The Four Principles of Creation
by John L. Payne

There is no judgment?

No, not in the sense that most of you think of judgment. Yes, you have teachers and advisors who guide you in making choices based upon your last lifetime. But they are not there to discipline you or to point out your faults. You decide what you are happy with, you decide what you want to create next, no one else. You are in charge. Their role is to assist you in seeing a greater vision of yourself. Part of our being has been present on what has been called the afterlife, or the astral plane, as teacher and guide to those who are offering guidance to you while you are in both the physical and in the non-physical states. Our experience tells us that humanity's belief in its inferiority is so strong that it has also become part of the consciousness of the Astral Plane. Meaning that the Astral Plane of reality that 'surrounds' the Earth is a reflection of the evolution of your entire species. Therefore, those beings who enter the Astral plane at lower vibrational levels make choices concerning future lives that are 'unnecessary' in terms of hardship, for there is still a very strong belief that suffering is necessary to reach a higher spiritual goal.

Are there any other rules that apply in the Universe?

The Law of Love and the Law of Attraction are the primary laws that govern all worlds, physical and non-physical. What we would offer also are principles. A principle tells of the nature of things, an action or a flowing of energy, more of a state of being.

The principles that we offer are the Four Principles of Creation, principles that express the very nature of God and of who you are: Love, Health and Well-Being, Abundance, and Creativity.

Universal Laws do not 'govern' you, for there is no external consciousness that has decided that you must adhere to such laws. Rather there are universal principles, somewhat like the laws of physics, that describe the nature of the Universe. The 'laws' in themselves are a description of the nature of things.

The primary Law is the Law of Love; all things that exist rest on this law. It is not that love is an action, for it is also a state of being, it is also a description of the nature of things, and it is a description of the Universe, of All-That-Is. This word, love, has been misinterpreted by many, and misunderstood by all of you at times. We would define love as the complete and total acceptance of what is; we would describe love as "allowing".

The Universe is one vast consciousness that has subdivided itself into smaller units, and further into even smaller units. This subdivision has been for the purpose of the creation of experience, for it is through experience that the whole begins to experience itself. If you are a point of light in the centre of everything that is also a vast nothingness, you cannot know who you are unless you can view yourself from outside of yourself. Then, as you gain that perspective, you then truly learn who you are through experiencing yourself as All-That-Is whilst holding onto the experience of being singular. In order for the Universe to grow through experience, 'allowing' or love must be in place, for there cannot be any limitation to the experience. For you to experience what you are, it is also necessary for you to experience what you are not. This comparison pushes you forward, for comparison is one of the most efficient ways to assist you in deciding what you want. This comparison leads to desire, and desire is the mother of creation, for without desire, nothing would come into existence.

You are beings of absolute and total free will. Free will is the natural result of love, for love is the total and complete acceptance of what is. As love is the very nature of the All-That-Is, it is also your deepest desire, for it acts like a magnet upon your personality. All that is not love is not natural to whom you are, and all things seek to operate according to the natural laws of the Universe. Your physical reality was created so that you may experience that which you are not. In experiencing that which you are not, you began to experience that which is not love, that which is not acceptance, that which does not allow. As a soul you began to focus yourself more deeply into the physical world; you began to associate yourself more fully and completely with physical existence. This has led you to believe that the physical you is the total you, and that this you which you know will die along with the demise of your body.

The body seemed frail and vulnerable, and initially you sought to protect the body from the elements, from cold and from heat. As you observed the animals defending their physical selves against predators, you too began to see your own body as weak and something that needed protection from predators. And so it went on, until you began to see others of your own kind as potential threats, and so the lack of 'allowing' firmly rooted itself in your psyche. This was the birth of the lack of love.

The comparison drama was in place so that you could experience love, which is total allowing, as you were drawn like magnets towards it. For love is the very nature of who you are, and even though the personality self has developed so strongly that it thinks it is the real you, it cannot dominate and prevail forever, for nothing can deny its true nature forever. Love is like a magnet, it draws you towards it, and it grows within you.

As you look back at human history, you can observe that you have been gradually moving towards greater levels of allowing. This movement has become increasingly more apparent in the past 100 years and the momentum of this directional move is increasing exponentially with each passing decade. Embedded in each of you is something we can best describe as an atom. This atom holds within it your will to love. You have this will to love, for that is the very nature of the Universe. Love is the prime quality of universal consciousness, so there is not a consciousness that does not have this atom. Your will to love draws you automatically towards the state of love, of allowing. You cannot deny this will to love, you cannot resist it and you cannot flee from it, although you can pretend that you don't have it, and indeed act as if it were not there. You may even fully experience a reality or a range of feelings that may seem to be devoid of love. This atom, however faint it may appear, is within you, and is magnetic to the greater expression of love, universal love, the love of God. It is this will to love that draws you forward in your development; it is what stimulates you to growth through your many incarnations, and from one cycle to another.

This is the game of the Universe; you have decided that you want to experience many different ways of going home to love, of returning to love. This is why you embark upon new cycles and new adventures. Just as you have had many lives on planet Earth, you have completed this entire cycle from 'lovelessness' to unconditional love in many forms, on many worlds, each one adding to your experience and knowledge of total and complete love. The Universe seeks to experience itself in love in all its forms. In order to do this, the Universe holds within it the experience of "not love", the experience of darkness, the experience of separation, all for the sake of love.

With this atom within you, it does not matter how far into the 'darkness' you go, you will always eventually be drawn home to love. This is a given, it is not any other way, and cannot be any other way. As love is the very nature of God, and as all exists within the mind and being of God, then all within it is of God, and therefore is of love. This is the highest truth. All is love. All action, all beings, all things are love, for that is the foundation of all creation.
