All the world is a stage and we are merely players. Yes, we are players but also the director, the producer, the cast and the audience. This life is a series of plays we create in order to experience, to learn or simply to enjoy. We write the script and then in a sequence we call time, we act on what we have set in motion.
The past is a play we produced for our own experience. If this happens to have been a tragedy and we played it through to its conclusion, hopefully we gained wisdom and growth from it. If we haven't and we continually recreate this tragedy on our stage of mind, we haven't put it in the past but continue to give it birth and continue to live through it. We energize it instead of concentrating on our play of the moment. This scatters our energies and doesn't allow us to give full attention to scene of the moment. If one of the actors who joined us in our drama is called away, chooses to leave, another is always willing to replace him and let us continue recreating until we understand its lesson.
How do we clear away this creation so we can continue on with new areas of learning, of experiencing? There is a simple exercise to help you. In your quiet moment, close your eyes and still the mind. Picture yourself sitting in a darkened theater, a1one. The curtain is down; there are no sounds, only your breathing. You sit there for a few moments and begin to recall a play that was very upsetting in your life, one that you are still giving energy to. As the experience comes into your mind, picture the curtain slowing rising and there on a lighted stage is your experience. You can see yourself and the other person or persons who were with you in this drama. You sit there, separate from the play, watching you as the star and the others as supporting players. What is happening, why? Why did you write this particular script? Was it to learn a valuable lesson? Was it to balance previous karma? Was it an experience you refuse to accept and continue to experience? Watch the play as a member of the audience and see why you chose this. If the answer is not clear, ask the higher self to explain it to you. Listen, as you sit there in this quiet theater and wait for an answer. From this
objective state, decide that this play is finished. It has run its course and you are now in a new play, one with new actors and new roles to experience.
To release this play, see the stage becoming dark, the lights slowing go out and there on the stage are the players as they truly are. In that darkened theater on the stage, are bright, glowing lights. The players are now their true selves, the Christ self, the God self. This is what you see as they dance and shimmer in their true being. As you look at the stage you see the true reality. You understand that the forms and the play were your own and the true substance of your experience was one performed by energies of love who agreed to help make your play a success.
Was it a success? Not if you are still creating it, for its' message has been lost. Release it and join the cast of your new play, the one in progress. Put your energies into this new experience and reap the rave reviews you will receive.
