CHAPTER 1
ACCESSING ENERGY
Blessings. We have previously spoken of love as the primary tenant
of self-empowerment along with the aspect of loving yourself as a
spiritual being, rather than loving yourself through ego and self
aggrandizement. It may be confusing to understand what it means
when we say 'love yourself as a spiritual being.'
The elements that compose a spiritual being are those things that
are seen and unseen. A spiritual being is not someone that is special
or any different than you are. Rather, a spiritual being is eternal, as
you are. A spiritual being is an individual expression of the energy,
love, creativity and light of God, as you are... and a spiritual being is
energy itself.
Because you live in a physical body as human beings, your
experience of your individual spiritual expression can feel limited. As
difficult as this is to understand, limitation is a concept that can be
replaced with the new concept of yourself as energy and light, which
is the way we see you. Because you are energy, your thoughts,
attitudes, desires and feelings, projected into the Universe, return to
you as form and as the creation of those things in your life you have
consciously and unconsciously asked for.

Without understanding yourself as living energy, it is easy to think

of yourself as separate from others and separate from the world,
rather than connected to others, to your world and to other
dimensions through the Divine Energy that composes your eternal
being. It is through this belief of separation from yourself and from
others that you feel free to express your thoughts in negative and
positive ways. But the realization of your connectedness to all things
should teach you the necessity for positive expression in every area
of your life.
Thoughts, actions, feelings, attitudes, words and deeds are
thoroughly discussed in our first book "Living Life Radiantly" and is
referred to in most of our other material. But what is important to
understand is that you are ALWAYS expressing, consciously or
unconsciously, your desires and your feelings about things. Your
feelings are expressed to the Universe as energy and are returned
to you in form. Understand that how you feel about things is how

you access energy. You do this continuously. There are other steps,
but the truth is that you are accessing energy and creating your life
based upon your deep feelings about things. You may consciously
BELIEVE a certain way, but you may FEEL differently about your
beliefs and you may be expressing opposites to the Universe.
Many individuals operate on beliefs that were given to them as
children, or, later, by others. But their feelings and attitudes about
those beliefs and the circumstances of their lives is projected with
energy, because feelings are those things that you express every
day with emotion, whereas beliefs are those things that are often
intellectual.
It is very important, then, to understand that all of your concepts,
ideas, beliefs, attitudes and thoughts comprise the energy called
your life. Because you are energy, you are fluid, you are always in
motion, you are always creating. You are always expressing as
human beings, but you must determine from what platform you are
expressing yourself and in what way you are asking the Universe for
things. If you are accessing your feelings from deprivation,
unhappiness, lack, sorrow, or conflict, those are the forms that will
be presented to you in your life. However, if you are accessing your
request from love, an understanding of yourself as a spiritual being
comprised of light and energy, comprised of the divinity of God... if
you understand that and express your feelings in positive, creative,
fulfilled ways that will reproduce itself in your life as positive
expression and you are accessing energy properly.
Understanding yourself as energy is fundamental to living spiritually
because you are responsible for your feelings, your concepts,
understandings and beliefs. YOU are responsible on the DEEPEST
LEVEL and you also have the opportunity to change those things.
It is also essential to understand that this process, although
requiring alertness, does not have to be so terribly difficult. What is
difficult is the initial break-through to loving yourself fully and
operating as a spiritual being from every challenge, from every joy
and from every moment of your life. The difficult thing is to begin to
feel that, because you have created negativity, there is no way out
or that the task is too large to control your thoughts. In fact, it IS
difficult if you approach yourself in that way. But, if you approach
alterations of your feelings from a point of love and if, when you fall
away from that, you return, you will find that your thoughts, in and
of themselves, improve every day, until you are creating out of your
feelings and your understanding of the energies that comprise your
feelings, more positive expressions in your life.

