Introduction

Spiritualityispracticality.Easiersaidthandone—orisit?Practicality often applies to the actual doing or being experience of

somethingratherthantotheoriesorideas.Toooften,manyofusseparateourspiritualpracticefromourdailyroutines.

However, to truly explore the limitless spiritual nature of our reality is toembrace the very fabric of consciousness that creates the totality of allexperience. It is common to compartmentalize our exploration intoconsciousness as a spiritual journey that is separate fromour everyday living.Thisdistinctioncandefeateventhepurposeofrecognizingourselvesasspiritualbeings who are having a human experience. To fully tap into consciousnesspotential,thereisanimplicitneedtorecognizetheutilityofanexperiencewithpractical ramifications in our daily living. In otherwords,we need to ask theimportantquestion,"Howisthisuseful?"

Weareindeedlimitlessbeings,whichmeanswearewithoutend, limits,orboundaries.Yet,inthecourseofourlifeexperiences,wesometimesforgetourinherent ability to access the infinite potential that can be unveiled throughexpanding consciousness. Likewise, often we are confounded as to how tosynthesizeandintegrateourawarenessintopracticalapplicationinoureverydaylives.

Itmayseemasthoughmanyofusspendthemajorityofourlivesstrugglingtowardsomethingorwithsomeone.Actually,wearemostoftenstrugglingwithourselvesbecauseweareunabletogetoutofourownway.Wefindourselvesstymiedbyourconditioning,ourlimitingbeliefs,andourpriorexperiences.Wemayhaveresignedourselvestothenotionthatlifeissomethingthathappenstous. We often feel stuck. Our habitual ways of noticing and experiencingourselves in a particular way often limits us from being able to notice orexperience anything changing in our lives.We vacillate in fear of what mayhappenifwemakethewrongchoices.WeactivelyparticipateintheParadeoftheImaginedTerribles,anticipatingallthewaysourlivesmaygoawry.Wemayseeourselvesasvictimsofcurrentorpastcircumstancesorsubjectourselvestothoseanxiousanticipationsof thedread thatmaycome. In actuality, rarelydoourexperiencesplayoutasourimaginedworsecasescenarios.

Realitymightseemtohappentous,ratherthannoticingthatwearepowerful

co-creators, partnering with universal consciousness to birth our variedexperiences.Inthedesiretoexperiencechangeorfindmoremeaninginlife,weoften lookoutsideourselves for answers.Wemay seekaguru, amentor, or alover to teach us what we think we need to know to be more self-aware ordifferent thanwe are. In doing so,we tend to allowour personal power to besiphoned off to somebody else or something else in hopes that we will beprovidedwithanswers.Often,weput thatotherpersononapedestaland thenfeelletdownbyperceivedhumanfrailtywhentheyfalloff.Forvariousreasons,wearereticenttocommittobecomingourownguru,ourownmentor,orevenourownlover. Ironically,weare theoneswehavebeenwaitingfor.Wemustcommit to ourselves first and foremost, and from there, everything canunfoldfrompurepotentiality.

Life change does not need to be incessantly difficult.We are perhaps toldthatlifeissupposedtobefullofchallengesandcontrastsothatwecanlearnandgrow.Yet,whatwemayfindinsteadis that thesenseofstrugglecreatesmorestruggle.We struggle with our relationships, our careers, our friendships, ourfamilies,ourfinances,ourday-to-dayroutines,andourselves.Sometimespartsof our life appear to go smoothly while other components visibly unravel orstagnate. We may attempt to create safety by compartmentalizing ourexperiences.

"Whycan't Ichange?"weaskourselves."What if Idochangeandstillamnothappyorsatisfied?Whatiswrongwithme?"Evenifwethinkweknowhowto change, we may not recognize how to apply consciousness potential totransformourvariedcircumstances.Wedonotrecognizethatthewaywedoonething is the way we do all things.We feel limited and fragmented and, as aresult,wefeelpowerless.

Considerthis:Whatifnoneofourlimitingthoughtsandbeliefsistrue?Whatiftherealtruthisthatweareneverpowerlessandalwayshaveoptions?Whatifeverythingweneedtoknowtomanifestourdreamsisalreadyavailabletous?What if therewas a physics of transformation that consisted of heart-centeredawareness,andtoaccessit,allwehadtodowastostopnotaccessingit?

Fortunately, through heart-centered awareness, we embrace wisdom byunderstanding that change is our natural state and that we have the power toallowit.Changeflowsfromwithinuswhenweletgooftheneedforthingstochange—andwhenwe let go of the need for things to remain the same. Ourproblems are not really problems at all, although we may currently perceivethem as such.Rather, our problems are opportunities, options, and patterns of

information.Perceivedproblemsareplaceholdersinconsciousness,seekingourattention.Placeholders are patterns of information thatwehave constructed toreflectbacktousapieceofourselvesthatwehaveyet torecognizeinherentlyfromwithin.Throughawarenessofourinfinitepotentialandournaturalabilitytoaccessdifferentpossibilitystatesinanygivenmoment,wecanshiftanything.Possibilitystatesaretransientunfoldingsofourlimitlesspotentialpriortotheiractualizationasexperience,andtheysurroundusineverymoment.Wearethesolution to our problems.We have all the answers to our questions.We havewithinourselvesaninnerstrengthandpower.Wedonotneedtolimitthatpowerorgiveittoothers.Itisourinherentbirthright.Weareuniversalconsciousnessexperiencingitself.Weare the technologyofmiracles.Weareeverythingand,in that recognition, we have all the wisdom and potential we need to liveextraordinarylives.

The physics and geometry of coherence support heart-centeredawareness, and while it is not necessary to understand the science, thisinformation propels us onto a trajectory for experiencing miracles,transformation,andunlimitedpossibilitiesineveryfacetoflife.Thetechnologyof consciousness supported through heart-centered living is the science of themystics and the ancient yogis. It is the science of torsion fields andmiracles.ThisscienceisalsotheartandheartofMatrixEnergetics(ME).

ME is a powerful field of consciousness potential that is accessible toeveryone. Divinely inspired and originally created by Dr. Richard Bartlett in2003,MEfirstbeganasatechniqueforhealing,utilizingthenow-famousTwoPoint for calibrating change. Dr. Bartlett's background as a chiropractor andnaturopathicphysiciansignificantly influenced theoriginalprinciplesandformoftheMEexpression.Asthetechniquetookshapeandincreasedinpopularity,it evolved from a somewhat linear model for influencing health into atechnologyofconsciousness,a field that interactswithall facetsof realityandlife.

The acclaimed Two Point has expanded to become a conversation withuniversal consciousness. It is a dance of awareness between what we arenoticingnowandwhatwehaveyettonoticethatisdifferent.Thisconsciousnesstechnologyhasgrownintoapowerfulmorphicfieldofinformationpotentialthatis easily available and applicable to allwho choose to interactwith it.ME ismuchmorethanatechnique.It isawayofbeingandinteractingwithanever-expansiveuniverseofunconditional love.Fromthis stateofbeing,anything ispossible.

The system and field of ME is a universal language of consciousnesspotential that serves as a vehicle for personal and global transformation ofphysical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual, relational, financial, and self-referentialpatterns.Literally,itcanbeappliedtoanythinganywhereandatanytime. ME embodies the principles that consciousness is omnipresent and iswithinall thatweencounter.Asavibrant, ever-expandingexpressionofgraceandpossibility, thismorphic field is eager for you to explore themagical andamazingpowerabundantlyavailabletoyou,andthroughyou,asyouchoosetonavigatethroughtherealmofconsciousness.Thismorphicfield,whichisbasedonwhatispossibleandnotonwhatisnotpossible,isaplaygroundformiracles.It beckons you to play with and trust in it while inherently and continuouslyteachingyoutoplaywithandtrustinyourself.Everyone—yes,everyone—cando this; the field of ME never discriminates and does not require any priorspiritual,medical,oreducationaltraining.Thefieldgraciouslymeetsanyoneandeveryonepreciselywheretheyareonlife'sjourney.Itinvitesusalltogofurtheranddeeperintoreality-creationthanwemayhavepreviouslyimaginedpossible.Anythingispossible,andthefieldofMEknowsthis,evenifwehaveforgotten.

ME has been taught to tens of thousands of students around theworld. In2008,followingseveralyearsofconsciousnessexplorationandtrainingwiththefounderDr.RichardBartlett,Ijoinedhimonstageashisco-teacher.Wequickly

discovered that anamazing synergy transpiredeach timewe taught a seminar.Dr.Bartlettwasquiteadeptatexpandingstudents'awarenessofconsciousnessand busting their reality boxes. He took them beyond their self-contained,limitingboundaries into the realmof the infinite.Once theyhadaccessed thatexpanded state, I articulated an experiential understanding of the field in apracticalandrelativelylogicalmanner.Weoftenentertainedthequestion,Howis this useful? In otherwords, how can you apply thesemethods of exploringconsciousnesstolifebeyondthisseminar?Howcanyouapplythistoyourbankaccount, toyourchild'sbehavior, toyour self-esteem,or to the trafficonyourmorningcommute?

As the ME teachings evolved through Dr. Bartlett and me, studentssometimes referred to me as Richard's translator. We laugh at this notionbecauseweknowthatwesimultaneouslymakebothsenseandnonsense.Wearemerelybeingourownuniqueexpressionsofthisfieldthat,together,welovesodearly. ME moves through us differently. When we teach ME, there is anexpressed balance within the field of yin and yang, feminine and masculine,spiritual and scientific, esoteric and practical, expansive and foundational,abstract and linear. The field provides a synthesis of information that allowsstudentstointegratetheirownpolaritieswithinthemselves.

Amusingly, in many ways Dr. Bartlett is more linear and logical than heappears, and I am more intuitive and multidimensional than I may appear.Somewhereduringtheseminarexperience,weinvariablyswitchrolessuchthatwe are neither one way nor another exclusively. Rather, we are all of theseaspects,asiseverybody.Weknowinglyholdspaceforourstudentssothattheymayexperienceallaspectsofthefieldandembodyitsinherentcomplexitiesandsimplicities.Itisthisremarkableintegrationoftheintuitiveandthelogical,theculminationofheartandmind,thesynergyofthefeminineandmasculine,andthe embrace of contrasting polarities that enables us all to transcend ourperceivedlimitationsandstepintothetotalityofouressenceasamazingbeings.

