Paradigms LOOK LIKE “this is the way it is.” Concrete fact. Immoveable. Permanent. Stone.

A paradigm is a thought / belief / assumption you’ve accepted as being a hard fact, which your quick glance / surface-oriented brain doesn’t even see to question; your mind just “takes it for granted as absolute truth.”

When, in truth, every paradigm is very arbitrary - and therefore completely changeable.

But you have to see your paradigms first, before you can change them. As long as you still can’t see them, you remain stuck in whichever ones you bought from other people, unknowingly.

Example: Your Physical Health

In the realm of bodily, physical health, specifically when it comes to “diseases,” almost every human has been taught (subscribes to the paradigm) that diseases definitely exist… You might catch one, they might take you out, or handicap your life… You have to do X, Y, and Z to prevent them or fight them… etc., etc., etc.

But my paradigm changed decades ago. It is impossible for diseases to exist (on their own) because that is saying that the big bang, or God, or whatever you think created everything on Day One, also created viruses, bacteria, cancers, and whatever can kill you. So that which created you also created your pathway to death?

That’s impossible. Not to mention ludicrous sounding and completely illogical. Yet nearly everyone subscribes to the idea that diseases exist; just look at America’s healthcare industry. It’s a religion of our time with huge churches built for it. Hospitals and doctors’ offices and insurance companies and governments and pharmaceutical companies…

Sickness and disease is a paradigm. The picture you picture inside your mind’s eye is that you’re a human over here… and viruses/bacteria/problems are out there swirling around somewhere, and one might latch onto you if you don’t watch out for them, if you’re not careful.

Like we’re living in a world of invisible boogeymen.

THIS IS A PARADIGM. It is all in your imagination. Your belief system. Which has been entirely programmed by all the humans around you. What you’ve read somewhere… what TV commercials have taught you… What “experts” have taught you…

And so, yeah, from the outside, when someone doesn’t know where all things originate from (our paradigms), then it certainly appears that diseases and the like “exist, all on their own.”

This is what I mean by paradigms being invisible. You don’t even know it’s just a paradigm! You mistake it for being a hard fact. Concrete. Set in stone. And the reason you think it’s concrete is because everyone around you has coerced you into buying into their own paradigms.

This is why a separation is required, as I’ve written about here and here. Separating your own paradigms from everyone’s around you that keep you imprisoned.

Another Example: Finances

This is the biggest one, in my view, by a trillion million miles.

The most embedded, instilled paradigm you subscribe to, way down in there, is that “money” absolutely exists and you have to do things in order to get it, manage it, accumulate it, save it, spend it, hope for it, even revolve your entire life around it, for most people.

The human paradigm is such that, “without a visible monetary income,” you are fucked. The level of stress and uncertainty it brings to so many (including myself very intensely, many, many times over my life) takes many people even to suicide.

The key to freedom here is, again, recognizing that just like everything else, it’s all paradigms. NOT set in concrete, NOT hard fact, NOT immoveable.

The human paradigm is that “you are a human over here, and out there is money that you have to get.”

“You need an income stream.” Without one, you are screwed.

I’m here to tell you that that stream is not something outside, but is actually your own paradigm.

YOU are the maker of your life. Your paradigms are the source of your life!

This explains why your source is invisible! Your source is your paradigms!

You decide what you have, what you experience, and what you enjoy. Other human paradigms have no bearing on your life.

All things come from the invisible realm of your own paradigms. Once you see this, you can begin identifying exactly which paradigms you no longer like and want to change.

You aren’t subject to anyone else’s paradigms. If you were, that’d mean you are a slave. Think about that… would your creator, whatever made everything, make you as a slave??? No way!

You get to live entirely from your own paradigms inside your mind’s eye!

This is the change. The switch. The move.

From hell to heaven. From being a mere physical human to being the God of your life.

You no longer live in a world of pre-defined “facts” and “ways it is” outside.

Everything instead originates entirely from your own paradigms! Outside facts no longer exist at all; instead, everything becomes entirely up to whatever you decide!

