Seeing into Being

Is it possible to see a better world into being? The answer for the Brahma
Kumaris is a resounding ‘YES’. Our philosophy and spiritual practice is based on the understanding that, as the world. Seeing the best in ourselves and others, consistently over time, we will transform our individual consciousness. Then the practical collective expression of our better selves will create a better world to live in.

We come to the idea of seeing with the experience of our physical eyes, which allow us to see what is in front of us. However, the worlds which feel so real that they transport us into new experiences.

Seeing into being describes the power of the human mind

To create through use of the imagination.

Inner seeing is, in fact, a prerequisite to bringing something into being. An architectural framework is built with imagination long before physical hands are able to replicate the image in began as drawings in the mind of the inventor.

Seeing a picture in the mind’s eye can be pleasing and comforting. Or it may serve as a call to action, inspiring me to Bering the idea into being. Sometimes a mental picture has such a person to act even when the idea does not seem possible.

Visualization is a powerful tool used by sports psychologist and athletes as a way to break through habits of thought. Having performed at a certain level of speed, distance limit of their potential. Engaging the power of imagination to crease a picture of higher performance activates the will to stretch beyond the known threshold. By visualizing personal success in a race, the physiology of an athlete’s body in compelled to respond.

In the same way life coaches ask us to imagine our ideal scenario for success to help us strive to create it. Then they help us commit to daily practices that will form new habits, ultimately resulting in the practical expression of our idea. Visualization, thus, is an international use of the mind and imagination to translate seeing into being.

If I can see it I can create it If I cannot see it, I will not be able to create it

Let’s try something. Imagine a green field stretching to the horizon. Speckles of bright pink and purple flowers are splashed across the green. The sky is blue. The sun rises above the horizon, bathing the sky with orange and red. Dew drops sparkle like diamonds on the field, and you touch the cool grass with your bare feet. The air smells like the new growth of spring. You turn towards the sun and enjoy its warmth. Around you there are people walking into the field, joining you to greet the new day. Their faces are radiant with happiness, their eyes smile gently with love. The world is at peace.

Can you picture it? How does this scene make you feel? Perhaps we are seeing the same thing. Or perhaps your field is bigger than mine, or it smells earthier. You have probably dilled in the details from your own memories of nature, as you have known it in its purest form. And you may be feeling the way you do in nature.

I am imagining this scene while sitting in a café in Canada. I can see snow outside the window, a contrast to the sunny field. Perhaps you are in a crowded city, or you are reading this in a country too hot and arid to have green fields. Yet, although separated by time and space, we are seeing the same thing with our minds. The idea from my mind has travelled through time and space to take shape in your mind. The idea came as a picture and created a feeling.

The purpose of this experiment is to show that seeing is very powerful. Pictures and ideas are contagious and can stimulate memories, bringing an experience into being. Big ideas for creating a better world must capture the heart as well as the imagination, awakening a longing to change, and to step beyond the known comfort zone. Where do these ideas come from? How do they get traction?

The good things we long for- love, peace and happiness – have no pictures. We cannot see them; rather they are experiences, feelings.

However, we associate our deepest feelings with pictures of the people or scenes where we experienced them. The feelings and associated awakened when we remember something familiar but forgotten, the longing to experience We recreate the know.

At this time the human heart is longing for the experience of kindness, acceptance, respect and peace. We all feel drawn to these values, and share a common picture in the mind’s eye of what they can look like. When asked to describe their idea of heaven or a better world, most people (including those who do not believe in heaven) describe a similar place. It has a lovely clean environment, everyone is treated with respect, everyone is safe and cared for, and we all live in peace.

From the perspective of rebirth, we have all been there. Everyone has a memory of a beautiful time within them, buried in the subconscious and carried across centuries.

Our longings are expressions of our deepest memories from our past. They draw us to replicate the conditions in which we first experienced them, driving our desire to create new world into being, we need to create more experiences of goodness, innocence and kindliness in this world. Then, over time, we will begin to see and believe in the possibility of a new world.

Let’s go back to the field. Only this time imagine you are stepping up into a field of higher consciousness, where it is possible for minds to connect and beautiful memories to be seen in full expression. As you arrive, imagine that there are thousands who, like you in this moment, are imagining a beautiful world. The power of our combined concentrated thoughts bends around time and space, surrounding the world with a blanket of generative energy.

As you left your awareness beyond the threshold of daily consider the possibility that there is an even higher energy field, drawing you up beyond the limits of what you consider possible and empowering you to create the blueprint of feelings and pictures buried in your memory.

Although the pictures may not be clear, the longing to create a better world is growing. A beautiful world will come from our collective positive dreams.

Join me in the field.
