One of the primary traits of a Master is perseverance in the areas of life that provide him with the most passion and sense of purpose. In order to do this, he simply refuses to get bogged down in the minutia of life. What’s more, his universe seems to be forever conspiring with him, to bypass as much “red tape” as possible, while still keeping his feet “on the ground” and in touch with the spirit of the age in which he lives.

The old story about the absent-minded professor is very true indeed. Even as more “responsible” folk tend to ignore messages from their Inner “Genie” because they have too much to do, a true pioneer always seems to find time to work his miracles. This doesn’t always make for a fully integrated and predictable lifestyle, but it sure can lead to greatness in those areas of life where it really counts.

As I have previously mentioned, there can be a difference between “public genius” and “personal genius.” Those who seek after fame, at the expense of personal freedom, often lose both. But those who are genuinely, sincerely captivated by their own lives—focusing steadily upon those things which excite them (regardless of what other people think, or seem to want)—are often admired for that quality, and become famous in spite of themselves!

NO NEED TO ASK PERMISSION
At this current vibration in history, the human brain is no longer capable of controlling our life path. It just can’t move quickly enough. And so, it seems that something else has taken over. This “something” is a center of consciousness that lives just outside our reality “box”—a true and valid part of us that has daily interface with the infinite. If we are forever trying to figure things out before acting on the inclinations of our spirit, Inner Genius may just pass us by.

In the late 80s, I heard the following words channeled from a powerful entity, working with The Extraterrestrial Earth Mission, in Arizona. I have never forgotten them:

“Either you learn to follow your spirit without hesitation, or you will end up following your hesitation without spirit.”

Inspiration can come and go in an instant. Frequently, we have little advance warning that something wonderful is about to occur. The urge to follow a new path can begin merely as instinct, and then build into something fantastic from there. But the power to discern these “pivotal moments” is primarily a function of the feeling self.

To date, emotional connection has been one of the primary elements that have been missing on Planet Earth. The influx of new energies, arriving between June and September of this year, will change all that. Humanity is in for a wild ride, for some time to come. But, in the end, we will be far better off for it.

TRUSTING YOUR INNATE “FLOW”
Clearly, many of us need to make some OUTER adjustments before some of our INNER brilliance will be allowed to come to the surface. Now is the time for us to begin to do that. Relationships, work, hobbies, finances…all these “earthly” things………..need to (slowly and gently) be brought into submission to the primary energy source that already flows from the center of our being. I refer to this as our “Innate” or our “Innate Self.”

To be clear, I am not advocating arranging life according to what you want, or how you wish to be perceived. I am speaking about aligning your outward connections and responsibilities with how you truly are. Our body energy is a great barometer for this. When we are moving with Innate Flow, we feel alive, vibrant, and full of creative power. When we are not—though we experience many types of outward success, approval or physical reward—a large part of us feels disconnected and dead.

People in search of innate genius must learn to take an honest, unbiased look at themselves when they are alone--in their own “habitat.” They need to let their hair down, wear comfortable clothing, and lose the need to constantly monitor how they appear, or what others are thinking about them.

What activities make you feel warm and alive? What conditions help you relax? Around what types of people do you feel safe to simply be who you are--without extraneous effort or feigned interest? Once you have answered these questions, you will have determined what type of “soil” to plant yourself in, in order to remain “fertile.” You will have discovered a “home” for your expanding soul. When you do, everything else will naturally clear itself.

CHANGING THE “RULES” OF YOUR GAME
Most people who have gotten off track, in the development of their personal genius, became programmed for mediocrity in the early years of their life. Born into families where individuality was resisted, where innovative thinking was scorned—they simply applied conceptual tourniquets to stop the flow of inner knowing, and donned volitional straightjackets, in order to keep from doing anything that might threaten the sensitive egos of those who had charge over them.

Of course, all of this was by grand design. We come to this plane of existence in order to experience limitation and conflict—far from the grandeur and majesty of our former estate. At our core, we are divine. We carry within us the ability to do or have anything, just by thinking it. We are magical, and we are sublime! But here, in 3D, we get to take a vacation from all that power. For a time, we pretend to forget who we are, so that we can experience what it would be like to be someone (or something) else. I refer to this as “The Grand Game.”

Some people love drama, so drama is what they create. Others seem quite content to just hang out in 3D, going with the flow, and enjoying the fellowship of humanity. A few choose to ride tides of “outrageous fortune,” with all its slings and all its arrows. Others are like Moses, living growing up in the House of Pharoah, before he realized his origins and his life purpose. They inherit power, resources, and considerable influence. What they lack, however, is remembrance of the rest of who they are.

THE POWER OF RELATIONSHIP
As can be plainly seen at this point, people around us play a huge part in how we connect to our Innate Genius. They can be stumbling blocks to that connection, or they can be stepping stones up the mountain of our soul’s evolution. It all depends on how we handle our relationships, or even if we choose to handle them at all!

My Spiritual Guides, The Reconnections, have spoken much about this process. In one of their transmissions to me about this important subject, they said the following:

“The practice of "second guessing" oneself concerning relationships creates a "short" in the circuit of your understanding. Whenever a person abdicates his absolute trust and confidence in his own intuition and abilities, he loses. So do the individuals with whom he relates. Make no mistake about it---when the simple spirit of self-trust departs, though you may appear to win a few "battles," you have already lost the war.

All relationships can be seen as "flashcards," designed for testing and retesting yourselves concerning one crucial issue: Do you trust yourself, or not? Whether or not the individual or situation under consideration is right or wrong for you is truly irrelevant in the light of this crucial, continual query.

DESIRE is the activation key, which places you in the driver's seat of your Multidimensional Vehicle. Lose touch with your desire, your inner passion, and your vehicle skids right into a ditch. To be sure, it will take time for society to begin adapting to patterns of inner guidance, rather than blind adherence to outward traditions, or social mores.”

If desire is the taproot from which Inner Genius arises, then it only makes sense that we need to remove anything and everything that hinders us from connecting to it. To be sure—this process requires tact, cleverness, and a certain amount of patience and good timing. Rearranging or eliminating relationships can be painful and sticky. So be it. An ounce of “personal genius” is worth five hundred pounds of conformity.

In the segment to come, I will speak in depth about the final requirement for meeting your inner genius—following the energy. Though this sounds (and is) quite simple, it is by no means easy. But hey, we’re dealing with genius here, aren’t we? The difficult things we do immediately. The impossible takes a little longer.
