Finding Harmony
In the past two weeks my wife and
I have been on holiday, in what we call in Australia , a holiday in the sticks
or the bush, it’s basically a holiday out in nature. You would think that
people who are spiritually aware would be right in their element, in actuality
we felt more in tune in our environment at home than in nature.
This is very common, for example,
a person from the city can feel less in tune with nature and the reason for this
is simple. A reality based on city life is very different to a reality based on
a reality more of the natural environment, one environment is natural the other
unnatural. The difference between city
and country life is quite apparent here, however, the difference between a
spiritually aware person’s home environment (reality) and nature isn’t as
apparent; this is because a spiritually aware person’s home is more in tune
with nature.
Once we create our own reality in our home environment,
either that be in the city or country, all other realities automatically become
out of tune with us to one extent or another, in other words, once we create a
harmonious reality, all other realities feel out of tune with us to one extent
or another. We can however find that the natural environment is just as much in
tune with us than our home environment or we can also create a more harmonious
environment at home than there is in nature, this sadly enough isn’t as common.
We so often find ourselves looking and taking observation
outside our home environment to find harmony, meaning, we often look externally
outside our own environment for harmony, this is very common, however, once you
create a more harmonious environment/reality at home, no other reality you
experience is as harmonious no matter how natural it is.
Don't get me wrong, I was often in tune with the natural
environment while on holiday, in my case the natural environment reminded me of
my own environment at home, I was sort of like pining, a deep longing, for my
home environment.
One thing to be aware of is that our home environment can
become a crutch or a fixation to a particular environmental reality, we could
within such realities become unaware of other realities. Considering that any
reality we create exists within other realities, it's not wise to become too
unaware of these other realities.
Sixth Sense Feelings
Are what we feel also what we observe? When you consider
an artists, what comes first, observation/imagination or feelings? Does a would
be scientist have a feeling for science before learning how to observe through
various science techniques?
Now let's also consider an infant, everything an infant
detects through the five senses determines how the infant will feel,
observation being one of them, how often does an infants eyes express what they
are feeling through observation alone?
Believe it or not a good or brilliant artist will have
feelings before observing what they are going to create or visualise, the same
is with science, could you imagine a scientist not having a feeling for
science? Now when we consider an infant, observation seems to determine what
their are going to feel.
I'm going to once again go way out on a limb. There are
feelings brought on by the five sense which psychologically stimulate our mind,
all our five senses stimulate one kind of feeling or another. Let's now
consider feelings beyond our five senses, most often artists, and brilliant
scientists alike, delve into this realm, this is often called the zone. This
zone is often obvious in some of the athletic feats some sports people portray
as well. We are of course talking about a sense beyond the five senses, the
sixth sense.
Do our sixth sense feelings determine what we are going
to observe? Why do certain people have a
more of a feeling for science than artistry for example? Feelings determine
what we are going to observe and how we are going to observe. Artistry is just
as much about observation than science, be it often in a different perspective
and perception to science.
Sixth sense feelings determine how we are going to
observe, in actuality, they determine everything we are going to feel through
our five senses, of course what we feel also determines what reality we create.
From our infancy, we create a reality for ourselves based on our five senses,
we are often conditioned to create realities in this way void of any influence
from our sixth sense feelings.
I feel that artistry gives us a
glimpse of this sixth sense feeling. Artistry often goes beyond the boundaries
of the five senses as artistry is often influenced and conditioned by sixth
sense feelings, in actuality, artists often express something very private in
an open manner. Now consider my last post titled, Openness Leads To
Closeness, we often perceive that artists are distant and reclusive but in
actuality they are more open and truthful than a lot of us.
Observations
We, in a 3rd dimensional reality, perceive to
observe we need sight of vision and to visualise we need the physical mind to
imagine or perceive. This is correct in a reality based on 3rd dimensional five
sense reality but not in a reality based on the sixth sense.
While predominantly using the sixth sense,
feelings become observations, they become one of the same thing. As soon as
sixth sense feelings create an observation through these feelings, a reality
based on feelings is created through a consciousness observing these feelings.
In a sense, all of what a 3rd dimension is about is being created from these
sixth sense feelings being observed, in other words this reality is purely
based on feelings being observed. Of course for this to occur, a consciousness
outside of the limitations of the 3rd dimension needs to exist.
An art student is first instructed to use the five
senses, basically one at a time, and yes, artists do use the five senses in one
sense or another at first, this is a part of the process. I feel an art student
is no longer a student when they purely feel what they are creating void of the
five senses. Learning artistry conditions us to create what we feel, not what
we observe. This 3rd dimensional reality is like an art form still being
created, it's an art form created from feelings being observed and like many
expressions of art, this 3rd dimensional reality is expressed in many different
ways.
How many people are comfortable and in tune
with all forms of art? Not many, this reality is no different, this reality is
certainly more of a form of abstract art than traditional art where you only
express what you observe, not what you feel.....
In 3rd dimensional reality, conditioned by the five
senses, we predominantly feel through our observations. This is different when
a consciousness is predominantly influenced by sixth sense feelings, these
feelings become our observations, meaning, within this state, feelings are what
we observe, abstract art is a very good indication of this.
