      • Yin Yang Casting Stones
      • The Law of Detachment

        The speed at which you consciously create can be calculated
        by the amount of belief (knowingness) that you possess about
        your goal being a fact, multiplied by your willingness to
        allow it to come into your life, easily and effortlessly.

        If there is something that you want, a goal that you have in
        mind, that has not come into your life yet, then there is
        only one reason that it is not here - resistance and
        attachment.

        “The Law of Detachment says that in order to acquire
        anything in the physical universe, you have to relinquish
        your attachment to it.” –Deepak Chopra, in The Seven
        Spiritual Laws of Success.

        The Law of Allowing therefore is the application of the
        above definition, and allowing your good to flow to you by
        being totally detached from the outcome .

        Whatever you want, be it love, abundance, a new home, a
        vacation, or more friends, you must be willing to be
        detached from having it, in order to attract it.

        A good example of this Law is from the book Mutant Message
        Down Under by Marlo Morgan.  To the best of my recollection,
        the story illustrates the Law of Detachment when the author
        goes on a four-month walk-about with the Aboriginals in
        Australia.

        After gaining their trust, they honor her by asking her to
        lead them on their daily quest for food. Fearing that she
        can’t possibly know where or how to find their next meal,
        Marlo tries to deny the request, but they insist.  She
        begins the long walk.

        Days go by and she has not found any food or water.  Her
        fear consumes her, as she begs the tribe to take over.  Her
        feelings of shame for not being “good enough” to lead the
        tribe, and her feelings of “guilt” for being the cause of
        their famished thirst and hunger are breaking her.

        Finally, when she realizes her pleas will forever be denied,
        and that she can’t do anymore than she is doing - she
        surrenders.  She doesn’t give up, but instead she “hands it
        over.”  It is then, that food appears and water is found.

        To enact the Law of Detachment, you must let go of your
        attachment to EVER having your desire come to pass.  The
        more you resist this, the more attached you are, and
        therefore the longer it will take to manifest.

        The caveat in practicing the Law of Detachment is that you
        must not allow yourself to become resigned.  Allowing the
        Universe to handle your life feels positive, and wonderful.
        While resigning yourself feels negative , complacent, and
        will eventually result in a dispassionate, apathetic feeling
        of disconnection and possibly hopelessness.

        One method for monitoring how well you are doing at
        practicing the Law of Detachment is to ask yourself how you
        are feeling.

        If you feel positive, then in this moment - you are not
        attached, you are instead detached.  If you feel negative,
        then you know you are attached, and you need to let go of
        whatever the fear is that you are resisting, and hand your
        desire over to your higher power.

      • The Importance of Dreams
      •  
        One of the ways of discovering the multifaceted way that dreams are significant in the creative cycle of our experiences here on earth is to keep a dream journal along with what Julia Cameron coined the Morning Pages (a daily journal) in her book The Artists Way. There are three cardinal rules for keeping Morning Pages:
         
        1. Write in your journal every morning, before starting the daily grind
        2. Once you put pen to paper you may not stop writing and you must fill three pages
        3. You may not re-read what you have written
         
        The main aim of this exercise is to get rid of residual mental discharge and to create a non-judgmental gateway for the energy of the psyche to flow through and find its natural equilibrium between the subconscious, the conscious and the collective conscious. Julia called it the “brain drain” and insists that daily use of this journaling technique brings about a shift in perspective that allows the synchronicity of life to unfold before our very eyes.
         
        Dream journaling must be done before Morning Pages and its effectiveness rests in one’s ability to hold the mind at bay when waking up. It requires us to remain in a feeling state; a state of observing, preferably without judgment (which the Morning Pages teaches us over time) as we conjure once again the motion pictures that played in the cinema of our mind’s eye and record their song, their story.
         
        We are most in-tune with the natural flow of the cosmos in the moments right after waking – like a newborn child entering the world and seeing it through eyes that trust an inner knowing. There are no questions, until the ego starts asking them.
         
        “The internal dialogue is what grounds people in the daily world. The world is such and such or so and so, only because we talk to ourselves about its being such and such and so and so. The passageway into the world of shamans opens up after the warrior has learned to shut off his internal dialogue.” - carlos castaneda
         
        Remembering how to hold the ego at bay takes a little practice– just think about how easy it was for us to remember our dreams as children and how oftentimes we were able to be actively involved in our dreams. This is why many cultures around the world whose belief systems are rooted in Earth energy employ religious notions that call for parents to ask their children every morning what they dreamed the night before. They understand the value of being able to keep the deep inner workings of the psyche during dream-states alive in order to synchronize the conscious self with the subconscious and the super/collective conscious.
         
        When we work with our own personal dream-states and consciously create a non-judgmental gateway for our inner dialogues to discharge, we begin to see the patterns they weave within our psyches; we see how different levels of dreaming correspond to the different levels of psychological states we use to engage with the realties of our waking world. It is only when we acknowledge the dream as an intrinsic aspect in the cycle of creation, do we wake up and realize (real-eyes) the quantum mechanics of creation.
         