Sincemy initial encounterwith the fieldofME in early2006,my lifehastransformed dramatically in many extraordinary and practical ways. In someaspects, the changes have been so pronounced that I don't even recognize thepersonIusedtobe.ThroughthegiftsreflectedtousinthefieldofME,IhaveshedpartsofmethatweremorelikemasksandpersonasandIhavefoundmyintegralbeing.Ihavere-rememberedandbecomemytrueauthenticself.Ihavelearned to embodyheart-centeredawareness.

This powerful, amazing field oftransformationhasconsistentlymirroredbacktomemyownconsciouspotentialandhasprovidedmewith limitlessoptions for creatingand recreatingmy lifeexperiences.

With theunconditional support, love,andgraceof theMEfield, combinedwith personal surrender of self to this potential, we are free to choosetransformation.Weare the reason for the changesweexperience, and theMEfieldsupportsthisrecognitioneverystepoftheway.

MEhas taughtme to trust inmyself as an empowered, significant, uniqueexpression of universal consciousness. It has taught me to let go of myattachmentstolimitations,whichallowslifesituationstochange.Ihavelearnedtoconsistentlymanifestdesiresintoactualexperiences.

Consistently, the field of ME has provided me with strategies forexperiencinglifedifferently—immediately.TheMEfieldhashelpedtohealmeofdisease.TheMEfieldhasalsohelpedmetransformskewedself-perceptionsand a sense of being separate from the all. In this recognition of the inherentconnectivityofoneselftotheall,thereisanaturalresonancecreatedthatenablesustoaccessmiracles.

This option is something ME offers to everyone, including you. The MEfield does not discriminate or selectively choose who can benefit from its

Let reality be reality: How is this statement useful in a book onconsciousness potential, transformation, and change? Certainly, if we wantedrealitytoremainlimitedratherthanunlimited,thenwewouldnotbeinterestedinME,thescienceandartoftransformation,orabookaboutinteractivereality-creation and co-creative change. However, letting reality be reality andembracing the concept of letting go is a fundamental component of thetransformationalprocess.

Truly,whatisreality?Wecanneverreallyknowdefinitivelywhatitis.Wecanonlyeverknowreality throughhowweperceive it.Our lensofawarenessprovides us with a mechanism of noticing, perceiving, and experiencing thatwhichwecallreality.

Whenresistancetowhatismetamorphosesintoacceptance,thereisanaturallettinggoofanynegativechargethatkeepstheperspectiveofourrealitylockedintothepolarityanddualityofwhatweareattemptingtodischargeortranscend.In other words, a state of allowance and acceptance releases the unwantedcharge against anything. A state of neutrality opens a portal for universalconsciousness, as an expression of us, to notice itself as being new-to-reality(neutrality).

Neutralityisaportal-to-unity.Neutralityallowsforus to transcendtheperceivedlimitationsofdualityby

acceptingdualityasanextensionofunity.Neutrality is thespace-between-the-spaceofwantingsomethingtochangeandnoticingthatithasnotyetchanged.Through awareness of unity and our connection to the all, we become activeparticipants and co-creators with universal consciousness.

That which we fight against or resist keeps us bound to its polarities andengagedinaperceivedexternalwarwithout,whichcreatesawarwithin.Whenwearefocusedagainstsomethingorsomeone,wearestillresonatingwithit.It'sapolarityconundrum.

An initial step toward changing the gauge of perceived experience is toreleasetheresonanceofbeinginoppositiontoanything.Letitbe.Lettingitbeactually gives us leverage for things to change. When we are in a state ofneutrality (new-to-our-reality), there is no charge on the positive or negativepolarity.There is also no judgment. It just is in its entirety.Both sides of thepolarity,positiveandnegative,are included.In thespacebetweenpositiveandnegativeisneutral,andthatiswherethingswillmostreadilychange.Neutralityisall-inclusive.Inclusivenessisallowing,andallowanceisthemastercurrencyofchange.

Letting go or surrendering to the perceived need for things to change isdifferentthangivingup.Surrenderingtowhatseeminglyisprovidesforalettinggo intowhat seemingly is not. There is no difference.Consciousness includeseverything,andtherefore,whatisnot isnotdistinctandseparatefromwhatis.They exist together.They are the same.They are one.Giving up differs from

letting go;whenwe give up,we are giving into something that appears to bewhatwedonotwant.Wethencontinuetoresonatewiththatsomething,withasense of futility, so thatwhat seems to lie beyond that something is excludedfromawareness.Therefore,anythingusefulthatisexcludedfromourawarenesscreatesresistancetoflow.

Lettinggoorsurrenderingisallowing,andallowingprovidesforareturntoflow. When we allow for change, which is our natural essence, then changebecomes an allowance for unlimited potential. Letting go is a liberation ofattachmentstowhatisandwhatseeminglyisnot.Lettinggoisanembraceoftheall-inclusive,which iseverything. Inclusion is freedomthathasnoopposite. Itsimply is and is not, together, as one.When everything is allowed, embraced,andincluded,thereisnoneedtohangontoanything.

Amazingly, theuniverseknows thedifferencebetween truly lettinggoandpretendingtoletgo.Theformersays,"Ireleasethisdesireintotheallandknowitwillbereturnedtomeasmanifestationandexperience."Pretendingsendsthemessage,"Iwantthis,andIknowIamsupposedtoletgotoallowittounfold,but—justincase—IwillhangontothislittlepartherewhileIpretendtotrust."Fullylettinggoorsurrenderingtriggersthephysicsofmomentumandallowsfortheripplesofcreationtoreverberateinreturn.

Fullyletgointotheallandtrust thatyourheartfeltdesireswillmanifestasexperience.ConsiderthesewordsofAnaïsNin:"Lifeisaprocessofbecoming,a combinationof stateswehave to go through.Wherepeople fail is that theywishtoelectastateandremaininit.Thisisakindofdeath."FreedomtoChoose

Froman all-inclusive space,wemay thenbegin tomakepersonal choices.Choice is our inherent ability to elect where we resonate in our awareness.Whereweresonatecreatesourexperience.So,whilewemaybeallowingallofreality to be reality, it does not necessarily mean that we are experiencingeverything.Untilweallowforalltobeincluded,wedonottrulyhaveachoice.Wedon'treallyhavecompletefreedomortheabilitytoperceiveorevendiscernour resonance if we are shackled by what we are clinging to, resisting, orpushingupagainstforsomethingtotransform.

Choose.Notice.Letgo.Allow.Trust.Choose.PracticalPlay

Choose. The universe is collaborating with us to be inspired by what wedesire. The desires that well up from the field of the heart are powerful

indicatorsormapstohelpuschoosewisely.Ourchoicesarealwaysextensionsof universal consciousness. From the all-inclusive vantage of universalconsciousness, choices are neither inherently positive nor inherently negative.Justchoose.

Notice.Noticewhatisdifferent,notwhatisthesame.Whydoesitseemsodifficultforustoexperiencechange?Perhapsthekey

—GeorgeMillerWhat is universal consciousness?Well, beforewe attempt to define it,we

must acknowledge that any description of universal consciousness ismerely adescription of it, and is not actually it. As it is with defining a banana, weunderstandthatthedescriptionisnotanactualbanana.Thedescriptionisonlyasignpost pointing to the banana. Defining universal consciousness, likedescribingabanana,providesonlyaninterpretationofhowweperceive,feel,orknow it throughourpersonal experience.Similarly, an attempt todescribe thescienceofbananaorofuniversalconsciousness,orthestructuralelementsthatgive them both form and substance, still would not be banana or universalconsciousness. Universal consciousness is the wisdom above and beyond thebanana, thebanana itself, and everything that is experienced in relation to thebanana. Universal consciousness is also everything else that exists, has everexisted,andmayeverexist.

Universalconsciousnessisthemechanismforeverythingandis—everything.The essence of universal consciousness has been described as spirit, light,

love,nature,torsion,andether.Ithasalsobeendescribedasus.Inotherwords,we are universal consciousness.We don't experience universal consciousness,rather,universalconsciousnessis,anditexperiencesitselfthroughus.

Ourindividualperceptionofthatwhichisuniversalconsciousnesscanbeaprismoraprison,dependinguponourflexibilityorresistancetoflow.

So,whatisuniversalconsciousness,really?Perhapsitisn'twhatwethinkitis.Infact, itmayevenexistapartfromourthinking.Merriam-Websterdefinesconsciousness as "the quality or state of being aware, especially of somethingwithinoneself.Thestateorfactofbeingconsciousofanexternalobject,state,

orfact."Therefore,thatwhichisconscioushasperspectivewhenobservingwhatitperceives.

However, the consciousness I am referring to, universal consciousness, isimpersonalinnatureandspansfarbeyondindividualawareness,space-time,andbeyondanythingwemaythinkweknowdefinitively.Iamreferringtouniversalconsciousness as the all. In its entirety, it is void of perspective and identitybecause it includes all vantage points as part of itself. Anything we sayconsciousnessiswillmerelybeadescriptionorasignpostforwhatitactuallyis.Defining an individual's perspective of consciousness does not defineconsciousness, either. It only describesa perspective of consciousness. In thisbookIamutilizingparticular languageanddefinitions forconsciousness inanattempt to invite everyone to the same page.Nonetheless, this does notmeanthateveryonemusthavethesameperspectiveaboutsomethingwithaninherentnature that is undifferentiated and limitless.Any and all definitions serve as asingle point of reference calledperspective, even if that perspective proclaimsthatthereareinfinitepointsofpointlessnesstowhatisbeingdefined.

It is not important that we are all on the same page with respect toconsciousness, or to anyperspectiveofferedhere.Truth is ultimately adeeplypersonal experience, and this book is not about consensual truth.This book isabout understanding your own truth for yourself regarding the nature of yourownrealityasalimitlessbeing.Inthisbook,wewilljourneytogethertoexploreconsciousness,thenatureofreality,andlivingourinfinitepotential.

We want to continuously challenge our notions about reality, particularlythosethatarelimitinginnature,sothatwecanconsciouslyandinteractivelyre-createtheexperienceofourselvesaslimitlessbeings.

