The Information of the Blueprint of Health

 

I  want to write about information. Such a simple word, once upon a time.

These days, though, with everyone accusing everyone of misinformation, when “information” can be so easily generated at will, when people’s discerning awareness is distorted from the continuous bombardment of misinformation, distorted information, manipulated information, malicious information… how do we know what is true, and what is “real” and what isn’t?

As usual when exploring meaning, I go to look for the root of the word information. And I am told the Latin word “informare” means to “give shape to the mind.” Or “to instruct.”  The transmission of information is not a simple objective presentation. It is recognized as communication that has the intention to pass on a point of view, a perspective, to “shape the mind.” So the word itself has the seed of prophecy in it, how today we are overwhelmed by constant input seeking to shape our minds, from constantly differing perspectives.

When we teach SourcePoint, I find it very important to point out from the beginning that the principles and practices we teach are only one perspective on energy work, on understanding the nature, structure and flow of the vital life force energy we work with. I’m pointing that out now, I hope clearly. I’m about to impart some information about information. It is up to you, as the Buddha said, “to put everything to the test of your own reason and experience.”

The source of the information I am about to share is what I call The Awareness, an energy/information field from which the practices and principles of SourcePoint arose and were given to us. And that we continue to consult regularly. (I’m aware that very statement would be enough to cause many people to check out and dismiss all of what follows as misinformation ungrounded in any scientific fact. From a certain modern cultural perspective, anything that isn’t approved by current scientific experiment is misinformation…)

There are certain scientists moving beyond this view – (See “Science and the Akashic Field” by Ervin Laszlo).They are speaking of Source as a vast energy/information field from which universes arise, from which the multiplicity of forms within those universes arise. This theory honors the original root of the word. True “information” goes beyond the view of the human being. There is a greater consciousness that shapes us. Energies that are informed by that greater consciousness.

So we come to the principle of the Blueprint so prominent in SourcePoint, and in so many ancient traditions, expressed in many different ways.  The principle that there are fundamental energetic patterns of information that nourish and sustain us, and indeed in-form us, shaping not only our “mind” but every aspect of our being. And these patterns of energy and information are connected to each other and to the fundamental patterns of all forms of life in this universe. The human being is a point in a vast network of Being, interwoven into the movement of the wind, the warmth of the fire, the fertile soil, the mountain, the winged creatures and all other creatures, the sea and rivers and lakes, the stars and moon.

Ervin Laszlo says, “Most of us think of information as data or what a person knows. But the reach of information is deeper than this. Physical and life scientists are finding that information extends far beyond the mind of an individual person, or even all persons taken together. It is an inherent aspect of physical and biological nature. (Italics mine) The great physicist David Bohm called it ‘in-formation,’ meaning a process that actually ‘forms’ the recipient.”

In every culture this in-formation has been communicated, through story, through drawings and sculpture, song and dance. Geometric pattern is a favorite medium that underlies these forms. It provides one basis for the interweaving of this network of being. There is a universal Blueprint for us human beings, and for everything. The universal Blueprint of the human being is that pattern before the arising of gender, race, ancestry, belief systems, etc.  Understanding the principle of the Blueprint of Heath for the human being reminds us of our original connection, to our original Source, existing before all the stories we have experienced together for millennia. Stories that have taken many of us very far from our original connection.

The Blueprint contains the fundamental information of Order, Balance, Harmony and Flow necessary for life to arise. Certain protocols (as in ritual in other times and places) maintain our connection to Source, to that in-formation. Working with the Blueprint, we attune ourselves to the fundamental rhythm of the universe, vibration being another source of in-formation. In every SourcePoint session, for ourselves or others, we are strengthening our communication with vast network of Being that contains the in-formation of Order, Balance, Harmony and Flow. As we practice, we are being continuously in-formed by the inherent in-formation of the Blueprint of Health.

