What is a smile? Everyone smiles. It is an intrinsic attribute of being human. Something “touches” us and we feel ourselves lighten up. Our mouth and face lighten up. Or, we can form a smile by just thinking about it, and activating the appropriate face muscles. A comical event can bring a smile to our face. An emotion of joy, of love does the same. The mind can decide to put on a smile” for no reason. But in doing so can initiate a feeling of happiness or joy – a positive uplifting response. Smiling can be a result of an emotion, or be a generator of a positive emotion – it works in both directions.
Smile related feelings or emotions can be termed prime expressions of consciousness. Meaning that those feelings which we have “in ourselves” that will generate a smile, or be generated by a smile, represent the same energy vibration of creation. That is a pretty audacious statement. Perhaps foolhardy. But this has been my experience and observations of the world around me. Think about times when we have worked with people who are happy and enjoy what they do. I would pose that the outcomes generally reflect that state of mind, as a positive end result.
There are certain vibrational frequencies that exist as prime expressions of Source Creation. A smile, as an expression of joy and happiness, can activate, manifest reality in our dimension. It is not just that expression on our face. As we evolve into expanded dimensions, we have greater access to the use of these frequencies. But this does not preclude their use in our third dimensional experience. They always are “here”, but working in what we would term the “background” of our world experience.
When we learn to function from that state of joy and gratitude, expressed outwardly with a smile, then we are in harmony with the ongoing creation happening in the Now. We can learn to assist in the manifestation of our own intentions. We always do that on a physical basis, a nuts and bolts, hammer a nail creation in the world. But starting off with an intention of a specific direction or desire, and doing that with joy and a smile, envisioning yourself in that same state of joy when it is completed, opens up a new vantage point. Creation can take place in a new way. Consider working with a dark cloud of anger or frustration over your head. Things typically go very wrong. Creation is only partially manifested with hammer and nails. There is an underlying expression of consciousness driving that manifestation. Which is more than just thinking with the mind, in the head. This is not to negate the experience and the importance of using the mind. It brings forth the due diligence that we must apply when working with creation.
The motion of the Now continually provides us with the raw material to experience this dimension, and all dimensions. Michelangelo said that the form he was carving already existed within the block of stone. All he was doing was liberating it. We are creating and at the same time we are not creating – we facilitate the process. And if we see ourselves in joy, smiling with that which is taking place, then we truly are in harmony with the Way. The action-less action. The attunement to the ever present expressions of creation. Being aware of this process taking place, gives us a much broader perspective on the world we live within. To recognize that brings a smile to the face. A joy to the heart. Gratitude for all that is, and all that continues to manifest before us. (See postings on the Seed Point) A.S. 8/14/22
