Full Transcript for Perception Creates Reality: The Lens That Shapes Our Lives

with, 00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:22.240 then if that's what I'm believing, that's what I'm manifesting. 00:02:24.020 --> 00:02:27.020 It's, yeah, exactly what you said, you know. 00:02:27.380 --> 00:02:33.500 You know, I have to stop and think about it because it really brings up a lot of stuff for me. 00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:40.320 Perception creates my reality. It doesn't manifest it. It's my view. 00:02:40.540 --> 00:02:42.140 It's my lens on the world. 00:02:42.820 --> 00:02:48.680 And I can only see the reality, whatever it is, in a way that matches my lens. 00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:54.000 It's like not an act of manifesting. I think when people, at least when I think 00:02:54.000 --> 00:03:00.580 of manifesting, it's like this process of making it tangible that takes it out 00:03:00.580 --> 00:03:03.080 of the realm of it's simply how we see it. 00:03:03.160 --> 00:03:07.080 It's simply our perception that instantly gives us that reality. 00:03:07.660 --> 00:03:11.020 That's it. It's so quick and it's so... 00:03:12.795 --> 00:03:18.595 Profound i mean it really is everything just is right say we have the situation 00:03:18.595 --> 00:03:23.655 it just exists the way it is like pick something i'm trying to wrap my head 00:03:23.655 --> 00:03:29.195 around that so it's not like it's not it's not a matter of me creating it it 00:03:29.195 --> 00:03:32.355 already is it already is it's me, 00:03:33.715 --> 00:03:37.095 it's me adjusting adjusting well 00:03:37.095 --> 00:03:40.215 it's like turning the radio dial so i mean not if i'm 00:03:40.215 --> 00:03:43.415 tuning the radio dial so the signal's clearer 00:03:43.415 --> 00:03:46.555 so it's like i'm getting in 00:03:46.555 --> 00:03:49.995 touch with with reality by fine-tuning 00:03:49.995 --> 00:03:52.855 my my my ability to 00:03:52.855 --> 00:03:55.815 see it my perception yes yes because it's 00:03:55.815 --> 00:04:01.515 your perception that creates it ego shapes perception perception creates reality 00:04:01.515 --> 00:04:06.655 and and it's not it's not the process of hoping and wishing and and and doing 00:04:06.655 --> 00:04:11.515 manifestation from that level it's that anything you see has already gone through 00:04:11.515 --> 00:04:13.735 your perceptual lens and that's your reality. 00:04:13.975 --> 00:04:18.595 That's why you can take a hundred people and show them a movie and they'll all 00:04:18.595 --> 00:04:21.015 come out with different stories about what happened. 00:04:21.335 --> 00:04:26.815 It's because of their perception and their perception that was real to them. That's what they got. 00:04:27.892 --> 00:04:30.812 Does that make sense? Yes. Or is it one throughout them? I'm thinking about 00:04:30.812 --> 00:04:34.752 alternate realities. It's like, I have no idea what you see, right? 00:04:35.332 --> 00:04:38.972 Exactly. I have no idea what you see. So which one is real? And that's what 00:04:38.972 --> 00:04:41.072 brings me down to what reality, yeah. 00:04:41.492

--> 00:04:46.272 Of course, we have a physical reality. A tree is a tree. A rock is hard. 00:04:47.092 --> 00:04:53.132 However, how that rock appears to me can either be an impediment to my path 00:04:53.132 --> 00:04:58.232 or a beautiful thing to look at. I mean, that's where perception creates reality. 00:04:58.732 --> 00:05:05.772 The rock is the rock, but how I perceive it is either a beautiful gift or a problem to address. 00:05:06.092 --> 00:05:08.612 Both of those states of consciousness are real. 00:05:09.132 --> 00:05:12.152 So you and I are both seeing this rock and the pathway. 00:05:12.632 --> 00:05:17.052 I mean, I could either be seeing something I'm going to trip over and step my 00:05:17.052 --> 00:05:23.992 toe, or I could be seeing this beautiful life form rock that has, 00:05:24.172 --> 00:05:25.712 you know what I'm saying. 00:05:25.732 --> 00:05:29.092 Whatever it is you see, whatever your vision is, you'll prove it to yourself 00:05:29.092 --> 00:05:31.952 and it'll become the truth. That's how this works. 00:05:32.352 --> 00:05:35.412 So it's like, okay, you see the rock and you're like, oh my God, 00:05:35.552 --> 00:05:38.672 I'm going to stumble and hurt my toe. 00:05:38.812 --> 00:05:41.472 Say that's the thought form when you see the rock. 00:05:41.672 --> 00:05:44.612 So instantly, what happens to your energy? 