As defined in this book, universal consciousness includes everything andexcludes nothing. It is my experience that everything comes from universalconsciousness.

Whetherweareesoteric, scientific,united,ordividedaboutwhatuniversalconsciousness actually is, our approach to defining it appears to make littledifference to universal consciousness itself. That which is everything and isimpersonalinnaturedoesnotseemtocarewhatwecallitorhowwedescribeit.Consciousnessitselfdoesnotcomeacrossasjudgmentalordiscriminatoryabout

consciousness and light. Even our bodies appear to be composed of light.Physicists havenoted that our bodies aremadeof biophotons, andbiophotonsarelight.Ithasbeenscientificallyproventhateverycellinthebodyemitsmorethan 100,000 light impulses, or photons, per second. These light emissions,foundinall livingthings,arecalledbiophotonsandhavebeenfoundtobe thedrivingmechanismbehindallbiochemicalreactions.(1)

The Russian embryologist Alexander Gurwitsch did initial researchestablishingtheroleoflightinlivingprocesses.In1923,Gurwitschestablishedastronghypothesis thateverylivingcellemits light.Inthe1970s, theworkofGermanscientistFritzPoppexpandedfurtheruponbiophotontheory,providingample experimental evidence.FritzPoppdiscovered thatDNAboth emits andabsorbsbiophotonsand that thehealthof livingcreaturescouldbedeterminedbythesubtleenergyofthebiophotonstheyemit.Light, Information,andTorsion in theSynchronizedUniverse

AccordingtoMIT-andPrinceton-educatedphysicistDr.ClaudeSwansoninhisSynchronizedUniversemodel:

the new sciences of biophotons and torsion fields provide a bridgebetweentwoviewsoflife:theoldtwentiethcenturyviewofanorganism

It creates and interacts with torsion fields whichextendbeyondthebody,andcreatetheaura....TheabilityofintentionandvisualizationtoalterDNAtranscription,changingcellbiology,isoneof the modern breakthroughs which help us understand the closeconnectionbetweenconsciousnessandbiophotons.(3)

Their most important conclusion is that this torsion force isexactlythesameassubtleenergy.(4)

Simply stated, the body is made of light, also known as biophotons.Biophotons create a hologram informing the body to grow and heal. Thishologram of light creates torsion fields (spin) and also transmits and receivesinformationfromresonanttorsionfields(spin)aroundthebody.

Furthermore, extensive Russian research has shown that torsion fields,presumedtobeeverywhereinthefabricoftheuniverse,areabletotransmitandreceiveinformation.Whatismore,thecommunicationbetweentorsionfieldsisnotlimitedbytimeandspace.

Torsion fields appear to be a form of subtle energy that is present

Light as a source of life may be that which is the essence of universalconsciousness. Remarkably, according to TerrenceMcKenna, photons of lightapparentlyhavenoantiparticles.(6)

Ifuniversalconsciousnessweretohaveadesireorapurpose,thenperhapsitwould be to create. Universal consciousness appears to create as a way ofbecoming more aware of itself. In the same way that we each have personalperspective, universal consciousness appears to create to experience itselfthroughvariousperspectives,expressions,reflections,anddistinctions.Itoccurstomethatconsciousnesssees itself inall itscreationsandisnotseparatefromthem.

If this is true, then all distinctions extend from, and are still connected to,universal consciousness, which includes all of us. The individual expressionsthatuniversalconsciousnessmakesthroughusbecomeoursole(soul)signature.It is what makes us unique. Individual (in-divide-u-all) and individuality (in-divine-duality) refer toouruniqueexperienceofourselves,notasseparateandapartfromuniversalconsciousnessbutasdirectextensionsofit.WhatIsConsciousnessPotential?

As referenced in this book, universal consciousness creates fromunlimitedpotential. Consciousness potential is nothing. It can be described as nothingbecauseithasnotyetexpresseditselfassomething.Consciousnesspotential isuniversal consciousness before consciousness creates, actualizes, and/orexperiences.Consciousnesspotential is voidof distinctionsorboundaries, andtherefore, italsohasno limitations.Undifferentiatedconsciousnesspotential islimitless,formless,weightless,timeless,spaceless,thoughtless,andtotallyfree.

Referringtotheallasnothing,asconsciousnesspotential,actuallyfacilitatesaccesstoit.Allweneedtodoisbecomeawareofconsciousnesspotential.Buthow dowe become aware of something that has nothing to be aware of?Webeginbylettinggoofoursenseofbeingseparate.Awarenessfromanexpandedperspective, that is inclusive of everything as consciousness, and nothing asconsciousnesspotential, allows for that potential to express itselfmore readilythroughus.

Consciousness potential is also that which is unconditional love.Unconditional love is the cohesive force that unifiesall, a thread thatweavesthrough the fabric of the universe. It is not "I love you." It is Love IS.Unconditional love is not love as we humans have become accustomed to it,withallitsparameters,expectations,andlimitations.Consciousnesspotentialasunconditionalloveisimpersonalinnature.Itislovevoidofallconditions.

Consciousnesspotentialisloveisasapreconditionedessence;itislovethatexistsregardlessofhumanrelations,emotions,perceptions,orforms.

As a concept, love is often misunderstood, and therein lies the potentialdifficulty in accepting that unconditional love is everything and nothing. Ourlimited concepts of love have been personified and deeply distorted intoconditioned states. The love that creates all, heals all, and transforms all isactuallydeeplyimpersonalandwithoutconditions.

Certainlysomeexpressionsoflovearecarrierwavesfortransformationandhealing, but those expressions are not what truly heal. Those expressionsreconnectustothestatelesspotentialofcondition-lesslove.Theyreflectbacktousournaturalessenceasconsciousnesspotential.Itisnotthathumanloveheals,per se, but that love itself reflects back to us thewholeness that is inherentlywithineachandeveryoneofus.

Expressions of unconditional love, no longer unconditioned by virtue ofbeing conditioned into an expression, are powerful, coherent placeholders forour potential return to wholeness and connection with source as universalconsciousness. Compassion, empathy, laughter, and friendship, expressed assupportive gestures, a kind word, or a gentle caress are just a few of manymirrored reflections that serve tonurtureourconsciousnesspotentialback intoflow, aswell-being.Unconditional love as consciousness potential iswhatweare inour trueessence.Therefore,anexpressionof love fromanotheror fromoneself is like receiving a homeopathic remedy for awareness.We remember,we resonatewith,we receive,we allow, andwe return to our natural state ofwholeness,whichistheninherentlyreflectedaswellness.

Wellness,orwell-being,isanaturalflowthatisexpressedthroughabodyofinformation (in-form-in-action) that serves as a vehicle for universalconsciousness.Thus,wellness isaconditionedexpressionofconsciousness,oflove, flowing through form from its original condition-less state. Ultimately,well-beingisconsciousnesspotentialexpressingitselfasloveandlightthroughus.

Althoughwemay be experiencing conditions that seem far removed fromour true essence of love expressed as light, we are much more than ourconditions. We are much more than our problems. We are much more thananythingwearechoosingornotchoosingtoexperienceinanymomentorovertime.Weareuniversalconsciousnessandunlimitedpotential.Thoughwemayhavemovedourawarenessawayfromnoticing thisaspartofourexperiences,we always have the inherent ability to return to this knowingness. With thisrecognition, we can recondition our experiences and limitlessly create newexperiences. We can tap into our consciousness potential and open up toknowing and recognizing ourselves as more than what we have previouslyexperienced.Synchronicity

Ifyouwere toexperienceyourselfasmore thanyourpersonalexperiences,your beliefs, your thoughts, andyour conditioning—and if youwere to noticethat you are connected to consciousness potential—whatmight you notice? Ifyou knew how this expansion in awarenessmight change your experience ofyourselfandtheexperiencesofothers,whatmightyounotice?

WhatoccurstomewhenIaskthisquestionisanawarenessofsynchronicityineverything.Thephenomenaofsynchronicitywasconceptualizedandcoinedby Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung in the 1920s. He used the termsynchronicity to describe the experience of two or more seemingly unrelatedeventsbeingobservedashappeningtogetherinameaningfulmanner.(7)

These interactions create connections or resonances with the informationcontainedinmorphicfields.Whatunfoldsfromtheinformationwithinmorphicfields of consciousness is, in turn, expressed through all of us as energy andexperience.

Wecangainindepthunderstandingofthescienceofmorphicfieldresonanceby referring to the extensive pioneering work of biologist Rupert Sheldrake,Ph.D.His groundbreaking scientific theory onmorphic fields has transformedhowweunderstandconsciousness,biology,andbehavior.Practicallyspeaking,morphic field resonance may also further explain the nature of change andtransformation.

AccordingtoDr.Sheldrake:

Thewordmorphic field comes from theGreekmorphe,meaning form.Morphicfieldsorganizetheform,structureandpatternedinteractionsofsystemsundertheirinfluence....

All self-organizing systems are wholesmade up of parts, which are inturnlower-levelwholesthemselves—suchasorganellesincells,cellsintissues, tissues in organs, organs in organisms, organisms in socialgroups. At each level, the morphic field gives each whole itscharacteristicproperties,andcoordinatestheconstituentparts.

The fields responsible for the development and maintenance of bodilyform inplants and animals are calledmorphogenetic fields. In animals,the organization of behavior andmental activity depends on behavioralandmentalfields.Theorganizationofsocietiesandculturesdependsonsocialandculturalfields.Allthesekindsoforganizingfieldsaremorphicfields.(10)

Consider that the experience of your personal reality will vary immenselydepending upon your resonance with social, cultural, psychological, and evenbiologicalmorphic fields. Socialmorphic fields overlapwith culturalmorphicfields that can, in turn, influence psychological and biologicalmorphic fields,andviceversa.(11)

AccordingtoDr.Sheldrake,amorphicfieldis"afieldwithinandaroundamorphicunit."Inturn,amorphicfieldorganizesamorphicunit'scharacteristicstructureandpatternofactivity.Hecontinues:

Morphicfieldsunderlietheformandbehaviorofholonsormorphicunitsat all levels of complexity. The term morphic field includesmorphogenetic, behavioral, social, cultural, and mental fields. Morphicfields are shaped and stabilized by morphic resonance from previoussimilar morphic units, which were under the influence of fields of thesamekind.(12)

MorphicFieldsofHabit

Through repetition, the patterns morphic fields organize become increasinglyprobable, increasinglyhabitual.Theforcethat thesefieldsexert is theforceofhabit.

