WHAT THE BLEEP
The most often referenced interview in the film is Dr. Joe Dispenza’s comments on creating his day. In response to the numerous requests, the following is the transcript of that part of the interview. “I wake up in the morning and I consciously create my day the way I want it to happen. Now sometimes, because my mind is examining all the things that I need to get done, it takes me a little bit to settle down and get to the point of where I’m actually intentionally creating my day. But here’s the thing: When I create my day and out of nowhere little things happen that are so unexplainable, I know that they are the process or the result of my creation. And the more I do that, the more I build a neural net in my brain that I accept that that’s possible. (This) gives me the power and the incentive to do it the next day. “So if we’re consciously designing our destiny, and if we’re consciously from a spiritual standpoint throwing in with the idea that our thoughts can affect our reality or affect our life — because reality equals life — then I have this little pact that I have when I create my day. I say, ‘I’m taking this time to create my day and I’m infecting the quantum field. Now if (it) is in fact the observer’s watching me the whole time that I’m doing this and there is a spiritual aspect to myself, then show me a sign today that you paid attention to any one of these things that I created, and bring them in a way that I won’t expect, so I’m as surprised at my ability to be able to experience these things. And make it so that I have no doubt that it’s come from you,’ and so I live my life, in a sense, all day long thinking about being a genius or thinking about being the glory and the power of God or thinking about being unconditional love. “I’ll use living as a genius, for example. And as I do that during parts of the day, I’ll have thoughts that are so amazing, that cause a chill in my physical body, that have come from nowhere. But then I remember that that thought has an associated energy that’s produced an effect in my physical body. Now that’s a subjective experience, but the truth is is that I don’t think that unless I was creating my day to have unlimited thought, that that thought would come.”

For a start, the Toltec Teachings are not a religion; Toltec is just one possible path available to us on the journey of life. You might ask.. where are we journeying to? Good question! Life is definitely a journey we all travel, but if we are going to venture forth, it might as well be with joy and love. Personally for me, the Toltec teachings constitute a path with heart. The truth is all spiritual paths in life ultimately go to one place…deep inside to the infinite within us. Everything else along the way is just entertainment! For most of us, our lives are not about love and joy, but instead, drama, pain and fear. So much so, that we have come to believe that this is just how the world and life is supposed to be! Not so! The Toltecs teachings say that life can be a dream of heaven on earth, an expression of every possibility and opportunity. A dream filled with abundance of peace, happiness, grace and love. As a people, the Toltecs lived thousands of years ago in the central valley of Mexico in the cities of Teotihuacan and Tula. For an ancient society they were amazingly advanced. They had incredible knowledge of science and spirit which led them to create a system of teaching that required enormous discipline and will, but was extremely effective. Combining their knowledge of the mind with a spiritual philosophy that incorporated the beauty of all the esoteric teachings, the Toltecs formed a perfect model for transcendence. Focusing on the mind, Toltec wisdom teaches that humans are dreaming all the time and that the way we dream is what creates the limitations in our lives. Changing the programming of their domestication along with the creation of self love and respect was the key to the Toltecs personal freedom. The Four Agreements Using the Masteries of Awareness, Transformation and Intent, thousands of Toltec apprentices transformed their dream of fear and were able to create a mass dream of love. Realizing you can only change what you are truly aware of allowed them to fully transform their reality. Knowing that there is only one force or energy in the universe (intent) gave the Toltecs the impetuous to move beyond the illusion of separation within the dream and embrace their true divinity. The Toltec philosophy is about taking action in your life and traveling your path with awareness. After all, you are going in that direction anyway, whether you are conscious of it or not! How much more enjoyable is it when you can co-create with spirit fully awake instead of being asleep, a victim of your own programming? You can read hundreds of self-awareness books, but unless you put that knowledge to use not one thing will change! Of all the many spiritual paths and teachings available, the Toltec teachings and path has so many practical tools of transformation you can employ in your life. I have personally lived most of my life in pain and fear. I will probably always struggle to work through that pain, to look outside of the ‘drama’ I have identified as my life. However, I now know that there is an alternative to living my life that way and can stand back and recognize that I can make alternate choices.

I have just started yet another Don Miquel book. The voice of knowledge. I will be bringing this book into the mountains with me this weekend and will write a few review and commentary when I return. For those of you interested in finding out more you can find the book HERE.

Hello my dear friends. I leave tomorrow for the Blue Ridge Mountains - armed and dangerous with a few good books, my digital camera, a suitcase full of my favorite comfy casual clothes and an imaginary collection of incredibly bright paint; a collection that does not include the color black or deep blue. I will return on Tuesday relaxed and ready for whatever is to unfold for me then. Wish me luck - I’m leaving my laptop HOME and turning off my cell. What a new concept! Talk to you then! Tom