00:05:44.872 --> 00:05:46.932 What happens to the vibration you're holding? 00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:52.480 It starts to shift into one of fear or caution or, you know, 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:54.800 one of those similar states of frequency. 00:05:55.180 --> 00:05:58.060 And then what do you do? You start seeing that everywhere. 00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.920 Oh, if I had stepped down, I would have been hit maybe by a car. Oh, look at that. 00:06:03.180 --> 00:06:08.800 I mean, everything in your life then becomes that perspective of caution. 00:06:09.140 --> 00:06:12.020 And that becomes your reality. Do you see what I'm trying to say? 00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.660 Rather, you know, it's all a vibrational thing. When we talk about creating 00:06:16.660 --> 00:06:23.780 reality, so many times I think about it when I'm not really giving it too much attention. 00:06:24.020 --> 00:06:28.600 But I think about, oh, creating my reality. Well, I can make this manifest into 00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:29.840 something else over here. 00:06:29.980 --> 00:06:38.220 I can make my poverty manifest into abundance or, you know, creating my reality on that level. 00:06:38.220 --> 00:06:44.980 When in reality, I'm sorry, I can't use the right words, but in my reality over 00:06:44.980 --> 00:06:48.480 here, I encourage you guys to join. 00:06:49.340 --> 00:06:59.100 It's my thoughts and my perception about the reality that colors it in a way that makes it so. 00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:04.040 And then I prove it to myself everywhere I go. Totally agree with that. 00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:12.860 The only part I don't Where I get stuck is my

ego Tell me about how my ego plays into this Well, 00:07:12.940 --> 00:07:17.780 your ego shapes your reality I mean, it shapes your perception Your perception 00:07:17.780 --> 00:07:22.680 of life is based on your egoic experiences Of who you are, 00:07:22.780 --> 00:07:30.240 of your family Of your experiences on the planet All of those form that I am thought Right? 00:07:30.908 --> 00:07:38.468 And so your ego, your perception of yourself in the world is what creates your perception. 00:07:39.028 --> 00:07:42.268 Your perception then creates the reality. 00:07:43.188 --> 00:07:49.288 Okay. Does that make sense? Sure. Sure. Yes. 00:07:50.288 --> 00:07:53.268 Is this too far out there for us to talk about? 00:07:53.408 --> 00:07:58.868 You were talking a little bit ago about how occasionally you get to this point 00:07:58.868 --> 00:08:00.148 where you want to manifest. 00:08:00.908 --> 00:08:03.868 Wealth or whatever, instead of being impoverished. 00:08:05.188 --> 00:08:12.908 But I think if you go back to the perception idea, it's not about changing that 00:08:12.908 --> 00:08:16.048 reality. It's about being able to perceive it differently. 00:08:16.448 --> 00:08:21.268 Changing the perception and the reality changes itself. When I feel really, 00:08:21.448 --> 00:08:27.028 and that's a beautiful example, because when I feel abundant in my life through 00:08:27.028 --> 00:08:28.168 the practice of gratitude, 00:08:28.168 --> 00:08:31.028 for example, all I see in my life 00:08:31.028 --> 00:08:36.308 then are ways to be grateful and as I do that I see more of them yes and then 00:08:36.308 --> 00:08:41.828 that changes my perception of my own abundance when I change my perception it 00:08:41.828 --> 00:08:48.388 actually filters into reality where I actually get more money or material goods or whatever it is, 00:08:49.008 --> 00:08:53.948 but the perception that I am carrying needs to shift first, 00:08:55.079 --> 00:08:59.839 Yes, I totally agree with that. All in all, it's very simple. 