(9) Truth Is Within You

If you could live the truth of your divinity, you would be free from limitation and at one with the abundant creative flow—the river of life. You would be a Master co-creator. But, layers of rigid beliefs and conditioned patterns prevent you from living this state of truth, unity and expansion. The way to clarity and truth is a journey that requires awareness, effort and time.

Before you can shed distortions that leave out more truth, power and love than they let in, you must look beyond the known. Personal discontent and curiosity motivate you to discover what is possible within yourself and the universe. When you find a personal or universal truth on your journey of transformation, you feel free, expansive and powerful. Truth connects you to more of yourself and life, not less. It produces harmony, not discord. You begin to feel full, not empty; connected, not disconnected.

When your awareness slips into the space between your thoughts (not thinking), you enter the space of pure potential. If you have a clear mental slate for even a second, a new insight can be written on it. As you slip into a blank state of mind, Universal Intelligence speaks to you. With an open, objective mind, you go beyond limiting beliefs to greater truths. This process connects you to personal and universal wisdom and eventually restores you to the human/divine perfect pattern.

Become an observing witness:

• Ask one open ended question (not a yes or no question) of Universal Intelligence while in a calm, centered, curious, compassionate state of being; then trust the answer is coming to you.
  
• Remain open to possible insights or solutions while living your normal life for several hours, days, weeks and months; check in from time to time by asking the question and listening for the insight.
  
• Be aware and listen for answers to come to you through your dreams, the media, books, nature or people. Do not strain for answers; just know the answer exists.
  
• Analyze the data that grabs your attention. (If you do not know where or how your body feels truth, develop this response; your body wants to help you recognize truth.) When you receive the right insight or solution, it is in harmony with who you are and feels positive.
