Can you imagine?

WHAT IS IMAGINATION?

Consider these propositions:

1. You are imaginative

2. Imagination creates the phenomenal world


3. You create your worldview and experience through your imagination

4.You create good and evil in your worldview

5. Imagination is infinitely creative

6. Imagination is infinite

7. You are infinite imagination

8. You create infinitely

9. God is the basis of your infinite creative ability

10. You imagine who you are, you forget who you are; you can develop amnesia about who you are.

11.You often mis-imagine who you are

12. You can re-imagine who you are; you can refuse to re-imagine who you are

13. When you refuse, you develop a symptom of that refusal and yuu cannot explain that symptom to yourself or explain it away

14. If you get rid of one symptom of your amnesia, another appears

15. Symptoms appear where amnesia has occurred

16. Symptoms are the encoded language of the contracted imagination

17. Imagination is still functioning and creates dreams, visions, nightmares, archetypal symbols and symptoms for your awakening to Infinity.

18. You are "tried in the furnaces of affliction" by all sorts of symptoms and suffering until you finally awaken completely from your amnesia.

19. Every belief system has a premise, a bottom line assumption, which, whether clear and known or not, governs the outcome or final product of the entire system.

20. Infinite Imagination is already the bottom line in every operating belief system, and it is this premise, this reality, which produces the symptom.

21. This premise was inborn by God’s choice, not ours. This premise is the hardware, our true self. Our own installed software, our story, has its own set of assumptions and limitations which run counter to our Inborn Christ pattern, and set up our stress parameters. This installed programming comes from our particular family and culture, as well as from the racial collective mindset. The stress between the inborn Christ pattern (the true self) and the socially installed psychological programming (our story) is universal and inevitable. This dissonance is what we have called being asleep or dreaming nightmares. Awakening is our inevitable destiny.

22. God is buried in you, asleep in you, asleep as you, disguised as you and experiences your entire mis-imagined existence of stress and suffering, until you both awaken as conscious partners.

23. God’s life and your life are inevitably linked in Infinite Imagination
and without this awareness, you cannot be your Self.

24. God is infinite imagination

25. God imagined me individually

26. God created me in the likeness of infinite imagination so that I might create and imagine as he does

27. We are like the potter who shapes the clay pot of this world and when mistakes are made, we re-imagine what we have made without the defects. (Jeremiah 18)

 

Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness 
O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee

 1 Chronicles 29:18

                         Imagination rules the world

                               Napoleon

You can fill a man with knowledge and all you have is a man filled with knowledge, but spark his imaginative powers and he can conquer the Universe.

Einstein
