Note: The following article was written based on my understandings and reflections of the material produced  by Eric Pepin and Higher Balance.

Ok, so to begin, I will say that imagination is something that I have struggled with in my spiritual journey for quite some time … I have come from quite a New Age background, in which I found my imagination was encouraged to run wild and I would tag anything and everything as a ‘Divine Message’ or a ‘message from a spirit guide, or ascended master’, or whatever you want to call it. I’m not saying that I never receive any accurate information using this method, but these days I see it kind of like one of those rat poison cookies you can buy – they might be 99% cookie and 1% poison, but just because there is more cookie than poison, it doesn’t make it any less dangerous.

Anyway, back to the topic … First, we’ll break down a few concepts to begin with just as a refresher;

• Knowledge (well really the understanding of that knowledge) plays an important part in the growth process – by being able to internalise and comprehend information, it allows us to expand our dimensional consciousness and consequently raise our tonal (interestingly enough, raising your tonal is also linked to further understanding of knowledge, so if you raise your tonal and are in a fluidic state, you will understand the knowledge without studying it). Understanding is also important because it allows us to stretch our governors by increasing our awareness of the dimension we current reside in – i.e. – by being able to understand skills of what would be considered a ‘paranormal’ nature, our governor is able to tag them as ‘acceptable perspectives of reality’ thus allowing us to deepen these skills thereby creating a positive feedback loop, that if worked on consistently can sky-rocket your results in any ‘paranormal’ skill you may wish to develop.

  It has also been my experience that by having a limited perception of something – which is often caused by being crystallized into a particular concept or ideology on a given situation, perspective or thing – will often limit you from experiencing it as your governor will edit the extra data out.
  

• The sixth sense – when I say the sixth sense, I refer to what others may call psychic ability or intuition.

• Imagination – well, this one’s pretty obvious as I’m sure we all know what imagination is.

So now that we are all on the same page with what I mean by those three things, I will begin.

The example that I will use to illustrate how combining these three things can help to increase your awareness is Energy Movements.

The first key – understanding – requires that you understand that energy (prana) exists all around us, and we only draw it to us and interact with it in meaningful ways when we are mindful of it. We also need to understand that we can move it around, as we are simultaneously a being made of subtle energies and a being comprised of dense organic matter, and that we are able to move the energy with our will from this dimension. However, as we are seated in this organic vehicle and our brains are programmed to recognise that physical action, or cause, equates to movement, or effect, the easiest way to work with prana is to move it as if we were using our physical bodies and combining this with prana mindfulness, or awareness.

In this particular instance, the next two keys (imagination and the 6^th sense) are very intertwined. As you will see shortly, we can think of the usage of the imagination like a ‘jump start’ to your sixth sense. Although this method is somewhat specific to Energy Movements, you should be able to take the information and re-engineer it to suit your desired purpose.

As you do the physical movement with your hands, imagine that you are moving your hand through the water; that as it moves ripples spread in each direction. Feel the ripples as they disturb the water around you. If you feel you need to visualise, that is ok, but do not hold onto the visualisation as it is heavy. Create the visualisation in your mind and then allow the data to move from your mind into your chest centre, and feel the visualisation you have created, thereby projecting it outward. The subtle feelings on your skin and the feeling of air movement around you is part of your sixth sense interpreting data from your environment as ‘touch’ on your skin; except you initiated it with your imagination.

Notice how the 3 keys have created 1 experience.

Energy Movements may seem like a simple example, but this formula can be applied to many techniques.