As energy, you are not just a straight line. You are not a 'hum' in the
Universe. You are spiraling energy, an open funnel which we call a
vortex. You are an open funnel of moving energy. You are light-filled
for eternity. You are a light-filled being in the midst of this energy
vortex. So, you are not just one thing, you are many things. You are
the energy and the individual expression of God in that light-filled
form, in that energy form and in your human incarnation.
With that understanding of yourself as a light-filled, moving funnel
of energy, you are able to send and receive intuitive and even
telepathic messages. You are able to receive vast resources of
wisdom because you are not just your physical body... you are so
much more. You are inhabiting a physical body as a convenience for
a given incarnation, its on-going process called 'life on earth,' and
for your learning. But, as an eternal being, you are connected to
EVERYTHING as light and energy. You are an outpouring of energy
and you are also pouring energy back into the Universe. In the
physical form, this energy is expressed as thoughts, actions, words
and deeds, but then there is the overlay of feelings, deeply
projected, which returns as form.
So, if you are continuously creating as energy beings, then it is most
desirable to create from love, joy, beauty and abundance. Because
you are abundant energy, so abundance pours into you. But if you
do not understand the nature of energy, then it is difficult to
understand the nature of abundance. Energy is limitless. Energy and
abundance are limitless in that form. Money, health and
relationships are all comprised of energy and how they appear in
your life relates to your projected feelings about those things.
All things are comprised of energy, but many things APPEAR
stationary. All that means is that there is a vibratory rate for
everything. Some vibratory rates are slow enough to cause the
appearance of solidness, to cause the appearance of usable,
inanimate things for your convenience. Inanimate objects are
nothing more than energy at a very, very low vibratory rate. Plants,
trees, shrubs, flowers, all things are energy at some state of being,
created out of the Divine individuation of God's energy, as the
expression of Spirit for your use and to display to you the truth of
eternity, the truth that life goes on, the truth of abundance and the
truth of your own spiritual nature.
But you must look at yourself and your world through your spiritual
eyes. That begins by looking through the eyes of compassion and
love for yourself. We do not mean just tolerance, but genuine
understanding and love for yourself as a spiritual being and genuine
willingness to extend that to others. That is the beginning of

spiritualizing your vision, of spiritualizing your understanding of your

life and your ability to access energy usefully.
You are always accessing energy because you are always creating
through your thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and feelings. But, if there is
separation in any or all these things, then you are receiving a mixed
blessing. If there is a separation of yourself from love, then you are
separated on some level from the happiness you know you desire. If
you are separated from love, you are separating yourself from
forgiveness, understanding and compassion. As these elements
become fundamental in your life, so, too, do your thoughts uplift. As
that takes place, your life becomes spiritualized and your
feelings are much more positive, loving, and self-assured.
Then, as your feelings are self-assured, you receive that assurance
in the forms of success, achievement, and better physical wellbeing. All these elements are naturally yours, but they are covered
over by what we call the 'yardstick of the world,' those ideas that
cause you to conform to others ideas of how you should live and be.
The world was not meant to be a fearful place and still does not
have to be. But each of you must determine what it is you want to
know about yourself and to begin to live that daily. Do you want to
know love? Do you want to know well-being? Do you want to know
joy and happiness? What do you want to know about yourself and
are you willing to express those things deeply enough for them to be
expressed to the Universe as feelings?... because you are
expressing feelings anyway. So, you must realize your spiritual
nature to use that vortex that you are. Then your realization, as
form in your life, takes on those things which serve you, and those
things which do not begin to drop away.
You are energy and light, but you are also thoughts, attitudes,
words, beliefs, and feelings. Begin to know yourself well enough to
know what feelings you are expressing as energy and begin to be
aware enough and present enough to love yourself.
Being present in your life comes about through consciously loving
yourself. Being absent from your life, being, if you will, un-alive in
your life stems from the denial of yourself as a spiritual being and
the belief that somehow you are 'not enough' or 'not good.'
It is fundamental to understand that you are, by your very nature,
an extremely powerful being. However, you must express presence
and aliveness in your life from a point of love. This is a protection to
you. This is the element that allows you to create from honesty and
integrity. This is the aspect of your divinity that brings to you a new
life. Realizing yourself as light and love and an expression (through

your thoughts, actions, attitudes, words, deeds and feelings) as a

loving form, an abundant form, returns to you as gifts from the
Universe. But you are really creating those gifts through your
recognition of reality.
You are always participating in this reality. But if you are not present
enough to understand how you are doing this, then it is possible to
feel inadequate, dead and suppressed. You must be present through
acknowledging who you really are, for denial only creates the things
in your life that you would wish to change. Further denial separates
you from a full realization of God's unconditional love for you and
that, as you are loved unconditionally, so, too, can you love yourself
unconditionally as a spiritual being.
Blessings to you, then. Blessings.