00:08:59.979 --> 00:09:03.659 All you have to do is really use inquiry, you know, ask yourself, 00:09:03.819 --> 00:09:04.999 what's my perception here? 00:09:05.539 --> 00:09:11.759 And sit with it. I think that's the reason I gratitude practice works. Can I have a man? 00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:19.939 Sometimes, sorry, my phone went off. And sometimes if I'm not feeling totally 00:09:19.939 --> 00:09:25.799 up and, you know, wonderful, I just sit down and write down a list of everything 00:09:25.799 --> 00:09:27.399 that's already working in my life. 00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:35.199 And it changes the way I feel when I can appreciate this is working and this 00:09:35.199 --> 00:09:37.439 is working. And you know what I mean? 00:09:38.419 --> 00:09:44.039 Emotions and feelings have a very real impact on how we create our reality. 00:09:44.819 --> 00:09:52.999 It's like the electricity or the juice behind the energy that we conceive of 00:09:52.999 --> 00:09:55.159 And pulling it into physical form. 00:09:58.259 --> 00:10:03.899 So however you feel about something is a very powerful way to manifest it And 00:10:03.899 --> 00:10:08.259 that's again why you go back and look at your perceptions Where did your feelings come from? 00:10:08.439 --> 00:10:12.799 The energy of feeling and emotion, the vibrational frequency is part of what 00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:14.339 makes it manifest into form. 00:10:14.939 --> 00:10:18.359 Does that make sense? You know, I may be way out there today because I've been 00:10:18.359 --> 00:10:21.039 writing all morning and I think I'm on another planet. 00:10:22.299 --> 00:10:26.899 So thanks for hanging out there with us, guys. You are on another planet. 00:10:27.059 --> 00:10:32.939 Thanks for showing up here today. I'm not sure I can come back anytime soon. We'll work on it. 00:10:34.339 --> 00:10:37.719 No, I think that's, I totally agree with that. I think perception, 00:10:38.099 --> 00:10:44.399 our perception is a reality. It's just, it's like the idea of... 00:10:45.618 --> 00:10:51.218 You know, if you look for wonderful things in your life, that's what you find. 00:10:52.018 --> 00:10:57.038 If you constantly go to that place of, oh, nothing ever works out for me, 00:10:57.198 --> 00:10:59.838 that's what you're going to find. You're proving it to yourself. 00:11:00.678 --> 00:11:06.238 Right? And instead, yes, and then what happens to us, it's like whatever we prove to ourselves. 00:11:06.418 --> 00:11:11.778 Say we're looking at something, excuse me, our perception is one of fear or negativity. 00:11:12.638 --> 00:11:18.778 And when we hold that energy and manifest it to us, I forgot where I was going. 00:11:20.058 --> 00:11:25.098 I'm sorry. Let me ground myself, you guys. I really have been spending hours 00:11:25.098 --> 00:11:29.778 downloading information for this book, and I'm not very grounded this morning. 00:11:29.778 --> 00:11:33.518 So I appreciate your patience and tolerance. 00:11:33.758 --> 00:11:38.058 And at least you can see what it's like to take a trip without doing any drugs. 00:11:38.098 --> 00:11:40.558 So there you go. You can watch this and go, wow. 00:11:40.938 --> 00:11:45.918 So, Ramona, I'm going to give it to you for a minute until I can ground myself. 00:11:46.778 --> 00:11:51.778 And is perception part of what you're writing about? Do I need to just talk for a minute here? 00:11:52.118 --> 00:11:55.778 Yeah, you just need to talk and let me ground myself since I really am, 00:11:55.798 --> 00:11:59.198 you know, doing a lot of downloads. Just a second, you guys. 00:11:59.838 --> 00:12:03.078 And yeah, we're just doing this on air. We've decided to do everything just 00:12:03.078 --> 00:12:07.898 real and record what we do and let you guys play with it. So there you go. Hold on. 00:12:08.970 --> 00:12:11.830 I can't believe for a long time the perception. Oh, I know where I was going 00:12:11.830 --> 00:12:16.330 to go with

this now. You know, when we're talking about we manifest what we see. 00:12:16.570 --> 00:12:20.870 So, in other words, if you're manifesting, say, I'm thinking, 00:12:21.030 --> 00:12:22.750 I'm seeing beauty everywhere I look, 00:12:22.790 --> 00:12:26.690 but my manifestation, my physical manifestation doesn't reflect that. 00:12:27.130 --> 00:12:31.530 And so then that's where that dicey path of denial comes in. 00:12:31.530 --> 00:12:36.310 You can't then deny it and go back into putting your hands over your ears and 00:12:36.310 --> 00:12:39.210 going, I see beauty, I see beauty, I see beauty. 00:12:39.650 --> 00:12:45.970 Because, you know, everything that you get is information for you to shift and grow and change. 00:12:46.170 --> 00:12:49.270 So say I'm putting out there, I love my life and everything, 00:12:49.390 --> 00:12:52.210 I see beauty everywhere and what comes back is negative. 