The 11 Principles of Being Page 4 The Masters Gathering Principle 10: All differences in this world are of degree, and not of kind, because oneness is the secret of everything. ~ Swami Vivekananda In the beginning, there was Source. And Source was interested to see how different parts of Itself could experience and expand within the Universe. So Source became individuated parts: the birds of the air, the plankton of the sea, the stars of the sky, and humans. That is a re-written version of the Creation Story, illustrating that we are all One, we are all individuated parts of The One having experiences for the purpose of growth. In actuality, time doesn t exist in a straight line, so we are imagining that a Presence called God existed prior to the Creation. The point to the story is the concept that we are not insignificant little beings put on Earth for the amusement of a Higher Intelligence, but that we are part of that Higher Intelligence, or Source. We come from Source and we are made up of the energy that IS Source. Religion and Science Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, Islam all the world s major religions teach a similar concept of what God or Source is: The Alpha
The 11 Principles of Being Page 5 The Masters Gathering and the Omega, has always existed, always will exist, can take any form, is omnipresent and omniscient. Science today, through Quantum Physics, tells us the same thing, but refers to the all-pervasive Creative Force as Energy : Subatomic particles make up the physical universe, and have distinct qualities, such as being able to be in two places at once. Particles or Energy can move from one place to another without crossing the gap in between (like tele-porting in Star Trek ), and are also able to move back and forth in time. We can t see subatomic particles, we can only experience them and their effects. Sounds just like the definition of God, doesn t it? And if Source Energy is everywhere at all times, and makes up everything in the universe, then it follows that you are part of that Source Energy, as is everyone and everything else. Omni-scient, meaning all-knowing Omni-present, meaning present everywhere at the same time Both are terms traditionally applied to the concept of God. Both are terms equally applicable to the definition of the Intelligent Energy which makes up our universe. You have a connection with every other creation in this Universe, because everything is One. Everything in the universe is energy, including physical matter. As Einstein s formula, E=mc 2, states, energy traveling very fast converts into matter. Energy and matter are, essentially, just different forms of the same thing.
The 11 Principles of Being Page 6 The Masters Gathering This is how science today is proving the ageless spiritual understanding that we are all One and are all intricate parts of The Whole. Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe. ~ Erwin Schrodinger, 20th century physicist What does it mean to be at One? If you understand that you are the one making the request for your desires, and the same one fulfilling that request, and the same one manifesting and experiencing that request then you don t need to worry about anything, ever. When you work from the position of Oneness, you start seeing that you already are one with all the things you desire and that anything is possible. You are the Experiencer and he Experienced, simultaneously. You are one with Source. Nothing is difficult or denied from that place by and through the Source. The Universe is friendly to all your desires and nothing is impossible if you only believe. Individuation and illusion of separation are necessary because as we see different versions of things, we come to understand that those are versions of ourselves, and then we can choose to express the parts that we want. Whatever qualities you see in someone else whether wanted or unwanted are actually qualities that exist in you. If you see something you dislike about another, understand that you also have the capacity to be just like that, and you are free to choose to be otherwise. This works also in your relationships. If you see the best in someone, that will bring out the best in you, and will also cause the best in them to manifest whenever they are with you. The Law of Attraction rules this if you project kindness and look for only kindness from others, they must, by law, show you the kind aspect of themselves.
The 11 Principles of Being Page 7 The Masters Gathering Changing a Difficult Situation Using the Concept of Oneness If you are having difficulties in your relationship with someone, here are some steps to take to turn the relationship around: 1. Make a list of his/her good qualities. Recognize that you, too, possess all of those qualities, because you can t see something in someone else unless you have it inside; it s a part of you too. They are the mirror showing back to you some of your own qualities. 2. Write a letter to this person, outlining his or her good qualities and thanking them for being who they are. If you feel comfortable doing so, mail or give this letter to them. Otherwise, it s fine for this exercise to be for your eyes only; the act of physically writing positive words about another reinforces those aspects. 3. Determine to recognize that person s good qualities whenever you are together. Notice and acknowledge those qualities, either in your mind or verbally, if you can. What this does is change your focus to what you see as their good or admirable qualities, thereby eliciting more of the same from them. Remember, where you place your focus is life-impacting, because the Universe brings to you that which you are focused upon. A small shift in consciousness will change everything. Using the concept of Oneness can elevate and make breakthroughs for you and eliminate all unnecessary suffering. As you learned in Principle Five, the illusion of separation can be overcome by cultivating certainty and belief in the mind-expanding idea of Oneness. When you understand that you and everything around you is the same Being individuated in different guises, you realize that anything you are experiencing was put there by you. As you experience these situations you created, you are able to re-create your life by choosing what you focus upon next.
