The 11 Insights of the Celestine Prophecy
from the books of James Redfield.
Summarized by Kathie Wallace and with excerpts from James Redfield's web site.
1.When a CRITICAL MASS of people see life as a journey of unfolding, mysterious, and exciting synchronicities that lead us forward and ask about the mystery, a series of insights will be revealed that will shift us.
:: Remember to live in the mystery of the synchronicitous world.
2. THE LONGER NOW This awakening represents the creation of a new, more complete worldview, which replaces a five-hundred-year-old preoccupation with secular survival and comfort. While this technological preoccupation was an important step, our awakening to life's {coincidences} is opening us up to the real purpose of human life on this planet and the real nature of our universe.
:: As we awake, we will create a new world view honouring the universe as energy and sacred [and conscious]
3. A MATTER OF ENERGY We now experience that we live not in a material universe, but in a universe of dynamic energy. Everything extant is a field of sacred energy that we can sense and intuit. Moreover, we humans can project our energy by focusing our attention in the desired direction...where attention goes, energy flows...influencing other energy systems and increasing the pace of {coincidences} in our lives. The physical universe is actually a vast system of penetrating energy that responds to how we think. It vibrates at a certain level. Unfocus the eyes to see the energy fields surrounding everything. When our attention is focused with intent, we see more beauty: more presence and sharpness of shape and vivid, iridescent, shimmering colours. Start each day by soaking up the energy in nature for 10-15 minutes, seeing and soaking up the beauty and seeing the energy fields. From that, our understanding of the physical universe will quickly transform. The new life view is that energy responds to how we think. Love is not about being good or morally responsible. Rather it is about connecting with energy fields and deeply appreciating the beauty in nature.
:: See the beauty and see everything as divine energy. [Fill up and fluff up with it. Love is connection…synchronicitous connection.]
4. THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER Too often humans cut themselves off from the greater source of this energy and so feel weak and insecure. To gain energy we tend to manipulate or force others to give us attention and thus energy. When we successfully dominate others in this way we feel more powerful, but they are left weakened and often fight back. Competition for human energy is the cause of all conflict between people. We think we have to compete with each other for energy and steal energy from others because we are disconnected from the larger source of this universal energy so we practise domination, manipulation, and control to fill up with other people’s energy. This struggle is responsible for all human conflict. In fact, the universal energy can sustain us. We do not need other people’s energy.
:: Feel yourself filling up fully like a balloon with energy in all directions and experience yourself as all of the universe as whole, complete, and full: love.
5. CONNECTION WITH ALL THAT IS Insecurity and violence ends when we experience an inner connection with divine energy within, a connection described by mystics of all traditions. Senses of lightness…buoyancy…along with the constant sensation of love are measures of this connection. If these measures are present, the connection is real. If not, it is only pretense. The only solution is to cultivate a personal reconnection with the divine as a transformation which fills us with unlimited energy, love, and knowledge which extends our perception of beauty and lifts us into a higher self-awareness. To experience ourselves connected with the endless source of energy is to feel euphoric, light, mystical, grateful, secure, and connected. If the whole landscape is us, feel in love with everything as accepting the energy so our energy field enlarges and sends energy back to everything. Drawing energy from the entire universe, our energy field and the universe’s are the same…i.e.….the universe is our body.
To permanently connect with the energy, we must pass a hurdle: we must stop the control drama that we repeat over and over. Once we are connected with enough energy to see through our control drama so we know we are always connected with all that is, we get higher guidance in our lives so life flows. We must be fully conscious of what we do to manipulate for energy.
Our dramas are:
1) interrogator-constantly asks questions and probes into another’s world to find something wrong to criticize in order to drain energy from you
2) aloof-withdrawn so people come to you and give you their energy. Aloof creates interrogators
3) poor me-shares victim stories and guilt trips so drains your energy
4) intimidator-aggressive Intimidator creates poor me
:: In the higher awareness, we can release our own pattern of controlling and discover a specific truth, a mission, we are here to share that helps evolve humanity toward this new, higher level of reality
6. CLEARING THE PAST The more we stay connected, the more we are acutely aware of those times when we lose connection, usually when we are under stress. In these times, we can see our own particular way of stealing energy from others. Once our manipulations are brought to personal awareness, our connection becomes more constant and we can discover our own growth path in life and our spiritual mission…the personal way we can contribute to the world. When you have acquired enough energy, you are ready to consciously engage evolution to recognize the [synchronicities] that will lead you forward. Remember your basic life question, the one your parents gave you [because of who they were], because this question provides the overall context for your evolution.
Next you center yourself on your path by discovering the immediate, smaller questions that currently confront your life. The problem in life isn't in receiving answers. The problem is in identifying your current questions. Once you get the questions right, the answers always come. After you get an intuition of what might happen next, the next step is to become very alert and watchful. Sooner or later [synchronicities] will occur to move you in the direction indicated by the intuition.
Always remember to stop as often as necessary to reconnect your energy. Stay full and stay in a state of love. Once you achieve this state of love, nothing and no one can pull more energy from you than you can replace. But you must stay conscious of this process in order for it to work. This is especially important when you interact with people.
