Signals from spirit all serve the same purpose: to give you back your life as a creator.
—Deepak Chopra

From a spiritual viewpoint you are always a creator. The tiniest situation in your life is not made “out there” but “in here,” from the source of reality, which is awareness. People who believe that the material world is causing things to happen are simply unconscious creators—they haven’t taken responsibility for being authors of their own lives.
Second attention gives you the ability to take authorship of your life, putting you at the center of the daily process of making the reality you perceive. Since most of us are conditioned to believe that nature operates independently of what we think, wish, dream, and feel, reclaiming authorship of our reality is a gradual process.

The attitude toward life of someone who functions as a creator is based on these five cardinal beliefs, few of which you have been taught unless you were extremely fortunate:

1. I am an empty vessel. Inspiration fills me every day, but I am not here to hold on to anything that comes to me.
2. I am here to pass energy from one state to another. Hopefully I move it from lower to a higher state, since my purpose is to direct everything toward spirit.
3. I do not have to control the flow of reality. I bend where spirit bids me.
4. The fullness of spirit, not my ego provides.
5. If I live from the source of creation, only good can come to me. Everything from spirit comes from love.

Getting to these beliefs and making them work for you can be an arduous path, but spirit is always there to assist you. The voice of spirit is constantly competeing with other voices inside you, and the outcome of your life depends on which voice you listen to. As you begin to heed spirit, you can only increase your capacity and connection to love.

Love, Deepak