The 11 Principles of Being Page 8 The Masters Gathering Ownership You can never permanently own anything on this earth; we are all transient and in process. Life is change. The One is all there is, and we are all free to experience any part of the Oneness we choose, while we are in this Earthly life. Ownership is a detrimental state of mind, whether you are thinking that you own something or someone, or thinking that someone else owns you. Here on Earth, what you think you own ends up owning or possessing you, because of the law of reciprocity. When you think you own something, it takes away your freedom. As an example of this, consider your body. Your leg cannot own your hand; it can only play with or interact with your hand for some increment of time. The leg and the hand are both individuated parts of the Whole. This concept can be applied to how you view anything in your life. When you attempt to possess something, you chase it, which prevents you from using it as a tool. The things and people in our lives are tools for self-understanding and expansion. Thus, chasing something or attempting to own it is fruitless and interferes with your real experience of it. Whether you like it or not, when the time comes for you to move on to another aspect of your life, or to even leave this physical body, you have no choice but to release all those things. Instead of grasping onto things or people, think of yourself as the custodian of what comes into your life, until it is time for that thing to move on and for you to move on. Exercise: Shifting Out of Ownership Mode Think of something that you have been really wanting in your life. This may be a bigger house, a fancy car, an island vacation anything that you are intensely wanting. It could be that you want this thing so intensely that you are actually chasing it away. Now imagine that this thing is part of the Whole that you are also part of. This thing is already connected to you, and is available for you to experience and
The 11 Principles of Being Page 9 The Masters Gathering enjoy. All you have to do is invite it in, ask it to become part of your life experience for as long as it is enjoyable and growth-oriented. Then imagine allowing this thing to gracefully move out of your life experience when you are ready for other experiences. By looking at your life experiences as interactive parts of the Whole, you release your attachment to ownership and can just enjoy them. The Cost of Disharmony Disharmony is costly and never profitable in the long term for anybody. It is disruptive and can prevent you from creating what you would really like. You can avoid disharmony by looking at everything in the world as different aspects of the Whole which you are also a part of. Cultivate the understanding that there is no better way or worse way, there is just a different way. Everything in your attitude affects the world around you. So it s in your best interest to do your part to be in no conflict with anyone. And to take it further, allow your attitude of acceptance and inclusion of The All to help elevate everyone all over the earth into a greater consciousness of wealth and joy. Scientists have shown us that attention to a test subject affects the actions of that subject. We realize that this applies to our thoughts in all arenas, and that we can impact world situations because, again, we are all One. The One You are the Observer and the Observed simultaneously. Nothing exists until you point your consciousness at it. You came into being as you split off from The Whole in order to experience life, for the purpose of growth and expansion. The illusion is that you are separate in a physical world that's not the case at all. Separation versus Individuation There is no separation, there s only individuation. Think of individuation as different dimensions of the same thing. As discussed previously in these Principles, what we normally consider to be our human mind is actually made up
The 11 Principles of Being Page 10 The Masters Gathering of the conscious, the subconscious and the super-conscious all parts of the whole mind. Likewise, there is no separation into many different things; there are only dimensions and facets of the One Thing. Anything that you desire is already part of The One, which you are also part of. Happiness and misery both exist as separate possible experiences. Wealth and poverty both exist as different aspects of The Whole. Who gets to choose whether you experience one or the other? You do! We are individuated parts of The One, but The One is bigger than all of us put together. We all come into form from the original One Vibration. The Universe is essentially Vibration Energy, and not just energy but information energy, which is intelligence. And at the base of all this is Unconditional Love, which says "yes" to anything we ask for. As an individuated piece of All Knowledge, you have the ability to experience anything you choose. And the basic reason we chose to be born into this time-space earth reality is to experience ourselves at the next level. The Unified Mind Field Here s how supply and demand works behind the scenes: As the mind field is one (and remember that your mind and all others' minds make up the Unified Mind Field), any idea or inspiration that comes to you comes from others' ideas along the same vein, being held and circulated in the Unified Mind Field. For example, when a large number of people have a similar desire to have a certain type of gadget to make their life easier, a person with the appropriate level of ability and belief (or desire) will have the inspiration to create it... and then sell it to the people who want it. So the next time you have an inspiration, know that there's a group of people, small or large, that is actively asking you and waiting for you to fulfill their desires. In other words, somewhere around the world, or down the street, or next door, someone is praying very hard for just the thing that you are inspired to do. You are the answer to their prayers, and they are the answer to yours.
The 11 Principles of Being Page 11 The Masters Gathering Our interconnectedness gives a new foundation to the guidance, Do unto others as you would for yourself. Conclusion The religious term God and the scientific term Energy both have the same definition: Infinite, Eternal and Continuous. You are the Manifester, the Manifested, and the Experiencer the same person that communicates, fulfills and experiences any request. You are an individuated part of The Whole, at One with everyone and everything else in the universe. Enjoy the things and people who come into your life, knowing that you are only the temporary caretaker and experiencer. As a component of The Whole, you are able to create and experience all things, and have only to choose that which you want to experience. Any aspect of life that you desire is a part of you and, therefore, is available to you.
