Implementing your vision

The first month of success was looking at what success was and what we received, how it was taught to us, how we framed it, and what worked in that and what didn’t work in that for us. The second month is how you get a new vision for success. How do you change what was the vision and amplify the nature of the vision to being something greater for our expression and understanding of that and how to get the new vision, how to go into ceremony, how to move beyond the mental constraints, emotional constraints, any kind of limiter or blocker to receiving the new understanding or having the new understanding emerge.

And now, since we’ve done that, we’re now going to go into the implementation, the implementation of your vision, your understanding of success. And this whole month will follow a set pattern that we’ve been working with and a set framework that really applies to anything that we’re trying to do in our life. It’s not just a, you know, something about success, but it’s about how we’re successful in the implementation of anything.

So the first thing we want to know is that when we’re going to do anything new in our lives, anything, right, it’s going to be a learning process. So we’re not going to expect ourselves up front at the very beginning of learning something new that we’re going to understand exactly how to do it all and that it’s going to be easy for us. The second is that we know that as we learn something, just like we’ve learned anything in our lives, we learn it little by little.

This ties into what Justin was saying about trusting the universe as the unexpected happens and know that with the intention and the greater plan that things will continue to evolve and grow in the direction of the intention that’s been set. This happens little by little by little. The third is being really clear in our intentions because those are the core codes to the creative powers that you have, the co-creative powers with the universe.

And we do that with spirit. We do that with our own spirit and we do it with the extraordinary support of just spirit in general. We know that there’s a transformation that takes place within us.

So we take this expanded vision. We start to set intentions. And these are the intentions that we’re going to have to live with.

This is where we form decision. Down in the Amazon, the first test I faced was the test of decision. Am I really fulfilling this intention or not? And decision is something that once you make that decision, you stick with it, regardless of the kinds of obstacles or difficulties that we face.

Now, it’s not only rooted that you have to stay with that specific intention forever. You can adjust the intention as you learn, as you grow through the process of fulfilling intention. So we can set intention and even our understandings about success can evolve and modify and we can then adjust accordingly as we move through the process of fulfilling the intentions.

So we want to be within our decision and aware of the process as everything continues to change and help guide that into new decision and understanding with our intention. In different ways for each of us, we address our own society, which we know is competitive. And so certain aspects of success require the willingness to compete, whether it’s in a labor market or economically or in athletics.

There are these different ways in our society that there’s a nature of competition and measurement of success, not the broadest measurement of that concept, but more narrowly focused. And so not only does the intention require the decision to bring it into fulfillment, it also may require the willingness to compete for that decision. What I love about sanctuary in relationship to competition is that we can address the competition not in a win-lose scenario, but in one where we seek balance and harmony, grounded orientation as we continuously experience healing through the nature of that process.

And that can ultimately look like from an external perspective as winning when it is ultimately the fulfillment of your intentions and the fulfillment of your understanding of success, this vision associated with it. Whenever we want to learn anything new, we do it within the framework of sanctuary, which starts in the framework of the all, the universe, the divine, the godliness of all creation. And it starts in the nature of our co-creation.

Tenet one is that the universe, source, god, spirit, as one united phenomena is within us, through us, and all around us. And so, as we express these intentions, we express with an understanding that we are engaging, we’re engaging where the universe can hear us within us and communicate that through the entirety of consciousness itself. To be able to express these intentions, think of them as core codes of implementation and change in our lives.

I love the idea of starting with the all. I’ve said it many times, but I like to say it to even hear myself recognize it that the trust, what I found to be most trustworthy in the whole universe is the whole universe. There’s so many experiences that test trust.

Anytime I take a narrower point of view, I just get reasons for why things are happening and also reasons to give up on faith and trust. I think of those as illusions to a much greater process that we’re a part of. And the idea and the reason for an expanded vision of success, not a narrow vision, but an expanded concept of success, something that is enriching and fulfilling, something that is continuously supportive of our growth and development and thriving in our lives so that we can experience life this way.

So, I love this idea that this is a co-creation. The way I imagine that co-creation is that if you are like a light bulb emanating through the space-time, that that emanation is a communication to spirit, to consciousness, to greater universal intelligence. As that intelligence is communicated, it allows for there to be the transference of meaning.

As much as you know the meaning, the universe knows the meaning because you give the universe that meaning. There’s something that seems so sacred to me about that interface, that ability to communicate with the universe as being body made of universe and have the rest of the universe, the whole thing, now know that communication. Just like when something communicates with you and you really, really get it, like lossless, perfect communication.

