: Every idea, innovation and act of imagination begins with a spark! This spark marks the energetic beginning of the creative process and opens up a space where grand things unfold and the universe becomes a play of invention and possibility.

When this spark happens, it begins a process where a dimensional change occurs and all things become possible. It takes place where your infinite mind meets with primordial substance in the cohesion of loving consciousness. It is more than vision alone. It is a dynamic force, infused with propagating energy that is both empowering and enabling. This is the creative power-centre behind every act of creation, large or small.

A spark can also be described as a state of mind, a place to create new ideas, glimpse new purposes and envision new possibilities in the theatre of your imagination. This infinite mind has unique qualities. It’s a pre-manifesting state of excitement, anticipation and latency. Ideas appear fluid and emerging. Here possibilities of all kinds co-exist and flow together in a sea of endless forms. In this state everything is open, free and unlimited in space, time and matter.

Thoughts, ideas, and even idle fantasies arrive here effortlessly in endless waves. They are unfettered by station, means or the distraction of having to be ‘realistic’. They come to exist in the idea state the very nano-second they are conceived.

Physicists would refer to this state as a quantum state, where multiple probabilities co-exist; a state occurring just before some indefinable cause determines the point where probability collapses into a definite event or material form.

You are a creator. You are here to create. You were born to rule over the elements, the heavens above, the mental realm, and the oceans below, the emotional realm. But you weren’t given the right or the power to do this right away. This you had to earn and learn how to use. Would you allow young children to use matches before they have learned how to use them safely without knowing the implications of their actions if they don’t? Of course, not.

By the same token it’s easy and fun to create a baby. But it’s not as easy to help that infant grow into an adult. The same applies to your creation. You are responsible for them so you have to create with this in mind. You have to be committed.

This is absolutely important in the scheme of how things get created. It is the beginning-end point, the alpha-omega. In fact this is the most important point. It contains within it the seed of the complete fulfillment of its creation as well as its end, its demise, destruction or replacement by something better. In the soup of the creative process, this spark contains both the pot and the noodles.