00:12:52.870 --> 00:12:57.610 That is an indication of a deeper held belief in my subconscious. 00:12:58.510 --> 00:13:04.710 And so when I go again into that with inquiry and find out what my perception 00:13:04.710 --> 00:13:08.450 is and shift it, you know, in other words, it's a message. 00:13:08.870 --> 00:13:13.110 Instead of saying, oh, this never works. I create all these wonderful things 00:13:13.110 --> 00:13:14.510 and my life is still crappy. 00:13:14.790 --> 00:13:19.750 It never works. Well, what happens is the information coming back to you, 00:13:19.990 --> 00:13:26.610 the crappy life, is showing you where you still hold the illusion of fear or 00:13:26.610 --> 00:13:30.890 need or lack, and it's manifesting over your words. 00:13:31.150 --> 00:13:33.130 I have an example. Okay. 00:13:33.630 --> 00:13:35.590 So my life is wonderful, okay? 00:13:36.190 --> 00:13:40.410 Yeah. I love my life. Everything in my life is working. 00:13:40.410 --> 00:13:47.550 And then I listen to the news And I hear all the crap that's going on in politics, 00:13:48.350 --> 00:13:55.230 And sometimes it bothers me Sometimes I go to this place of the oh my god place, 00:13:55.910 --> 00:14:02.090 And I think that's because I have this deeper belief That politics makes a difference in my life, 00:14:02.970 --> 00:14:08.930 That it makes a difference in whether or not I'm going to be happy When in truth it doesn't. 00:14:10.285 --> 00:14:13.645 Is that an example of what you're saying? Sure. You know, I don't know that 00:14:13.645 --> 00:14:16.985 it doesn't or does. I mean, your belief is your belief. 00:14:17.525 --> 00:14:22.345 But I know to be present with anything and the reality of it without getting 00:14:22.345 --> 00:14:26.005 involved and trying to fix it, you know, then you can observe it. 00:14:26.065 --> 00:14:29.625 It's like, okay, I'm watching the news. That really hooked me. 00:14:29.865 --> 00:14:34.385 Well, instead of like then doubting your path or doubting politics or doubting 00:14:34.385 --> 00:14:39.845 whatever, you take that information of where that threw you off your game and 00:14:39.845 --> 00:14:41.885 just be present with it because it's feedback. 00:14:42.325 --> 00:14:44.605 You don't have to believe it or not believe it. 00:14:45.445 --> 00:14:50.925 In other words, perception, your ability to always go back to your own filter 00:14:50.925 --> 00:14:55.545 and visualize or be with your own perception is your key to freedom. 00:14:56.245 --> 00:15:00.245 Oh, I'm perceiving that event that way. Cool. 00:15:00.605 --> 00:15:05.405 Okay, I get it. That's my reality about that event in politics or whatever it is. 00:15:05.725 --> 00:15:11.525 And to change that perception, I take the feedback that I'm already getting, 00:15:12.045 --> 00:15:17.445 go within, determine if it's still true, and change my perception. 00:15:17.905 --> 00:15:24.165 When I change my perception and hold that perceptual shift, no matter what comes 00:15:24.165 --> 00:15:28.345 at me, again, it's that openness to see what's coming if it doesn't match your perception. 00:15:29.305 --> 00:15:34.585 It's about seeing it and bowing to it without believing it's the truth. 00:15:34.925 --> 00:15:39.785 That's what creates balance between denial and spiritual bypass. 00:15:41.145 --> 00:15:43.665 We're going to have to sit with that for a little bit, I think. 00:15:44.005 --> 00:15:45.765 Yeah, I don't even know if we should. 00:15:45.845 --> 00:15:48.545 Should we put this recording out there? I think we probably should, 00:15:48.645 --> 00:15:51.625 and then maybe people will give us some feedback. 00:15:52.665 --> 00:15:57.005 I think we should. I want what you're smoking. Or not. I think we should just 00:15:57.005 --> 00:16:00.705 accept that this is what is happening right now, and it's all good. 00:16:01.185 --> 00:16:09.365 It's all good. We have so much power within our own selves. That's where it all lies, you know? 00:16:10.305 --> 00:16:15.385 And I'm very excited that I'm moving into a new Well, it's almost the solstice 00:16:15.385 --> 00:16:17.465 We're almost turning back to the light. 