        We create our own realities. There is no singular reality. Each of us has a unique interpretation of what is, and it is through the creation of this interpretation and the exploration of its validity, that we are able to more consciously create realities that we desire.
         
        Tapping into our dreams and their connection to the way we play out our beliefs in the waking world brings us to a place within where we experience the notion of time being art: consciousness in motion. It gives us response-ability for that which we observe within our lives and relieves us of placing that responsibility on the archetypes that convey this consciousness to us in our lives – both in the dream-state and those in our waking world.
         
        There are four main categories of dreams:
         
        1. The Declutter Dream
        2. The Role-Play Dream
        3. The Spiritual Dream
        4. The Lucid Dream
         
        The Declutter Dream is seldom remembered as it is merely a mental discharge of energy. If you have spent the whole day swimming in the ocean for example, or playing computer games, your psyche clears out the repetitive residual energy patterns the repetitious activity left behind in the mind. This state of dreaming usually takes place before the heavy states of deep dreaming occur and often lead into the next level of dreaming.
         
        The Role-Play dream speaks to us in a metaphorical language of moving images. The perspective of the dreamer along with the images within the dream all create the metaphor for what the psyche is trying to conceptualise. Role-Play dreams use images that the dreamer will personally identify with – it will relate to something within the dreamers frame of reference. For example:
         
        Jane has a recurring dream that she is being chased by a swarm of bees while she is on a rooftop. She runs away in panic until she eventually gets to the end of the roof and she gives in and jumps off the roof. She awakes before landing feeling flustered and frustrated. When asked, Jane says that she is experiencing the dream from a third-person perspective - she is watching herself run from the bees – until she has to jump whereupon she experiences the dream in the first person.
         
        When looking at the dream within the context of her waking energy patterns, Jane can begin to see how her dream is telling her how she reacts to a life situation that causes her frustration.
         
        Jane feels pressured with the amount of work she has to do by a certain deadline – the bees symbolizing the busyness of her working day and the many responsibilities she has to tend to. The rooftop symbolizes the fact that she feels like her workload is above her ability to cope and the fact that she does not perceive the dream from the first-person perspective while she is running from the bees symbolizes the fact that she is not able to be in her body while dealing with the issue – she is stressed out and panicked. In the end however, she comes into first-person perspective and jumps off the roof: she realizes that she has no other option but to get back down to earth and face the issues at hand and her dream-state allows her to role-play this scenario.
         
        If Jane were to give herself more time to de-stress and come into her body, she would be able to set up clear boundaries for herself in order to create emotional harmony within her work environment. She would be able to feel in control of her life and able to make decisions that would sustain a healthy mind-state.
         
        The metaphors in Jane’s dream – the bees for example– are things she can relate to in her everyday life. “Busy as a bee” is something she knows well and can identify with. Someone living in a culture that does not know that expression or identify with it, would not use that metaphor during role-play dreaming, instead they would use metaphors relating to their own personal frame of reference.
         
        The Spiritual Dream uses imagery that is beyond the scope of personal reference and one would not have to have even seen the symbol before for it to appear within the context of a spiritual dream. There are many different spiritual symbols and imagery that carry specific messages and meanings and often spiritual dreams are related as being very enlightening and vivid experiences.
         
        Finally, the Lucid Dream is one where the dreamer is aware of the dream-state and becomes actively involved in the dream. This is also known as astral travelling and can be used to both consciously experience a dream or to control and direct the dream. During a lucid dream one travels at the speed of thought which is faster than the speed of light: you direct your motion with your will.
         
        Lucid dreaming has long been used by shamans and light workers to gain wisdom and information as well as for healing past traumas and ailments. They understand that everything first exists as pure energy before manifesting on the physical plane and they use the dream-state to access this energy and for seeing the patterns that hold the physical in place. Lucid Dreaming can also be used to access past lives and information stored in the collective psyche; what you do with this information is then up to you.
         
        Keeping a dream journal will greatly enhance your ability to lucid dream as one of the main keys to unlocking this innate ability is above average dream recall. Practice and patience are vital in becoming adept at recalling your dreams and as you become more and more familiar with your dream-states, the more you will become aware of yourself within them.
         
        Dreaming is important because it connects us to our deepest inner workings. We are able to become more fully aware of our instinctive behaviour patterns as well as develop new ones and test them out within a safe environment. Dreaming also gives us room to explore our imaginations and creativity. There is nothing more important in consciously creating the reality you desire than a healthy imagination.
         
        “Imagination is more important than knowledge” – Albert Einstein
         
        Dreams allow us to explore the wonderlands of our desires, the pathways to our bliss and the songs that warm our hearts. They are the fertile grounds where we plant the seeds of our hopes and aspirations and when watered with our devotion, they become the roots of our realities.
