The Meaning of Life I
Since the beginning of time people have searched for the meaning of life. They have asked the questions we have all asked at one time or another: Why are we here? Where did we come from? Does any part of us continue beyond death? And if so, where does that part go when our bodies die?
This search for the meaning of life has led to all manner of teachings and theories about heaven and hell, purgatory and paradise, but still something seems to be missing. In this series we will attempt to offer our own ideas about why we are all here on the earth plane and where we will go when our bodies become obsolete.
Of course, we could never be presumptuous enough to say that our ideas about the meaning of life are any more or less accurate than others that have been put forward. We offer this series simply as one possible explanation for our existence on this planet and in the universe. If you have strongly-held opinions about the matter which are not in agreement with the ideas in this series then you should feel free to maintain them. The universe is a big place and there is room enough for all attitudes, approaches and beliefs.
That said, we do hope that you find this series to be both insightful and valuable as you progress further along the road of your life…
If you are like most people, you probably view the beginning of your existence as the time when you were born on this earth. If you are a little more thoughtful, you might view the beginning of your existence as the moment in which you were conceived by your parents.
Whilst either of these events could be viewed as the beginning of your most recent earthly existence, neither of them are accurate in describing the beginning of your existence as a spiritual being. The fact is that spirit is eternal. It has no beginning and it has no end. Therefore you as a spirit being have no beginning and no end. You have always existed and you always will exist. This is the meaning of the word ‘eternal’.
This view of your existence throws up much more than the question of where you will go when your physical body expires. It also throws up the question of where you came from before your physical body came into existence.
If you study the scriptural texts of any major religion or philosophy, you will find that – in the majority of cases – one point is agreed upon. That point is that, in the beginning – before anything had manifested itself on the physical plane of existence – all that existed was pure potentiality. This potentiality, from which all things were created, is traditionally referred to as God.
Now most people have broken free from traditional views and come to the conclusion that God is not a white-bearded man sitting on a celestial throne and wielding a big cosmic stick. God is simply energy, and can probably be more accurately described as a Universal Intelligence (which may or may not be related to the so-called Dark Matter which many scientists believe to occupy 96% of the known universe). It knows all because it is all. It is everywhere because no place exists without it. It can do all things because it is all things.
Now if all things came out of that one energy which we call Universal Intelligence, then everything which exists in the universe is a part of that Intelligence. On a quantum level everything that exists is energy. In other words, everything you see around you is a manifestation of the same energy. You are energy. Your cat is energy. Your next-door neighbour is energy. All is energy and nothing is not part of the same energy.
So the question of where you were before you were born physically onto this plane is both simple and complicated at the same time. You were everywhere, because you are energy. And where will you go when your physical body dies? You will go everywhere, because you are energy.
Create a New Self-Image V
In Create a New Self-Image IV we presented Step 2 and Step 3 of our five-step process to recreate your self-image. We will now end the series by presenting Step 4 and Step 5…
Step #4 – Create a New Self Image
Your new self image should be based on the information that you gleaned from your visit to your future self. What inner beliefs enabled your future self to succeed in achieving his or her desire? What had your future self done to succeed? What habits had your future self established?
The answers to these questions should now be adopted as your new self-image. Realise that as of right now, you already are the future self you visited earlier. If you adopt the same beliefs, habits and attitudes, your future will be an exact replica of the one you saw a few moments ago.
Forget past limitations. Forget earlier programming. From this point on you are born again! Your whole life will change, because you have changed at the very core.
Step #5 – You Are The Source
Most people assume that they have to wait for success to come to them. The truth is that success is something which is projected from your own self image. Now that you have a new self-image of success and achievement, you will actively begin to take steps which will ultimately lead to the realisation of your goals and dreams.
Your only task as far as this step of the process is concerned is to meditate on the fact that your future self is being created moment by moment, and that your new self-image will now assist your use of the Law of Attraction in ways you cannot yet imagine. Use it wisely and create good things!
Create a New Self-Image IV
In the last article in this Create a New Self-Image series we presented Step 1 of our five-step process to recreate your self-image. Let us now introduce Step 2 and Step 3…
Step #2 – Future Glimpse
Now watch the globe below you begin to spin faster. Time is passing quickly. As the world turns, imagine that you are looking at the Earth five years from now.
At this point in time, in this alternate universe which you have just created in your mind, you have already succeed in achieving what you currently desire most. You are at the pinnacle of your potential.
Descend slowly towards the earth and visit your future self. Where are you? What are you doing? What do you look like?
Now ask your future self about his or her self-image. What inner beliefs have enabled this future self to succeed in achieving his or her desire? What has your future self done to succeed? What habits has your future self established? What habits has your future self discarded? What limiting beliefs did your future self used to have, but which are now no longer part of his or her self-image?
When you have this information, proceed to…
Step #3 – Erase Your Old Self-Image
Now that you know that your chief desire in life is part of your life purpose, and you have visited your future self, ascend back into space. Do not stop until the world is once again spinning below you.
At this point, realise that all of your current beliefs about who you are and what you are capable or incapable of are based on nothing more than the opinions of other people. Rather than sort through which beliefs are true and which are not, simply decide to ‘erase’ your old self-image. To do this, imagine a blank white sheet on which your new self-image will be created.
Create a New Self-Image III
In the last two parts of this Create a New Self-Image series we established that the self-image can either hinder manifestation or help it, and that if you recreate your self-image you will begin to recreate your entire life. With all of that said, we are now ready to present the Create a New Self-Image process.
Create A New Self-Image Process
This process is divided into five easy steps, all of which will be covered in the next few parts of this series. All but the last step involves a brief meditation on a specific mental image. Follow each step as directed and you will effectively re-program your self-image. For best results this entire five-step process should be repeated often, preferably on a weekly basis for at least five weeks.
Step #1 – Before Birth
Close your eyes and imagine that you have not yet been born. You are an infinite, eternal spiritual being who is about to choose to live as a human for a finite period of time.
Imagine looking at the earth from a ‘gods-eye-view’. The world spins slowly below you – a rotating globe of blue and green.
From this perspective, think about your human desires. What is it that you want to achieve more than anything in your forthcoming lifetime? Career success? Romantic happiness? Spiritual evolution?
Whatever your overwhelming desire is, realise that this desire is not foolish or beyond your reach. On the contrary, the fulfilment of this desire is most probably your life’s purpose, in which case it is imperative that you succeed in achieving it.
Look at the globe of the earth again, and realise that you are going to live as a human in order to achieve this purpose. You are destined to achieve it. You need to achieve it. And most of all, you are already fully equipped to achieve it.