—RupertSheldrake,Ph.D.

"Theforce that these(morphic) fieldsexert,"statesSheldrake,"is theforce

of habit." (13)Hmmm?Andwe know that habits can be broken, changed, ortransformed through awareness.Andwe know thatnewhabits can be formedwithfinesseandfocusedintent.

Practically speaking, morphic fields serve as containers for consciousness;theyholdpatternedinformationthatgivesshapetoourexperiences.Ifmorphicfields develop and evolve through similarity, repetition, and resonance, thenconsiderthatwecanchangeourresonancewithmorphicfieldsinthesamewaythat we change our habits. We can choose a different focus and change theprogrammedbehavior.Throughourintentionandattention,withouttension,wecan affect our resonance with these fields of information that affect ourexperience.HabituatedConsciousnessInFormsUs

Considertheglobalmorphicfieldoffear.Inmanyaspectsthisfieldoffearisbasedonthefearofdeath.Notsurprisingly,mostfearsactuallystemfromacorefearofdeath,whichisamorphicfielduntoitself.Withabitofawareness,itiseasy to observe that the morphic fields of religion and politics have beenreinforcedandperpetuatedwithandthroughthefearofdeathfield.

The global morphic field of fear may have started long, long ago with aholon or a morphic unit of thought. Perhaps fear was simply an inherent,perceivedthreattosurvival.Afterall,ahungrysaber-toothedtigerusedtobearealistic threat to survival. When challenged by a tiger, the fear of deathresonated,asdidtheprimalinstinct toeitherrunfromorslaythetiger.Inthissense,thefearwasvalidandaperceivedmatterofsurvival,notonlyofself,butof others, as well.When we perceive a threat to life, our autonomic nervoussystemtakesover.Wearesuper-revvedwithadrenalineandsuperchargedwithachemicalrushofenergythatenablesustorespondwithamazingspeed,clarity,andprecision.

Whenchallengedbythepresenceofatiger, imagineforamomentthatourancestors chose to run from the beast and, thankfully, survived. The gallantsurvivorswould have sharedwith their tribal community the idea of this veryreal threat, which was based on a very real experience, and wisely advisedeveryoneoftheoptimalknownsurvivaloptions,whichweretoeitherrunfrom

tigersorslaytigers.Imaginethat,astimewenton,othertribalmembersencounteredtigerswhile

goingabouttheirdailyrituals.Sensingfear,superchargedwithadrenaline,andrecalling the two optimal known survival options previously shared with thecommunity,thethreatenedmenchosetokillthetiger.Heroically,theyreturnedtothevillageandglorifiedtheirhuntingstoriesbyinsertingbitsofcreativeandexaggerateddetailstoimpresstheladies.

Fear was now being further propagated throughout the community inconversational gossip regarding anything that might threaten survival. Inaddition, those individuals who had encountered a tiger decided to appointthemselvestoencodeandcreaterulesfortherestofthetribetokeepeveryonesafe.With their newly self-appointed leadership roles intact, the great leadersagain sensed, physiologically and energetically, a pumping and surging ofadrenaline.Morphicunits, as thoughtsand feelingsofpower,wereembeddedintothegrowingmorphicfieldoffear.Itiseasytoseehowthemorphicfieldofpowerstructurewasbirthedandenabledtoprotectthecommunitybyexploitingthecommunity'svulnerabilitiesandfears.Thispowerstructure,inturn,createdyetanothermorphicfield,perceivedsafety.

As communal members ourselves, we are sometimes grateful for theprogrammedrulesthatencodeforoptimalandevolvingoptions.Asouroptionshaveevolved,wenotonlycanrunfromtigersandslaytigers,butnowwealsocanhidefromtigers.Wecanalsolistentoourfearlessnewlyappointedleadersandentrustour survival to thechosenoneswhoknowbecause theyhavebothencounteredandsurvivedathreatreferredtoastigers.

It was not abnormal and is not abnormal for tribal members to becomeincreasingly fearful given the limited available choices for tiger-survival.Through such debilitating fear, people become entirely dependent upon thedirectivesofcommunityleaders.Thisishowrelinquishingthepersonalpowerofchoicetoourleadersevolves.Thisisoftenwhywe,astribalmembers,succumbanddoexactlyaswearetold.

This is an example of how the morphic resonance of fear increases,perpetuates, and evolves. Fear is literally in the air. In response to the fear ofdeath,thefearofsurviving,and/orthefearoffearitself,womenandchildreninmanyculturesarenolongerabletoroamfreelybecausetheyareperceivedtobe

Literallyandmetaphorically, thereal threat isnot the tigers,but thevillageontheothersideofthemountain.Itcouldbethattheadjacentvillage'stee-peesare getting too close to our river, which is our tribe's main source of water.Peopleperceivethisterritorialmovementasathreatandautomaticallyassociateit with the tiger. Leaders encourage this fear-based perception. Communalresonancewiththedeeplyengrainedhabittorunfromthetigerortokillthetigerkicks in.Hiding is not an option because communal resources are threatened.Unwilling to uproot an entire village in search of new land, tribal memberschoose the perceived optimal option in response to the perceived fear. Theoption chosen is to kill the tiger, except this time the killing is a war thatdecimates the opponent's entire community. We conquer the tigers or theperceived threats rather than the fear itself.

Memetics is another emerging scientific paradigm that provides insight onhowmuchofourbehavior,insteadofbeingindividuallydriven,istheproductofviral thought replication.Memetics is a theoretical and empirical science thatstudiesthereplication,spread,andevolutionofmemes.(14)

A meme is an information pattern in an individual's memory that can becopiedtoanotherindividual'smemory.(15)

ThestudyofmemesbeganwithevolutionarybiologistRichardDawkins.Hispioneeringworkisdetailedinhis1976book,TheSelfishGene.

AccordingtoDr.Dawkins:

Examples of memes are tunes, ideas, catch phrases, clothes fashions,ways of making pots or of building arches. Just as genes propagatethemselvesinthegenepoolbyleapingfrombodytobodyviaspermsoreggs,somemespropagatethemselvesinthememepoolbyleapingfrombrain to brain via a process, which, in the broad sense, can be calledimitation.Ifascientisthears,orreadsabout,agoodidea,hepassesitonto his colleagues and students. He mentions it in his articles and hislectures. If the idea catches on, it can be said to propagate itself,spreadingfrombraintobrain.(16)

RichardBrodieexpandedsignificantlyuponDawkins'sworkandthescienceofmemeticsinhisbookVirusoftheMind.Brodiedefinesamemeas"aunitofinformationinamindwhoseexistenceinfluenceseventssuchthatmorecopiesof itself get created in other minds." He looks at memes in terms of their"catchiness"anddefinestheeffectivenessofamemebasedonhowquicklythethoughtisreplicated.(17)

Inaverylogicalfashion,Brodieidentifiesvariouscategoriesofmemesthatfunction likeviruses in theDNAofourvariouscultures.According toBrodie,memesseemtopersistnotbecauseoftheirtruth,butbecauseofourindividualreceptivitytohostingtheminourminds.

In my experience, memes are not self-sustaining thought forms that liedormant in morphic fields as information potential. Rather, memes are activethought-formvirusesthatthrivebyvirtueofresidingwithinthemindofthehost.

Memesinourmindsarenotinherentlydetrimental.Manymemesareuseful.Theyenableustonavigateintheworldwithsomesemblanceoforder.

This book defines a meme's effectiveness not in terms of its replicatingability, but in terms of how it assists us practically in living our unlimitedpotential.Thus,amemewillbedefinedasbeingeitherusefuland/orexpansive,ornotusefuland/orlimiting.

According to Brodie, (18) three predominant types of memes inform ourexperience:•Distinctionmemes

•Strategymemes•AssociationmemesDistinctionmemesDistinction memes are arbitrary delineations made by labeling and

categorizingreality.ThestateofCaliforniaisanexampleofadistinctionmeme.Knowingyour locationprovidesaformofassistancefornavigation.While thememeofCalifornia isnotultimately true, it is aconsistentlyheldconstructofconsciousness that shapes our behaviors and our experiences. Subsets ofdistinctionmemesareassociatedwithCalifornia,aswell.CaliforniahasamemeofeconomicscalledCaliforniasalestax,amemeoflanguagecalledEnglish,andevenamemecalledHollywoodthathasamultitudeofadditional,correspondingmemes. Change location to another meme, like Mexico, and a completelydifferentsetofmemeswillcommandyourexperience,including,butnotlimitedto, country memes, economic memes, cultural memes, social memes, andlinguisticmemes.(19)

Universal consciousness is all-inclusive and void of distinctions in itsundifferentiated nature. Universal consciousness does not make a distinctionbetweenCalifornia,Washington,Mexico,Europe,andEgypt,oranywhereelse,for thatmatter. These distinctionmemes are arbitrary lines drawn in the sandwhich,whenfollowed,commandaspecificsetofexperienceswithinaparticularreality.Nomatterwhereyoudrawthelineinthesand,itisallstillsand.

StrategymemesStrategymemes,accordingtoBrodie,encodeforbeliefsrelatingtocauseand

Examples of useful strategy memes include driving a car, cooking, andearning a college degree.Within each respective experience, various steps areemployed to accomplish desired objectives. Strategy memes are extremelyuseful for organizing consciousness in apredictablemanner and in away thatfacilitatesaccomplishmentofspecificgoals.

Within the perceived gift of disease lies theopportunity todismantle amalignant strategymemeanddevelop anew,moreusefulapproachtogrowthandauthenticexpression.Changeyourstrategy,andyouchangethecourseofyourlife.

Perhapsanimportantdifferencebetweenausefulstrategymemeandonethatisnotuseful isourdegreeofself-identificationwith it.Forexample,whenweare driving a car,we know thatwe are not the strategymeme;we are simplyusingavehicletotransportusfromonelocationtoanother.However,whenwepersonalizeastrategymemetotheextentthatweidentifystronglywithit,seeingitasapartofourperceivedbeing,thenthememe'sresonantexpressioncanlimitus.

