Discovery 1: There is a field of energy that connects all creation.
Discovery 2: This field, plays the role of a constsnt, a bridge, and a mirror for the beliefs within us.
Discovery 3:
The field is nonlocal and holographic. Every part of it is
connected to every other, and each piece mirrors the whole on a smaller
scale.
Discovery 4: We communicate with the field through the language of emotion.
Part of what is new about the 'new age'
is our increased awareness of vibrations. For a very long time our
perception and understanding of vibrations has been significant, but
since the advent of science, we have begun to actually measure and use
vibrations in practical ways. We have learned to categorize vibrations
according to an understanding of the electromagnetic spectrum
and to understand that all energy and even all matter is composed of
vibrations. Increasingly this knowledge is changing our lives in
important ways. A comparison can be made to fire, which has always been
around and can be both good and bad. Not until fire was understood
scientifically did it become available to technology.
In the past couple of decades neuroscience
had made more progress than in all previous decades combined. We have
come a long way in our understanding of how the food we eat is
converted into chemical energy, and into electrical energy that
operates the nervous system, that generates consciousness.
Quite recently we have learned that it is consciousness
and not DNA that switches on stem cells in our bodies which turn into
blood, bone, nerve tissue, or whatever kind of cells are needed. When
we are in the normal, healthy mode of consciousness the growth and
maintenance of the body is automatic. But if we are alarmed, fearful,
or too stressed, our body goes into a protection mode, and our vital
energy resources are diverted into bio-chemicals that enhance our
ability to fight of flee.
So, our perception and interpretation of the conditions around us takes precedence over other biological processes. Our attention and intention is quite literally what we become. And we have learned that the subconscious mind
is enormously more powerful than the conscious mind. It acts like the
software in the computer that processes data and summarizes it into
pictures and language that we can understand. Thus we are
pre-programmed to respond in certain ways which can be summarized as approach and avoidance.
If we have previously been hurt or traumatized, we unconsciously avoid anything associated with that experience. Most of our actions are necessarily governed by our subconscious mind simple because the conscious mind lacks processing power, which explains the difference between what we think and what we do.
This
is a bit more apparent in simpler animals. Often without any apparent
communication their interactions are instinctual. If two dogs come into
the street, right away they seem to know what will go down. On some
level our actions and interactions are instinctual.
A computer
with bad programming yields errors, "garbage in, garbage out." The same
is true of our subconscious programming. To the extent we learn fear,
bigotry, violence, and indifference, then to that extent we will
experience negative circumstances. But the conscious mind can override the subconscious mind. It takes attention and intention. And intention implies an element of emotional commitment.
We
eventually become what we pay attention to. If you dwell on your
highest idea of good, it will grow stronger. That simply means you look
for transcendent possibilities. If you meditate about becoming free of
the ego in favor of being more fully the true Self, then you are
automatically improving wisdom and willpower. And you become less
concerned with the worldly and with the merely sensual; and more with
awe and reverence for the environment and humankind's ultimate nature
and purpose. Learning meditation is like learning music - you use your
mind to practice the basics, then you use focused emotion to render the
music.
The Law of Attraction
simply delivers whatever your emotional vibrations are, either bad or
good. The choice is yours. The internet is a great opportunity to
recreate who you are. What kind of vibes comprise your online persona?
Higher vibrations are connected to the emotions of love and joy. The
lower vibrations are connected to fear and guilt. - Dr. David R. Hawkins
