For the month of August let’s look at some simple concepts to make a point.  A point is defined, it is something, and if there is only one point it is everything.  This point is the only stuff in the universe and everything else is space.  At the point, in the point, or as the point you cannot perceive this local potential; comparison is not possible.  Move into the space and you can perceive the nature of all that is possible back at the point.  But now you are somewhere in space searching for a path or a way to return to the one point where value was perceived through the gap.  In empty space there is no way to trace, map, follow, find or know direction for return.  You are lost and this is a fun game.  Everything is at risk, always and forever without that connection to creation within the point.

You could just label here and now a point.  This is cheating and it creates a new and very different game.  Now we have two points but neither could be “all possible” by definition.  These two points would affect each other by their presence making them two poles and now the game is “make the choice”—but absolute is not on the table.  In this new game you have two defined points, both less than possible and you define self as a gradient between these two points; a reference less than either limited point that you fully identify with as you.  As long as you continue to play this game of free will and choice you have to continually define and defend your devalued reference.  This is a “popular” game with humans and there are many other game options but our goal this month was to keep it simple.

The secret to knowing your game is to watch your language—the words you use frequently as you relate your life story.  If your story is about choice, not enough, no power, constant effort, defensive attitude, immobility (stuck) and no absolute you are in the game of two points with no real value.  But if your story touches on creation, tells about how people love and respect you, everything works well for you and you feel connected to everything you have just move out into the space.  Ouch!!  This is the only place where such comparative language shows up.  Sorry!!

Follow close here for a story reflected from somewhere within the reference of source in the “one point game” would have you feeling secure but not important (no comparison to test you).  You are open to change but not long bouts with trial and error learning.  In fact, in a world of all possible change would be the only constant and disorientation would be a normal state.  You would never know or even care how you are performing nor would you spend time seeking reciprocity.  You could like someone, never need them to like you and feel doing your best was enough.  Humble and grateful are terms that you would identify with.  And of course, you would show no interest in making a point.

As an energy state, freedom is not a “get out of jail free card.”  This state of freedom determines a range where the consequences of your choices are clearly apparent.  One has to develop sufficient discipline not to live in reaction to events in their environment.  The secret to freedom is to pause long enough to assess the consequences of action.  The first level of spiritual growth requires a large chunk or large view in time and space.  If you can perceive all of the effects relative to now in time and space that are an outcome of choices—you then have the freedom to make those choices.  With adequate perception and a current sample of life we gain the wisdom to derive an authentic and optimistic self in this moment now.  Errors only come from inadequate information—too small a view and an out of date sample of reality.

I’ve enjoyed my years as founder and seminary director of the Order of The Ascended Rose.  I held sacred the freedom to create and direct training and share that visionary skill with many staff.  It was amusing when some folks started to view the OAR creation as an establishment and not as a designed experience.  Remember the beast in Revelations?

The organization is still viable; church service will be virtual but teachers are still facilitating classes and we will be conducting a series of seminars when our travel circuit brings us back to southern California.  Keep your eye on the web sites for dates and events.  We will continue to conduct the Preceptorial Training Program and the series of “One on One Exercises” Seminars in the area.

I have retired from my California part time job and without this income we need to move our California home base.  I will stay around for the month of August to be available for readings and healings and still respect the old student price for this service.  Please email your requests and we will schedule a time for you.  Thanks for supporting the freedom.

As a caution, don’t identify father and mother energies with the real complex gender reference of humans.  While it is true that these different energies have a polarity charge—a magnetic attraction and may tend to be invoked more frequently by equated genders—both genders can utilize these different energy natures.  The nature of this father energy is to manage the environment (space outside of self) and search for a place to plant a seed.  This could look like finding a business location, motivating someone with just the right idea or words, or just destroying anything in the way for clearing space for a task.

Father energy is the energy spent to find that place to plant the seeds.  After planting, father energy “trusts” that everything will work out—or the energy state is externalized (don’t take it personal).  The only “lose” in this state is if you need to replant the seed.  This energy is “grief” and the statement it makes is “I didn’t plant the seed very well.”

It is mother’s energy that takes over when we see a “sprout.”  This energy nurtures and “does take it personal.”  If the sprout doesn’t make it “mother” feels “guilt.”  Not so quick to trust and needs an outside reference to know when “she” is done.  Farmers, or just a gardener, in fact, use both states irrelevant of gender. Both energy states have equal potential to hold vision.

OAR as a not-for-profit corporation began with seeds planted in a message in June of 1999 at a hair salon in Encinitas, California.  A lot of those seeds have sprouted.  Such is the nature of father energy and the positive is that the task is done.  Happy father’s day!

To protect and nurture vulnerable buds until flowers bloom is the very nature of mother energy.  But not every quantum of energy blossoms to fruition or is even beautiful.  We started this year looking for the positive—the seeds of happiness within.  This journey began with vision—you need to see the possible.  Lots of potential in the “all possible,” so preference wisely and invest (energize) the ideas of producing happiness.  You are the steward for this process and now is the time you nurture these selections.  Lots of attention but not too much control is the secret.  Implementing a plan or creating a project, needs in the beginning focus, patience and nurturing.  Mother energy is essential to human personality development.

The energy you experience in the relationship with your mother may not be “mother energy.”  Here is a reference I found on www.newsweek.com (February18, 2010) “West Brain, East Brain” by Sharon Begley.  “A region behind the forehead called the medial prefrontal cortex supposedly represents the self:  It is active when we (“we” being the Americans in the study) think of our own identity and traits.  But with Chinese volunteers, the results were strikingly different.  The “me” circuit hummed not only when they thought whether a particular adjective described themselves but also when they considered whether it described their mother.  The Westerners showed no such overlap between self and mom.  Depending on whether one lives in a culture that views the self as autonomous and unique or as connected to and part of a larger whole, this neutral circuit takes on quite different functions.”

Be careful; don’t reduce your ability to energize the idea of self by blocking off a frequency (havingness).  Work with the energy to separate (heal) your reaction to someone or something from the nature of a state; the state of being referenced as “mother energy.”  Happy Mother’s day!

When you are secure with the idea of who you are and you don’t question your every action or struggle with that critic in the head, then the nature of your being present here and now is a service to everyone around you.  Understand this is not by doing more but by the act of just showing up (energize).  Think for a second how often you seek someone that knows about or knows how to work with an issue you are facing.  You are seeking a resource in them.  You are a resource also.

After you get confident in that concept you may discover the resource of stuff.  Not as a consumable resource, any unsecure ego can consume and destroy, but again a resource just by the stuff being.  This could be anything from a national park to a bird in your back yard.  We taste this experience many times as we develop personal self and mature.  A state of stewardship is launched from a very secure platform.  The demonstration for secure in life is the absence in any drop in energy as you show up for an event or just the moment now.

Like a secure person the function of stuff transforms.  Being a steward is not preserving but entertaining the potential for stuff to also develop.  As stewards, your OAR Director and Staff are closing the center in Encinitas at the end of May.  A new entity is being birthed.  Classes, workshops and seminars will continue but the form and location are transforming.  Watch the website and come out to play.  We are always looking for new stewards.
