IDENTITY: WHO ARE YOU BEING?

“You are wonderfully and marvelously made in the image and likeness of God!”

“Know Ye not Ye are gods?”

“You are Creators!”

These statements and the wisdom of spiritual texts of our ancestors repeatedly points our identity in the direction of being more than our human species. Scientists have been validating these declarations. Scientists once believed that the brain possessed a predetermined number of brain cells. Now they recognize the brain’s ability to generate new brain cells and they understand the process of neuroplasticity that changes the way the brain functions. Recently, researchers have determined that the DNA carries traumatic events to new generations causing the repetition of experiences. At the same time quantum physicists have made discoveries in the finite realms, biologists have opened a new field called epigenetics, while social scientists and psychologists are validating spiritual wisdom with techniques that support our own experiences of being the Creator in our individual existences.

Our scientists recognize the “experimenter effect,” medical professionals recognize the “placebo effect,” spiritual texts recognize the “prayer effect.” From a variety of perspectives, we are being directed to recognize and embody our role as human creators consciously. In working with people who have studied the Law of Attraction made popular by the movie The Secret and the proponents of manifestation theories, I have found that they get stuck when they have not identified their role in the creation process as the Creator. Not as ego, but as their Highest Self.

One of the most accepted concepts is something greater than ourselves exists. From the beginning of recorded human history, we have stories of experiences we have labeled “magical” because we have not understood their source or origin. We have attempted to label and to recreate these experiences in an effort to have more. Our relationship to the magic of our spiritual energies and that of others elevates our humanity in ways difficult to describe, but necessary to our existences. We strive to identify our Self more and more with the divine energies of spiritual essences, and as we do, our experience of life and others is enriched and expanded.

Is our Highest Self our Creator Self? Is this the identity that beckons us to become more, to express more, to have more in life? Are you identifying your human self with your Highest Self?