Perhaps this non-usefulstrategymemewasimplementedtoavoidfutureembarrassmentorrejection.Adistinctionmemeisfirstcreatedbyapersonwhostates,"Iamshy."Thestrategy

MemesofsecondarygainBe aware of secondary gain.Oftenwithin strategymemes and association

memes are secondary gainswithwhichwe are resonating at the conscious or,morelikely,unconsciouslevel.Wemayfindthatcontinuingtorunaprograminacertainwayenablesustoperceivablygainsomethinginexchange.

During a seminar, a woman approached me and asked if heart-centeredawarenesswould"takecare"ofallherphysicalproblems.Essentially,Irepliedthatrealityisasflexibleandmalleableasourconsciousnessallowsittobe.

Shewasrunningastrategymemetoremaininpain,anditwassupportedbyanassociationmemethatsaid,"Beinginpainprovidesmonetarygain."Herpainwasliterallyapayin(pa-in)forthepotentialpayoutorrewardthatseemedtoogoodtogiveup.

Of course, secondary gain is usually not as blatant as thisexample.

I have found thatwhen the secondary gain is removed from a pattern, thepattern naturally falls away. When we don't pa-in attention to the secondarygain, or we remove it or replace it with an equally rewardingmeme, the oldpattern has a chance to change. Pay attention to secondary gains. Payingattention canmake the difference between being run by a strategymeme andrunningastrategyofyourownthatisassociatedwithchange.

Physicists discoveredthat communication between electrons traveled faster than the speed of light,regardlessofthedistancetraveled.TheoreticalphysicistDavidBohmconcludedthat this instant communication was possible because the electrons were notseparate,atall.(24)Rather,theyonlyappearedtobeseparate.

Bohm's theory postulates that "at a deeper level of reality all things in theuniverse are infinitely interconnected . . . reality is a sort of superhologram inwhichthepast,present,andfutureallexistsimultaneously."(25)

Holographically,wearenotseparate,nordothesumofourpartsequalourwhole. To be precise, each of our parts contains all the information that isencoded in the totality of our being. Therefore, when we change theconfiguration of a knee or a hip, the change connects us to all the patterns oflight and information that resonate in our personal field,which comprises thetotality of our experience of reality. In other words nothing happens in avacuum.Changeonething,andeverythingcanchange.

Connectingourpersonal fieldswith theholographic templatesofunlimitedpotentialembeddedincertainmorphicfieldscreatestransformativeexperiencesthatcontinuewithoutlimitation.

MEisbasedonwhatispossible,asopposedtowhatisnotpossible.Aswehavepreviously learned,morphic fields appear to functionbasedonmemoriesandhabits.AsdefinedbyDr.Sheldrake,morphic fields functionbasedon theinformation that is encoded within the individual holons or morphic units

encodedinthefield,thusgivingrisetoformandexperience.(26)It is morphic field resonance that organizes and commands much of our

experience in our personal fields. When we tap into a field of miracles andtransformation,thenmiraclesastransformationaremorelikelytooccur.

AccordingtoRupertSheldrake,

if it is easier to learn things that many people have learned before,educationalmethodsthatenhancetheprocessofmorphicresonancecouldleadtoacceleratedlearningandmoreeffectiveeducationalmethods.(27)

As such, there are some very practical applications for learning andunlearning that can be facilitated by leveraging the awarenesswithinmorphicfields.

Knowing thatmorphic fields functionbasedonmemory, theconsciousnesstechnology known asMEwas intentionally built as amorphic field so that itwould facilitate easy learning for all who chose to connect with it. Tens ofthousandsofstudentsandpractitionershavetappedintothemorphicfieldofMEinthepastdecade,whichhasacceleratedthelearningprocess.Peopleareabletoquickly access this method of interactive reality-creation because theinformationinthemorphicfieldisavailableandreadilyaccessible.

With the relative contribution of each student, a natural feedback loopoccurs. Inevitably, as amorphic field receives, it gives.

wasmadetoproceedwiththattitlespecificallytoestablishamorphicresonance.Presumably, if more people become aware of the physics of miracles, thenmiracles will inevitably become more frequent. The field itself seems to

recognize that everything, every moment, is a miracle unfolding. In fact, formanypeople,itappearsthereisnodifferencebetweenamiracleandaprocess,except for the illusion of time. So, why wait? Notice now that the gift of amiracleisthepresent.Openit.

I define a miracle as anything that occurs that is outside the realm ofexpectationorbeyondapreconceivednotionofwhat isa likelyoccurrenceforan outcome. When we let go of expectations, preconceived notions, andattachments to specific outcomes, every moment becomes miracle.

Specifically, ageneral understandingof torsion-fieldphysics further assistsus in recognizing our role in consciously connecting to morphic fields andmemes. Morphic fields and memes are containers for consciousness, torsionfieldsofinformation,which, throughresonance,shapeandformourindividual(andshared)experiences.

Consider the following explanations that leverage certain principles intorsion-field physics and quantum physics, as well as offer simplifieddescriptions of interactive reality-creation. Furthermore, they shed more lightupon the influence that individual perspective plays in creating conscious

experience.WelearnedinChapter2thatlightmaybethesourceoflifeandthatallliving

ItwasfurthersharedinChapter2thattorsionfieldsappeartobeeverywherein the universe and that the communicationof informationby torsion fields isnotlimitedtospaceortime.Torsionfieldscancommunicatewithothertorsionfieldsanywhere,instantly.

In Chapter 3, we learned that information in universal consciousness isorganized in morphic fields, which inform behavioral habits throughmorphicresonance.Memesalsoinformandcreateprogrammedbehaviorbytransmittingthoughtsvirallyfromonepersontoanother.Itwaspostulatedthatbothmorphicfields and memes might utilize torsion fields, which are everywhere, ascontainersforinformationandcommunication.

InChapter4,welearnedthattheuniversemightbeahologram.Nothingisseparate and everything is connected. Remember, in a hologram, parts of thehologram contain the whole. So, if the universe is a hologram, we are ahologram.

If we are made of light (biophotons), which we are, and light creates thebody hologram that communicates information through torsion fields, and iftorsion fields are everywhere, then according to holographic principles, theuniverseismadeoflight,information,andtorsionfields,too.

Furthermore, in Chapter 2 we discussed universal consciousness and itsunlimited potentials.

PhysicistDanielWinterpostulates that the answer lies in the etherornon-material substance of the universe. Winter's ether (aether) model, implosionphysics, is nicely summarized in Jan Wicherink's informative book, Souls ofDistortionAwakening:

As we have learned, torsion fields are everywhere, even in our personalfields.(39)

When we collapse the wave function from possibility to actuality as adefined personal perspective (particle of reality), this particle of electron-perspectivehasaspin(anangularmomentumofperspective).Eachperspectiveorparticlespincreatesatorsionfieldinitswake.(40)

An individual perspective, represented and reflected by the wave functioncollapse, also creates a torsion field that is encoded as part of collectiveconsciousness.Asweknow,torsionfieldscantransmitandreceiveinformationanywhereatanytime.Thus,ourpersonalperspectivecreatesatorsionfieldthatencodes the information of our angle or personal vantage point.

Whenwebecomethechangewewishtosee,ourindividualbodyhologramof light emits torsion fields based on the spin of our particular electrons orpersonal vantage point.Change the spin, and you changewhat becomesmorelikelytooccurforyouandforthecollectiveconsciousness.

Our thoughts, emotions, and choices do not happen in a vacuum; theyinfluence what is expressed from the vacuum of infinite potential. How wecollapse thewave function, aswell as howwe uncollapse thewave function,influences everything, because everything is connected and everything issynchronized through reciprocal torsion-field communication by one,with theall.

6.TwoPointstoPointlessness

Truthisalwaystheshortestdistancebetweentwopoints.

—SunMyungMoonTheTwoPoint is an incredible construct that is unique to theoriginalME

morphic field that was developed by Dr. Richard Bartlett. The construct hasevolvedtobecomeapowerfulexerciseforeliciting,noticing,andexperiencingchangeinallfacetsofreality.

The Two Point is a method of engaging in an ongoing conversation withuniversal consciousness. The method leverages awareness to expand beyondresonancewithwhatwearecurrentlynoticingorexperiencingso thatwemaywitness the unfolding of something different. The Two Point allows us toconnectwhatiswithwhatwedesiretoexperience.TheTwoPointisanongoingdance with universal consciousness that enables us to easily move awarenessfromwhereweperceiveourselvestobeandintothetransformationweseektoembodyasexperience.

Originally,Dr.Bartlett developed theTwoPoint as ameasurement tool tocalibrate change on the physical body. A chiropractor and a naturopathicphysician,hewouldlocateapointonthephysicalbodythatseemedstuck,hard,orrigidandthenchooseanotherpointthatseemedequallystuck,hard,orrigidor less stuck, hard, or rigid. When he connected these two points in hisawareness,henoticedthatbothpointsvisiblyandphysicallydissolvedandthenresolvedintosomethingdifferent.

AdiscernibletransformationtranspiredwiththeTwoPointeachtimeheusedit.Painpatternsdisappeared,bonesrealigned,andpeoplefeltdifferent.Butthatwasnot all henoticed.Patterns completelyunrelated to the twopointshehadchosen would change, too. Longstanding depression lifted, relationshipsimproved,andfinancesincreased.Thereappearedtobenolimittothetypesofchangesthatwereoccurring.

The amazing transformations that occurred from this simple awarenessexercisesentDr.Bartlettonajourneyintotheholographicnatureofrealityandquantumphysicsashesoughttoexplaintheseseeminglyinexplicableoutcomes.

Since the initial discovery of the Two Point more than a decade ago, ourunderstandingofhowitworksandwhyitworkshasevolvedsignificantly.Wenowunderstand that there is no real point to theTwoPoint. The point of theTwo Point is to access pointlessness. Pointlessness is what the Two Pointenablesustoattaineasilyandeffortlessly.

TheTwoPointenablesourindividualawarenesstomovefromdualpointsofperspective into the all that is pointless, perspective-less, and distinction-less.The Two Point moves awareness beyond duality and into the unity that isuniversalconsciousnessanditsinfinitepotentials.

