The Freedom to Think
The freedom to use our minds is a great power that many people do not comprehend. We have complete control over what we spend our time thinking about. The Cosmic Creator has given us this liberty, and we often use that freedom to engage in unhealthy thinking and entangle our minds in endless falsehoods and diversions.
When we investigate how our thought structures shape our perception of the world, it becomes evident how our species has played a significant role in constructing a world rife with suffering. Our collective flawed thinking passed down through generations, has sustained the delusions that govern our existence. However, it is within our power, as individuals, to challenge and dismantle these illusions in our own lives through introspection and understanding, thereby paving the way for true happiness.
Humanity has slowly evolved as a species, which has brought us, perhaps ironically, to the brink of extinction. If we survive this phase, our species will continue evolving towards a more refined version of itself. The issues of today will one day be viewed with nostalgia and amusement as we reflect on the foolishness of our past ways.
As individuals, we don't have time to wait for evolution to bring us our power and happiness. The present moment is all we have; in this moment, we can change our thinking and reap its effects here and now. By consciously using our minds, we can bring about positive changes in our own lives and the lives of others, instilling a sense of hope and motivation for the future.
Encountering The Shekinah
Infinite intelligence provides us with a way to return to healthy thinking instantly. This way is accessed through the Shekinah. Sometimes referred to as the Goddess, the Holy Spirit, or Divine Substance, Shekinah is the light our Teacher works through to guide us back to the truth. Even if you are unfamiliar with any specific name for her, you have likely felt her presence because she has always been with you, regardless of whether you know her. The Shekinah is often perceived as a beautiful, subtle, and indescribable presence in a room. If you have ever noticed a change in energy directly after a room has been cleaned and tidied, this experience hints at how her presence feels.
The Shekinah is the spiritual light that exists behind all physical light. Stories often represent it as manifestations such as fairy dust and magical puffs of smoke. The Shekinah is considered to be the divine Substance known as the "Dwelling Place of God". It is the sparkling, sublime energy that brings everything into existence.
Our inner guide and teaching angels work through Shekinah to reach and guide us. Embracing their guidance through Shekinah requires a sincere desire on our part. This process also demands a genuine willingness to release the ego's grip, which can sometimes feel challenging. It takes courage to let go of the ego because it fuels our fears and insecurities. Trusting in our inner teacher requires a commitment to recognizing the limitations imposed by the ego and being open to the wisdom and truth that come from the Teacher within us.
Connecting with Shekinah is an individual experience; there is no right or wrong way to do it. She brings about a feeling described as being peaceful, joyful, serene, poised, ecstatic, and relaxed, all at the same time. Before engaging in magical or spiritual work, it's important to tune into her presence and feel her energy, even if it's only a slight inkling. Shekinah is always present, but we must take a moment to sense her presence before proceeding with our magic.
It is through Shekinah that one accomplishes anything in magic or prayer. Her presence is recognized by a feeling, even if it's faint. Simply feeling slightly better than before attempting to tune into her is sufficient. Dedicating a few minutes each day to being aware of this special feeling helps us understand her as she gradually reveals herself to us in her unique way. By continuously tuning into the sensation of her presence, we draw ever closer to her essence.
Recognizing Illusions
The Craft of The Wise calls us to acknowledge and transcend the ego's influence. In doing so, we reconnect with our true essence, realizing we are not separate from our Creator but integral to the Divine. By shedding the ego's illusions, we gain a clearer view of ourselves and the world, free from its distortions and falsehoods. This heightened awareness enables us to live more authentically and harmoniously with the truth of our being.
When our species first pondered the false notion of separation, we gave birth to the concept of lack. Consequently, we started to experience a void or a sense of something missing in our lives. Have you ever woken up with a vague guilt without knowing what you did wrong? That feeling stems from the initial guilt of believing we caused something bad to happen by disconnecting from the Infinite. We constantly try desperately to fill that void that we believe was left when we left God's presence.
Most of us are somewhat compulsive in our need to fill this sense of emptiness with behaviors that aren't very healthy. Our behaviors reinforce our false beliefs, and those beliefs prompt more unhealthy behavior. The ego urges us to seek fulfillment in worldly things rather than finding it within ourselves to keep this feedback loop active.
The ego's insanity becomes apparent when we realize that its thought system is the sole cause of our feelings of lack. Without the ego, we lack for nothing. The ego has convinced us that we need it to fill a lack that never existed. Understanding this helps us recognize illusions.
We remain connected to our Creator and always have been. Therefore, the void we think needs to be filled does not exist. The ego convinced us that the void was there, and we believed it. We don’t need to do anything to be with our Creator because it was never the Creator's will for us to be separate.
Whatever God does not will cannot exist. Nevertheless, we are free to contemplate anything we desire. Consequently, all lack is thus a product of our imaginations. God patiently waits as we reside in this illusion of our vain imaginings until we give it up. However, God will not force us to relinquish it.
