You Are The Universe
Written and transcribed by Terry Grant
This is a continuation of a message I have edited and transcribed from a talk Ishvara gave on April 30, 2006. - TG.
Ishvara:
Knowing is powerful. Knowing can change things.
If we get to the place where we know something, something can happen. Knowing is very powerful, and I am a knower. This awareness is a process of knowing, and you too are knowers. We can know for the world, we can know for Life, we can know for humanity that there is another way to be. We don't have to accept the consensus reality that says, "This is the only way it can be." If we as human beings continue to accept that, we really deserve what we get.
"Responsibility" is not a popular word. However, when you really look at the word and realize it is about "responding with ability," it is not too bad. It is uplifting: Responding with ability. I am able to hold thoughts, ideals that can lift, support and inspire a better way of being, and I can do that because I am conscious about what I "take in."
Many people worry about the food they eat, but give no thought to the information they are taking in. Certain forms of information can be far more damaging than anything you could eat.
Being aware of what you take in is putting your perspective and focus into a place where it counts. It is too easy to be complacent, thinking, "Well, I'm just one little person. No one is going to listen to me." Yet actually you are not just one little person. You are the universe! Whether you realize it or not, you know as much as any other part of the universe. You have as much power as any other part of the universe, at least when you are in alignment with the flow of Life.
You now run on battery power, so you have to keep your battery charged. The battery is the resource of your existence. The battery is empowered by the way you see, the way you are, how you use your energy, how you receive energy, how you participate in the energy flow of Life--all of that keeps your battery charged.
The new species, the new human in the New Consciousness, will no longer need a battery pack. The new species is going to have a direct hook up, so as to be fully charged all the time.
As you become aware that you are the universe, you begin to have a permanent source of energy. You cannot run out of energy then. But in the meantime, you run on your battery pack, so you want to keep it charged up. You want to put the right juice in it to keep it going.
You can imagine somebody who eats only potato chips and nothing else. That is not nutritional, not very healthy. Yet that is essentially what human beings are doing: eating potato chips all the time, taking in trash information and trying to make it into truth, trying to say, "This is the way the world is, this is how it works, this is what we have to do." They are eating potato chips when they could be fasting, or better, eating nutritional, balanced food.
Balanced information helps you to see the whole picture, the big picture, and to understand the agendas behind particular pieces of information. Now, I heard your intellect say, "OK Ishvara, what is your agenda?" My agenda? My agenda is to wake you up. That is all: to wake you up, to rattle your cage, to disturb you enough to do something, to activate you, to inspire you, to encourage you, to help you to realize that you are powerful, that you do not need someone to tell you what to do.
(To be continued next week).