This is where your freedom dwells. This is where your true, unlimited, abundant, never-ending life exists. Right here, in and from your paradigms.

This is What It Means to be God, not a mere human

This is what it means to be God, and not merely a human anymore.

You aren’t stuck living in a realm constrained by pre-existing “ways it is” that you have to resist, or put up with, or navigate, manage, or hide from.

Instead, nothing outside of you exists in concrete at all. Everything stems from your very own paradigms inside your own mind’s eye.

You are God. Your life does not come from anyone else’s paradigms; your life comes from your paradigms. You are the maker, not a recipient.

You aren’t human… You aren’t born of flesh and blood, you aren’t born of a woman, you don’t have an earthly father... therefore, you don’t have to operate by their paradigms. You are not of that nature (name). Your nature, your identity, really, is that you are the maker of all makers, subject to nothing! (Subject to no paradigms!)

And that is the tree to say no to, the idea that you are subject to someone else’s paradigm!

It doesn’t mean you can’t partake in someone else’s paradigm… It’s knowing you aren’t subject to it that matters. You can partake or not, fully your choice.

Example: the US government prints money. Literally, they make it up. Then they make a rule saying, “No one else is allowed to.” HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Helllllloooooo….

So the “false tree” is someone else making rules for you. Hell yeah, now that you see it, it is soooooooooooo obvious, isn’t it?!?!

You have the right to all things. You possess all things. All things belong to you. All things are under your authority. There IS NO such thing as “outside of your reach” or “outside of your domain, or your authority.”

BTW, this is why “persecution comes for righteousness’ sake.” Because the human mind thinks everyone has to obey the rules. That there is a “right and a wrong.” That is the whole essence of “thinking as a human,” to begin with. But in reality, THERE ARE NO RULES. There is nothing to break and nothing to follow. There is ONLY your complete and utter freedom and authority.

Which belongs to all; they just don’t realize it yet.

For 28 damn years, I wondered what the living heck all that talk was about in the OT, all that “don’t make an image out of wood or stone and bow down to it.”

Who the heck would do that, anyway??? Do you know of anyone in your life who has a statue of Buddha by the front door and they bow down to it each time they walk out?

Hail naw.

So what is all that language about.

Answer: false IMAGES.

Where do images exist? In your mind! In your imag-i-nation!

Your paradigms!

Do not bow down to false paradigms!

nnnnnnnnow we are getting somewhere!

Of course, if you bow down to a false paradigm, you’re going to be miserable. You’re going to suffer. So don’t do it!

Live in the true paradigm that you are the decider of all things to begin with! That you aren’t subject to anyone else’s paradigms, thoughts, ideas, judgments, opinions, rules or anything else!

You are supreme above all because each one of us is the source behind all the paradigms!

The #1 issue in life for most people is finances. And not just finances, but also the ramifications of your finances. How you go about building your finances. How all the rest of your life often centers around your finances. Your career choices. Your life choices. Entrepreneurial choices. Cost of living choices. Relationship choices. Etc, etc, etc…

Do you stay in a job, a career, a business, an industry you don’t particularly love, just for money? At the expense of your genuine happiness and fullness of joy? Do you stay in your unfulfilled relationship, including your marriage, because of money?

Money, money, money, money. And all the byproducts of it.

As if it’s the fucking god of life.

Work yourself to the bone. Sacrifice your life for it. Or maybe you even have money, but still feel something missing deeper down inside.

For 28 years, as of this writing, I’ve been wrestling with this puzzle that seems ubiquitous across Western society. Accepted as normal. “The way it is.”

I’ve finally dug deep enough to get to the root.

Western society’s paradigm - 99% of it, at least - is that you start with nothing. “You have to go out and get, otherwise you won’t have.” Or, you have to go out and earn... If you don’t earn it, you don’t deserve it. (Which sounds 100.00% parallel with bullshit religion, doesn’t it? “You have to earn your way into heaven, into God’s good graces.”)

