Alaya Presents Ishvara's Spiritual Teachings

Accessing The Unmanifest


Synopsis
of Teaching

 • If you continue to rely upon physical validation, you keep everything in the manifest, and you can never really access the rest of what you are, because so much of what you are will never be able to manifest in a way that the intellect can recognize.
But lucky for us, the body does not rely totally on the intellect; you can resonate with something that you cannot reckon with the mind.

The true, core inspiration that comes to us is the unmanifest. It sets a seed that is in the process of materializing in some way. If we don't sidetrack it or dilute it, it eventually becomes manifest.

That is a mistake people make: they will talk about something, but they don't let go of it; they sort of keep waiting for something to change, waiting to see that it's gone. That is not letting go.

So one way I support people is holding their life in this realm of higher possibility that has not yet become manifest.

 

 

In the bigger picture of the world, of Life, I look at our presence as holding open the door, keeping open the Space of possibility, which others in their moment of need may tune into and receive benefit from. We need not ever know that this benefit is happening, but it cannot happen unless we are open to possibilities that are unseen.

If you continue to rely upon physical validation, you keep everything in the manifest, and you can never really access the rest of what you are, because so much of what you are will never be able to manifest in a way that the intellect can recognize. There is just no language for it. The intellect is trying to see something for which it has no experience, no language, no interpretation. If you seek physical validation, you will keep missing it because it won't reveal itself to you in that manner.

The unmanifest can be sensed in what is happening. When you are allowing, your life works better. You realize that things that could have happened to you, didn't happen. Or if something is happening to you, you realize that it could have been much worse.

Now, you don't want to have the attitude that because you are connected, because you are aware, nothing is ever going to happen to you. But when you are aware, when you are not holding onto separation or resistance, things will happen in a more timely way. Your car may get a flat tire, but you will discover it while your car is in your own driveway, where you are better able to get help. Or when you find yourself stuck in the snow, you may discover that there is help nearby.

I've seen this over and over. Because I am being totally present in Is-ness, what is needed is always here. I don't rely on it or expect it, but it is here. So allowing and presence do not keep stuff from happening to you, but when it does happen, it seems to do so in a better light. If you become upset about a situation, or start judging yourself and making yourself wrong, you put yourself into a lower frequency where you don't get the help.

Your senses cannot see the unmanifest aspect of The Consciousness. But lucky for us, the body does not rely totally on the intellect; you can resonate with something that you cannot reckon with the mind.

The capacity to use or embrace the unmanifest has not been developed. So one lives a life of moving towards it, towards possibility, and at the higher edge of your existence you are always embracing The Consciousness in its higher frequencies. If you could not do that, you could not live, because that is what really empowers the human existence, and it is all unseen. We speak in terms of "manifest" and "unmanifest" because, as of yet, we don't have the neural pathways that can run freely in the higher frequencies like they do in the manifest.

The true, core inspiration that comes to us is the unmanifest. It sets a seed that is in the process of materializing in some way. If we don't sidetrack it or dilute it, it eventually becomes manifest.

When you come to me with what you perceive as a problem, I don't fix the problem, I just see a way through it. I don't see it as a problem. I see it as a process. Problems are not end-points; problems are processes. So in my support of you, I hold a higher possibility for you. But this is not free, because you have to give up something; you have to make an energy exchange in that process.

When you come to me with a problem, I support you in seeing a way beyond that. If you don't bring it to me, then I can't support you. What you have to give up is hanging on to the problem. That's the energy exchange: you bring something, and you give it up. In that support mechanism, you have to really know you are giving it up. You can't hang onto it and wait for it to change. That is a mistake people make: they will talk about something, but they don't let go of it; they sort of keep waiting for something to change, waiting to see that it's gone. That is not letting go. Letting go means not holding on. When you are not hanging on, you become open to higher possibilities.

So one way I support people is holding their life in this realm of higher possibility that has not yet become manifest.