:: Consciously filling with energy brings synchronicities which lead us forward in our lives. Fill up, grow, expand, and exist at higher vibratory levels.
7. ENGAGING THE FLOW Knowing our personal mission further enhances the flow of mysterious {coincidences} as we are guided toward our destinies. First we have a question; then dreams, daydreams, and intuitions lead us towards the answers which usually are synchronistically provided by the wisdom of another human being.
In pursuit of this mission, we can discover an inner intuition that shows us where to go and what to do and if we make only positive interpretations, the intuition brings a flow of synchronicities that opens the doors for our mission to unfold. Constantly ask, “What is my next best step?” (From Phil L'Hirondelle-thank you)
:: Be guided by the positive learnings/[lessons].
8. THE INTERPERSONAL ETHIC We can increase the frequency of guiding {coincidences} by uplifting every person that comes into our lives. Care must be taken not to lose our inner connection in romantic relationships. Uplifting others is especially effective in groups where each member can feel energy of all the others. With children it is extremely important for their early security and growth. By seeing the beauty in every face, we lift others into their wisest self and increase the chances of hearing a synchronistic message.
::When enough of us enter this evolutionary flow, always giving energy to the Higher Self of everyone we meet [because we are living our lessons], we will build a new culture where our bodies evolve to ever higher levels of energy and perception.
9. THE EMERGING CULTURE As we all evolve toward the best completion of our spiritual missions, the technological means of survival will be fully automated as humans focus instead on synchronistic growth. Such growth will move humans into higher energy states, ultimately transforming our bodies into spiritual form and uniting this dimension of existence with the after-life dimension, ending the cycle of birth and death. In this way, we participate in the long journey of evolution.
::Ultimate goal: to energize our bodies until we walk into a heaven we can finally see here and now.
10. HOLDING THE COLLECTIVE VISION The Tenth Insight is the realization that throughout history human beings have been unconsciously struggling to implement this lived spirituality on Earth. Each of us comes here on assignment and as we pull this understanding into consciousness, we can remember a fuller birth vision of what we wanted to accomplish with our lives. Further, we can remember a common world vision of how we will all work together to create a new spiritual culture.
::We know that our challenge is to hold this collective vision of a new world with intention and prayer every day.
11. EXTENDING COLLECTIVE FIELDS OF INTENTION The Eleventh Insight is the precise method through which we hold the vision. For centuries, religious scriptures, poems, and philosophies have pointed to a latent power of mind within all of us that mysteriously helps to affect what occurs in the future. It has been called faith, power, positive thinking, and the power of prayer. We are now taking this power seriously enough to bring a fuller knowledge of it into public awareness. We are finding that this prayer power is a field of intention, which moves out from us and can be extended and strengthened, especially when we connect with others in a common vision.
::This is the power through which we hold the vision of a spiritual world and build the energy in ourselves and in others to make this vision a reality.
എന്നെ വളരെ ആകര്ഷിക്കുകയും, സ്വാധീനിക്കുകയും ചെയ്ത ഒരു ഗ്രന്ഥമാണ് ജെയിംസ് റെഡ്ഫീല്ഡിന്റെ 'Celestine Prophesy' എന്ന ഗ്രന്ഥം. സത്യവും സങ്കല്പ്പവും ഒക്കെയുള്ള വെറും ഒരു രചനയാണെന്ന് ആരെല്ലാം പറഞ്ഞാലും എനിക്ക് ഉള്ക്കൊള്ളാന് കഴിയില്ല, അത് അങ്ങിനെയാണെന്ന് മരണം വരെ സമ്മതിക്കുകയുമില്ല. വളരെ വിശ്വസനീയമായ ഒരു പശ്ചാത്തലത്തില് വളരെ കൌസലത്തോടെ എഴുതപ്പെട്ട ഒരു ഗ്രന്ഥമല്ലിത്. ഉത്തുംഗമായ ഉള്ക്കാഴ്ച ഇല്ലാതെ ഒരു മനുഷ്യന് ഇതെഴുതാനും സാദ്ധ്യമല്ല. ഇത് വി. ഗ്രന്ഥമായി എടുത്തുകൊണ്ട് ജീവിക്കുന്ന Celestine Community കള് ലോകത്ത് നിരവധി സ്ഥലങ്ങളില് പ്രവര്ത്തിക്കുന്നുണ്ട് എന്ന് അറിയാന് കഴിഞ്ഞിട്ടുണ്ട്. അതിലെ ഓരോ insight ഉം വിശദീകരിച്ചു കൊണ്ട് ആരെങ്കിലും എഴുതുമെങ്കില് അനേകര്ക്ക് അത് അത് പ്രയോജനപ്പെടുമെന്നതില് ഒരു തര്ക്കവുമില്ല. ആ കൃതിയെപ്പറ്റി മറ്റൊന്നും എനിക്ക് പറയാനില്ല, ഇത് വായിച്ചാലേ റെഡ്ഫില്ഡിന്റെ മറ്റു കൃതികള് മനസ്സിലാവുകയുമുള്ളൂ.
