Asandra has a regular column in our sister US Magazine, MerlianNews.com. The article below appeared in her monthly newsletter titled Cosmos: Inspiration for the Awakened Soul; to which I am a subscriber. I am grateful for author's permission to publish it in PS Magazine.

Art images are examples of Asandra's inspired work: "The intention in this work is to suggest an expanded realm wherein our consciousness not only already dwells but also innately comprehends. Each painting can be experienced for both its' surface beauty as well as being a visual meditation reflecting larger, abstract realities."

 

Many years ago in New York, while enthusiastically developing my spiritual gifts, I studied with several wizened teachers. One in particular, shared the following Sacred Law:

 

Anything you can vividly imagine,
ardently desire,
sincerely believe in,
and enthusiastically act upon,
must inevitably come to pass.

 

This universal law was said to contain the elements of earth (action), air (imagination), fire (desire), and water (belief), which create the alchemy of manifestation. It is becoming increasingly more apparent that in order to create a higher reality, one must see it, think it, deeply believe in it, and be willing to act upon it. I find for myself that there is a general weariness at the thought of having to coerce something into being. It seems to be a contradiction to the natural unfoldment of one's authentic destiny path. My belief is that this path, if it is a true soul-based direction, will unfold with grace and ease.

 

But in order to get to that place, sometimes we have to first work through the energetic obstructions that interfere with the manifestation of a vision. I have often seen with my clients, as well as with myself, that this can be a demanding, yet necessary exercise. Sometimes we become stuck in looking at the outer picture, becoming frustrated when not seeing the desired results. Spirit has often said that a strictly linear viewpoint limits our ability to experience an expanded perspective.

 

In fact, they have explained that the outer form we experience with our five senses is occurring through a kind of "time delay." In other words, the fleshed out forms that we experience on a daily basis are the result of energetic thinking that may have taken place some time ago. Our higher consciousness can envision something (with tremendous clarity at times) that may not come into form for quite a while in linear-based time. So the present moment reality is the manifest form resulting from whatever "creating" has led up to it thus far. And our true self is constantly creating the next forms on a higher plane.

 

So what is "real" then? The present manifest form, the energetic process that led up to it, or what lies in our consciousness right now on a higher plane? Perhaps they are all relevant and as we evolve into our expanded selves, there are times when we can hold the energy of all of these states of being simultaneously. This is a movement into the multi-dimensionality of our true state of being as an awakened self.

 

When all of these levels are integrated, they become a part of the energetic mandala of a creative path. "Creative" specifically implies the reality each one of us is consciously or unconsciously bringing into materialized form. In order to be aware of our true path, it is essential to have an expansive view of our unfolding "creation" while it is happening.

 

To maintain that level of awareness, of course, isn't easy for us forgetful humans. And yet, that is the crux of the matter. The fusion of these interconnected levels of awareness takes us beyond the artificial time of clocks and calendars. It is a liberation from the familiar, and often unsatisfying, effort to fulfill one's desires based on an ordinary construct of time and space.

 

Envisioning your path from a multidimensional perspective is to become attuned to and aware of your own sacred mandala. It is a part of the larger, universal mandala of creation. As the Sacred Law states, if you can vividly imagine . . .
