As we become more awakened, we realize that we have to work to release the 3D illusions that we’ve held on to for pretty much our whole life as an immersed human. Trouble is, what are the illusions? How do we release them? If we release them, then what? These questions, and others we may pile on top of those questions, is when we may begin to feel a bit panicky.
Illusions
Let’s start with illusions. EVERYTHING is an illusion.
Have you ever been to, or seen, a movie set? Most buildings are a facade. They only have the front of the building. It’s a movie mask, an illusion, and has nothing backing it up except our willingness to believe it has depth and substance.
Did you get that? “… has nothing backing it up except our willingness to believe it has depth and substance.”
It is our beliefs that keep the facades active. Once you stop believing – or to use the Wizard of Oz example – you pull back the curtain and discover it’s just a grand illusion – then you can move on to discovering what’s real.
But, there’s a catch: What’s real for me may not be real for you, and vice versa. This is why the Team, for all the years prior’s articles, asked and reminded each of us to know self and to listen to self. Don’t accept anything, including what I write and share, without checking in with yourself first. Does it fit you? Do you want to keep it? Do you believe it?
By questioning everything in your currently accepted reality, you are able to begin releasing the illusions – all while re-building trust in yourself.
Now there is a void (you released a belief, for example, which you may have accepted from another person or people – which means it wasn’t your belief – that you are “unworthy”, then a void is created). And in our reality, the Universe is compelled to fill any void. If we leave it to the Universe to fill, then we chance something as equally unhealthy can move in.
Not our goal.
When I, for example, remove an antiquated, outdated, borrowed, or does-not-serve-my-soul-self belief, I visualize that now void filling up with a white light. It will serve as a healthy and safe place-holder until I discover a belief that I want to incorporate into my reality – such as, “I am worthy, and I no longer allow the feeling of being unworthy into my being any more.” Or, some other healthy belief that you want to be yours (not someone else’s belief unless you consciously choose to accept it).
You don’t have to accept every card dealt to you. Shoot, even in 5 Card Draw (poker), you can discard a portion of the cards you don’t like. Except, in your life, you have control over what you’ll accept – since you are, after all, the dealer and player at the same time.
Nothing Is As It Appears
As we break down more illusions, we begin to understand that life on Earth is one big play production. All the drama around us is to keep us locked into the production – also known as an illusion. Nothing is as it appears. We are guided and directed, or herded, into what the major game holders wants us to see, hear and believe to perpetuate the production or illusion.
You’re free to stand up and walk away from the games, drama, and play production at any time. They are all illusions to keep us engaged. And it is each individual’s choice to keep backing up and supporting the illusions (facades, productions, etc.) or to release that and see, and live, your reality.
The name of my business, and my blog, is Reality Undefined. That’s a reminder that we each can work, and rework, our own reality. And, until we define our own reality, it is undefined; therefore, it is susceptible to the enticing grandeur of illusions.
