It is the creative potential itself in human beings that is the image of God. –Mary Daly
We arrive with no instructions, just the burning desire to know who we are, why we are here, and find our way back home. Subconsciously, we aspire to be as enlightened as the Christ or Buddha, to achieve the greatness of Einstein, to make as much money as Bill Gates, and leave a legacy of love that rivals that of Mother Teresa. Ideally, we’d like to latch on to the lasso of Indiana Jones, Jr., find the Holy Grail, and reach the pinnacle of our potential.
Most intend to make the most of our brief dash between birth and death, but good intentions are not enough. We haven’t a clue what tools we need or how to use them if we are lucky enough to find them. We don’t know what the first step entails or how to sustain momentum on this life-long marathon. We are at the mercy of those who have gone before us, trusting and hoping that they will not lead us into a black hole.
Before we discover that the true path leads within and comes from within, we may scale the rocky relationship mountain, only to be abandoned mid-way. Others may climb the corporate ladder only to find position, power and possessions are disappointing. Eventually the Universe delivers a cosmic tornado—a life-threatening illness, extreme loss, natural disaster, or dark night of the soul—that shatters our illusions. Then we are free to discover the truth of our being and that the answers are within, not out there.
Soon after I began my spiritual journey, I would be awakened in the early morning. I lay still and silent in a state of receptivity while information flowed into my awareness. After an hour or so, when my mind could contain no more, I would rise, go to my computer and enter everything I could remember.
These divine downloads occurred three or four mornings a week. Within six months a holistic, holographic matrix unfolded and revealed the essence of the human experience. Sacred geometry accompanied the concepts long before I knew what it was or knew anything about spiritual symbolism. This inspired model for self-discovery is a gift of grace that continues to evolve in harmony with own personal and spiritual growth. I call it the Blueprint for the Human Spirit.
The Blueprint clearly illustrates the core aspects of life—body, mind, heart, gut (intuition), and soul, for many spheres of existence—quantum, personal, social, global, and eternal. It also reveals numerous connections among the different aspects of our being. These interrelationships show how we can live authentically, purposefully, and in harmony with the Universe when we are in alignment. One example is the recipe for inspired living: Balance (Personal) + Service (Social) + Oneness (Global) = Joy (Eternal Essence).
Hidden within the Bluepirnt are the keys to abundant living, holistic transformation and spiritual awakening. These functional processes emerged from the sacred structure of the matrix. They are practical guides for realizing our highest potential, manifesting our visions for the future, and knowing our oneness with All That Is.
Perhaps the most astounding revelation from the Blueprint is the Circle of Consciousness. This integrates all the cells of the matrix into a unified field. This synergistic whole shows the totality of existence, and from it we can discover and express the Essence of Being. In this moment, the concepts, no longer necessary, dissolve into pure infinite Light.
Joy comes from using your potential. –Will Shultz

My friend, Jill, raises an interesting aspect of intention in her comment, “It has become increasingly clear that my purpose has been to discover the capabilities, gifts, and splendor of being me.” Is it important to use our intention to accomplish more and do everything better? Or should our efforts focus on “being” and expressing the Divine Essence of our Self?
As a “perfectionistic doer,” I have struggled to find a balance between being and doing. For years, I was not even aware of a higher purpose, but strove for excellence while chalking up achievements and accolades, positions and power. When I redirected my efforts to helping others excel, I discovered true joy and empowerment. Still, I remained a doer, albeit a more enlightened one. This is how I was able to finalize my book, “Higher Tea: The Essence of Joy.”
I am learning how to be present while I am busy writing, creating programs, designing marketing materials, etc. When I pause and take a breath in a hectic moment, I become more aware of Spirit working through me and as me. Instead of putting forth so much effort to succeed, I allow it to happen naturally and easily. Then I am truly amazed at the “qualiTea” and “quantiTea” of my work. I am so much more productive and my work becomes my joy.
Perhaps the key is to just be present while doing, to be fully awake while fulfilling our earthly “duTeas.” Then we can gracefully and lovingly express our “DiviniTea” through our “HumaniTea” every moment of every day.
