    Ernest Holmes: Das göttliche Selbst und This Thing Called You

    Best quote from Ernest Holmes: Das göttliche Selbst und This Thing Called You

    “

    Du bist so schöpferisch wie deine Gedanken, denn Gedanken sind die Formen, in denen du all deine Erfahrungen gestaltest. Das Leben ist ein Spiegel, und wenn uns nicht gefällt, was wir sehen, müssen wir das Bild in uns ändern.

    ”

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Laut Miles beschreibt Ernest Holmes den kreativen Urge als einen universellen schöpferischen Drang, der in jedem Menschen und in der gesamten Natur steckt. In seinem Werk „This Thing Called You“ erklärt Holmes, dass dieser Drang uns dazu antreibt, Schönheit und Lebensfreude auszudrücken. Er vertritt die radikale Ansicht, dass wir erschaffen müssen, um nicht zu verkümmern, da dieser Drang die treibende Kraft hinter der Evolution ist und alles nach vorne peitscht.

    Das Bild der Rose dient Ernest Holmes dazu, den natürlichen Drang nach Selbstausdruck zu verdeutlichen. Wie Miles im Gespräch mit Lena erklärt, existiert eine Rose nur, um Schönheit auszudrücken, wobei Wurzeln und Zweige zusammenarbeiten, um die Blüte hervorzubringen. Dies symbolisiert, dass der Wunsch nach Liebe und Zugehörigkeit tief in unserer Natur verwurzelt ist. Wir haben das Leben nicht selbst gemacht, sondern wir leben darin und drücken durch unser Dasein das göttliche Selbst aus.

    Ernest Holmes betont in „This Thing Called You“, dass das Verlangen nach Lebensfreude, Liebe und Zugehörigkeit ein Grundrauschen des Lebens ist, das in allem existiert. Lena und Miles diskutieren, dass dieser Drang quasi unsere Natur ist und wir gar nicht anders können, als schöpferisch tätig zu sein. Dieser unwiderstehliche Drang ist laut Holmes der Beweis für eine spirituelle Evolution, die uns Menschen und die gesamte Welt ständig dazu bewegt, Teil von etwas Größerem zu sein.