Anyexplanationoffers languageasameanstoarticulatesomethingthatnowordscanadequatelyexplain.Wordsascarrierwavesconveywhatweperceivemight be happening, but not what is actually happening.We can never, withabsolutecertainty,knowwhatisactuallyhappening.Themomentwedecideweare certain, we actually limit what we can access. Thus, all explanations aresimply bridges that allow our individual awareness to comprehend somethingthatisbeyondexplanation.Remember,conceptsandexplanationsaremapsthatdescribetheterritoryofconsciousness,buttheyarenottheterritoryitself.

This allows ourawarenesstomoveintorapportwithchangesthathavealreadybeguntounfold.

ThechangesortransformationsthatbecomeavailabletousfollowingaTwoPoint are like ripples in a pondwhenwedrop a pebble into it.The ripples orwaves reverberate outward indefinitely to all the patterns that comprise anindividual'sholographicexperienceofreality.TherearenolimitstothechangeswecanexperiencewhenengagingwithaTwoPoint.

The Two Point allows us tomove our perspective from fixed, immutable,particle-basedrealitiesintofluid,flowing,wave-basedpossibilitiesthatareeverpresent and available to us when we notice them. The Two Point bridgesNewtonian forces, epitomized by the mechanistic physics of separatism, withholographicresonanceandthequantumnatureofentanglement.

Allpatternsinrealityareconnectedand,therefore,allpatternsthatcompriseanindividual'sexperienceofrealityaresubjecttochange.Yes,allpatternscanchange.

The Two Point connects the part of us that perceives itself as separate—physical,discrete,andstuckinexpressionsaspatterns—tothatwhichistheallandwhich appears to be flexible,malleable, and unlimited in possibility. TheTwoPointconnectsuswithconsciousnesspotential.

From a simple mathematical perspective, the Two Point connects us toinfinity,aswellas tozero.Consider this: Ifweplace twopointsonapieceofpaperandthenconnectthem,weformaline.Ifwedividethelineandcontinuetofurtherdividetheline, therewillneverbeapointinspacewherewecannotcontinuedividing the line.Byunifying the initiallydivided twopoints,weseethat infinite divisions or infinite expressions can stem from the initialconnection. There are limitless potential distinctions that can occur. The TwoPoint puts us in direct resonance with the infinite and allows for limitlessconsciousnesspotentialtounfoldinlimitlessexpressionsofchange.

The Two Point also allows our awareness of three-dimensional reality tomove intoa zero-point reality thathasaccess to theall.Whenweconnect thetwo points together in our awareness, we dissolve the dual perspectivemaintained from each discrete point, expanding awareness into no-point, zerodimension,ordimensionlessness.Wearelaunchedinourawarenesstoalevelofconsciousness that, through unity, transcends duality andmoves freely amongthebindingpolaritiesthatareexpressedwithinadimensionalexperience.

TheTwoPointenablesustoobserverealityfrombeyonddualitywhilestillembracing duality. It provides uswith amethod for effectively navigating therealms of distinction and contrast that are the hallmarks of three-dimensionalreality.

The Two Point is also a beacon for creating resonance with establishedmorphicfields,suchasME.Itconnectsuswithamorphicfieldandallowsforthe field to engage with us to reconfigure our personal and collectiveconsciousness.TheTwoPointcreatesaportalforthatwhichisgraceandpurepotentialtobeginsingingitslyricsofpossibilitiestousandthroughus.

While the Two Pointmay at first be something you choose to do, it soonevolves into something that you become. The Two Point becomes a naturalextensionofawarenessthatexpandsourlimitedperspectivetooneofunlimitedpotential. It is anongoing, eternal, and intimatedialogbetween individual anduniversal consciousness. TheTwo Point carries us fromwhatwe are noticingand experiencing right now to noticing and experiencing that anything ispossible.

There truly is no correct or incorrectway to do theTwoPoint. There are,however,manyuseful suggestionsanda fewguidingprinciples for facilitatingawareness of change.Aswe learned in an earlier chapter,martial artistBruceLee'stenetshavebeenadaptedintothefield.Torecap:

•Absorbwhatisuseful.•Discardtheclassicalmess.•Nowayasway.Inaddition,thefollowingcorollariesareuseful:dropdown,placeintent,and

The two points can beanywhere.Atfirst, itwillbeeasiestforsometonotice twopointsonthebodyandtoactuallytouchthem.

Forexample,Imightnotice thatmyattentioninitially isdrawntomyrighthip, and that can bemy first point in the Two Point. To facilitate noticing, Iplacemy right hand onmy hip.

However, awareness of two points can occur with or without theexperienceoftouch.

Now, simply connect the two points in your awareness, as if they are nolongertwoseparatepointsbutactuallyaremergedasone,indistinctconnection.Sometimes,ithelpstoenvisionyourselfasachilddrawingorplayingConnecttheDots.

Themorewenoticewhatisdifferentversuswhatis thesame, themoreweestablish resonance with the unfolding of consciousness potential expressingitselfthroughchangeandtransformation.PracticalPlaywiththeTwoPoint

The Two Point is an ongoing conversation with universal consciousness.

Thismeans that the Two Point enables us tomove our awareness fromwhatappears to be happening now, in a fixed manner, into the flow of multiplepossibilities.Allowthefirstpointtobethelimitlesspotentialofthefieldoftheheart and the second point to be whatever captures your attention. Whereawareness goes, information flows. Notice what you notice, as you flow intosomethingdifferent.

Thetwo-pointcanalsobedescribedasfollows:

First point: Where attention and awareness is presently configured."NoticewhatInotice"and"WhatamInoticingnow?"

Secondpoint:Whereattentiongoesintermsof"WhathaveIyettonoticethatisdifferent?"

The connection between the two points of reference allows us to establishresonance with a different configuration and experience an ease of unfoldingintobecomingthechangewedesiretoexperience.TheTwoPointisaconstructfor perspective that allows us to access thatwhich iswithout perspective anddistinction—the all—and to gently choose a different potentiality to actualizethroughobservation.Choose.

Even if you do not get the Two Point as a concept, the process is easilyaccessible through themorphic fieldofME,which facilitates it to supportandsustainchange.Initially,Ididnotget theTwoPoint.Ididnotseethepointofidentifying twopoints onmybody, or anywhere else for thatmatter, to effectchange.Ithoughtitwassilly.Yet,despitewhatIthought,orunderstood,ordidnot understand, Iwas curious.

I dropped down intomy heart. From there, I placed intent and chose twopoints,withoutthinkingorhesitation.Ichosemylefthipandmyneck,simplybecause they caughtmy attention. I chose those two points because I could. Iwastemptedtohesitate,butIrealizedthathesitationwasnottrust.So,Itrustedand chose those two points, both of which seemed random. I touched them.When I connected the two points in my awareness, like a smiley face, I feltmyselfsortofmeltintothecouchasifmybodywasnolongerseparatefromthe

I drop down into the field ofmy heart and consider where Iwouldliketoestablishresonance.Icanpayattentiontothedesiretoexperiencesomething inmy lifeandconsider thatdesire tobe the firstpoint.Thesecondpoint of the Two Point enables me to connect to the information in thecorrespondingfieldofinformationthatwillfacilitatethatdesire.Forexample,ifIwanttolearnhowtospeakaforeignlanguage,thenconnectingtothemorphicfieldof thatspecific language through theTwoPointwillalloweaseandflowinto that learning experience to facilitate it, by virtue of the established

Where the waves intersect, a cancellation occurs,creatingthepresentmoment.Cramerclaimedthat therewasnoobservereffectorcollapseofthewavefunction,atall,butratherthattimeisanongoingflowof

intersecting standing waves. This work implies that time is bidirectional, notunidirectional.Crameralsodidsomepilotresearchwithphotons,demonstratingthatphotonscouldtravelbackwardandforwardintime.(42)Remember,wearemadeofphotons!

Further research into the holographic universe theory provided even morepuzzling pieces to the mystery of time. American author Michael Talbotelaborates on theoretical physicist David Bohm's theory of time in TheHolographicUniverse:

Inaholographicuniverse,eventimeandspacecouldnolongerbeviewedas fundamentals. Because concepts such as location break down in auniverseinwhichnothingis trulyseparatefromanythingelse, timeandthree-dimensionalspacewouldalsohave tobeviewedasprojectionsofthisdeeperorder.Atitsdeeperlevelrealityisasortofsuperholograminwhichthepast,present,andfutureallexistsimultaneously.Thissuggeststhat given the proper tools itmight even be possible to someday reachinto thesuperholographic levelof realityandpluckout scenes fromthelong-forgottenpast.(43)

DavidBohmisnottheonlyresearcherwhofoundevidencethattheuniverseis a hologram.Working independently in the field of brain research, StanfordneurophysiologistKarlPribramalsoexploredholographictheoryrelativetothemind.Heconcludedthatmemoriesarenotstoredinthemind.Rather, theyarestoredinahologram.

Expanding upon principles of holographic resonance, combinedwith somecompelling principles in quantum physics to enhance practical application,consider the possibility that every experience we have had is encodedholographicallyinourpersonalfieldsviaintersectingstandingwavesthatformnodalpoints.WhatIsaNodalPoint?

Anodalpoint isastandingwavepattern.What isastandingwavepattern?Whyisitstanding,andwhomisitwavingat?

Accordingtophysicists,

thewave pattern associatedwith the natural frequencies of an object ischaracterized by points that appear to be standing still. For this reason,

the pattern is often called a "standingwave pattern." The points in thepattern that are standing still are referred to as nodal points or nodalpositions. These positions occur as the result of the destructiveinterferenceofincidentandreflectedwaves.(44)

The body, as a hologram, has access to these nodal points at all times,whetherthemindisconsciousofthemornot.

Simply speaking, if time were linear and mapped like a road, then nodalpoints of experiencewould be represented by the equivalent of speed bumps.Everynodalpointhasanaddressinthehologram.Encodedineachnodalpointis information specific to an experience. It is not a memory per se. It isinformation locked in a specific configurationof consciousness expressedas aholographic nodal point. The nodal point itself may have a charge, but theencodedinformationisneutral.

Our continual resonancewith information locked in nodal points thatwereencoded in thepast keeps us seemingly stuck in perpetuating a pattern in thepresent.Inotherwords,thismaybewhystuffdoesn'tseemtochange.Considerthatalmostallofourproblemsorpatternswerenotcreatedrightnow.Tochangeapattern from thepast in thenow,wecan leverageTimeTravel toaccess thenodalpointthatisstoringtheinformationthatwewanttoaddress,andopen,andthenreleasetoreconfigureconsciousnesspotential.

