First Steps: Opening to the Bigger Picture

Driving south over Sepulveda Pass on the 405, as I reached the top and started down, the city of Los Angeles was laid out before me. I was going to LAX to pick up the woman who led and channelled for the group where I first learned about the Bigger Picture. I started thinking about how everyone was going to learn what I was learning. This evolutionary shift was global, but how was it possible to reach all these people?

It was in the early days (2003) and I was still pretty much in my mind – thinking. What I knew at the time, in terms of spreading the word, was door-to-door solicitation, church planting, or ads in the mass media. The whole idea felt hopeless…no one would listen let alone care about what I was opening to. They were too busy with their own lives, only knowing what they were taught from birth, not realizing there was so much more available.

As the years went by, my awareness gradually shifted from that kind of tunnel-vision into a greater awareness of the Bigger Picture. Third Dimensional reality has belief systems that are applicable only to it. The conditioning, or programming, projects it on all it considers as a reality. I chose to let go of the 3D perspectives of my human self even as I allowed my Soul Self to become my primary operating system.

It took me awhile to really get this…I was programmed from birth as to how to be a human in this world. Well, even before birth if you consider that our DNA brings with it its own programming. We are born into a family, live in a culture, enter a system of education, worship in a religious tradition. We slowly learn about politics, nationality, and all the ways in which we are to think and act. Who we need to be and what we need to do to belong. And at that time, even right now, those beliefs are limited and limiting.

Yes, there is a level of freedom along the way, depending on socioeconomic status, geographical location, race, gender, and access to opportunities to grow. Yet, in the 3D paradigm, this freedom, these opportunities to expand are mostly based in the human mind – which is based in fear and suffering. I spent decades searching for ‘the Truth’…something my mind could say ‘This is It! If you believe this and follow the rules, you will be happy.” I went to school, gathered post-graduate degrees, explored different Christian theologies, lived in different areas of the country, and even came out as lesbian. And it was never enough…I always sensed there was something more. I was looking for something, some understanding or experience that would offer me possibilities big enough to hold all of me without limitation. What I didn’t know at the time was that my Soul Self was waiting for the perfect moment when my mind would be open enough to begin to accept the Bigger Picture.

And that’s the key, isn’t it? Feeling into the possibility that there might be something MORE. Allowing our well-programmed minds to be loose enough to experience, to feel the hope, love, compassion and freedom of something different, something bigger, something expansive. We are so programmed to dismiss or judge anything that doesn’t fit into our mind’s perspective as wrong or bad. It often takes a situation (or many) that shakes us up, gets the mind wiggling, unable to figure it out – sinking into depression or anxiety, hopelessness. Then, perhaps, there is room and willingness to feel, to begin to experience the presence of our Soul Self, the possibilities of new perspectives.

As I continued to choose to open and expand into MORE, I also read voraciously (a lot). I explored websites, podcasts, and videos as they became more available. My human self, my mind, was receiving information about higher perspectives, a greater awareness of other realities, lessening its anxiety and fear. This, with the growing experiences of joy, satisfaction, love, excitement and peace, kept me going as I released the 3D programming that no longer served me. My connection with my Soul Self opened more. My mind was more willing to let go of the old rules of belonging, of who I was, my identity. I gradually realized that I am a Soul here in human form, having human experiences. A Soul, with a direct and constant connection with the divine for support and guidance. A Soul who agreed to be here on earth at this time to be part of a great awakening, a natural shift from the suffering and fear of 3D into the expansive joy and love of Unity Consciousness.

I was ready, in 2000, for something different. Oh, my ‘steel-trap’ mind had lots to say (from fear). But the relief I felt! I was no longer alone. No longer had to figure all this out, try to make things happen for me or others, to find love out there. And I didn’t have to go door-to-door or place ads in mass media to share my excitement with others! Part of that, of course, is due to the advances in technology that let us connect with or send information to anyone in seconds.

Even more so is my understanding of the Bigger Picture…the metaphysics of divine creation. Expansion means change, simply put. Our minds tend to reject it unless it understands that change serves us in some way. Third Dimension science tends to relegate metaphysics to the woo-woo category. I don’t presume to understand this in any depth, yet I know that as we let go of our old 3D beliefs, thoughts and behaviours, we take in more light, raise our vibration, our level of consciousness, within our selves. We begin to affect those around us energetically, shaking them up, loosening their minds. As more and more of us choose to open to creating heaven within ourselves, that higher energy will gradually encompass the planet, lifting all of humanity and Mother Earth into higher and higher levels of consciousness. It might take a generation or two…yet we can already see some of the new consciousness sprouts from time to time. It’s already happening – by divine plan – whether or not we are aware.

It’s a question of whether or not you are ready: To let go of your old programming and allow your Soul Self to guide you into a higher awareness of what’s going on. To support you as you grieve what was, what you thought was real, and open to a new expansive way of being. To remember who you are as a Soul and continue waking up, expanding into Unity Consciousness. It’s happening…are you ready to step into your divine purpose for being here?

    More great thoughts on what I call being “reborn”. But I have a question/suggestion: Some of your ideas are expressed in words that I don’t readily comprehend. Like 3rd dimension. Or Soul Self. I know that you have described those concepts in previous writings but it would be helpful to have a one or two sentence reminder of what those phrases mean.

    And why do you feel that the 3d world or life is based on fear and suffering? While there is a lot of it, there is also a lot of fun and happiness. Certainly not the type that is achieved through being reborn, but still — the 3d world has goods and bads to it.

      Great questions, Dan. My first thought is…Let’s Talk! My response would be too lengthy for this area, so schedule a free conversation with me or join me for an hour on Expanding Consciousness Conversations for an hour. Or, search terms such as ‘what is 3D’ or ‘difference between 3D and 5D’ will also give you more information. I love the way you interact with what I share…and want to know more! Thank you –

      And, you are right in understanding the process as similar to the Christian idea of being ‘reborn’. What I am speaking of is simply from a higher perspective in the Bigger Picture. Thank you for that awareness/insight.
