"You are empowered beings. You are able to do miraculous things, even amid a small amount of doubt, but do your best to release your doubts and limitations. The human imagination is equally effective in arguing for its limitations, as it is in envisioning its freedoms and powers."
James Mahu
“The Sovereign Integral consciousness is our destiny—where we will return when we have no density to cover us. No skins… no masks. It’s not a state of consciousness that can be easily achieved—the Controllers see to that.
“However, the Sonvertos show how it can be achieved, even for glimpses and the thinnest of moments.”
“How? How do they show it?” I asked.
“They provide tools that help people to activate their intuitive and contemplative imaginations. This is how people touch into the Sovereign Integral state. There’s no other way to produce the power necessary to move into this high state of consciousness without the imagination. It is the key. But imagination is like a newborn foal that doesn’t know which way to run with its wobbly legs. The Sonvertos provide the tools to assist with the directions to the mirror or seventh door, and then work with the individual to enlarge the mirror, so it doesn’t dissolve into the distractions of the Controller’s forest.”
“What tools do they provide and where does one find them?”
Uncle pulled out a piece of paper from his shirt pocket. It was folded and was clearly old from age and use. “This is an example of such a tool.”
He laid it out on the ground flattening the edges out. On the paper was a drawing that showed a single, large dot in the middle, around it was six other dots, and around each of those dots were six dots and so on, until the dots became so numerous they became impossible to see or count.
“Each of these dots is a behavior. We call these the six heart virtues, and they’re made up of the qualities commonly known as appreciation, compassion, forgiveness, humility…” Uncle looked at Kohana. “Taku dah-kue?”
“…Understanding… .”
“Ha, yes, and valor.” Uncle looked at me with a smile. “You see what an old deer tick I am? But who cares about the names or memorization? It’s enough to simply practice them.”
He pointed to the centermost dot. “This is the Creator. You see the Creator is the original source of these frequencies we call the six heart virtues. They go out from this centermost source and then connect as the Presence.”
“The Presence?”
Uncle nodded. “This is how the Creator extends throughout the universe. The Presence manifests in physical qualities like light, gravity, space, vibration, and so on, and these are like our human presence—they’re physical. There is also a spiritual presence, one that can’t be seen, but is the cause of the physical. The Presence is both the spiritual and the physical qualities.”
“How does anyone sense this Presence or make use of it?” I asked.
“The same way you sense anything non-physical, you feel it.”
“How?”
“By practicing and raising your awareness until you can feel that a heart virtue you are practicing, like forgiveness, is felt as one continuous behavior.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you practice forgiveness to others, even when it’s not returned, it will return to you from the Creator, and you will feel this in subtle ways, and to feel the subtle, you must seek it. You must open yourself to its expression in your life. You must use your imagination.”
“All of this imagination feels like a made-up experience… like I’m creating the experience… it’s not really happening—”
“What you experience is yours,” Uncle said firmly. “If you choose to create through your imagination, and your world reflects this, you have created your world differently from those who allow the Controllers to create their world. Your imagination is your antenna to the Presence. The Presence is your connection to your Creator. The connection is what enables the Sovereign Integral state to exist within the human state.”
Uncle shifted his position to find a more comfortable posture, and pointed to a dot on the paper in front of him. “This is just a picture with pencil markings, but as I’ve talked to you about it, it leapt off the paper and began to hover in your imagination. It’s being examined there. Your mind and heart are processing this image. They are wondering how it can be useful; what practical value it holds. These are all reasonable considerations, but do you know why you are looking at this paper in this way?”
I shook my head. “…No.”
“Because it’s easier to allow the Controllers to control, than to allow yourself to create.”