Asaresult,anyexperienceencodedinthepastcanberesonantlyimprintedforadifferentpotentialityandcan transformintosomethingdifferent. It isnotonlythatourperceptionaroundanygivenexperiencemaychange,butalsothatwemayfindthatwenolongerevenresonatewiththeexperience.Sometimes,itisasthoughitdidn'tevenhappen,atall.

Remember, change the resonanceof the encoded information, andyou canchangetheexperience.

Whileitmayseemsomewhatnonsensicaltoourlogicalminds,playingwithTimeTravel isoneof themostpowerfulwaystochangeourexperienceinthenow, because most of the perceived now is a result of past resonance. Justbecause our logical, linearminds consider this a nonsensical notion, does notmeanitisnottrueorpossible.Thatitdoesnotmakesensemaybebecausetime,aswehavecome toknow it, is geared toward linearity and forwarddirection.Our linearmindshavebeenentrained toperceive theconceptof time, throughourawareness,asmovingonlyinonedirection.

Our rational minds, as logical linear processors, can observe only limited,

successive sequences of events. Time is how consciousness keeps track of itsmovement.Similarly,ifwewishtoorganizehowaseriesofeventsmighthavehappenedormayhappen,weleveragetimeasamarkerforourawareness.Forinstance, each time something happens, the event creates a holographic nodalpointinourpersonalfield.

It also occurs tomethat,asawarenessmovesdistallyfromthevortextowardtheouterringsofthe torsion fields, we become more subject to linear space-time and the

Recently,IwasinaconversationwithanauthoritativefigurewhoIfeltwasnot listening to me. I was offering my perspective, and rather thanacknowledging what I had conveyed, the person repeatedly interrupted me,contradictedme,andproceededtoarguewithme,onlytoconcludeexactlywhatI had initially shared as though itwas their ownoriginal idea. I foundmyselfgrowingincreasinglyangry;Ifelttotallydisrespected,notheard,andnotvalued.The experience brought up all the emotions that I had ever felt in similarexperiencesinthepast.

However, we do not notice thesemultibranched, alternative options for reality because they are happening inparalleloralternativeuniverses.

So,accordingtoMWItheory,whileyouchosetotraveltoBalionFebruary18 on Sunshine Air, in an alternate or parallel universe, you also traveled toHawaii and the Bahamas on both February 18 and February 21, on bothSunshine Air and Ocean Air. You did not notice these alternate or paralleluniverses because you were resonating in the Bali-verse, swimming withdolphinsandloungingonthesand.Yourconsciousawarenessasanobserveris

Finding our true authentic self does not require total abandonment of ego.TrueAuthenticSelf (TAS)beckonsus toacceptegoand invitesego to followalong as the heart leads us into manifesting desires that consciousness iscontinually creating. Our TAS lives from the heart first in all endeavors andintegrates ego as a useful expression of universal consciousness. EGO can beconsideredEnergyGoingOut,and it isapowerful tool forexpressionwhen itfollows as an extension of the heart.Ego is like a puppydog that desperately

wants to run in the park. However, to allow him in the park without a leashwould be careless, and he might get carried away alone by the ego-police.Initially, when puppy-ego is shown his leash, he whines, resists, barks, andattempts to hide under the couch.

According to Dr. Roland McCarty, Director of Research at the InstituteHeartMath,

coherence is a sort of sign-wave pattern or rolling-hill pattern in theheart's rhythm when we're in this optimal state. The heart's rhythm isreflecting the communication that's going on between the heart and thebrain,somethingverydeep that'sgoingon inourphysiology.Theheartactually sends more information to the brain, neurologically speaking,thanthebraintotheheart.(49)

In the samewaywemay perceive the interconnected patterns of universalconsciousness through synchronicity and flow, coherence is a measurablephysiological effect that also reflects synchrony and flow within the varioussystemsinthebody.Integrationandsynthesisofalltheinterconnectedsystemsof self, including thoughts and emotions, creates coherence. I consider thiscoherencetobeareflectionofouruniversalconnectionasflow.

Accessing limitless potential includes leveraging all of the gifts that havebeen bestowed upon us by universal consciousness. While heart-centeredawareness is a way of being that can allow for access to undifferentiatedconsciousness potential, unity, and wholeness, it is our intellect of mind thatfacilitatesourabilitytomakechoices.Itistheintellectthatprovidesperspectiveandmakesdistinctions.

Without the intellect,wewouldhave to relearn that adoor is adooreverytime we encountered one.

Whenwemake choices for ourselveswith our intellect in the lead, ratherthan our heart, thenwe are leading based on limitations rather than unlimitedpotential.Integratingheart-centeredawarenesswiththeprecision-likenatureofthe intellect provides for a powerful synergy that allows for a completeexpressionofourinherentpower.

The Institute ofHeartMath theorizes that living consciously from the heartimproves intuition, which leads to greater discernment whenmaking choices.(50)

In otherwords, themorewe live from our hearts, the easier it is tomakedecisions.

InLove without End,Glenda Green speaks eloquently about the scientificfunctionoflove:

Awholeisdesignatedbyitscharacterandquality—notbyitsboundaries!Itscenter,however,canbemarkedwitha"0."Theforcesexpandingfromthat point exponentially multiply the energy released. Simultaneously,through the aspect of energetic tension, energy is transferred from oneextremeofexpansiontoanother.Bythesereversals,torqueisgenerated,andthatsetsinmotionamagneticspin,orvortex.(51)

Zero-inginonLoveThe center of a whole can be marked by Zero. Zero has infinite value:

Consider unconditional love as consciousness potential, represented by theplaceholder Zero. Zero is not nothing, as in without value. Zero is nothing;whole and all-inclusive of all values and expressions. Zero is, perhaps, emptyspacethatisvoluminouswithpotential.Asnothing,Zerohasnoboundaries,noparameters,andnoperspectives.ItisaZero-pointfieldofinfiniteconsciousnesspotential.

OneLoveISOne is a placeholder for universal consciousness. One is universal

consciousness, expressing from consciousness potential, represented throughZero.One ispartofZeroandcontainsallofZero,butOne isnotgreater thanZero.FromZero,asnothing,comessomething,andthatsomethingisOne,astheall.

Unconditionallove(Zero-pointfieldasconsciousnesspotential)expressedasOne,maybeconsideredconditionalorconditionedbyvirtueoftheparametersithaschosen.ParameterschosenareOne.JustOne.

Except for One being all-inclusive, which it is, there are really no otherboundaries. All-inclusive means infinite inclusion, infinite expansion, infinitepossibilities, and infinite expressions. Therefore, to me, One is stillunconditionallove.Oneis.Loveis.Oneis.LoveIS

One, as Love IS, seeks to know itself in the sameway that consciousnesspotential seeks expression. In other words, Love IS, in its stillness asunconditional love, has noway of knowing itself as lovewithout experiencesthatreflectbackitsownessencetoitself.

loving.Manipulation is twisting love tomeet an agenda, such that the love issiphonedoffintoaconstrictivefunnelcalledagenda.Cleartheagenda!Loveisfreeofagenda.

Loving unconditionally also means we do not subject ourselves to themanipulationsofothers.Manipulationisamethodofattemptingtouselovetosuckpower.Manipulationisapowerstruggleandadrainonourresources.

Loveisitsownpowersource.Succumbingtomanipulationmayseemeasierthan saying, "I love you and no thank you." Placating a manipulator maytemporarily alleviate the energetic drain, but at a vibrational level, placatingmanipulation simply feeds manipulation rather than offering awareness ofdifferent options. In technical terms, a relationship in which partners usemanipulation to respond to manipulation may be described as a passive-aggressiverelationship.Lovedoesnotmanipulate.LoveIS.

Manipulation of love is a form of addiction. It is reliance upon anotherperson,orpeople,forpower,usingtheir loveandadorationasenergyandasameans to an end, rather than connecting directly to the unconditional love ofuniversalconsciousnessthatisone'sowninfinitesource.

In recognition that the terms compassion, empathy, and sympathy arenominalizations and somewhat subjective, I offer the following personaldistinctionthathashelpedmeimmeasurablywheninteractingwithothers.

As an empath, I am quite adept at tracking and following individual andgroup energetic patterns. Initially, when I first began teaching large groups, Iwas quite sympathetic to everyone and left interactions shrouded in other

people'sstuff. I felteverythingfromecstaticbliss tosuicidaldepression,anditwas exhausting, confusing, cumbersome, and not very fun. (Note:We are allempathic, but some aremore attuned to this part of awareness than others.) Ifound it useful to make a distinction between sympathy and compassionateempathy. Sympathy entailed noticing another's experience while aligning myvibration to the resonant information and vibration in which they wereexperiencing reality. If theywere sad, hurt, or triggered, I felt the same. I feltwhat they felt; itwas stifling tome. Therewas hardly any leverage to noticeanythingbeyondtheirperceivedexperience.Sympathyofferedlittleinthewayofaccessingpossibilities.

Neutrality encompasses compassionate empathy and is an integral part ofrelatingthroughheart-centeredawareness.Neutralityissometimesreferredtoasdetachment. I prefer not to associate the word detachment with the wordneutrality, because detachment sometimes implies disconnection fromsomething. I prefer using the word neutrality to mean or represent new-to-reality.

When experiencing neutrality, we perceive the world through a lens ofinnocentperception,freefromjudgmentsandstillconnectedtotheall.Wearemostcompassionatewhenourvibrationisaligned,withpassion,tothatwhichisallasuniversalconsciousness.

Neutrality does not mean, "I do not care." It means, "I am inherentlyconnectedtoeverything,andthatmeanseverythingisavailabletome."

Neutrality creates a portal-to-unity, an opportunity to transcend ourperceivedlimitations.Neutralityisanextensionofonenessandprovidesuswiththeleverageforsomethingtochange.Beingneutralisacompassionateformofcaringwhenwearerelatingtooneanother.ReflectionsonProjections

Wemaycometoknowourselvesthroughthereflectionsofothers.Whenthesereflectionsfromothersarenotaccurate,wecanforgetwhowe

Often thisoccursduringour formativeyears in relation to ourparents andguardians.Aslittleones,wedonotyetseeourselvesasseparatefromthosewhoare caring for us.

