How I interpret what I am experiencing changes based on the view I look at it from. If I look at something from the human perspective, I have such a limited view I can often be overly stimulated by what I see, so I will react strongly both positively and negatively. If I looked at the same thing from a universe perspective, actually I would probably have no reaction. I equate it to knowing or not knowing how a magic trick is done.
This also works for feelings and how I interpret them. From a human perspective I may get a sexy feeling and interpret that as body wants sex, and so go about instigating that one way or another. However if I were to view that same feeling from my higher self, or from the universe...what might I see? What of happiness, excitement and inspiration? There is definitely a chapter in this idea, that I need to explore. The reason is, that when I am at a human perspective when I interpret a feeling, I engage in a different behaviour, and therefore I set in motion a different set of events, from what I would do if I viewed exactly the same thing from a higher perspective. I equate this to 2 dimensional view verses 3 dimensional view, or even 3 verses 4th dimensional.
The decisions I make about things a dependent on the perspective I hold when I am at decision making time. This is a big deal, because of the karmic value of many of the decisions I make. If I make a decision about something because of I am viewing from a human perspective, and that causes a change in my future because it alters my potential, then I may have lost out a great deal. If I am a two dimensional view looking at a left or right turn....can't see around the corner of the next turn, so I have a 50/50 chance of getting it right, but if I get it wrong, and travel down the wrong path, that wrong path will have more intersections, with a 100% probability of going in the wrong direction. If I had a 3 dimensional view, I could see from above and I could see clearly on the service which way to go. If I had a 4th dimensional view, I would know which pathway of the right direction to take when both will end up getting me to the end, but it is unclear what could happen on the way that may change the outcome of the journey. The 3rd dimension equates to higher self or soul view. The 4th dimension equates to universe view.
The is a lot more work to do on this interpretation of the feelings, and other areas. I can see this is a new topic and should be explored thoroughly. There is a totally new potential awaiting me when I figure this one out.
What is it when my human mind is 'tempting me' with ideas of sex or food, or a video etc. What is the underlying truth? It isn't as we might have thought a simple random thought or impulse of the mind. Neither is it habit. It is telling me I need energy, and it is giving me ways to get it. Some of those are self gratification, some are physical but the underlying desire is that I generate a reaction of energy. This is incredibly interesting. Because why is it that I lack energy when I am an energy being? So does this mean that if I take a human perspective that the separation takes me off "the mains" and puts me effectively on "battery" - a finite source that needs to be constantly topped up or recharged. Hence the constant call on energy...aka 'desires' but for which I mis-interpret and therefore seek to manifest these desires which in turn results in a need for more energy, when in fact I was already showing low. Hence I end up having to go into debt to create things.
So I can change my interpretation and focus on 'correct' energy production or reaction, or I can stay plugged in and not delve too long if at all in the separateness of the human perspective.
OK, I accept all this very readily. Where I am at now....I totally get what it is to be at the human perspective. I even get what it is to be at the soul perspective. But I am not sure I am sorted on what it means to be plugged in.
Ok, here is a stab in the dark at it. When I view from the human perspective I see matter = concrete energy - the final by product or evolution of conscious thought's interaction with the universe. Everything appears separate. Everything seems easy to understand, because all things are separate there is a simple process of ownership and bartering to trade in order to gain different experiences. When I view from the soul's perspective I see the impact of actions of one person's behaviour to another, and I see the the energy of that action as real because it has a reaction in another soul. So my focus goes from external hard energy items which I seek and desire from a human perspective to have so that experiences may be had, to seeing the dynamic energy of the experience behind the object, and my desire goes more to the experience bases of things rather than the things. I release how the experience will arrive, and just focus my desire on the experience, whereas at a human perspective I have convinced myself that the object I desire will give me the experience, yet most times I am wrong because of mitigating circumstances which from a human perspective I could never have seen. At a soul perspective I seek to connect with other souls more than I do objects, but I still have expectations from those souls, in just the same way a human perspective has an expectation of an object to deliver a particular quality of experience. When it does not, he is disappointed, and discards the object. In the same way if a soul does not meet your expectations to deliver them the experiences you seek, then you too will discard them. So this brings me to the third point. Being connected back to the source. He there are no expectations. This way there is no way to be disappointed. There are no desires, so there is only abundance. There is nothing to want, because I have all. How to connect? I am pitching the idea, that I need to see the universe IN everything rather than see the individual object, or the individual soul as I do now. If I see these things as separate then how can I interact with them, without giving them something first to make them want to interact with me and do what I am seeking. But, if everything is the universe, and I see from the perspective of the universe, then it is like moving my own arm. There is no cost nor magic in it. There is more to it than this, as this doesn't entirely answer the question of how to connect to the source, but it certainly helps me with my comprehension that there is more to the perspectives I have been holding to date.
