The Complexity of Blending the Higher Flow with the Lower on the Spiritual Path

The Complexity of Blending the Higher Flow with the Lower on the Spiritual Path

Okay, so more and more people are speaking of the importance of aligning with the natural flow in life — to find greater harmony, fulfillment and at-one-ment with the divine. But there’s an added complexity happening in the quantum field which I felt to bring attention to. Because if you’re embarked on the spiritual path, it’s sure to be affecting you. It’s the realisation that at least two main, sometimes contrasting, flows are influencing your consciousness. Understanding and integrating these is going to be important to peace of mind, because the interplay of the two will likely affect every choice that you make…

Consensus Realities for Collective Learning

‘The Flow’ descends down from the source through the dimensions inside you. It speaks first through higher mind, landing as a spontaneous knowing – “this is the way to go now”. Or else you’ll have visions of future-landing-now, and get knowings of the educational purpose for how the moment is configuring. The moment is always there to teach you something about yourself and those around you (for this all to be functioning correctly, higher mind needs to be activated). So far so good.

But as the flow descends through the dimensions, souls are drawn together for a mutual learning experience which invokes and involves collective karma. Karma draws the threads of the quantum soup together, so as to create a reality which souls can engage in, in order to confront and process this karma.

This is where the complexity happens.

The consensus reality (‘consensus’ at a soul level, which is frequently unconscious) creates a reality with form, encompassing judgments, which are intrinsic to the karma. Like for example, you may consume animals without consideration. Or likewise exploit the resources of mother earth without feeling the need to be compassionate for her.

Or else people configure the environment to suit purely human needs. Such unconscious judgments arise from collective karma, and create a reality with all manner of rules, regulations and ‘normal acceptability’ (but often without conscious accountability).

Consider for example how ‘alternative medicine‘ is being marginalised by the system because of the judgments society makes. Consider how the powers-that-be manipulate the climate or encourage genetic modification of prime foods, without labeling, and with stark consideration for the wider impact on the environment.

Becoming a Bridge Between Worlds

All of these judgments, and countless more, shape first in the 4D field, which contains the karmic footprint humanity is working within. And this karmic footprint has a flow all of it’s own. It’s a harmonising flow that works to ‘connect the dots’ so to speak – to connect up the fragments of light wanting to emerge from this density. The light progressively emerges and reality realigns with the source, the higher flow, inviting all those within it, to join the movement.

In each of the judgments, the soul is accepting a compromise, in order to build the reality and have the experience – albeit a distorted experience.

What doses this mean in a practical sense?

It means that in any engagement – within families for example or with your work colleagues – each will be being influenced by two varying flows, depending on their degree of awakeness. If they’re pretty asleep, they’ll be reacting mainly to the lower flow, which has created this reality. If they’re fairly awake, then they’ll be receiving higher flow impulses to change the reality.

The higher flow is constantly seeping into the lower one, and working to connect up with it, so as to transform it into a higher vibration – it’s fueling the current transition from 3D to 5D reality.

It means you’ll have to bridge between worlds in just about everything that you do. Which is going to frequently feel like you’re being pulled in two different and contrasting directions within the choices you make. It’s going to feel very destabilsing within, for quite some time, until this phenomenon is integrated.

How do you integrate this destabilising experience?

You have to stand in the middle of the two realities – as the bridge between them. You have to keep feeling for the higher truth, but then expressing it in an as accessible way as possible. You’re not compromising the higher truth that you feel (and observe being backed up by synchronicity), but you can always soften the way you express it — to make it less harsh for example, more understanding and bridging.

So in disagreements, it’s always good to build bridges by first honouring the other’s truth, no matter how distorted. Work to build a bridge by empathising with at least some aspect of what they’re saying – even and especially when they’re young and not yet emotionally mature. Begin by supporting and upholding their truth. I’ve found it’s then much more likely they’ll embrace aspects of your point of view. I call it building bridges.

You will likely feel pulled in two different and contrasting directions. It’s often like two different worlds exist in different parts of your brain. Don’t worry! You’re not going crazy. If you let go of the need for any kind of outcome in these situations and just keep aligning with the rightness of truth that you can feel, then you’ll become adept at dancing between the world’s and blending the two different flows.

Dancing Between the Realities

It also pays to be discerning with the truth that you express – when, where and how. Not everyone – in fact most – are not going to be in a place where they can understand the higher reality and flows that you’re plugging into. Although the soul will yearn to be transparent (clarity and truthfulness are key qualities of the soul), nevertheless, it won’t necessarily pay to blurt out the entire workings of the cosmos when it’s homework time or your teenager is just off to the local rave!

So you’ve got to learn how to dance between the realities. Recognise the higher flow is always an educational opportunity – for integration of soul. This will embrace all those around you, even if they don’t yet get it. You may even see the lessons they’re supposed to get, but aren’t yet ready to. Play your part, but be as gentle as possible – don’t use a sledge hammer to crack the outer layer!

In the lower flow, it will get more turgid – more regimented, according to the consensus karmic reality created. People will fall over, have challenging times and come a cropper in this reality. Nevertheless, we all only ever manifest the reflections we need, no matter how challenging.

So bless these distorted manifestations – these ‘accidents’ on the path – for they are excellent mirrors. And as people learn through them, more and more of the flow feeds in and connects up. And as it does, then the lower reality begins to shift more strongly and transform. In fact your very consciousness is acting as a channel to feed in transforming flow.

Unsung Heroes Everywhere!

Did I say it was easy? It is not. But know that you’re not alone. You’re never alone. Higher consciousness is all around you, supporting you. It won’t always tell you exactly what to do however, because this is all about self-empowerment – self-realisation. But it will give plenty of reflections and clues on the way. Take heart, there are literally thousands of unsung heroes like you out there in the field, here to channel in the light. You may at times feel like you’re alone and perhaps going a bit crazy. You’re not! Stand firm, test you truth, be prepared to adapt and evolve. But nevertheless build trust in your truth. Trust in the bridge that you’re becoming, even if many around you haven’t got a clue what you’re doing! Here you are, blending the higher flow into the lower one. A herculean task!

I see you.