We’re engaging and asking spirit, the whole spirit, the spiritedness of the whole universe to be in harmonious, balanced, grounded, oriented co-creation. I love this aspect of this within us because it does not require external permission or licensing or acceptance from another to do this. I don’t have to go outside myself to anything else for this to be real for me inside me.

And what I love about that is that that is empowering and that’s a great way to know ourselves. That’s already a successful way to know ourselves that we can from within us communicate directly with the whole universe and express deep meaning and associate, align with this great power, this great capacity to bring into manifested reality, to allow this evolutionary emergence of you like a blossoming to occur. When I was younger, I was a kid and I was growing.

The way I understood growing wasn’t something I was doing, but something happening to me. I wish I had understood then what a miracle it was that I was growing. Like I didn’t have to think about doing it like playing a sport or doing something or riding a bike, but actually I was doing it.

I was making my bones longer and I was changing my mind. What an amazing concept. I want us to understand it from within.

We’re utilizing that idea that we are empowered to manifest these intentions for ourselves into the world and we’re going to do it through us. Like it’s within us and we’re going to do it through us and it’s going to manifest and it will represent all around us. Tenet one, in through and all around with all spirit.

When I look at these things, I try to change in myself. Most of the time I don’t know how to do it. Most of the time I feel limited in some way, but then I think to myself if I had the help of all spirit of the whole universe, I think these things can happen.

I really do. I believe through and through that these things that I want to change within myself are possible. So I love this.

I loved it from day one in shamanic practice. You don’t do it alone. You do it with extraordinary help, a scale of help that is expanding the imagination even bigger about how much help this universe already had in it before we were ever born or created to be here.

It’s such a magnificent idea to be in co-creation but supported by so much more. I like to think there’s so much. I need less than 0.0000000001% of it to be able to do what I need to do because there’s so much.

I think of spirit as the creative force of this universe and there’s enough spirit to create trillions and trillions of stars and billions and billions and billions of galaxies and someday there will be trillions and trillions of galaxies. So to think of that amount of creativity, that amount of energy, that amount of intelligent awareness and to know the supernatural in this way and to know that that is the intelligent design of our bodies and our spirit where we are united with the spirit and to know that that help is there for us. I want to get really comfortable with that idea.

I want to get really comfortable with asking for that amount of help. For ayah ceremonies I say we want a little bit of plant medicine and the right amount of spirit which is actually a tiny amount of spirit compared to the whole thing but then you want the whole universe to help. You’re saying to the universe, hey be gentle.

Be gentle in this moment. We don’t need more than that. Be gentle.

There’s plenty. It is infinite eternal. So an infinite amount is unmeasurable.

It’s infinite and I like to think that the universe can create not created but that the universe is living creation is capable of creating in real time like right now creating and now creating and now creating and now creating. It’s capable of creating in co-creation. So as you are creating the universe can be creating within through and all around you and that the nature of that creation is infinite and eternal.

I already think just setting up this way is successful. We’re already in the definition of success. We’ve already set a paradigm that is successful by nature, by definition, the architecture that we’re using.

Now in this co-creation in infinite time eternal space we have this phenomena of evolution and that just to me to mean that things take their time. Now we’ve measured that time in clock time in calendar time and things just take their time and so we have to become aware of that and accepting of the amount of time that things take. Things just take their time.

I don’t know about how you’ve experienced this. I’ve experienced this as always wanting things typically faster than they’ve happened and sometimes trying to keep them from happening a little bit longer. Both like procrastination kind of vibe with it like no I don’t want to do that yeah don’t know that’s okay now and then others going like why does it happen? Why does it happen? Why does it happen? Why does it happen? So inside me I want to align those things.

I want to work with that and get into this divine flow that I understand that certain things are just going to take as long as they take. Especially about these intentions. Certain aspects of intentions that I’ve had have manifested in seconds nanoseconds maybe real time maybe as I’m intending them to happen and some of my intentions are time-based intentions that I think may take a long time.

I don’t know how long but they may. I know I’ve set intentions for beyond the lifetime of body. There’s this phenomena where deep in our consciousness we express this stuff to the universe that isn’t even always in our conscious mind.

I used to call that and still do sometimes saying some deep things to the universe or some deep things to God like you catch yourself you went oops I said some deep things. Now you live with those deep things like when I said that I wanted to grow and and evolve spiritually and I wanted to to be conscious of conscious evolution and the evolution of consciousness and then you’re like yeah I think I said that. So when we set these intentions we know that some things are short periods of times and some things are long periods of time.

