Paradigm Shifts

If you want to change what is "Happening" to you read on.....

Our current reality is based mostly on years of conditioning and listening to what those who had authority over us gave us as the TRUTH", a profound example of this is the situation in Texas with the Mormon group. They believe they are right and want to live their life as they are. No amount of talking to them is going to change that belief. Until they realize and accept that what they have been taught to believe is only one mans interpretation of the truth they cannot and probably will not change their beliefs. We all have similar realities, I was born and raised in a similar religious group and it has taken years of study and self growth to break free of that conditioning. what follows below is the beginning of understanding the power of shifting your paradigm, whatever that is currently.IN speaking to various people recently I have witnessed incredible resistance to letting go of their paradigms. People tend to defend their position at all costs rather than to even consider the possibility of another truth. The information below is not my own, but as in previous posts, I am sharing information that came to me. IN practice "giving" this to you allows me to "Become"what I desire to have. Joy and happiness. And yes its long so get your coffee and read on, otherwise come back to this when you have time to give it your attention, it will be a worthwhile investment. And watch for your own resistance as it jumps up and tries to defend your own paradigms. BE part of the revolution!

Have a Marvelous Day!


In The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, Kuhn wrote, "Successive transition from one
paradigm to another via revolution is the usual developmental pattern of mature science."
(p.12) Kuhn's idea was itself revolutionary in its time, as it caused a major change in the
way that academics talk about science. Thus, it caused or was itself part of a "paradigm
shift" in the history and sociology of science. Similarly, agents of change are driving a new paradigm shift today. The signs are all around us. For example, the introduction of the personal computer and the internet have impacted both personal and business environments, and is a catalyst for a Paradigm Shift. We are shifting from a mechanistic, manufacturing, industrial society to an organic, service based, information centered society, and increases in technology will continue to impact globally. Change is inevitable. It's the only true constant. In conclusion, for millions of years we have been evolving and will continue to do so. change is difficult. Human Beings resist change; however, the process has been set in motion long ago and we will continue to co-create our own experience. Kuhn states that "awareness is prerequisite to all acceptable changes of theory" (p. 67). It all begins in the mind of the person. What we perceive, whether normal or metanormal, conscious or unconscious, are subject to the limitations and distortions produced by our inherited and socially conditional nature. However, we are not restricted by this for we can change. We are moving at an accelerated rate of speed and our state of consciousness is transforming and transcending. Many are awakening as our conscious awareness expands.

THE BE-DO-HAVE PARADIGM
This is a dialogue between the author, Neale Donald Walsch, and "GOD" as he refers to the inspirational flow of information that came through to him. In the book, Conversations With God: an uncommon dialogue, Book 3, Page 14-17, the distinction is made via different indentations in the actual text. So it would be easily read, I inserted God, where "God" speaks, and Neal where the author, Neal Donald Walsch, speaks.

GOD: Most people believe if they "have" a thing (more time, money, love -- whatever), then
hey can finally "do" a thing (write a book, take up a hobby, go on vacation, buy a home, undertake a relationship), which will allow them to "be" a thing (happy, peaceful, content, or in love). In actuality, they are reversing the Be-Do-Have paradigm. In the universe as it really is (as opposed to how you think it is), "havingness" does not produce "beingness," but the other way around.

First you "be" the thing called "happy" (or "knowing," or "wise," or "compassionate," or whatever), then you start "doing" things from this place of beingness -- and soon you discover that what you are doing winds up bringing you the things you've always wanted to "have."
The way to set this creative process (and that's what this is...the process of creation) into motion is to look at what it is you want to "have," ask yourself what you think you would "be" if you "had" that, then go right straight to being. In this way you reverse the way you've been using the Be-Do-Have paradigm -- in actuality, set it right -- and work with, rather than against, the creative power of the universe.

Here is a short way of stating this principle:

In life, you do not have to do anything. It's all a question of what you are being. This is one of the three messages I will touch on again at the end of our dialogue. I will close the book with it.
For now, and to illustrate this, think of a person who just knows that if he could only have
little more time, a little more money, or a little more love, he'd be truly happy.

NEAL: He does not get the connection between his "not being very happy" right now and his
not having the time, money, or love he wants.
GOD: That's right. On the other hand, the person who is "being" happy seems to have time to
do everything that's really important, all the money that's needed, and enough love to last a lifetime.
NEAL: He finds he has everything he needs to "be happy"...by "being happy" to begin with!
GOD: Exactly. Deciding ahead of time what you choose to be produces that in your experience.
NEAL: "To be, or not to be. That is the question."
GOD: Precisely. Happiness is a state of mind. And like all states of mind, it reproduces itself in physical form. There's a statement for a refrigerator magnet:
"All states of mind reproduce themselves."
NEAL: But how can you "be" happy to begin with, or "be" anything you are seeking to be --
more prosperous, for instance, or more loved -- if you are not having what you think you need in order to "be" that?
GOD: Act as if you are, and you will draw it to you. What you act as if you are, you become.
NEAL: In other words, "Fake it until you make it."
GOD: Something like that, yes. Only you can't really be "faking." Your actions have to be sincere." Everything you do, do out of sincerity, or the benefit of the action is lost.
This is not because I won't "reward you." God does not "reward" and "punish," as you know.
But Natural Law requires the body, mind, and spirit to be united in thought, word, and
action for the process of creation to work. You cannot fool your mind. If you are insincere, your mind knows it, and that's that. You've just ended any chance that your mind can help you in the creative process. You can, of course, create without your mind -- it's just a great deal more difficult. You can ask your body to do something your mind doesn't believe, and if your body does it long enough, your mind will begin to let go of its former thought about that, and create a New Thought. Once you have a New Thought about a thing, you're well on your way to creating it as a permanent aspect of your being, rather than something you're just acting out.
This is doing things the hard way, and even in such instances, that action must be sincere. Unlike what you can do with people, you cannot manipulate the universe. So here we have a very delicate balance. The body does something in which the mind does not believe, yet the mind must add the ingredient of sincerity to the body's action for it to work.
NEAL: How can the mind add sincerity when it does not "believe in" what the body is doing?
GOD: By taking out the selfish element of personal gain.
NEAL:How?
GOD: The mind may not be able to sincerely agree that the actions of the body can bring you
that which you choose, but the mind seems very clear that God will bring good things through
you to another. Therefore, whatever you choose for yourself, give to another.
NEAL: Would You say that again, please?
GOD: Of course. Whatever you choose for yourself, give to another. If you choose to be happy, cause another to be happy. If you choose to be prosperous, cause another to prosper.
If you choose more love in your life, cause another to have more love in theirs. Do this sincerely -- not because you seek personal gain, but because you really want the other person to have that -- and all the things you give away will come to you.
NEAL: Why is that so? How does that work?
GOD: The very act of your giving something away causes you to experience that you have it to
give away. Since you cannot give to another something you do not now have, your mind comes
to a new conclusion, a New Thought, about you --namely, that you must have this, or you could not be giving it away.
This New Thought then becomes your experience. You start "being" that. And once you start "being" a thing, you've engaged the gears of the most powerful creation machine in the universe -- your Divine Self. Whatever you are being, you are creating.
The circle is complete, and you will create more and more of that in your life. It will be made manifest in your physical experience. This is the greatest secret of life. It is what Book 1 and Book 2 were written to tell you. It was all there, in far greater detail.This is a heart THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD This is a heart Visit the Conversations with God - an uncommon dialogue web site and learn more about the Triology, and the man who was called to bring forth this important message, Neale Donald Walsch.