This paradigm… this underlying assumption about “the way it is”…

Is exactly what causes soooooo many problems - not just for countless individuals, but for society at large. Wars. Political ills. Social upheaval and discord. Stress. Physical ailments and chronic diseases from stress. Relationship stress due to money. Domestic and familial stress because of money.

Money, money, money, money.

What is needed is a better paradigm. A whole new paradigm.

And I’ve found it.

First, we have to go back to the beginning.

Money is a man-made entity. Completely arbitrary in value, completely made up, completely concocted and manipulated by the particular kings of that particular day.

Money is not like oxygen, water, or sunlight, the life-sustaining entities that automatically exist in nature to give us life.

Money exists nowhere in nature. Which means it is just a paradigm.

And we need a much better paradigm.

Here it is:

Before money was. You were.

You are not human. You are not a product of other humans. You do not come from other humans.

Therefore, you are not bound to their human paradigms. Your rights to life do not come from other humans and do not depend on other humans.

Your right to life comes from something before any man and before any man invented money.

Your right to life exists because YOU exist. You are self-existent and therefore your rights to your life are self-existent.

Your life is already endlessly complete - and always has been - way, way, way before money was ever concocted up by any human.

You do not need money any more than the birds of the air need money. Any more than the grasses of the field need money.

Your life is already established and provided for, because you are the Source of Life, itself.

But if we tell ourselves that we “need money,” if we decide to live in that paradigm, then so it is for us.

But we don’t have to. We can choose to live in the paradigm that nothing else even exists without us making anything exist, so ALL THINGS are 100.00% completely up to us!

We are the ones in charge. And our paradigms are what determine what we live in, physically. Once your paradigm changes to realizing that you are before all things, that you are the sustainer of your life, that your own decisions determine your life, that your life is not the least bit dependent on any man-made construct whatsoever…

Then you are free! Liberated to live in ALL OF YOUR FULLNESS!!!!

You are The Source of your life, and your paradigm determines what you get!

Full of endless options and choices. Possibilities. Without limits or restrictions.

All that’s left is you and me choosing what we want!

This is the paradigm of choice. This is the paradigm of being God. Unlimited. Fully in control, fully in charge, at all times, no matter what.

We can choose what our insides tell us we want, and we have the right to it!

I hate to say it, because I know soooo many who (rightly so) have just been 1000% turned off by bullshit religious teachings, but if you can see past all that nonsense for a moment, I will tell you this…

This paradigm is exactly what Jesus was actually teaching.

“Repent” = change your paradigm.

Because the “dominion of God” paradigm is available to you!

Where YOU are in charge. YOU are free! YOU have the authority to decide your life, make your life, create your life!

Because you are God!

You are not a mere human, a mere physical entity living in a realm full of restraints, laws, rules, constrictions, and pre-defined boundaries.

You are God in the flesh. Once you see it, it allllllllll begins to (finally) make sense!

This explains so many other scriptures, like, “man does not live on bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”

That is the paradigm change, right there. You are not a merely physical creature reliant strictly on your own efforts. You are GOD and your internal paradigms serve you, come to pass for you, on your behalf!

This is all explained in Mark 11: 22-23, too. This new You-Are-God paradigm is identified as, “you knowing that your will comes to pass, because you know you are God.”

This is also why Jesus asked, “Who do you say that you are?” After he first asked, “Who does everyone else say that you are?”

It’s the same thing as in Genesis, when it was asked, “Who told you…?”

When you begin to see it… Your mind and your thoughts, your paradigms, begin to separate from all the human teachings ever embedded in you by your ancestors, peers, and surroundings.

You leave all “human paradigms” behind… and you see, you enter the God paradigm. The paradigm of freedom! The paradigm of you being in control! The paradigm where you are in control of your life! Where you have the dominion! The authority! The decision-making power! You and you alone!!!

This is the treasure of great price! The hidden pearl!

Before anything exists on your outside, your paradigms first exist inside your mind’s eye.

This is where your control room is: inside your paradigms.

