Touching Source

So often we affirm, "God is my Source!", without realizing the depth of what we are declaring.  There is an experience that goes along with this and it is one that goes way beyond any concept  of prosperity.  It is more an experience of touching essence vs. trying to create a particular expression. 

The further you go toward realizing your eternal spiritual self, the heavier earth expression becomes.  Eventually we get through this, but until we do the antidote for the frustration over the heaviness is to "touch Source".  And quite frankly, by touching Source, we re-connect with the invisible powers that create life and set in motion forces that answer prayers and fulfill our heart's desires.  That is why, for property, we affirm, "God is my Source."  It puts us in contact with the creative power of the universe.

However, I want to go beyond "creating the expression I want", and going there for what it will do for me here in earthlife, and talk about the totally abstract experience of  "Touching Source", entering the eternal essence.  When we touch Source, we let go of all expression, we retreat into the "unformed", and for those of us who are starting to awaken to a Self that is Spiritual not physical, there is a tremendous sense of RELIEF!

Let go of everything and slip backward from individual expression into the vast ocean of unformed from which all formed flows.  It is beyond time, space, & definition.  It cannot be described.  And some simply describe it as the VOID.  Those horrified by loss of individuality call it NOTHING (No-Thing) and they would be accurate.  I know an individual who go there and was horrified to find "No-Thing".  It scared her.  And my explanation that "nothing" is the flip side of "everything", brought her no comfort. 

But let me point out that though she did enter into the void and find No-Thing there, she did return into her individualized life.  She did NOT loose herself and find no way to return.  She naturally flowed back out of the unformed into the formed.  That is the way "expression" works, it naturally flows out of "No-Thing" (the unformed) into the Formed.  And that is why it is so powerful in making a prosperity demonstration, to carry your prayer into the unformed and then flow back out into formed expression.  Within the unformed, all form is possible without effort.

However, just as a matter of course we need to touch Source as often as possible, to open up that natural flow through our consciousness.  Notice that natural flow is always happening or formed life would not exist.  The opening is into our "awareness" or "consciousness".  Only when we are aware can we choose to "consciously rely" on Source, rather than wrestle with the world of things, totally unconscious that Source is what is actually creating our lives.

In the end we will "touch Source" not simply to create things in our lives.  We will touch it for "relief" from life, and in order to return to individual expression renewed and rededicated to the particular possibility that we are exploring.  We touch Source because in the end, IT is real, and all this out here is not.  Just touching that which is eternal, empowers us beyond anything the world can give us.

What comes to mind is a race of beings in the Sci-Fi series, "Deep Space 9".  Odo (don't know if I got the name right) is a shape-shifter who must once during  his daily cycle return to an unformed puddle of liquid for a rest period.  Then he can rise into shape again.  When his planet of beings is described, the series shows each dipping into the ocean of unformed beingness together and occasionally rising out of it into individual expression in order to accomplish some task in the outer world.  The ocean of "Being" is described as nurturing, renewing, and comforting beyond anything that the outer world can offer.

"Touching Source" is real!  When placed on a background of only having experienced "expression" it can feel like "No-Thing".  It can be called going into the VOID.  We describe it as entering "Being" rather than "doing or thinking".  If you let go of everything for a moment you will slip into the void.  But you will naturally return.  I remember in Hypnosis training (my dad was the teacher), the clear teaching was that it is a myth that someone might go under hypnosis and not wake up.  The problem is keeping them "under", not "bringing them back".  In worst case scenario they will sleep it off in a short time.  Thus it is with source.  The problem is learning to enter it, not worrying about returning to outer expression.

So I urge you to let go and "touch Source" throughout your day.  Become aware of the nothingness from which all something-ness flows.  Just touching the Source will be nurturing, comforting, renewing beyond anything outer life has to offer.  And then there are the by-products.  You know:  Answered prayer, prosperity, & healing out here in the dream.
