Free Will, Values and Creativity
a talk given to
WORLD BROTHERHOOD UNION MEVLANA SUPREME FOUNDATION
Istanbul, Turkey, November, 2008
by Rowena Patte Kryder

We are not so much in an economic crises, nor military crises, nor governmental crises, but in a moral crises. Morality comes from awareness of and response to the needs of the whole. Social responsibilities are linked with moral responsibilities for our values influence what we do and don’t do.

We also face a crisis of imagination and creativity. We need to know our priorities of value, and take action on how we imagine fulfilling our prioritized soul intent. We need to question cultural assumptions and the values of our lives. Our affinity with and awareness of the universe needs to bring our consciousness to our values.

Free will is not only the ability to procrastinate until we do what is inevitable; it is the capacity to transcend limits and constraints by unconditional love. Love is a unified field of Light that enables true freedom. Contrary to popular public opinion we need to release hope so we can get to the bottom and feel a need to change, to love more. We need to feel our despair and depression and then release them in order to love. When optimism is a defence against depression it is a form of denial. The deeper you go into unconscious fears the more genuine optimism is. We are more free the more we embrace the so-called ‘enemy’ within ourselves.

Critical Questions Relating to Free will and Creativity are:
How can we understand nature more deeply and live in a sustainable way?
Do mechanical technologies help or harm communities and the environment?
How does science and technology interface religions and spirituality?
How can we heal the aparent division between subject and object, inner and outer?
How can we bring premodern, modern, non-Western, Western and postmodern beliefs into a workable process?
How can different ways of governing live side by side?
What is creativity and what is its role in culture?
How do people find an identity amidst so many views and ways?
What can a universal vision be that incorporates all viewpoints?

It is time to realize that we, as human beings, have a unique job on earth: to spiritualize matter. Understanding how spirit becomes matter is part of the process. 

Rowena will give digital slide and talk on how the Love-Light becoming matrix-mind and aether-energy is a fundamental polarity and these in turn interact in what physicists called the “vacuum.” This vacuum is far from empty, but holds the potential seed-patterns for all of creation. Through a series of images, Rowena will show the role of Platonic forms, color, harmonics, from divine intelligence and love through what Vedic seers call tattwas (qualities) on multiple levels of subtlety to the substances we know made of atoms and molecules.

All levels of creation embody wholeness and all are holographic in that the imaginal reality of the One is in each and all. Perception is seen not only as a result of senses, but of a mental subtle energy, linked to a spiritual-intuitive reality.

The standing wave column of the human spine will be presented as a keyboard to be played with conscious tuning and art. The subtle energy chakras and network of nadis throughout the body enable a direct step-down transformation of the physical vehicle by every-present Love-Light.

In this time of radical transformation of humanity, we need to awaken now! Creativity is key in taping into the Source, and Rowena’s understanding of the creativity sixfold cycle will be introduced. We can co-create a new culture in harmony with cosmic laws. Visualizations and exercises will be given to assist in activating and balancing chakras to assist in spiritualizing matter through our deep inner alchemy.
