"I Create My Reality" May Not Mean What You Think It Means

Part of the You Are It video series on consciousness and remembering.

A gentle reframe of one of the most misunderstood teachings in consciousness work. Drawing on David Hawkins, the Upanishadic teaching of Tat tvam asi, Pleiadian transmissions by @arkaylalove and Resmaa Menakem's somatic work, this video explores the difference between manufacturing events and being the awareness from which all experience arises. Includes the Hermetic principle "as within, so without" and the tuning fork as a grounding example.

All videos in this series stand alone and can be watched in any order.

There is something you already know. That you may not yet remember. I create my reality. May not mean what you think it means. You have held it. Maybe you have savings. Maybe has made you feel hopeful for a moment. And then quietly unsettled. You create your reality. Because. If that is as it sounds, Game. The suffering you are in right now. Is something you built. The injustice you have witnessed. You call that English? The grief. Your caring, You also that too. And suddenly. . . A teaching that was meant to free you? Becomes one more reason to find yourself stubborn. So let us sit with this together for a moment. Because I think there is something worth exploring here more slowly, Gently. Baby Hokies. In the eye of the eye. Makes a distinction that shifted something in me. He distinguishes between experiencing something and creating something. Your individual ego-mind is not the architect of your circumstances. What you add is the consciousness on which all experience arises. Not the interior decorator of reality. The very material reality is made from. Can you feel the difference? One version places the burden on the wounded self to perform correctly. The other. Invite the wounded self to remember. What it actually is. They'll punish her. Written thousands of years ago. Say it this way. Fun a see. That thou art. Note that you resemble the source. Note that you are close to the Divine. That you are in. The consciousness moving to the you. Is the same consciousness. Moving through everything. The same substance in different vessels. Soul. When chaos appears in your life. It is not a report. It is not the universe signaling that your vibration is wrong. Or your thoughts are not clean enough. Kills. Is not a punishment. No. It is not a sign that you are off track. Chaos. Is consciousness itself. The full complexity of existence. Moving through these tense a beautiful dimension. It is bad. Of the full range of what it means to be here. In a human body. In a world still finding its way. And you are not separate from it. You are the awareness. Spacious enough to hold. Yes. Solely. Chaos. Is not the enemy of peace. It is what peace is large enough to contain. And your encounter with it. Your anger. Your grief. Your confusion. Is an invitation. Not to perform better. To remember deeper. Here is a question. The chaos may be asking. Can you remain? As their wellness that holds peace. Rather than collapsing into the belief that you are lost inside it. That I feel. Is closer to what you create your reality. Is really pointing to us. Not that you manufacture events. That you choose. Moment by moment. Whether to experience yourself as the field. Or as a fragment lost within it. Christma Menachem who was with ancestral and collective trauma. Health in the body. Reminds us. That when we encounter something that triggers a deep response Our nervous system is not responding to what is in front of us. It is responding to everything that came before. The generations of wounding. They inherited patterns of survival. The body. That land long before your conscious mind did. That certain things mean danger. This is not weakness. This is accuracy. The body knows the pattern. And soul. When you feel that charge. That titanic. The familiar way. The invitation. Is not to override it with positive thinking. The invitation. Is to sit with it. To listen to it. To let it sing itself free. Back into harmony. Because that charge carries information. It is showing you. Circle. With Consciousness in you. Has contracted away from its own nature. And contraction is not failure. It is simply what density does. The Helmetic principle as within so without. Is sometimes received as a form of cosmic blame. As if. The state of the world. With a guided projection of your personal psychology. What is safe to point to us? Is something more subtle. I'm more tender than that. What appears in your perceptual field? Resonates with something in your consciousness. Not that you built it. That you are in relationship with it. And their relationship. Can always be transformed. Think of a tuning fork. When you strike a particular frequency. Every string in the room. That shows that frequency. Begins to vibrate in response. The tuning fork. Did not create a string. In their home. It did not place them there. What is vibration? Activates what was already present. Already waiting. In correspondence with it. When you shift your inner state. You do not erase the chaos. You change the quality of your encounter with it. And that quality. That's fear you bring to what you make. Shapes what becomes possible within you. Two people can stand before the same difficult situation. One consume. By powerless rage. One witnessing with clarity. Feeling the anger as information. And finding their way back to stillness. The situation is the same for both of them. And yet. . . The field is entirely different. What can be seen. Or can be spoken. What can be changed? Is different. I feel. Is what Hawkins points towards. When he writes that. Single consciousness. Stabilized in genuine peace. Contribute something real to the larger field we are sharing. Not because that person is superior. Simply because. The same thing. Is responsive to what moves within it. And so maybe You are not responsible for creating the suffering of the world. Perhaps. Were being invited. To tend the quality of consciousness. You bring to your encounter with it. Which is not a small thing. It may be the whole thing. Salt The next time you hear, You create your reality. Perhaps. Let it land. Not as a demand that you perform better. But as a quiet reminder. What you already are. You are. The awareness in which all of this arises. The chaos. The beauty. Take leave. The clarity. All of it? Appearing within you. Not to punish you. Not as evidence that you have failed. Particles. You are vast enough. To hold it. I'm pleasant enough. To transform your relationship to each other. That is the power. Not something to acquire. Something to remember. He was never out there. It has always been exactly here. You got it.
