Busyness or “Gnost”?
(Curiously
similar to business!!)
Well, busyness is actually being busy..
Have you ever stopped to understand why you insist on keeping busy?
Better even, notice what is going on in your life when you’re busy.
Being busy is like a new form of competitiveness amongst us, so that we
can be more important. After all, who said that you had to constantly waste
your energy?
As time accelerates, energy – New Energy – accelerates, and we also
think we have to accelerate. The fact is that all of that energy, or most of
it, is totally inefficient, wasted, it serves absolutely no purpose besides
total exhaustion.
Have you noticed that because you are so busy you don’t give yourself
the opportunity to contemplate the beauty of everything around you – you
probably don’t even feel you deserve it.
Besides, when you are too busy, energy has no way to find you and simply
bring you what you want, and you aren’t able to create either – you don’t have
the time or space for it in your life.
·
Do you use it to be part of the flock?
·
In other words, if you’re not busy do you think you’re
not doing what you suppose you should and does that make you feel guilty?
·
It’s automatic – you have never given it any thought.
·
To show you’re better because you’re busier?
·
To have some sort of Power?
·
So that you are given more attention – the victim who
is always busy and no one helps?
·
To receive appreciation, admiration, affection,
gratitude?
·
Not to look at other parts of your life that you don’t
want to recognize?
·
You always have to have more than enough activity in
your life in order to justify your existence?
·
If you remove the state of busyness, are you afraid
that you’ll be left without entertainment?
Well why don’t you just use “Gnost”? “Gnost” is the name for the
creative solution, or “soulution” as I call it, because it comes from Spirit,
your Spirit. It is not dual, nor mental and it cannot be contained or
controlled. It is very simple, fluid, easy and if you call in “Gnost” to take
part in your life every day, everything can become much much simpler. “Gnost” is
the solution, the simplifier of all problems, but by inviting “Gnost” to be in
your life you need to breathe and trust, surrender and not limit, not create
expectations or fixed results. There is no way to go “wrong” where “Gnost” is
concerned. It is not positive or negative, it is the solution, it is yours and
it is available if you invite it. It is very often called the 4th
leg of the stool of human reality – body, mind and soul. It’s like the clay
that connects everything together and which makes you a Body of Consciousness,
not just body, mind and spirit. It is the fusion, the unity, and what really
allows you to enjoy what you thought was Free Will, but was in fact just your
Aspects and their personal agendas deciding your life. The totality of you
doesn’t even have to prove anything, so it doesn’t even need to have Free Will,
it just Is, beyond any doubt or illusion.
.So
what is it that you say to Life: No … or YES?
In order to use “Gnost” (or the creative solution) in
practice, all you need to do is breathe deeply, silencing the mind, as is
explained on page 24, and invite that part of you to participate in your day
with you. You’ll realise that everything becomes simple, not requiring any kind
of effort on your part. It is a continuous and harmonious flow. It is not
possible to analyse it in order to see how it works. It simply is what it is
and it integrates in your day as you allow yourself to let go of the need to
analyse, to seek or to exert an effort. It is as simple as for example “I give
my day to my creative solution”. Or when a challenge arises and you cannot
fathom a solution, breathe and invite “Gnost” to show you the solution. Then
let go of the “problem” and go about your day. When you least expect it the
solution will appear. No, it is no magic, but it sure seems so! What happens is
that the solution to all of the “problems” that appear in your reality is
within your own expanded consciousness, because the so called “problem” always
holds its reverse within itself – in other words, the solution. Nevertheless
this solution mostly resides in a point of your expanded consciousness that the
analytic mind cannot access. It resides in what is called the Higher Mind. This
Higher Mind is yours, but it does not function in the same way as the Lower
Mind, which we use in our daily analysis processes. It is not possible to
access the Higher Mind by thinking, but rather by quietening the Mind.
Furthermore, the Higher Mind does not speak in the way we want it to or when we
want it to, but rather when we allow ourselves to feel its language.
You know what? Much better than trying to explain what
“Gnost” is and how it works, as well as the Higher Mind, the best thing is for
you to try for yourself. Try and use it as has been suggested in this chapter
and see how it works out for you.
And please don’t feel frustrated if you don’t get it
the first time over. The analytic mind makes a lot of noise and has held this
role of problem solver for a long time. Don’t expect it to all of a sudden
switch off. Give yourself time as well. You can’t switch off the analytical
mechanisms instantly and start creating and resolving issues in a whole new
way. It takes a little practice, though the amount of practice it takes will
depend entirely on your own receptivity and the extent to which you allow all
of this to happen per se. One thing I
can guarantee: when you start flowing with “Gnost” you won’t want anything
else!
