Nuts and Bolts: Intention and Free Will by Eva Herr www.evaherr.com

One of the favored topics of discussion today is the topic of intention and free will. Are you of the opinion that intention creates? What I mean by this is do you believe that intention can shape or manipulate one's reality? Are you of the opinion that human beings have free will? Two very complicated questions with very complicated answers. The answer to both questions is yes and no. How can one question have two answers you ask? rnOne hears the age old questions 1) “if we have free will, why does misery exist?” and; 2) if we can change our reality with intention, why are we still stuck in the same old shoes so to speak?.” The answer is: Because focused cohesion of mind is essential to overcome mind chatter. Mind chatter, though very quiet, is very powerful for it is constant and unconscious. We listen to it and are not even aware we are listening to it. It is equivalent to listening to subliminal recordings 24/7. What are you listening to on your recording? rnThink only about those things you want to experience. For example, say you have been arguing with your partner about how stupid it is to spend all day on the back of a black horse. A black horse that you love and he cannot stand. An inner connected sequence of ill feelings will result. He will leave angry and likely have a wreck involving a person driving a black car with a lot of horse power. Therefore, he experienced the power of the black horse he did not want to experience, but a horse by a different name so to speak. It matters not whether it was a living, breathing horse, but rather the power of that “horse” contained with mind. rnIf energy never stops, but merely changes form, one has no choice but to experience all of those things for which intent has been placed…both conscious and unconscious, positive and negative. In other words, if you are not acutely aware of what you are thinking at all times, your reality will be created by your emotions coupled with the background noise of mind such as “I am sick of this. I am sick of that. I hate this. I hate that. What am I going to do about this? What am I going to do about that?” All of this high voltage, unconscious mind chatter, believe it or not, is creating…and creating on a constant, continuous basis. There is electromagnetic energy and voltage attached to this mind chatter and it is pushed by your autonomic nervous system from your subconscious into reality…not overnight generally, but over time. You are creating your future today. Are you creating with focused cohesive thought or mind chatter? Look around you. Compare what you see to what runs through your head when you are not consciously intending and you will find the key to change your life. Change, totally dependent upon the individual, can occur. We do not become who we are overnight and we generally do not change who we are overnight…but change can occur given time. Notice I did not say “will occur” but rather “can occur.” It takes a LOT of hard work and conscious effort every single day. Change will only occur to the same degree one spends practicing acute discernment and control of mind. To be successful with change, change must become a way of life. rnRemember, the mind is a powerful tool. The brain is not a thinking mechanism. The brain is just a processor, much like a computer. What do you think your brain processes? Big mind? Little mind? Not mush, I can assure you, but rather the God Consciousness of all there is. So, if you are processing the consciousness of all there is…what does that make you? A powerful spiritual being? Does it make you God? Does it make me God? Could it possibly be that we are God contained within a virtual reality human body? Could it be that we are indeed ONE? Something to think about folks…just something to think about. –Agape,
