I invite you to sit back and get comfortable and close your eyes as I'm reading you this mythical story of remembering.
As I'm reading the story,
Use your visualization and imagination to picture as vividly as you can the things that I'm describing.
This story just simply points to truths and it may spark some remembering in you.
It may spark your own truth to some degree.
So sitting back and relaxing now.
Once upon a time,
Source Energy was all that there was.
It was ever present,
Everywhere.
And because there's no way to really describe or label or conceptualize what that was like,
Let's just pretend that Source Energy looked like a massive radiant sun.
And that sun's essence was pure,
Pure love.
Countless rays of sunshine extended from this source.
Each of these rays was unique.
And each ray was loved immeasurably by Source as it was its creation,
An extension of itself.
It was the Source Energy sharing itself that created these rays.
Because Source was essentially love,
Pure love,
So too were the rays as they were extensions of Source's love,
Pure and whole and brilliant.
They extended out from Source to explore and experience and co-create and as they did,
They contributed to the expansion of the universe.
Even though the rays were each individual,
They knew themselves to be whole,
Complete and one with their creator at their core.
And they lived in constant,
Blissful samadhi.
Then as the rays explored further and further and deeper and deeper,
They decided that they wanted to explore and play with what it would be like to be on their own,
To be separate from Source.
Even though this could never actually really happen in reality because of what they were,
Extensions of their creator.
But they wanted to play with what it would be like to be their own creator,
To be their own separate self.
So they started dreaming and imagining,
Just like children do.
The rays pretended to clothe themselves in a physical body and they created this imaginary world where their physical bodies could roam around and explore and create and experience and play in the dream of separation.
And it was fun for a while.
But eventually they completely forgot that they were just playing and dreaming and imagining.
And eventually they started to forget who they actually were and where they came from.
They thought the dream they made was real.
They thought they were actually separate from Source and from each other.
They thought the world they dreamed was all that there was.
They got lost.
In the dream of separation the higher connected mind,
The mind that thought with their creator,
Was mostly unreachable to them and the separated mind could only perceive opposites,
Time,
Fear and lack,
Which just kept perpetuating the reality of separation.
They even created the strange concept of death and thought that this was real.
When the rays forgot who they were the lower mind took over.
With limited access to the higher mind the lower mind became out of balance and out of control and caused untold suffering for the rays.
It caused so much suffering because they thought the mind was who they were.
They believed what it told them about themselves and the world around them and most of what the mind said made them feel unhappy.
The creator watched as his rays had these experiences and it did not upset him.
He loved his rays so much that he had gifted them total free will and total freedom and he knew that they could never truly be lost,
Damaged or broken because of who and what they really were,
Extensions of himself.
He knew that they couldn't remain lost forever because they would never actually find what they were looking for in the world of form,
In the physical world.
Each success,
Each win,
Each happy moment would be followed by unhappiness,
Loss and defeat.
Such was the way of form,
It was up and down and changing all the time.
There really was no such thing as making it there because it always felt as though something was missing.
The creator knew that her rays would come looking for her again.
Soon they would have had enough of suffering and forgetfulness and playing and separation and they would want to find that missing piece.
They would want to come home.
So as soon as the rays forgot who they were,
The creator responded by infusing their dream of separation with her messengers.
Rays had remained connected to her,
Rays who knew the truth.
And as soon as one of her dreaming rays wanted to remember,
Decided to end its suffering,
Wanted to go home,
That ray would light up like a bright star and would be visible to one or more of the creator's messengers who would help that ray.
As long as that ray kept making and confirming that decision as it all had to be governed by free will.
Ray after ray began to remember and they started becoming messengers themselves.
Just their presence and their energy was sometimes enough to cause a dreaming ray to want to awaken.
The physical world was evolving into something else as more and more rays remembered.
It became a place of light.
A place where a ray could play with form without losing himself in it.
The higher connected mind source entered the world of form through its rays.
And together their creations were truly magnificent.
