Joseph says:
"The energy is immediate, it is present. It is omnipresent. Yes, and so there cannot be any title given to you or any outside perspective that makes you more receptive to that. It is you in this moment.
Are you open to it? Are you not? Do you have the awareness of the openness?
In other words, many people don't even know that that's the faculty that they can access. But as you continue to just open to it, you're able to leave their thoughts out of it and just have that direct experience, that direct relationship. Which is all that those teachings [Christian teachings] are about anyway is having that direct relationship in this moment right now, and if you're not able to - in other words, if you believe it's possible, but you're not able to, then there's just some other thing that you're holding onto in this moment.
And you should be able to recognize that by the contrast: by how it feels. Is this an idea that is allowing me to relax into the presence of that energy, or is this an idea that is sending me running around?
So it is having an awareness of the process. And what we mean by that is to be an instrument is to be a channel, to be a focal point, to be an expressive medium and that is what we mean when we talk of being a medium here.
It is the context through which that energy is expressing and what it comes down to, is you have your own beliefs your own opinions your own approaches. And that is why when we speak of this process those approaches, those beliefs, those ideas are raw material that the energy can portray itself through into finding a new expression.
So everyone has that going on and everyone has that as a possibility, but you have to have that willingness and that openness to have your own ideas be transformed into something that is a conduit or conducive to that energetic expression. And it is an acceptance and it's an allowing and it's all that we talk about here: when we talk about the process when we talk about your ideas moving in your energy shifting.
It is not some outside process. It is your thoughts your beliefs your approaches. Which are then allowed to transform into something that is unique to you - your unique creation, your unique contribution. So in the same way you see someone pick up a violin and play it and you have that unique expression of the violin and you don't expect the violin to sound like a flute, per se.
Or you pick up the flute and you don't expect it to sound like a tuba and we say, the same is true of you and everyone that you have your own timber, your own tone, your unique expression of the energy and you're going to focus it in a way that is unique to you - a unique expression. So accepting that process and allowing it to continue to develop and progress is what will allow that tone to express in physical reality.
And it's not some some faraway prize that you'll achieve or accomplish far down the road.
It's just having an awareness of your next step.
It's all you have to be aware of, is your next step. Because that's what the energy is calling forward. That's what the energy is making you aware of, and that will lead into greater expression, but you can't get further than your next step.
That's what we talk about with this process where something comes up that you don't necessarily agree with, something that you don't jive with, something that is a belief system that maybe you have had something to do with in the past. Or maybe it's just something that you can't relate to now, but you feel the difference of that energy and instead of getting into that belief system and trying to mess around with it and feeling the discord that that introduces into your field, you're able to recognize that - almost like an energetic boundary and to say "Ah, and this is what my process is. This is what is calling me forward. This is my next step.
This is my unfolding. This is my inspiration." And that's how you create your personal unfolding. And it's not saying this is right or wrong. It's just acknowledging that that's part of someone's process and saying "But what I prefer, what is inspiring me, what's calling me forward is this."
And then you continue to refine that because you'll follow that and then you'll have more ideas show themselves to you and you'll say "oh that is different than my new revelation, which is this-" and then you carry forward with that.
And so then you're in this newly refined energy - you've taken the bounce from that - and you're in this newly refined energy and you have all of these new ideas and when you start to create things from that place, from that place of energy that you're describing to us, then they're sort of like artifacts that call other people forward.
So people who had been wrapped up in that belief system, but who are not able to make the jump of energy that you achieved can then look at the things that you write or create, and they have a physical reference point. And then you are allowed to build that bridge into that new energy for them.
That is how you help others along that path. Now you can do it just by radiating your energy, but part of that radiating processes that you're going to want to express yourself. And so then that's the path that you're on going forward from that energy is "how am I going to express this?
What is the next medium? What is the next instrument for me to express?"
It comes naturally, that inner understanding comes naturally and it will always give you the words at the right time. When you overthink it, you complicate it too much.
And you start to create this filter that the energy then has to try to find its way through... When you can release that and just to have that direct inspiration. Just let it come one word at a time, and the same way that we're talking about just finding your next step, when you're in the throes of that energy flowing to you and through you just allow the next word, the next word, the next word, the next idea, the next thought, the next feeling, the next understanding - just to come one after the other after the other. As Aaron's relaxing here, it's just: this is the next thought. This is the next idea.
And when you look back on what has flowed through you have this sort of great body of work, you have this greater conceptual understanding than you would have been able to figure out. And that is why people who are creative in all sorts of different mediums have that process.
They say it is not my creation, it is something that moved me into this understanding.
And then you start to allow all of it to come together as the person, as the Consciousness that you are because when you're in that relaxed State, it's not just something that you're being at this moment. It is your Eternal self. That is who you will always be and who you always have been, so we just want you to recognize it as a state of being yes, but an eternal state of being."
