MORE ABOUT THE AHA METHOD

“AHA!” is a strong exclamation acknowledging that one has completed or is in the process of Accessing Higher Awareness. A true AHA arises out of Love-based wisdom. This wisdom is held in trust for each individual by Higher Awareness and given when the time is ripe. Some call this Higher Awareness the Field, Higher Self, Divine Intelligence, One Mind, Innate Wisdom or other similar terms. Whatever one chooses to call that highest potential, AHAs reflect a tuning in to a higher nature than that of everyday human “doingness”.

AHAs may happen during absorbing activities such as preparing a meal, sitting quietly and contemplatively, wading in a stream, driving along the freeway, or in any number of other ways. Sometimes, when the masculine, action oriented, left brain is task focused, the feminine, right brain visionary, is open to another level of awareness. While there isn’t a specific guaranteed way to receive AHAs, setting a clear intention to be receptive is often the first determining step. After that, the process will present accordingly without heed for the details of individual “plans” about how it occurs, when it happens, or who is involved. In other words, your job is simple. Set a clear intention to be receptive then pay attention. Gratefully notice what opportunities or challenges present. Learn to be totally grateful for them. The attitude of gratitude is conducive to increasing AHAs.

AHAs may come as mini insights, medium sized recognitions or mega leveled deep core awareness. All are spontaneously revealed when each individual is receptive and ready. Essentially any new information gained during a state of receptivity to innate Divine Intelligence can be easily identified as an AHA! No matter the way, time or place in which information is revealed everyone recognizes the internal shifting that can range from nominal to “world-shaking”. Divine Wisdom is offered equally to all. In other words, all are offered the same potential of Divinely Intelligent and unconditional “Big” Love. How it is accepted becomes personal choice. Likewise, it is a choice to utilize THE AHA METHOD.

There are innumerable AHA possibilities for the flowing of Divine Wisdom. A key element is that of trusting the process to bring what is needed with precise and perfect timing. I am reminded of the story about a king who while traveling through the jungle accidentally cut off his toe while hacking a coconut open. His wise advisor companion suggested that all things happen for the best and perhaps appreciation for the accident was in order. The suggestion angered the king so much that he threw the advisor in a pit and continued on alone. The next day a tribe of head hunters captured the king and planned to sacrifice him. The tribal medicine man noticed a toe missing and declared him to be “bad medicine”. They released the king who immediately returned to the pit to rescue the advisor and to offer his profuse apologies. Upon hearing the story the advisor thanked him for throwing him in the pit. The king was puzzled at the grateful response. The advisor explained, “If I had been with you, I might have been the perfect sacrifice!” Trusting in the wisdom of the process with gratefulness allows for greater expansion of awareness.

AHAs of any flavor are indicative of Higher Self connectedness whether or not one is conscious of it. That connectedness opens the access portal to the innate wisdom of Divine Intelligence. Thus, THE AHA METHOD is an intentional process designed to tap directly into the divinity of individual inner wisdom. This elicits messages to you, from you, and about you as a method of Higher Self Divination.

As humans, we are separated by our personal perceptions or perhaps, more accurately, our misperceptions though we remain constantly connected in a Spiritual Reality of Truth. Conscious individual reconnection with the Spiritual Reality of the Truth of our Divine Nature is a step towards remembering and reuniting with wholeness and Unity Consciousness. Thus, the point of connectedness is a remembrance of Oneness.

From the state of connectedness, each of us may live joyfully as an authentic and genuine spiritual-human being. As we claim our authenticity we are then able to fulfill our individual purpose as we maximally contribute our unique version of service to the whole. If each contribution is offered with the pure intention to serve the ONE then it is done without expectations of or attachments to the results. This type of genuine service assists the complete reawakening of humanity into the natural harmonious state of a unified Whole.

