Mecca's Message for July 1998

The Illusionary Barrier

In the last message, we discussed the importance of a person who has the inner craving to become a master to develop the special gifts of his talent and use it as the means of enhancing their success in all fields of endeavor. When a person latches and understands his special gift, it naturally opens the door to all avenues in which man must function -- in fundamental knowledge, in comprehending, using and enjoying the whole scope of the creativity of nature and the cosmos, to share by his humanitarian efforts, and most importantly, truly understanding the needs of his fellow brothers and sisters who unite in the experience of the provisions of the planet and the uniqueness of their own being.

Strangely, most people have a burning desire but some illusionary barrier keeps them from moving forward to reach the attainment which they dream about. What is this barrier and what is the means to surpass and overcome it? Basically, its results are two-fold: fear and conformity.

Much can be revealed tot he person who wants to advance by using the prime examples from our American Master, Michael Jackson. He never doubted in his ability to create. He never even questioned it. He found it exciting to break through arbitrary boundaries of the creative thought process and arrive at elevating the manifestations of others in his chosen fields of his multi-talents. His questions to himself are different than those we ask. He doesn't ask himself IF he can do it, rather HoW he is going to create his ideas, beliefs and interpretation of his artistry. He says if something doesn't require you to expand and grow, he doesn't believe in it.

All of us have the attributes to create and break through the arbitrary boundaries which man has established and calls them "truth. The only aspect in using the foundation as the base for further exploration. The real fear is the feeling we lack the knowledge to pursue our aspirations. This is the illusionary barrier. When we are born, we have within us all the knowledge we will ever need. What we do need is the experience in education, knowledge and wisdom to tap into what has already resided in us and is patiently waiting for us to make the proper connection and apply what we have discovered and learned by the experiences we encountered. Naturally, the more we open ourselves up to experience, the more proficient we become. It is like building with blocks. As we put block upon block to build a skyscraper, the higher it becomes, the higher we can rise in obtaining our aspirations as we learn more and more about ourselves and the world.

Man was perfectly equipped to explore, both the physical and spiritual components of his being -- both the visible and the invisible. The physical comes from h is awareness and sensitivity to his environment, nature, and humanity. The invisible comes through by intuition, inspiration and thought. Michael Jackson believes that the imagination is the finest creative tool in advancing to new frontiers. When someone, on the stature of Mr. Jackson, uses his intuitive power and combines it with his imagination, we say, "oh, we could never do that!" If a master heard such a response, his comment would be, "And why not?"

one important aspect that man uses in limiting his creative resources is following the mass in his thinking or takes an idea so far away from its core, that it becomes useless, inappropriate, or without rhythm or sound reasoning. It becomes on the edge of being ridiculous. All artistic endeavors have a concept, message and purpose. It has a theme and will use many additives to support the main subject of the creator's intention. All the components must support the whole.

When we study the artistic works of the masters, of which Mr. Jackson has attained membership, we know that they had to study the past history of the generation which preceded them. In the arts, science, literature and philosophy, each master had to know the foundation of thought of the past ages. All of these creative geniuses took the core of the essence to higher and higher levels. Mr. Jackson explains it simply, "...To know more about your talent than anyone else alive whether it is a pool or a book...whatever it is, it is yours..."

The real arbitrary boundary that mankind must respect is not to destroy the core. In the universe it is to abide by the principles that govern the physical world and nature's manifestations. of course, one of the epitomes of the Creator's manifestations is man.

We at CAM Publishing had a huge task before us, to reveal the "Master of our Generation". Everywhere we turned, we found an imaginary arbitrary boundary which man believed we couldn't surmount. When we ran into such obstacles, we implored our intuitive resources, got a possible solution, and looked at one another and inquired if we should employ it. The answer always we like the one of the masters, "And why not?" We did, and here we are to share the most wonderful journey into self advancement, universal love, and understanding of the thought process of the master.

One comment Mr. Bob Jones made on his video, "The Godfather of Black Hollywood", is that "All of us must be willing to pass the baton".

The team of CAM Publishing and myself are anxious to assist you in helping you to develop your own individual talents and be vulnerable to share them with the world. Please accept an open invitation to write to us and we will gladly share our assistance with you.
