Creativity and Its Many Forms

By Hara Glen 

We are all part of a larger creative force, thus the possibilities for expressing ourselves is limitless. Everything begins with a thought. If the thought touches us in a special way, we hold on to it and continue to expand our thinking until it forms into an idea, encompassing more thoughts.              

The next step would be to nurture the idea by taking some form of action, however small it may be. If we stop thinking about the idea, it will either sit on the shelf for a period of time or just be aborted. If we already have a busy schedule it is sometimes difficult  to hold on to the “idea”. This is how many creative efforts are lost. But if we continue to nurture the “idea”, we begin to value it and suddenly it becomes a deep “desire”.              

Let's say that we hold on to the desire. Now is the time to bring creative imagination into the picture. Creative imagination is “controlled” mental picturing for a specific purpose. It is possible to use this in a harmful way. But our intention must always be to create something that will be beneficial to ourselves and others. We must be established in truthfulness. Be true to ourselves, true to the laws of nature, and truthful in our relationships with family, friends and associates. Now we are ready to settle in with a descriptive picture of how this idea can be made manifest. Allow your creative imagination to soar through quiet time with the Divine. Your past is nothing more to you than memories and feelings, so use creative imagination to replace unpleasant feelings with pleasant ones.            

Remember, we are co-creators with the Divine so when we connect with a desire that is in harmony with our destiny, the way will open up for it to become a reality. We often are required to assume a new concept of ourselves by going beyond what we thought we could possibly do. Let's say you want to create health for yourself and it has been a burning desire within you for quite some time. It takes a shift in consciousness in order to bring into reality this desire. Picture in your mind what it would be like to be healthy again. What would you do with your life? You must assume certain responsibilities  as you move into the preparation of an incarnation of the “new”.