To be connected with the Source that contains the in-formation of the Blueprint of health is to be in touch with the moment of creation, that moment of vital life force energy in-forming itself, emerging into form. However, creation is not a moment in time. It is a continuous process of trans-formation. The root of the word transformation expresses the process of emerging into and through form, the continuous shaping and re-shaping of form that constitutes our life.

 Form is not meant to remain static. Being is continuous becoming, with no beginning and no end. Life and death are aspects of that stream of becoming, the flow of transformation, as are health and ill-health, joy and sorrow, hope and fear, all the polarities we encounter in incarnation.

One could say from the SourcePoint perspective, in the beginning  was in-formation. Source, we are told, contains all the information of everything that has ever happened, has never happened, will ever happen, will never happen. It contains every potential, every possibility. It is the Source of the in-formation of creation, the potency, possibility and energy of the emergence of form, universes beyond counting, life forms beyond imagining, emerging into form. Source has no beginning and no end.

Our human consciousness finds it almost impossible to perceive no beginning, no end. Every culture has its creation story. Perhaps they are all true. How could that be?

Take a moment and sit with the sense of being a part of all that is, woven into the very fabric of all that is, existing, as some ancient traditions would say, in the web that has no weaver, and yet, perhaps there is a weaver. Some ancient traditions describe our existence as nothing but illusion, a dream. And yet, that can be questioned. If there is a dream, who is the dreamer?

Take a moment to let go of questioning, of wondering, of wanting to know what is really true. Bring your awareness to your breath. Let the union of awareness and breath teach you the mysteries of no beginning, no end.

Once upon a time we knew where we came from and what we were here to do. But even in that long ago time there were differences of opinion, different stories, different interpretations of in-formation. Oracles spoke in riddles and interpreters interpreted in alignment with what people, especially kings and emperors and leaders of armies wanted to hear.

And yet, we have survived. If one is honest in the light of history, today there is not much more misinformation than there has ever been. Think of the courts of kings and emperors, the intrigues of power extending back throughout our known history. It seems we humans are very conditioned to propagate misinformation. In the past, however, our lives were more local. The power of our connection to the original in-formation was more clear, stronger. The energy patterns of earth and sky, fire and water, breath and being, in all their manifestations, were honored and acknowledged.

In his book Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World Tyson Yunkaporta speaks of these patterns of energy present in our lives, patterns of energy in earth and sky and all we see and feel, the vastness of the interplay of  the universe, and he tells us of how the recognition and honoring of these patterns/energies greater than ourselves prevents – narcissism. Living in accord with this awareness, we are connected. We don’t live our lives believing our tiny human existence is the center of the universe, that we are meant to have dominion, etc.

Now, the power of misinformation, distorted information, the information of separation – is global. And it has an intricate and disturbing technology behind it, synthesizing information incredulously more rapidly than we can, and putting it together in ways that can be helpful or dangerous. The rhythm, the frequency, the vibration of information and transformation separated from their Source are pushing boundaries, accelerating our human being in ways we do not even realize.

In these times the protocols and practices of SourcePoint Therapy can provide support, structure, an inner temple, a map with guidelines for navigating the stormy seas of disordered energy and misinformation around us, choosing our route with awareness and care. There are many other methods of doing this, both ancient and modern.

We’re here to share what we can of how to connect with the in-formation of the Blueprint of Health for the human being.

The Blueprint of Health for the human being is said by our Sources to contain the fullest potential of the human being.

And what is that fullest potential of the human being? Simple.

To live together in co-operation and community, rather than domination and aggression.

May we each work towards that, each in the way we choose consciously.

May all beings be happy, peaceful, and free of suffering.

(Once upon a time, Bob asked the Awareness about the location of the Source Point to the right of the body. People often asked us, why isn’t it above the head? The response was, think of the SourcePoint as an outrigger on a canoe, a structure that balances the boat and allows it to ride the waves.. in this case..the waves of existence. The image above emerged from that conversation.)
