Co-creation

Dear all,

Thought I would say hi as I am new to this group and have enjoyed warming
myself up reading everyone's post for the past week or so.

A couple of things jumped out at me that seemed connected with each other
and to stuff I've been mulling over for a while - it's the subject of
co-creation.

Here's a theory about why.

Constructs and meta-constructs are aimed at modelling the "truth" as a
person sees it.
No-one sets out to create a construct KNOWING it to be a construct - they
are searching for the truth and come up with a theory about what that is -
and so a construct is born.
That's why NORMALLY people resist letting go of their constructs, because to
them they are not arbitrary - so we get resistance.

I guess most people on here have done a fair bit of self-development of
different kinds and have picked up two types of ideas:
- that beliefs are constructs and can be altered, swapped or therapied out
of existence
- that there is some kind of truth underlying all the constructs, around
Being and Oneness and all that stuff

For a lot of people on here, the ideas of Being and Oneness have become part
of our constructs.
It's definitely part of our meta-construct.

But suppose the stuff about Being and Oneness really IS TRUE......?
So then the construct (normally code for "False") is actually about
something True...?

Suddenly our Construct and our Non-Construct are talking about the same
thing, pulling in the same direction.
No Resistance!!!!

So I was thinking all this and then someone posted the Sacred Heart
meditation bit that included:

> you will then
> joyfully lend your Self to the highest service of Humanity.

The same idea again - The Self (the earthly, constructed, personality Self)
can become co-creator with the higher, the truth etc.

It all seems to fall so neatly into place that I then worry about the
feeling of certainty and "doneness" that arises in me. ("As soon as you
think you Know something is when you stop really Knowing")

Anyone like to do me a favour and deconstruct my construct about this?....

Thanks
Mary
