Re: Why You Don't Create Your Own Reality!
Apparently the highest teaching is that we create reality as unconsciously as we breathe. It's a function of being alive, like gravity is a function of the existence of matter. Much of our creating is unconscious and subconscious. To become conscious creators is our goal.
Radical Responsibility is, as BlueSojourn said, one of the basic precepts. You can't blame anybody for anything because you had a hand in creating it. If you are awake enough, you don't even blame yourself ... you look at your beliefs, actions, and results and change something for a better outcome ... especially as adults. Children have less say in this arrangement, certainly, but it can be said that life circumstances were chosen before birth.
I do not believe in war, death, destruction. I am a creator and believe in life. But, look around, there ARE people who believe in war! If the great river of consciousness on this planet can be turned, those beliefs can change.
The logical mind is a function of the ego structure. The ego was intended to be a bridge between the inner world and the outer world, but in our times the ego has been given too much power. All things not "logical" are denied ... a falsehood on its face which is conveniently ignored. Metaphysics and quantum physics get closer and closer together, although quantum physics is ego/logic driven. To arrive at true quantum physics, ego control must be relinquished, the same as ego must be relinquished in meditation or true meditation does not happen. At base, we are magical creatures with the enormous power of free will. How to use that free will wisely has always been the question!
