By default, our lives are like a carousel in which we get more of what we’re aligned to on a consistent basis. When we’re on a carousel, then we’re moving in circles, and that’s what we’re getting more of. We get more of the same scenery- again and again. Maybe it looks slightly different at times, bu the general experience we’re getting is the same. Our lives are a cycle as well. Or they can be. By default, we keep on attracting the same experiences for as long as we have the same energy. The experiences are just energy- our energy- and for precisely as long as we have the same energy, we attract the same things. What needs to be understood is the difference between a theme and a detail.
We may have a myriad of friends over the course of our lives, but if we don’t change, then all those friends are expressions of the same energy. They may appear unique (and they are in their own experience), but regarding the key characteristics, they will be the same. As long as you like listening to a certain kind of music, you’ll be more likely to have fiends who like that music too. If you change, then th fiends you attract do as well. And it’s the same with all kinds of areas of our lives.
The key to freedom and true progress is not to keep on going in circles on the carousel, but to look at it, assess whether you want it, and then say: ‘I want a better ride’. So you get off of the ride and go to another one. You are consciously deciding on what life to live, rather than to keep on attracting one by default.
Because, how do we re-write our experience after all? By placing our attention on something unlike that which we have focussed upon previously. And unless we make the conscious decision to change our focus, we just observe what is already manifest. And by doing so, we’re constantly attuning our energy to more of the same. And the more we do this, the ‘denser’ our energy tends to become, and the more of an effort it may take to open up to a new and improved experience.
What we need to transcend the cycle is awareness. Our conscious awareness allows us to imagine things as differently than they are in our physical experience. It’s worth noting though that I am not referring to the reasoning mind so much as our conscious awareness of our gut feelings, those hunches we get from beyond the surface level. That level of us comes from beyond the subconscious programming and can help us to transcend the cycle of sameness more than just about everything else.