Maybe some things are forever periods of time. So we need to find our patience with that and get into our flow state. You know that metaphor of you’re on the car trip and the kids are going are we there yet are we there yet are we there yet and every single time they say that and the time it takes them to say that you’re getting closer to there yet but we might not perceive it that way and that’s the nature of our perception.

For over 15 years of the plant medicine practice I thought it’s just not working. It’s working not working working not working working not working and then sanctuary happened and I said yeah it all worked it all worked just as planned. If I had known the plan beforehand I probably wouldn’t have intended it I probably wouldn’t have done it.

When it happened it worked just fine. I was like oh this is this we are always leading to this how I didn’t know that. So we need to be patient.

With healing I call it being a patient patient. Once I know I need healing now I’m a patient even if I’m healing myself I’m my own patient. It’s funny that we use the word patient and patience which sounds so similar to be patient about it and in the Amazon when you go through healing you just do very little so you got to be very patient.

You just lie down in bed and rest as the body heals as you heal. So with the all of spirit with the all of the universe within with direct communication where you give yourself the permission by doing it we set these intentions and we know we’re going to live with them and that by living with them we’re already being successful and by having an extraordinary amount of support and help we’re already being successful and we know some things will manifest really quickly and some things will take longer and we want to be able to see that right now we are being successful and that we will continue the entirety of the time to be successful to the manifestation of some of the greater intentions. One of my intentions is to live successfully continuously through the entirety of the process of life including what people call death that I call birth that transition and including that transition to be a very successful transition into a continuation of sanctuary as I change form and so that is the whole life and I want to continuously learn and continuously grow spiritually and continuously learn deeper understanding of knowledge and awareness la sabiduria divina as Julio called it the divine knowledge which was all knowledge and so with an intention like that of success you see there’s no conclusion it’s not an achievement and it’s over but it’s rather a living directionality and a nature and a way that will keep evolving and growing over time and I know it’s going to be the exact amount of time it’s going to be there are some things that are intentions that really do have a finite moment associated with them things that will happen and come to the end and that is also an aspect of success like I don’t know maybe you’re baking cookies and you want them to turn out great and so you’re successful in having made these amazing cookies but they come to a point they’re done let me move on or the successful launch of a project or reaching a certain milestone in your life so I want us to understand this pliability to time and the amount of time it takes to make certain kinds of changes I started working with these understandings around the patterns of self-sabotage and fear and there’s a whole module in the library about it but the implementation of those took years to rewire my neuro net to get over my fears to deal with the PTSD emanating in the om of our consciousness from all the ways and youth that those patterns got created in the first place that takes time we utilize our plant medicines to create these neuroplastic windows and the neuroplastic windows we use our intention and spirit to guide the shift change and development in our neuro net and little by little by little we see that we are successful in shifting and changing the nature and ways of how we think we must remember that our mind is not dissociated from our matter so yes there is psychology and yes there is psychiatry and yes the psychology is within the brain itself it’s not independent of it and so as we go to change how we think it also requires changing how the electricity flows through our brain like the intention of having the mind be a continuously evolving improving tool in my life I set the intention for my mind to be a continuously improving tool just in setting the intention to be successful with the mind creates all of this this change that has to take place change associated with our imagination change associated with how we relate to the uncertainties of the future changes to the stories that we tell ourselves and the stories we tell ourselves about the stories told to us I was looking at some media this morning and so I’m seeing the media and it’s telling me a story I was looking at the media to study how media is written and I’m looking at it and I say okay well I was looking at political media and I go okay I know that that’s not what’s happening not that’s what’s happening it’s being presented to me that that’s what’s happening I say well maybe that’s what happened but the interpretation is not what’s happening that’s the story I tell myself about the story being told to me in your mind you have how you relate to yourself if I want my mind to be a better and better tool I need to learn how to relate to myself better and better with my mind now that requires changing patterns about how we relate to ourselves that takes time little by little by little by little by little we want to give it time and recognize that our intentions in certain ways take time some have milestones and some have long duration and we go into ten and three self-healing self-harmonizing self-balancing self-grounding self-orienting now we get in to spirit the infinite eternal to the spirits the individual expressions of the energies that combine sum up the totality of the spirit but we do recognize that certain influences of spirit are influencing us we give them names we call them the spirits like we say the spirit of the wind even though the spirit of the wind is like the breath of the whole spirit in that moment that you’re experiencing it’s just a little bit of it so we want the help of