Change your paradigms; your outsides will automatically follow.

This is the shift. This is the difference between recognizing that you are God and not a mere human.

Humans think they live in a reality with preexisting conditions (which are nothing more than preexisting paradigms). They go about navigating that “outer reality,” either trying to change it, fix it, deal with it, accept it, put up with it, etc.

Whereas God knows no paradigms preexist, therefore no conditions preexist.

You, knowing you are God, you know you are completely in charge and that only what you decide exists. Whatever you want, you always have a blank canvas. You create your life through your internal decision-making paradigms!

By the way, this is what Jesus meant when he went around everywhere sharing his message. “Change your paradigms, because your paradigms determine everything else.” (Of course, the biblical translations use old-world terms like “repent” and “the kingdom of God.” Repent literally means “change the way you see something, the way you think about something; change your paradigms,” while “the kingdom of God” refers to how your paradigms are the makers of your reality; they decide your outer reality, so you and your paradigms are God creating your life.

Everything is a paradigm. And your paradigms produce your realities just like trees produce their fruit.

Knowing this is what unlocks you to live free and empowered!

Most importantly, you are the paradigm chooser. Knowing this is knowing the ultimate paradigm of all paradigms!

We get to decide all paradigms for ourselves, which means we get to decide which fruits we enjoy, because all things stem from our paradigms!

This is it. This is the big kahuna!

In biblical language (for those who care):

“Righteousness,” which always goes along with “kingdom,” (you’ll notice how they’re quite often used in the same sentences) is your right to exercise your own sovereign decision-making authority… your right to choose your own paradigms for your own life, independent from anyone else’s “trees,” or paradigms… their thinking, rules, opinions….

You don’t need anyone else’s approval! THAT is the God version of righteousness! You have your own rights already, period, forever! They are not based on man’s opinions - nor man at all.

You have the sole, exclusive right to decide your own life for yourself.

That’s the paradigm of all paradigms! The “tree in the center of the garden,” the tree of all trees!

And all paradigms always, always, always produce fruit after their own kind.

The End!

“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered.

“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.”

As usual, lots of points that could be discussed here, but I’m focusing on the key, key part.

Do you know that your Godness means your will gets performed in this life?

Keys:

1. A third-person figure is nowhere to be found in this passage about “how things get done.” It is entirely about you.

2. Most religious teachings invent a God up in the sky. Other religious teachings say this passage is about controlling the audible words that come out of your mouth, or that it’s about speaking to problems in your life like you’re shooing away stray coyotes from your backyard. But I tell you, none of those are the complete story.

“Saying” is not about words. Nor is this about “conquering problems.”

This passage is 100% only about knowing that you are God and that your paradigms exclusively create your reality, your world.

Only your paradigm matters.

You need to know this.

Your paradigm is everything. There is nothing that exists outside of your paradigm.

(This is why the false teaching that this passage is about “speaking to obstacles” is so erroneous. If you are trying to “change something,” that means your psychological starting point, your paradigm, is actually you having a problem. So you’ve created a problem that now you’re trying to fix… it’s endless loop that is extremely frustrating and futile. Trust me, I know that frustrating loop well!

But nothing exists without your paradigm saying it exists.

You are completely in charge from the very beginning and all the way through to forever.

Having faith in God = knowing that YOU are the King. You are the master. You are the decider and the maker. That YOUR PARADIGM is all that matters!

And then, once you know this part, you will automatically… quote… “say the right things” because you will see it, and it only.

There’s a lot of gold in Isaiah 55, but for this post, I’m specifically focusing on verses 7 through 10.

“Let the wicked man forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that He may have compassion, and to our God, for He will freely pardon.

For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways.”

This (along with 99.999999% of the bible, translated into English the way it’s been) reads like some invisible guy up in the clouds is talking down to us no-good, scoundrel humans here on earth.

That is not what this is saying.

It’s actually the exact reverse.

Remember, you are God. So it’s impossible that you’ve ever been unrighteous or wicked.

