As my previous article concluded, the most important contributor to change dynamics is the individual — not leadership, as is often assumed. In experimenting with light as a driver of change, individuals can create radical change as the need to do so arises.
In addition to the first three light maxims, the following can be thought of as strategies to help facilitate change:
4. Any person, situation or condition can be invited into one’s light sphere and be re-seen in light.
If an employee is experiencing a difficult relationship with their manager, for example, then once they create and expand their own light sphere — an imagined globe of light that can be stepped into — they can visualize their manager in it. Envision the light sphere as dynamic, a full body of flowing light. The employee’s sphere engulfs the manager so that the manager is re-seen in light. Visualize light flowing in and out of the manager. Such a re-seeing has to continue until the employee feels something in themself has shifted. This may be experienced as a sense of personal lightening, a sense of completion, or even a shift in their own bodily sensations.
It is important during this visualization to not have any expectations of the outcome. In light, situations can be processed differently. Any situation can be invited into one’s light sphere regardless of its size or complexity.
5. Light has its own logic and can change the information field of anything in one’s light sphere.
The simple act of re-seeing in light will shift the information field associated with the situation, and likely result in an altered outcome. When one connects with some image of light in oneself, one is essentially connecting with the full nature of light, whether it is felt or seen or realized or not. That is the power of re-seeing in light. It immediately brings the seer into full contact with the multidimensional power of light.
As a simple example, re-seeing a difficult situation as filled with light will likely change the information one has personally attached to the situation. In the example of the manager, the employee re-seeing them in light may alter the employee’s feelings of stress and create different filters in their own mind by which the situation is assessed.
But further, since light is in everything, and everything arises from light, and the act of visualization of light connects us with the ubiquitous light, actual information fields associated with a real situation can be altered as one’s ability to re-see in light gets strengthened. As quantum physics has proposed, intentionality is known to influence the outcome of experiments.
6. The power to positively influence change is limited only by the individual.
It is easy to resign to circumstance and to continue to see everything with the embedded lenses that we habitually use to see, think and feel. But the very repetition of the act of seeing, feeling or thinking in the same way is nothing other than a highly creative act in which past models of personal reality are reinforced in every new moment to recreate the range of effective dynamics in that moment.
Hence, the more one invests in dynamically re-seeing any situation, person, groups or object as light and flooded with light, the more one is able to see that light has its own logic and, therefore, that personal expectation and wanting of a particular outcome or result can be quite ineffective. The more powerful light dynamics within one’s own light sphere can become, the more effectively can circumstance — regardless of scale and complexity — be directly influenced to change into something better from a more global and impersonal perspective.
Being able to change things, then, comes down to developing a relationship with one’s own light sphere.
The turmoil that people experience in today’s world, whether personally, socially, environmentally, economically or politically, means that we are moving away from equilibrium. Note, though, that in a complex adaptive system, such a movement can, in fact, be beneficial. This is because it allows the often-hidden assumptions and perceptions that dictate things to come to the surface. If we react quickly as per force of habit, then a bad situation can spiral into a worse one. On the contrary, what can make it positive is a different and more measured response to it.
If we learn to see all the difficult situations in light and as light, as per the six maxims introduced here, then our holding of these difficulties can become nonjudgmental and allow light to influence the information fields of each difficulty with its fuller and more holistic logic, thereby easily creating the possibility of more beneficial outcomes.
Such a holding in light and as light then becomes a necessity. For as Einstein pointed out, a problem or difficulty needs to be solved with a different consciousness than created it. The dynamics and reality in light are nothing other than a radically different consciousness.
