What is the feeling of Naturalness?
That’s a great question, because it’s very vague and wispy when you think about it. If you think the thought, I live in [state country] and imagine yourself walking down the street, that would likely feel real. Now if you do the same but with the Moon, say, ‘I live on the moon’ and see yourself jumping about like an astronaut, then that won’t have naturalness with it. So what is the difference, in feeling and the visual field? For me, it’s possible to make it as vivid (although there is, when I concentrate very hard) sometimes a cartoonishness around the impossible (visually) and the emotion of gratitude isn’t there, though I can consciously create it.
The disease of naturalness seems to be intangible, but as subtle as it is, it is something. There is a vague ‘realness’ which gives it a tendency to be a habit of thought. When a mental picture, whether it is a past memory of something that happened in the past (real or imagined) or a wish or fear for the future have a feeling of naturalness (reality), they tend to be frequent, i.e. things you know (or think you know) to be true, then to keep arising spontaneously in consciousness.
The Truth about I AM
You won’t read this anywhere else, but there are two I AMs. and they are creating each others reality. The goal is for unity in a single world. As it is, in this world, the other is the master, creating your reality with the concepts and energies it holds and creates, and in it’s world, you are both creators. The energies, beliefs and self-concepts, held in it’s light are spontaneously created according to the state you create within your mind, like a siren calling to the sailors, but you can always choose to rein there, and all that it holds, you gave it.
It’s like a sleeping demiurge, a second you, a real you, that holds what you gave it over the threshold and never questions you for you are its God, and thus there is a reality to what it is holding, a naturalness, because it never questions you.
To consciously create this feeling of naturalness, you have to give it your intentions over the threshold with strong intent, emotion, and do so frequently. Each time you disappear from this world, you take with you a gift, which is held (by the light) and shines back to you. This is how your trance practice will transform your waking life, by being wide awake crossing into its world, where previously you were sleeping.
You know naturalness exists in your waking consciousness when you hold yourself in the wish fulfilled in that consciousness and there is no contrary thought or doubt arising, nor even the hint of thought pressure of one arising. Also, the surrounding or following fantasies or daydreams or thoughts are congruent with the intention. It means both Gods in both worlds are dreaming the same dream, and soon the God here will see it with its eyes.
More about Frequency, in the light of Neville Goddard – and the theory of Astral Light
In manifestation terms, frequency is simply how often you think about something. This can be because of the things that happened to you in the past creating self-concept, or it can be new habits of thought you are consciously creating. Because what exactly is a thought, or a belief or a state? A state seems to be an underlying feeling, it’s a sensation in the body if you look closely, and if it’s positive it seems to be higher up in the body and if it’s negative it can occur lower down. You know it is there because it has a tendency to produce certain mental pictures with knowings about self-concept.
So for example, if you are feeling depressed, then on a sensation level there might be a heavy feeling around the stomach area. And mentally, mental pictures arise from it, for example, of you asking a friend to borrow money or visiting a foodbank or signing on for welfare. So now you can label this sensation (from the state) as fear/worry about money and it is linked to a self-concept of ‘I am going bankrupt’ or ‘I am a financial mess’. This may or may not have manifested already into the world you can physically perceive, whether it is your future depends on frequency and naturalness.
The point is that you have control. The states themselves are very vague. Before anything they are simply sensations. Those sensations trigger certain kinds of thoughts and self-concept. You can practice energy techniques and consciously move these sensations, or create or cease them because they are actually an energy that exists in the energy body (the etheric body) which intersperses the physical body.
If you look mindfully, there are distinct sensations which accompany various states. So say you are feeling inspired or are having a very spiritual experience, that often manifests as a sensation around the crown. Now if you look at it in a material way and investigate this looking for a physical cause of the sensations, then you are not going to find it (generally). You can look at the brain and look for a way it is existing when feelings of intense spirituality are existing, and then look for a cause that would link it to a sensation around the crown and I think it would not be found, because it is not a physical cause. It is an energetic cause that is being felt in the etheric body.
Sometimes, there would be a correlation, there are physical feelings that correlate to states. For example, perhaps some of the sensation felt during a state of intense fear is around the stomach area and it could be physically linked to the release of adrenalin, but when you have (naturally or develop overtime) good body awareness, you’ll see the sensations that you experience are wide and changing and cannot have physical causes, and also you can cause, control and direct the sensations with your will. See my other writings about energy work to develop these ideas further.
Ultimately, there is nothing existing at all except a primordial energy. This energy is pure and indefinable. But somehow it descends into creation and becomes a light. Astral light. It’s the infinite possibility of everything that exists. Somehow, individual will is created within this light and this is your mind, or more specifically, your imagination. You can look into your mind now and imagine anything you want. Now that this is based on some uniform astral light, has to be an act of faith (probably, I apologize if you know what I’m talking about at this point). You can learn to astrally project, i.e. disregard your physical body, exist within this light (living within your mind, the astral, a separate realm where you can exist in a corresponding body) and when you look closely at any phenomena which exists (and you instantly create as an act of will) although it’s hard to observe, you’ll see that is in fact light.
Almost all cultures and spiritual traditions have a concept of an underlying light of spirit to creation, and Neville Goddard referred to this as ‘the wonderful human imagination’, but I’d further define it as the connection that your individual sense of self has to the astral light that your separate body can use to create the inner realm.
So you can choose to imagine whatever you want. Though often we’re either not mindful, or we are mentally passive and only watch what spontaneously arises in the mind. That’s not hard to see because it only becomes quiet with much practice. If you sit and watch the mind then mental pictures spontaneously are created out of the astral light, memories, worries, hopes, resentments, possibilities. They show that your individual light is somehow containing tendencies for these pictures, pasts and possibilities to be created.
So you are looking within and seeing these things being created with the inner/astral eyes in that astral realm of the human imagination. Things are rising from the energetic state that your individual consciousness is existing within and the tendencies/habits of thinking are creating the ‘stream of consciousness’. I.e. long line of images, rising beliefs, self-concept etc. that are held as tendencies within your individual light. Then they are ‘pushing out’ as Neville Goddard put it, into the world and you are seeing various physical scenes, pictures etc. with your outer/physical eyes.
So in this sense, there are two sets of eyes, inner and outer eyes, both looking into a world that are mirrors of each, the outer manifesting from the inner like a reflection that is happening automatically based on the tendencies that are stored in the light underlying the inner, astral world (past tendencies causing things to spontaneously arise) but there is your individual will that can both watch, but also REIGN the inner creation, which then goes on to shine out into the world in a delayed fashion.
So there is a two-way relationship between in inner and outer and it is mediated by your consciousness. You can perceive both worlds. In a way you can control and master both worlds, but it takes choice and discipline. There are two main ways you can do this.
