When I was in my 30s, one of my siblings asked me what I believed about some issue of the time. I don’t remember the issue but I remember I said I didn’t really have a belief about it. This caused them to look very shocked and ask why I was undecided.

“It’s not so much that I’m undecided,” I said, exploring the idea, “but I guess I don’t think I need beliefs about everything.”

Now they looked more shocked, and said, “My beliefs are the most important thing I have! How do you even know who you are if you don’t have beliefs!?”

“Oh!  Well… I don’t think I can base my identity on beliefs because they change a lot over time… I no longer believe some of what I believed even 8 years ago.” 

This brief exchange is very telling about our differences in approach.  They have stayed with their beliefs and I’ve changed mine, often.  This has given me a great sense of freedom and growth.  But theirs give them a feeling of solidity and continuity that feels safe and certain.  

However, it seems to me that when we identify deeply with our beliefs we get into trouble as a group.  My religious versus yours, my political party vs yours.  It’s so easy for things to polarize around ideas and beliefs.  

When our beliefs harden into personal dogma we get brittle and unbending, judgmental and critical, strident and even harsh.  It’s not a very life-affirming way to live. 

Why is this important?  Brittle beliefs interfere with creating the life we really want.  

Thinking about this today made me realize it’s a good idea from time to time to wonder:

What beliefs am I carrying or defending that I would do well to loosen up about?  
Which do I tend to get on ‘rants’ about?
Which of my beliefs make me contentious, separatist, brittle?
Which beliefs do I focus on that are suspicious or darkly pessimistic?  
Which constantly unsettle me?
What beliefs do I have that carry me into frequencies that are not life-affirming?

Tending to these question can help us notice beliefs we may have that are too brittle to support a richly satisfying life. It’s something interesting to think about, it seems to me.

This morning I said aloud:

“I’m taking a minute to pause before I head into my day.  Taking time to recall the Ocean of Being that I’m integrated with and to greet you, beloved friends and family in the unseen worlds.  Walk with me today, let’s communicate telepathically as we tend to do and let’s intend to make our interface ever more immediate and clear.  I try to live available, listening.”

As they always are, they are there and come forth in reply:

A Message From Spirit
The Space of Formulation

“Follow the fullness.  Let it open you and open to you.  Let us call this place we come together the Space for Formulation, for you are always encircled in the Formulation.  Come here to shape your dreams.  Bring your love of sound.  Bring your love of beauty, bring your enjoyment of companionship, bring your exquisite sense of place and purpose.  Bring all you are and all you wish for being.  

This is not a space to effort regarding yet another attempt to manifest a specific thing, a new car, or place to be.  It is a space to bring yourself and the ways you love to be, bring your abilities, your special pleasures in home or companionship, in life.  Bring what causes you delight, what opens your heart.  Bring who you are. Be the delightful ball of light you are.  

Bring yourself in fullness and joy into The Place of Formulation and gently radiate here, encircled about by all we be… and feel the energy that is drawn to who you are and all that you bring.  

Feel near to that perhaps unknown someone sharing your quiet, the easy smile and exchange of light from the eyes of one tender toward you and generous, kind and knowing.  

Feel surrounded by the magic of home place that you always create… where beauty and delight meet in playful wonder and inspiring awe. 

Enjoy the satisfaction of aiding others, of making a difference with simplicity and ease.  

Feel the easy respect of friends and colleagues.  The ease of health and self-care. A grace in your manner of living and being.  

Feel the spaciousness and nature that makes your heart sing and the delight you feel when contemplating your hopes and dreams.

Having luxuriated in these as they exist in who you are, rise up now and hold these in your day, keeping awareness of the mantle of this Fullness of Formulation around you as you move into your day.”

~*~*~

As I sit in the revelation of this, I feel as soft as a gently accumulating snow, as light as a spring breeze.  And I feel a feathery flutter in my heart as I open into the fuller awareness of my being.  I understand: sit in the Place of Formulations feeling the wonder of everything I bring to the party.  Knowing, it’s easy, I Am the party.  This really makes me smile.
