Centerlife - Happiness Through Nature's Design May 2019 | Page 21

You’re a child of the universe. No more, no less. It created you in your entirety—your
body, mind, and life. You are its product and are therefore subject to its laws and,
especially relevant to this discussion—its creative process. Thus, like all creations
in nature your life begins at, is perpetuated by, and culminates at centers.
What are the control centers guiding our day-to-day routines? There are many. They
are the numerous beginnings and starts of our lives. Such things as new thoughts,
experiences, interactions, and initiatives. They are also centers of mind related to
our needs, wants, and desires.
All dew drop-like seeds of the universe that once formed, grow into the larger
creations of our being—our relationships, houses, families, the furnishings and
products we buy, destinies, and the memories we form in others. They all reflect
the disposition of their maker—i.e. you. You being who you are deep down inside—
what you believe in and what you hold as dear and important.
To help illuminate how these dynamics operate in your life let’s look at a simple yet
profound example in nature. Imagine for a moment a spider and the things that
go into making up its life. It consists of three primary components—itself, its web,
and the resources flowing into it (i.e. wind and the insects it carries).
In the context of Centerpath; the spider is the center; the web is the field and the
resources drawn into it are ‘the parts’. Combined, the center and field create a well.
The flow of resources into the well completes the larger holistic creation.
Another way of saying this is a spider’s existence (i.e. it’s life) consists of not only
itself, but also the web it formed and the things the web captures. Forming a force
field about the spider, the web-field captures and coalesces things ultimately
creating a larger holistic organization about the center-spider.
This arrangement applies to all things in nature. Take for instance a river. Rivers
start at low points (i.e. at centers) which through gravity-fields, progressively grow
the river outward in every direction, capturing more and-more land. The water
coursing through the river system completes the larger, holistic structure.
It’s the same for solar systems—gravitational fields emanating from central stars
cause massive solar systems to form about them.
It even applies to classic family structure. Here the child is the center and the
mother is the field (i.e. she defines the agenda which is aligned to the needs of
the child). The man completes the larger organization through the act of ‘bringing
resources home’.