Embracing the State of Guiltlessness
Our creator did not make us guilty, nor is it the creator’s will for us to be guilty. What is not willed by the creator cannot exist; therefore, guilt cannot be a part of our true nature. This truth is immutable. You can believe in a falsehood, but that does not make it real. We may cling to false ideas, but that does not bring them into existence except within our imaginations.
Believing that we are separated from Infinite Intelligence makes us see ourselves as lacking and flawed. Life then shows us evidence of this lack, such as poverty, suffering, and disease. These reflections are not ultimate reality as they are projections of false thinking, not Divine Will.
Of course, when someone is going through one of these "real world" traumas it is rarely helpful to tell them it's all in their imagination. But if it's happening to you, then you can recognize the illusion for what it is and claim, "This is not part of Divine Will so it cannot exist. Let Divine Will manifest."
Remember that the world of the ego is a world of tragedy. There is ultimately no escaping tragedy in this world; however, Divine Will does not include tragedy. All things in this world that do not reflect the Divine Will have no substance; therefore, they are subject to change. When we let go of our attachment to these things and let Shekinah transform each thing into something that reflects Divine Will, we watch our lives change for the better.
Approaching the Bridge of Perception
Imagine a bridge of awareness. On one side, it's dark and filled with illusions of lack and suffering, while on the other side lies all the blessings and abundance that Universal Intelligence has already bestowed upon you. Picture a beautiful angel of light standing on that side of the bridge, with hands outstretched, ready to guide you across. Shekinah's silver and gold glitter floods the bridge, offering you perfect safety and serenity when you cross. Nothing can stop you from crossing that bridge, except indulgence in the distractions of the Ego.
Every day, you will encounter things that disturb your peace—issues that you don't know how to solve. Ask yourself: is this eternal? Is it perfect? Is it loving? If the answer to even one of these questions is 'no,' then you're looking at an illusion. Recognize it as such and let it go. It's not your job to heal these illusions, but it is your job to recognize them as unreal and decide that you don't want to keep them. Learn not to let your ego distract you with its 'urgent' needs. These are ploys to keep you busy and delay you. Let your guidance come from your Teacher through the peaceful and magical presence of Shekinah.
Be consistent in reminding yourself of the truth. You don't need to be perfect at this; just doing the best you can at the moment opens the door to all the divine guidance you need. Remember your identity as a holy child of the Infinite. No tragedy, illness, debt, lack, or suffering defines you. These are illusions meant to distract you from your true nature. Stand firm in your identity, knowing that you are invulnerable and eternal. Say, “I am Spirit. I am free.”
A Powerful Spiritual Practice
A powerful practice is to laugh at the ego's dramatics. The magic of the witch’s laugh cannot be overstated. A witch’s cackle is only the beginning. The witch’s belly laugh is what we are after.
Laughter proves to us that we have seen through an illusion. For instance, I once had $25,000 in debt. Emotionally, it seemed overwhelming. But when I saw its absurdity, I laughed at it. I kept laughing. I think I laughed for about 10 straight minutes because then I started thinking about the absurdity of so many other things that the whole unexpected laugh session snowballed.
I then acknowledged the entire condition as a false creation of the ego. Soon after, through a seemingly miraculous event, the debt was eradicated, and the thinking that caused me to get into debt in the first place was healed. It showed me how quickly and effortlessly our worries can vanish when we see them for what they are — illusions.
When you encounter a challenging situation, laugh at it and declare, "This is not real; it has no power over me. I am Spirit. I am free.” Your task is to refuse to let the illusion take hold of your mind. By consistently doing this, Shekinah can carry out her purpose of healing the root cause of these illusions. As a result, your life will exhibit more love, abundance, and joy because you are in harmony with the truth. But you must notice them as illusions and not want to keep them. Shekinah does everything else.
Don't worry that you will be irresponsible by doing this. As you open your mind to guidance, you will find that you take things one step at a time, guided each step of the way until you are safely and completely out of your problem. Whatever actions you need to take will be indicated. You will do all the right things at the right time, and all will be well because you are allowing Divine Will to manifest in place of the projections of the vain imaginings of the ego.
Accepting Your Inheritance
Your role is not to solve problems. Instead, you are here to differentiate truth from illusion. When you no longer see illusions as true and no longer desire to keep them, this creates the necessary conditions for Shekinah to heal your mind. Remember that your ego creates problems to distract you by making you believe that it's your responsibility to solve them.
Reject illusions and welcome the truth. Anticipate incredible change as you connect with your Divine Guide, who ensures success. Affirm to yourself today, 'I want to see the truth, to rid myself of illusions, and to embrace the divine inheritance that is rightfully mine.' Stay steadfast, and you will witness profound transformations in your life.