the spirits we call on the help of the spirits in the intelligence of sanctuary to bring the spirits the exact ones to help us with the nature of the fulfillment of the intention this is always a question I had in working with spirits which is how do you know you’re invoking the right ones it’s always confused by that and then I would get scared of like oh no I don’t want to invoke the wrong ones or if I don’t invoke the right ones the healing isn’t going to happen right this taps into the divine intelligence of the universe and sanctuary to use the exact spirits the right ones it’s a powerful invocation of exactitude and precision so we want a continuous flow we invoke and call on a continuous flow of the right support of helping spirits for the success and fulfillment of our intentions what a powerful concept so let’s invoke that from the heart that in this creating co-creative expression with the universe that we can co-create and receive of the spirits that are helpful and supportive that in its own right is successful and that they help us in all of the ways seen and unseen known and unknown to help us manifest our understanding of success as we do this and time goes on we see that we adjust our understandings as life continues to evolve and grow around us and that we create continuous success through that support success in our relationships our relationships our spirit it’s the relating that we’ve talked about and there’s a whole module on relating i loved about shamanic practice is that it started in relating to something greater than the self spirits and in that relating a recognition of co-creation support and help just like with universe god source spirit so the ceremony in ayahuasca starts with calling to the ayahuasca the ceremony of san pedro starts with the calling or invocation of san pedro and the petition of support and help and this takes us to our our use of our plant medicines as continuous support for the creation of our success sometimes our our intentions and feelings can seem overwhelming sometimes they can seem like like it’s just gonna how do we even get there i just don’t even know sometimes i feel that way about living the totality of my life and i think like wow just getting to the age i am now is quite whelming if i’m going to do this for another decades and decades and decades that’s pretty whelming experience to even imagine and i want to see that in this co-participation of living it i am living life i am giving myself to life i am expressing and experiencing life in the nature of the co-creation and i’m going to do it in a flow state this evolutionary flow state that when i count time when i count it not that that’s the way time is time is this flow this evolutionary flow state but when i count time i give it you know however you want to fractionalize the idea of time like nanoseconds or the nano nanoseconds like really little measurements of time decades are a little bit longer all right what i want to do is i want to understand my progression in that measurement of time in a way that is successful and supportive so the implementation of the success in very very very small amounts of time so that it’s not overwhelming like when you have a big task you’re going to do it step by step by step by step by step by step by step so if you just focus on the step that you’re doing right now it’s not overwhelming and that’s a successful use of our measurement of time the time is the flow state our measurement of time helps us orient in our flow state we want to successfully use that measurement of time so that we are continuously recognizing a successful second minute hour day week month year etc all the way to successful life this also works for when we want to accomplish things sometimes we want to accomplish things that are really complicated take a lot of time multi-step and that can feel overwhelming too so this works really well to break it down and do step by step by step by step where each step can be focused on and be fulfilled successfully and that the summation of that ultimately is a successful representation as we do this we’re going to confront the nature of many pressures many many many many many many every single pressure that could possibly manifest will manifest there will be so many new things to learn there will be so many things competing for your attention there will be so many different ways that this complex life that we live pushes on us and so we want to continuously ten and three that continuously self-healing harmonizing balancing grounding and orienting that’s continuously balancing and harmonizing that is continuously orienting healing as it’s continuously grounding we don’t want to let any any any any any any of those pressures force us to change our direction if you change your direction you decide that from the heart not the pressure changes the direction for you the pressures may illuminate for me a reason for me to change my direction and decision but not because of the pressure because of the awareness and the knowledge oh this is the direction i should go this is a better direction for me i’m going to choose this direction sanctuary allows us we don’t have to fight it we don’t have to push back on it we don’t have to struggle with it you don’t have to do those things we just have to continuously heal harmonize balance ground and reorient heal harmonize balance ground and reorient ground heal harmony harmonize and balance the energies and the forces as we cultivate success we call that staying the course we’re never throwing in the towel or never quitting as we hold the intention of the success as we live it and are the intention of the new vision of success as we communicate and broadcast this decision to the whole universe right we are asking that the spirit and spirit support and help in every possible way including the harmonizing balancing grounding and reorienting including the healing the pressures are okay often in my experience the way i experienced it i don’t know how you do but the way it happened to me is that the pressures would come and then i would create fear in the face of greater pressure i would get scared and then in the fear we lose our clarity and we lose our awareness and we lose our decision in the fear we become reactory reactionary so we want to turn fear off we want to turn the