Divine Light, which is Divine Love, is made up of ...
1.An Infinite Intelligence, that knows all things about all things because It has created all things...
2.An Omniscient Wisdom which knows how to manage, transmute and transform all things from any one given state to another...
3.An Unconditional Omnipotent Love. There is no power greater than this Divine Love because all things are made of this invisible Substance, which is equally everywhere present in all things, at all times. It is unconditional which means it does not judge and will move in whichever direction you ask or direct it to.
We will talk about this in greater detail in upcoming lessons. For now, it is a good start to open up your awareness to the simple existence of this Divine Light.
Although Divine Light may be still be invisible to you in one sense, it is easily visible through observing and sensing its effect. Very much like the air is invisible, yet you can see its effect as the wind rustling through the trees or you can feel it moving through to your lungs as you breathe in an out. So it is with Divine Light. You can see and sense the effect of Its presence by noting everything around you, including yourself. Everything you see is a manifestation of Divine Light.
Like all of the basic principles of the Light, this one is simple, direct and can take a lifetime to master the remembrance of it, as well as understand what it can mean on a practical level. Or, it could just take a flash of an instant. The remembering of, and the learning about, the vibration of Infinite Unconditional Love is not linear.
It's easy to begin to practice the Principle, however, and allow it to seep into the pores of your traditional way of going about your daily activities. You just decide to do it.
Becoming aware and remembering that Divine Light is equally everywhere present in all things, at all times, doesn't necessarily mean you have to change the circumstances in your life if you don't want to. If you practice this Principle, however, it will change the way you go about perceiving those circumstances. It will definitely change the way you view the world in which you live, which will change the way you react to the world around you, which will change the quality of your life.
We will talk in greater detail about what all this means in practical terms in the upcoming lessons. For now, the next step of the journey is to practice the Principle of the Presence of Divine Light in all things.
EXERCISE:
1.Take a moment to observe the world around you, the colors, temperature, textures, shapes, sounds. Make the choice to see three shapes in the area around you that you have not noticed in the past. Now, notice the shadows in the room. See how they will change the appearance of the color of whatever it is they are touching. Chances are, taking that moment to observe, made you more aware of the subtleties of the world around you. If you do the Basic Activation of the Divine Light Vibration meditation (also available in podcast format) and then do the exercise again, you’ll notice that you actually see even more than before.
2.Now flirt with the thought, “What if this Divine Light (or God, or Christ, or Allah, or Shiva or the Buddha or however you choose to name the source of Divine Creation) IS equally everywhere present?” Right here, right now. What would that mean to you?
3.For just one week, try to do everything you would normally do as if you were in the presence of, and surrounded by, Divine Light. As you cut the carrots for dinner, do it in the presence of Divine Light, knowing the carrot you are cutting is also made of Divine Light. As you eat it, know you are eating a form of Divine Light. As you interact with others, whether at work discussing a business transaction... at the grocery store paying for groceries... sharing a smile, a hug, or a kiss... or even when another motorist cuts you off and you yell out in frustration, “WHERE'D YOU GET YOUR LICENSE YOU #!@#!, OFF THE INTERNET?”... try to do it in the consciousness awareness that you are in the presence of Divine Light.
4.If you like the results, do it for another week. And then another, and another, until it becomes a habit. You can still go on and do other lessons in the meantime, of course.
By the way, when I first did this exercise twenty five years ago, I got frustrated because I kept forgetting. I have yet to meet someone who has emotionally and mentally taken this on board in the first try. It doesn't mean they don't exist; it just means I haven't met them yet. So, if you forget, just know that's pretty normal. If you don't forget, I say, “Way to go! The collective consciousness of Divine Light really has accelerated individual awakenings!”
To help me remember, and this was twenty five years ago before the collective awareness of the Light had gotten as strong as it is now, I put up sticky notes saying, “Practice the Presence”. I had them everywhere - on my refrigerator, my bathroom mirror, bedside table, dashboard of the car, on my calendar, on my closet door, on the dining room table, on the television set, on the stereo. I mean everywhere. It got to where it looked like I was living in a sticky note world. Then, one day, I realized that every time I simply saw the color yellow (the color of the sticky notes) I was reminded to consciously practice the Presence of Divine Light. I finally took the sticky notes down when I recognized that practicing the Presence of the Divine Light had become a part of my everyday living. How that came about is another story for another day.
I'm not saying you need to redecorate your world in neoclassical sticky-note-décor in order to start changing your perceptions. I am saying, do whatever you need to do to help yourself to remember to do this exercise. Your Divine Soul will guide you on the best way to do just that.
Oh, and have fun! Yes, even if you find yourself yelling at that motorist. Once you finish yelling, that’s a good time to laugh out loud and shake your head, saying, “Like yelling at him is really going to change him... and what just happened.” With practice, you’ll soon learn to be in the flow where even the motorists don’t cut you off. In the meantime, if they do, it won’t push your angry buttons any more.
Have you started practicing the Presence of Divine Light yet? It's the beginning of a pretty exciting adventure. Your computer is Divine Light... the table it sits on is Divine Light... your chair is Divine Light... you are breathing Divine Light...
