Oneness and Oneness Consciousness - What it Means From the Higher Perspective
By Christine Hoeflich
There is a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding in the world around the meaning of the words "Oneness" or "Unity," including how the higher-level, spiritual benefits of Oneness are activated and attained (a couple of these benefits are: an exponential magnification in manifesting a common goal, a quantum leap in results). However, Oneness is currently viewed in a narrow sense, meaning that it is limited to the idea of belonging to and participating as part of some clearly defined, cohesive group or organization. (For example, being a part of a group meditation effort.) In this article I explain that this is a limited view of how Oneness consciousness actually works.
The idea of Oneness (and Oneness consciousness) is wildly popular in the spiritual arena, but because it is viewed in this limited way, it isn't as effective as it could be. For example, you may have received emails in the past asking for your participation in a global meditation for some worthy cause. The emails usually state that it doesn't matter where you are in the world, you only need to coordinate the date and time so that you meditate at the exact same moment as everyone else who participates. During that time, you will focus on a particular thought or vision because the idea goes, the more people who meditate at the same time with the same vision, the faster the vision will manifest.
In fact, I received such an email just this last week (the third week of May 2010). The email promoted a global effort to help restore the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. (At this time, the British Petroleum oil well is still gushing strong and a stopping of the leak is not yet imminent.)
According to the email, this restoration is to be accomplished through the "active participation" of group meditation and the "well known power of positive group intention." The synchronized meditation would create a "coherent global effort" and a "unified heart" that would "activate tremendous healing power" for the restoration of the health of the Gulf of Mexico.
Well, I can understand that this is one interpretation of how the Unified Heart (Unified Field) works (albeit a "3rd dimensional" one). I can also imagine that after participating in the global meditation, you may feel that you've "done your part." However, there is another way of viewing Unity, and that is from the higher perspective, the perspective of the higher self.
From the perspective of the higher self, you do not have to join any groups or meditate at the same time as others. You know that regardless of what time it is or what time zone you're living in, you are connected to everyone and everything else through your higher self. You know that as long as you follow through with your higher self's guidance in the moment you are acting for the highest good of all, you are coming from Oneness (Interconnectedness), you are acting from Divine Guidance. This is because your higher self is the bridge to Oneness, to Interconnectedness, to favorable synchronicity as well as universal cooperation.
You also realize that the Oneness you create within you by reconnecting with and integrating with your higher self is what really matters. (You have unity within when your lower "ego" consciousness is aligned with higher consciousness, the consciousness of your higher self.) The unity within you is what will create unity without. Cultivate oneness within yourself first, and then oneness in the world will be possible.
If we are to have a world-wide, synchronized outpouring of conscious intention (and remember that following through with action is absolutely critical), I can't think of a more effective way of accomplishing this than through each of us individually reconnecting with and integrating with the higher self. Rather than waiting for others to determine your "active participation" for you, actively participate by learning to distinguish your higher self's guidance from the collective conditioning and by following through with your higher self's guidance in the moment.
These aren't just some ideas or words I pulled out from a hat; this is what is required for you to awaken as well as to create the world your heart truly desires. Accessing oneness (and oneness consciousness) through your higher self is how you shed victim mentality, how you heal the wounds of the past, how you evolve, and how your life gets fulfilled. more...
