The Power to Assign
December 31, 2008
“Pain is not to be taken lightly”
My wife spoke these words as we were exploring a pain in her body. Her guidance suggested that this was not a problem that could be treated by conventional means – but it was an opportunity for us to understand the nature of what causes pain.
So we paused to consider the situation. Often there is a tendency to link pain to an illness or ailment, as if the pain needs a remedy and that no further enquiry is required. Yet it is clear that we need to investigate the source of every instance of pain, knowing that it is an experience that has been created.
Once we understand the reason(s) for creating the experience then we know the right actions to take.
Extending this line of thinking, I could see that every experience is created for a reason. There is always power in what we assign to the experience. If we believe that our body needs pain in order for us to grow then we come to expect pain as a normal occurrence. And if we determine that our relationship to pain is beneficial then it can become something that we may relish. It depends on the purpose that we assign to pain.
Here is my personal relationship with pain – it is an indicator that I am incongruent with the normal level of energetic activity for my body at any given time. When I prepare myself for greater energetic activity then I can exceed that threshold with no discomfort. Therefore my relationship with pain is that it reminds me to be in total congruency with the reality that I choose to live.
That leads to an interesting question – what reality are you living right now? Is it your creation? Are you enjoying its power?
Here are some ways to ensure that you do:
- never take things at face value – be willing to explore and find meanings other than the obvious
- be aware that we assign power to everything in our life – and we can be conscious of doing that
- all our decisions contribute to our reality, so no decision can be taken lightly
- everything is created for a reason – discover what that is and you have its power right with you.

I travelled to Melbourne, Australia, in November 2008 to lead two courses on ‘The Creation of Health and Total Physical Awareness’. Both events were highly successful and exceeded my original intentions, which were to give people an understanding of how regeneration works and to have an energetic awareness of how reality is created.
Nov 24th-26th 2008
A 3 day course: the objective was to show people how to work with essence.
This course covered -
- awareness of the subtle nature of Energy
- awareness of the unique ways in which we source, attune to, and engage with Energy
- awareness of the effectiveness of what we do, and see how to enhance that just by shifting focus
- how to go deeply into the essence of others and relate to them with that perspective
- seeing what changes when we view ourselves as eternal and immortal beings
- understanding the energetic & consciousness shifts that take place when we meet with the Earth as an eternal and immortal being
- reorientating to life as eternal and immortal beings in an eternal and immortal place
- getting the sense of what it feels like to be totally unleashed – to know what it is to speak with power and authority
We focused on -
- INTEGRITY - the need to be present and attentive to whatever is happening. You cannot be focused unless you are energetically present.
- ATTUNEMENT - the ability to tune into energy frequency, to perceive the nuances of energy movement, and understand the relationship of everything in terms of energy.
- AWARENESS – the ability to understand the potential of what can/needs to happen next in any situation. This determines the ordering of every movement, knowing that there is a timing to it all, so that we act when there is a cause for action and not because we wish it.
Everything done during the course showed us how to act with integrity. We saw that each person had a way of being that needed to be recognised and valued. One example was in watching Laila sway her body when she spoke her poetry. It was a lyrical dance movement, in which she emanated waves of energy that kept on moving out even when she finished speaking. Her intention was to shower people all around the world with love and happiness.
The course showed that, by being attentive to energy movement, we could go deeply into experiences with each other. Allowing us to engage what has been waiting to be recognised and appreciated, and realising that what we seek to hold back is really the essence of what allows us to go forward.
Here are key ideas from the course
- That we see every emotion as a call for energy movement, so that we are not entrapped by our relationship to energy or overwhelmed by its power.
- That by going deeply into energy we can understand where it comes from and what it is for, so that we do not create false realities about it.
- That we are not focused on people but on energy movement (takes away the drama).
- That, by attuning to energy, we give consciousness to it and can precipitate its movement, so that we always know how to produce the most profound outcomes.
- That we have affinity to all creation, and can facilitate changes more easily and swiftly because of the depth of our caring and the integrity with which we act.

Nov 29th-30th 2008
This course showed us that we have many unique gifts waiting to be discovered. There was a lot of fun in seeing who people really are. Seeing Andriana pass on her newly discovered gift to Bouthaina was amazingly powerful: it affirmed for Andriana that energy is tangible and that her gifting of it is real and able to be passed on to others, who in turn are strengthened by the experience.
We also exploded the popular myths that are spoken as if they are true – for example, that we cannot change reality. Even when we tried to speak the myths we could feel that they are energetically restrictive and untrue.
We explored reality creation from a physical and energetic perspective. We saw that to have a shared experience requires us to go deeply into it with others, that we can reveal our totality rather than exchange a surface connection. To really get at what we are all here to share requires us to be totally unlimited, totally uncontained, and totally unleashed.
Some course experiences leave attendees thinking that they have not fully understood or taken on board all the teachings. This adventure showed people that they are already where they need to be and they only need to realise/own their mastery.
Our experience is summed up in these words -
You don’t believe it applies to you – but it does. When you get the feeling that you have arrived, that all of this applies to you, then you will get it and not lose it.

The Abundance (part 3)
December 16, 2008
On connecting deeply with people
You may have seen shows like ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and ‘Make Me a Supermodel’, and probably observed that the contestants are generally wrapped up in their own self image so that they never really get to connect with or understand their fellow competitors. These shows are often characterised by the contestants’ self doubt and criticism of one another.
Well that is how it used to be, for in recent weeks I’ve noticed a remarkable phenomenon. It involves engaging with people at a very deep level. Now to do this requires a willingness to be open to others AND fully meet them, with a level of recognition and understanding that literally transforms them in the process.
I’ve done this with people that I’ve only just been introduced to, and within a few minutes I can give them a knowing of themselves that brings them to tears. The emotion that they feel is the joy at being seen and honoured. Below is a videoclip from a recent workshop where people were exploring the essence of each other.
Ah, you say, but can these experiences permanently change people’s thoughts about themselves and undo the energy matrix that entraps them?
My reply is that when you connect deeply with another then you bypass any personality programming: you bypass all their restrictive views of life. It’s like going to their core and meeting their essence and calling upon that to be more fully expressed.
An alchemical reaction then takes place.
As the initiator of the movement, you grow more perceptive about who people are and can become, so that your energy automatically connects with people at this deep level. And the people that feel that deep connection are inspired to make conscious decisions to express what now has been touched within them.
The Abundance is now on a wildfire mission – of having you go to the cause of why people are here in this world at this time, of perceiving the power and the beauty that you find standing in front of you, and languaging that beauty so that it knows itself even more, becoming more real because you have dared to touch it.
As you make this your new way of connecting people to the totality of themselves, they realise that there is more to live into and to become. Beauty becomes a language that stirs our depths.