Theseprojectionsinclude,butarenotlimitedto,theirownlimitingprogramsand memes. For example, if they feel they are not good enough, or notdeserving, they may project their thoughts and feelings onto others. Theseimprintsencodewithinformationthatcauseschildrentofeelnotgoodenoughornot worthy enough, and ultimately it creates feelings and experiences of notbeinglovedunconditionally.

As a result, these experiences can establish patterns for a lifelong path ofdysfunction and disease, often through addiction. Addictions becomeplaceholders in awareness to fill the early experience of not feeling lovedunconditionally.Alladdictionsareanunfulfillingquestforunconditionallove.AddictedtoLove

Coherence.Acorrelationbetweenthephasesoftwoormorewavessothatinterference effects may be produced between them. Also, coherence is acorrelationbetweenthephasesofpartsofasinglewave.

TheInstituteofHeartMathstates:

Heart coherence, marked by coherent, or smooth and balanced heartrhythms,istheoptimalstateforyourheart,mindandemotionsandallofthe processes in your body, including cognitive, hormonal, digestive,respiratoryandimmunesystems.(54)

Coherence isaunifiedfieldofundifferentiatedconsciousnesspotential thathas not been defined or formed. It is also used to describe an unbrokenconnectionwith universal consciousness. For example, whenwe are in heart-centered awareness, we are easily able to access a state of coherence withuniversal consciousness, which may be observed by feelings of joy,connectivity, and synchronicity. Coherence is a reflection of our universalconnection as flow. (See also Decoherence)Collapse of the wave function.Simply stated, scientistswere interested in exploring the nature of an electronandwantedtodeterminewhetheritwasaparticleorawave.Whentheywereinthe roomobserving the electron, it behaved as a particle,which conformed totheir expectations. When scientists left the room and videotaped the electronwithoutobservingit,theelectronbehavedlikeanindiscriminatewave.Scientistsconcluded that the expectations of the researchers had collapsed the wavefunction,changingtheprobablewavestatestoparticle-basedfixedforms.Theyconcluded that, indeed, the consciousness of the observer collapses the wavefunction.

Inourpersonalawareness,thecollapseofthewavefunctionmeansthatourobservationsandexpectationsactuallyinfluencetheapparentbehaviorofreality.Thisunderstandingempowersustoplaywithinteractivereality-creation.Realityis neither particle norwave. It is both and neither simultaneously, and as co-creators with universal consciousness, we are influencing how reality shapesitself.

Collectiveconsciousness.Theconditionoftheindividualwithinthewhole

ofsocietyandhowanygivenindividualcomestoviewthemselfasapartofanygiven group. Specifically, the term has been used by socialtheorists/psychoanalysts likeDurkheim,Althusser,andJung toexplainhowanautonomous individual comes to identify with a larger group/structure.Definitively,collectivemeans"formedbyacollectionof individualpersonsorthings;constitutingacollection;gatheredintoone;takenasawhole;aggregate,collected." Consciousness is more complex and harder to define in all itsimplications. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as "joint or mutualknowledge; internal knowledge or conviction; knowledge as towhich one hasthe testimonywithinoneself, esp.ofone'sown innocence,guilt, deficiencies,"andas"thestateorfactofbeingmentallyconsciousorawareofanything."

By combining the two terms, we can surmise that the phrase collectiveconsciousness implies internal knowledge or a consciousness shared by apluralityofpersons.Theeasiestwaytothinkofcollectiveconsciousness,evenwith its extremely loadedhistorical content, is to regard it asbeingan ideaorproclivitythatweallshare.

Compartmentalization (also compartmentalize or come-apart-mentallies).Segregation and delineation of aspects of our awareness, producing a lack ofintegration,synchronization,harmony,andflowinourlife.

Compartmentalization of our spiritual journey occurs when anything weconsiderspiritual is siphonedoff fromothervarious facetsofour experiencedreality. Any delineation made between spiritual and practical—or betweenspiritualandphysical,mental,emotional,relational,orfinancial—aresomewhatarbitrary.Suchdelineationsbecometruewhenweresonatewiththemasiftheywere separate categories of consciousness. In a sense, all categories orcompartments are memes, most of which have corresponding global morphicfields.

Becausespiritisinfusedineverything,compartmentalizingspiritessentiallymeans segregating that which is the all from itself. Yet, it is not possible tocompartmentalize spirit. Spirit is not about anything, as it is everything andnothing.Wecanonlycompartmentalizeourideasaboutspirit.Consciousnessasspirit,source,nature,field, love, light,orwhateverwewanttocall it,doesnotdiscriminate.

Compassion and completion.FoundwithinTrueAuthentic Self (TAS), acombinedstateofbeingthattranscendstheperceivedneedforcomparisonandcompetitionwith others.Whenwe showourselves compassion, and honor thecompletion that is inherently within us all, then we are no longer driven toprojectoursenseoflackontoothers;wenolongercompareandcompetetofeelworthy.InthisrecognitionofourTAS,weendtheself-betrayalandbefriendtheworld.

Congruence.Alignment of the awareness of our coherent connectionwitheverythingthatrelatestoself.

Consciousness. Per Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the quality or state ofbeing aware, especially of somethingwithinoneself; the state or fact of beingconsciousofanexternalobject,state,orfact."Therefore,thatwhichisconscioushas perspective when observing what it perceives. As defined in this book,consciousness includeseverythingandexcludesnothing.Itdoesnotstemfromthe universe, but instead, it is understood here that the universe stems fromconsciousness. Consciousness is all. (See also Universal consciousness)Consciousness potential. As used in this book, consciousness potential isnothing because it has not yet expressed itself as something. Consciousnesspotential is universal consciousness before consciousness creates, actualizes,and/or experiences. Consciousness potential is void of distinctions orboundaries, and therefore, it also has no limitations. Undifferentiatedconsciousness potential is limitless, formless, weightless, timeless, withoutspace,withoutthought,andtotallyfree.Consciousnesspotentialisunconditionallovebeforeloveexpressesthroughconditions.

Constructs.Configurations of information contained or held in a specificform.Examples of constructs of consciousness include, but are not limited to,ideas,opinions,andbeliefs.

Containers. Constructs of information that gives shape and form to anexperience. Examples of containers are morphic fields, memes, masks, andpersonas.

Decoherence. A non-unitary process that describes a thermodynamicallyirreversibledisturbanceinthestateoftheenvironmentbythesystem,incontrasttoadistortionofthesystembyitsenvironment.Whenasysteminteractswithitsenvironment, decoherence gives the appearance of wave-function collapse,which prevents elements in the quantum superposition of the system and theenvironment'swavefunctionfrominterferingwitheachother.(55)Decoherenceistheexpressionofdistinction,stemmingfromindistinctcoherence.

Morphic field. A term coined by biologist Rupert Sheldrake in hisHypothesisofMorphicResonance.Itisafieldwithinandaroundamorphicunitthatorganizes itscharacteristicstructureandpatternofactivity.Morphicfieldsunderlie the form and behavior of holons, or morphic units, at all levels ofcomplexity.Thetermmorphicfieldincludesmorphogenetic,behavioral,social,cultural,andmentalfields.Morphicfieldsareshapedandstabilizedbymorphicresonancefromprevioussimilarmorphicunits,whichwereundertheinfluenceof fields of the same kind. They consequently contain a kind of cumulativememoryandtendtobecomeincreasinglyhabitual.

Morphicresonance.AsdefinedbyRupertSheldrake:

The influence of previous structures of activity on subsequent similarstructures of activity organized by morphic fields. Through morphicresonance,formativecausalinfluencespassthroughoracrossbothspaceandtime,andtheseinfluencesareassumednottofalloffwithdistanceinspaceortime,buttheycomeonlyfromthepast.Thegreaterthedegreeofsimilarity, the greater the influence of morphic resonance. In general,morphicunitscloselyresemblethemselvesinthepastandaresubjecttoself-resonancefromtheirownpaststates.(59)

Morphicunit.AccordingtoSheldrake:

Aunitof formororganization,suchasanatom,molecule,crystal,cell,plant, animal, pattern of instinctive behavior, social group, element ofculture,ecosystem,planet,planetarysystem,orgalaxy.Morphicunitsareorganized in nested hierarchies of units within units: a crystal, forexample, contains molecules, which contain atoms, which containelectrons and nuclei, which contain nuclear particles, which containquarks.(60)

Nodalpoint.Astandingwavepattern.Everyexperiencewehaveeverhadisencodedasanodalpointinourpersonalhologram.Accordingtophysicists:

Thewavepatternassociatedwith thenatural frequenciesofanobject ischaracterized by points that appear to be standing still. For this reason,the pattern is often called a "standingwave pattern." The points in thepattern that are standing still are referred to as nodal points or nodalpositions. These positions occur as the result of the destructiveinterferenceofincidentandreflectedwaves.(62)

O-port-unity.Opportunityandaportaltounity.Parallel universes or many worlds interpretation (MWI). From

mathematician and quantum theorist Hugh Everett III, these terms refer to amodel of quantum physics that seeks to explain what happens outside thecollapse of the wave function.

The theory states that there is auniversalwavefunction,andthateverypossibilitythatcanoccurdoesoccur.Allpossibilitiesbecomeactualities,albeitinalternaterealities.(63)

Zero-point energy (aka Zero-point field). Quantum science in thetwentieth century revealed the presence of an all-pervasive background sea ofquantumenergyintheuniverse.CambridgeUniversity'sDr.HaroldPuthoffwasoneof thefirst tomeasure thisenergy.Hemeasured itatzerodegreesKelvin,theabsolutelowestpossibletemperatureintheuniverse,whichisequaltominus273 degrees Celsius. According to Newtonian physics, at this temperature allmolecularandatomicmovementshouldhaveceasedthatis,noenergyshouldbemeasuredatall!

Insteadoffindingnoenergy,asexpected,Dr.Puthofffoundwhathecalled"a seethingcauldron"of energy;henceforth, itwasgiven thenameZero-pointenergy (ZPE).Puthoff proved that the physical vacuum is not at all devoidofenergyandthat,insteadofbeingavacuum,spaceisactuallyaplenum.
