is reality creation in progress. This is how we change our world, one step at a time, one idea at a time.

We only have to bring forth those ideas whose time has come. These will transform the nation and the world in a manner and at a speed that is beyond what anyone has ever dreamed.

Spiritual transformation is the process of turning oneself inside out so that spirit may do its work in the world through the flesh.

When we live primarily from the conscious mind, we live outside out. We take inputs into the senses and believe that what we perceive of the illusion is real.

The conscious mind is a useful tool and ally, but it is not sufficiently aware to be a useful master for the being. For that we need to turn to other parts more intimately connected with expressing spirit in flesh.

The superconscious is in the best position to serve as master, but it refuses to force itself on the other parts of self.

It works solely via cooperation, gently nudging other parts of self by providing them what they need, and guiding them as to what they need to do.

However, there is hope. Thoughts are the observable behavior of consciousness. In engineering, we've found that you can many times tell a lot about the nature of a machine by observing it's outputs.

Further, the thoughts themselves are describing or at least attempting to describe consciousness itself.

Further still, all is consciousness, so thoughts are just a limited form thereof. Humans as well are consciousness in form.

Yet, it all comes back to ONE consciousness being behind it all.

This is what we must realize, not that I am the same as you, but that the consciousness in me, the spirit in me, is the same as the consciousness, the spirit in you.

We are still individuals in the outer world, but we are one in the inner. Too many of us have forgotten this, if indeed we ever knew it at all.

We saw ourselves as the individual fingers of the two hands treating our fellow fingers on the same hand as brethren, but on the opposite hand as foreigners not knowing that the hand they were part of was an extension of the same body.

When an individual has a realization, consciousness has that same realization.

When a new thought comes through an individual, it is consciousness that has created it.

I know now that all of this comes from consciousness, every bit of it. It doesn't come from some separate entity that you might think me to be as an individual.

All along, my impression that it just comes through, that I have no sense of generating it in any way, has been right.

Consciousness exists independent of our bodies, yet it can use our bodies as vehicles through which to act and to communicate. Further, this consciousness is the same one consciousness for all of us.

Getting people to move from an outward focus to an inner one is not something that is going to happen overnight. Sorry, the outer world is simply too attractive for that to happen.

Those who do have the inner connection will find a renewed strength however, for they will know that regardless of their circumstances they have the full force of consciousness behind them.

Even though they never meet a kindred spirit face to face, they will know that they are there, as close as their own heart, for the life force that animates any of us animates all of us.

While repetition works in building a skill, it is not an efficient way to bring the message of spirit through.

It's much easier to create the basic principles and laws for a world than to create all the detailed behavior first.

The forms that consciousness creates are thought forms. Worlds are thought forms. Universes are thought forms. Beings are thought forms.

Consciousness creates thought forms, period. That's just what it does. To endow these forms with life, to make them real, consciousness allocates part of itself to these thought forms.

One consciousness. All one consciousness. Every thought, every idea comes from that same one source.

When I see an idea come to me from the outside, through reading it or hearing it, what I'm really experiencing is consciousness sending something out and having it be returned to itself.

What allows me to understand anything is consciousness' assessment that I am ready to do so. For, what is understanding? It is giving the conscious whatever is needed to "stand under" the given idea.

If the path is open from the conscious to consciousness, this is easy.

If not, consciousness may be able to arrange for appropriate experiences to support understanding, assuming that the individual is indeed ready to understand.

I know not what audience this is being written for. Regardless, it will probably only reach folks who have some connection already established to consciousness.

Reality creation works from the inside out. Our level of awareness puts us in a position to be of service. Consciousness then moves us into the situations and circumstances that allow our services to be provided.

The name of the game is the expression of consciousness, as fully and as clearly as possible in flesh. It has to be through the creations, or it doesn't count.

The actual creation is consciousness expressed in flesh. This is what consciousness is creating. We are at the pinnacle of that activity.

However, it works two ways. Consciousness has fashioned the clay and breathed life into it. Now, that life needs to stretch back to it's source to allow even more to come through.

To do this, it has to realize that there is a source to begin with, that there is a connection to this source, and that there is great benefit to developing this connection and trusting what comes through it.

Much of this is against everything that one is taught intellectually in the world today. However, that doesn't matter.

What matters is truth, and the truth is that we are consciousness expressing in form, and further that one consciousness expresses through all of us.

The thoughts that consciousness forms have the power to create worlds upon worlds upon worlds, like this very one where we presently find ourselves.

While we're in the game, don't we have to abide by the rules? The bottom line is no you don't.

The game has hard rules and soft rules. It's up to you to find out which one's are soft and in what ways you are allowed to break them.

However, if you never question any of the rules of the game, you just won't know.

In the world, you'll find that for nearly every action, there is a common way to do it, and an uncommon way to do it. The common way is the slow track. The uncommon, the fast track.

For you definitely, and for others reading this, we suggest that you find and follow the fast track. Whenever you do, spirit will always be riding along side you.

Remember, beliefs and questions can be of great help along the way. Use them! And, do so regularly.

As with the body, we need the cells functioning as one, but we don't want one blob of a cell.

To get the behavior of the organization or entity, consciousness expresses through the structures and abilities that the parts permit.
