Methods of Discovery and Creation

     From my personal experience and my observations of others, I believe there are four main categories of methods for coming up with creative ideas.

    Where do brilliant ideas come from? Where do scientific insights come from? Where do the primary elements of soulful and penetrating art come from?

    From my personal experience and from my observation, these are the main categories, and the main methods within each category, for making insightful discoveries and producing great art.

A. Then Man Himself:
    The man discovers things using logic, knowledge, and figuring it out. He makes discoveries through experimentation and observation. It often comes by seeing patterns and correlations after years of study. Note that this is where the general concept of studying or practicing a topic for 10 years becomes an asset.
    Many of my discoveries have come through seeing patterns. If you study a topic long enough you start to see correlations. Similarly, you study a topic long enough and you work with it in various ways long enough, then you get a deeper understanding. You start to see logic issues: “this traditional explanation doesn’t make sense…it must be something else”. And then you proceed to figure out what the real answer is.

B. From the Spirits:

    This includes getting general inspiration from a Muse. This also includes getting specific fully formed ideas (including visuals or sound) from the spirit world.

    Note also that studying and practicing a topic for many years becomes an asset here. This is because the spiritual world will not show you something unless you have a reasonable ability to understand what is being shown to you.
 

    I do believe that some of my discoveries have come from the spirit world. Three discoveries in particular. Plus a few more which I am not yet ready to share. The way I know these came from Spirit is because the ideas came from nowhere. They just came.
    On the other hand, if I didn't have years experience with the topic I would not have been able to understand what was being shown. Without my experiences as author and educator, I would not have been able to express it. Therefore all these aspects work together. 

    Also some of my poetry was inspired by Muse. And one in particular they weren’t letting it pass through my head: “really, write this down. Really”. And the visuals for that poem were very clear in my head.

C. Man Accessing Spiritual Realm:

    This includes subconscious discoveries and special intuition. In this case the man accesses information he cannot see directly. It is not his conscious mind or logic, nor it is a spiritual being who is giving him the idea. The man is coming up with the discoveries, yet he is doing it in unusual ways. It is his intuition, which is an indirect method of accessing subtle information.

    Note that many of my scientific discoveries have come through my scientific intuition. And I have learned to trust my scientific intuition. There have been cases where my scientific intuition has been proven correct.

D. Trial and Error or Mistakes - with Ability to Recognize Benefits:

    This applies to men who like to tinker and play around (with equipment, with music, with art media, or with ideas). This also applies to mistakes (an accidental mixture, the object melted). The method is overall haphazard, but the genius exists in recognizing the great idea…then expanding on it and developing it.

   

   In addition to the above four, there is a 5^th method, which can be used to supplement and enhance the other four: collaboration and discussion.

E. Collaboration and Discussion

    Through collaboration, individual creators can share ideas. They can offer new ideas which build off a previous idea, or they can help refine ideas. The net result is a final product which may be greater than what either individual would have created on his own. 
    Similarly, discussion stimulates ideas, and perfects the theories proposed by either person.
    The methods of discussion and collaboration also allow each person to learn more, thus providing more ideas or possibilities to work with. This prompts each individual into additional creativity, resulting in better ideas, more refined solutions, more sophisticated art, and more innovative products.

Summary Thoughts

    These are the broad categories, and the main sub-methods within each category, of where brilliant ideas may come from.

    Most of these methods come from personal experience. This is supplemented with observation of other people, and noticing things in biographies of specific famous people.
    Thus, one method created this idea, another method created that idea, and a third method created a third idea. The basic answer to “where did you get the idea for this” is “all of the above” or “it depends”.

    Note that this list is brief and to the point. There are many details involved in each method. There are many specifics in each method. These will be discussed periodically in other blogs.

    I am thinking of talking about my discoveries, my creations, and discussing how each one came about. You will then see that insights and creative ideas don’t just come from one source, but can come from any of the above methods.

 

 

All You Need is…Your Inner Siri

Your Inner Siri

A related concept to the communication with the Universe is communication with your “Inner Siri”. In addition to getting information and images from the Universe, you always have an inner guide – your own inner Siri.

Call it your Higher Self, your Intuition, your Personal Guru, or your Inner Siri. Whatever you call it, you do have this expert inside of you. This personal guru is an amazing expert related to one specific topic: You. Ask it anything about Who You Are or What My Next Step Should Be, and it will tell you the right answer.

Sometimes I call this entity the “Inner Siri”. On the I-Pad, Siri is a great resource. Ask Siri any question, and she will find the answer. Siri is particularly good when I want to know “Where am I?” and “How do I get to my next destination”.

In the same way, you can ask your Inner Siri questions such as “Who am I?”, “What Should I Do Next?”, and “How Do I Get to my Next Goal?” Your inner Siri will know the answer.

