if, instead of competing for money, power, and
privilege, we cared more about becoming better
people? |

WE CREATE
OUR OWN REALITY
How we
define ourselves and the world around us forms
our intent, which, in turn, forms our reality. |
|
Our
current world view, and therefore our life experience, is
dominated by three basic core beliefs or definitions of who
we are. They are: “we’re only human, we’re separate”, and
“there’s not enough to go around.” When we stand back and
look at these three core beliefs, we can see how limiting
and divisive they are. They put us in competition with each
other, as opposed to partnership, and promote associated
ideas like “survival of the fittest, dog-eat-dog, and
devil-take-the-hindmost”, predatory concepts we see
dramatized in life, work, and art every day.
Even our
dominant definition of success, which is measured by how
much money, power, and privilege we acquire, is an outgrowth
of these three basic beliefs about who we are and what
reality is. When we insist on believing we’re only human,
that we’re separate, and there’s not enough to go around, we
create a foundation for the fear, suffering, and violence we
see in the world. Complicating matters even further are two
additional negative self-concepts: “we’re basically bad, or
sinful,” and “we can’t trust ourselves.”
To change
the world for the better, we need to redefine how we see
ourselves and the world around us. By paying attention to
our outer
and
inner experiences, which means developing our inner senses
and intuitive abilities, we'll see that we're basically good
and there is much more to who we are than meets the eye.
We will discover we’re both one and separate, and there is
enough to go around if we share the world’s abundant
resources while taking responsibility for co-creating our shared
reality.
