I decided to write this after starting to experience boring-like spiritual experiences. I understand spirit shouldn't be boring, so I decided I was doing something wrong and I should go about correcting it. I decided to post this because it has helped me heal personally, and restore natural joy and adventure through spirit.
to try and show you how Imagination has been part of my healing process please..... View your heart as the nucleus, the focal point. There are thousands of wires coming off your nucleus. All these wires coming from your heart carry a current. The current is love. You choose where the wires go, and you also choose how much current goes through these wires. Sometimes wires don't quite have enough capacity to carry enough current to where you send it. We construct these 'wires' and sometimes we construct them poorly, and yes they may fail. They may be too brittle, they maybe too old, they may be too small to support the specific current your trying to deliver.
I call this my spiritual house. You see, I wired my house up with poor-dangerous wiring. A lot of this bad wiring must go, becuase it poses a danger to my nucleus (heart). I didn't even realize how poor my 'wiring' is and the potential danger it posed until i tripped over my poor wiring and started a fire. This fire burned my heart... and ouch! It didn't feel so good. So I decided to re-wire my spiritual house. This time i planned on not using 'cheap' easily obtainable material, I also decided to put more time and effort into the wiring.
I view the material i used to construct the wires- as abundant, if not infinite. My imagination is the tool needed to connect the wires from my heart to wherever I choose to distribute the current of love. It's easy for me to see where I want to send my current. It's even easy for me to locate my heart and start building off of it. However it's difficult for me to create a path that connects the two in a righteous way. My problem was- the current wouldn't reach the destination, and I would experience the boringness of not bridging the gap. The best way I can show you how my wiring was created fast and poorly is by this; visualize a box. Any box, hold it firm in your mind, see the details. Remember the details to the box you visualized and then compare it to the one I just visualized...
My box was made of blue stainless-steel. It has a typical diamond pattern everywhere on the metal. The outside of the box has a painting by Pablo Picasso on it. It's about the size of an oven. The inside is padded with soft silky fabrics...... Were our boxes different? This is where I had to use my imagation as a tool to create these fully functional wires.
When I created these poor wires I finally realized what I did. I created them so fast and so nimble they couldn't handle the current I wanted to pass through. It was about the cheapest and fastest-effortless construct available. If you had asked me to visualize a box aside from this post, I would of saw a cardboard box with it's typical folds. Nothing out of the ordianary or nothing special at all... and that's exactly how i poorly wired my spiritual house.
I grabbed the quickest easily obtainable thought with little value, when in reality I could of worked with my imagination to create the most beautiful and valuable thoughts to work off of.

I am blown away by that post! Awesome! I just read it to George and you would chuckle to hear he envisaged a card board box.
Love you,
Sandy

Re: Imagination, potential tool of self-healing
I too saw the cardboard box. Thanks for posting this essay. It is thought provoking and life changing. I need to rewrite my heart as well to overcome a lifetime of shyness. Love is constricted to my immediate family. I need more friends to love!
Conversation is difficult for me as I don't know what to say sometimes. I must overcome this fear. Funny, I can speak professionally to groups of people but I have trouble at the individual level.if I can just remember that everyone is a child of God then they are my family. Lots to learn still!
Namaste

Re: Imagination, potential tool of self-healing
I know what you mean Kurt! I'm thankful you read my post. thanks
i know what you mean, I always must remind myself that everyone's imperfect, we were designed that way. they're here to grow and I'm here to grow and we're one big family. my worst moments are when I don't realize this, which is quite often really, lol.
peace bro
