"Our greatest programming from the moment that
we are born on this planet revolves around behavior.

Our guilt exists because authority figures told us our
behavior had harmed other people. We had our hands
slapped when we did something wrong. When we were
old enough to understand language, the first word
we learned was "no."

"Don't do this, don't do that - - don't, don't,
don't!" and yet no master teacher has ever said
that our behavior made a bit of difference. They
comprehended that doing is not the creative force on this planet.

Even after we know about using consciousness to
create our realities, we occasionally get desperate
because we cannot see how our thoughts are
outpicturing, how they are bringing about the
changes we desire. So out of frustration we fall
back into doing.

That way of creating has always failed to create
permanent happiness and it will always fail.

We have been trained that the five senses give us
the only true picture of reality so it is easy for
us to see a building under construction and
believe that "creation" is under way. If that
were true, Jesus would have had to "construct"
the water as solid before he walked on it.

Consciousness is the reality on this plane. Doing
is the natural result that follows."

We all know this. I just like the way he put it. :-)