However, many people do not know how to access their inner Siri. Also like Siri, you have to phrase the question in the right way to get the best answer. You also must know how to interpret the response. 

Again we return to John Lennon: “All you need is Love.” Being in your love state, being in your happy and joyful state, being in your playful state, this is the best place to be when talking to your inner Siri.

For example, play with your puppy…then ask your Inner Siri the questions. Take a walk in nature, then ask your Inner Siri a question. Laugh with some friends…then sit still as you listen to your Inner Siri for answers.  You will tend to get clearer answers to your questions if you are the Love and Playful state when you communicate with your Inner Siri.

All of these examples are ways that you can be in the Love Channel. By bringing yourself just a bit happier before you begin, your communication with your inner Siri will be more effective.

“It’s easy…All you need is Love.”

Growing and Discovering in the Love State

Each of us will be growing our soul throughout our lives. We are continuously finding out more of who we are, and what we are meant to be. The quest is on-going. And yet this quest is always easier if we remain in a playful and loving state. In other words, remain in the Love Channel as much as possible. Then no matter where you are on the journey, you are more likely to be the place you are supposed to be, and on the right track for your own personal journey.

As John Lennon said: “Nothing you can do but you can be you in time…it’s easy…All you need is love.”

 

 

Summary of “All You Need is Love”

 

You are a living version of the I-Pad. You can access information, download images, and stream videos. You can get insights, make discoveries, and create new art. You can often hear or see the finished product in detail, with amazing clarity.

All of this information is provided by spirits and energies of the Universe. Yet for many people, the connection to the Spiritual Wi-Fi is locked. We can’t seem to find the correct password.

John Lennon has already told us the password: “It’s easy….All you need is Love.”

You have your own Siri deep inside you. Ask it anything, and you will get an answer. Your inner Siri is particularly useful for questions such as “Who am I?”, “Where should I go?”, and “What should I do next?”

Many people can’t seem to find the connection. And yet to communicate with your Inner Siri is “Easy".

All you need is love.

Joy, Playfulness, Love. The puppy who springs out the door with excitement to greet you. These are the feelings which unlock your connection. These are the feelings which open the door to the richly textured communication.

All you need to do to obtain these images, videos, information, and creativity from the Universe is to access the spiritual version of the 4G Broadband Wi-Fi Network.

All you need is Love.

 

 

 

 

 

All You Need is....Your Love Channel

Overview

In Part 1 of this blog we talked about John Lennon’s song “All You Need is Love” as referring to spiritual communication with the Universe. And in this communication, the ideal method is to access the Love Channel. Now we will discuss this Love Channel in greater detail.

The Love Channel

Let’s look at the Love Channel more specifically. You access the Love Channel when you feel Joy, Happiness, Playfulness. You access the Love Channel when you give and receive love, when you have fun, when you laugh. All of these feelings and actions are part of the Love Channel.

The Love Channel is the best channel for receiving information from the Universe. The Love Channel is the preferred channel on which the spirits of the Universe communicate. And therefore you will get the best answers by tuning into that same channel.

In addition, and just as important, the Love Channel is the most clear of all spiritual channels. Choosing the Love Channel is the difference between a regular television channel and High Definition. Choosing the Love Channel is the difference between fuzzy images and a clear signal.

The Love Channel provides richness and depth to all information. If you are a musician, the music which arrives is much more complex. If you are an inventor, the images of your invention are almost so real you can touch them. Whatever type of information you are “downloading” from the Universe, when you are fully in the Love Channel, that information comes to you very clear, very textured, with many subtleties and complexities.

The Love Channel as a Broadband Spiritual Channel

This is also why I said “All you Need is a BROADBAND Wi-Fi network”. If you are familiar with using Wi-Fi systems then you know that using a Broadband system provides with better signals. The term “broadband” refers to the number of frequencies which are sent at the same time, and hence the amount of information sent at the same time. This is why phone companies are always advertising more frequencies of broadband in their systems. More frequencies means more information.

The same can be said for the Love Channel. Of all the channels which can be used for accessing information from the Universe, the Love Channel is the most “broadband” of all channels. When you are fully tuned into the Love Channel, you will get a very clear signal – regardless of where you are.

A related concept is your own receiving system being broadband. The more fully you are immersed in the Love Channel, the more broadband your receiving system will be. As you get more fully immersed into the love channel, more fully joyful throughout your body, you will be receiving a wider range of Love Channel frequencies.

The spirits are sending you information in broadband frequencies. But are you fully receiving all the frequencies (and all the information) available to you?

Love Channel Summarized

Thus, the Love Channel is the best channel for receiving information, images, and insights from the Universe. The Universe uses the Love Channel as its preferred channel for communication.

The Love Channel is inherently a broadband channel. The spirits of the Universe are always using various frequencies of the Love Channel to communicate with you. Therefore, the Love Channel is inherently broad in order to accommodate all the spirits and all the messages being sent.

