Our Awakening Journey - David Ryther
Preface
The reason why the book is titled Our Awakening Journey is because I know it is not only me who is going through a massive spiritual awakening. Many people on planet Earth are experiencing a similar shift in consciousness, and there is evidence of this in major databases. Bookstores, websites, search engines, and social media applications are all exploding with a new and intense focus on ideas which fall under the broad category of spiritual awakening.
Because of this, there are two questions to address:
(1) To what are all these people awakening?
(2) How is the awakening spiritual in nature?
In response to the first question, awakening
really just means becoming aware.
Many people are becoming aware of certain phenomena which are intertwined, and some of the major phenomena include the following:
The ability of a person to create their own reality
The freedom of a person to be the way they want to be
The socialization of individuals into cookie-cutter identities
The programming of belief systems into people from an early age
The massive amount of unnecessary suffering on the planet
A warped sense of priorities among many people
The likelihood of living in a Universe with more than 3 dimensions
The likelihood of living in a simulation
The illusion of solidity
The increasing lack of distinction between that which is digital and that which is physical
(The bottom four phenomena on the list are not given much emphasis in this book. Discussion of a multi-dimensional simulated Universe merits a whole other piece of literature.)
In response to the second question, the awakening which so many people on planet Earth are undergoing is spiritual in nature because all the phenomena to which people are awakening are intertwined by the idea that there exists a non-physical reality that is well worth exploring. Spirituality,
as I use the word, essentially just means the exploration of something which is beyond mind and body.
While there is a noticeable amount of New Age jargon infused into the text, I do not want for the reader to think that the book necessarily has a spiritual agenda. The intention of Our Awakening Journey is to inspire its readers to become aware of just how good life on Earth can be when certain awareness is held and when certain methods are applied. I have addressed within the book a variety of the phenomena to which people are awakening, but the pervading message is about how to create the life you want to live.
Part 1: Personal Reality Creation
Chapter 1: Understanding How Personal Reality Creation Works
Realizing Your Creative Power
You are so powerful that you can create your own reality. However, that means you must actually create it! If you are waiting around for something to fall into your lap, it will never happen. The Universe doesn’t respond to you in the way that a genie responds to you; it doesn’t grant wishes. The Universe is certainly on your side, meaning that it is always conspiring to help you get what you want. However, it does not have a mind of its own. You are a piece of Universal Mind, so when you take an action toward your goal, there are enormous Universal consequences. This is not a bad thing. Consequence
is a word which has negative connotations in the collective consciousness. It is associated with punishment. But all it means to talk about actions having consequences is that reality creation is such a dynamic process that every move you make creates a vibration in the Universe which has powerfully reverberating effects.
It is important to understand that it isn’t possible to not make a move. If one remains stagnant wishing for something to happen and waiting for it to be delivered, then the person is making a move toward resisting their own desires. Since we are living in a dimension of free will, the person has the ability to choose this state of resistance, painful though it will be, and the Universe will allow it to happen because the person has essentially sent a message to the Universe saying, I am going to remain in a state of resistance. I am in lack. I am not going to take action toward my desires.
Ironically, the person is also saying, I wish I wasn’t all of those aforementioned things.
That is why resistance is painful. The person is having a massive conflict within themselves. The person doesn’t realize that their misery is self-created, so they wonder, Why are all these bad things happening to me? Why can’t I have the things that I want?
The reason why is because this person keeps making statements to the Universe that bad things are happening and they can’t have what they want. Your thoughts and words become your truth; that is how powerful your reality-creation abilities are. The fundamental problem is that many individuals do not realize their own power. They believe that reality is something happening to them and that events in their lives are outside of their control. As a result, they sabotage themselves without even realizing they are doing so.
Reality Isn’t Happening to You
To be an effective reality creator, you must stop thinking that reality is something which is happening to you. The Universe is responding to you. When you are constantly in a state of want, saying things such as, I wish I had this
or I hope that will happen,
what you are doing is sending a signal to the Universe that you are in lack. Essentially you are filing a complaint to a Universe which does not care about your complaints. The Universe is neutral, meaning that when you send a message that you are in lack, the Universe says, Okay, you’re the boss. If you are sending me the message that you are in lack, then I will simply agree with you and show you evidence of ways that this is true.
So long as you remain in this state of wishing, wanting, and hoping (which is a mental state of lack), you will continue to attract evidence of ways that you are in lack. If, however, you train yourself to always be in a mental state of abundance, you will only attract more and more evidence of ways that your abundance is valid, and therefore your abundance will only continue to grow. The Universe is waiting for you to step into your power and say I am abundant.
Abundance versus lack is only one example of how your thoughts and words create your reality. The same law applies to powerfulness versus powerlessness, worthiness versus unworthiness, and any other two opposing states of being. In each case, the way by which the person makes a vibrational shift from one state of being to another is by choosing thoughts and words which send the message that what is wanted is already here and is growing to even greater fruition. These thoughts and words come in the form of I am
and I have
rather than I want
and even I will.
The problem with I will
is that it sends the message that you aren’t already choosing to step into a certain state of being. In other words, it sends that message that right now you are not abundant, powerful, or worthy, and therefore you will remain in this unwanted state until you actually take that step. Achieving a desired state of being can also be done by groups of individuals if the group is aiming to create a change in state for all its members. For this type of vibrational shift, the thoughts and words must come in the form of We are
and We have
rather than We want
and We will.
Using the Law of Attraction Correctly
The reason why many individuals are not manifesting with the Law of Attraction is that they have been misled to think that manifesting happens by thought alone. Thought is certainly important in the Law of Attraction process. The individual must develop a clear thought about what it is they are going to manifest, and then focus their attention on that thought throughout the remainder of the process. The remainder of the process, however, is all about action. Once your attention is focused on a clear image of what you want, you must then commit to going in the direction of what you want. The Universe will give you all the help you need along the journey in the form of cues, signs, blessings, coincidences, knowledge, and more. You will receive all this assistance because the Universe reveals its secrets to those who dare to follow their hearts. However, the Universe cannot force an individual to take a step. Remember, this is a dimension of free will, so the individual can choose to spend all day saying, I want, I want, I want,
but never actually acting toward those desires and therefore never manifesting.
It is not only natural, but necessary to have wants. The way that every being in the Universe evolves is by continuously moving toward satisfaction of the next want. The problem is that many individuals have forgotten what they already have, so when they say, I want,
it is coming from a place of lack. In other words, it is coming in the form of a complaint. Here’s the thing – the Universe doesn’t care about your complaints. The Universe functions as a mirror hologram so that you can see what is happening internally within yourself as a reflection in your external world. This means that the Universe is neutral; it is simply responding to your beliefs about it. So, if you send a signal to the Universe that you are in lack, you are only going to attract more lack. The Universe doesn’t respond to what you want, it responds to what you are, and it is YOU who decides what you are. If you send a signal to the Universe that you are abundant, you are going to find evidence of ways in which you are abundant. Once you establish this abundant state of being, you unlock the ability to manifest even more abundance into your life.
The reason why I speak toward manifesting general rather than specific things such as abundance
rather than a sum of money or love
rather than affection from a particular person is that most, if not all of the time, the Universe knows better than you which specific things are most in alignment with your desires. While you won’t sabotage yourself by going in the direction of a specific manifestation, it is important to not become stubborn. Be open-minded to the possibility that along the journey, the idea of what you