fear off and down we want to understand that we deserve and are worthy of our success but we have every right to co-create and bring it into manifested reality we have every right to experience it we have every right within universe source god spirit to live our greatest potential and possibility and make that 100 real and reality and it takes some time for those of us that experienced opposition forces trying to flip us and make us think we don’t deserve that and make us think we’re not as magnificent as we truly are to repattern that out of our psyche i’ve said the hardest part about any kind of trauma or abuse which we’ve all experienced is that one thing has to do it to you wants to know how to do it to yourself that’s how fast we learn so i only needed to be told one bad word about me once to be able to tell bad words about me forever that’s just a hard no that’s what we have to repattern so we don’t let those forces get us down especially the ones that are created by our own brain now you might find your brain is really creative my brain was capable of saying those things to myself so i’m creating the thoughts in the voices of others and it’s make it sound like someone else was talking to me that’s a non-psychological thing i’m not the only one capable of that that was well mapped that we as people have the capacity so it’s important to understand that these forces that create these pressures that can make us feel these fears that the action with them is 10 and 3 and to turn the fear off just like ceremony right and then approaching it little by little by little by little little by little cannot be overstated i went to julio when i was in early ayahuasca apprenticeship and i was really scared like really scared i could did not know what to do with the fear there was just so much i was creating i didn’t even know i was creating i thought the fear was outside me and that i was just freaking but it was actually just all my own internal creation it took me a few months even to get the courage to tell julio i was experiencing it he knew anyway but for me to come to him and tell him and he goes ah here’s drink your ayahuasca blow him a pot to smoke on your chest go bathe in the river come back drink your ayahuasca that was his response i thought to myself that’s all i get like that that’s the help i get for this terrible fear i have inside me but sure enough in just you know a few weeks three four weeks three four months later it was completely different paradigm and we had just done it little by little ceremony by ceremony little by little so now i’m super grateful for the simplicity of that teaching it basically was telling me dude it’s no big deal so feel all this fear so it’s no big deal let’s deal with it little by little by little it’s such a strange realization to come to that the greatest opposing forces were ones i created myself the greatest limitations were ones i created myself inside myself in my own thoughts and feelings and they had nothing to do with any real external imposed limitation at all so desperately do i wish that a teacher had been able to help me understand earlier in my life i wish i had some way earlier in my life to understand that i was just doing that i’m grateful that what we had was the best we had but it would have been so much nicer to even you know 15 years ago no you’re just making that up yourself you’re making up your own limitations when i look at it in the grand scheme of things i think wow 15 years to come to that awareness and understanding that will now help me for trillions trillions and trillions and trillions of years of being spirit and soul not just alive this body but this body and every moment that comes after it all the time beyond being alive so not only do i get it for the rest of my life because i learned but for all time and you get to too deep so as part of our success i want us to go deep deep inside ourselves and bring into the light of our own consciousness the awareness of the depth of these patterns that we’ve created within ourselves that are like phantasms in our own consciousness so that we’re not limited by them anymore we can just turn off our fear and start using all of that capacity we have in our mind and in our consciousness for our success trust the whole universe trust our co-creation trust our love trust our soul trust our shungo our core energy body our light body trust our ability to create manifest and co-create trust in god and deep faith deep deep faith deep faith in the whole process deep faith in the all of the universe deep faith within our own intentions deep faith in our own co-creation not about some imaginary externalization but something that is pure knowledge within that over time helps shape the reality that we live now in my life i’ve experienced many many external pressures they were not created by me but the most limiting ones were created by me the external pressures beyond me i got through little by little by little so we don’t let those change our course we don’t let those change our path we turn off our fear we learn to go deep inside to where we find these self-limiting aspects and let’s heal those just by letting breath madison intention love god spirit into that part of us where we’ve gotten tense or we put fear there or we are echoing in our own that anxiety and concern and just little by little by little by little turn off the self-internal limitation this is an extremely subtle expression this is the gentlest self-love and care we could possibly imagine soothing within us where we have limited ourselves imagine little quantum interactions little of the the the tiniest tiniest not even matter yet just almost vibrational states being part of consciousness and that instead of patterning into limitation and fear they just pattern into neutrality and groundedness and allowance and then from there create there’s something to me so elegant about that idea of energy that expression of the subtlest aspect of us being allowed to be free and loved and to allow us the totality of our potentiality and capacity let’s use the next month and then the rest of our lives to bring into manifested reality to bring into co-created truth our vision of success thank you guys very much big hug to everybody let’s do this together and i wish you all the very very very best rest of your day
