63 CHAPTER SIX: FREEING ATTENTI 〇 N & INSIGHT FREEING ATTENTION AND INSIGHT Everything flows ー eventually. When attention is alloyed with importance and judgments, it becomes emotional and sticks on things. lt actually changes from a nonphysical wave form into very small physi- cal particles that create thoughts with gravitational attraction. Certain ideas, objects, actions, or even areas can accumulate SO many thoughts that they take on a life Of their own. This is how identity is created. This is hOW amulets and ritual are created. This is how sacred ground is created. This is hOW the universe iS created. S01 .e ideas, objects, actions, and areas are charged with great importance. The more importance assigned tO something, the more attention it attracts. Attention directs attention. Stand on a street and lOOk at the sky. Soon you'll have other people 100k ⅲ g at the sky. Make something important enough, and it will consume a person's entire supply Of attention. They will think about nothmg else. Some people, some events, S01 .e rituals are SO charged with importance that they can cause a per- son to change viewpoints ()r identity) and thus heal bOdy parts, or even surrender self-control. This comes about by a very rapid shift of attention from one reality to a new reality. If the person who is shifted can sustain the shift (without attributing the phenom- ena tO some external source), his or her life will stay changed: sudden conversion, spiritual healing' miracles.

103 CHAPTER ELEVEN: BELIEFS BE リ 5 Consider the question: Are my beliefs shaped by 1 .y experiences, or dO I experience What I believe? If we consider those beliefs that arise as a result Of our experience With the universe, e. g. , because Of SO- and-so I believe, then we are talking about survival. We are talking about our ability to adapt t0 the way things are. This is defensive 1 ⅳⅲ g. But this leads to another question: VVhO created things the way they are? Now we're opening the stage to hungry gods— gods wh0 have nothing better tO dO than tO test man, seducer gods whO bait their traps with temptation and create creatures whO struggle tO resist. ls this reasonable or is there another possibility? Perhaps we create things the way they are, descend intO our 0 Ⅵ n creations, and then forget the way home. The penalty for accepting the viewpoint that our experience with the world is the source Of our beliefs is that we become creatures burdened with limitation and surrounded by challenges t0 survive. SO there we are, scurrying around trying tO decide which consequences are going tO kill us and what we might dO tO survive a while longer. Then without warnmg, some bodhisattva, an Avatar, walks through our lives and reshapes reality by such pure acts 0f faith that somewhere deep inside it all, ⅲ a place behind who we thought we were, a new "l" awakens.

This moment of transcendence, or resurfacing, is a glimpse into the realm opened by the Avatar materials. Welcome home. The StrUCture Consciousness ReSurfacing is a new approach to some very old puzzles: who am I, why am I here, where am I going? With ReSurfacing you find the answers to these questions by exploring the underlying structure of your conscious- ness—beliefs. 0 BeIiefs are the thoughtforms through which you create, interpret and interact with reality.. 0 Beliefs create separation between self and the universe (). g. , This is me.

98 EX 20 RESURFACING Exercise 20 ( ON Ⅵ ( 引 ON How much a belief affects reality is determined by the measure of certainty with which it is held. Conviction implies that doubts have been overcome. OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the variable power of a belief. EXPECTED RESULTS: lnsights intO methodologies Of indoctrination. INSTRUCTIONS Create your own scale Of certainty extending from "extremely doubtful" at the bottom to "absolutely true" at the top. For each step ⅲ your certainty scale, write at least one belief you have that falls at that level of certainty.
