Before we begin, it is to be known that there are many definitions for what a multi-dimensional experience entails. Right now it is a big topic, because it can and does imply so many things simultaneously. So as we are working with this pointer, allow it to be of your experience, not necessarily the label itself.
What are dimensions?
A dimension is a set of markers that limit our experience in a natural way. These dimensions include thought, emotion, physical characteristics, time, space, archetypes etc
We have been taught that we are to have a “solid” character. A static set of truths that constitute Who You Are. This includes likes, dislikes, forms of expression, age, experience.
What we are now realizing though, is that there is one dimension of experience that is eternal, but it does not have boundaries or preferences. This state is the state of bare awareness from which all things come and go. Some people call this the un-manifested, and all experience the manifested.
When this dimension, the un-manifested dimension becomes a part of our lives, we can then see that all of the characters, roles, and experiences we have are of a temporary nature. There is an implication here. That the way we are acting in one moment may not be the way we are acting in the next. A dynamic energy is one that can flow with -what is- as that flow is changing. Also, that we can tap into whatever character, beliefs, experiences that feel natural at the time, and know that this is not the only way to be.
A grand example of this in most people’s lives is in a monogamous relationship. In your experience, can you see where you have been lover, friend, parent, child, etc? Another prominently changing relationship is that of student and teaching. In a dynamic flow, the role will change according to what is being learned, and what is needed.
Our schooling system of textbooks is a great example of a static flow. The teachings are pre-determined. This is not to be fought, but rather changed as the dynamic reality is presenting itself. We have an opportunity to begin living multi-dimensionally by starting to notice which characters/roles we are playing, and then to work with that in a dynamic way. Often times, it is authentically expressing our feelings with one another which is the key to a dynamic experience. It is the hiding from these feelings which often keeps us static.
This is not always an “easy” task, as we are a character driven society! However, in the right setting it can be very easy to begin doing this, especially with others who are learning and living similar experiences. A key and tool that we can work with is to allow the other to “be” without the want to change them. As in the case of “Space Holding” – Then to watch as the flow unfolds itself.
This does not imply though, that you are never allowed to comment or share with another in any situation, as there are no “rules” to this type of experience. There are times to hold space, and times to express, and only you can decide which experience you are having.
Realizing your life as multi-dimensional has a fundamental embrace of the Now moment as an ever changing, ever evolving experience. In other words, you cannot step in the same Now moment twice, as in the case of a moving river. It is called a karmic cycle when we are experiencing the same thing over and over. But this is not to be fought, but rather acknowledged. It is the deep acknowledgment of a cycle which is no longer the cycle. For that space of recognition is the Now moment in its freshness.
Many cycles are not just from this life, but are karmic in a sense of past lives. Certain tendencies, fears, wishes, and characters are ongoing through many time periods. Right now we have an opportunity to “shift” out of these cycles through deep recognition as the witness, or observer, rather than as the character.
Another way to look at it is the cycles of the collective consciousness. Past lives do not need to be as personal as they seem, although sometimes they truly are. Often times we are acting from a place of the collective man, women, partner, teacher, etc experiences that are collective, global and universal. Again, it is noticing these cycles that is our exit point. However, this also does not mean that we want to exit every cycle.
To begin fighting characters becomes a character unto itself. When a multi-dimensional aspect of Self is being outgrown, it makes itself quite clear. These words are simply tools in understanding the outgrown character that are presenting themselves to you.
As awareness is growing within the collective and on earth, many cycles are being seen and moved out of that had not previously been acknowledged. And, the observer, witness, or awareness does not “want” to change anything, but rather is the natural change that is happening.
When we force change because we are supposed to, often we will find that there is a character within who feels a “supposed to” vibe, rather than the natural movement of form.
This multi-dimensional understanding is a freedom to “play” within form, and still know deeply the root of the formless.
What kind of freedom does this imply? Absolute! To know our boundries, include and transcend.
This knowledge could be scary if one now thinks, "Well nothing I do matters". I did at first! However, as this knowledge matures there is a grand experience of freedom and exploration.