THE AHA METHOD is designed for dealing with anything from a casual question to a spiritual crisis or a personal emergency. Because it can consciously evoke and activate the guidance of innate Divine Intelligence it enhances ones ability to access the innate Wisdom needed for a win-win resolution in any situation. Love is always the highest choice because it most accurately reflects the innate Wisdom of Higher Awareness. The process involves having ego be cooperative while implementing the following formula:

The good news for ego is that Vision without Action falls short of potential -so does Action without Vision. Therefore it is essential to create a partnership between the two since each without the other remains incomplete. Just as completion at a human level requires the merging of masculine and feminine energies, the assistance of ego as an action component is necessary to live fully.

Life’s ultimate mission is to serve the greater whole by being the highest individual human expression possible. Fear inhibits and obstructs that mission. Operating fearfully may tempt us to seek a sense of self worth via external validation and approval seeking. Unless we take mindful charge of our life experiences, we may succumb to fear and ignore natural loving tendencies. Being fear-based creates internal stress which can stimulate or accentuate the experience of crisis. Feeling in crisis activates old cyclic patterns of urgency which we learned to accept as normal. In fact, fear, crisis, and urgency are normal only if we choose to let ego be the deciding voice in our daily lives.

Though fear is a common result of living in a demanding world, it is not a normal aspect of our innate loving nature. Focusing on and fostering fear destroys our ability to be consciously in charge of our own lives. The result may be a feeling of urgency around personal spiritual healing. This feeling is a clue indicating readiness to learn effective ego management and to step into a higher awareness of personal spiritual expression.

Many people experience a feeling of urgency in today’s world when attempting to find a sense of purpose and direction in life. It seems true that the current stage of the evolution of human consciousness is shifting. Every human heart aches, either consciously or unconsciously, to contribute meaningfully and purposefully to the wholeness and unity of humanity. One has only to peruse the vast array of current best selling self-help books to see that readers are feeling compelled to commit to a life path that emits feelings of living purposefully with personal fulfillment. There is nothing minor about pursuing clarity of direction. THE AHA METHOD is designed to assist that focus.

Remember that your ability to be fully expressive and self actualized depends on your personal intention, commitment, and receptivity to Higher Awareness. Effectively completing THE AHA METHOD is useful in attaining a sense of personal, peace, clarity, and safety that is accomplished through connectedness to and support from your truest and most authentic Essential Self.

Vesica Picis Creative Portal Exercise: Sit in a comfortable, awake, & relaxed posture.

A. Imagine a translucent blue sphere symbolizing feminine energy to your left & another equal sized red translucent sphere indicating masculine energy on your right. When you see them both clearly in your mind’s eye, feel them to be comfortably equal. Invite them to move- slowly towards each other until their edges barely touch. Notice what you are feeling. Extend the invitation for complete heartfelt integration.

B. Let the love from your heart’s core support the spheres touching. Allow genuine love to flow freely between the two spheres in sacred reciprocity. Imagine that they are prepared now to be ONE holy love.

C. With receptive heart and mind, invite the spheres to slowly overlap allowing an almond-shaped purple portal to appear. Cup your hands together creating an almond shape between your palms. Inhale to embody the portal vibration which is the fertile space of Higher Intelligence & Truth. Exhale to release & solidify a sense of wholeness.

D. With fingertips touching and thumbs against index fingers, transpose the purple portal to rest inside your palms -draw them to the center of your breastbone to touch the Thymus Chakra in exchanges of unconditional, universal love. If you are still envisioning the blue and red circles simply allow them to dissipate as you steadily hold the purple almond portal.

E. Begin now to envision a miniature version of you as you appear in this moment inside the center of the creative portal. Be present to experience a feeling of safety and security as you allow Higher Intelligence to permeate and nurture you. Set the clear mental intention to be open to the Divine Flow of Spirit through your Higher Self. With a deep breath, open your throat to fully allow an “Ahhhhhhhh” to emerge. Repeat this 3 times resonating from the core of your being in your perfect, pure, & natural personal tone.

F. Bask now in this safe vibrational space. Know you are centered and without blocks to full connectedness. This is the collaborative level between Higher Self and the little self/ego/personality. Envision the life experience you choose today. Feeling deep gratitude, fling open both hands and arms to completely release the vision. Return to your physical experience with clear discernment of new choices you may make today.