But guess what. You and I certainly have been told that we are! The teachings and programming we were raised in, by almost everyone around us, were most certainly twisted, erroneously framing us as vulnerable, small, weak creatures at the mercy of everything else that’s bigger than us. We built our lives on those false premises embedded into us by religion, society, governments, our neighbors, social media, our parents…

THOSE are the thoughts we are to forsake! The false teachings that we are small, weak, frail, powerless, vulnerable humans.

Just like Genesis 12:1 mentions, we are to “leave behind” the false teachings of our upbringing and instead live in the higher realm of the understanding that we are God manifest in the physical realm, right here on this earth. We are the God of the bible, that is the place of “the higher way.”

We just have to leave behind the old thinking and adapt the new.

- Eric

Genesis 12:1 is one of my favorite 10, 20, or so verses in the whole collection of writings.

The LORD said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people, and your father’s household to the land I will show you.”

When you recognize it, you know it.

It is a sentence about separation, in a positive way. Distinguishing your own thoughts and ideas from everyone else’s. From all your peers (“your family’s”), from all your upbringing (“your father’s”), and from the entire state of mind (“country”) of the status quo around you.

Diving deeper, it is about you and me realizing, learning, that we are not subject to anyone’s paradigms around us. We are not subject to anyone else’s thoughts, rules, paradigms, constrictions, restrictions, or any other teachings or constructs.

You are free. In the new land that is yours, you make the rules. In the new land that is mine, I make my rules.

My imagination is my maker of things. My imagination is the creator. My imagination is the father, the originator, the generator, the source of all of my existence.

Not anyone else’s imagination. Your imagination. My imagination.

Funny how in English it’s “image” + “nation” because the very next verse, Genesis 12:2, says you are your own great nation. Your mind’s eye, your imagination, is your very own land where you can grow your own thoughts, ideas, pictures, images, dreams, and concepts.

I am writing this for you who have sought. You know who you are because this resonates deeply inside your vibrational heart.

You are not a mere human. (Yes, I’m aware that at first this is hard to fathom.)

You are God in a physical body.

Specifically, your imagination is God. Your imagination is the source of your life. The creator of your life. The “father” of your life. (And “the father” referred to in the bible.) Your imagination is the origination of all of your existence.

And you agree with this because you’ve felt it before. You’ve operated this way before. You’ve experienced it before. You and I just didn’t previously realize exactly what it was or just how much authority it holds.

Your imagination, God, is not subject to any outside paradigms. Also, something you intrinsically know, feel, have already experienced, and therefore naturally agree with.

Understanding this… realizing this… is what sets us free, liberates us to live fully, freely and happily!

Finally!

It happens gradually. It did for me, at least. Maybe better described as: it comes in ultra-quick bursts, mixed with ultra-quiet times of nothingness. Really, though, in hindsight, I call those the intense periods of questioning.

Once you begin to see it, it takes on momentum and grows in your awareness like a Polaroid developing before your eyes.

Everything dissolves. And something wholly new arises in its place.

A new understanding of who we are. Along with a new understanding of how things work.

It’s the complete dissolution of every single “norm,” every single convention, every single restriction ever thought by mankind.

Everything you thought was “the way it is.”

Everything everybody tells you is “the way it is.”

Completely dissolved. Completely false.

There is no “way it is” - except for whatever you decide.

There is no outside world at all, to begin with. There is only you and your world.

You have that level of sole decision-making, life-deciding sovereignty.

You, and you alone. That’s the perfect beauty of it.

You are God. I am God.

God is us, right here in physical bodies on this earth.

God is not some guy in the sky. God is not some entity anywhere outside of you.

Likewise, you are not some frail, vulnerable, susceptible creature oft-referred to as “a human.”

You are God in the flesh. You are the God written about in that book called the Bible.

You are this entity. This source, this creator, this originator, this generator. You alone are this for your life, and I am for mine.

Period.

No more third-person religious nonsense baked into everybody’s bread.

Life is singular. You are God.