00:16:19.105 --> 00:16:24.605 And I think it's an opportunity for a new way of being Without a doubt, 00:16:25.405 --> 00:16:30.745 Without a doubt, it's a new way of being We are ushering in this new earth The fifth dimension, 00:16:30.785 --> 00:16:35.085 whatever you want to call it It's not a physical planet shift 00:16:35.085 --> 00:16:37.905 It's a shift in consciousness where we raise 00:16:37.905 --> 00:16:40.705 our vibrations so that we all perceive that we 00:16:40.705 --> 00:16:43.585 all have these gifts that we perceive belong to different 00:16:43.585 --> 00:16:46.645 people we're clairvoyant we're clairaudient we're able 00:16:46.645 --> 00:16:51.705 to communicate with different levels of consciousness i mean we raise our vibration 00:16:51.705 --> 00:16:57.745 to the point where the kind of world we want to live in is manifest through 00:16:57.745 --> 00:17:00.365 our very energy

much less our 00:17:00.365 --> 00:17:04.065 actions and you can't fight for that kind of change. You have to be it. 00:17:04.625 --> 00:17:09.825 Again, and it's not even a moral judgment. It's how energy works. 00:17:09.825 --> 00:17:16.665 It's the vibration of the energy of the perception that you're carrying that creates your reality. 00:17:17.285 --> 00:17:21.725 It's all vibration. It's neutral. It's impartial. 00:17:22.305 --> 00:17:26.145 It's just vibration. So your perception carries a vibration. 00:17:26.425 --> 00:17:32.225 If you want to change your reality, change your vibrational perception and watch what happens. 00:17:33.277 --> 00:17:35.817 Change the way you look at things, things you look at change. 00:17:36.117 --> 00:17:38.697 Yep, pretty much. There's the bumper sticker. 00:17:39.257 --> 00:17:42.557 Yeehaw. I love that. I love that. Yeah, me too. 00:17:43.157 --> 00:17:46.397 So see, you could have taken all those words I spewed out and put them down 00:17:46.397 --> 00:17:48.957 to a bumper sticker. We'd be gone now. This is cool. 00:17:50.737 --> 00:17:52.417 So we're actually, we're all 00:17:52.417 --> 00:17:56.617 at play in the arms of God. Do you remember that? Was there a movie title? 00:17:56.957 --> 00:18:00.817 At play in the arms of the Lord or something? I remember it from a long time 00:18:00.817 --> 00:18:05.997 ago, and it had indigenous people, I think, in a—anyway, I can't remember the 00:18:05.997 --> 00:18:08.917 plot, but that title stuck with me. 00:18:09.517 --> 00:18:14.857 And that's what we all are. We're all souls at play and are in the arms of creation. 00:18:15.377 --> 00:18:21.017 And so what you perceive, you create. What you create, you share vibrationally. 00:18:21.097 --> 00:18:25.257 And that's how you create mass consciousness, and that's how you create tribes 00:18:25.257 --> 00:18:27.217 and groups is all energetic. 00:18:27.737 --> 00:18:31.217 And so with that, I'm going back to typing. 00:18:31.697 --> 00:18:37.437 And please, please, please reach out and talk to us here. We'd love to hear from you. 00:18:37.757 --> 00:18:44.657 My contact information is Deb Stedum. That's S-T-E-D-D-O-M. 00:18:45.157 --> 00:18:57.857 I'm at D as in dog, b as in boy stedham at gmail.com my phone number is 719-685-0780 00:18:57.857 --> 00:19:02.057 and my website is simplyenlightened.life. 00:19:03.255 --> 00:19:09.555 My name is Ramona Winkeller, and my email is ramona.winkeller, 00:19:09.555 --> 00:19:14.315 W-I-N-K-E-L-L-E-R, at gmail.com. 00:19:14.455 --> 00:19:19.095 And my phone number is 970-623-4159. 00:19:19.655 --> 00:19:23.995 We'll try to keep you more updated with what's going on on this end. 00:19:24.255 --> 00:19:29.095 And meanwhile, let us know what your concerns are or what you want to talk about 00:19:29.095 --> 00:19:31.155 or tell us to shut up.

I can't wait to share it. 00:19:45.355 --> 00:19:48.155 I've heard a little bit of it, and I know it's going to be wonderful. 00:19:48.495 --> 00:19:53.175 I think it's going to help a lot of people, again, but it's not lessons or teaching. 00:19:53.175 --> 00:19:59.195 It's just the story. And, you know, my aunt being willing to die a conscious 00:19:59.195 --> 00:20:02.575 death at 94 was remarkable. 00:20:02.975 --> 00:20:07.375 It shifted my perception. And talk about perceptual shifts. 00:20:07.735 --> 00:20:12.375 And so it's great to be able to finally share that in a way that can help other people. 00:20:12.775 --> 00:20:16.295 We'll see. Stay tuned. Let us know what's going on, campers. 00:20:16.355 --> 00:20:18.775 We want to hear from you. Love you. Bye now. 00:20:19.115 --> 00:20:21.355 Love you. See you soon. Bye, Ryan.
