The most fortunate are those who have no desires because there is fulfillment before a desire can arise.

Subject: “A Creative Life” 

Received by Oscar. 

Thought Adjuster: “Your projects are My projects because anything your soul wishes to realize or materialize in this world — your reality — is a creative expression coming from Source. All creation comes from your Father and it is only through your creativity that you can become an original reflection of God. 

“A valuable life from the point of view of eternity is a life filled with creativity, with co-creative endeavors where a creature progressively learns to listen to his or her higher impulses and uses the resources provided by the Father to his or her personality, converting this inspiration into realities and transforming the potentials into matter or action. Many of your celebrities of past and present who are seen as great men and women should be recognized by the criteria of how many things from on high they managed to manifest in this world — how much inspiration they received which they then converted into reality to be enjoyed by their brothers and sisters. 

“Your imagination is the source of your reality. It is in your mind where you decide how to live and how you see your world. It is your collective vision that determines your collective reality. All the blessings you enjoy in your world today are the product of the efforts of one or more human beings from the present or past who created something from the ideas that arose in their hearts. Also, many of the problems you face today are caused by the unwillingness of many to do what their souls tell them is right. The world of today with all its aberrations and abnormalities is not the result of those who really attempt to do evil — they are not as many as you may think. The world of today owes a great deal to indolence and inertia — the great poisons of spiritual progress. 

“All men and women gifted with a normal mind feel the impulse in their hearts to create something. This is part of your nature and your purpose because you have been created in the image of the Creator and you are expected to be increasingly more like your Celestial Father. The creative impulse is innate in human beings. For this reason, when we prevent this inspiration from flowing naturally to ourselves or to others, the entire system feels affected. To ignore your creativity is to deny yourselves what you really are. It is the equivalent of your deciding to stop breathing. 

“Open today the gates of your heart and let yourself be inundated by the continuous overflow of inspiration that comes from the Divine Presence within. Let yourselves be touched by the voice of the Father to motivate you into action and for the great endeavors of the present and future for those who will contribute to make this earth a real paradise. To exercise your creative privileges is to do the Will of God, because creature and Creator build together a universe increasingly representative of the Father’s intent. 

“Especially when a human being is creating does the spark of life shine with more intensity. Creativity inspires more creativity and mind and spirit start to work at higher levels of harmony and efficiency, strengthening and elevating the immortal soul and preparing it for the next levels of existence.”

Heavenletter #5158 Behold Yourself Like a Blazing Sunrise, January 8, 2015 

God said: 

I am honored to be God. Therefore, I am honored to be you. However you may appear, there is more to you than meets the eye. You are a precious child of Mine, made of Myself, and you are very precious to Me. In fact, I repeat in as many ways as I can think of to say that We are One. There is no separation here.

Then you wonder how it can be that I, if you are indeed I, wander from Myself as it certainly seems to happen in the world.

It is as if I pull the wool over My individual eyes. I, appearing as you, temporarily forget Who I Am. You forget Who You Are. I, God, the erstwhile God, do not dismiss you because of this. I do not oust you from My heart.

You begin to see how all this on Earth is much like a game, yet Who is fooling Whom? This thing with pronouns is that I can hardly keep them straight. You, I, in Truth are One. For the sake of clarity in this game, We say you, and We say I. We talk as if, as if We were two or more. We try to keep Our parts straight. It is muddling, isn’t it?

What is not true is confusing. And what is pure Truth may often be beyond your awareness and acceptance. Today you may feel like a miserable character whereas God has to be way far beyond misery. The Truth of you is that you are beyond misery, and yet, while you (really I) are on Earth, you are such a great actor that you fool yourself.

Yet, within you, there is a core that is not fooled. Yes, even within you, you as your presently known personality, know better. You know that you are much more than you credit yourself with -- more than you like to credit yourself. You have reluctance born of fear.

To love God, you can accept. To be God, you don’t want the responsibility. You fear failure. It is one thing to flunk as a human being. To be a God Who Could Be Lacking would do you in. Too terrible to even think about.

You are not separated from your Self except in your imagination. In your imagination, you are not separated from your Self by one veil but by a thousand and one veils. You put up this blockade, a house not made of mortar, a Jerry-built house to call your own and keep you from breaking the news to yourself that you are Greatness Itself.

You keep your head down. However, your head and heart are going to rise. It is inevitable. That little house of your body is way too small for you. You can’t play hide and seek there. The time will come when you will burst your bounds and knowingly encompass the Universe. You will burst out like a blazing Sunrise and you will behold. You will behold yourself in the Bright Light of Day.

You will see all your reservations and inhibitions as the repressors they always have been and how flimsy they really were. They were only silly restraints from the Splendor that you actually are.

It’s hard to believe that you would choose less than you are, yet this is an old story, told again and again. You keep yourself in a little puddle rather than to dive into the Ocean Deep. Unbelievable, isn’t it, that you believe you are a little frog? Of course, the little frog is an Enchanted Prince. What did you think that story was about? It is about you and your evolution and your repression and lack of expression and your belief that to expand to your true unboundedness would undo you. Yes, it would undo you from deception. Yes, you have deceived yourself, and you have deceived the whole world, and for what, I ask you?

Some day you will rise out of the little hovel you have placed yourself in, and I ask you, as I have asked you a multitude of times, if you’re going to rise out of the hovel and come out of hiding anyway, for Heaven’s Sakes, why not do it now? You are such a little thread away. It is not a thread that binds. It is you that binds. Throw off those shackles and blinders. There is nothing real that separates you from Oneness but your old offhand habit of disowning of your Self.

The Peak of Perfection 
You can climb the peak of perfection through resolute will, intense dispassion, renunciation and rigorous meditation. Sublime divine thought is very powerful, it is a dynamic transmuting force. Diligently seek the path of truth; tread it carefully and vigilantly, for you may slip and fall. Love is harmlessness, kindness, compassion. Nothing can tempt you if you are regular in meditation. He who is pure at heart has already found divinity. Renunciation of egoism is the direct way to the eternal.
Knowledge of the imperishable bestows perfect freedom and independence. Where egoism is, immortality is not; where immortality is, egoism is not. Concentration will give you great power. Collect the scattered rays of the mind. Lust and greed make you a spiritual bankrupt. Purity and meditation bestow on you inexhaustible divine wealth.
A yogi becomes the master-builder of the temple of truth. Pass through the gate of wisdom - you will reach the illimitable domain of eternal bliss. He who is endowed with discrimination and power and concentration climbs rapidly to the peak of illumination. Your real guru (preceptor) is your own heart - he is the indweller, the inner ruler.
Longing for final liberation is the hunger for the spiritual food of knowledge of the eternal. Mind is the mirror through which the eternal appears as the universe of names and forms. Be in the world - not of the world. This is the highest yoga. This is the eternal wisdom. The wise man is ever eager to learn, he never poses as a teacher.
This visible world is the mirror of the invisible Brahman. You are a slave of circumstances because you do not meditate regularly. You will easily get illumination in solitude. Solitude has its own charms - prepare yourself for life in seclusion. Control and preserve energy through silence, brahmacharya (celibacy) and pranayama (yoga breathing), - you will have wonderful meditation. Love that man who dislikes you - you will grow strong. Money wasted can be restored, but time wasted is lost forever. Find out your centre - that centre is perfect harmony, eternal bliss, your own immortal soul.