In addition, the amount you open up your body to become more fully immersed in the Love Channel will determine how much information you receive. If you feel just a little love, the spirits will use that and communicate with you what they can. Yet if you feel a great amount of love, an incredible level of happiness, then you will get richer experience from the Universe, with many vivid images, and many multi-layered messages. Greater joy will allow you to receive more information, and any information will have more details and subtleties.

Finding your Love Channel

How do find your Love Channel? Remember that the Love Channel can be accessed whenever you feel Joy, Happiness, Laughter, Playfulness, or Love. Any of those feelings will open your door to the Love Channel.

 

For example, think about your puppy springing out the door when you come home, wagging his tail, just so happy to be with you.

Think about a young kid in Disneyland – or an adult who rekindles the feeling of being a young kid. Think about having that unlimited fun and pure joy in the Magic Kingdom.

Think about a special weekend you spent with friends, where you played fun games, listened to music for hours, and laughed all night.

These are the types of experiences and feelings which will open the door to the Love Channel. And later, these are the memories which will bring back those feelings, to re-open the door to the Love Channel, and connect you to the Universe whenever you desire.

All You Need is…a 4G Wi-Fi Network

Overview

Recently I finally discovered what John Lennon meant when he said “All you need is love.” What John Lennon was talking about was a Spiritual Connection. He was talking about a spiritual connection to the Universe. He was talking about a spiritual connection to your inner guru. That was his message.

“All you need is…a 4G Wi-Fi Network”

In modern terms, John Lennon was telling us: “All you need is the spiritual version of a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network.”

 Let’s sing it together:

“All you need is…a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network.

 All you need is…a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network.

 All you need is…a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network, a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network.

 A 4G broadband Wi-Fi network is all you need.”

Okay, so it’s not as catchy. And is a bit complicated to say. Yet that is the real message behind the song. John was telling us: For many things in life, all you need is the spiritual version of a 4G broadband Wi-Fi network. All you need is Love.

John Lennon was not implying that love is all you need for every aspects of your life. Rather, he was telling us that for certain areas of your life – particularly knowledge, insights, and personal growth – Love is what you need.

“Nothing You can Know that Can’t be Known”

Here are some of the lyrics to “All You Need is Love”:

“There's nothing you can do that can't be done

Nothing you can sing that can't be sung

Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game

It’s Easy…All You Need is Love.”

“There's nothing you can make that can't be made

No one you can save that can't be saved

Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time”

It’s Easy…All You Need is Love.”

“There's nothing you can know that isn't known

Nothing you can see that isn't shown

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be”

It’s Easy…All You Need is Love.”

 

Now consider some of the phrases individually: 

“There’s nothing you can know that isn’t known.”

Doesn’t that sound like a Google search? Anything you want to “know” is already known somewhere. All you have to do is find it.

“Nothing you can see that isn’t shown.”

Doesn’t that sound like sharing photos on Facebook, or streaming videos from the internet?

“Nothing you can sing that can’t be sung.”

Doesn’t that sound like streaming music from the internet?

 “There’s nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be.”

That sounds very much like asking Siri: “Where am I?”

I find it amazing that the processes described in John’s lyrics for spiritual connections are very similar to using the Wi-Fi networks for our I-Pads.

In our modern devices we are using our I-Pad to access information, photos, videos, and maps from remote locations. We connect to a wireless system, and access that information from the stored location far away. This information is delivered straight to our device. We can get the information and videos anytime, anywhere.

Similarly in the Spiritual realm we are using our own Soul, as we did with the I-Pad. Using our body and soul we can develop a wireless connection to the spiritual realm. Once we make a connection to the Universe, we can then obtain information on any topic! We can get instant knowledge. We can see images in our head. We get “videos” – very clear videos presented to us in the theater of the mind.

Indeed, the process of accessing information and images from the spiritual world is exactly the same as accessing the information and images from a remote computer database.

John Lennon knew this. In modern language he was telling us: if you want this kind of information, images, and music, then use Love to create the connection, and then you can access the information. This was the basis for his song “All You Need is Love.”

Channels to the Spiritual World

Just as radio stations and computer devices use radio waves to communicate, the Universe also uses radio waves to communicate. We simply tune into the right frequency to receive the particular radio waves we desire.

When using a radio, if we want to listen to a particular station we must use a specific frequency. Similarly, for our Wi-Fi systems we must set our devices to receive information on one of a few designated frequencies. If our receiver is not on these frequencies, then our devices would not receive the information.

In much the same way, we humans must access particular frequencies to obtain information. As living beings we have the ability to receive communication from the Universe. However, there are only a few channels, only a few frequencies, which are used to send and receive this information. Therefore, we must know which channels to access.

As John Lennon knew well, one of the best channels to receive communication is the “Love Channel”. There are other channels which will receive information, but none so well as the Love Channel. This is why John said: “Love is all you need.”
